A physicist built a ‘mini-universe’ out of ultracold atoms and watched time being born inside it.
For the first time, a physicist has experimentally watched time emerge from within an isolated quantum system —…

We tend to think of the universe as roughly uniform, with galaxies scattered in every direction — but the Boötes Void, discovered in 1981 during a redshift survey, is a vast cosmic underdensity up to 330 million light-years across, containing only a few dozen known galaxies where thousands might otherwise be expected
On the scale of the whole observable universe, matter is assumed to be spread out fairly evenly: enough…
