The scientists have therefore succeeded in bridging the gap from the microworld to the macroworld, and thus from quantum mechanics to the General Theory of Relativity

But can they do the math? Conceptual and descriptive models are powerful heuristics and empirical results are the coin of the realm, but in the end, even Einstein had to have the help of professional mathematicians to work out the abstruse mathematical basis of his theories.

So I always wonder, where are the numbers guys, who live far beyond mortal ken?

That wAs easy. Now can we have an explanation of the proposed invasion of Syr?

I like it. It makes sense.

Einstein’s original “Theory of Relativity” went like this:

“Everyone has relatives”!

(except perhaps for Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, test-tube creations from primordel slime).

MGaye theorem, ‘everything is everything’.

Still ignoring the biggest source of energy in the universe, in order to pretend that one of the weakest did the job.

Order up a bunch of imaginary dark matter folks.

Scissors cuts paper,
paper covers rock,
rock crushes lizard,
lizard poisons Spock,
Spock smashes scissors,
scissors decapitates lizard,
lizard eats paper,
paper disproves Spock,
Spock vaporizes rock,
and as it always has, rock crushes scissors.

SO.... these tiny cells perform cohesively. Larger structures are made of these tiny cells. Those larger structures are confined somehow into even larger structures and that is all contained within some super-super structure.

Sounds a lot like the constituency of ‘matter’, including our bodies.

Pot smokers who thought that we were just bacteria on a cell that made up an organ that was with other organs inside a larger structure that kept them ‘together’... just might have been right.

Oriti and his colleagues thus see themselves at the start of a difficult but promising journey. Their current solution is valid only for a homogeneous universe - but our real world is much more complex. It contains inhomogeneities, such as planets, stars and galaxies.

They've hit a brick wall so it's time to do a press release.

If it continues to prove successful, the researchers could perhaps use it to explain also the assumed inflationary expansion of the universe shortly after the Big Bang as well, and the nature of the mysterious dark energy.

And why a slice of toast when dropped always lands buttered side down.

According to Krauss and Dawkins, this was settled years ago.

Quantum Gravity: The latest effort to harmonize or unify the two most important, yet incompatible, theories of physics. These two "Master" Theories are Einstein's Theory (General) Relativity, and Quantum Theory as developed by a host of 20th-century physicists. The first-mentioned theory accounts for all the very large things in the Universe, like planets, stars, and galaxies, while the second theory is meant to account for all the very tiny things in the world, such as: molecules, atoms, electrons, neutrons, baryons, hadrons, etcetera, etcetera, right on down to quarks, with all their Charm and Beauty (a little inside humor there). Logically, there are just three ways that physicists can proceed: 1) Form a theory which describes the micro-world from a Relativistic -instead of a Quantum- perspective, or: 2) Form a theory which describes the Mega-world from Quantum -instead of a Relativistic- perspective, or: 3) form a yet-to-be-named theory which describes a unified view of the entire universe, from left to right, up to down, past to future, and mega to micro. This third theory would be neither Relativistic nor Quantum in nature, but would nevertheless be shown to mathematically lead to either a Relativistic or Quantum view, depending on the scale or perspective one chooses. Despite what this press-release implies, physicists are both currently and heavily doing research along all three possible lines of research that I have just outlined.
