SELECTIVE DATA FITTING. “Nevertheless, there are few relevant dates and selective use of those ambiguous data to fit conflicting models has impeded progress. Buchan (2013) saw only a single continent (northern North America + Greenland) as usefully constrained during the Proterozoic.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0012825219302636?via=ihub View in LinkedIn

DIFFERENT KNOWING. “That the mind itself has a higher state of existence, beyond reason, a superconscious state, and that when the mind gets to that higher state, then this knowledge beyond reasoning comes.” (William James, Varieties, page 397, 1902) https://lnkd.in/dSyN7rAC View in LinkedIn

FLAWED DOGMA. “At the end of inflation, when the universe is not even 10(−30) seconds old, a new phase of very violent deceleration is supposed to start, leading, about 10(5) years later (virtually an eternity compared to the two previous epochs), to a period where matter, until then mostly irrelevant, manages eventually to become the majority component while radiation as well as dark energy are then totally negligible.” https://lnkd.in/daA2SgMy View in LinkedIn

STANDARD MODEL FAILINGS. “In particular, there does not exist any precise fundamental theory allowing to understand how one can not only enter but also leave this phase of inflation. A time slightly too long will lead to a virtually empty universe, whereas a time slightly too short will lead to the re-collapse of the universe in a few Planck times (10(−44 0) s).” https://lnkd.in/daA2SgMy View in LinkedIn

CROSSING THE LINE. “Dubinski et al. the evolution of underdense regions, which expand and lead to large “voids” that occupy the largest fraction of our universe, could be described as the evolution of negative mass particles violating “maximally” the equivalence principle.” https://lnkd.in/daA2SgMy View in LinkedIn

REANALYSIS. “Motivated by the fact that our universe shares several aspects with a coasting universe, we have studied structure formation in universes involving equal amounts of negative and positive mass, with a particular emphasis on the Dirac-Milne cosmology.” https://lnkd.in/daA2SgMy View in LinkedIn

“One of the Milky Way’s premier star factories is the Carina Nebula (NGC 3372), which came to life about 3 million years ago when stars first ignited in a cloud of molecular hydrogen. In this view, jets of gas erupt from infant stars emerging from their birthplaces.”" " https://lnkd.in/dVvuFFPY View in LinkedIn

A Caganer (Catalan pronunciation: [kəɣəˈne]) is a figurine depicted in the act of defecation appearing in nativity scenes in Catalonia and neighbouring areas with Catalan culture such as Andorra, Valencia, and Northern Catalonia (in southern France). It is most popular and widespread in these areas, but can also be found in other areas of Spain (Murcia), Portugal, and southern Italy (Naples)." " https://lnkd.in/dkEcYBAS View in LinkedIn

“ISAAC NEWTON was so haunted by that sense of the transcendent that he devoted the latter part of his life to alchemical studies.” https://lnkd.in/dCkkSu3Y View in LinkedIn

PRELIMINARY INSIGHTS. “While Gbar is preparing a precision measurement with antihydrogen ions cooled to a few tens of microkelvin, the ALPHA collaboration, which made the first spectroscopic measurements on antihydrogen, achieved in 2013 the first constraints on antimatter gravity, though still a factor ≈ 65 larger than the sensitivity necessary to test antigravity.” https://lnkd.in/daA2SgMy View in LinkedIn
