Contributions to science and speculative science
In addition to establishing Benford's law of controversy, Benford claims to have created and written about the first computer virus in the late 1960s. A computer virus is a Computer program that can copy itself and infect a computer without permission or knowledge of the user
In 2004, Benford proposed that the harmful effects of global warming could be reduced by the construction of a rotating Fresnel lens 1000 kilometres across, floating in space at the Lagrangian point L1. Global warming is the increase in the average measured temperature of the A Fresnel lens (pronounced or) is a type of lens invented by French physicist Augustin-Jean Fresnel. According to Benford, this lens would diffuse the light from the Sun and reduce the solar energy reaching the Earth by approximately 0. The Sun (Sol is the Star at the center of the Solar System. 5% to 1%. He estimated that this would cost around $10 billion. The United States dollar ( sign: $; code: USD) is the unit of Currency of the United States; it has also been His plan has been commented on in a variety of forums. [1] This plan, or a similar one, was proposed in 1989 by J. T. Early, [2] and again in 1997 by Edward Teller, Lowell Wood, and Roderick Hyde. Edward Teller (original Hungarian name Teller Ede) (January 15 1908 &ndash September 9 2003 was a Hungarian -American theoretical Physicist [3] In 2006, Benford pointed out one possible danger in this approach: if this lens were built and global warming were avoided, there would be less incentive to reduce greenhouse gases, and humans might continue to produce too much carbon dioxide until it caused some other environmental catastrophe, such as a chemical change in ocean water that could be disastrous to ocean life. Marine biology is the scientific study of living Organisms in the Ocean or other marine or Brackish bodies of water [4]
Benford serves on the board of directors and the steering committee of the Mars Society. The Mars Society is an international Space advocacy Non-profit organization dedicated to encouraging the exploration and settlement of Mars.
Benford's law of controversy
Benford's law of controversy[5][5][6] is an adage from the 1980 novel Timescape,[7] stating:
- Passion is inversely proportional to the amount of real information available. An adage (ˈædɪdʒ or adagium (Latin is a short but memorable saying that holds some important fact of experience that is considered true by many people or that Timescape is a 1980 Novel by Science fiction writer Gregory Benford (with unbilled co-author Hilary Foister An emotion is a mental and physiological state associated with a wide variety of feelings thoughts and behaviours This article is about proportionality the mathematical relation [5][6]
Long a favorite in Usenet and web-board signature files, the adage has come to enough prominence to also be quoted in contexts as diverse as an international drug policy article in a peer-reviewed social science journal,[8] and a long-running objectivist newsletter. Usenet, a Portmanteau of "user" and "network" is a world-wide distributed Internet discussion system Objectivism is a Philosophy developed by Ayn Rand in the 20th century that encompasses positions on Metaphysics, Epistemology, [9]
