To overcome the global imbalance of renewable energy resources and the limitations of conventional fossil fuels, supergrids – continent-scale power grids – have been proposed as a key to the transition to a new energy regime, especially in resource-poor countries such as South Korea.   Petroleum reserves are finite and becoming increasingly unprofitable over time. Nuclear power...

Paul Dirac’s discovery of the connection between quantum mechanics and relativity had a profound impact on modern physics, and his rigorous personality and brilliant work helped him break new ground in the field.   “When you pluck a flower on Earth, you move the stars at the end of the universe.” This is how Paul Dirac, a British-born theoretical physicist, described gravity.

This article explores why ice cream melted faster than expected in front of a fan in the middle of summer, exploring the principles of heat transfer such as conduction, convection, and radiation to explain everyday scientific phenomena.   On a hot summer day, my sister took an ice cream cone from the convenience store in front of our house out of the freezer. It’s a blissful treat that...

This article emphasizes the importance of freedom and diversity of scientific inquiry based on FireAvent’s anarchistic epistemology and provides a logical rebuttal to two criticisms raised by Alan Charmus.
