Two outstanding experiences created cracks in his armor of atheistic certainty and disrupted what he calls his “web of belief” based on modern science.

In modern physics, certain quantum processes are deemed fundamentally random. But are they for sure?

A tourist attraction, this giant boulder balances on a small surface area on the slope of a hill. It has neither slid down this hill, nor budged when attempts were made to move it.

While working on her bachelor’s degree in physics and astronomy, Michelle Kunimoto found four previously unknown planets.

For thousands of years, we have thought we knew what the universe – and everything in it – was made of: normal matter, the kind that make up the elements of the periodic table.

It seems that some forces, including gravity, may act instantaneously.

Did you know that there was a study conducted to see if someone from the future was here in our present time? Astrophysicists Robert Nemiroff and Teresa Wilson at Michigan Technology University did just that.

So the periodic table has expanded again with the addition late last year of four new superheavy elements, bringing the known total up to 118.

“Wave-particle duality” is simply the quantum “uncertainty principle” in disguise.

Physicists have set a quantum record by using photons to carry messages from electrons over a distance of 1.2 miles.
