Moreover, Kepler’s Third Law only works for planets orbiting … Read more

In other words even though one can find equations to accurately quantify or define an environment … Read more

However scientists feel that it can be used to extract, by quantification the underlying essence of a physical environment and thereby eliminate any dependence on real world objects with which it might originally have been connected. Many of … Read more
