Throw out your physics books...

Coming up with new and interesting concepts about how the universe works is fine and well but theyare just THEORIES!

Lets not forget that!

Science is Theory and will never be proven because we are not as smart as the universe and never will be!
 
Scientists were convinced for years that the Earth was flat

Indeed you could be killed for suggesting otherwise.

It wasnt until the 15th century that "scientists" began to acknowledge that they had been wrong all along and that the earth was indeed round.

No scientific principle "rule" is safe.

I think you'll find that the early arabs new it was round as they new on one side of the earth it was day and on the other night.
 
In fact a man in ancient greece worked out (to a pretty accurate measure if I recall) the circumference of the earth using only simple tools.

So better luck bashing scientists next time MrLOL.
 
Bit odd it's only in Physical Review Letters though. If it was that big a discovery I'd expect it in Science or Nature.:p

Almost certainly their paper was rejected from Science and now they are trying to get it published going down the hierarchy.
 
It's kind of to be expected for such a paper to be rejected in the first instance. It does after all suggest new physics, and everybody knows you can't have new physics omg omg!
 
It was in the american scientist or something, and as the article continues they go on to prove that it doesn't change, but because the universe is expanding it seems to change the laws. That site didn't have the whole article.
