Terence Kealey gives a talk on why science is not a public good, and why it is be better off done in the private sector. In this part Kealey answers a question about whether the private sector would fund research into pure science subjects like number theory despite a seeming lack of immediate commercial applications.

Another video, this time, with some home made optics experiment… I believe that gravity works as a piramid. At center, space is shorter. Outside, space is larger. The light speed depends from the distance between the points in my graphics. All was made with blender. A pyramid Prisma, a lighter and a plastic plate. On the graphics, the net represents the ways that light could take for accelerate…if these spaces remains stable, for exemple, inside of a gravitational field, light will have a constant speed. but if they change too much, light will slow down his speed. If the acceleration increases or decresase over the square of the stable velocity, matter will be generated. If the acceleration is enough, mass is transfered into the past…keeping universe nucleous mass estable…this happens continuously, and this is the reason for the ilusion of the universe expansion… NOTE: The pictures are the light focused on the pyramid. From the top of the pyramid (from lower to higher density). And from underground pyramid (from higher to lower density). The white plastic was used as a projection screen. In the first pictures, pyramid is above it and light enters from underground, forming the circular shape when top viewed. In the other photos, the prisma is up-side-down, with light entering from the top. The patterns on the projected light seems as a flower then…or even, a galaxy shape, depending on the angles of light focus…:-) You should see a cross on the photos, but …

Pulsars are highly magnetized, rotating neutron stars that emit a beam of electromagnetic radiation. The observed periods of their pulses range from 1.4 milliseconds to 8.5 seconds.[1] The radiation can only be observed when the beam of emission is pointing towards the Earth. This is called the lighthouse effect and gives rise to the pulsed nature that gives pulsars their name. Because neutron stars are very dense objects, the rotation period and thus the interval between observed pulses is very regular. For some pulsars, the regularity of pulsation is as precise as an atomic clock.[2] A few pulsars are known to have planets orbiting them, as in the case of PSR B1257+12. Werner Becker of the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics said in 2006, “The theory of how pulsars emit their radiation is still in its infancy, even after nearly forty years of work.”[3]

pale blue dot – carl sagan part 8 of 9 Earth is just a small ordinary blue dot, compared to other blue planets it is puny. There many billions of blue planets , and most are better then this trash planet, how ever carl sagan is nice. carl sagan- ” Look again at that dot. That’s here, that’s home, that’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar,” every “supreme leader,” every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion …
