NOTHING: The Science of Emptiness
Δημοσιεύτηκε στις 17 Σεπ 2014
Why
is there something rather than nothing? And what does ‘nothing’ really
mean? More than a philosophical musing, understanding nothing may be the
key to unlocking deep mysteries of the universe, from dark energy to
why particles have mass. Journalist John Hockenberry hosts Nobel
laureate Frank Wilczek, esteemed cosmologist John Barrow, and leading
physicists Paul Davies and George Ellis as they explore physics,
philosophy and the nothing they share.
This program is part of The Big Idea Series, made possible with support from the John Templeton Foundation.
The
World Science Festival gathers great minds in science and the arts to
produce live and digital content that allows a broad general audience to
engage with scientific discoveries. Our mission is to cultivate a
general public informed by science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of
its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.
