Well, that does bear on what a brain potentially might be able to potentially understand, and one way to describe that would be in what they potentially are able to do in science. In any case, indeed that does not preclude the human mind given enough time to go far beyond where we now are. An...

What do members speculate, using restrained imagination of what may be possible, may be the highest level of knowledge and ability possible for an ancient race of artificial intelligence entities millions of years evolved that have long mastered whatever organic brain consciousness is and gone...

Good questions making me think haha while this shelter in place reality is going on. Indeed, it is true there are different perspectives on how life started and none are convincing enough to eliminate alternate ideas even if others bothered to try. Well if it was that easy to start life in...

As a retired senior now that worked decades in hi tech corp offices and labs with large numbers of others often sick with head colds and influenza viruses during winter, have managed to only actually catch about 3 or 4 illnesses per decade that is about 10 times less than normal. At times like...

The decades long search to discover how life might have arisen on Earth has been looking increasingly less probable in recent decades as the once derided various ideas of panspermia rise. That is because the time between heavy bombardment when the Earth was likely a hot molten surface and the...

With respiratory viral diseases, the way virion reach the bronchial tubes and then lungs is usually from tiny colonized locations that then expand in the upper respiratory tract, especially in the sinuses because that tract is about the only areas of the body with temperatures below the normal...

Web searching on destroying virion on viral masks, did not find much more solid information than the 70C (158F) linked study that has been out for weeks and is suspect as that is a rather low temperature. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00430-004-0219-0 Instead read some Korean...

Wednesday morning re-watched a streaming version of Blade Runner 1982 that I had not viewed in at least a couple decades then in the afternoon watched Blade Runner 2049 at a local theater in 2D. My overall impression is it is one of the finest science fiction movies I've experienced. Leaving...

About 10:18am Monday August 21, 2017 from Riverfront Park within a large crowd in Salem, Oregon at the totality exit stage. Sony SEL55210 zoom at 210mm on A6000 , Aperture Priority, F14, Exposure Compensation -3, ISO 200, 1/5 second, Spot Auto Focus on sun/moon edge, on tripod. Cropped to...

First let me relate that my understanding of quantum physics is rather shallow. What I'm looking for below is not some abstract mathematically response but rather a more spatially conceptual answer. Theory predicts every second supposedly 70 billion solar neutrinos pass through every...

Yesterday I saw Brownlee's press conference for the Stardust NASA mission on one of our public use cable TV channels. All pretty fascinating space material a lot of scientists are eager to analyze. I just recently read Brownlee's well received book of a year or three ago, "Rare Earth"...

I would tend to think those issues are mainly a matter of the mathematical context space/time/matter is described as though doesn't necessarily invalidate the ideas. ...David

Might multi universes overlap? Might there be limitless space to infinity in which Big Bangs unsynchronized in time overlap and have done so through eternity past? What is it about Big Bang theory that makes impossible the inifinite of all space versus the limit of that space which has...
