One of the wonders of science is that it is completely universal. It crosses national boundaries with total ease Picture Quote #1

Over the centuries, monumental upheavals in science have emerged time and again from following the leads set out by mathematics Picture Quote #1

The fact that I don’t have any particular need for religion doesn’t mean that I have a need to cast religion aside the way some of my colleagues do Picture Quote #1

Before the discovery of quantum mechanics, the framework of physics was this: If you tell me how things are now, I can then use the laws of physics to calculate, and hence predict, how things will be later Picture Quote #1

For most people, the major hurdle in grasping modern insights into the nature of the universe is that these developments are usually phrased using mathematics Picture Quote #1

I love it when real science finds a home in a fictional setting, where you take some real core idea of science and weave it through a fictional narrative in order to bring it to life, the way stories can. That’s my favorite thing Picture Quote #1
