Summary Of Blythe Woolston's The Freak Observer

According to BlytheWoolston.com, “The Freak Observer is about death, life, astrophysics, and finding beauty in chaos.” As simple as this description is, it accurately conveys the key ideas of the novel. The Freak Observer, written by Blythe Woolston, presents physics as a coping mechanism for the death of the main character’s little sister and best friend. Loa, the main character, uses her physics homework to deal with this burden. The setting of The Freak Observer is Southern California. This book was published in August 2010 by Lerner Publishing Group, and contains 209 pages.
The Freak Observer opens as Loa witnesses her best friend, Ester, die in a car accident. Her involvement in this incident brings back vivid memories of her little
It is hypothesized to exist because of an infinite number of universes has been hypothesized to exist. Given so much infinity, it is probable that something like a naked brain floating in space just spontaneously happens.” (Woolston 1421). The Freak Observer is based on an idea called the Boltzmann Brain Paradox. The Boltzmann Brain Paradox has been brought forward as an explanation for why we witness so much organization in the universe. Dr. William Craig, a Talbot School of Theology professor, explains the Boltzmann Brain Paradox as this: “It is far more likely that a single brain would fluctuate into existence out of the vacuum than that a universe finely tuned as this, with a low entropy condition like this, would come to exist. So it is far more likely that if we were just a random member of a world ensemble that we would be a Boltzmann Brain and that anything around us is really an illusion. If you think that you are not a Boltzmann Brain, it therefore follows that you are not just a random member of this world ensemble, that in fact, isn’t such a world ensemble, that you are just randomly a member of the universe.” The Boltzmann Brain Theory continues to baffle
