Dad was in business and developed some of the first business math. Mom was a beautician, the creative type, but also a lover of nature. My father was brought up …

In order to look at all the subsystems of our condensed universe that we call REAL, first let’s look at a mathematical expression written down by Galileo. It’s …

The Creation of Space

* * Published experiments found on this website are proportional to what happens as the universe expands due to mass-density instabilities in the universe. The exact steps in the exact solution for the density differences (instability) of our expanding universe is given in Hydrodynamic and Hydromagnetic Stability (International Series of Monographs on Physics): Chandrasekhar, S.: 9780486640716: …
