Answers to THE BIGGEST QUESTIONS Ever Asked
This book covers a broad range of extraordinary scientific discoveries that have major unexpected implications. It will excite enquiring minds by overturning many of our beliefs. It has an easy-to-read style without mathematics or complicated scientific terms. It answers such questions as: - How did the universe come into being and evolve to become ever more complex? What is its surprising, large-scale structure? Why does it have two opposing properties? How will it evolve? Does it go on forever? Will it eventually die like everything in it? Is it designed around innumerable formulas? Could it be a computer simulation? What might its ultimate goal be? How could it have 30 incredibly finely-tuned conditions that are infinitely beyond chance for it to exist? Could there be other universes? What allows us to see to the beginning of time? Do we exist at a special time in its evolution? Could a god have created the universe? How did religion evolve? Is there an afterlife? Do supernatural events occur? Will we build Star Trek-like spaceships to explore our galaxy? Will humans explore Mars? Are space warps and teleporters possible? Will we be able to communicate with other alien intelligences? Is time travel possible? Why does space contract to zero, mass become infinite, and time stop ticking at the speed of light? What unsuspected contradiction occurs at the surface of a black hole? What are the peculiar properties of space and time? What is the photon paradox? Is the universe the same in every direction? Can planets exist outside solar systems? What strange planets and stars are being discovered? How many planets might there be that have life and intelligence? Could other intelligences have evolved billions of years before Earth formed? Could UFOs be alien spacecraft? What defines life? What are the basic conditions for life to exist? How did life evolve on Earth? How complex is simple life? Will life be discovered on the other planets? How will the human species evolve in the near future? Is it likely that alien life will be carbon-based and use DNA to program its evolution? How different might extra-terrestrial life be to life on Earth? Why do we not see evidence of advanced aliens? What caused human intelligence to evolve so relatively quickly? Is the future predetermined? Are our decisions made before our conscious mind is aware of them? To what degree do our genes determine our looks, our health, and our thoughts? What is consciousness? Why does increasing consciousness increasingly slow the passing of time? Why do mammals have two brains that think independently? How many senses do we really have? Has intelligence been discovered in the simplest life forms? What is exponential growth? How dramatically and quickly will it change our world? What is the technological singularity? What will highly advanced AI and robotics lead to? Will there be jobs for humans in the near future? Why will the cost of production soon approach zero? What impact will quantum computers have? How soon will AI be superior to the entire human race? Will AI control the world? Will we evolve into highly diversified superhumans (transhumans) with far greater intelligence, extraordinary knowledge, and super-physical capabilities? Could ai make us extinct? Could everything soon be 3D printed, including life? What will cities of the future be like? Could virtual worlds or universes be created?
