Space Elevators Could Totally Work—if Earth Days Were Much Shorter

Suppose you could speed up Earth’s rotation so that a day was only half as long? What would happen? Well, for starters we’d have to make new clocks that only have hours 1 to 6 for am and pm. If you had tickets to an 8 o’clock concert, you’d be out of luck: 8 o’clock no longer exists. But maybe a more germane question is, why do physicists ask nutty questions like this?

The Personalized Learning Revolution: An EdTech Insider’s Perspective

Back in the 90s, when I was in school, education was like a uniform everyone had to wear—the same textbooks, the same blackboard, and the same hurried lessons for all. If you fell behind, your only lifeline was to awkwardly raise your hand in the middle of class or spend hours in the library after school, rifling through reference books. Fast forward 30 years, and it’s fascinating how far we’ve come. Today, thanks to AI/ML, we have adaptive learning systems—tailored to each student based on thei

Researchers Pit Stone Age Seafaring Skills Against One of Earth’s Fiercest Currents

Archaeologists estimate that humans first arrived on the Ryukyu Islands off the southwestern coast of Japan sometime between 35,000 and 27,500 years ago. How they did so, however, remains a mystery, especially since they would have had to cross one of the planet’s strongest ocean currents. To address this enduring question, scientists decided to attempt the Paleolithic voyage themselves.

Assembly Theory of Time

If the lineages are followed back beyond the origin of life on Earth to the origin of the universe, it would be logical to assume that the memory of the universe was lower in the past, which means that the universe's ability to generate objects of high Assembly is limited by its size in time. Some objects are too large in time to come into existence in intervals that are smaller than their assembly index.
