SPACE-TIME and gravity are difficult to understand in part because bulk (classical, Newtonian) world experience is at harsh odds with the (nano) quantum world, and appear to operate under different physical laws. The next section is a prelude to space-time cloaking with metamaterials. That will rock your boat. View in LinkedIn

INDIVISIBLE. "Since time is relative to the observer, it is impossible to divide it up into past, present and future in a way that is universally meaningful. In some sense, past, present and future are all there at once." https://lnkd.in/eafS82F View in LinkedIn

NEXT WEEKEND there is more on the intimate relationship between that odd liquid, water, and biological molecules. No longer seen as innocent bystanders, water has been found to play active roles in complex biological functions. This is neither mystical, magical nor cause for hydration mania, but simply a consequence of a long, and extraordinary, evolutionary process. View in LinkedIn

COSMIC TRAMPOLINE. "Time and space, according to Einstein's theories of relativity, are woven together, forming a four-dimensional fabric called "space-time." The mass of Earth dimples this fabric, much like a heavy person sitting in the middle of a trampoline." https://lnkd.in/eTmgCDm View in LinkedIn

BIOMOLECULES AFFECT WATER. "It has been shown both by experiments and simulations that the proximity of a biomolecule such as a protein perturbs water dynamics in its hydration shell. However, our understanding of this perturbation remains incomplete, and questions such as the magnitude and molecular origins of the perturbation are still actively discussed." https://lnkd.in/efGUyGx View in LinkedIn

EARTH VORTEX. "Einstein was right again. There is a space-time vortex around Earth, and its shape precisely matches the predictions of Einstein's theory of gravity." https://lnkd.in/eTmgCDm View in LinkedIn

GRAVITY SLOWS TIME. "Einstein realised that time and space are inextricably linked in what he called spacetime, so the warping effect of gravity does not just effect space, but also time." https://lnkd.in/eafS82F View in LinkedIn

FABRIC OF SPACE. "In his general theory of relativity, published in 1916, Einstein showed that gravity too can slow time. Rather than thinking of gravity as an invisible force that wafts across the ether, Einstein thought of it as the effect of massive bodies distorting the very fabric of space." https://lnkd.in/eafS82F View in LinkedIn

THE ILLUSION. "People like us who believe in physics know that the distinction between the past, the present and the future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion." (Albert Einstein). https://lnkd.in/eafS82F View in LinkedIn
