Michio Kaku - "The World in 2030"


It's time for a new video. This time it's a daily dose of Michio Kaku. It's a lecture about the world of the future. Kaku discuses the technology, science and daily life of the future. 

Dr. Michio Kaku is a theoretical physicist and the Henry Semat Professor at the City College of New York and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, where he has taught for more than 30 years. He is a graduate of Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and earned his doctorate from the University of California at Berkeley.

Dr. Kaku is one of the founders of string field theory, a field of research within string theory. String theory seeks to provide a unified description for all matter and the fundamental forces of the universe. 

So long story short Michio Kaku is this charismatic guy who has the talent to make physics interesting for everyone. So enjoy!

So You Want to Study Physics?


What sorts of things get physicists (or wannabe physicists, like the teacher of this class) excited? Is it the dream of building grand intellectual edifices capable of describing the Universe with amazing accuracy and elegance? Or, perhaps, discovering something so unexpected that it totally blows your mind? Maybe it's simply the act of doing physics! Whatever the case, there are certainly many things in physics to get excited about, and this great video explores them.

An Amazing Lecture By Sir Roger Penrose


Recently I had an amazing opportunity to attend a lecture by the Sir Roger Penrose himself. Roger Penrose is a great mathematician and mathematical physicist working in a variety of fields of physics and mathematics. He is also a very famous author of books such as The Road to Reality, and The Cycles of Time.

His lecture was about trying to answer the question "Can We See Through The Big Bang to Another Universe?". In other words, the lecture was about one of the theories of Roger Penrose, regarding the history and the fate of the universe, the so called cyclic model of aeons.

In conclusion, it was a great lecture. I have to be honest I didn't understand some of the parts, however some really unique and fascinating ideas were presented, which I really liked. And it is needless to say that the feeling of attending a lecture with the top notch physicists and mathematicians was really amazing.

But these aren't the only good news. I happen to found another recording on Sir Roger Penrose lecture about the same topic. I listen through it and it's the same lecture. So here it is and I hope you enjoy it.


Thanks for reading!

How to Survive a Nuclear Attack?


My last post about nuclear bombs and explosions led me to do more research about nuclear explosions and attacks. After all, it's a very fascinating subject, especially these days, when a nuclear war looks more like a fantasy than a reality. But what if...?



What if a nuclear war actually took place these days? Would we be ready? While looking for an answer to this question I found a great lecture by Irwin Redlener, which I would like to share. Enjoy:
