I don't like Beatles covers as a rule. It was actually more laid back than I thought.

That was so awful it was great!

A nice cover and tribute from a talented singer and musician.

If we are alone, it seems like an awful waste of space..... If it turns out there is a lot of life, say per galaxy I would not be surprised. The universe is good at making complex molecules and there may be more than one way of getting to "life." A recent publication...

Plenty of guys on here will explain it better like @Ibix or @PeroK I will add that the scientists of the time did not expect light to behave the way it did, if you look into some of the experiments. The community was taken where the evidence led them, expectations and postulates are not the...

The FTL neutrino was ruled out due to an error as you said. The speed of light is a physical property of the universe, an empirical property like the mass of a proton. It cannot be anything else.
