In this book, we will break through the confusion and reveal to you the most important ideas of quantum physics, told through the amazing true story of just four bizarre discoveries–many of which were made completely by accident!

Behind the familiar surfaces of the telephone, radio, and television lies a sophisticated and intriguing body of knowledge known as information theory. This is the theory that has permitted the rapid development of all sorts of communication, from color television to the clear transmission of photographs from the vicinity of Jupiter. Even more revolutionary progress is expected in the future.

Albert Einstein described Relativity as a "popular explosion" of his famous theory. Written in 1916, it introduced the lay audience to the remarkable perspective which had overturned theoretical physics. Einstein's genius was to express this perspective in understandable terms.

If Bigfoot is an Ancient Primate or an Undiscovered Human, why is the Creature Seen Around Balls of Light and Other Paranormal Phenomena? Thousands of people have witnessed bigfoot and other strange creatures for decades in North America and worldwide. In many cases, these encounters have been followed up and documented, including physical evidence by trained investigators. Is bigfoot an undiscovered primate, a relic hominid, or an alien species? And why are so many encounters also filled with unusual and extraordinary phenomena like luminosities, time slips, and telepathic interactions? ...

The Wonders of Radium by Maynard Shipley is a captivating scientific exploration of one of the most fascinating discoveries of the early 20th century. Written in a time of scientific revolution, this work explains the origin, nature, and wide-ranging applications of radium, a radioactive element famously discovered by Marie and Pierre Curie. Shipley skillfully translates complex scientific principles into accessible language, detailing radium's powerful effects—from revolutionizing medical treatments, such as early cancer therapies, to its curious industrial and agricultural uses.

The Entangled Mind is the third volume of Wes Jamroz’s series on cosmic consciousness. In this book, the author discusses the state of modern physics. Today’s physics faces challenges on several fronts. These challenges are related to the nature of the big bang, elementary particles, dark matter, black holes, and some seemingly mysterious aspects of quantum mechanics. The author shows that physicists have to accept that “consciousness” is the fundamental parameter without which it is impossible to construct a consistent theory of matter. Furthermore, he demonstrates that the ...

Choć na pierwszy rzut oka wyładowanie atmosferyczne z rzeką nie ma nic wspólnego, to łączy je wyjątkowa zdolność do transportu materii i energii. Co dokładnie ma wspólnego piorun z naczyniami krwionośnymi i czemu w zasadzie sieci transportowe są nam do życia niezbędne? Wreszcie, jak sieci dostosowują się do konkretnych warunków i wymaganych od nich funkcji? O tym wszystkim opowiada Stanisław Żukowski ‒ fizyk i doktorant z Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego i Uniwersytetu Paryskiego. Rozmowę prowadzi Maks Walewski.

There are big expectations for large-scale growth in nuclear energy capacity over the coming years. That's good news for established technology providers and their partners. But new capacity in new locations means that there are going to be big opportunities (and challenges) emerging. This was the focus for World Nuclear Association’s first World Nuclear Supply Chain event, held in Poland. There were more than 300 attendees from 27 countries, including government and industry delegations from Canada, China, Japan, Poland, South Korea and Sweden. As well as extensive networking ...

⚛️Miracles from the Void: Quantum Mechanics and the Infinite In Rabbi Shlomo Ezagui's article, 'Miracles from the Void: Nothingness, Infinity, and Quantum Mechanics,' he synthesizes Jewish mystical teachings with modern quantum physics. Ezagui references the Tanya, a foundational text of Chabad Hasidism, to explain how God's infinite presence underlies all of existence, even what appears to be empty space and time. He then connects this concept to quantum mechanics' understanding of 'nothingness' not as an absolute void, but as a dynamic, energy-filled quantum vacuum from which particles ...

The universe is a vast, mysterious, and incredibly cool place. It’s filled with things so strange and wonderful they can make your head spin. From the tiniest particles buzzing around beneath the surface of reality to the largest structures stretching across billions of light-years, the cosmos is packed with surprises. And the more we learn, the more we realize just how much we don’t know. When you glance up at the night sky, you’re not just looking at stars. You’re peering into the deep past, through millions or even billions of years.

Explore how its influence shaped Earth's environment, stabilized its seasons, and played a pivotal role in the emergence of life. Travel through history to...

Albert Einstein hated quantum mechanics. He called it "spooky action at a distance" and spent decades trying to prove it was wrong. But Niels Bohr fought back, defending the Copenhagen interpretation, which claimed that quantum reality doesn’t exist until we measure it. The Bohr-Einstein debates were some of the most legendary arguments in science, filled with clever thought experiments, deep philosophy, and a battle over the nature of reality itself. Did Bohr really defeat Einstein? Or was Einstein’s skepticism a clue that quantum mechanics is still incomplete? This episode unpacks the ...

In this week, we'll be covering:Simulating the Universe’s First Light with SKA-Low Scientists created an advanced simulation of what the SKA-Low radio telescope will detect when it starts observing the early universe. The project focuses on capturing ultra-faint 21-cm hydrogen signals from the Cosmic Dawn and the Epoch of Reionization—eras when the first stars and galaxies lit up the cosmos after a long dark age. This simulation includes realistic foreground interference, technical noise, and cosmic signals, helping researchers refine data analysis techniques before SKA-Low becomes ...

Send us a textThis week on the podcast, Nathan sits down with Nigel from DK Heat Recovery to discuss an innovative approach to energy efficiency.Many businesses across the UK, like meat and food processing plants and butchers, rely on cold storage rooms kept cool by heat pump systems. These facilities also require significant amounts of hot water for their washing-down processes. Similarly, gyms use heat pump systems to maintain a comfortable temperature for workouts and need plenty of hot water for showers.Traditionally, the heat generated by these cooling systems is simply expelled into the ...
