Absolutely empty—that is how most of us envision the #vacuum. Yet, in reality, it is filled with an energetic flickering: the #quantumfluctuations.

Experts are currently preparing a #laserexperiment intended to verify these vacuum fluctuations in a novel way, which could potentially provide clues to new laws in #physics.

#Christian leaders, and people in general, use to say that #Jesus Christ forgave all #sins and sinners.
That is not true.
There's a sin, and a kind of #sinners which/who Jesus did not forgive, and on the contrary cursed: the #hypocrites (whom at the time were called pharisees, and were erased by the Romans 70 years later).

In 2017, astronomers detected the gravitational waves from colliding neutron stars for the first time: a kilonova. Enormous amounts of heavy metals were detected in the light from the explosion, and astronomers continued to watch the expanding debris cloud. Researchers have created a new simulation that recreates the merger, second by second, as it happened, giving insights into all the high-energy mayhem and heavy elements formation in the catastrophic event.

The main message of this book is that this [bringing together quantum theory with general relativity] requires embracing the ideas that time is real and laws evolve.
