Mystery of the Missing Sunspots, Solved?

Jun 18th, 2009 | By CentroN | Category: NASA

[NASA]
June 17, 2009: The sun is in the pits of a century-class solar minimum, and sunspots have been puzzlingly scarce for more than two years. Now, for the first time, solar physicists might understand why.
At an American Astronomical Society press conference today in Boulder, Colorado, researchers announced that a jet stream deep inside the sun [...]



Diodes producing power

Nov 8th, 2008 | By CentroN | Category: Physics

Free Energy Diode Research
The following outlines the physics, mathematics and recent experiments taking place regarding diodes producing power from Thermal noise that exists in all matter. In terms of the mathematics diodes must rectify Thermal noise according to the conventional physics of diode modeling. Thermal noise is a natural ambient thermal energy that exists in [...]



Nuclear fusion energy project could lead to limitless clean electricity

Oct 6th, 2008 | By CentroN | Category: Physics


The power of the sun is to be recreated in a new £1 billion science project which aims to provide a clean and almost limitless source of energy.
British scientists will this week begin work to create a nuclear fusion reactor, which will use the same powerful reactions that take place in the Sun to provide [...]



Solstice Moon Illusion

[NASA]
June 16 , 2008: Sometimes you just can’t believe your eyes. This week is one of those times.
On Wednesday night, June 18th, step outside at sunset and look around. You’ll see a giant form rising in the east. At first glance it looks like the full Moon.

An Improved Theory for Galaxy Rotation

May 29th, 2008 | By CentroN | Category: Astronomy

Galaxy Spiral Arm Stability and Dynamics
Simple Newtonian gravitation is sufficient to explain the entire behavior of Galaxy Spiral Arms. The well-known Keplerian effect certainly dominates, but a Spiral Arm also has internal mutual gravitation, which has surprisingly strong effects!
The stability of galaxy spiral arms has long troubled the Astrophysics community. It has been assumed that [...]



Cold Fusion - Prof. Y. Arata Plans Demonstration at Osaka University

May 20th, 2008 | By CentroN | Category: Physics

May 14, 2008
Osaka National University Prof. emeritus Yoshiaki Arata has announced a lecture and demonstration of his latest cold fusion reactor, on May 22, 2008, starting at 1:30 p.m. (subject to change). A photo of the reactor is shown below. The lecture will be on the 1st floor of Arata Hall on the university campus, [...]



Spacetime and Spin

May 12th, 2008 | By CentroN | Category: Physics

The Many Faces of Spin
Many of nature’s deepest mysteries come in threes. Why does space have three spatial dimensions (ones that we can see, anyway)? Why are there three fundamental dimensions in physics (mass M, length L and time T)? Why three fundamental constants in nature (Newton’s gravitational constant G, the speed of light c [...]



4D live model of Earth’s ionosphere

May 1st, 2008 | By CentroN | Category: NASA, News

April 30, 2008: Today, NASA-funded researchers released to the general public a new “4D” live model of Earth’s ionosphere. Without leaving home, anyone can fly through the layer of ionized gas that encircles Earth at the edge of space itself. All that’s required is a connection to the Internet.

Little Sea Creature - Big Shock for Darwinists

Apr 30th, 2008 | By CentroN | Category: Science

by Joel Kontinen
A recent study funded by the National Science Foundation used over 100 computers to analyse the evolutionary history of the Earth’s earliest animals. In the 19th century, Charles Darwin introduced the view that all living organisms form a tree of life from which the various species branch off. Although the tree currently looks [...]



Strange Things Happen at Full Moon

Apr 19th, 2008 | By CentroN | Category: Astronomy

Full moons are said to be behind many strange things, but here’s one you didn’t know about: At full moon, our favorite satellite is whipped by Earth’s magnetotail, causing lunar dust storms and discharges of static electricity.
This new finding, announced this week by NASA, is important to future lunar explorers: Astronauts may find themselves “crackling [...]
