Welcome to Unfoldings, a subseries designed to support our regular monthly 'Infinite Now' chapters. Offering a deeper reflection upon some of the more nuanced philosophical and scientific concepts, as well as a place for our community to offer their thoughts, insights, and feedback. This week, we discuss the philosophy of science, the expansion of space, the timeless state of a photon, and the unavoidability of the observer. Enjoy!
