James Webb Space Telescope prompts scientists to rethink understanding of the universe
>> Today marks one year since the world first started seeing spectaculr images of the cosmos that were captured by the powerful James Webb telescope. But as science correspondent miles o’brien tells us, getting...
2022 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to 3 scientists for their experiments with entangled photons
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics to Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of...
The Man Who Corrected Einstein
In the late 19-teens, Albert Einstein had a new hammer, and he was in search of nails to hit. He had just developed a new and more powerful mathematical description of gravity , and...
Wormhole Theory Explained – Breaking Spacetime!
Do wormholes really exist like we think they do? And what are they really like if so? Join me as we explore the Wormhole Theory! So if you’ve watched any kind of sci-fi show...
How Scientists Created A Wormhole In A Lab
Wormholes were theorized in 1935 by my buddy Al Einstein and his pal Nathan Rosen as part of the theory of general relativity. They were called Einstein-Rosen “bridges,” and are thought of as holes...
What If a Wormhole Formed in Our Solar System?
This is ‘What If,’ and here’s what would happen if a wormhole formed in our Solar System. You’ve probably heard of wormholes through Thor, Interstellar, Star Trek, or if you’re really old school, Albert...
Artificial Gravity
Gravity. It’s what keeps us held to the surface of the Earth and provides a sense of up and down. When we venture into space and orbit the Earth, or some other world, the...
Will Wormholes Allow Fast Interstellar Travel?
From Stargate to Interstellar, wormholes have long been one of our favorite method for traveling across fictional universes. But they’ve also been a very serious field of study for some of the greatest minds...
The Artificial Gravity Lab
– Last video, I was at the Ashton Graybiel Spatial Orientation Lab at Brandeis University, and while I was there one of the team just casually mentioned that they have an artificial gravity laboratory....
Wormholes Explained – Breaking Spacetime
If you saw a wormhole in reality, it would appear round, spherical, a bit like a black hole. Light from the other side passes through and gives you a window to a faraway place....
Orbital Dynamics Part 01 First Discoveries
Welcome to orbital dynamics. This is a multi-part course on the basics of orbital dynamics. The orbital dynamicsor orbital mechanics textbooks assumefamiliarity with calculus and all thealgebra and trig that goes along with that....
Solar System Dynamics: Orbits and Kepler’s Laws
The planets orbit the Sun in a counterclockwisedirection as viewed from above the Sun’s northpole, and the planets’ orbits all are alignedto what astronomers call the ecliptic plane. The story of our greater understanding...
Orbital Mechanics in 60 Seconds – I
So, contrary to what you see in moviesspacecraft can’t just sit around inspace near a planet because they’d fallright into it. To stay in space we needto get into orbit. So first we take...
Crazy Engineering: Astrodynamics

Why Black Holes Could Delete The Universe – The Information Paradox
Black holes are the most powerful things in the universe, strong enough to rip whole stars into atom sized piecesWell, this is scary enough. They have an even more powerful and dark property: they...
Black Holes Explained – From Birth to Death
Black holes are one of the strangest things in existence. They don’t seem to make any sense at all. Where do they come from. . . . . . and what happens if you...
