It sounds like astrophysics is for you. By combining physics, astronomy, and mathematics, one studies the universe as an astrophysicist. I am in high school as well, and i theorize that your career goal, advancement in the knowledge of wormholes, will be one of the prime focuses of our...

It's too bad that the nations of the world are not completely open with one another. If they were, i think the human race would have a much better understanding of the universe. With all the great minds of physics at work together, the possibilities would be extraordinary. Maybe one day...

I am still in high school and so i am fairly new to the world of physics. I am curious as to if the physicists of a large multitude of nations collaborate with their research and their findings. Or do countries try to keep their discoveries to themselves in an attempt to get ahead? It seems like...

The big questions can be asked about anything. Subjectivity is a trait that all humans share. All who read the words that i am typing will understand them differently, based on an individual subjective interpretation. Idealism and materialism can be reduced down to two separate notions...

Don't ever think that poor grades in school determine your intelligence. There are by far too many variables to consider. For one, a student who does not try hard may wind up with a B, while another student who gave it his all may end up with an A. Now who is smarter? Some would say the...

If you want to be an Aerospace Engineer, it seems like studying astrophysics would be of great benefit to you. An in depth understanding of how the universe works, especially in outer space, would be useful in your pursuits to become an Aerospace Engineer. The applications that you would gain...

Hi, i am currently a junior in high school, and i am very interested in becoming a physicist. However, i don't want to jump to any conclusions based on any false idealized notion of what i think being a professional physicist would be like. I am currently in an honors physics class and a member...
