Great talk about the Higgs Boson, Large Hadron Collider and the world of physics. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X03hoHICT4A[/youtube] Also here is a good documentary about it. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raKN0RddL3A[/youtube] Here is another talk after the discovery [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RoDcQmodoq4[/youtube]
Amazing really! The Higgs field! It's like, we're at an age, where we are trying to understand the basics. Mankind thinks he's clever...and we are but... there's so much "stuff" we have no idea about! Read the book titled - Extreme Cosmos by Bryan Gaensler! Bryan is an Aussie, he's an amazing person. His book ISBN 9781742231112
1st guy looks like stephen king and as for the 2nd vid, well...geez that Morgan Freeman can act! [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4LZRLdyQl4[/youtube]
I'll put it in my to read list. Funny how with all the money, time and brain power that has gone into this area they are left asking more questions then before. It must be mentally draining for some of these guys to spend their whole life on a theory only to be left with more question or have it be proven wrong. But it also must make it very exciting as there is always something new up for grabs. I often lay at night thinking about how things might work, but every time i think about infinity my brain blanks out and i go to sleep
Is anyone else a giant nerd like me that they watched the Higgs announcement live? Undergraduate Atomic and Nuclear Physics is primary school compared to what they do at CERN etc.
I'm personally not that much of a nerd but I heard of it about two days later, thankyou Scishow and sixtysymbols and many other youtube science channels.
Infinity! Maybe our brains aren't developed enough to understand. Have you watched Michio Kaku's video's? Here's one of my favourites. Physics - black holes infinity, singularity and the universe by Michio kaku. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hydDhUNvva8
haha aww Michio, is there a video he's not in He is a rock star of Physics. i bet you he drives an NSX with some hot Japanese girl in the passenger seat
You can't not love Michio. I really enjoyed his SciFi Science and also Visions of The Future. We need a science and tech sub-forum.
