From the award-winning team that brought you The Secret Life of Chaos comes a unique television event on the physics of gravity, featuring unexpected historical insights, cutting-edge science and exciting new experiments.
With the brilliant Professor Jim Al-Khalili as our host, we visit the LIGO lab in the USA where gravity waves were discovered and uncover the latest theories about our cosmos that have come from studying the most intense sources of gravity imaginable – black holes.
Elsewhere, Jim even uses Albert Einstein’s theories of special and general relativity to work out how the rate at which you age is affected by gravity and the speed at which you move about.

For the last 12 years, Carter Emmart has been coordinating the efforts of scientists, artists and programmers to build a complete 3D visualization of our known universe. He demos this stunning tour and explains how its being shared with facilities around the world.
Это видео о том, почему слова переворачиваются в зеркале влево и вправо (горизонтально), но не вверх и вниз (вертикально). Ответ связан с зеркальным отражением, как будто зеркала это окна в другой мир (как альтернативные вселенные, вывернутые наизнанку!), и непрозрачностью того, на чем мы пишем.
CORRECTIONS
— At 01:51 I accidentally said “Senate” when I meant “Congress”. But on-screen it says “House Republicans” so I think it still makes sense despite my mis-speak.
— Let me know if you spot any more mistakes!
Thanks to my Patreons who mean I can keep throwing time and effort at videos about this election. And dont worry, I am a prudent spender of your money: that judges robe was hired not purchased outright. But I do now own the wig. www.patreon.com/standupmaths
As always: thanks to Jane Street who support my channel. Theyre amazing. www.janestreet.com/
