First measurement of single-proton interactions with the MicroBooNE detector First measurement of single-proton interactions with the MicroBooNE detector Neutrinos are as mysterious as they are ubiquitous. One of the most abundant particles in the universe, they pass through most matter unnoticed. Their masses are so tiny that so far no experiment has succeeded in measuring...

Entanglement Theory may Reveal a Reality we can’t Handle Entanglement Theory may Reveal a Reality we can’t Handle What is entanglement theory? It is a Mystery, and here is a potential solution. But its implications are so paradigm shattering that most scientists refuse to believe it. Maybe we can’t handle the truth? Imagine you found...

This NASA Spacecraft Could Unveil the Origins of Life This NASA Spacecraft Could Unveil the Origins of Life NASA’s first asteroid sample return mission is ready for its long-awaited touchdown on asteroid Bennu. What will its samples reveal? NASA’s Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, and Security-Regolith Explorer, or OSIRIS-REx, was launched approximately 4 years ago...

How 4 fundamental constants reveal minimum scales where physics ends How 4 fundamental constants reveal minimum scales where physics ends How the Planck scale is derived from the most important fundamental constants in physics. This is where our physics ends. If you wanted to simulate the universe in a computer, you would need to enter...
