Assumption 28:

The Small LIGO In Your Head (part 8 of a 10-part closing)

And consciousness -- and especially your place and form on the consciousness spectrum -- is simply the perception of that change. Your personal, internal LIDO turns on as you become aware of the change -- no matter how small -- or at least no matter how small within the limits of your LIDO sensors!

It may well be that the perception of change goes both ways -- your consciousness may be directed to focus on the smallest, simplest detail or the largest, most expansive whole that you can muster up!

CoST --> Fractal --> Entanglement --> Entropy --> Time --> Consciousness

Yes, you can feel someone else in the room -- feel someone looking at you -- feel your internal clocks as the heavens move, and every other gravitational phenomena that your sensors will allow tuning in to. Should you accidentally hit your finger with a hammer, your own local time will stop!

Perhaps, your tuning will allow you to tune in to an even higher awareness -- that of the Yin-Yang of the bipolar Universe(s)! At which point -- no matter how transiently you are blessed -- you become 1 with Nature!

Assumption 21:

2²¹ =2097152 and 2²¹ -1=2097151 and it is NOT a TRUE Mp=z

The Small LIGO In Your Head (a 10-part closing)

While both the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN and the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) (US, Italy, Japan), certainly have their place in the research and study of gravity and the birth of the Universe(s) (bravo!), we are all individually blessed with having our very own collision-interference detectors in our body -- most likely, but not necessarily exclusively -- centered in our brain.

That's right! Each of us -- and every other living entity -- has the capability to detect gravity waves. And here is the real news (supposition): that that detection is the very basis of consciousness!

Yes, the detection of the interference of SpaceTime (ST) waves that transiently give rise to the formation of the graviton (the double-photon mediating "wave-particle" of gravitation) is precisely the same source of that which we call the "consciousness spectrum" -- or simply consciousness.

Come on, are you saying -- amongst a whole host of other things -- that the gravitational phenomenon and consciousness are at the very least intimately related, if not outright one and the same? Does gravity = consciousness? Is there gravitational consciousness? Or, how about conscious gravitation? Are we heavy thinkers?

Laugh as you may, evidence is pointing to just that. And the basis of that evidence -- the real fundamental base -- is, as you guessed -- mathematics. All interference is ultimately based on numbers -- quantities. Identical quantities sum up, opposite quantities sum to zero.

more on neutrinos coz i've been studying physics nonstop for the last 6 hours

there's this thing called "multimessenger astronomy," where basically, instead of looking at things in the visible light spectrum all the time, we have multiple ways of observing an event in space. you guys have probably all seen the first-ever image of the event horizon of a black hole (M87) in 2019:

but, direct imaging is HARD. real hard. especially for objects like black holes, where light is bent so much that it cannot escape the spacetime curvature. however, M87's black hole is spinning! meaning, gravitational waves (like, ripples in really tightly stretched fabric), are traveling through spacetime and eventually reaching us.

you cannot see gravitational waves in visible light, but if you have a laser interferometer, like, say.... LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory) from Caltech and MIT, then you can detect these gravitational waves and confirm the existence of this black hole. (in fact, this is how we confirmed that black hole mergers really were a thing!)

now, that was kind of a side tangent, so back to what I wanted to talk about: if Betelgeuse, the closest red supergiant to Earth, were to go supernova tomorrow, we would be able to see it in visible light eventually. we would be able to detect the gravitational waves from the event a few hours before the light reaches us, and so folks at LIGO could inform telescope operators all around the world that there would be a supernova for us to see soon.

however, even faster than this is if we detect neutrinos from a supernova. this is the cool part!! neutrinos are small and weakly interacting, so they are very efficient in taking excess energy out of a supernova and zooming away with it. since supernovae are HIGHLY energetic events, you will have SO MANY (like, on the order of 10^58) neutrinos escaping the explosion.

there are a few neutrino detectors that are active right now, and many in the making. one of the most prominent ones is IceCube. IceCube definitely warrants its own post, so I won't go into it just now, but it is what it sounds like.

literally :)

these energetic neutrinos would reach us around the same time the gravitational waves would, but it wouldn't be an event that is easily confused with another thing. few events in space create so many neutrinos, and spikes in the amount of neutrinos detected, along with confirmation from LIGO, would inform you, with nearly dead certainty, that you would be about to see a supernova with a telescope.

which is sooo freaking cool! we don't understand a lot about neutrinos yet (especially not me), because they are so small and weakly interacting. however, the fact that they can inform us greatly about events happening in the universe makes them very valuable mailmen for cosmic events.

anyway, on that note gbye time for more studying (i'll be back to talk about IceCube)
