		<description><![CDATA[By David Siegel Bernstein, PhD In the S4F post, If You are Uncertain—Call a Quantum Mechanic for a Fix, I provided a summary of quantum physics—which I must remind you is something that cannot be summarized. The post had described phenomena such as quantum fuzziness, uncertainty, and the wave-particle duality, all of which, technically, are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As summer approaches, I find myself looking forward to having more writing time. One of my kids is away at camp, which leaves me a few more hours each week to concentrate on my own stuff. But the prospect is also a little daunting, because along with the extra time comes the pressure of getting [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the recent retirement of the Space Shuttle, my thoughts have turned to the stars. Outer space has always served as an evocative backdrop for some amazing sci-fi stories, so how do they come up with all those ideas in the first place? To give you a push in the right direction, I have combed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By David Siegel Bernstein, PhD I’m not sure a Kardashian (i.e. those inhabiting planet Reality Television) can help you understand science or write fiction, but astronomer Nikolai Kardashev is another matter entirely.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the best aspects of being a writer is that we are truly limited only by our imaginations. But sometimes even those of us with the most radical frontal lobes need a kick start. Where do we go to emerge from the dull malaise of the mind? Fortunately, those in search of inspiration never [...]]]></description>

Or, how about cloaking your starship as you sneak past an enemy armada? If you have thought about it, then read on. But beware: the methods of invisibility [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It doesn’t take much to go from science fact to science fiction. Especially when some scientific theories and experiments are so far out there to begin with. But when it comes to writing, being able to tweak something that’s scientifically plausible just enough to create an interesting, dramatic story is a valuable skill. Fortunately, that’s [...]]]></description>
