be such a thing, it alone must be a perfect, thus leading to an assumption of there being an intelligent designer for these infinite amounts. Philosopher Robin Collin had argued against this by mentioning, of a "many-universes generator" being the source of these infinite universes if such a thing existed. It alone must have an intelligent designer behind it, explaining how the idea comes to mind and how it was created. Also, there cannot be an infinite amount of anything because like everything

The center of the Milky Way is a fascinating region, not solely because of its enigmatic characteristics but also because of its complexities. The center of the Milky Way, initially, was described as a “mini-spiral” of hot gas, however as years passed, scientists have realized that this mysterious center was not a spiral, but a distinct, separate point of radio emission corresponding to the exact center of the Galaxy. This point is referred to as “Sagittarius A* or ‘Sgr A*’” and today, Sgr A* is

How would the human psyche respond to a cyclic universe? For this paper, I am going to demonstrate the possibility of a cyclic galaxy and the effects this could have on human perception of time. The universe is a large and complex entity. Scientists research and experiment to discover more information about the universe in either small or large ranges. The scientific community will come up with theories trying to explain the universe, and usually a large section of the scientific community will support

There are things in the universe that are the size of a atom but have the mass of a large mountain. Being one of the most mysterious objects in the universe, Black holes are one of the main interest of research for astronomers and astrophysics. These things consume everything that comes in contact, or near them. Now scientist have come up with some information on how they work, how they are formed, and what they do even how big they can get. How are black holes formed and what causes them to form

There are many different ideas and concepts of how humans came to the earth. Some believe in the theory of evolution, and others believe in a higher source who put us all on this planet. Scientific or not, everyone believes in something and today I will be talking about one theory that Archaeologists proved to be true. This all began at a site called Laetoli, where these Archaeologists have found footprints that led them to answers to many of their hypothesis. I plan on telling you all about these

They are given full haptic suits that allow them to blur the line between reality and video games. Their new reality resides in a place where
