We zien sterren aan de "hemel" en soms ook manen en planeten indien het zonlicht daarop weerkaatst. Daar tussenin lijkt niets te zijn. In de Griekse Oudheid dacht men nog dat ether het vijfde element was - naast aarde, lucht, vuur, en water. Wat die "leegte" dan wel is, dat blijft een vraag. Velen denken dat er "meer" is tussen hemel en aarde. Ik ook. Echter, dat...
Tuesday's blog, The wheel of Life, Nature & Universe, included a question that has been on my mind for a very, very long time: is it possible that the Universe already existed before planets and stars appeared?? Actually, that question is more simple than its alternative, being the birth of the Universe. Any birth requires "parents". The birth of a Universe...
In 2024, I wrote my blog: Does the aether represent “dark” matter & energy? The 2023 Nautilus article below has an interesting claim: The void in the universe is alive. I must agree considering if only considering the existence of viruses (eg, astrovirology, Fred Hoyle, NatGeo, NIH, panspermia). I suppose that our houses have a certain ratio between something...

This yearning-like feeling is new to me. I have always liked my feeling of solitude but I'm (far) less sure about this new feeling. As I had always suspected, my inspiration is taking a dive....
While writing my previous blog - Dark matter: complexity or simplicity?? - a thought appeared in my mind: is the aether responsible for reflecting “dark” or invisible matter and energy? My choice of the word reflecting is on purpose. Another angle is this one: how can “several” suns illuminate an entire universe?? Moreover, the aether could (also) explain the tired...
The Greek philosopher Socrates (c.470–399 BC) once wrote: "For I was conscious that I knew practically nothing...". Later, Plato changed that into: I know that I know nothing (Wiki). Probably, Artificial Intelligence aims to know (most of) everything. Is it even possible to know everything?? In my view, the expansion of the Universe is related to storing ALL...
