    Black Holes Could Be Back Doors to Other Universes, Scientist Claims

    If true, this theory could explain how all of the matter in our universe was created. SCATTERED THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE are ravenous black holes that pull gas, dust, light and even other black holes into their maw, never to be seen again. Like a riptide pulling swimmers out to sea, the gravity inside a black hole pulls matter […]

    How This Remote Utah Ranch Became a Paranormal Activity Hotspot

    Bizarre phenomena have lured real-estate tycoons, scientists, TV producers—and the U.S. government—to Skinwalker Ranch. What are they looking for? I have been warned. This much is clear within minutes of ducking out of a helicopter onto the high-desert oasis of Skinwalker Ranch in northeastern Utah one searingly bright October afternoon. As a visitor approaching the […]

    Quantum Entanglement in Your Brain Is What Generates Consciousness, Radical Study Suggests

    This controversial idea could completely change how we understand the mind. gremlin//Getty Images It has long been argued that the human brain is similar to a computer. But in reality, that’s selling the brain pretty short. While comparing neurons and transistors is a convenient metaphor (and not completely out of left field), the brain is ultra-efficient, its energy is […]

  • Your Consciousness Can Connect With the Whole Universe, Groundbreaking New Research Suggests

    Your Consciousness Can Connect With the Whole Universe, Groundbreaking New Research Suggests

    This latest clue about the architecture of consciousness supports a Nobel-Prize winner’s theory about how quantum physics works in your brain. A RECENT GROUNDBREAKING EXPERIMENT in which anesthesia was administered to rats has convinced scientists that tiny structures in the rodents’ brains are responsible for the experience of consciousness. To pull it off, these microscopic hollow […]

    This Quantum Paradox Shows We’re Not Real.

    Well, not “locally real,” at least. Yuichiro Chino//Getty Images For over 100 years now, quantum mechanics has rattled the cage of everything we’ve believed we know about physics. Is everything just made of wiggles and waves if you look close enough? How far can one entanglement be stretched—is it long enough to enable quantum telecommunications around the […]
