Time May Be an Illusion

Time may be a construct of human perception rather than a fundamental aspect of the universe.

Why does physics break down at the Planck scale?

The laws of physics remain consistent across all times and locations despite complex interactions and limitations at the Planck scale.

The Universe is not symmetric

Mirrors reflect physical asymmetries in nature, revealing fundamental differences in particle behavior and symmetries.

Scientists Are Mapping the Bizarre, Chaotic Spacetime Inside Black Holes

Singularities challenge our understanding of space, time, and gravity, and simplifications in Einstein's equations help explore these complex phenomena.
