Babe Ruth. Willie Mays. Hank Aaron. Ted Williams. This bunch would make any fan’s short list––a seemingly inevitable event this time of year––of baseball’s all-time … more

General relativity and quantum mechanics represent the two most fundamental and important theories in all of physics. The former describes the large-scale structure of the universe, while the latter … more

Imagine demolishing a concrete slab using a Phillips head screwdriver. Or painting highway stripes with a Q-tip. Those tools make the task virtually impossible. Yet taking a trip to The Home Depot to … more

Prior to twentieth century developments in physics, scientists and philosophers had come to believe that the universe had been static for infinite time. Then the theory of general relativity affirmed … more

Space-time theorems prove a supernatural Agent must've created the universe of space, time, matter, and energy. These theorems are true, however, only if general relativity reliably describes the … more

Isaac Newton’s most highly regarded scientific publication is his three-volume work Principia. In it, he powerfully demonstrated that the motions of the heavens operated according to the same … more

My graduate research focused on detecting extremely energetic gamma rays from astronomical objects. Using an arbitrary set of units, if the light from a standard incandescent bulb has the energy of … more
