ATLAS/CERN 2009 Multimedia Contest and Intern Program (www.atlas.ch/contest/)

logo

ATLAS/CERN 2009 Multimedia Contest and Intern Program Produce an original short film or multimedia piece, incorporating material about ATLAS, the biggest Experiment on the famous LHC proton collider at CERN and you could receive an internship that will lead you to discover new horizons. If you’re selected, you’ll spend three months of fall 2009 at ATLAS/CERN, Switzerland, covering the excitement of physicists as they witness the first collisions produced by the LHC. An event that some have waited more than a decade for. The submission deadline is June 15, 2009, so get out those cameras and start rolling! Visit www.atlas.ch to register!

The Future of Earth

logo

Excerpts from James Lovelock’s lecture on the current climate crisis, global heating and the future of our planet. Will we evolve to become as integral to the planet as the plants and photosynthesis? Can we take up the challenge to see the Earth as one, emergent system, or organism? Our future depends upon that recognition today. Please check out the original content: www.youtube.com As well as the science behind the Gaia Hypothesis: en.wikipedia.org Music: sphongle [[Mabu: yes, looks like the shpongle meme is kicking off]]

Universe quantum theory… my point is: if comets etc are moving into the space using complicated mathematical formulas (that you are just learning about- because we are able now to follow their trajectories and sent satellites to intercept them in a certain point ) what about a superior entity (God) that oversee such strict movements and maybe there are other mathematical rules and science facts that you still need to learn about…smarter you become, more close to God you get.

Ayreon – To The Quasar – HQ

logo

From “The Universal Migrator Part II: Flight Of The Migrator” Album. Lyrics: Within a distant nebula in the Taurus zodiac I hear the wailing of a star, the weak pulse of a fading sun All its fuel is burning out and its light will fade to black I can’t ignore its hopeless shout as it fires its death cry out in space A star in Taurus lights up and outshines the galaxy A fleeting moment of glory in time and space A supernova resounds, a desperate symphony Leaving behind a beacon fallen from grace Lift your head up to the sky And hear the faraway cry of a dying star I heard its message from afar A frequent surge of sight and sound We approach the fallen neutron star Spinning round and round and round We attend this cosmic mass and we hear its sad lament But even stars and planets pass in this cold and everlasting place Lift your head up to the sky and hear the cry… Heading off into the core of a newborn galaxy We have reached a brilliant star-like source of energy This cosmic spectacle of radiance was formed Fifteen billion years ago when the universe was born To the quasar Beyond the milky way The redshift is high, a bright light in the sky To the dark star Beyond the light of day The gravity’s high, a black sun in the sky 3C273 As we approach the sea of light I’m forced to close my eyes I can feel the vibrant waves of centuries go by Then the pull of an unseen force is tearing us away Could it be we found the entrance to our passageway?

The Comets Tale 4 of 6 – This BBC Documentary looks at the Secrets of Death , Life and Gravity and the Ultimate Story of a Comet. The Historic origins in Mythology, but also their meaning within our Hub. This part looks at Comet composition, tail formation & the potential threats to the planet by looking at previous impacts and their environmental effects, such as through Air Bursts & examples like the 1908 Siberian Impact in Tunguska and the 1994 Jupiter impact of Comet Shoemaker-Levy (SL9). For more Information on the Tunguska event see en.wikipedia.org and also see www.psi.edu For more information on the 1994 Jupiter Shoemaker-Levy collision see eg www2.jpl.nasa.gov

NASA | Earth Science Week: Climate Change & The Global Ocean

logo

“Climate Change and The Global Ocean” is the first episode in the six-part series “Tides of Change”, exploring amazing NASA ocean science to celebrate Earth Science Week 2009. To find out more visit climate.nasa.gov Want more? Subscribe to NASA on itunes! phobos.apple.com Or get tweeted by NASA: twitter.com We know climate change can affect us, but does climate change alter something as vast, deep and mysterious as our oceans? For years, scientists have studied the world’s oceans by sending out ships and divers, deploying data-gathering buoys, and by taking aerial measurements from planes. But one of the better ways to understand oceans is to gain an even broader perspective – the view from space. nasa’s Earth observing satellites do more than just take pictures of our planet. High-tech sensors gather data, including ocean surface temperature, surface winds, sea level, circulation, and even marine life. Information the satellites obtain help us understand the complex interactions driving the world’s oceans today – and gain valuable insight into how the impacts of climate change on oceans might affect us on dry land.

2000s Decade Recap – Science and Space

logo

The new millennium began with questions about the dependability of technology. Well, the Y2K disaster never happened, and technology continued to be our best friend. With artificial hearts and entire face transplants being used with success, the human race was on its way to solving some of lifes huge problems and mysteries. One such unknown was the age of the Universe, a piece of information that was discovered in the 2000s. Space exploration began investigating our planetary neighbor Mars, and found proof that planet once housed water. In this video, www.watchmojo.com reviews these and more scientific milestones from the first decade of the new millennium.

In the last two decades, the rate of our world’s warming accelerated. Scientists predict that the globe will continue to warm over the course of the 21st century. Is this warming trend a reason for concern? After all, our world has witnessed extreme warm periods before, such as during the time of the dinosaurs. Earth …

Planet X Nibiru by Joe Rogan

logo

Alien beings that posed as gods called the Anunnaki are said to occupy another planet in our solar system (known to scientists as ‘Planet X’). This planet is called Nibiru, and is situated somewhere beyond Pluto. This planet, unlike other planets in our solar system, moves clockwise, rather than counter clockwise. It was a collision of Nibiru with another planet in our solar system which created Earth. Nibiru’s orbit passes thorough our solar system only once every 3600 years….
