I've been working on the new cover art for 'Beyond Tycho.'

I guess if Arrhenius and Sir Hoyle were right, they could be the first interstellar travelers.

Very weird.

This, to me, is the most alien thing on planet Earth.

Cosmic Paradox Reveals the Awful Consequence of an Observer-Free Universe | Quanta Magazine Encouraged by successes in understanding black holes, theoretical physicists are applying what they’ve learned to whole universes. What they’re finding has them questioning fundamental assumptions abo...

A fascinating theory here about the nature of the observer in a topologically closed universe. Without such an observer, such a universe, paradoxically, can't even exist. There seems a requirement for information to be present on an observable boundary for the concept of information to have meaning.

Walk through the asteroid strike that killed the dinosaurs with American Museum of Natural History's new 'Impact' exhibit "It sounds like science fiction or the stuff of Hollywood movies."

Gotta see this exhibit!

I've been a dino fan since childhood. The discovery of the K-T boundary changed science. Catastrophism beat gradualism in the scientific mind. The Deccan pits hypothesis succumbed to the horrors of Chicxulub.

Incidentally, Tycho may've been a broken-off sister object... fft

Physicists Discover Our Solar System May Be Breaking the Cosmic Speed Limit The speed and direction of our solar system through the universe may defy current cosmological models.

The solar system is pedal-down bookin'!

The bigger picture is what this means for anisotropy. A major assumption of physics is that the universe as we know it is uniform, or isotropic, throughout.

If that's not so, which building evidence suggests it isn't, then it's back to the drawing board...

Gorgeous!

They can imitate it, but never duplicate it.

Sometimes ideas for poems or songs or whatever just arrive to you in the middle of the night. Pow!

I scribbled thru some parts of this one, still in progress. It's intended to be a song but I've still yet to compose the music for it...

Exactement.

Remarkable new study determines there is 'no evidence' of an accelerating universe "Remarkable" findings from Yonsei University cast doubt on 'dark energy' theory and claim there is "no evidence" of an accelerating universe.

They're finally snuffing out the 'standard candle.' It's an assumption in cosmology that all Type 1A supernovas are exactly the same. Without it, the age, distance and expansion rate of the observable universe will need to be recalibrated, and some of the Hubble tension should disappear.

And so does Haiti.

Jamaica needs your help right now.

Jeff Bridges' WideluxX Revival Has Reached Prototype Stage and It's Beautiful Panoramic dreams are becoming reality.

Susan and Jeff Bridges helping to bring back an old pano film classic, a Widelux redux?... Dude! That's so cool.

The old geezers who made this thing may all be dead or crazy by now, but it nonetheless hits as hard as it used to.

Sometimes you got to break out the old records just to keep the dust from collecting. Dark Side was always one of my favorites...

I like vinyl because it lasts. To think, this thing was pressed a full 52 years ago now, yet it still sounds awesome.

Working with kids on creative writing recently has reminded me: storytelling, at its heart, is a human to human sharing of language and meaning and experience.

No kind of imitative machine, AI or other, will ever be able to do that. It's a fundamentally cognitive act; it can't be faked.

Autumn is the spirit season. Someone once said it's when the veil between one world and another thins. A dying time, perhaps, but a sacred transition: when color and sunsets umber and burn, the light of heaven begins to stretch and days fade. After the last leaf is down, nature whispers "eternity."
