If it takes work or energy to pull them apart, then the binding energy is the amount of energy it takes to completely separate them. Similarly the binding energy in a nucleus is the amount of energy it takes to completely separate the protons and neutrons, (collectively called nucleons.) There are two forces acting inside the nucleus of atoms. The nuclear force — a residuum of the strong force that holds quarks together — is pulling the neutrons and protons together — and the electric charge on the protons is pushing them apart. The strong force is a lot stronger than the electric force at short ranges up to two and a half times the proton diameter, but at larger distances the electric force dominates. This increase in binding energy continues until we get to iron and nickel where the nucleus has about 60 nucleons in it. At this point, the nucleus has a radius more than two and a half nucleons wide, which you remember is the range at which the repulsive ElectroMagnetic Force begins to dominate.. . So as we add nucleons past this point the electric force trying to tear the nucleus apart starts winning and each added nucleon is a little less-tightly bound. — The Cassiopeia Project is an effort to make high …

Hosted by Morgan Freeman, Through the Wormhole explores the deepest mysteries of existence — the questions that have puzzled mankind for eternity. What are we made of? What was there before the beginning? Are we really alone? These questions have been pondered by the most brilliant minds in history. Now, modern science may be able to provide us with answers

Episode 1 — Aliens Hawking joins science and imagination to explore one of the most important mysteries facing humankind — the possibility of alien,intelligent life and the likelihood of future “contact.” Traveling from the moons of Jupiter to a galaxy maybe not so far, far away, he’ll introduce us to possible alien life forms — in stunning CGI — that face the same universal trials of adaptation and survival as the residents of Earth.

Happy Rhodes – Warpaint – 09 – “All Things (Mia ia io)” (1991) Lyrics: All Things (Mia Ia Io) I had another accident last night I tripped over a soul in flight Must’ve dented the ship ‘Cause my memory fades While I patch the damage Tell me of your escapades I dreamed I was an animal In a human world Now when I hear big sounds I cry like a little girl I’m talking about connections Between here and there All things exist at once Seems more than we can bear Mia ia io Mia ia io Tell me all the plans You have for the great beyond Will you be physical again Or be a cosmic vagabond I took a little back road To fame I’m still traveling now But I’m free of shame I had another accident last night I tripped over a soul in flight Must’ve dented the ship ’cause my memory fades While I patch the damage Tell me of your escapades Mia ia io Mia ia io Mia ia io Mia ia io Mia ia io Mia ia io Song © 1991 – Happy Rhodes Music, lyrics, voices, and arrangements – Happy Rhodes See credits at ecto.org for additional info Vocals, keyboards, percussion – Happy Rhodes Keyboards, percussion, guitars and additional heavy breathing – Kevin Bartlett

SETI Archive: seti.org Ancient features such as outflow channels and phyllosilicate mineral outcrops, suggest a large amount of water was once present on the Martian surface. The volume of water required to form these features exceeds the current inventory of water frozen at the Martian poles. Observations of surface craters and large flow features known as lobate debris aprons provide insight into the amount of water ice stored in mid-latitudes.

Nearly every religious and spiritual tradition includes meditation at the center of its practice. However little is known about the goal of meditation, the meditation process, and what happens during meditation. In the media, meditation is taught as a relaxation technique, however for thousands of years meditation has used as the tool for knowledge in many sciences including health, psychology, physics, biology, and spirituality. In the oldest sciences in history Chinese Medicine / Taoism and Hinduism / Yoga the scientists were holy men with powerful minds who meditated to find answers. This Channel Higher Self video provides a detailed science of the layers of the self discovered during meditation. Starting with most dense layers (thought …
