And then it was done.
Dr Marvin Ledbetter took a step back from the machine and smiled broadly in satisfaction. A screwdriver held loosely in one hand, he ran the other through his wavy white hair and let himself relax. Finally, all of the diagnostics had been clear, and all that remained was to attach the brass plate to the side of the instrumental panel.
She was ready to go.
He placed the screwdriver on a nearby workbench and clambered into the machine, lowering himselt into the old leather armchair that formed the center of the contraption. His fingers koved over the polished brass, tracing the letters of 'Mary' with his fingers and he looked up to the picture that sat above it. Green eyes smiled at him from a captured moment of the past and he smiled back. Still smiling, he leapt from his seat with an energy that belied his frail appearence and started grabbing items from the workbenches that surround him.
"Right: laptop, check. Bottled water. Check."
Moving frantically around his lab, he mumbled his way through a mental list, collecting various things. He looked over at the machinery he had named Mary, the car sized metal framework barely visable under the miles of wiring, sensors and equidistantly spaced energy field cones and cast a final careful eye over the machine. And then, once he was ready, he sat back in the chair, connected up his laptop and sat for a few seconds with his eyes closed, savouring the moment. With a quich indrawn breath, he abruptly leapt from the machine again and grabbed a small plastic dinosaur skeleton.
"Malcom! Check. Couldn't forget you now could we?"
Grinning madly, he sat himself back into the chair and propped Malcon up by his laptop. He tapped a couple of keys, punched a large green button and sat gripping the arms of the chair as the machine powered up, his knuckles white and eyes wide. With a barely audible whine, the energy fields established themselves, a spider's web of white light creeping like frost from the cones, and the lab around him dimmed slightly. With whatsounded like a soft 'click', he detached from the known universe and sat suspended in his energy bubble, the soft hum of his machinery whirring steadily in the background.
Permitting himself a little jig of jot in his seet, he whoope in triumph and then ran through a series of tests, tapping rapidly at the keyboard until he had confirmed that he'd truly done it. The ledbetter fiel generator (as he'd decided to call it in the few seconds previously) was working. He could move independantly through time and space, the energy field utterly cutting him from the universe as he knew it. Nothing could enter the field and nothing could leave. Picking up a small rubber ball, he thre it and watched with delight as it hit the floor, bounces solidly off the energy field and back into his hand.
"Well Mary,W he whispered. "What do i do now?" His gaze flicked over at the small skeleton of the dinosaur, and his fingers moved rapidly over the keys once more. With another faint 'click' the universe moved around him.
A few nanoseconds later, nbot that the time really made a difference, Marvin sat suspended in the air above a vast her of sauropods, watching intently as they moved across an endless savannah that, many millions of years later, would become the city knows as London. He watched open-mouthed as the herd moved gracefully in sync with each other, almost like a flock of birds, seeiming to know instinctively where each of their colleagues were and what they were about to do. A stealthy movement caught his eye as a small group of predatory carnivores seperated off a weaker herbavore, the swiftly moving meat-eaters expertly herding it away from the larger males before taking it down and feasting on its still warm carcass. Dinosaurs has always been Mary's area of expertise, but it was an interest he'd happily shared, his boyhood fascination with them reignited by his wife when they married. Malcom had been one of the

radiation. This consists of very, very low energy photons whose spectrum is peaked in the microwave region and which are remnants from the time when the universe was only about 200,000 years old. On top of these there are higher energy particles that are being created constantly by all luminous objects in the universe. Our sun, other stars, gamma-ray bursts and so on are creating photons of all different energies/wavelengths. These objects also produce high-energy massive particles such as electrons, protons…

String Theory; what is it? Most teens have no idea what String Theory is and do not care to learn about it. Little do they know but the ideas behind String Theory affect their everyday lives. Soon many more fields of jobs will be using the ideas behind the theory and people will have to at least know the works behind it in order to even survive in those jobs. Still what is String Theory? String Theory is one of the theories attempting to connect quantum mechanics and Einstein’s Theory of Relativity…

Higgs Particle Essay

last year. The Higgs Boson is the particle that would explain what scientist have been scratching their head over for years, how all matter in the universe gets its mass. In the 1960s, Peter Higgs and other physicists proposed a theory on how particles acquire mass. The theory suggests that everything in the universe is in what’s called a Higgs energy field, in which particles move around and attract Higgs Bosons, giving them their mass. Particles that would attract more Higgs Bosons would have more…

Essay on Anti-Matter

about anti-matter. Some thought it had a negative mass, and would thus feel gravity as a push rather than a pull. If this were so, the antiproton's negative mass/energy would cancel the proton's when they met and nothing would remain; in reality, two extremely high-energy gamma photons are produced. Today's theories of the universe say that there is no such thing as a negative mass. The second and more subtle mistake is the idea that anti-water would only annihilate with ordinary water, and…

Formation of the Universe ABE 170A2 30 March 2014 The formation of the universe is a controversial subject. There are many theories that remain the subject of debate. The universe is defined as the totality of existence. There is evidence that the universe began as long as 15 billion years ago in an event dubbed “The Big Bang”. Scientists have agreed when the universe began, however they disagree on how it actually started. This paper will discuss the controversy…

A Universe with the critical density is said to be flat. In his theory of general relativity, Einstein demonstrated that the gravitational effect of matter is to curve the surrounding space. In a Universe full of matter, both its overall geometry and its fate are controlled by the density…

Essay on Big Bang

Theory The Big Bang was an explosion of energy. Energy and matter can be converted into the other form and are interchangeable under certain conditions. The Big Bang was an explosion of energy. Soon after the explosion conditions were such that the energy was able to transform into matter. Some energy remained and can be detected in the universe today. The evidence of the Big Bang Theory are, we are reasonably certain that the universe had a beginning, Galaxies appear to be moving…

All the forces in the universe and particles interactions are the result of four fundamental forces: 5.1. Gravitational Force: Gravitational force is the most pervasive force in the universe, it acts on everything that has a mass over extremely large distances. For example, a skier uses it to race downhill, the solar system is held together due to it and the…
