Multiplication by Infinity

(Indeterminate, like me. Think outside the box, but when you step outside the box ... try to keep one foot in)

On Vacation

Will return Friday or so. Gone fishing. In the meatime, stuff that has interested me lately:


- A Trojan Asteroid for Earth



- Giant black hole gobbling gas on camera



-Chandra captures enticing evidence of black holes Bondi radius



- What will the sun look like when it dies?



- All the Starship Enterprises Captains + Deep Space Nine and Voyager in one documentary



- Astronauts may not get pick slips. No of course they will, but they may have options.



- DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince (Will Smith) perform Summertime on Soul Train (1991).

About Me

My photo
Steven Colyer
My weblog is named "Multiplication by Infinity", because "Division by Zero" was taken ... and "Division by Infinity" makes me feel very small ... Steven Colyer's Musings in Mathematical Physics and its Effects on Humanity and other Lifeforms.... And Pure Mathematics, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Experimental Physics, Engineering, Astronomy (not Cosmology so much), Space Exploration and Lunar Colonization. I am a Rutgers 1979 Mechanical Engineer (Pi Tau Sigma) and Rutgers 1989 MBA. ("I study Politics and War that my children may study Mathematics and Philosophy." - 2nd U.S. President John Adams) I've already studied enough Politics and War and Economics for one lifetime, and so it's time for Math and Science
