HOW BIG IS THE UNIVERSE?

UNDERSTANDING UNIVERSE IN A NUTSHELL  Our universe is estimated to be around  93 billion light-years width and  it's constantly expanding but then again  that's just the observable universe  alone  astronomy is an amazing field of science  but before you dive into the wonderful  world of astronomy let me share with you  some basic facts that might help you, later on,  let's start off with the term  Lightyear which is a very commonly used  astronomical term but what exactly does  it mean a Lightyear simply put is a  distance light travels in one year which  is about  5.88  trillion  miles. In astronomy, we also use the  word parsec which means 3.26  light-years but let's just try to  keep things as simple as possible so we  now know that one light-year is about 5.88  miles  and the universe is about 93 billion  light-years wide and when we multiply  those two ...

WHAT IS A WORMHOLE?

WHAT ARE WORMHOLES? From science to science fiction wormholes seem to be a pretty interesting topic, after all, it's no wonder we see it everywhere from DC comics to Star Trek but within the last 30 years interest in wormholes has tremendously increased leaving us wondering how exactly do these odd pockets do in space even work.  Let us imagine walking down the street and coming across what seems to be a tear in space a hole if you will then step into this hole and find  out it can transport you anywhere in space-time that is what a wormhole can do. Wormholes themselves are a paradox their anatomy is so simple consisting of two mouths connected by a throat or tube  yet their function connecting two different points in space-time.   A  wormhole would basically be like a bridge or tunnel which would allow us to take a shortcut and save us a huge trip.  So how exactly it is passing   through a wormhole work strictly   speaking a wormhole is a tube wi...

THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING - STRING THEORY

 We know that everything around us is made up of elements and compounds. Our entire universe constitutes of chemical elements and compounds. We situated all these elements in a periodic table. So many elements were found. But scientists are still trying to find new elements every day. In the periodic table, every element represents a particular type of matter, and these have different properties but there isn't an element that represents the properties of gravity. We are experiencing gravity just as a force but we haven't found an element representing it. If we found one, then it would be called Graviton, then this graviton can be the Theory of Everything. Quantum Mechanics deals with properties like matter, light, and energy at atomic and subatomic levels. In general, it is the probability of a particle to move from point A to point B. It deals in the scale of atomic and subatomic levels instead the string theory goes deep inside. Atom is the basic constituent of matter, but i...

TOP 5 INTERESTING FACTS-2

 TOP INTERESTING FACTS VOLUME 2 Hey, guys, this is our second volume of facts we hope you all like it.

TIME DILATION

TO THE FUTURE Have you ever thought of time traveling? Trying to know about your future? What will happen next? How would you look when you become old? I'm pretty sure you have. And you also might have thought that it would be practically impossible. But there was a man who once traveled through time. He is Sergei Krikalev, was a Russian astronaut, has a record of 803.371 days spent in space. He actually traveled through time to his future by 0.02 seconds. Here, what he experienced is not time traveling but time dilation.                                        TIME DILATION There are many ways to explain time dilation. It can be said as the difference between the time in two clocks, each having their individual velocity or the difference between Gravitational potential between their locations. To be put in simple words, time dilation is the process of slowing down the clocks bec...
