Red Dwarf Habitable Zone Earth Size Planets are Like Venus

The Earth sits squarely in the sun’s habitable zone. A star’s “habitable zones” is the distance range around a star where planets can have liquid water on their surface. Astronomers have been excited to find that about 40% of red dwarfs have approximately Earth size planets orbiting them many of which are in the stars habitable zone. This fact has lead to the suggestion that these planet could have life on them. A new study shows that tidal forces may dry out Earth size planets orbiting within a red dwarf “habitable zones” making them more like Venus than Earth and therefore hostile to life.

Electromagnetism





Electromagnetism is the study of affects of electric charges both at rest and in motion.  It is one of the four fundamental forces of nature and it is the main binding force of the atom outside the nucleus. Electromagnetic theory is important to understanding nature. Charge is the property of subatomic particle that gives rise to electric fields.

The charge of a particle can be negative, positive, or neutral. Charge is a fundamental property of matter. Magnetism is the force of attraction or repulsion resulting from the motion of electric charges. While the force lines associated with electric charges tend to be strait, magnetic force lines tend to be circular. Electrodynamics is the branch of physics dealing with the electromagnetic forces between electric charges.

In its most basic form electrodynamics deals with the affect of charges in relative motion. It is this mutual production of electric and magnetic fields that  forms the  bases of the unification of eclectic and magnetic fields. Every thing else in electromagnetism extends from this starting principles.

Venus's rotational slowing incompatible with 4.5 billion years.

It has recently been discovered that the rotation planet Venus is slowing down. In the sixteen years between Magellan and Venus Express the period of Venus’ rotation increased 6.5 minutes.  This shows that the planets rotation has slowed significantly over the last 16 years. While not the only possible explanation the most likely one would be tidal forces with the sun. If this is the case then 4.5 billion years ago Venus would be spinning impossibly fast. The result is that Venus can not be 4.5 billion years old.  This actually works other models such as atmospheric drag as well.

Faster than light neutrino: Not so fast

Faster than light neutrino Mystery Might be Solved

 

The reason why CERN and OPERA recoded faster than light neutrinos may have been found. It turns out a cable between a GPS receiver and the computer that recorded the rime was malfunctioning causing 60 nanosecond delay in the signal, making the neutrinos seem to arrive 60 nanoseconds sooner than they did.

Richard Dawkins admits that God Might Exist

http://tinyurl.com/7pcxwvn

 

The high priest of Atheism Richard Dawkins has admitted that might exist after all. It is mainly a case that Dawkins is not 100% certain that He does not exist but coming from Dawkins it almost qualifies as a testimony of faith.

 

Dawkins thinks it highly unlikely that God exists but not that it’s defined that He does not. I wonder how he calculated those odds.

Genesis 6:9-10

Genesis 6:9-10
This is an article on the term “perfect in his generations” mentioned in Genesis 6:9-10.

Video on Motion

Relativity theory dhows that all motion is relative since it can only be measured relative to a given observer. These measurements are also reversible such that if I see someone moving a given direction at a given speed, he sees me going the opposite direction at the same speed.
