Poem: The Train Going to the Taxi to the Coach to the Plane to the Taxi to the Car to Green Bank Observatory!
By Andrew Thornett On the LRO Busman’s Holiday Summer 2026. I ambled, I hurried, I strolled with delight,Then rushed to the station at dawn’s early light.I boarded, departed, proceeded, set…
If an electron or a black hole has intrinsic properties regardless of whether anyone observes them, why shouldn’t the cat also have a definite state?
This is a deep and important question. The key point is that Schrödinger’s cat was never intended to prove that observation creates reality. In fact, Erwin Schrödinger invented the thought…
Suppose the only thing in the Universe is a single black hole. Can we meaningfully say whether it is spinning?
That’s another profound question, and it touches on active areas of theoretical physics. Suppose the only thing in the Universe is a single black hole. Can we meaningfully say whether…
Suppose there were only one particle in the entire Universe. What would it mean to say it has spin?
That’s an excellent question, and it gets right to the heart of what physicists mean by spin. The short answer is that a fundamental particle’s spin is not literally the…
What is a Faucault pendulum and what does it demonstrate?
A Foucault pendulum is a simple but elegant experiment that demonstrates that the Earth rotates. It consists of a very long pendulum (often 10–70 m long) with a heavy bob.…
Which state hosts Green Bank Observatory in the USA?
