Ever since then, each pair of atoms has worked to find its way back to its other half… sometimes those atoms find each other again in the form of human beings. We call them soulmates." - Sarah A. Bailey"

Ernst Mach, the Austrian physicist-philosopher of the late 19th century, famously denied the reality of atoms. “Have you ever seen one?” he mockingly asked of atom advocates. Today many scientists speak with similar derision about the idea that the visible universe is not alone, but rather is only one of many universes—a single bubble in a froth of cosmic carbonation known as the multiverse. You can’t see these other universes, so the idea is not testable, multiverse opponents allege…

When two souls are meant to be together they begin an enchanted journey of meeting each other, because the universe itself wants to see them together.

If the universe is expaning evenly, how is it possible for galaxies to ever collide? Shouldn't they become more and more distant from each other as the universe expands?

The Heart Shaped Antennae Galaxies Image Credit & Copyright: Kent E. Biggs Explanation: Are these two galaxies really attracted to each other? Yes, gravitationally, and the result appears as an enormous iconic heart — at least for now. Pictured is the pair of galaxies cataloged as NGC 4038 and NGC 4039,known as the Antennae Galaxies. Because they are only 60 million light years away, close by intergalactic standards, the pair is one of the best studied interacting galaxies on the night…

A recent research in physics has become a widely discussed topic in the scientific community. Howard Wiseman of Griffith University in Australia led a team that has developed a new, groundbreaking theory.The theory suggests that several other un…
