    One thing this series catches really well is the optimism and the faith in science that people had at that time.
    In the 60 years that followed, some of the optimism has been lost, and the relationship with science has grown much more complex.
    But a lot of the good remains.

      A fair comment, but science lost a LOT of credibility earlier in the 20th century. "Science" was hailed across the world as it brought eugenics and became a justification for killing handicapped people and other "social parasites" to improve the human gene pool. Science brought extremely violent weapons of war, including poison gas (still used in dictatorships), germ warfare, and the atomic bomb. It's a checkered history, thanks to man's nature.

    • @jefffoster3557
      @jefffoster3557 3 місяці тому

      That "faith" in science was lost because science veered off course from observstion and repeatability into the realm of faith itself. Demonstrated here in pretending to know how life began and brainwashing folks into believing in materialism......or evolution if you will.

      probably because science was going at insane speeds because of WWII, which science helped the Allied powers win. There were a lot of unsavory things happening that would taint science later, like spraying DDT all over the land, and emissions of lead and other nasties into the land, sea, and air. A lot of science has focused on miniturization of computers and related things. Not quite as exciting as nuclear bombs, going into space and to the moon for the first time, etc.. Now it is more about sending large amounts of data around the world, cleaning up CO2, and other, less exciting endeavors, but AI has recently made things more interesting.

    I was a quartermaster on a USCG Cutter in charge of navigation. We set buoys from the Canadian border to Boston. It was vital that the buoys were in their exact geographical locations as noted on sea charts. This was simple to triangulate on readings of known landmarks. But when I was transferred to the Pacific in 1977 we sailed along the 200-mile fisheries limit with no landmarks. So we used a sextant for celestial reckoning. The chronometer was essential in these cases. After some months of practice I learned how to take bearings on the position of the sun at sunrise and sunset, and the position of Venus. This is why the "Bowditch," tables were so essential. Created in the 1700's I believe in England to aid sailors. If you know what time it is you can always know precisely where you are. If you have a radio signal, NOAA broadcasts the time continuously on one frequency.

    Nice film that tries to establish some authority, but when calibrating a clock the issue arises of 'Accuracy vs Consistency'. Calibration is something not addressed in the film. The film actually tries to dodge the issue of 'calibration' by saying anyone can set a clock to any time they want, that it does not matter :D Food for Thought : an Atomic clock provides a very 'consistent' measurement of Time but a Sundial provides the most 'accurate'. Time is independent of measurement, after all :D

    Mention of the big bang theory before it was "officially" declared.
    Fascinating to me that Poe in/around 1840 had written a paper and delivered a lecture on the very same basic idea of the universe originating in a big bang, followed by cosmic expansion and potential ultimate collapse.

    Thanks for showing this old film. I was 11 the first time I saw it. I vividly remember the king asking where to set the clock, and the scientist saying it does not matter as long as all clocks are synchronized. Looking at this film now, I was surprised by the quote from the Old Testament. No scientist would dare quote the Bible now. This was analog days a long way from internet NTP synchronizing everything. A shortwave radio tuned to 5, 10, or 15KHz would give you the time down to a second.

    • @itoibo4208
      @itoibo4208 3 місяці тому +1

      obviously, the bible's wacky stories do not fit with scientific exploration and logical thinking, so less and less educated people would even consider quoting it, but knowing that a lot of people believed in religion, it was a good line to put in for them, and make them feel better about science as a threat to their culture and way of life.

      I don’t think ppl worried much about Planck units.
