DARK ENERGY

                                                         Astronomers have discovered that they do not know what makes up over 90 percent of the universe. What is more, the discoveries that led to question their understanding of the fundamentals of physics itself. Of course, such questions are nothing new. Toward the end of the 19 th century, physicists observed something odd about the speed of light. They found that relative to an observer, light always traveled at the same speed no matter how fast the observer was moving. But that seemed to defy natural law! The problem was addressed in 1905 in Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativity, which showed that distance [length], time, and mass are not absolutes. Then, after a flash of intuition that he termed “the happiest thought of my life,” Einstein began to develop his general theory of relativity, which he published in 1916. In this revolutionary work, Einstein wove gravity , space, and time together and ref

WHAT YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT THE SUN

         The sun; a giant, glowing ball of gas some 850,000 miles in diameter . The temperature at its surface is over 11,000 F ., hot enough to vaporize any material known to man. Deep within the sun, the temperature rises to over twenty million degrees, a heat we cannot begin to imagine or comprehend.             The sun dominates our solar system, containing more than 99% of the system’s matter. The sun is a thousand times as massive as Jupiter, the largest planet, and 335 , 000 times as massive as the earth. And if the sun were hollow, 1,300,000 earths could be fitted inside!            In short, the sun is immense; it is the unquestioned center of the solar system.            And yet, when compared with other stars, the sun is nothing more than average. There are stars a dozen times as massive as the sun, and others but a tenth as large. There are stars that outshine our sun 50,000 times over, and others just a hundredth as bright.             In fact, the sun i

THE MAGIC IN YOUR FINGERS

A lot is said about power of thought and the radiations of mental energy that the student is often misled in understanding just how these radiations manifest themselves. All nerve energy is electrical, this fact immediately opens the door-way to a vast field of research and incidentally to a larger field of speculation. Nerve energy is electrical, and with this fact as a premise or starting point begin to speculate wildly and illogical, and therefore come to all sorts of erroneous conclusions. If the nerve energy in the human body was directed and concentrated to a point in the fingers then in addition to merely producing a physiological effect within the fingers, a secondary effect in the nature of radiations of that energy would result, and this secondary effect would tend to radiate or move outward from the point or place of the original impulse, this impulse could be detected by sensitive persons or perhaps sensitive instruments.       A scientist called Mesmer carried out
