Mysteries of Physics
Mysteries of Physics I just read We Have No Idea by Jorge Cham and Daniel Whiteson, a book about all the things we don’t know about the physical universe. These include: dark matter, dark energy, the basic elements of matter, the nature of mass, why gravity is so different from other forces, the nature of […]
Eloise
Eloise She was just a bright young thing Not yet fully grown But she caught my eye across the room She cleverly made herself known So I took her home with me And introduced her to her new friends It was tense at first But soon they were happy as larks Oh […]
