"Telephone" is a song by American singer Lady Gaga from her third EP The Fame Monster, featuring American R&B singer Beyoncé Knowles.
The main inspiration of the song was Gaga's fear of not being able to enjoy herself because of her career, hence the lyrics show the singer as wanting the dance floor, rather than answering her lover's phone calls.
Gaga explained that the telephone addressed in the lyrics of the song, is in reality a person telling her to continue working harder.
Musically, the song is made of an expanded bridge, verse-rap and an epilogue, where the voice of an operator says that the phone line is not reachable.
Knowles appears in the middle of the song, singing the verses in a rapid-fire way, accompanied by double beats.
"Telephone" was appreciated by contemporary critics who many times noted it as a stand-out track from The Fame Monster.
The song was nominated for a Grammy Award in 2011 for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals.
Lady Gaga originally wrote the song "Telephone" for Britney Spears.
Spears later recorded a demo version of the song but the demo version later leaked.
Lady Gaga later wrote the song as a collaboration with Beyoncé Knowles for The Fame Monster.
Gaga said, "I wrote it for her [Spears] a long time ago and she just didn't use it for her album.
It's fine because I love the song and I get to perform it now."
Additionally, the guest vocalist was originally going to be Spears, but ultimately Gaga made Knowles the featured vocalist instead.
The main inspiration behind the song was Gaga's fear of suffocation as she felt that she seldom found time to just let loose and have fun.
Fear of suffocation—something that I have or fear is never being able to enjoy myself, ... 'Cause I love my work so much, I find it really hard to go out and have a good time.
... I don't go to nightclubs, ... You don't see pictures of me falling out of a club drunk.
I don't go—and that's because I usually go and then, you know, a whiskey and a half into it, I got to get back to work.
In May 2011, Gaga said her "emotional connection" with the song was very hard.
When she was asked if it was because the song was originally written for Britney Spears, she answered: "Well that’s not exactly what happened, but I don’t want to delve into that.
I could delve into it if you turn that (motions to recorder) off... But ultimately the mix and the process of getting the production finished was very stressful for me.
So when I say it’s my worst song it has nothing to do with the song, just my emotional connection to it."
The video for the song was uploaded to YouTube on March 15, 2010.
It features Gaga in a women's prison and Beyoncé bailing her out.
In the beginning of the video, Gaga is shown walking around the prison and arrives to the yard, where "Paper Gangsta", a song from her debut album The Fame, is playing, as one of the women exercises.
Gaga's younger sister Natali makes a cameo appearance just before Gaga picks up the phone to talk to Beyoncé.
The two singers are then shown fleeing the prison in the Pussy Wagon and arrive to a restaurant, where they eventually poison all of the customers.
The nine-and-a-half-minute-long video for "Telephone" is meant to be a continuation of that for "Paparazzi", where Gaga was shown being arrested.

Flavivirus is a genus of the family Flaviviridae.
This genus includes the West Nile virus, dengue fever virus, tick-borne encephalitis virus, yellow fever virus, Zika virus, and several other viruses which may cause encephalitis (swelling in the brain).
Flaviviruses are named for the yellow fever virus - "flavus" means "yellow" in Latin.
(Yellow fever was named because it often caused yellow-colored skin, called jaundice, in its victims.)
Flaviviruses share a common size (40-65 nm) and symmetry (shape), and they look similar under an electron microscope.
They are made of single-stranded RNA.
Humans get these viruses after being bitten by an infected mosquito or tick.
Usually, if a human who has a Flavivirus gets bitten by a healthy mosquito or tick, the human will not have enough of the virus in their blood to infect the insect.
This means humans do not help continue the virus's life cycle (by infecting insects who go on to infect other people).
However, this is not true for yellow fever or dengue fever.
People can also get Flaviviruses in other ways, like:
Touching the dead bodies of animals who had a Flavivirus
Getting a blood transfusion from someone who has a Flavivirus
Having sex with someone who has a Flavivirus: this has been proven true at least for the Zika virus.
Drinking unpasteurized milk products
A fetus can get a Flavivirus from its mother during childbirth
It is not likely that animals can spread Flaviviruses directly to humans.
Scientists believe that an mosquito or tick has to bite an infected animal before it can spread the virus to a human by biting that human.
This means that Flaviviruses are probably not contagious diseases.
For example, early tests with yellow fever showed that the disease is not a contagious disease.
Cytomegalovirus (which means "Large Cell", when translated from Greek cyto-, "cell", and -megalo-, "large") is a Virus which people get.
It's a Herpesvirus and is usually called HCMV (Human Cytomegalovirus) or Human Herpesvirus 5 (HHV-5).
Two out of five people in the world have HCMV.
More people in developed countries, such as the United States and the United Kingdom, have the condition.
In these places, more than half of people have the condition.

Shichi-Go-San (seven-five-three in Japan) is one of the most important events for children in Japan.
Every year on November 15, parents whose children are three, five, and seven years old celebrate the growth of their child.
In the past, death rates of infants were higher than present, so children were treated importantly.
People have started to celebrate seven, five and three years old of children since the Edo period.
Especially, celebrations of seven year old children are most important.
On this special day, children wear kimono and they are given chitose-ame.
Chitose-ame is a long red and white candy.
This candy means children can grow well.
People go to the shrine to play the growth of their children.
Also, people sometimes take some pictures to the memory of children.

He was French consul general at Cairo, and overseer in the Levant.
He formulated an evolutionary hypothesis to explain the Earth and its contents.
Maillet's geological observations convinced him that the Earth could not have been created in an instant because the features of the crust indicate a slow development by natural processes.
He also believed that creatures on the land were ultimately derived from creatures living in the seas.
He believed in the natural origin of man.
Maillet made the first reasonable estimate of the Earth's age based on evidence.
Maillet estimated that the Earth was older than two billion years.
Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber von Bibern (baptised 12 August 1644 – died 3 May 1704) was a Bohemian-Austrian composer and violinist.
He was the most famous German violinist of his time.
He is particularly famous for his violin sonatas.
Biber was born in a small Bohemian town near Reichenberg.
Nothing is known about his music education.
We know that in the mid-1660s he went to work for Prince-Bishop Karl, Count Liechtenstein-Kastelkorn of Olomouc.
The prince loved music and kept many musicians at his court.
During the winter of 1670-1671 Biber became a member of the Kapelle at Salzburg court.
He was married there in 1672.
There he played the violin and trained the choirboys and composed a lot of music.
He probably had a lot of contact with other well-known musicians such as Georg Muffat.
Although he was the greatest virtuoso of his time he hardly seems to have travelled about to play.
In 1690 Biber was raised to the nobility.
During his last years he seems to have spent much of his time composing works for the theatre as well as sacred music.
The ilium is one of the three bones which make up the pelvis in tetrapods.
These include the bones that are usually called "hips", e.g. 'putting your hands on your hips'.
he:אגן#כסל
The ulna is one of the two bones which make up the lower forearm in tetrapods.
The other one is the radius.
Above them is the elbow and humerus; below are the hands or front feet.
The radius is one of the two bones which make up the lower forearm in tetrapods.
The other one is the ulna.
The humerus is the upper forearm bone in tetrapods.
It connects to the shoulder blade (scapula) at the upper end, and the elbow below.
The scapula is the shoulder blade or pectoral girdle bone in tetrapods.
It connects to the humerus and the clavicle.
The femur is the thighbone in tetrapods.
It connects to the pelvis (hip) at the upper end and to the knee at the lower end.
It connects with the hip by a ball-and-socket joint which allows freedom of movement.
The lower end of the femur forms a hinge with the lower leg known as the knee.
This has two 'articulations': with the patella (knee-cap), and with the tibia (the main lower leg bone).The femur is also the longest and strongest bone in your body.
Rites of Spring was an American post-hardcore band from Washington, D.C. in the mid-1980s, known for their fact, jumpy live performances.
A part of the D.C. hardcore punk scene, Rites of Spring increased the violence and passion of hardcore while at the same time experimenting with its rules.
Lyrically, they also moved hardcore into very personal realms and, in doing so, are usually considered the first emo band.
The band only performed 15 concerts.
Vocalist/guitarist Guy Picciotto and drummer Brendan Canty went on to play in the influential post-hardcore band Fugazi in the late 1980s.
The fibula is one of the two bones which make up the lower leg (humans), or back leg in tetrapods.
The other one is the tibia.
Above them is the knee and femur; below are the feet.
Muscles are attached to the top of the fibula which help move the knee.
It is also used to support the knee and the tibia.
Category theory is a type of mathematics.
Category theorists show how different ideas in mathematics are alike.
For example, some ideas from topology and abstract algebra are similar.
Ideas in category theory are written down in formulas or diagrams.
Category theory can be used to make computer programs more secure or easy to write.
A category is a mathematical object.
It can be drawn with dots and arrows.
Each arrow goes from one dot to one other dot.
There can be many dots, sometimes so many that you cannot count them.
An arrow is the abstract idea of a function and the dots are the domain and codomain of the function.
Composition is a way to make a new arrow out of two arrows.
If two arrows form an elbow shape, then they have a composition arrow from the start of the first to the end of the second.
Composition obeys some axioms, or equations.
Many ideas in abstract algebra are examples of categories or can be used to make categories.
Often, this makes the ideas seem more similar.
Radio drama (or audio drama, audio play, radio play, radio theatre, or audio theatre) is a dramatized, purely acoustic performance without visual elements.
It is usually heard on radio or published as audiobook.
Radio drama is often described as "cinema for the ears".
It had its greatest popularity in the Golden Age of Radio, before television was introduced.
Quango is an acronym used especially in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland.
Quangos are arms-length bodies funded by government departments but not run by them.
They are given power and paid for by government departments.
They were invented because most government departments do two rather different jobs.
One is to make policy about how the country should be run, as indicated by laws passed in Parliament.
This is called administration.
Their other task is to run or operate the policies in action.
Examples would be: to run the prison system, to collect taxes, to guard the country's borders, and so on.
Quangos were invented to do the second type of task.
They are supposed to do some practical job better than a government department could.
Of course, if they fail, the fault is theirs, rather than the government department's.
The acronym QUANGO is spelt out in various ways:
• quasi non-governmental organisation,
• quasi-autonomous non-governmental organisation,
• quasi-autonomous national government organisation
• In the United Kingdom the official term is non-departmental public body or NDPB.
The term 'quasi-autonomous non-governmental organization' was created in 1967 by the Carnegie Foundation's Alan Pifer.
He wrote an essay on independence and accountability in public-funded bodies.
This term was shortened to 'quango' by Anthony Barker, a Briton, during a follow-up conference.
Many quangos were created from the 1980s onwards.
The UK government's definition in 1997 of a non-departmental public body or quango was:
"A body which has a role in the processes of national government, but is not a government department or part of one, and which accordingly operates to a greater or lesser extent at arm's length from government Ministers".
According to the Tax Payers Alliance, in the year 2006-07, tax payers funded 1,162 Quangos at a cost of nearly £64bn; equivalent to £2,550 per household.
About a thousand still remain.
In 2010 the British Government said it had earmarked (chosen) nearly 200 quangos for closure, and 120 more for merging.
This was part of its Whitehall efficiency programme.
In August 2012, the government said that 106 quangos had lost their public status since then.
Some were axed, some were sold off, and some had their work done elsewhere.
Depending upon one's point of view, the separation of a quango from government might allow its functions to be more commercially exercised.
Or else it might allow an elected minister to evade responsibility for spending public money.
Quangos have been criticised as undemocratic, expensive and letting government grow too big.
The Times has accused quangos of bureaucratic waste and excess.
In 2005 Dan Lewis, author of The Essential Guide to Quangos, claimed that many quangos were useless and duplicated the work of others.
In August 2008 a report by the right-leaning pressure group the Taxpayers' Alliance, claimed that £15 billion was being wasted by the regional development agencies, quangos set up to encourage economic development in their regions.

Daniel Vladimir Lewicki (March 12, 1931 – September 25, 2018) was a Canadian retired professional ice hockey left winger.
He played for the Toronto Maple Leafs, Chicago Black Hawks and New York Rangers of the National Hockey League (NHL) in the 1950s and early 1960s.
Before becoming a professional, Lewicki was at the centre of a dispute over professional hockey signing practices.
He was the only player to have won the Allan Cup, Memorial Cup and Stanley Cup while still a junior.
Lewicki was one of eight children in the family of Michael and Anastasia Lewicki.
Both Michael and Anastasia were born in Ukraine and emigrated to Canada where they met in Fort William, Ontario.
The family lived in the area known as the "Coal Docks", an immigrant enclave near the docks in Fort William.
The family shared a home with six boarders.
In an abusive marriage, Anastasia left Michael when Daniel was two years of age.
Two of the children were sent to Geraldton, Ontario where the eldest sister lived with her husband.
Daniel, his mother, a sister and brother and a boarder lived in a two-room shack  by .
Lewicki started skating at age five, first with bob skates, then a used pair three sizes too large.
Until age twelve, Lewicki learned to play hockey by playing shinny on outdoor rinks.
Organized hockey started at age twelve and Lewicki joined the Bantam Elks.
This he did in secret, as his mother was strongly opposed to his playing hockey.
Lewicki would hide his hockey equipment outside under the backyard stairs.
The next season, Lewicki played for the North Star Bantams, moving up to the Midgets at age fourteen a year early, to play against boys sixteen and older.
Hockey career
Junior hockey
At age fifteen, Lewicki got his first taste of junior hockey with the Columbus Juniors in their playoffs against the Winnipeg Monarchs.
Lewicki would return to the Columbus Juniors the following season.
That season, Lewicki would lead the Fort William league in scoring, and started attracting the attention of pro scouts from Toronto, New York and Detroit.
Lewicki did not sign with any team, but was placed on the negotiating list of the Providence Reds by his coach, Leo Barbini, who did some scouting for the Reds.
Barbini somehow managed to put Lewicki on the Providence list before Toronto and New York, who had filed at 12:01 am on Lewicki's sixteenth birthday.
The following season, Columbus would be defeated by the Port Arthur West End Bruins.
After the series, Lewicki was invited to join the Bruins as they continued in junior series playoffs.
The Bruins would defeat Winnipeg to advance to the Western title series against Lethbridge, Alberta.
Port Arthur and Lethbridge would be tied 3–3 in a best-of-seven series.
Lethbridge refused to play the seventh game in Port Arthur and the game was moved to Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens.
The large ice surface favoured the Bruins and they defeated Lethbridge 11–1 to advance to the 1948 Memorial Cup final against the Barrie Flyers.
The Bruins would defeat the Flyers in four straight to win the Cup and Lewicki would score the series-winning goal.
The club had an impressive array of talent.
Eight players from the Bruins would go on to play in the NHL.
Lewicki was the top scorer in the playoffs, recording 40 points.
After the Cup, the Toronto Maple Leafs bought the rights to Lewicki for a record price of $35,000 and a player.
In the fall, Lewicki left Port Arthur to join the Stratford Kroehlers, coached by Barbini, his old coach.
Before the regular season started, Lewicki was ordered to join the Toronto Marlboros by  the Maple Leafs.
Unbeknownst to Lewicki, Barbini had signed Lewicki to a "C" Form, which bound Lewicki at age eighteen, and not simply signed Lewicki to a negotiating list.
Lewicki refused to play for Toronto, but was told that he had to play for the Marlboros, or nowhere else.
Lewicki received a telegram from NHL President Clarence Campbell advising him that he was suspended.
The Canadian Amateur Hockey Association took up Lewicki's case, but the CAHA stopped backing Lewicki short of any legal action.
Stratford did as well, in the face of pressure from the Maple Leafs.
Lewicki decided to join the Marlboros.
The "C" Form, which Lewicki signed, became an issue in the Canadian Parliament, and was abolished a few years later.
The Marlboros were defeated in the playoffs that year, and, like in Port Arthur, Lewicki was invited to join another team on a playoff run.
This time it was the Marlboros' senior team, in competition for the Allan Cup.
The Marlboros defeated the Kitchener-Waterloo Dutchmen, then the Cornwall Calumets, the Sault Ste.
Marie Greyhounds and the Sherbrooke Saints to advance to the 1950 Allan Cup final against the Calgary Stampeders.
Lewicki would be named the MVP for the series as the Marlboros defeated Calgary 4–1.
Lewicki scored 42 points in the 17 playoff games.
In 1950, Lewicki began his National Hockey League career with the Maple Leafs.
As a nineteen-year-old, he made the team straight out of training camp.
Lewicki was able to get a one-way contract at $10,000 for three years and a signing bonus of $3,000.
Lewicki made his NHL debut on October 14, 1950 against the Chicago Black Hawks.
In his seventh game, Lewicki scored his first NHL goal on a bounce off the glass that bounced off the back of the Boston Bruins Jack Gelineau.
Lewicki became a contender for the Calder Trophy, although he had strong competition from future Hall of Famer Terry Sawchuk.
Lewicki had 16 goals and 31 assists before a groin injury ended his season early.
Lewicki would end up third in voting for the Calder.
The team finished second to qualify for the playoffs.
Lewicki was pressed into service on the orders of Conn Smythe, although he was not healed.
To play he had to have his groin muscle frozen and taped before each game.
Instead of being able to contribute as a scorer, Lewicki would play a checking role in the playoffs.
The Leafs would defeat the Montreal Canadiens in the final 4–1 to win the 1951 Stanley Cup Final.
Lewicki was an Allan Cup, Memorial Cup and Stanley Cup winner at the age of 20.
Lewicki spent the next three seasons mainly with the Leafs' Pittsburgh Hornets.
Smythe was mad at Lewicki for getting married during the 1951 off-season.
In Smythe's memoirs, he later regretted demoting a player to the minors for getting married, without naming the player.
Lewicki may be the player, but he is not the only player to be demoted for that reason.
Lewicki and another Leaf player John McCormack were both demoted following marriages.
Despite a 36-goal, 45 assist and 81 point season in Pittsburgh, in 1954, the Maple Leafs sold Lewicki to the New York Rangers.
Back in the NHL, Lewicki would respond with the best NHL season of his career, scoring 29 goals and 24 assists in 70 games and was named to the NHL Second All-Star team.
After the 1957–58 season, the Rangers left him unprotected for the annual intra-league draft, and Lewicki became Montreal Canadiens property.
Although he had a good training camp, and earned a bonus for his play, he was shipped to the Chicago Black Hawks.
Lewicki and other players who had been picked from the Rangers' system were picked by the Canadiens simply to hurt the Rangers and the Canadiens had no plans to play them.
Lewicki played one season for the Black Hawks, who managed to make the playoffs, only to lose in the first round.
In the final game of the playoff, referee Red Storey missed a tripping call leading to a series winning goal by the Canadiens.
The fans at Chicago Stadium were threatening Storey, and Lewicki gave Storey his stick to defend himself.
Lewicki was unhappy after sitting on the bench, and he handed Storey his stick, saying "you need it more than me."
Storey used the stick to defend himself to exit the arena.
It would be both Storey and Lewicki's last game in the NHL.
Storey resigned after criticism from league president Campbell, and the Black Hawks would sent Lewicki to the minors.
Lewicki contends that the incident led to him being 'black-balled' from the league as he received no call-ups or any chances to make another NHL club for the rest of his career.
Lewicki played for a few seasons in the American Hockey League before retiring in 1963.

Jundallah (or Jondallah, translates to Soldiers of God), or People's resistance movement of Iran (PRMI) is a militant organisation based in Balochistan.
The organisation claims to be fighting for the rights of Sunni muslims in Iran.
Most muslims in Iran are Shi'a, Sunni make up for the largest group that is not Shi'a.
Iran says the group is a terrorist organisation.
Iran has blamed the organisation for many acts of smuggling illegal drugs, and of kidnapping.
The organisation is believed to have 1.000 fighting soldiers.
Many observers believe the group is linked to al-Qaeda.
For a long time, Iran has believed that the U.S. government supported Jundallah.
Several other sources such as the ABC News, Daily Telegraph, and journalist Seymour Hersh have also reported that Jundullah has received support from the United States against the government of Iran, although the US denies any involvement.

A flame retardant is a chemical substance that makes things harder to burn.
Some flame retardants are minerals or inorganic compounds like antimony trioxide or asbestos.
Other flame retardants are special types of plastics and polymers.
There are several ways flame retardants work.
Some absorb heat when they are heated, stopping the thing from igniting.
Others stop the heat from the fire from going into the thing.
Flame retardants are used in textiles and bedding to prevent them from burning easily.
The Solingen arson attack of 1993 happened on the night of 29 May 1993 when five Turkish people were killed in Solingen, Germany.
They died when four young German men, belonging to the political far right, firebombed a house.
The dead were women and children, aged four, nine, 12, 18 and 27, all of whom who were related.
The attack caused many protests in Germany, and many German government officials were at a memorial service for the dead.
Some of the protests were violent, but others were peaceful.
Because of the attack, Germany decided to make sure fewer people from other countries came into Germany for political asylum.
It also banned some right-wing political groups.
On 14 October 1995, a German court sentenced the four people who did the attack.
Three men, aged 18, 19 and 22, were given prison terms of ten years.
The fourth man, 25, was given a term of 15 years.
The sentences were opposed by the men and their families, though most of the Turkish people in Germany approved of them.
Some Turkish people wanted the men to get life terms in jail.

Hyperthermophiles are extremophile organisms that live best in very hot environments– from 60°C (140°F) up to 100°C (212°F).
The best temperature for hyperthermophiles to grow at is around 80°C (176°F).
Hyperthermophiles are mostly in the Archaea domain, but some bacteria are able to tolerate temperatures of around 100°C (212°F) as well.
Many hyperthermophiles are also able to tolerate other environmental extremes, like high acidity or radiation levels.
Solder is a metal or alloy that melts at a low temperature.
There are two types of solder; soft solder and hard solder.
Soft solder melts easily with soldering irons and is used for electronics and electrical work.
Hard solder melts at a higher temperature with a torch.
Using solder is called soldering.
There are two main types of soft solder; lead solder and lead-free solder.
Lead solders have about 60% (or 63%) tin and 40% (or 37%) lead in them.
They are toxic because they have lead in them.
They melt at around 185°C.
Lead solder is cheap, so it used to be popular.
In plumbing, a 50% tin and 50% lead mixture was used.
People thought this was safe, but then they saw that the lead was coming into the water.
Now lead solder is illegal for water.
Lead solder was once used for food cans.
After many years, the lead could come into the food.
The cans poisoned people who ate the food.
Lead solder is still used in electronics.
In 2006 the European Union, China, and California banned lead in consumer products.
Lead solder became illegal in electronic devices in some places.
Lead-free solder was needed.
Many lead-free solders have tin, silver, and copper in them.
They melt around 217°C.
Sometimes indium is added to the solder to make it better, but indium is very expensive.
Many times when a metal is being soldered, it oxidizes, making a layer of metal oxide that does not hold solder.
Flux is added to react with the metal oxide and turn it back into the metal again.
That helps the solder connect to the metal.
Rosin is a common flux.
Some electronics makers use fluxes that can be washed away with water.
Some solders have a flux core, where the flux is inside the solder.
Another type of solder is used to connect glass to other things.
They melt around 450-550°C.
Frame dragging is a theory which says that space is elastic, and particles in it will exchange energy with it.
In the scientific world, "elastic" means that when you apply a certain amount of force to an object (which will cause it to bend) and then remove the force, the object will return to its original shape and energy state.
Also, space is referred to as spacetime, which is simply a way to bring together the concepts of space and time.
This basically means that whenever space is affected, time is affected.
Frame dragging would provide answers for very old questions about gravity, strong force,  and wave-particle duality (how things like electrons can act like waves and particles at the same time).
Frame Dragging Effects
In frame dragging, particles spin, and this spin has energy in it. (
It is important to note that this is not quantum physics spin, but an actual angular momentum spin; the particles are actually spinning).
Since spacetime is elastic in this theory, it can absorb the energy (spin) of the particle.
This would slow down the spin of the particle.
Mass has a strange effect that we experience in the normal world: it attracts other mass.
Scientists have been spending centuries trying to explain this occurrence.
Recently, they have discovered that mass has an effect that it can curve spacetime.
This means that when mass is present, the shortest path through spacetime between two points is slightly bent towards wherever the mass is.
Since the energy absorbed by spacetime has to go somewhere, many scientists predict that spacetime would be "bunched up," or folded.
This can also be phrased as a curvature (bend) in spacetime.
This would indicate that the particle generated gravity.
The reason that this theory is called "frame dragging" is probably due to the effect of particles effectively "dragging" or "grabbing" spacetime as they spin.
Not only would space be curved, but time would as well.
However, the way to imagine this "gravity" is not so much as the force that we normally consider when we think of gravity, since normal gravity is created as well (due to its mass).
Basically, frame dragging is an effect that occurs when one object is moving near another, which makes both objects change their motion because of the other's motion.
Frame dragging does not occur if an object is neither spinning nor moving.
In effect, one object "deflects" the motion of the other, and the other way around.
Wave-Particle Duality
Scientists such as Einstein and Schrödinger spent much of their lives trying to find an answer for how something like an electron can act like a wave and also act like a particle.
Frame dragging states that since spacetime is elastic, it can also give the spin-energy back to the particle.
Once the particle has all of  its spin-energy given back to it, it acts most like a wave.
At that point, it will once again begin using its energy bunching up spacetime.
Once the particle is no longer spinning, it acts most like a particle.
Then, spacetime begins giving the particle its energy back, and the cycle continues forever.
This is how a particle can actually act like a particle and a wave at nearly the same time.
No energy is lost during the cycle due to the conservation of energy.
Strong force
Frame dragging also has an effect that if one particle is next to another, they can both save energy if one is absorbing energy as the other one is emitting it. (
This can also increase the mass of both particles, using Einstein's famous equation that energy is equal to a certain amount of mass).
This would encourage particles to group together, which would explain what strong force (a force that holds protons and neutrons in an atom nucleus together) is.
Evidence for Frame Dragging
There are effects that come out of the math of the frame dragging theory.
Scientists are currently testing one which is that if one small spinning object is orbiting a larger spinning object, the smaller object will slowly adjust its spin axis (the imaginary line which an object rotates around) to align with the larger object's spin axis.
This is known as the Lense-Thirring effect.
They are testing this theory by having a gyroscope (an object that will normally keep its spin axis the same) orbit the Earth, and testing whether its spin axis will align with the Earth's spin axis.
So far, scientist say that they have evidence that proves the Lense-Thirring effect (and possibly the frame dragging theory) to less than .5% accuracy.
