In November last year astronomers reported having discovered a large cold spot in the CMB radiation, coinciding with a void about one billion light years across in the Eridanus constellation, the biggest void in cosmos, or the hole in outer space as some named it. According to calculations, the respective volume of s... |

The Big Bang theory says that the universe began at T=0 as it suffered a sudden expansion into space-time, from a singularity-like object of zero volume but of infinite mass and density. So what was before that? Certainly, things do not just appear out of nowhere. Some kind of structure must have preceded the current... |

As they travel through space, black holes often bursts off radiation and cosmic flares, which, according to Virginia Tech Blacksburg researchers, could provide yet again with evidence that extra spatial dimensions exist. In the 1970s, British physicist Stephen Hawking revealed a solution to black holes, predicting th... |

Wormholes, time travel, white holes, extra spacial dimensions, parallel universes - all arose as solutions to Einstein's equations of general relativity, meaning theoretical physics predicts they should all be likely to exist in the fabric of space-time. But will we ever be able to open a wormhole into space-tim... |

Quantum suicide basically states one thing: it is possible that our lives may be depending on the state of a single subatomic particle. Quantum suicide represents a thought experiment proposed by a couple of physicists in the late 1980s in order to make a distinction between the quantum mechanics and the Everett many... |
