Some days, you might feel like a pretty substantial person. Maybe you have a lot of friends, or an important job, or a really big car.
But it might humble you to know that all of those things — your friends, your office, your really big car, you yourself, and everything in this incredible, vast universe — are almost entirely, 99.9999999%, empty space.
Here’s the deal: As I previously wrote in a story for the particle physics publication Symmetry, the size of an atom is governed by the average location of its electrons — how much space there is between the nucleus and the atom’s amorphous outer shell. Nuclei are around 100,000 times smaller than the atoms they’re housed in.
If the nucleus were the size of a peanut, the atom would be about the size of a baseball stadium. If we lost all the dead space inside our atoms, we would each be able to fit into a particle of dust, and the entire human race would fit into the volume of a sugar cube.(more…)
When we see a string, we are seeing it from our dimensional viewpoint so we don’t see the contents of the string until we look at it from another perspectus.
Clifford Johnson discusses it here with a cell phone as an example:
In order to understand where this may lead, let’s take a blank piece of paper. When we look at that blank piece of paper from its side, it looks like a straight line.
Now if we flip the piece of paper to its side, we see what the paper actually contains, which are again lines, perhaps in intricate patterns such as a fractal.(more…)
In the past century science – and especially the traditional physics have had to face a great challenge: When they started to use the newly found, advanced technology, that made more research possible on the subatomic level, then it turned out that the particles, that make up any atom are far from being particles of matter. There were rather behaving like vibrations.
Dr. Norman knew this near 60 years ago: In Infinite Concept of Cosmic Creation he wrote:…..[quote] p.54.
“In our world we can roughly divide the expression of energy into two different fields. We might say that there is the so-called static or the atomic form and there is also the dynamic or the kinetic form. In the static form we find these tiny structures which the scientist calls atoms. In the dynamic or kinetic form we find the energy moving in the different forms and dimensions which are necessary to our various ways of life. In the past and especially during the last fifty years, the thinkers and the savants of science have labored and struggled for long periods of time to try to orient or compromise their thoughts into finding the answer to mass and energy. It was only during the last few years of Einstein’s life that this foremost scientist came to the general conclusion that there was no such thing as mass and that we could, in a more abstract way, resolve all things into pure energy.”
This is why traditional physics is troubled by the fact, that they cannot define of their size location, mass or weight – because vibrations do not have these features. But they do have frequency, amplitude, and direction, they have a waveform. How is this possible, how could scientists miss this?(more…)
A NEW scientific theory which claims an almost infinite number of alternative universes are lined up alongside each other like a packet of cheese slices, is being tested by the Large Hadron Collider.
By Paul Baldwin
Scientists are searching for proof of the baffling ‘brane’ theory (short for membrane) which says a series of ‘two-dimensional’ universes may be only microscopic distances from ours – and they may be contactable, or even act as doorways from one to the other.
The brane concept is a spin-off from the equally mind-bending string theory, which says a series of almost incomprehensibly small vibrating strings are the substance behind everything from light to gravity to mass – everything in the universe basically.
Numerous studies have corroborated the holographic model in studies of memory and perception. The question of how and where memories are stored was what led Carl Pribram on the road to formulating his holographic model. In the 1940’s it was thought that memories were stored at specific locations in the brain. There had been research conducted in the 1920’s which seemed to support this view. Researcher Wilder Penfield had offered convincing evidence that specific memories had specific locations in the brain. In a series of experiments, Penfield stimulated parts of the brain of patients and noticed that specific areas evoked certain specific memories.
In 1946, Pribram went to work for physiologist Carl Lashley at the Yerkes Institute of Primate Biology. Lashley had trained rats to perform complicated tasks which involved working their way through mazes. He then removed portions of their brain in an effort to try and remove the area that had the memory of the maze. No matter how much brain tissue he removed, the rats still retained the memory of how to run the maze. This indicated that memory itself was not localized but was somehow spread throughout the brain as a whole. No process existed at the time that would explain this. Around 1965, Pribram read an article describing the creation of the hologram and the answer became quite clear.
Holograms depend on the interference patterns that occur when the patterns of two or more waves ripple through each other. It was discovered that electrical impulses travel through the brain in waveforms that cause interference patterns, further substantiating the holographic nature of the brain.(more…)
If humans weren’t educated to ignore, in fact, to fail to observe, event sequences and coincidences of an improbable nature they would be subject to a seemingly impossible mystery. And this is why it is easy for scientists to ignore, or turn a blind eye to all such phenomena—to say the least it disturbs the ego. Whenever science encounters anomalies after a theory has been established the anomalies are either invalidated or assumed that they will resolve as the theory is applied further.
The particular anomalies we are interested in are improbable coincidences that we sometimes call meaningful coincidences. If scientists became more aware of the extent to which these meaningful coincidences (synchronicities) occur in anyone’s life, new theories would be required and sought. Science does not recognise synchronicities (special orders), only randomness, that is, coincidences with different degrees of probability.
What we are claiming here is that these event coincidences are synchronistic—a term we use when referring to ‘coincidences’ which are actually connected. This simply means an unseen factor has entered into the equation. This hidden factor already has the events associated—even as one whole. We might just remind the reader at this early stage that the wave function in quantum physics can handle this. If the two events are represented each by a different wave packet, they can be linked by resonance, such that a single resultant wave packet can represent the unity or wholeness of the two events. (more…)
In quantum physics the wave function (denoted by the Greek psi symbol) is sometimes referred to as mathematical fiction. When Schrodinger developed his famous wave equation, it was a puzzle as to what psi really represented. It was concluded that the wave function depicted probabilities—and not energy.
Here we shall be using the wave function to mean a packet of vibrations as in current quantum mechanics but that in our case we envision everything imaginable in the universe as made up of waves. Any specific thing whatsoever is not just represented by, but is a group of oscillations given by sine waves. These groups of sine waves representing all phenomena, such as a particle, an atom, planet, galaxy, objects, a thought, word, concepts or ideas, mind, etc. may be immensely complex, comprising waves in fractal groups extending into higher dimensions, in which their phase relationship is of key importance. These wave functions are holographic and have a precise geometry. This geometry is information.
Every single wave function is a packet of information. The vibrations of the wave function are energy but also probabilities given by sub-sine wave groupings. The resonant linkages between them will vary in strength giving different probability weighting—no different from the principle of habit patterns. (Learning occurs by mode locking, that is, entraining separate oscillations—as in associating.) (more…)
The discovery that everything is made from atoms has been referred to as the greatest scientific breakthrough in history. As scientists delved deep into the atom, they unravelled nature’s most shocking secrets and abandoned traditional beliefs, leading to a whole new science which still underpins modern physics, chemistry and biology, and maybe even life itself. Nuclear physicist Professor Jim Al-Khalili tells the story of this discovery and the brilliant minds behind the breakthrough.
The second part of Professor Jim Al-Khalili’s three-part documentary about the basic building block of our universe, the atom. He shows how, in our quest to understand the tiny atom, we unravelled the mystery of how the universe was created – a story with dramatic twists and turns, taking in world-changing discoveries like radioactivity, the atom bomb and the Big Bang, as the greatest brains of the 20th century competed to answer the biggest questions of all.
The final part of Professor Jim Al-Khalili’s documentary series about the basic building block of our universe, the atom. He explores how studying the atom forced us to rethink the nature of reality itself, discovers how there might be parallel universes in which different versions of us exist and finds out that ’empty’ space isn’t empty at all. Al-Khalili shows how the world we think we know turns out to be a tiny sliver of an infinitely weirder universe than which we could have conceived.(more…)
“You have stated that the sun does not radiate light or heat. I should infer, therefore, that the sun, like this earth, is a world, perhaps having substantially similar physical characteristics, and only differing from this earth in the fact of being older and larger by growth, as earthly parents are older and larger by growth than their infant progeny. Am I correct?”
“Precisely.”
“How, then, do you account for the phenomena of light and heat which seem to be developed by the sun’s rays as soon as he rises above the horizon?”
“You, of course, understand, from what I have already said, that the sun, being a living organ, composed of matter, is radiating constantly an emanation of magnetism, which, having a natural affinity for space, penetrates space as far as his influence is capable of making itself felt. Of course a certain amount of this magnetism strikes that side of the earth which is presented to the sun.”(more…)

For nearly a hundred years, research into the cause and cure for cancer has been widely funded by charities and governments, worldwide. The amount of money collected for research must be staggering. But, pales in comparison to the enormous cost of conventional treatment; which incidentally, have an atrocious statistical cure rate. There’s little wonder, main stream allopathic medicine hasn’t found a cure for the most profitable disease on the planet.
Cancer is a product of our changing electromagnetic environment. Our technology is affecting the natural healing vibrational forces of the Universe and more importantly, our bodies.(more…)
Perhaps the greatest obstacle to man’s achievement of his dream of space travel has been a factor which has been given the name of Gravity. Its ‘discover’ is usually credited, in elementary school test books, to a seventeenth century mathematician and physicist, Sir Isaac Newton. Actually, of course, every man ‘discovers’ gravity soon after birth; and the stone age man who first rolled a boulder down upon the head of the cave bear who was attempting to scramble up the cliff after him, was making a practical application of this force. It was, however, Sir Isaac Newton who first made a complete mathematical analysis of the subject. His conclusions were compatible with subsequent observation and test, and were virtually unchallenged until the dawn of the era of relativity.
In brief, his conclusions were that gravity is a quality which is inherent in all matter, and that it manifests itself as a mutual attraction between all bodies of matter. The value of this attraction between any two given bodies was said to be directly proportionate to the product of their mass, and inversely proportionate to the square of the distance between them. The attraction between the earth and an object near its surface is known as the weight of the object. The difficulty with the statement that the force varies inversely as the square of the distance lies in the implication that if the distance becomes zero, the force should become infinite. Thus it would at first seem that a man standing or lying upon the surface of the earth would be one of two bodies between whom the distance was zero, therefore, the weight of the man should be infinitely great. The reply to this assumption is that the Force acts as though it originated at the center of the mass, called the ‘center of gravity’, and that the man on the surface of the earth is still some four thousand miles from its center of gravity. This explanation, however, creates a new problem in that, if we accept it literally, we must assume that if there were a well or shaft extending to the center of the earth, and if a man descended this shaft, his weight would increase as he approached the center of gravity, becoming infinite as he reached it. Actually, of course, his weight would decrease, becoming zero when his center of gravity coincided with that of the earth. So we are forced to the further explanation that gravity is inherent, not in ‘bodies,’ but in particles of matter, and since a man at the center of the earth would have an equal number of particles attracting him from every direction, the resultant of the forces would be zero.(more…)
The father of electronic television, Dr. Philo T. Farnsworth, found the practical key toward achieving hot fusion. He demonstrated his hot fusion reactor before several highly qualified groups of analysts. They saw the system in operation and yet testify that it really worked.
In a brief biographic sketch, it must be recalled that Dr. Farnsworth is the true father of electronic television. He is one of the most conspicuously disregarded inventors of the Twentieth Century. In 1927, the young high school student received the entire working design for the electronic television system in a single insightful ray. Scrawled out on a scrap of notepaper and saved by his high school physics teacher, the very drawing became the document which sealed his name in later court proceedings.
His patents are remarkably advanced for their time. His ability to design electron tubes of extraordinary form allowed him to create incredibly new electronic components yet used by the military. No precedent had been set for electronic television. The system parts had to be invented. Proper design of the electronic television system required that every piece, every tube, every component be researched, tested, and implemented. In a rapid deployment of new designs, Dr. Farnsworth and his dedicated group of researchers designed, built, and implemented each part. During this arduous process, they learned how to manage the very production of their own parts, the television industry having developed among their members. This later enabled a small factory to be established for the manufacture of the various Farnsworth television systems.(more…)
As the Earthman plans voyages into outer space, he is faced to a certain degree with problems comparable in many ways to those of the ancient mariner, for throughout space there are definite natural lanes, just as the oceans have their currents. Our pilots have found “rivers in space” above our planet as they were flying at certain altitudes. These were located by chance, but since have been described in numerous articles published in aviation magazines. Our scientists and our airmen are aware of various types of currents moving through the atmosphere, comparable to those of the oceans. We will find similar conditions throughout all space, between planets and systems.
As they studied such conditions in the atmospheres encompassing their own planets, inhabitants of other worlds were able to develop their first ships enabling them to venture into outer space. Since that time space has become as safe and simple for them to travel as the atmosphere through which our planes fly from place to place on Earth. They quickly realized that if they were to go out and return safely home, they could not burden their ships with heavy loads of fuel, but would have to learn how to use Nature’s energy for their propulsion power. So it was along these lines that their scientists worked, and finally succeeded.
To understand more clearly the magnetic propulsion of interplanetary spacecraft, we must first consider geomagnetism, the magnetic sphere of influence which surrounds every planet and every sun, filling all space.
We can liken Earth’s geomagnetic field to the series of circular ripples created by dropping a pebble into a pond. These circular ripples move outward from the center point where the pebble was dropped; expanding in size, but diminishing in force as they move.(more…)
In his classic Raja Yoga, Swami Vivekananda gave the following account of Akasha:
“It is the omnipresent, all-penetrating existence. Everything that has form, everything that is the result of combination, is evolved out of this Akasha. It is the Akasha that becomes the air, that becomes the liquids, that becomes the solids; it is the Akasha that becomes the sun, the earth, the moon, the stars, the comets; it is the Akasha that becomes the human body, the animal body, the plants, every form that we see, everything that can be sensed, everything that exists. It cannot be perceived; it is so subtle that it is beyond all ordinary perception; it can only be seen when it has become gross, has taken form. At the beginning of creation there is only this Akasha. At the end of the cycle; the solid, the liquids, and the gases all melt into the Akasha again, and the next creation similarly proceeds out of this Akasha.”
In the traditional conception Akasha is an all-encompassing medium that underlies all things; the medium that becomes all things. It is real, but so subtle that it cannot be perceived until it becomes the many things that populate the manifest world. According to the contemporary Indian sage Radja Deekshithar we can experience Akasha: our normal senses do not register it, but we can reach it through spiritual practice. The ancient Rishis reached Akasha through a disciplined, spiritual way of life, and through yoga. That is why they could describe its nature in words, making it an essential element of the philosophy and mythology of India.(more…)
Australian researchers have come up with a non-invasive ultrasound technology that clears the brain of neurotoxic amyloid plaques – structures that are responsible for memory loss and a decline in cognitive function in Alzheimer’s patients.
If a person has Alzheimer’s disease, it’s usually the result of a build-up of two types of lesions – amyloid plaques, and neurofibrillary tangles. Amyloid plaques sit between the neurons and end up as dense clusters of beta-amyloid molecules, a sticky type of protein that clumps together and forms plaques.
Neurofibrillary tangles are found inside the neurons of the brain, and they’re caused by defective tau proteins that clump up into a thick, insoluble mass. This causes tiny filaments called microtubules to get all twisted, which disrupts the transportation of essential materials such as nutrients and organelles along them, just like when you twist up the vacuum cleaner tube.
As we don’t have any kind of vaccine or preventative measure for Alzheimer’s – a disease that affects 343,000 people in Australia, and 50 million worldwide – it’s been a race to figure out how best to treat it, starting with how to clear the build-up of defective beta-amyloid and tau proteins from a patient’s brain. Now a team from the Queensland Brain Institute (QBI) at the University of Queensland have come up with a pretty promising solution for removing the former.(more…)
