Soaps' Big Bang Theory
In an attempt to inflate ratings quickly, soaps are trying anything and everything. But even if ratings surge, how long will it be before they collapse?

Steady State Cosmology
The steady state theory was a mid 20th century alternative to the big bang theory. It suggested that there was no moment of creation. The universe has always existed.

The Library of Babel (Discussion Article)
Life is a search for some kind of meaning we can attach to our existence; and many great minds have tried to identify our place in the cosmos. In “The Library of Babel,” Argentinean writer Jorge Luis Borges likens the Universe to a vast repository of books—the sum knowledge of time eternal. Can you identify with his message?

Ask anybody what is a supernova, and chances are a vast majority will respond it goes bang and has to do with astronomy. Supernovas are epitomes of out of this world catastrophe, of unimaginable violence. Yet we all have been - in a distant past - within not one but probably several ones. Close and intimate.
