The argument for time diation really are a perfect example of an argument for a conceptual mind mathematical logic is not required. Look it up on...
They're really two approaches to the same thing GR sees it as a warping of space time and in classical physics two paricles in a field exchange...
Its true the vacuum is far from empty it has a permitivity, a permeability, zero point energy density and shape. For me I separate the shape from...
Well i mean it has a framework and it has a lot more stuff in it than we can see. But when people talk about fabric, its an absract mathematical...
If you want to maintain a set of traits then inbreeding is good as Mike stated. However for genetic diversity then its better to mix and match....
Wow that covers a huge area. Well the 'just keeps moving' part comes from the 3rd law of thermodynamics which basically says that you cant get to...
Enough mass to keep accelertaing in its expansion, as it appears to be doing. There is evidence that neutron stars may be a superfluid, this is...
Helps if your fairly good at maths. I question whether QM is really understandable with out maths, some of its wierdest features are mathematicaly...
From the mess that is cosmology at the moment we have the concepts of dark energy and dark matter, no one knows what any of these things are, but...
Well bouyancy is an upward force that you feel when your in a fluid, not necessarliy a liquid, though probably water for a submarine. This force...
Im terrible at maths, well for what I do, I like to think I stand up quite well in general. I always prefered trying to picture what was...
Well philosophically its 'interesting' but on a day to day operational level it does pretty well and its biggest everyday problem is its...
The macroscopic laws of physics are what you get when the quantum laws are averaged over a large humber of events. Take a neutron star, a...
Current theory does not fit with parsimony. If black holes exist then QM is at best incomplete, given that black holes violate the first sentence...

http://www.newscientist.com/channel/fundamentals/mg18925423.600.html Heres the most recent one i know of, I thought it sounded quite good as well.
Its true that its not certain what happens inside a black hole, but there are alternative theories to black holes themselves. Which are built on...
Mind experiments are a branch of theoretical physics and like all theoretical physics its a very powerful tool if your starting points (Ansatz -...
Einstein performed a mind experiment (a close run thing but luckly he was good enough to pull it off) where he pictured two people in two inertial...
I still dont understand why people would go into science for the money given that its about the worst paid job that you can go into direct from...
