JELLYFISH NEBULA - a supernova remnant sculpted by powerful shock waves moving through dense interstellar gas. IC 443 is the aftermath of a massive stellar explosion that occurred thousands of years ago, with the expanding shock fronts now colliding with surrounding molecular clouds. These violent…

Celestial Vortex. Explosions and collapses captured in macro, revealing the dance of inks and their reactions. A tiny cosmos in macro • Best experienced with headphones for full immersion.

A quantum mechanical system behind a barrier can have varying amounts of energy, but it can only absorb or emit specific amounts of this energy. The system is quantised. Tunnelling occurs more easily at a higher energy level than at a lower one so, statistically, a system with more energy is held ca…

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2025 #NobelPrize in Physics to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis “for the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quantisation in an electric circuit.”
