For the Beauty that cannot be seen, For the honor of those whose shoulders we stand on, For the hope of those we aspire to become, And for the inspiration of those who will surpass our achievements. Music, beginning Omnibus End Music, Miles

What is a strangelet?: Strangelets are theorized cosmological objects composed of an exotic form of matter known as strange matter or quark matter. This form of matter is created in the cores of particularly massively neutron stars. In neutron stars, the remnants of collapsed stars with masses between 4 and 8 times that of our sun, pressure and temperature is so intense that the protons and electrons in atomic nuclei fuse to become neutrons. The resultant matter is sometimes referred to as neutronium, a sea of neutrons packed far more densely than conventional matter. Sometimes the pressure and gravity in the centres of neutron stars is so massive that the neutronium collapses into its constituent particles, quarks. This results in agglomerations of so-called strange quarks bound to each other directly much in the same manner that the transition from conventional star to neutron star results in seas of neutrons bound directly together. The names physicists have given this type of matter are “quark matter” or “strange matter”. This may be regarded as a phase change, like changing from a liquid to a solid, only at densities many orders of magnitude greater than those occuring in this solar system. It has been hypothesized that strangelets (sub-stellar agglomerations of strange matter) may be able to exist independently from the quark stars which created them. If so, there may be many strangelets in this universe, a possible explanation for the dark matter problem. Since …

Experience the gripping story – full of hope, crushing disappointment, dazzling ingenuity, bravery, and triumph in Hubble 3D, the seventh awe-inspiring film from the award-winning IMAX® Space Team. Through the power of IMAX® 3D, Hubble 3D will enable movie-goers to journey through distant galaxies to explore the grandeur and mysteries of our celestial surroundings, and accompany space-walking astronauts as they attempt the most difficult and important tasks in NASAs history. The film will offer an inspiring and unique look into the Hubble Space Telescopes legacy and highlight its profound impact on the way we view the universe and ourselves. Narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio, Hubble 3D reunites the Space Station 3D filmmaking team, led by Producer/Director Toni Myers. James Neihouse, Director of Photography, also doubles as the Astronaut crew trainer. Judy Carroll is Associate Producer, and Graeme Ferguson, Co-founder of IMAX and pioneer Producer of many IMAX space films, is Executive Producer. Hubble 3D is an IMAX and Warner Bros. Pictures production, in cooperation with National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Hubble 3D will blast off exclusively to IMAX and IMAX 3D theatres beginning March 19th, 2010.

The Laser Interferometry Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) is operated by Caltech and MIT, and is a collaboration of more than 600 scientists working towards one goal: the direct detection of the gravitational waves predicted by Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity. In the Summer of 2009, 23 students from different universities around the world descended on Caltech in Pasadena, CA, to conduct research contributing to the LIGO Project. While we were all working on different parts of this diverse project, some of us came together in the interest of spreading the science of LIGO to many more people. A lot of work (on top of research!) went into the production of this video, so we hope you enjoy it and learn a little about LIGO science. To learn more about LIGO, visit www.ligo.org. To help with LIGO at home, go to www.einsteinathome.org. Thanks for watching!!
