Exploring bleeding edge experiments, oddities, new and bizarre dicoveries, and fact-checking conspiracy theories since 2008. No question is out of bounds and no topic is too strange for a deep dive.

Before we build practical quantum computers, we need to learn how to read quantum states. One idea may be to make the circuits bigger. Much bigger. At least on a nano scale that is...

Roger Penrose is in no mood for exotic theories. In fact, he thinks its latest papers should be junked.

Black holes are often described as tears in space and time. But that's not what they really are. What they really are is so much stranger...

Quantum physics are weird, but they're probably not fill-the-universe-with-galaxy-group-sized-subatomic-particles weird...
# space
Warp drives will work by creating a bubble of twisted space. But the physics of that bubble get very complicated very quickly.

Despite what you were told, particle colliders don't have enough energy to generate micro black holes. But what if they could? Could we plug them into our energy grids?

The concept of a singularity not covered by an event horizon has been around for a while and used to justify some very bizarre tales...
