Are ghosts real?

 Are ghosts real?  This is a good question. Things like reality are subjective things. And things can be real to some other person, and they are not real to some other person. This is the thing that we must remember when we talk about things like ghosts. In many theories. Ghosts are a psychological phenomenon.  When people see ghosts, they don't always see dead people. They might see ex-leaders who went to other work. They might smell those ex-leaders candies and aftershaves even if they are not at the same workplace or in the office for years.  "A significant proportion of Americans believe in ghosts, with many claiming personal encounters. However, despite the prevalence of recording devices, concrete evidence for the existence of ghosts remains elusive." (ScitechDaily.com/Are Ghosts Real? Examining the Scientific Evidence) In this model, ghosts are flashbacks from the past. In that model, traumatic stress like PTSD can explain things like ghost cars or something l...

The Bell family mystery and strange namesake The Bell is "Die Glocke" in German.

The Bell family mystery and strange namesake The Bell is "Die Glocke" in German.  The Bell family mystery is one thing that popular culture made famous. And in fact, nobody knows if there ever lived family name Bell in the entire USA.  The Blair Witch Project is a fictional horror movie based is in the story of Bell mystery. The Bell Mystery is a folk story whose origin was in the 1890s. The things that claimed to happen to the Bell family happened in 1820, if we believe those stories written in 1890's.  But the fact is this. There is no evidence about the existence of the Bell family and their mysterious Witch. In some versions and psychological models, the modern horror film is connected with some old novel. That thing makes people feel that the originally fictional story was true. Maybe most of the people didn't even care if those old stories were true or not. They might just search for data about those old witch stories. And that thing brought the old story about ...

Researchers linked the FRBs (Fast Radio Bursts) with star quakes.

    Researchers linked the FRBs (Fast Radio Bursts) with star quakes.  When FRB hits a star it transfers energy to that object. That thing causes the shockwave in plasma, which we see as a star quake. FRBs are mysterious high energy, short-term radio signals with unknown origins.  Researchers say that the FRB can cause the end of the planets more often than GRBs or XRBs (Gamma- or X-ray bursts). Radio waves interact more powerfully with the metal core of planets. And that thing causes acceleration in natural fission in the planet's nucleus. Same way. FRBs can raise the temperature in the star because it transfers energy into it. And that rise in energy level rises.  The radiation that affects all planets rises. FRB involves a very high energy level. And theoretically, that energy can captured by using radio antennas. Then that FRB can conducted on capacitors. And they could be used as a power source. In reality, the practical solutions are hard to make because p...

The secret code in nature: plants "talking" to each other.

The secret code in nature: plants "talking" to each other.  Recently, I wrote that maybe plants are not intelligent. But in this moment I must say that there could be intelligences that cannot communicate with us. The fact is that plants communicate. But are they intelligent, that is the key question. Plant intelligence is one of the most interesting things in the world. Plants send information to each other. And that information involves things like what kinds of nutrients and what kinds of damage the plants get.  When plants have enough nutrients, they send more pheromones than plants that do have not enough nutrients. Same way. If plants are sick, the fungi will start to eat that plant away. And that fungi sends other pheromones to the air. When we talk about plant intelligence, we should ask: are those things conscious? Can plants control their behavior? When pheromones impact cells. That thing makes them grow in a certain direction. The communication between plants is an...

Warped Milky Way can give many answers.

    Warped Milky Way can give many answers.  There is a star cluster near Sagittarius A*, that should not exist.  The reason why star cluster IRS13 is the thing that should not be is that those stars are too young. Stars near the galaxy's core are usually older, and the reason why star cluster IRS13 is younger than it should be could be the result of impacting gasses somewhere near Sagittarius A*.  The problem is where that impacting gas comes from. The answer could be that the other Milky Way steals material from Sagittarius A*. In that place, the donut-shaped gravitational field just pulls energy and particles out from the Sagittarius A*. Those impacts can create stars.  The Milky Way's warped shape could tell something about the nature of dark energy and dark matter. If we think that electromagnetic radiation's wavelength is long enough. We would see those waves virtually straight. If the wavelength of the radiation is lightyears. We might not see that t...

Is the origin of dark energy in superstrings or photons?

     Is the origin of dark energy in superstrings or photons?  Dark energy dominates the universe. That term means wave movement whose origin is unknown. Some researchers introduced that dark energy forms because of universe expansion.  Energy and particles form the entirety that we call the universe. So when we think that the universe's expansion is like a balloon, we should think that this expanding balloon is in a vacuum. That introduces the situation that no more material and energy is coming into that balloon than there already exists. If the universe's expansion forms dark energy. the reason for that is when the size of the universe expands the quantum field's pressure is turning lower. That causes vaporization in particles. That means particles turn into wave movement. And that thing could be the origin of the dark energy.  When the universe expands, particle's size expands.  But we always forget that when the universe expands. The material in i...

Singularity and its physical shape are interesting things.

    Singularity and its physical shape are interesting things. "Once you cross the threshold to form a black hole, everything inside the event horizon crunches down to a singularity that is, at most, one-dimensional. No 3D structures can survive intact. However, one interesting coordinate transformation shows that every point in the interior of this black hole maps 1-to-1 with a point on the outside, raising the mathematically interesting possibility that the interior of each black hole gives rise to a baby universe inside of it, and the possibility that our Universe itself may have arisen from a black hole in a pre-existing universe prior to our own". (BigThink/Ask Ethan: Are singularities physically real?) When we think about the singularity and its shape. That is the point. Where time, material, and space are as an entirety. And that's why it's hard to model that point. It's hard to think that time is part of something or it's in something.  Time affects si...

Is a protoplanet called Theia the source of gold platinum and Earth's mysterious gravitational hole over the Indian Ocean.

   Is a protoplanet called Theia the source of gold platinum and Earth's mysterious gravitational hole over the Indian Ocean.  Is the protoplanet called Theia the former of the gold and platinum in Earth's mantle? In the new theory, the same protoplanet that formed the Moon created also platinum and gold in our planet's mantle. When that protoplanet impacted Earth, which still was liquid, the shockwave started to travel through liquid Earth. That powerful shockwave caused a fusion reaction where atomic nuclei impacted together.  And that impact might explain gold and platinum on our planet. Theia might be one source of the Zealand missing continent near New Zealand. If that continent formed from Theia impact, and fell to Earth's mantle because material at that point was heavier than Earth. Theia's remnants remain in Earth's mantle. In some models, Theia was a remnant of some larger protoplanet. That means it could formed of heavier elements than the Earth's ...

Do trees have feelings? Probably not.

     Do trees have feelings? Probably not.  The plant intelligence is a fascinating thing. But when we are talking about plant intelligence and the ability to exchange information, that doesn't mean that plants can think or have feelings. The ability to exchange information between individuals doesn't mean that those individuals can think. If trees or other plants can exchange primitive information using pheromones like enough water, that doesn't mean that trees are talking to us.  This information can be simple. If some trees send lots of pheromones they are at a suitable place. The number of pollen determines which side the other tree makes its inflorescence. When we cut some plants, that creature makes lots of flowers. And the reason for that could be that water flow in its cells ends. And to guarantee that its genomes will transfer to other plants that cut plant creates lots of flowers. But that thing doesn't mean that those plants have feelings.  "Rese...

There is lots of carbon and water in samples that Osiris REx took from Asteroid Bennu.

    There is lots of carbon and water in samples that Osiris REx took from Asteroid Bennu. There is lots of carbon and water in samples that Osiris REx took from Asteroid Bennu. This is an important thing. If we search for the origin of life. Asteroid Bennu is about 4,5 billion years old. Bennu's location is at a longer distance from the Sun than the asteroid where the Japanese took their samples to Earth. That means minerals on Bennu faced less electromagnetic radiation and other changes.  Sometimes researchers think. Bennu might be part of some protoplanet that some catastrophe destroyed in the early solar system. There are also remnants of clay. That means the protoplanet might have water on its shell or atmosphere. The clay could form when that protoplanet is destroyed by gravity or impact.  In that process, water impacts with minerals that fly away from that destroying protoplanets. The effect raised the speed of those particles to a hypersonic level. ...

There is CO2 in Jupiter's icy moon Europa. (Also, primitive organisms can travel between planets as spores)

   There is CO2 in Jupiter's icy moon Europa.  There is a potential hub for extraterrestrial life in Jupiter's Europa moon. The JWST telescope found carbon dioxide from that icy moon. And that thing increases the possibility that there are some kind of primitive lifeforms under the ice of that moon.  The CO2 emission can form in other chemical reactions. But one source of carbon dioxide emission is always lifeforms. The metabolism in cells forms that gas. That's why carbon dioxide emission on Europa moon is interesting and same time scary thing.  If there are some kind of lifeforms under the ice of those icy moons those lifeforms could be similar to lifeforms that live around the black smokers at the bottom of the ocean. And that possibility causes re-estimation about the possible manned- or unmanned flight to those moons. If there is some kind of life forms. It's a risk. That Earth viruses infect those lifeforms. There is a possibility that the virus stays "ali...

JWST found objects called "jumbos".

 JWST found objects called "jumbos".  In astronomy "jumbo" means the extremely large and hot exoplanets. Or those objects are between stars and planets. The temperature is about 1000 Celsius. And their size is about Jupiter. Mostly those objects involve water vapor and methane. The remarkable thing about those "Jumbos" is that they are pairs. And that causes the theory that maybe those Jumbos were parts of red dwarfs. The fast-spinning red dwarf can turn into two planetary objects.  So centripetal force can rip the red dwarf into two pieces. This might be the reason why those "jumbo-planets" form a binary planetary system. Those binary planetary systems are two planets that orbit each other. The binary planetary systems can orbit their star. Or they can be rogue planets.  The image portrays a planetary nebula. The first image is taken by using short wavelengths. The other is in the same area. And there is used longer waves. The detail that looks ...

Wobbling jets of supermassive black hole. And intelligent universe theory.

  Wobbling jets of supermassive black hole. And intelligent universe theory.  A wobbling beam of M-87 galaxy is evidence of incredible.   The wobbling beam around the M-87 spiral galaxy tells that the supermassive black hole in its center wobbles. The reason for that could be asymmetry in the material that falls into the black hole. And if M-87 is full of cosmic voids or there is another black hole near the beam. That can cause the wobbling movement of the jet or beam of the supermassive black hole.  That thing is incredible. Because normally, there is only another black hole that can wobble the black hole. Of course, things like cosmic voids can also cause an effect where energy bursts from the black holes and turns asymmetric. And there is the possibility that small cosmic voids cause an effect where some kind of wave movement travels away from that black hole asymmetrically. In wild visions, the small cosmic voids can cause a situation where black hole vapori...
