Most days when you read about perpetual motion, time crystals and something called an ion trap, you're reading Sci-Fi. This is not one of those days.

This academic study/proposal is a really cute way to pop the question. He even charted their "happiness over time" in Figure 1.

A reactionless engine is an engine with no exhaust that somehow produces thrust. It seems like it should violate physics, but China says it's tested one.

It feels like the Large Hadron Collider has just barely started doing science (and it's not even at full strength yet), but already plans are underway for its successor: the International Linear Collider, or ILC. The ILC will likely cost between $10 and $20 billion, and it's now looking like the host country will probably be Japan.

It must be nice having a Large Hadron Collider to mess about with. One day you're just minding your own business, running lead-proton collisions for reference in order to subtract out background noise from the lead-lead collisions that you actually care about, and then poof, you accidentally create a new form of matter called a color-glass condensate. Nice.
