Dr. Weiping Yu returns to the show for another refreshing segment of Science and U. According to a recent article, the Earth is pulsating every 26 seconds but scientists still cannot explain it. Is there an explanation for this? How can we rethink things like physics and technology without politicization and coercion? The future of […]
Dr. Weiping Yu returns for another exciting segment of Science and U. The physicist comments on the news that NASA’s OSIRIS-REX spacecraft has touched the surface of an asteroid on Tuesday to gather a sample of rocks and dirt. What can we expect from the rubble that OSIRIS-REX is bringing home? What’s the difference, from […]
Dr. Weiping Yu is back with another segment of Science and U. On the claim that there is a fifty percent chance we’re living in a simulation, Dr. Yu remarks says, “there is a fundamental problem in quantum physics” and this is why such claims arise. What can better explain our universe if not quantum […]
Dr. Weiping Yu returns with Science and U to comment on new studies implying black holes from the Big Bang could be the Dark Matter. The physicist also comments on astronomers discovering “northern lights” surrounding Rosetta’s famous comet for the first time. Dr. Yu brings attention to the fact that electromagnetic emissions have been detected […]
Is the universe too thin as cosmologists claim? What is the mystery behind the quirky response to magnetism in quantum physics? Where do the enormous magnetic fields that permeate our universe come from? Join Dr. Weiping Yu as he answers these questions while commenting on some of the latest science news from around the world. […]
Dr. Weiping Yu is back with another Science and U segment and this time he talks about the discovery of new taste cells in mice. How significant is this? Could vibrating particles have anything to do with guiding our brain towards certain things? The physicist also comments on a new low-cost energy source for nighttime […]
Our Chief Science Advisor, Dr. Weiping Yu, joins the show to comment on the outcome of a research involving silk scaffolds and magnetism that resulted in a new composite material useful for regenerating bone tissue. The physicist says that he predicted a long time ago which the research has now proved, that “magnetic stimulus exerts […]
On today’s segment of Science and U, Dr. Weiping Yu returns to comment on the breakthrough new study by scientists and engineers at the University of Minnesota that have electrically transformed non-magnetic “fool’s gold” into magnetic material. The physicist also comments on the recent experiment which captured an X-shaped magnetic field in the NGC 4217 […]
“Change doesn’t happen by appealing to the crowd. Since when has truth won by appealing to the crowd?” Join David Gornoski as he dives deep into the magnetic nature of crowds and unravels the bind of groupthink that controls almost every part of our society. How do we break from this attraction of persecuting crowds? […]
Dr. Weiping Yu returns with Science and U and comments on the mystery surrounding dark energy and the universe’s rate of expansion. Is Einstein’s “cosmological constant” reliable? the physicist asks. Is the universe an isolated system? Is the second law of thermodynamics accurate in its conclusion? Mises Institute’s Tho Bishop calls in to comment on the […]
