Magic numbers appear in multitud of best seller books and movies, but the mathematics behind them is astonishing. The Golden Ratio between two quantities states that their ratio is the same as the ratio of their sum to the larger of the two quantities. This divine proportion was known since the Classical Greece, and has been used for many different purposes until today. Science proves once more that these kind of wonders repeat themselves even in the most hidden corners of our universe.
Have you heard about the "twins paradox"? Let me refresh your memory: ´In physics, the twin paradox is a thought experiment in special relativity involving identical twins, one of whom makes a journey into space in a high-speed rocket and returns home to find that the twin who remained on Earth has aged more´. Well, we are having a chance now to check whether Einstein was right or not. Check out this page and let´s hope for the best!
What is the first thing which comes to you mind if I tell you to think about LIGHT? Probably you would imagine a very sunny day when the light of the sun illuminates everything. For those of you a little bit more sciencefreaks, you could think in Einstein and his famous equation. Or about time traveling, only possible if you could travel faster than light... but have you seen LIGHT? Can you describe it? I hope you enjoy this video because it is the first time a beam of light is
caught by a camera in such a way. Want to join the trip? Can you imagine that you don´t need glasses to look at your screen anymore? This will become feasible very soon thanks to the research of two teams in USA. They have created a new algorithm, and together with a bit of image processing, the results are astonishing. Check it out!
Virtual reality is a "reality" more than ever. Some years ago Google surprised us with the "Google Glass", kind of glasses with an embedded computer which you could use by walking in the street to see other human beings as in "The Sims", where all kind of information is provided instantaneously. Now the other big brands try to make a step further developing new devices for virtual reality. Have a look to this article which shows a comparison of the different alternatives available nowadays. Because, again, the FUTURE, is now...
For all those fans of the science of movies like "Interstellar" and dreamers of a near future being able to explore far away in our universe, enjoy the reality of Stark Trek thanks to NASA.
Dear freaks, I want to inform you today about a revolution in medical physics. In the future, a sharp image of the inside of our bodies will be just a matter of a blink. Another step into the science of tomorrow!
Click on the picture below to know more.. Can you imagine a material where water just.. rebound! Scientist are developing new materials where this becomes true. Have a look to this video! It is an incredible story, but here we can see that the hope is the last thing you lose :)
