the physics of star trek by lawrence m krauss

It is the most profound shift in thinking, perhaps the most profound puzzle, in the latter half of the 20th century. They could meet, discuss, relax on the beach, and take a trip to the nearby private island retreat of the science philanthropist Jeffrey Epstein, who funded the event.įor Krauss, what came out of the conference was the over-riding issue that 'there appears to be energy of empty space that isn't zero! This flies in the face of all conventional wisdom in theoretical particle physics. The topic of the meeting was 'Confronting Gravity.' Krauss intended to have 'a meeting where people would look forward to the key issues facing fundamental physics and cosmology'. Krauss scuba diving to meet Atlantis Submarine Lawrence Krauss and Stephen Hawking on the way to Atlantis Submarineįrank Wilczek, Betsy Devine, and Alan Guth Stephen Hawking, David Gross, Kip Thorne, Lisa Randall Thomas, which included an all-star cast of cutting-edge theorists and physicists.

Physicist/cosmologist Lawrence Krauss, who recently was featured on Edge(' How Do You Fed-ex the Pope?'), recently convened a physics conference on St. THE ENERGY OF EMPTY SPACE THAT ISN'T ZERO We had three Nobel laureates: Gerard 't Hooft, David Gross, Frank Wilczek well-known cosmologists and physicists such as Jim Peebles at Princeton, Alan Guth at MIT, Kip Thorne at Caltech, Lisa Randall at Harvard experimentalists, such as Barry Barish of LIGO, the gravitational wave observatory we had observational cosmologists, people looking at the cosmic microwave background we had Maria Spiropulu from CERN, who's working on the Large Hadron Collider-which, a decade ago, people wouldn't have thought it was a probe of gravity, but now due to recent work in the possibility of extra dimensions it might be. I invited a group of cosmologists, experimentalists, theorists, and particle physicists.
