Interested about the picture? Autonomous experimental design allows us to answer the question of where to take the measurements. More about it is here...

First Ever Impressive Scientific Dream

It is 544AM now, I was just Dreaming something strange.

I was reading a Physics News in Paper(that was not online!). The news was highlighted with light blue/green background and was presented in a table in the bottom-right part of the right sheet.

It read something like:
"A team of scientist studying Aurora has come across a strange effect....
One of the team member has gained a super natural effect ...
(I have now forgotten another line in here... may be you can read it sometimes in future: ha ha)
He can now see a kilometer depth inside the sea and is being employed for fishing industry"(heh, fishing industry???)

This is completely ridiculous. I mean, I don't know what triggered this dream. May be the trailor of Steven Spielberg's upcoming movie/series (?) which I was watching on TV or the advertisement of supernatural series or the Thriller that I was watching while having dinner...

This is my dream

Give me enough time, I will impress you!

While I am feeling that I have little bit of spare time, I do watch the TED presentations. They are great!!!

One of the video I recently watched has impressed me. It is about the creation of universe and the on-going experiment to reveal the secrets of Nature.
The take home point was: If Hydrogen is given 14 billion years, it can create such a magnificent Universe.
I turned into myself and asked, wow!

Give me some time, I am sure that I will impress you!!!
Enjoy the presentation.

This is fun .
Besides being funny, it is peculiarly educative.


Try to follow the details. It is amazing.
I liked it!

Mind your concentration

This is amazing trick!



Does mind trick us?
Or do we trick ourselves?

In this video, viewers are asked to see how many times the ball was passed by the guys with white shirt.
If one goes for accuracy and forgets everythings else...

Watch the video.
