The German physicist Max Planck introduced the notion of packets of energy that he called "quanta" in order to explain why the wavelength (color) of the radiation given off by heated objects did not rise in a continuous manner but in discontinuous spurts from value to value as they grew hotter.

Dark energy is the mysterious force that many physicists think is causing the expansion of the universe to accelerate. In 2004, a couple of scientists claimed that the quantum fluctuations of empty space could be the source of dark energy and suggested a test for this idea.

Researchers directing a special type of light at metal poked with holes in irregular patterns recently discovered that all the light behaved like a liquid and fell across the metal to find its way through the escape holes.

There really are two kinds of mass. First, there is inertial mass, which describes how much an object resists being pushed around. Second, there is gravitational mass, which describes how strongly an object couples to the gravitational field. Yet, to the best precision we've been able to measure, these two kinds of mass are exactly the same.

Ever wish you could reach back in time and change the past? Maybe you'd like to take back an unfortunate voice mail message, or rephrase what you just said to your boss. Or perhaps you've even dreamed of tweaking the outcome of yesterday's lottery to make yourself the winner.
