Quantumaniac is where it’s at - and by ‘it’ I mean awesome.

Over here I post a ton of physics / math / general interesting science related posts. I try to be as informative as possible, all while posting fascinating things that hopefully enlighten us both a little to the mysteries of our truly wondrous universe(s?). Plus, how would you know if the blog exists or not unless you observe it? Boom, just pulled the Schrödinger’s cat card. Now you have to check it out - trust me, it said so in an equation somewhere.

Quantum Questions?

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

Happy Carl Sagan Day! On November 9th, what would have been Sagan’s 77th birthday, fans across the world are remembering his legacy through Carl Sagan Day. One of the most notable science popularizers (like Michio Kaku) in modern history, Sagan is most well remembered for his true passion for science and our universe.   Here are a few great quotes:  “If you want to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe.” “Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere.”  “Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.” “In the vastness of space and the immensity of time, it is my joy to share a planet and an epoch with Annie (his wife).”  “The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of star stuff.”
