Recent discoveries in quantum physics and in cosmology shed new light on how mind interacts with matter. These discoveries compel acceptance of the idea that there is far more than just one universe and that we constantly interact with many of these “hidden” universes.(1)In 1954‚ a young Princeton University doctoral candidate named Hugh Everett III came up with a radical idea: That there exist parallel universes‚ exactly like our universe. (2)These universes are all related to ours; indeed‚ they

Samantha Weir NSET 111 Take Home Essay February 16‚ 2014 Our Universe was created billions of years ago. We have no way of knowing exactly how this happened‚ nor how or if it will end. The creation of the universe is greatly debated religiously and scientifically. The future of our universe is a popular topic‚ but still remains a mystery. There are many theories as to what will happen to the universe and factors to be accounted for. The fact that we do not have the ability to travel into the

Dark energy what is it? Dark energy is a unknown energy said to take up 70 percent of the universe. The energy is a repulsive gravitational effect that is causing the universe to accelerate out-ward. No one knows exactly what dark energy is or where it comes from. Dark Energy is a new idea. Little is known about dark energy‚ yet it takes up a huge amount if the universe. Scientist were able to show the universe was expanding at an accelerated rate by measuring the red-shift of an object by comparing

One of the most intellectual and renowned scientist of the world‚ Albert Einstein‚ gave his Theory of Gravitation called General Theory of Relativity in the year 1916. This theory is still considered to be an irreplaceable theory and poses challenges while learning. It is no where simplicity‚ it is to complex. In this theory Einstein had a problem with the static universe‚ his theory somethings stating that universe a whole would not remain static‚ gravity should play the role of attracting the things

The Different Theories Of How The Universe Was Created. There has always been a question that no one has ever been able to answer‚ and probably will not answer for a very long time. This question is how did the universe‚ and more specifically‚ earth‚ become to be what it is today. For hundreds of years many people were convinced that a higher power created the earth‚ that their god just willed earth to become‚ and it became. There are many different theories as to how and why the universe came

The Expanding Universe Objective: To interpret a model demonstrating the theories of our expanding universe. Hypothesis: I believe the two marked points on the balloon will be farther apart each time the balloon is blown up. Materials: * 1 un-inflated balloon (when inflated‚ the balloon should have a round shape and be approximately the size of a soccer ball) * Markers * About 30 cm (12 inches) of string or yarn * Ruler or tape measure Procedures: 1. Place an un-inflated

The Big Bang theory states that all the matter that is in the universe was once in a very small amount of space with infinite temperature‚ pressure‚ and density. This theory is well supported and there are many reason for it’s support. One main reason is that no one really has a clue and The Big Bang Theory seems far fetched but more reasonable than any other ideas that there are out there. Some of the important thing to know about the big bang to understand are the beginning and the few seconds
