Thomas Edison’s invention of the lightbulb was so significant that it is still effecting society to today. Thomas Edison’s lightbulb had to consist of three things‚ the first being a durable incandescent material‚ the second thing the lightbulb needed was to eliminate the oxygenation from the bulb‚ and the last thing the lightbulb needed was a filament material of high resistance. The first lightbulb was going to be made out of platinum‚ however‚ platinum was very expensive to distribute to homes

THe Pillars of the Big bang theory THE 3 PILLARS OF THE BIG BANG THEORY In the beginning there was nothing-no time to describe ‘when’ or no space to fill matter in. From this void sprung our universe when time and space came into existence as one entity. Despite its name the big bang theory isn’t really a theory about a bang at all. It is really only a theory about the aftermath of a bang (Allen Guth). The Big Bang theory is widely accepted by modern scientists‚ some however still doubt

Around 1923 Alexander Gurwitsch discovers an "ultraweak" photon emission from living systems (onions‚ yeast‚...)‚ since he suggested connections between photon emission and cell division rate. He calls this photonemission "mitogenetic radiation". His experiments indicate that the wavelength is in the range around 260 nm (Bibliography under Gurwisch and also Ruth (1977‚ 1979)). Around 1950: Russian scientists rediscover "ultraweak photon emission" from living organisms. Most results are published

literally a photon‚ a tiny moving particle. If a photon of light hits another object it can impart energy to that object. This is similar to a game of pool in which a cue ball hits an object ball and causes it to move. If a photon of light hits a molecule in just the right angle and is moving just the right speed‚ then it will cause the molecule it hits to eject an electron (Brown & Schwartz‚ 2009). Just as a person playing pool cannot hit a ball from any angle and make a shot‚ a photon of light cannot

the supernovas are becoming dimmer‚ which means they are getting closer instead of farther away. They were able to show that dark energy has an influence on light particles and photons. When a photon passes a galaxy it falls into the gravitational pull‚ and the dark energy because it repulses gravity makes the photon pass right through the galaxy with even more energy than when it entered. These findings make dark energy completely independent of the supernova observations. Astronomers have found

Sun light vs articical light One of the main benefits of artificial light is that you can control how many hours of light per day your plants receive. This way‚ those living in northern or southern latitudes can provide their plants with light for growth and development even when the sun sets early‚ in essence tricking the plants into believing that it is summertime and that they should continue to grow rather than become dormant or‚ in the case of annuals‚ die. In addition‚ your plants will receive

However‚ one day Bob felt that his leadership was at stake because a new brilliant scientist‚ Fester‚ was hired into the Simmons Laboratories and placed in Bob Knowlton’s work group. Fester demonstrated that his skills as a photon manager were‚ perhaps better than Bob’s. Jerrold‚ Bob and Fester’s boss‚ was extremely impressed with Fester and
