US still has space ambitions: NASA chiefWashington (AFP) Feb 2, 2010 A US decision to scrap plans to return to the moon does not mean it is abandoning its space ambitions, NASA's chief told Congress Tuesday. "We must invest in fundamentally new innovations for space technology and new ways of doing business if we are to develop a space exploration and development program that is truly sustainable over the long term," NASA administrator Charles Bolden said at the National Press Club the day after President Barack Obama outlined new space priorities in the 2011 budget. ... read more |

In Alejandro Jenkins' case, the question refers not to whether life exists elsewhere in the universe, but whether it exists in other universes outside of our own. While that might be a mind-blowing concept for the layperson to ponder, it's all in a day's work for Jenkins, a postdoctoral associate in theoretical high-energy physics at The Florida State University. In fact, his deep thoughts on the hypothetical "multiverse" - think of it as a mega-universe full ... read more |
