Astronomy Video: How to Time Travel

From Denny: This has to be the clearest and easiest to understand introduction to what Einstein was talking about that I've ever seen! A real and fun mind trip...

From Denny: This awesome program really gets your creative thoughts spinning! :) Prof. Cox starts with talking about the Mayans and their knowledge and concepts of Time in video 1 and moves along to discussing Einsteins' classic theory about space-time continuum right up to Cox's field of quantum mechanics' view of Time. These videos are quite a thrill ride! :)

This video discusses Time beyond the Big Bang theory as all past, present and future exists somewhere in the space-time continuum and then gets into what the quantum mechanics folks think is true about Time.

These videos are quite a thrill ride! :) This one demos a new camera that can slow down Time into chunks we can easily see like any where from 80 times slower to 40,000 times slower. Reminds you of a circus fun house of mirrors.

A Good Science Quote

From Denny: I love a good quote by a scientist with a sense of humor who doesn't take themselves too seriously. Einstein was one of those rarest of creatures!

Quote

"I sometimes ask myself how it came about that I was the one to develop the theory of relativity. The reason, I think, is that a normal adult never stops to think about space and time. My intellectual development was retarded, as a result of which I began to wonder about space and time only when I had grown up."

- Albert Einstein
