TH_02 — The Metabolic Consciousness Threshold

Here's a question that sounds purely philosophical but might actually have a number for an answer: how much energy does it take to be conscious? This theory says there's a floor — a minimum amount of power a system must

Q_1_08 — Observable Universe and Cosmic Web

The observable universe has a diameter of ~93 billion light-years (comoving distance) and contains an estimated 2 trillion galaxies (Conselice et al. 2016), ~10²⁴ stars, and ~10⁸⁰ atoms. But its most striking feature is

Q_1_14 — Vacuum Energy and the Cosmological Constant Problem

The cosmological constant problem is widely regarded as the most severe fine-tuning problem in all of physics. Quantum field theory predicts that the vacuum of spacetime is not empty but seethes with zero-point fluctuati

Q_1_05 — Holographic Principle

The holographic principle proposes that all information contained within a volume of space can be encoded on the boundary surface of that region. First suggested by Gerard 't Hooft (1993) and developed by Leonard Susskin

Q_1_12 — Conformal Cyclic Cosmology: Penrose's Vision of Eternal Recurrence

Conformal Cyclic Cosmology (CCC), proposed by Roger Penrose in 2005, envisions the universe as an infinite sequence of "aeons" — each beginning with a Big Bang-like event and ending in an infinitely expanded, cold state

Q_1_09 — Fate of the Universe

How will the universe end? This question has moved from philosophy and eschatology into hard physics, driven by the 1998 discovery that the universe's expansion is ACCELERATING (Riess et al. 1998; Perlmutter et al. 1999
