General Relativity. Gravity is not a physical “pulling force” like magnetism; it is a geometric consequence of matter bending the fabric of space-time. However, even when viewed through this geometric lens, the energy balance of the universe still holds true.…

Yin Yang – Part 4. The Expansion
As the universe expands and creates more space, it also creates more dark energy to fill that space. While this sounds like it breaks the fundamental laws of science, it is entirely allowed by the rules of physics. Here is…
Yin Yang Part 3. The Universe is Expanding – into Nothing
The Universe is Expanding – into Nothing The universe is not expanding into anything because there is no “outside” or empty space surrounding it. Instead, the universe is the fabric of space itself, and that fabric is stretching.When astronomers say…
Part 1 – Early Supermassive Black Holes. ‘failed’ Collapsed New Universes?
Are Supermassive Black Holes found in the Early Universe ‘failed’ Collapsed New Universes? I asked this of Google Gemini and got this reponse. The James Webb Space Telescope has recently discovered supermassive black holes (SMBHs) existing just a few hundred…

And Finally, the Last Word on AI, Energy and Coffee.
Was it worth it?There’s a lot of talk about the vast amount of energy AI uses. This got me wondering what damage to the environment I had done by asking Gemini for answers to pointless questions about the best way…
Dear Gemini, should I heat the milk in the microwave before pouring it into the coffee?
Now we know that the amount of energy it takes to heat the milk separately is less than the energy to heat the coffee with the milk added, it stands to reason that it’s cheaper to heat the milk and…
