Video: "We must forget everything we know." Me: "Alright" Vid: "In front of us us a sheet of paper." Me: "What the hell is paper?"
This channel is going to be the 3 Blue 1 Brown of physics.
Many can understand. But only a rare few can pass on that understanding to others. This guy is a true teacher.
general relativity is a topic that never ceases to amaze me; guess I just fell in love with your animations; I can't wait to see the part about tensors, geodesics, co-vectors, christoffel's symbols and curvature, all concepts I've been strugling to grasp
I always wanted a series on this in detail, this and math in quantum mechanics...PLZZ consider maths for quantum mechanics for your next series
I'm taken back by the amount of effort you have put into this. It's truly astonishing and I can't thank you enough. Youtube is the greatest thing that ever happened to education.
Let's appreciate how important the contribution of an apple in physics. Great channel, btw, I have watched these from the first video up to this point in last 2 days.
You deserve all the love you're getting.
Note for the viewer: the videos use two kinds of "time". There is the physical time in-universe, which general relativity actually uses, and there is "meta-time", which doesn't actually exist in general relativity, but is basically forced upon any teacher of general relativity, because it's just so difficult to think directly about general relativity. Imagine yourself as a giant, standing outside of the universe, and the universe is a 2-d sheet of rubber. Objects are NOT dots, but lines, drawn on this sheet of paper. "No object is stationary" merely means that objects are world-lines, not dots. You, the giant, has your own "meta-time", different from the time of this rubber sheet universe. You are a higher being, basically. The "time" in this rubber sheet universe is merely a spatial direction for you. In your meta-time view, the rubber sheet universe is eternal and unchanging. To see an object in this universe to "move", you simply take a ruler, and move it across the rubber sheet, and watch how the object's worldline intersects with the ruler, how the intersection shifts around your ruler.
Hello I am a bachelor and this was the first time I formally study general relativity. I can say that your work helped me a lot! It was brilliant! I believe this is the best material on the internet to explore the concepts behind this subject.
These videos are breaking new grounds. Everyone interested like in GR must be very excited and grateful. Thank you very much!
His editing skills are improving video by video giving me goosebumps
Such an elegant, intuitive way of looking at relativity.
I watch a lot of science channels and informative videos, but yours is different in a really good way. It’s more engaging, animations are clean and to the point, nice voice, and the music makes it feel intense. Great job, sir
The best explanation for my non physics mind I've come across, so far. Keep it up!
It's amazing seeing more and more science education channels going into the really interesting details of the physics.
I'm on my second year of physics, and I just had my mind blown by a realisation at the end ( the sidenote). Somehow, this observation has eluded me, as I couldn't have properly visualised the constant movement of stationary objects that move through spacetime at all times, because they are moving through the future. These might seem silly to someone reading this, but I'm actually gobsmacked, as I've spent a significant time studying this issue, and only now, upon seeing this YouTube video, have visually comprehended it in a way I couldn't have before.
Love the start of this series. Hope this series successfully achieves the goal of simplifying GR math for everyone with basic (no more than high school) math skills.
I like this channel. The guy explains difficult topics in a straightforward manner.
