  • Why, why, why ska music at the beginning? Is this a pot party? Why?

  • Kip Thorne's theories (and succesful experiments) are the basis for one of the most ambitious Steven Spielberg film projects EVER. I'm taking about INTERSTELLAR. It seems tha the movie will focus on recent scientific evidence that allows a human tripullated spacecraft travel acrosss localy controlled worm wholes. I'm not kidding. It's not science-fiction. It's... scientific speculation. Research this guy. Seriously.

  • Before we learn universe, quantum that thing we should first learn how to not become mad.

  • Great interview! I haven't been keeping track of him recently...looks like his work is paying off dividends!

  • @pepicanable

    Interstellar. It may not be made though.

  • @Pravindaswani74

    which movie is it you are referring about?

  • Perhaps simplifying it all by saying it's composed of "a spherical, wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey...stuff" be appropriate?

  • I want Thorne to tell me if Einstein used Maxwell's "original" equations or Heavyside's streamlined version? If the latter, how does Einstein avoid getting a streamlined, if not an oversimplified, view of the universe? Instead of building on this edifice as Thorne has done, why not go back to see if it's even necessary to have this streamlining? Has Thorne used the original quaternion equations with computers to determine whether a fluid concept like the aether is actually true?

  • Annalie is a very lucky young lady and a great interviewer. And i HAVE to visit Sydney. It looks like an amazing place

  • AWEEEEVO YA APRENDI A PONER SUBTITULOS,,,,ESTOY BIEN CABRON...
