Critics complain that Maslow’s hierarchy of needs focuses too much on the West. Yet other cultures often have similar ideas about personal development.
Rest assured: Kooky ideas like the Earth being flat or vaccines causing autism are nothing new. Humanity has had worse ideas before.
It’s not a lack of motivation, intelligence, or capability. Here’s how to open a space. Over the past 20 years, the number of bachelor’s degrees awarded in physics has more than […]
The solar eclipse of May 29, 1919, was the nail in the coffin of a Newtonian Universe. On May 29, 1919, the world changed forever. For hundreds of years, Isaac […]
Some books had a profound influence on Einstein’s thinking and theories.
Famous inventors and scientists submission to the daily grind
LIGO just announced the second neutron star-neutron star merger ever seen in gravitational waves. It doesn’t match the first. On August 17, 2017, an event occurred that forever changed how we […]
We think of self-actualization as a lofty goal, but research suggests it may just be another way of obeying our biological programming.
When he was developing his famous hierarchy of needs, Abraham Maslow cited 9 historical figures that achieved self-actualization.
It’s perhaps the most famous equation of all, with lessons about reality for every one of us. If you’ve ever heard of Albert Einstein, chances are you know at least one […]
Eight-dimensional octonions may hold the clues to solve fundamental mysteries.
From literature to physics, the annual Nobel Prizes aim to highlight the most groundbreaking achievements in every field.
These photos of scientific heroes and accomplishments inspire awe and curiosity.
We live in contradiction. How we confront that fact matters.
It all depends on what type of creativity we’re discussing.
There is no one answer. But there are 10.
A new experiment shows that two observers can experience divergent realities (if they go subatomic).
We put presidents on our money, but isn’t there more to life than politics?
Einstein’s God is infinitely superior but impersonal and intangible, subtle but not malicious. He is also firmly determinist.
Every object in the Universe is constrained by the laws of physics. Does this mean there are any black holes that shouldn’t exist? When it comes to the objects that […]
A new study on virtual embodiment explores the “surprising plasticity of the brain’s body representation,” and suggests that virtual reality representations can improve cognition.
The world of particle physics sure does have surprises, even for the most educated of physicists out there. If you ever take a visit to the physical site of CERN, where […]
That’s a sharp increase from the 1960s when it took the same share of scientists an average of 35 years to drop out of academia.
A new study may change the face of astrophysics.
If you think about the way a gravitational wave detector works, you might encounter a paradox. Here’s the solution. One of the greatest scientific achievements in all of human history […]
When a country’s educated or entrepreneurial citizens leave all at once, the phenomenon is called “human capital flight” or “brain drain”.
