Professor Brian Cox - A Night with the Stars

westy says...

If anything this is a demonstration that you cannot explain quantum physics with basic analogies , Still I would much rather have lectures like this on tv than all the day to day shit thats on.

He did a very good job of explaining the slit experiment and some aspects of how electrons/matter behave and what matter is made of which is fantastic.

However to really understand quantum physics in any meaningful way you would probably first have to have a fairly strong understanding of maths , a solid understanding of partical physics and read or see all the major experiments and findings relating to the field.

I actually think its probably futile trying to explain or teach Quantum physics to the general public other than saying it exists and this is how things are. It would be far more productive teaching the importance of science and the scientific method and the philosophy of science as that is something that can be grasped fully by sum-one of very limited knowlage of the subject matter and has the largest ramifications.

Its painful how stupid the woman is or the fact that people in general might not know about the slit experiment I dont see how you could go through life without watching at least one science documentary or reading at least one book on physics.
