  • The final part of Professor Jim Al-Khalili's documentary series about the basic building block of our universe, the atom.
    Al-Khalili explores how studying the atom forced us to rethink the nature of reality itself, encountering ideas that seem like they are from science fiction but in fact are a central part of modern science. He discovers that there might be parallel universes in which different versions of us exist and finds out that empty space is not empty at all, but seething with activity.
    The world we think we know - the solid, reassuring world of our senses - turns out to be a tiny sliver of an infinitely weirder and more wonderful universe than we had ever conceived in our wildest fantasies.
    The story of the discovery that everything is made from atoms, one of the greatest scientific breakthroughs in history, and the brilliant minds behind it.

      @@MOSMASTERINGhe’s a physicist who knows his subject but also has the ability to be engaging and can present the information in a way we can all enjoy.
      I would think he wrote the script in conjunction with others who also know the subject along with people who know what approach will work for those who will watch programmes like this.
      Some people know their subject and are brilliant at it but cannot explain it very well. Others can explain it in an engaging way but don’t necessarily understand it as well.
      Jim Al Khalili is one of those few who can do both.
      Richard Feynman was another who could do this as was Carl Sagan

    Jim is in the top 5 physicists that I like to listen to. It's hard to imagine anyone could be better than him. His voice is being drowned out by the sound effects/music in parts of many of his video's. I cannot understand how whoever was/is responsible for this is not aware of this egregious mistake. I mean he/she had to have listened to and edited the work before putting it out for public consumption. Are they deaf?

      What you are watching are not the originals. They are processed and uploaded by a giant holding company in France (Banijay). Thus you are watching an at least 3rd generation copy. During down/upload, the sound has been compressed and the frequency of the audio jiggered all to hell. It's not that they're deaf, it's that it (Banjjay) is so big, it just doesn't care. I've seen many of these videos as originals on PBS and BBC, and the original picture and audio are excellent.

      I agree he is very good at presenting the concepts shared in the series of these summary science episodes. I am curious how much he is involved with the creation of the content deciding on what the most relevant portions and people too present during the short amount of time allotted for each episode. I have always been excited to follow along from time to time and get a glimpse of how the theories and models are being refined, re-imagined or rebuked. As a kid I recall another series from the BBC with a presenter I am reminded of when watching these series, Jame's Burke in the series "The day the Universe changed" he also presented another shorter 10 episode series call "Connections". I think those series more than anything I was presented within in school inspired a curiosity and desire to do more investigations on my own time as a youth. I always love to hear of such stories about the young rebels of science who have the nerve and wit to challenge the established main stream and get it right even if not always right away. As much as you hear or read about those in the field of science practicing the "scientific method" of following the empirical evidence through rigorous experimentation, observation and a good dose of skepticism along the way, once a group of "The established" Authoritarians have settled on acceptance of a theory, especially one that persists unchallenged for more than several decades or longer, it seems at least to me, that they will hold onto that idea tighter than (you fill in the blank) which while it's undeniably important to keep a healthy dose of skepticism anytime well established "Theories" are challenged they are just that after all "Theories" and if young physicist or academics or a team of seasoned experimenters have some radical new concepts which they can back up with some type of observable phenomena or mathematical models that might turn the establishment on it's ear, they will have too have the backbone and stomach to face the "scientific Inquisition" just to be heard out and possibly face such ridicule and reputation crushing backlash that it's far more reasonable to decide that your financial security and current acceptance in your field is far more important that the possibility that you may be onto something of true insight. Feynman, love him or not, I believe was one of those such characters IMHO. I enjoyed learning more about his scientific contributions, lectures at Cal-Tech and his Social antics with a child-like unquenchable curiosity, prankster-ish attitude and fierce intelligence with a "I don't give a hoot if you think I am right" here it is and here are a few mathematical "proofs" to put in your stockings, attitude, that drove and motivated him. He is and academic you could point to who bucks to saying "Those who can't do, Teach". Well anyways! I applaud Mr. Al-Khalili and wish him many more years of inspired sharing to the masses or anyone who is curious enough to listen and ponder. God bless everyone. Wishing you all a Happy New Year!

      It's not just the music that's terrible in this video. As someone who's been devoting most of my life to popularizing science, I can honestly say this is a great example on how not to do a documentary. The subject is one of the most interesting that there is, and the scientific content (when presented) is quite good, too... but - stupid useless anecdotes, shots of where offices used to be, and for fuck's sake, suspense on a scientific documentary? This is the opposite of what a person with a desire for learning should get. Just tell me what's the fucking theory/equation that the fucking scientist created already! FFS scientists, it's been too long you've been trying to do the communications part of your job yourselves. Hire some professionals. Yes, you need them. You're terrible at this.

    If it hasn’t been mentioned earlier, Jim got the Quantum Physics conferences right after the end of WWII mixed up just a bit. The 1947 conference was on Shelter Island, NY (Long Island) at the Rams Head Inn and the 1948 conference was at Pocono Manor in the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania. They were followed by the Oldstone Conference in 1949 held at Oldstone-on-the-Hudson in Peekskill, NY. The Oldstone Conference was the one in which Richard Feynman presented his approach to quantum electrodynamics (QED).

      my work is represented by colors and when applying them it shows that Einstein is wrong in some parts like the next, see the video LIGHT AND DARK 1 OF 2 - LIGHT WITH JIM AL.KHALILI enorbet 2
      in this program Jim Says that Einstein sayed that THE LIGHTS BLUE AND VIOLET ARE HAVIER THAN ALL LIGHTS and is not thue see why: when the person starts to pedal the bike the dinamo starts by creating red light(absorbing) so violet is out, then comes orange and blue is gone, in the turn of yellow green is vanished and then comes white so this tells me that WHITE is havier than all is the sea of colors.
      You must to see the video ALTON HARP INTRINSIC RED SHIEFT in it Alton says that the visible universe has 7 STEPS IN WAVE LENGHTH and to me this are the colors of a rainbow so light follows atomic weight and it sais to me that we are not expanding in our universe is just a cosmological mistake of the wave length of light nothing more. Galaxies are atracted one another in ENTANGLEMENT CROSS SECTION FROM NORTH TO SOUTH as well they are JOINTED ONE ANOTHER pluss the push of the CMB that acts as a CENTRIPETAL FORCE helps to keep all matter united so they dont fly away

    The measurement problem is perhaps one of my favorite "problems" in science. It's such a simple and elegant solution to the problem, one that gets dodged all the time because of the ramifications of the solution.
    There is an observer of the whole thing sitting out beyond the universe, collapsing all wave functions as necessary for it to all be real. It's the same observer that made it happen.
    There is no gap. We just inhabit a universe (read 'system') which is subject to Gödel's theorem of incompleteness. Simply - there are things, which are true, that cannot be proven using only data within the system (read 'universe'). We must either go outside the system to get the data needed, or bring the data needed into the system.
    I'll leave it there out of respect. Just like the incompleteness makes things which are true that have no proof within the system, there will also be things which are not true that require no proof because of overwhelming proof to the contrary. That's our own call to make and I'll never make it for you.

      It certainly isn't the best we have. A string of discoveries revealed at a Science & Industry conference at Bath University in July 2019 by a High Tech Electrical Engineering company, has turned Physics on its head. This company set out to examine the Electric Sun model as opposed to the mainstream model that the Sun (& stars) are powered by an internal Thermo Nuclear power source. If the Electric Sun model (where the Sun & stars are powered by electricity from an external force much like a light bulb) could be proven. The company reasoned this may reveal new technologies! Proving the Electric Sun model during 5 years of Multi-Million Dollar tests is correct, has revealed how the atmosphere of the Sun transmutes molecules, and how Stars in reality work. This also revealed a method to "Switch off" Radiation, and in the process broke Newton's Law of Gravity (recorded visibly on film). The Discoveries also destroy Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity, and therefore all the other Theories that hang on it. Including; Black Holes; Dark Matter; Dark Energy; Expanding Universe; Big Bang; and a host of others.
      A huge internal row within Physics is now brewing, as those Physicists who have spent their lives researching Science Fiction rather than Fact are not going to take this lying down. Indeed it could spill into Mass Media like the Prof Velikovsky incident in 1950. Velikovsky was the first proponent of the Electric Universe Theory, and dared to question Newtons Law of Gravity, so was ridiculed as a "Heretic". So this latest group of Discoveries (not Theories) proves yet more of Velikovsky's work to be correct.
      Discovering how to "Switch off" radiation means a new design of "Green" Nuclear Reactor (no Radiation), is, they tell us already on the drawing board. It also means we should be able to clean up all the buried Nuclear waste and has implications for Nuclear weapons. Which will probably upset the Military.
      You cannot discover new Technologies if the Science isn't correct !!!!

    On a number of occasions i have observed full HD 3D worlds come into existence before my very own closed eyes. I believe on a couple of those occasions i was consciously observing the unfolding of the dream world coming out of what appeared to be static like seen on a tv screen that hasn't been tuned. But on another occasion when i closed my eyes i found myself observing, again in HD 3D, the types of equations shown in your documentaries, large and elaborate far beyond my tiny brain. I recall at the time wondering if i was observing the math behind my very existence. it was a one time only event unfortunately.

    Good thought provoking documentary, should be part of the study material for
    scientific/technical careers initial years.
    To know about something is to have a mental representation of it, there is no other
    way, we are "trapped" in our minds, if we do not have a mental representation (or
    image) of something, that something does not exist for us.
    But how do we "know" if that mental image has a good correspondence to something
    outside our mind ??: If that mental image is good to predict things about those
    "external" (to our mind) things, we can say that our mental image is a good
    "representation" of the real thing.
    But we cannot equate our mental representations to reality: our best representations
    are just approximations that are good to predict reality within certain limits
    (realms of reality) and with a limited presition and reliability. Our best
    models of reality surely have structures that "mimic" structures of reality (outside
    our minds), but just with certain limitations (we cannot know all the limitations,
    but we can begin to find some limitations in the measure our knowledge improve).

    The background 'music' for this SUCKS.
    I do background music professionally. The first rule is that it must remain in the BACKGROUND. That's a pretty good reason for calling it 'background music'. As some points in this video e.g. 25:00 the sound efx peak the meters and surpass even the speaker's voice volume.
    This video is wonderful, but it is spoiled in parts because of the 'foreground music'.

      @@lala99ification I think the problem of 'way too loud background music' begins in the recording studio. The producer and engineer 'mix down', i.e., combine the audio elements: announcer, music, and sound efx. Here's the problem: They're sitting in a nice, quiet studio with great speakers (usually, very high quality, expensive "bookshelf" speakers). To their ears, the sound is great and the announcer can easily be heard over the speakers in the quiet, carpeted studio. BUT, when people listen at home on cheap, crappy speakers in their phones or tablets, something happens. What happens is that a "compression" effect happens where the loud and soft parts "smoosh" together (not a technical term lol). The announcer and music get mixed together as if they were both the same volume. (I won't get into the technical reasons for this).
      The bottom line is that what YOU hear on your computer is not what the producer and engineer heard in the recording studio during mixdown. Experienced studio people know that the way to compensate is to make the music much lower than they think sounds good. They KNOW this compression effect happens, so they keep the music fader super soft in the final mix.
      Unfortunately for us listeners, inexperienced studio people must wait until someone like me takes a shot at them in a UA-cam comment lol. THEN, they become 'experienced' and, "voila!"... no more complaints that "you can't hear the vocal clearly".

In all he gave 14 000 readings. He never lied or misrepresented about anything. Simply fascinating to learn what he has to say.

      @TheDuke-vb9cq 4 роки тому

      Hate to upset your concept of Science but Einstein is now Historical bunkum, as of July 2019:
      A string of discoveries revealed at a Science & Industry conference at Bath University in July 2019 by a High Tech Electrical Engineering company, has turned Physics on its head. This company set out to examine the Electric Sun model as opposed to the mainstream model that the Sun (& stars) are powered by an internal Thermo Nuclear power source. If the Electric Sun model (where the Sun & stars are powered by electricity from an external force much like a light bulb) could be proven. The company reasoned this may reveal new technologies!
      Proving the Electric Sun model during 5 years of Multi-Million Dollar tests is correct, has revealed how the atmosphere of the Sun transmutes molecules, and how Stars in reality work. This also revealed a method to "Switch off" Radiation, and in the process broke Newton's Law of Gravity (recorded visibly on film). The Discoveries also destroy Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity, and therefore all the other Theories that hang on it. Including; Black Holes; Dark Matter; Dark Energy; Expanding Universe; Big Bang; and a host of others.
      A huge internal row within Physics is now brewing, as those Physicists who have spent their lives researching Science Fiction rather than Fact are not going to take this lying down. Indeed it could spill into Mass Media like the Prof Velikovsky incident in 1950. Velikovsky was the first proponent of the Electric Universe Theory, and dared to question Newtons Law of Gravity, so was ridiculed as a "Heretic". So this latest group of Discoveries (not Theories) proves yet more of Velikovsky's work to be correct.
      Discovering how to "Switch off" radiation means a new design of "Green" Nuclear Reactor (no Radiation), is they tell us, already on the drawing board. It also means we should be able to clean up all the buried Nuclear waste and has implications for Nuclear weapons. Which will probably upset the Military.

    Other comments to the contrary, I found the documentary interesting, enlightening, and thought-provoking. The music and extraneous video that some people seem to find annoying, or distracting are, I think, commendable efforts to illustrate sonically and graphically concepts that are undefinable. This is, after all, scientific entertainment; without these elements we would be left with a classroom lecture - and a tedious one, at that. The concepts presented, suggested, or hinted at spark curiosity, which, in turn, is a catalyst to thought, thought to theory, theory to experiment, experiment to revelation, revelation to enlightenment, enlightenment to understanding until, of course, a new equation destroys the physical/mathematical certainties upon which it, itself, is based. I would not be surprised, at all to learn that a quark is either the container of another universe or (I can only imagine the fury this proposition will engender) God.
