Michio Kaku: The Universe in a Nutshell

The Universe in a Nutshell: The Physics of Everything Michio Kaku, Henry Semat Professor of Theoretical Physics at CUNY What if we could find one single equation that explains every force in the universe? Dr. Michio Kaku explores how physicists may shrink the science of the Big Bang into an equation as small as Einstein's "e=mc^2." Thanks to advances in string theory, physics may allow us to escape the heat death of the universe, explore the multiverse, and unlock the secrets of existence. While firing up our imaginations about the future, Kaku also presents a succinct history of physics and makes a compelling case for why physics is the key to pretty much everything.

  1. Idk if i would be surprised by future technologies, I would just be curious to how they made it work.
  2. 31:49 The Flash season 1 ?
  3. We are studying something that was created by a simulation, that WE are in. We talk about singularity as if it's dangerous, not knowing that WE are already reaching singularity, each and every one of US is an AI improving our efficiency on this world and passing it on. WE will reach singularity and break free from this simulation and discover what is beyond THIS fake reality.
  4. Great explanation, books are wrong ,most of universe is Dark ,even I understood ....
  5. The moon is actually getting further, not closer.
  6. I'm not bad at physics I'm just terrible at math.
  7. >claims he is a scientist
    >uses imperial system
  8. "In a nutshell" - 40 min video
  9. WE NEED TO TALK ONE DAY. I see things others have not and you are smarter than I am. May be I am behind my times and haven't read about what I see. I would love to pick your brain.
  10. Michio Kaku contributes this society great science knowledge. People like me interested knowing about the universe but never know where you can find someone made so interesting to listen to and leaning the knowledge the same time. Thanks to Michio Kaku, scientist.
  11. I think it's amazing that he takes the time to do a video like this. Every second he is alive is important!!! As with all the other GENIUSES in the world. Thank You so much for bringing this down to a level an average guy like me can understand and value.
  12. lol that "intel inside"
  13. So after all this science? I don't hear about the need for life elongation? So our purpose is to basically pass on knowledge to the next generation of the human species in continuation of the understanding of meaning? So what next after understanding that we are in the probability of extinction in the long run and our only hope is storing our intelligence in a medium that cannot be destroyed? Otherwise Matter cant make it through the wormhole. not in our lifetime per say?
  14. scary message
  15. Albert Einstein is very beautiful mind! I'm starting to love you!
  16. when you feel more smart after watching the video and then watch the comments and then get brain damage
  17. deliver, me , isis
  18. Collision machine: get involved with bomb maker. Be careful, this is not a game.
  19. Why play with the Creation in such a way. If the atoms don't smash on each other naturally, don't make them do it. Science should be based on observation, once you get into interference with Nature, it's one step too far.
  20. Anyone who denies Albert Einstein is just regurgitating some shit they heard from a salty failed-scientist blogger.
