Teleportation is now becoming a reality?
When particles interact with each other they may become entangled,i.e, they may become connected even if they are separated by a large distance such that an action done on one affects the other. China’s Micius Satellite which was solely dedicated to quantum information science was launched last year to transmit the entangled photon pairs. OnceContinue reading “Teleportation is now becoming a reality?”
Fiction turned Reality?

She never received any recognition from her field for her contributions to Medical Science. Gosling wasContinue reading “The DNA Scandle”
frolicking with the universe
Nature is a poetChaos its museThey dance in abrupt harmonySpilling afar, across and throughPainting pastels of realityAlong with specks of neon too…A gasp of lightBubbling through a dark oceanDots and dots Brought by hundreds of motionsSpeckles sparkleGrappled by forceWeighing on the mattressMaking a universal Rose
Moon OR Muon?
Recently, I was reading about a particle called the Higgs Boson , it revolutionised quantum science. While doing so I came across a word which I kept reading as the moon for almost 3/4th of the article and then realised the word was muon. A moon is a macroscopic object — a satellite, a celestialContinue reading “Moon OR Muon?”
Oh– but we are colourful creatures!
The month of June is celebrated worldwide as pride month. I wanted to post this article yesterday, but decided against it as pride mustn’t just be celebrated during the month of June and forgotten for the rest of the year. We are going to dive into the depths and talk about a very unrecognised categoryContinue reading “Oh– but we are colourful creatures!”
The woman who caught stars on paper
A life spent in the routine of science need not destroy the attractive human element of a women’s nature. Annie Jump Cannon ANNIE JUMP CANNON Astronomer She was the first to attempt cataloguing, organizing stars on the bases of their temperatures and spectral types. Edward Pickering believed that Annie was the only person in theContinue reading “The woman who caught stars on paper”
Unsung Heroes: Harvard Computers
14 billion years ago, the universe was packed up in one single point, scientists call this moment in time The Big Bang. This is a widely accepted theory, which has been postulated due to the assistance of many scientists. One of the major contributors to this discovery, and not given enough credit for it inContinue reading “Unsung Heroes: Harvard Computers”
