Interesting talk coming up
Well, I’m back in Australia! I’ve just been frantic, though, trying to catch up with everything, so I haven’t had a chance to post yet. Tomorrow though! I wanted to suggest however that any Brisbane people might like to come to a talk tomorrow afternoon, about hidden dimensions, string theory and other assorted goodies. Sounds quite interesting! Details are below:

“Warped Passages: Unravelling the Mysteries of the Universe’s Hidden Dimensions”
Do we inhabit a three-dimensional universe floating in a four-dimensional space? What if the extra dimensions required by string theory were not curled up and unobservably small, but unfurled and vast, extending forever? Could an invisible universe only a tiny fraction of an inch apart in another dimension explain phenomena that we see today in our world? Physicist and author Professor Lisa Randall unravels the mysteries of the universe’s hidden dimensions.
Refreshments will be served after the talk.
