Are Ghosts real ?

 


If you believe in ghosts, you're not alone. Cultures all around the world believe in spirits that survive death to live in another realm. In fact, ghosts are among the most widely believed of paranormal phenomenon.

 Millions of people are interested in ghosts, and thousands read ghost stories on reddit every day. It's more than mere entertainment

They have became a part of our culture now. It wasn't until recently that ghost hunting became a widespread interest around the world. Much of this is due to the hit Sci-fi cable TV series "Ghost Hunters," which aired 230 episodes and found no good evidence for ghosts.

But the perspective of science towards the ghosts is different

 One difficulty in scientifically evaluating ghosts is that a surprisingly wide variety of phenomena are attributed to ghosts, from a door closing on its own, to missing keys, to a cold area in a hallway, to a vision of a dead relative. 

When sociologists Dennis and Michele Waskul interviewed ghost experiencers for their 2016 book "Ghostly encounters:The Hauntings of everyday life" (Temple University Pressthey found that "many participants were not sure that they had encountered a ghost and remained uncertain that such phenomena were even possible, simply because they did not see something that approximated the conventional image of a 'ghost.' Instead, many of our respondents were simply convinced that they had experienced something uncanny — something inexplicable, extraordinary, mysterious, or eerie."



 Researchers claim that the reason ghosts haven't been proven to exist is that we simply don't have the right technology to find or detect the spirit world. But this, too, can't be correct: Either ghosts exist and appear in our ordinary physical world (and can therefore be detected and recorded in photographs, film, video and audio recordings), or they don't. If ghosts exist and can be scientifically detected or recorded, then we should find hard evidence of that — yet we don't. If ghosts exist but cannot be scientifically detected or recorded, then all the photos, videos, audio and other recordings claimed to be evidence of ghosts cannot be ghosts. With so many basic contradictory theories — and so little science brought to bear on the topic — it's not surprising that despite the efforts of thousands of ghost hunters on television and elsewhere for decades, not a single piece of hard evidence of ghosts has been found.

 There is also a theory that says that if the ghosts were to exist , they would be made up of pure energy and if they were to interact with us they would their energy in order to interact and they would be cutting their own lifespan as ghost. Albert Einstein also believed in ghosts , he said that energy can never be created nor destroyed so after a person dies the energy in his body would not be destroyed but it would be conserved in the form of ghosts.

What is a Dyson sphere? How much energy can we harvest through it?

  A Dyson sphere is a hypothetical megastructure that completely encompasses a star and captures a large percentage of its power output. The concept is a thought experiment that attempts to explain how a spacefaring civilization would meet its energy requirements once those requirements exceed what can be generated from the home planet's resources alone. Because only a tiny fraction of a star's energy emissions reaches the surface of any orbiting planet , building structures encircling a star would enable a civilization to harvest far more energy. The concept was later popularized by Freeman Dyson in his 1960 paper "Search for Artificial Stellar Sources of Infrared Radiation ". Dyson speculated that such structures would be the logical consequence of the escalating energy needs of a technological civilization and would be a necessity for its long-term survival. He proposed that searching for such structures could lead to the detection of advanced, intelligent extrat...

Time Travel Paradoxes (part-1)

  THE IDEA OF TIME TRAVEL IS AS MUCH DANGEROUS AS EXITING IT SOUNDS AND SO ARE THE PARADOXES ASSOCIATED WITH IT . Simply put a paradox is a  logical contradiction associated with the idea of time and time travel. In physics there are two types of paradoxes - Consistency paradoxes and Casual loops. The consistency paradox  occurs when the past is changed in any way, thus creating a contradiction. This gives rise to our first paradox - 1. The Grandfather Paradox Suppose if a  traveler were ever to go back in time and kill their grandfather in his childhood, it would result in one of the time traveler's parents, and ergo the time traveler, not being born. If the time traveler were not born, then it would not be possible for them to kill the grandfather in the first place. Therefore, the grandfather lives to offspring the time traveler's parents, and therefore the time traveler. There is, thus no predicted outcome to this. Well but there might an answer to this paradox. ...

Top 5 Phenomenon that Science Still Couldn't Explain.

1.The Taos Hum In the small city of Taos, New Mexico, some residents and visitors for years have been annoyed and puzzled by a mysterious and faint low-frequency hum in the desert air. Oddly, only about 2 percent of Taos residents report hearing the sound. Some believe it is caused by unusual acoustics; others suspect mass hysteria or some secret, sinister purpose. Whether described as a whir, hum, or buzz and whether psychological, natural, or supernatural no one has yet been able to locate the sound's origin. Thing is, a survey revealed that those who claim to hear the sounds actually hear many different sounds, suggesting the experiences may be subjective, not actually objective sounds (and pretty certainly not one particular sound). 2.UFO's There is no doubt that UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects) exist — many people see things in the skies that they cannot identify, ranging from aircraft to meteors. Whether or not any of those objects and lights are alien spacecraft is ano...
