episode 6: Theory of everything: do we really need one?
Our two best theories of nature, quantum mechanics and general relativity, are incompatible with each other in many ways – leaving physicists to dig deeper.
episode 5: Will we ever have a fundamental theory of life and consciousness?
The physics of the living world is an enigma
episode 4: Quantum mechanics: does objective reality exist?
Some physicists don't believe that quantum mechanics is a perfect description of objective reality. But not everyone is worried.
episode 3: Is there a multiverse?
The idea that there could be other parts of the cosmos with different physical laws, processes and histories is hard to ignore
episode 2: Fundamental constants: is the universe fine tuned for life to exist?
We are pretty lucky to have a gravity on Earth that is just right for life.
episode 1: Is time an illusion?
Time may be moving backwards as well as forwards, or all at once – even if it doesn’t seem like it is.
