Schrödinger's cat caught on quantum film

Schrödinger's cat is the poster child for quantum weirdness. Now it has been immortalised in a portrait created by one of the theory's strangest consequences: quantum entanglement.

These images were generated using a cat stencil and entangled photons. The really spooky part is that the photons used to generate the image never interacted with the stencil, while the photons that illuminated the stencil were never seen by the camera.

When two separate particles are entangled, measurements of their physical properties are correlated, and they effectively share a single quantum state. Gabriela Barreto Lemos at the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna and her colleagues used this quantum connection between particles to make these images of a cat without directly photographing it.

To do it, the researchers created yellow and red pairs of entangled photons. The yellow photons were fired at the cat stencil, while the red photons were sent to the camera. Thanks to their entanglement, the red photons formed the image of the cat because of the quantum link to their yellow twins.

The silicon stencil was transparent to red light and the camera could only detect red light. This demonstrates that the technique can image objects that are invisible to the detected photons.

unified field theory

The symbol known as the Sri Yantra is an ancient Hindu symbol comprised of nine triangles that are interlaced in such a way as to form 43 smaller triangles in a web said to be symbolic of the entire cosmos. The Sri Yantra also represents a very specific perspective on a 64 tetrahedron grid if viewed from down one of it's points. The 64 tetrahedron grid is also the foundational seed geometry of the fabric of the vacuum according toNassim Haramein's unified field theory. Everything is connected by the structure of space...

NASA's Mars rocket to launch on maiden voyage in 2018

NASA's Mars rocket to launch on maiden voyage in 2018

NASA's deep-space rocket -- the Space Launch System -- is the most powerful to date, designed to ferry humans to Mars. Scheduled to launch for the first time in 2018, it's the agency's first heavy-lift launch vehicle in over 40 years, and hopefully marks the first step for a manned Mars mission in the 2030s.

The rocket, which has been in development for three years, was officially approved by the space agency on August 27, which means a full commitment to the program.

"We are on a journey of scientific and human exploration that leads to Mars," said NASA Administrator Charles Bolden. "And we're firmly committed to building the launch vehicle and other supporting systems that will take us on that journey."

The SLS will carry the Orion spacecraft, which in turn will carry the Mars explorers. For its first test flight, the SLS will be configured with a 70-metric-ton lift capacity and carry an uncrewed Orion craft beyond low-Earth orbit. The final version of the rocket is slated for a lift capacity of 130 metric tons, which will enable missions to destinations as far as Mars.

"Our nation is embarked on an ambitious space exploration program, and we owe it to the American taxpayers to get it right," said Associate Administrator and review process overseer Robert Lightfoot. "After rigorous review, we're committing today to a funding level and readiness date that will keep us on track to sending humans to Mars in the 2030s -- and we're going to stand behind that commitment."

The Orion spacecraft is scheduled for an uncrewed test flight of its own on December 4 of this year, attached to a Delta IV Heavy rocket. This flight,Exploration Test Flight 1, will test several of the Orion's key systems, including avionics, heat shielding and parachutes.

"We are keeping each part of the program -- the rocket, ground systems, and Orion -- moving at its best possible speed toward the first integrated test launch," said NASA Exploration Systems Development director Bill Hill. "We are on a solid path toward an integrated mission and making progress in all three programs every day."

The first of the three SLS rockets is projected to cost $7.021 billion, and the entire project around $12 billion.

THE LOST CITY OF HERACLEION DISCOVERED!

It’s not everyday archaeologists uncover a lost, ancient city, let alone one of such importance and significance.  A city shrouded in myths and legend, the lost city of Heracleion (Pronounced “Hera-klee-on”… or perhaps “Hera-see-lee-on”… which is more fun, but probably less accurate) has recently been found 30 feet under the surface of the Mediterranean Sea in Aboukir Bay, near Alexandria.

The city was first rediscovered by French Archaeologist Dr. Franck Goddio and his team who first saw signs of it in 2000, and began a long geophysical survey of the ruins and environment.

Since it’s discovery, many ancient statues and artifacts have been recovered, as well as much information about who we are, and where we came from in our early Greek & Egyptian Origins.

These microbes have a truly ‘shocking’ diet

   These microbes have a truly ‘shocking’ diet

Some species of bacteria feed on electricity, are they the future of biomachines?

Electric bacteria 'eat' electricity. So far researchers have found that Shewanella and Geobacterlove to feast on electric power, and they are searching for more species.

As shocking as this diet may sound, microbiologist Kenneth Nealson from the University of Southern California in the US thinks this shouldn’t come as a surprise as life is basically a flow of electrons. He told New Scientist: “Life’s very clever… It figures out how to suck electrons out of everything we eat and keep them under control.”

These astute bacteria source their electrons from minerals. And if we were to compare them to humans it would be the equivalent of us shoving our fingers in a DC electrical socket to recharge, Nealson told New Scientist.

Nealson and his team have hooked bacteria to electrodes in the lab to see how the microbes work. Harnessing the power of these bacteria could lead to the development of self-powered devices and biomachines that can clean contaminated groundwater and sewage

THIS 8 YEAR OLD KID USES CRYSTAL GRIDS TO TRANSMUTE NEGATIVE ENERGY AND EXPLAINS HOW IT WORKS

The children of today are rumored to be far more consciously adept than our previous generations.  If thats true this might be a piece of supporting evidence of that.

In this video, 8 year old Adam introduces his latest crystal grid, which he calls a “web” grid. It pulls in dark energy and transmutes it to the light.

         A perfect negative crystal floating in space

MAGNESIUM aluminium oxide sure is a pretty mineral. It forms spinel, a gem coveted throughout history and whose red variant is sometimes confused with ruby. It was used in the Timur Ruby necklace made for Queen Victoria. And an egg-sized lump of the stuff, known as the Black Prince's Ruby, forms the centrepiece of the Imperial Crown. Both pieces are part of the British Crown Jewels, and there's an even bigger rock, the Samarian spinel, in the Iranian Crown Jewels.

The spinel in this photo is a tiddler by comparison, but no less beautiful and certainly more intriguing. The field of view of the image is 2.9 millimetres, which makes the floating octahedron in the middle less than half a millimetre wide. But get this: it's a "negative crystal". The octahedron is the outline of a space, and what looks at first like the sides of a solid crystal are actually the walls of a void inside a bigger lump of crystal.

"This is one of the most shockingly perfect negative crystals I have come across," says photographer Danny Sanchez, who is based in Los Angeles.
