Timeline for the Universe
  • My name is Andy

    My name is Andy. I am a network engineer making it in the multiverse, and possibly exist in an infinite number of Level I, II, and III parallel universes.

    I live in the Preston Hollow district of Dallas, Texas.

    I ramble about cosmology, quantum mechanics, astro-biology, medical curiosities and the paranormal. My heroes are Albert Einstein, Michio Kaku, and Professor Brian Cox.

    I’m a social media enthusiast and enjoy exchanging fascinating ideas. I’m a self proclaimed genius hipster and love all things geek.

    I’m a film buff and would be happy to discuss horror day and night. I enjoy sci-fi and I’m an admitted Star Trek, Fringe, and Stargate nerd.

    I’m an avid reader and will often be found at a coffee shop, restaurant or dog park with a book in one hand and a tech toy in the other.

The Preponderance of Life, Death and Me

2012 was life changing for me to say the least. There was no Mayan Apocalypse. There was no Mega CME that destroyed modern civilization. There was no zombie outbreak. My beloved father died in August and his mother followed him one month later.  I did not expect this to have been so swift and so … Read more

What is Blind Sight?

I enjoy watching science documentaries especially on Science Channel.  Anyone who has purused the 400 HD hours on my DVR notices that most of the items filling my DVR are science related.  I especially love watching ‘Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman.’ I love that cutting edge science is now part of mainstream pop culture. … Read more

Shining Light on the Double-Slit Experiment and Quantum Reality

Over the past few years, I’ve been increasingly consumed with the idea in quantum mechanics and also Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle.  I am fascinated with the idea that our subatomic particles can and indeed do exists in more than one place as once. Therefore, we exist in more than one place at once as well. This … Read more

Standing at the Shores of a New Life

It has been a turbulent year to say the least for me. So many changes have happened that I could not have expected a year ago.  I have grown as a man and have faced some of my fears with trepidation but seek to conquer the darkness that may lies ahead. The relationship has been … Read more

The Holographic Principle and Is it Reality?

I was watching a fascinating documentary on Science Channel called “What Is Reality?”  The show progressed and discussed Fermi Lab and the Tevatron.  Atoms smashed together and in time we learned about The Standard Model of elementary particles as called “the particle zoo.” However, what shocked me and took me aback was the topic of … Read more

The Death Of Dark Flow? (via D.669: Neopallium 2.0)

Fascinating indeed. Along with dark matter and dark energy, "dark flow" has gotten some considerable press of recent years. In late Autumn of 2008, a research team led by NASA astronomer Alexander Kashlinsky observed that clusters of galaxies huge distances apart seemed to be attracted to the same empty region of the Universe: effectively flowing towards … Read more

Life Is Starting Anew. Hold Your Head Up High

I have been beside myself and astounded since Friday. I did not know what to think or what to say. I waited to make this announcement until I was ready and felt confident enough. I was laid off on Friday. I was given permission to come in late Friday to get my driver’s license renewed … Read more

The 'dark flow' of wayward galaxy clusters.

Dark Flow – Attraction of a Mysterious Presence.

Much attention has been recently given to dark flow. We know that the universe is expanding in an ever accelerating rate. We know the expansion is in all directions. However, there exist galaxy super custers which are moving in a direction independent of the surrounding clusters. What force could exist that could attract such large … Read more

I started the evening early and had dinner with my friend Spencer at Hillstone (formerly Houston’s) in Dallas. After dinner, drinks and great conversation, we proceeded to meet everyone … Read more
