Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

The big bang theory is often misinterpreted for what some may describe as the origin of the universe. However, this misconception actually informs us on how our universe was created in one single explosion, which is said to have happened approximately fourteen billion years ago.8 Everything that makes up who we are and what surrounds us started then, as an infinitely small volume that continued to expand in a ridiculously fast rate, where within a matter of minutes the universe became the size…

The Big Bang Theory is the current theory of the origin of the universe that has largely been accepted by scientists, however it is not one hundred percent correct as modifications of the theory is continuously being developed as new discoveries, observations and calculations are being made. In the beginning in the universe, there was nothing, no space, no matter, no light, no time and no sound. Then there was a sudden explosion of energy which we now call the Big Bang. But there was no BANG…

I’ve always been an adventurous girl. I like to feel my heart pound through my chest and the adrenaline rush through my body. Cars excite me the most. I like the feeling I get when I push the pedal further down each time watching my surroundings fly by me. When I was younger, I couldn’t wait to be old enough to get my license. At fourteen, my grandma started letting me drive her car. My mom didn't like this idea, but it was our little secret. At first, I wasn’t even allowed to push the gas. I…

sister, or even me. He payed the rent, he was not a bad father.. It’s just when he got drunk, or did drugs, that’s when he obviously was not. After so many nights without little sleep, one day, around 4 or 5 in the morning, I heard a BANG ! One BANG Two BANGS in the door. Is that my father? No it was not… My mother looked into the little hole of the door to check and see who it was. When one man turned around, my mother noticed a police officer’s badge. I noticed her whole face turned…

To most people around the world today may just seem like another day in the 13th century, however here in Italy today marks a significant discovery and the first time that the cosmological has been made famous within society. Although we have been told that the concept has been around since Plato and Aristotle, it is not until now that it has been made famous around the world and in Western philosophy. Today marks the day St Thomas Aquinas declared their theory for Gods existence, which has…

Introduction Around 90% of the universe is currently undetectable.[1] Allowing oneself to then believe that all the experiments and missions carried out for space exploration and countless images portraying the beauties of the world beyond the sky has only shown around 10% of the contents of the universe is unfathomable. So what mysteries lurk in the void of our universe? Any Physicist, or fellow inquisitive mind reading this, will immediately have two distinct phrases come to mind: Dark matter…

Miracles and Naturalists “Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters to large for some of us to see” C.S Lewis. Miracles are highly controversial topics because they are something quite out of the normal, something that is not natural but super natural. This paper will talk about the supernatural form of miracles in contrast with the thoughts of the Naturalists. But holding either view, that there are such things as…

In 1964 a physicist by the name of Peter Higgs took some ideas that were floating around at the time, added an insight or two of his own, and proposed that there was an energy field that permeated the entire universe. This energy field is now called the Higgs filed. The reason he proposed this field was that nobody understood why some subatomic particles had a great deal of mass, while others had little and some had none at all. The energy filed that Higgs proposed would interact with the…

Hayy developed a cosmology to portray how he understood the world through the use of observation, speculation, and comparison, without it he would have never discovered how interconnected the universe was. Hayy understands the world in a way that is similar to Copernicus and the rest of previous scientists. His theory of the world stemmed from developments that took place over 28 years in seven-year increments (Ibn Ṭufayl 1150, pg. 128). Hayy understood the world through the basis of the four…

William Herschel was not an astronomer when he discovered Uranus. He was actually a musician and teacher. He looked at the stars as a hobby. However, he used a method different than most star gazers of the time. He mapped out the stars in relation to each other, instead of the traditional grid method used at the time (Smith 2013). He started out by studying the Society papers on natural history and matter theory, after he joined the Bath Philosophical Society in 1780. He also reached out to the…
