CA: Jim, a couple of years ago, I got the chance to speak with Elon Musk, and I asked him the secret of his success, and he said taking physics seriously was it.
Each bubble universe —ours being one of them —would be described by its own Big Bang and laws of physics.

Don't get caught up in electronic music if you're doing physics."
One of the things that I've done for my science students is to tell them, "Look, I'm going to teach you college-level physics.
We're going to be doing genuine physics."
This is simple physics.
It was 1971, the Vietnam War was going on, and I'm like, "Oh my God!" I'm studying physics: Landau, Lipschitz, Resnick and Halliday.
However, recent theories in physics, including one called string theory, are now telling us there could be countless other universes, built on different types of particles, with different properties, obeying different laws.
Well, I guess we know one other thing: This is a pretty cool time to be studying physics.
To use the physics jargon, you've measured the period of the waves that cork is bobbing on.
This result, that light sometimes behaves like a particle and sometimes behaves like a wave, led to a revolutionary new physics theory called quantum mechanics.

I had no idea that at that time, according to Dr. Jamie Alexander's archive of African-American women in physics, only 18 black women in the United States had ever earned a PhD in a physics-related discipline, and that the first black woman to graduate with a PhD in an astronomy-related field did so just one year before my birth.

Let's start with the most famous physics formula ever: E equals m c squared.
In physics, we talk about two types of motion.
And then I tell the computer where the air goes in and out of the cabin, throw in a bunch of physics and basically sit there and wait until the computer calculates the simulation.

Without society or the laws of physics, flying would be a totally awesome ability to have.
As if that weren't enough, pi is used in particle physics experiments, such as those using the Large Hadron Collider, not only due to its round shape, but more subtly, because of the orbits in which tiny particles move.
A hundred years on, we now find ourselves at another turning point in physics, but what's at stake now is rather different.
The next few years may tell us whether we'll be able to continue to increase our understanding of nature, or whether maybe for the first time in the history of science, we could be facing questions that we cannot answer, not because we don't have the brains or technology, but because the laws of physics themselves forbid it.
