Could you please explain a little more detail. If I wanted to measure the time distortion, how much distortion does the theory predict and is this measurable with existing capabilities?

Has/Can gravity wave time distortions be measured to any degree of accuracy as does LISA measures space distortions? If not, why not?

I have read that a shark has great sensitivity to smelling blood from a large distance. In an open, calm sea, just how fast can blood molecules diffuse through sea water for a shark to detect??

From what PAllen said that a photon of light does not have a reference frame and another Forum I read saying that the concept of space or time don't apply to a photon, then why is the concept of quantum entanglement so mysterious?

The big bang supposedly originated from an infinitely dense singularity of space/time. The concept of infinitely dense is an artifact from our current perception of how immense our universe is today and how spread-out space/time is. However, if I were present in the reference frame of that...

Can you provide a reference for further reading. Thanks.

I have been trying to understand some of the basic differences in the fundamental nature of leptons and quarks. One article on this issue compares leptons and quarks as "oranges vs apples" to which I basically agree except for one aspect. How can the charges of the quarks be 1/3 or 2/3 the...
