“The task is not to see what has never been seen before, but to think what has never been thought before about what you see every day.“ -- Erwin Schrödinger (1887 - 1961)

Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality. - Dr. Carl Sagan

Producidos naturalmente por una amplia gama de especies, incluidos los humanos, fueron descubiertos por primera vez a finales de la década de 1950. En concreto en 1957 suponiendo un pilar básico en el conocimiento de las citocinas. INTERFERÓN

Portrait of the French physician and surgeon Guy de Chaulhac, who wrote a lengthy and influential treatise on surgery in Latin, titled Chirurgia Magna. It was translated into many other languages and widely read by physicians in late medieval Europe. #histmed #histsurg

Voyager 1 is the most distant human-made object in existence, currently more than 15 billion miles (24 billion kilometers) away from Earth. It is also the longest continuously operating spacecraft in history, marking an incredible milestone in space exploration. The spacecraft,

#OnThisDay in 1831, the HMS Beagle departs on its second voyage with an unknown young naturalist aboard. The ship will eventually visit the Galapagos Islands where the scientist, Charles Darwin, will begin to formulate his theories on evolution. #HistoryOfScience

When I consider the small span of my life absorbed in the eternity of all time, or the small part of space which I can touch or see engulfed by the infinite immensity of spaces that I know not, I'm astonished to see myself here instead of there... now instead of then. (B. Pascal)

"It is through logic that we prove, but through intuition that we discover" - Poincaré

The existence of antimatter was first predicted in 1928. Physicist Paul Dirac developed an equation that combined quantum mechanics and Einstein's special relativity. This simple equation showed something surprising: particles that looked just like electrons but with positive

A famous but rare picture of Bhor, Fermi and Pauli in 1948 discussing the future construction of the LHC in about 50 years.

In 1905, Einstein published a paper explaining the photoelectric effect using quantized light—essentially laying the groundwork for quantum theory. But he didn’t follow that path further. Instead, it was Max Planck and later Niels Bohr who developed it. Einstein was famously
