Earth’s Magnetic Field – How Magnetosphere Protects Life of Earth | Explained in 5 Minutes
Introduction The Earth’s magnetic field is Magnetosphere. The extent of a planet’s dynamic resurfacing due to plate tectonics provides indirect evidence about whether it still has a molten interior. But another, more direct tool for probing the interior of Earth is an ordinary compass, which senses the magnetic field outside our planet. Magnetic field measurements […]

What is Future of The Universe – Dark Energy & Fate of The Universe
Cosmological Constant and Future of The Universe The cosmological constant is the simplest solution to the problem of cosmic acceleration with just one number successfully explaining a variety of observations and has become an essential feature in the current standard model of cosmology. It is called the lambda–cold dark matter model, as it incorporates both […]

Theory of Relativity – Relativistic Gravity Explained in 5 Minutes
Special Theory of Relativity In 1905, Albert Einstein published his paper on the Special Theory of Relativity. One consequence of this theory was that nothing could travel through space faster than the speed of light. This extended beyond material things: information and the effects of force fields were included too. Einstein realized that this was […]

Dark Energy Mystery – The Unseen Black Power of The Universe
Introduction Normal and dark matter can between them account for some 27% of the total mass/energy of the universe. It appears that the majority, some 73%, must be something else. It is thought to be a form of energy latent within space itself that is totally uniform throughout space. In fact, this could be exactly […]
