I'm pretty sure life exists out there too. The whole Panspermic mechanism theory is pretty plausible.

(Aug 16 07, 10:20)More and more people are suggesting that earth was seeded, or front loaded.

If God had a name, what would it be? (bitch)

Just a stranger on the bus

(Aug 16 07, 10:34)I believe it was God.
Many people believe that aliens far more advanced that we, could have found a nice biosphere-friendly planet and gone to town. Think about what humans are already capable of doing with genetic engineering.

OK, it's friday now, but this was too cool:

And we return with Science Thursdays. I'll start with a whole 'lotta nothing:

Can't wait 'til there's more info on that billion-light-year wide void - from the little I know, it seems like its existence is already throwing a spanner in the works with regard to our understanding of dark matter and Big Bang theory. Anything that serves to undermine our current interpretation of the CMB is all-good from my perspective - I dislike it as being too highly anthropocentric.

Not really 'science', but still interesting..

FTL Photons get speeding ticket
But not everyone is convinced the pair have interpreted their results correctly.
Some argue that what the scientists have observed can be explained by the so-called Hartman Effect. This predicts that "the tunneling time becomes independent of barrier length for thick enough barriers, ultimately resulting in unbounded tunneling velocities".
What this means is that single photons can appear to travel faster than the speed of light. But researchers suggest that tunneling time should not be considered as a transit time, but rather as a "cavity lifetime".
Herbert G Winful from the University of Michigan explains in this paper that anomalously short delays in barrier tunneling "should not be linked to a velocity since evanescent waves do not propagate".
So, Einstein is off the hook, and thus restored to his rightful place as top boffin. ®
