    Exploring Beyond Absolute Zero: Thermodynamics Re-examined

    http://www.tgdaily.com/general-sciences-features/68525-beyond-absolute-zero-temperatures-get-hotter#cRgTRdxE2qwYX5DR.16 It's been done in the lab, could this be seen in the cosmos? Could this affect entropies end game? What does this mean for the second law of thermodynamics?

    Why does Earth have an axial tilt

    Interesting replies guys, thanks for helping me clear that up and understand that a bit better. Another thought popped into my mind when reading them Did planetary formation begin prior to the ignition of the sun or afterwards?

    Why does Earth have an axial tilt

    Why does Earth have an axial tilt? I thought it may be due to the suns mass and the gravitational effect on space. But Mercury and Venus doesn't have a tilt so I concluded that can't be a plausible explanation.

    Were Martian Rivers a Reality?

    looks like my two lined statement caused some debate. found this article on the hydrological cycle. havn't read it yet but should prove interesting to to those who are interested Enjoy http://www.agu.org/journals/ms/ms1203/2011MS000069/

    Universal Rotation: Kurt Godel's Time-Loop Theory

    was watching a documentary about Kurt godel and his idea about going back in time if you looped time, and the only real world way they said that this could be done was to loop time everywhere. The they said that the universe however does not rotate. Which interested me because i couldn't think...

    Were Martian Rivers a Reality?

    Seems like the logical conclusion; after all there's lots of orbital photographs with evidence of running water on Mars. I don't have to tell you that water pools at the lowest point, and that water must of been going somewhere for sometime to erode bedrock like that, there must had been some...

    Were Martian Rivers a Reality?

    running water itself is evidence of hydrology in itself.

    VLBI SETI: Detecting Signals in Gliese 581 System

    i was thinking out loud. thanks for clearing it up. I should of probably known all that as well. I guess patience is in order. depends how long a planet has been noisy for or so i hear How long would it take for a radio transmission to travel a hundred light years. We just have to get...

    VLBI SETI: Detecting Signals in Gliese 581 System

    Interesting article. Would it ever be possible to detect extra-terrestrial civilisations by listening out for RFI transmissions couldn't the radio wave be trashed by passing through a gas cloud or affected by the gravitational pull of a star, planet or black hole. Also wouldn't the...

    Why don't shooting stars make a noise?

    interesting. How do you know that they do? Not saying i don't believe you, just curious.

    Why don't shooting stars make a noise?

    Pretty self explainable. Why do they not create a sonic boom when they enter Earths atmosphere

    QM focused Documentaries/lectures.

    Hello there. It's fair to say that QM confuses me, a lot. Does anyone recommend any lectures/documentaries that i could watch to further my understanding of QM I'd prefer to watch lectures if i be honest, because i know that documentaries are dumbed down for the public (lets face it they...
