Hello World:
I have calculated the minimum energy necessary to destroy Alderaan!
Isn't it beautiful? Yes, yes, it's on a napkin. I can't help it. I'm a nerd. The specifics to come later.

There's physics all around us. All we have to do is look for it. In this blog, you'll discover examples of physics in everyday life. What's even scarier...you might like it.

Random Physics Thought
Did you ever wish time could slow down? Whether you're spending time with a loved one or you have a term paper due, we all know the feeling. According to theories about the speed of light, time slows down and even becomes infinite while you're traveling at the speed of light! The downfall...mass also becomes infinite. Basically, you'd die. *sigh*
On a side note, large gravitational fields show a curve in spacetime. According to relativity, time would in fact appear to move slower according to an observer.
