Scientists find an unexpected byproduct that suggests a whole new type of exotic black hole

Posted by in categories: cosmology, particle physics

The study suggests these primordial black holes could have absorbed free quarks and gluons, making them different from typical black holes formed by collapsing stars. They would be incredibly small, yet could account for much of the universe’s dark matter.


For decades, scientists have struggled to explain the lack of visible matter in the universe.

Raphael Bousso — Is Information Fundamental?

Posted by in categories: particle physics, quantum physics

Watch more interviews on the deep laws of nature: https://shorturl.at/P6tIr Does information work at the deep levels of physics, including quantum theory, undergirding the fundamental forces and particles? But what is the essence of information—describing how the world works or being how the world works. There is a huge difference. Could information be the most basic building block of reality?

New technique gives robotic faces living human skin

Posted by in categories: bioengineering, biotech/medical, health, robotics/AI

Robots with human skin.


In a breakthrough that isn’t at all creepy, scientists have devised a method of anchoring living human skin to robots’ faces. The technology could actually have some valuable applications, beyond making Westworld-like scenarios a reality.

Two years ago, Prof. Shoji Takeuchi and colleagues at the University of Tokyo successfully covered a motorized robotic finger with a bioengineered skin made from live human cells.

Comet will be visible in night sky for first time in nearly 70 years

Posted by in category: space

Astronomy lovers, a comet will be visible in the night sky this summer! Although you may need binoculars or a telescope to view it, it’ll be the first time this comet has been visible since 1956, according to Star Walk.

Comet 13P/Olbers will make its return to the night sky this July, marking the first time in 69 years that it’s been able to be seen from Earth. According to experts at Star Walk, while faint, its sky placement and distance to the sun will allow it to be best visible around June 30, which is this Sunday.

Those interested in seeing the comet will have to look west about two hours after sunset.

Exploring the Fabric of the Universe: Hadrons to Cosmological Constant

Posted by in categories: particle physics, quantum physics

Within the vast tapestry of the universe, where the microscopic building blocks of matter intertwine with the cosmic dance of galaxies, lies a story of profound discovery. Venture into a realm where the laws of physics as we know them are both challenged and confirmed, where the invisible forces that hold the very fabric of our reality together are brought into the light. This narrative isn’t born from the pages of a science fiction novel but emerges from the cutting-edge explorations at the heart of quantum physics. At this frontier, scientists embark on a rigorous inquiry to understand the origins of particle mass, revealing insights that connect the infinitesimal to the immense, from the atoms in our bodies to the distant stars.
