Why do you think the Moon often appears in magical stories (from a physics point of view, of course)?
Oh yes, I have prepared a little surprise and expanded the topic. Actually I realized that geodesics are not the whole story I wanted to tell.
I dug up my old favorite book on GR and remembered that there are also worldlines.
So. Every o...
I decided to add a little interactivity, a day before the post I will ask you a question related to the topic of the post. I think it will be more interesting and the information will be better remembered.
Let's begin!
A geodesic is the ...
In Newtonâs classic gravity works only on masses. So for a long time people thought light doesnât give a fuck about gravity.
But Einstein said you think wrong.
Gravity is not a "force" that pulls something. It's the shape of space...
If SR(Special Relativity)is about moving trains and cleavage, GR(General Relativity) is when the train itself bends under the weight of your ass.
Here everything bends, both space and time.
Einstein looked at Newtonâs gravity (mass...
I decided to tell you a bit about Einsteinâs theory of relativity (yes, there are two versions: special and general (youâll get why later).
Today Iâm gonna talk about inertial frames of reference.
When Einstein said that time isnâ...
In 1961, Frank Drake proposed an equation to estimate the number of civilizations in our galaxy capable of making contact:
N = R* Ă fp Ă ne Ă fl Ă fi Ă fc Ă L
There are many opinions about most parameters, but here are the valu...
Btw im preparing the post, soon....

Sounds like you are some big D boss influencing a photon.
But what really happens when you "look" at a photon?
To see it the photon has to hit your eye and disappear, being absorbed by the molecules in your retina. Basically you just "ate" i...
For nuclear fusion to happen in the Sun (like when two protons fuse into a deuteron), they need to overcome the Coulomb barrier (named after this smart dude, Coulomb), meaning, the repulsion, because both have a positive charge.
Itâs lik...
Two perfectly smooth metal plates are just standing there - in total emptiness.
No particles. No photons. No pressure.
Now get ready to freak out:
They start attracting each other.
On their own. Because between them⊠thereâs no...
Omg.... finally....I was sure something wrong with Patreon platform, but they just don't allow to post with .IHEC format
One more reason use Androidđ

Youâre just floating through space.
Ahead: a black hole.
Not a "hole" like a tear in fabric.
This is a region of space where gravity is so strong, not even light can escape.
Yeah, yeah, weâve talked about that many times....
Btw you can see how I made my content

When you hear âblack hole,â your brain probably draws something like a bathtub vortex sucking everything in. Spoiler: thatâs a myth. No, itâs not going to âsuck inâ you, Earth, or Saturn. Relax your ballsđ
A black hole is a r...

These little ears on my head: Ihad to force myself to post photos with them on Instagram, where everyone can see that I look cute. I immediately associate that with childish behavior, immaturity. I feel ashamed.
I can't accept it. I'm alwa...
I've already talked about the Higgs a million times, you're probably sick of it by now. Higgs this, Higgs that⊠yeah, I fell in love with the guy. Shame he's dead⊠solid dude.
But anyway, one more quick recap: the Higgs gives all parti...

"The Standard Model", people often think it's like the "basic version" of physics or some intro-level shit. But no, babes, itâs the most expensive, complicated, and successful theory ever cooked up. Yeah, they literally built the collider just t...

Youâve probably heard of the Higgs boson: that particle that's supposed to âgive massâ.
But the storyâs got a dark side. Like, really dark.
Picture a Mexican hat- a proper sombrero. Thatâs what the Higgs potential looks like ...
