    13:59 the Latin word celeritas comes from celer, meaning swift, fast, and the suffix -tas, a Latin equivalent to our English -ty or -ness. The word celer also appears in words like accelerate. In Classical Latin the c is usually pronounced as a k.

      Anybody can understand a well presented explanation. But not everyone can actually do the math which constitutes the true understanding of the concepts being explained. Most people love learning stories and facts about space but don't want to learn or perform math.

      Syntropy is dual to increasing entropy. Syntropy is the integration, convergence or union of information to form predictions, expectations -- mutual information.
      Integration is dual to differentiation.
      Entropy is the differentiation, divergence of information into new states.
      Consciousness is an active process, you focus your attention on objects, intentionality or teleology.
      Teleological physics is dual to non-teleological physics.

To myself, the teachers just threw the alphabet into a math problem and asked me to solve.. not understanding what I’m trying to solve so my algebra level is very low. I’m now in my mid 30s and find the way he explains and articulates everything so much easier to understand and think about. This is what the internet was meant to be for.

    Dear Prof. Greene,
    I'm a 66 years old quantum chemist also familiar (enough) with relativity and particle physics and biochemistry. Some 6 years ago I struggled through Einstein's field equations; unfortunately, the stuff fades away quickly if you don't do regular exercises. My primary interest is above all in the underlying brain behind that all. So I'm a really happy christian who loves to enter into discussions
    with "atheists". I count you among the friendliest representatives of a naturalistic world view; perhaps that is why I mention you so often in my local church community.
    I am looking forward to the discussions with you! Maybe a tip for the audience. It is best to learn the material through simple exercises. I highly recommend the instructional videos from Lenny Susskind. Greetings from the sunny side of Germany: Ludwigshafen, Rheinland-Pfalz!

So do we move through space/time or does space/time move through us? Some years ago, I lay on a stone bench under a russian olive tree next to a flowing river and I felt as if space/time was flowing through me. However, when I got on my bike to ride home, I felt as if I was moving through space/time. So it seems that the opposing perspectives regarding position and space/time are marvelously relative.

    “I’m getting a little long-winded here”. No, you most certainly are not! Your explanations are great! Would you consider doing a video on WHY the speed of light is constant? I’ve seen no end of videos explaining THAT the speed is constant, but not WHY it is constant.
    Thanks so much. You’re doing a real service here.

    You are a fantastic speaker of science. Sincere thanks for giving access to a better/easier understanding of these very meaningful scientific accomplishments. I do appreciate your proactive attitude to share your knowledge.

    Although I only had through high school physics +40 yrs ago, I find these videos to be both fascinating and easy to follow. My question about this equation concerns C2. Why is the speed of light squared?

    Great idea, Brian. I appreciate you and your efforts to communicate science and math to the public. What is disheartening is that so few human being actually understand the reality in which they live. Upward of 98% (my guess) live in ignorance. I've asked, "Does that matter?"

    light transport equations (interactions of light with matter; reflection, refraction, scattering, etc.). It’s a huge topic on its own, but it can be broken down into smaller parts, f.e. the Fresnel equations, solid angle equations, microfacet distributions, etc.

    My favorite two equations in all of physics are Schrödinger’s equation (time dependent but the time independent one is cool too, energy eigenstates are super useful), and the Lagrange-Euler equation. Both have profound uses in very different settings. Schrödinger’s equation governs the motion of the very small, while the LE equation governs the motion of the macro scale. LE strikes me on a different level since in classical mechanics, it seems that this weird equation just happens to give us exactly what Newton would predict, but without even thinking about forces. It’s not obvious why or how they work (at least to me), but they seem to work really well.
