Black Hole Formation Stars are affected by two main forces: Nuclear fusion, and gravitation Black Holes are the result of an imbalance of these two forces. Nuclear fusion- the outward force from the star's centre and gravitation- the force pulling inwards. These two processes balance one another u...

Albert Einstein Albert Einstein was one of the greatest brains ever to come to the 20th century. Einstein contributed to the 20th century more than any other scientist ever. His theory of relativity is held as the highest quality of a human thought ever to come. Albert Einstein was born on March 14...

Have you ever wondered why certain people seem to be born with bad luck? Some people appear to be touched by the hand of Midas, and yet others always step out on the left side of bed. What if there were actual scientific explanations for these phenomenons. During a physics lesson in my junior yea...

Gravity Gravity The gravitational force at the surface of the planet is the force that binds all bodies to earth, this force is one of the four forces recognized by physicists, and this kind of force is known as "gravity" it attracts every celestial object to earth, and though it is the ...

Black holes? I know what you are thinking. Something black in space that sucks you in and you can never get out. Even though that is basically true, there is a lot more to it than that. Black holes are the mysterious dark regions of the universe. A black hole is an area of space made up of extremely...

Introduction Special relativity was introduced into the world in 1905 by a man named Albert Einstein. At the time it was a difficult concept to understand because it took place under conditions most people didn't even consider. Technology has greatly improved since the year 1905, not only w...

Star Trek is a show that has been fascinating audiences for years with impressive devices like holodecks, transporters, and warp drive. But could any of these things ever really be used? According to physics, some of the devices are theoretically possible, but probably not practical. Scotty under...

Evolution is not only improbable but clearly impossible. Extensive evidence against evolution is uncovered with every major scientific discovery. Every evolutionist "fact" can easily be rebuked by creationists. Twelve supposed hominoids have been discovered and presented as supporting eviden...

The oldest profession in the world is not what would be commonly accepted in society. Before a woman had a chance to sell her body, people looked up at the stars and wondered what they were. They made figures out of the shapes they made. As we advanced through scientific research many other doo...

Black Holes What is a Black Hole? A black hole is a region of space that has so much mass concentrated in it that there is no way for a nearby object to escape its gravitational pull. An example of gravity I will quote from Black Holes FAQ by Ted Bunn. "Suppose that you are standing on t...

Physics; it is the branch of science concerned with the properties of matter and energy and the relationships between them. Many people think that physics is just another boring school subject, but in my eyes it is the most fascinating of all scientific fields. It explains why things happen the ...
