Bernard Haisch

Bernard Michael Haisch is a German-born American astrophysicist who has researched solar-stellar astrophysics, quantum electrodynamics (QED), observational X-ray and ultraviolet astronomy, and stochastic electrodynamics. Haisch, with Alfonso Rueda, developed a quantum vacuum inertia hypothesis proposing that the electromagnetic zero-point field contributes to inertial mass.

In 2002, Haisch became Chief Science Officer of ManyOne Networks. Since 2004, he has served as president of the Digital Universe Foundation, which aimed to create a peer-reviewed online encyclopedia as an alternative to Wikipedia. In 2006, Haisch published The God Theory: Universes, Zero-Point Fields and What's Behind It All, proposing that consciousness creates matter rather than vice versa, and that discoveries in quantum physics point to an underlying intelligence in the universe. Haisch attributes his spiritual interests to his studies at the Latin School of Indianapolis and the Saint Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology.
