What happens when we die? This spiritual question has haunted humanity since the dawn of thought. Yet despite centuries of soul-searching, the mystery of consciousness remains unsolved.

In 1977, humankind sent a machine into the interstellar void to tell the Universe who we were. Now, 48 years later, the void may have answered with a message to Voyager…

Why Moving Clocks Do Slow Down

A cartoon drawing featuring two cartoon character clocks running the London Marathon. One of the two overtakes the other one who is almost stationary and says: "I'm slowwer". Moving clocks do slow down. Cartoon: NaturPhilosophie with AI

At some point, we’ve all heard about time dilation – every sci-fi fan among us in particular.  And yet, moving clocks DO slow down.  This is not a fiction fantasy.  It’s a little thing called Special Relativity.

Zero Point Energy and The Vacuum of Space

According to whom you ask, Zero Point Energy can do everything… or nothing at all.  But what is it?  Something that pervades all of space, albeit on a microscale?  The kinetic energy a molecule does retain, even when cooled down to absolute zero?  And could it offer us a source of unlimited energy?

Neural Oscillations – Are You Having a Brain Wave?

Brain wave or not brain wave? - Ideation Artwork: NaturPhilosophie

The brain is a bio-chemical organ that emanates electromagnetic waves.  That little, we do know.  And brainwaves are linked to cognitive states from awareness and consciousness, to dream states.  But what are their particularities?  And are brain waves modulated by external frequencies?

The Brief Flight of the Russian Woodpecker Over The Horizon – And More About Phased Array Radars…

North east of Ukraine, close to the Russian border, is the site of the Duga radar, also known during the 70s and 80s as the Woodpecker – one of the most extraordinary engineering structures ever built.

Nine – The Elusive Planet in Our Solar System

A hypothetical Ninth planet has been lurking on the outskirts of our Solar System.  But Planet Nine may not be a planet at all…

The Universe Expands Far Faster Than Anticipated…

The Universe is accelerating

For a while now, astrophysicists have known that our Universe is expanding, and accelerating.  And much like the surface of a rubber balloon getting inflated, space is getting bigger, and bigger, and bigger…

Pushing the Boundaries

The Chernobyl nuclear disaster left behind a highly toxic landscape.  Thirty-two years hence, the area around the Ukrainian ghost town of Pripyat largely reverted to forest.  Despite the contamination, wildlife gradually took over.  Hints of recovery emerged as animal species began to thrive, free from the disruptive influence of human activity.  And for the first time, researchers recorded evidence of a young wolf boldly venturing away from the danger zone.
