Quantum physics confronts the would-be discoverer with one of the most enduring conundrums modern science has to offer, what renowned physicist Richard Feynman described as “the only mystery.” The name it has been given—the double-slit experiment—sounds far simpler that its enigma. This experiment has been made more mysterious now with research revealing a strange connection between…

Human consciousness is often brushed aside by scientists in favor of more “relevant” subjects of inquiry. But is this dismissal warranted? Or is science missing out on a key component of the universe, one that is intrinsically tied to everything else? One “off the beaten path” California college aims to investigate what many scientists shy away…

The relationship between the mind and the brain is a mystery that is central to how we understand our very existence as sentient beings. Some say the mind is strictly a function of the brain — consciousness is the product of firing neurons. But some strive to scientifically understand the existence of a mind independent…

Dr. Robert Lanza, who was selected by Time magazine as one of the world’s 100 most influential people, believes science must recognize the importance of human consciousness. Quantum physics has proven contradictory to classical, Newtonian physics, setting scientists on the search for a “theory of everything” to bridge the chasm threatening to swallow any confidence…

Professor of aerospace science and dean emeritus of the School of Engineering and Applied Science at Princeton University Robert G. Jahn unexpectedly began studying psychic phenomena some 30 years ago. One of his best students asked him to supervise her research on psychokinesis. She planned to use her expertise in computer science and electrical engineering in the…

One San Francisco scientist who’s spent decades contemplating the conundrums of physics has turned his attention to the enigma of human consciousness. Dr. Alan Ross Hugenot holds a doctorate of science in mechanical engineering, and has had a successful career in marine engineering, serving on committees that write the ship-building standards for the United States….
