According to Craig Hogan, a physicist at the Fermilab particle physics lab in Batavia, Illinois, GEO600 has stumbled upon the fundamental limit of space-time. "If the GEO600 result is what I suspect it is, then we are all living in a giant cosmic hologram," he said. Our everyday experience might itself be a holographic projection of physical processes that take place on a distant, 2 dimensional surface. [more]
