  • I love The Action Lab! This episode was about the Mott Problem, which is the first time I’ve heard about it. The question is basically: why does the spherical wave function of a decaying alpha particle manifest itself as a single straight line when observed in a cloud chamber?#physics #sciencehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gY6Jr7tB2fU
  • Paul A. Murad’s exploration of “Gravity and Gravitational Wave Dynamics” starts with anomalies most physicists ignore and ends with a bold attempt at a new, wave-friendly gravity model with spin at its core. https://www.altpropulsion.com/exploring-gravity-gravitational-waves-and-anomalies/#physics #space #gravity #technology #science

  • ”From Newton to Maxwell to Einstein, nature shifts from clockwork to field to non-Euclidean higher dimensional geometry. Predictive power skyrockets as the common-sense picture buckles. Hence the growing split we feel between the instrumental success of “shut up and calculate” and the desire for intelligibility. This is precisely where a revived Romantic thread—Schelling’s polarities, Goethe’s metamorphosis, etc.—can help re-enchant the picture without discarding the momentous progress of physics.”—Matthew Segall, The Philosophical Implications of the Second Scientific Revolution#science #physics #newton #maxwell #einstein #shelling #goethe
  • Blown Away 💨 | 10 Observatories in 10 Weeks – Week 8Week 8 came in swinging — and the wind did not hold back.The marquee? Gone.The tents? Nearly airborne.John? Almost lost his dirty dishes to the gale.Between hanging onto everything that wasn’t bolted down and trying to keep our sanity, we still managed to get the last two roofs on and tick off nearly all the fiddly bits that had been holding us up.It was chaos, comedy, and construction all rolled into one windy finale.Only two weeks left — and the observatory field is finally starting to look ready for […]
  • 1/2 Notes on #UAP Discussions : Folks often want to reject the idea that the #Physics that applies everywhere in our #Universe provides a set of rails or boundaries for how advanced intelligent physical life evolves.The diversity of life on #Earth is exemplary wrt body plans and niches inhabited but only one has industry and builds space ships. Humanoid forms are likely the most common evolutionary seive endpoint for civilizations that survive the cosmic gauntlet and boldly go . Two arms, two-
