Rating: 2.9/5 (10 votes cast)

An international group of scientists made a surprising finding in September 2011 that particles can travel faster than the speed of light.

This contradicts the concept- nothing can travel beyond the speed of light, which we believed more than a century. So, what will happen to Einstein’s famous theory of relativity? Will it be still valid?.

By this discovery, would it be possible for us to travel to past or even to another universe one day? Professor Marcus du Sautoy explores one of the most brilliant announcements through this film.

He tells us, the story of the science we thought we are aware, how it is being challenged and what is the importance of this discovery.

  1. @netgear123456 so now youre saying that god may have had something to do with the universe, but not a fundamental feature of the universe which is change.. hmm, what the hell kind of logic are you using.. anyway, let me give it to you straight, i wouldnt have a problem with you not believing in something like god, or making assumptions based on logic and reason.. what i have a problem with, is when people like you make assumptions and declare them as facts.. they arent facts

  2. My comment stated I know “god” had nothing to do with evolution not the universe.I cant 100% prove “god” doesn’t exist the same way I cant 100% prove Santa clause doesn’t exist but I can gather more than enough evidence and information that all lean towards Santa or “god” not existing which is what science has done.You believe in evolution? and I gather you believe in god in some way or the other yet you are so stupid you don’t even see the utter contradiction in believing in both.

  3. @netgear123456 websters dictionary- religious: scrupulously and conscientiously faithful.. i never said anything regarding evolution, my comment was refering to your absurd statement that got all the thumbs up.. you cant possibly know such things.. as for evolution, of course things evolve.. evolution simply means change.. youve evolved slightly since your last stupid comment

  4. @longfootbuddy Religious means a belief in a religion of some kind im not sure what were your going with this. Also ” all these claims these people make.. none of them are proven, and anyone with a decent mind should know that”… why is it so hard for you to understand that evolution is a fact? why do people like you constantly deny FACT? if your saying evolution is just an idea of what happened you OBVIOUSLY have done ZERO research on the subject

  5. @netgear123456 you religiously believe all these claims these people make.. none of them are proven, and anyone with a decent mind should know that.. if you had a basic understanding of what science is, you wouldnt make such ridiculous claims of knowing such things that clearly you cant possibly know

    @SilkEclipse I’m on the side that science does not prove or disprove spiritual matter.I don’t really believe in Christian God or any religion’s god for that matter, but I still think it is very probable that spiritual realm exists, as there is no way to disprove it.

  7. kkksskkk says:

    @SilkEclipse I know light speed is unchanging, but do you know why the value of light speed is 3*10^8m/s? And particles don’t exist out of nothing, they get converted to or from energy. And particles acting in a concrete definitive way that does not disprove spiritual realm. It may disprove christian god. You are not even proving anything counter to my first statement, you misread me. If you keep asking “why?” over and over again, there is a limit to what science can answer.

  8. SilkEclipse says:

    @DevilsBloodySausage Yeah confuses me everytime, I’m reserving judgment right now, I don’t know where to go or which road to take, because I came from a family of Native Beliefs and Medicine, Spirituality and also later on to become a Apostolic, lets just say I got the full experience of it all… and I can view Religion, Evolution, Native Beliefs… And at the same time I can back it up with a Fact or a Story… :/ Life is confusing and messy…

  9. SilkEclipse says:

    @kkksskkk I wasn’t saying you believed in God, if you look at my comment I stating everything you just said, Light speed is unchanging no matter how fast your moving away from it, and if you look at my comment a little more I do say we KNOW what’s beyond the sub-atomic level, particles exist out of nothing then annihilate each other at that level, this is where we get proof that something can exist just out of nothing…

  10. @SilkEclipse you are right :) religion is not a fact. and science SHOULD be based on facts. and it is. to a point. i don’t believe in creationism, but i also don’t believe the evolutionist story. anyone who knows something about animal behaviour, and life complexity, simply cannor believe this theory. evolutionism is speculation. based on fact, true, but also on speculations and fantasy. mostly fantasy. we never found half-evolved species. no link fossils. only 100% perfect species.

  11. kkksskkk says:

    @SilkEclipse Also, it’s not that religious faith does not need evidence, the act of disproving, or trying to prove it with evidence itself would be foolish, as spiritual existence and human world’s mechanisms likely operate on different levels, if spiritual existence is really existence.

  12. kkksskkk says:

    @SilkEclipse You don’t know what you are talking about.We know what’s beyond atoms is, but we don’t know why they are what they are and what’s beyond quanta.We know much of light, but we don’t know why the light speed has the value that it does.We know gravity is caused by mass and have formulas for its mechanics, but we don’t know why and how mass causes gravity.To some level, even science is based on faith and belief. And I never said I believed in God.

  13. SilkEclipse says:

    @kkksskkk Religion is supported by faith and your ability to believe and I’m pretty sure that makes God happy, because you don’t need evidence, it’s because you have trust and believe…But from a scientific view their are no facts to support such matter, and yes we do know what’s beyond atom’s, down to the sub-atomic level…and we do know light is very complex and that it actually bends space, therefor light’s speed is unchanging..and we already know what gravity is and what it does to space..

  14. Ignorance of subjects such as abiogenisis, genetics, biochemistry, evolution, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, general reativity etc etc etc … is NOT evidence for god !!IGNORANCE of something is NOT evidence for the opposite !!

  15. @kkksskkk haha how am i shoving it down your throats? I made a statement i didnt force anything. Your very defensive its quite pathetic. And I would estimate that 99% of modern scientists would agree with my statement and laugh quite loudly at yours.

  16. @AetheismRules lol whatever mate :) no real scientist believes this nonsense. but i won’t discuss religion :D science is skeptical. when you begin to accept something as a fact even when there a lot of counter facts, that is religion mate. and that is evolution right now. nothing more. it is a theory. and people treat it as a fact.i won’t discuss anymore on this theme, because like religion fanatics, evolutionists are the same. i always hear the same reason: “it is a fact” yeah, prove me. duuh.

    Actually, the greatgulfdude has a point.The actual point here is that answers to these questions dig very deep into theory of so called complex systems, biophysics and chemistry. Especially the disciplines deeper in the field of physics are tough stuff and hardly understood yet, being among the most recent fields of research in all of science.However there are institutes that bring about amazing insights in self-organization processes via means of information theory and complex systems.

    The Voice Of Nature,The best broadcaster,environmental activist,naturalist and Narrator who ever liver than ever all over the world,really Extraordinary and with manifold and distnguished knowledge……………………!

  19. @cyandk this kind of science is also a religion, but i won’t get into this. if they were facts that can be proved, noone would question it. just like christianism, or other religion. evolutionism is a religion just like the others.i personally don’t believe either of the theories. humanity does not yet know the real process.anyway, enjoy this show, it is really cool, regardless of what you believe or not believe.

  20. A God-less void of non-conscious, immaterial, non-rational, non-feeling, lawless, amoral nothingness through unguided purely natural, non-intelligent processes produces a conscious, sentient, moral, intelligent, rational human being who believes in God.Go figure.
