What Atoms Really Look Like: The Quantum Model Explained
When Ernest Rutherford realized that atoms have a heavy nucleus, he hypothesized that the way the moon orbits earth is the same as the way an electron orbits the nucleus of atoms. We now know an atom would...

Why Gravity Defies Quantum Mechanics: The Ongoing Challenge
In a classical universe, if we knew all the positions and velocities for all particles, we could predict the future and the past. Quantum mechanics is not like this. It shows that reality is not deterministic but is...

The Surprising Truth About the Higgs Boson "Discovery" at CERN
In 2012, the Higgs boson (the God Particle) was discovered. It's responsible for giving mass to fundamental particles. But the scientists never measured the particle. So how can scientists claim a discovery without...

The Mathematical Basis of All Matter Comes From This Useless Equation
The Dirac equation holds the secrets to everything that we can see in the universe. In this video, I show how with this equation, we can start with a completely empty universe, make just one assumption, ask just one simple...

String Theory Simplified: Could It Explain Our Existence?
What is string theory? When string theory is simplified - it can answer the question "Why do we exist?" First you must accept that there are two worlds we live in - the world of the large, the world we can see, which...

What Is Time? Exploring One of Physics’ Deepest Mysteries
In quantum mechanics, it’s just as natural to go forward in time as going backwards. And if you look at a typical Feynman diagram, you can turn the diagram either way. Where does this transition from time symmetry...
