Which Is Why I Appreciate KenFM

Lately I've been enjoying watching interviews on KenFM. The moderator Ken Jebsen speaks there with different people about current topics. Jebsen is a good entertainer that I enjoy listening to. It's exciting and entertaining at the same time. By the way, the Internet portal KenFM is the continuation of the radio program of the same name, which according to Wikipedia was broadcast from 2001 to 2011.

What impresses me about Jebsen is the way he works. He is always well prepared and with great passion for the matter. I consider his amounts to be significant and of great value and quality. The variety of topics is also a plus for me. In addition, Jebson has the courage to offer a platform for uncomfortable topics. I admire the way he puts his finger on the sore spots in our society and doesn't look away when things get uncomfortable.

I particularly like the two formats "Die Macher" and "nachdenKEN" because they provide positive and concrete examples of what you as an individual can contribute to making this world a slightly better place. I think KenFM simply offers good journalism!

Good Stories

I will soon be 40 years old. Anyone who knows me knows that I like stories. I think life has many good stories to offer. In the newspapers and the news, however, we mostly hear "bad" news. As an optimist, I am convinced that a positive mood is sensible and healthy and that it should also be one of the tasks of our media to maintain a certain balance in this regard. That's why I'm a fan of Impact Journalism Day  or I love formats like "Die Macher" on KenFM . In between, I like to watch one of the many good posts on TED . I also think that 12app attaches great importance to weaving encouraging reports into the program again and again. For my birthday I would therefore like to get lots of good stories and kitschy positive happy events. Did you read something the other day that put a smile on your face? What cheers you up? Please send me a link to your favorite story. Videos are also welcome. Or send me a funny anecdote from your colorful life as a text. Ther...

Singularity

The general theory of relativity predicts that a so-called "singularity" is hidden in a black hole (i.e. behind an event horizon). A thought experiment from school physics: A space capsule is on the moon. The astronauts want to teach back to earth. To do this, they have to overcome the moon's gravitational field. If they only had a catapult instead of a rocket drive, this would have to throw the space capsule into space at a certain speed so that it does not fall back onto the moon. Escape speed This speed can be calculated solely from the mass of the object to be left and its radius (position of the space capsule on the surface). For the moon it is: 2.3 km/s. If the astronauts not only want to leave the moon, but also our solar system via catapult, the escape speed is 42.1 km/s, and for our galaxy: 320 km/s. In order to leave our universe, however, our atronauts would have to be faster than light. However, since physics does not allow mass to ever move faster t...

Everything in perspective?

One approach to unifying the four physical forces is Quantum Gravity (QG) [1], which attempts to combine General Relativity (GRT) and Quantum Field Theory (QFT). So far, this has not been possible because space-time would diverge in the center of a black hole. The problem could perhaps be solved geometrically. If "the singularity" were modeled e.g. as a torus ring [2], then there would not be an infinite density. Another approach might be not to first look behind the curtain of an event horizon, i.e. the standardization would then have to be fully valid "only" up to the event horizon. Due to the theory of relativity, the state of how the universe appears to us optically depends on perspective. Very close to an event horizon, to outsiders, time practically stands still for infalling objects, and so they never fall into it. Perhaps the starry sky seems so static to us mainly because time seems to pass so slowly "everywhere". It looks like the entire firmamen...
