Other Dimensions

I'm not qualified to answer the question. Not sure anyone is, as in can we take some theory and try to prove it/disprove it? 

Still, I like to think that we do live in a universe with more than three dimensions and time because the idea fascinates me with so many what ifs?

What ifs? are at the foundation of the SF. It is what makes SF a genre. Not mundane what ifs? But the big questions about life, the universe and everything. Cue standard response...

Things are difficult at the moment for me. So, just another post as proof of life. Enjoy.

Dark Matter: The Situation has Changed

My takeaway, caveat I'm not a physicist, this is a bit like the concept of 'wavicles' in quantum physics. So fields and particles equals fieldacles or partifields, I don't know, just saying.

Still, as some one who is interested in how science advances, it's just plain fascinating to see how theories evolve through the process of the 'scientific method.' Nothing is proven, it's only not disproven. A way of thinking that most people seem to have a hard time getting their heads around.

Only natural, as it's contrary to our normal way of thinking and how we take advantage of heuristics to save energy: from an evolutionary, Darwinian perspective thinking a lot is not maximally effective of making the best of minimal resources.

Anyway, enough bloviating.

Archived Episode 22: Another Military Sci-Fi Panel!

Now up on YouTube a podcast that I appeared on (can be heard on) from the Blasters and Blades Podcast with: Doc Cisca (Uber Book Fan and Army Medic); JR Handley (Author and Grunt); Nick Garber (Comic Book Artist and Super Grunt).

They're talking with me Ralph Kern and Tim C. Taylor. Check it out.

Starship Lands on Fifth

 

Go for launch, lands on fifth. I'm sure there would've been a good Star Wars meme had SpaceX launched Starship on the fourth of May, but to stick the landing this time is great news.

Our space ambitions are starting to look like what we imagined was possible back in 1950s during the Golden Age of SF, unless one thinks that happened earlier, or is happening now? It all depends on the definition of what makes something 'golden?'

I don't know. I'm not that smart, and who cares? It's all good.

Augmented Reality

 

The US Army's New Augmented Reality Goggles Look Like 1970s Sci-Fi is the title header. Bit what is more important is that this is the development of the 5G system I shared back here.

This is totally rocking the idea that I described in Bad Dog when the Marines are searching under the mountain trying to find the lost Special Forces team that had gone missing.
