Physicist Dr. Brian Greene brings cutting-edge physics to the masses in this mind-expanding discussion. Can time travel actually exist within the laws of physics? Greene, professor at Columbia University and acclaimed author, explores Einstein's revolutionary discoveries and their modern implications for understanding reality. The conversation covers string theory breakthroughs, the nature of time itself, and how recent physics discoveries are reshaping our understanding of the universe. Greene explains complex concepts in accessible terms, revealing how quantum mechanics and relativity theory intersect to create possibilities once relegated to science fiction. The discussion examines parallel universes, dimensional theory, and the fundamental forces that govern existence. From the smallest subatomic particles to the largest cosmic structures, Greene illuminates how modern physics reveals a universe far stranger than common sense suggests. This exploration of 2005 being the International Year of Physics celebrates Einstein's centennial contributions while looking toward future discoveries that may revolutionize human understanding of space, time, and reality itself.

Art Bell welcomes physicist Brian Greene , a Harvard-educated, Oxford-trained Rhodes Scholar and Columbia University professor, for a wide-ranging conversation about the frontiers of modern physics. Greene explains Einstein's 1905 discoveries, including special relativity and E=MC squared, and discusses why the quest for a unified theory of everything remains the holy grail of theoretical physics. The discussion moves into the strange world of quantum mechanics, where the rules governing subatomic particles differ fundamentally from everyday experience. Greene describes how electrons behave probabilistically rather than predictably, and how quantum entanglement allows separated particles to correlate their behavior instantaneously across vast distances, challenging our deepest assumptions about the nature of reality. Art and Greene explore time travel, with Greene confirming that travel to the future is fully permitted by Einstein's equations, while travel to the past remains an open question. They also discuss the potential of quantum computers to perform calculations exponentially faster than current machines, possibly even giving rise to artificial intelligence that surpasses human cognition.

Art Bell returns after two weeks spent constructing a massive ham radio antenna in the Nevada desert and opens with wide-ranging commentary on current events, including the Haitian political crisis, a Pentagon climate change report warning of catastrophic weather shifts, and a near-miss asteroid that gave astronomers a nine-hour scare. He also addresses the gay marriage debate at length, sharing his evolving view that no demonstrable harm results from allowing same-sex unions. The featured guest is Columbia University physicist and mathematician Brian Greene , author of The Fabric of the Cosmos. Greene explains how Einstein overturned Newton's concept of absolute time, demonstrating that relative motion and gravitational fields cause time to elapse at different rates. He describes how a traveler moving near the speed of light could age one year while thousands of years pass on Earth, a phenomenon confirmed by particle accelerator experiments. Greene discusses the theoretical possibility of wormholes as tunnels through both space and time, though he expresses skepticism about their practical viability due to energy feedback problems. He addresses string theory, the search for a unified equation describing all fundamental forces, and the idea of parallel universes arising from both quantum mechanics and inflationary cosmology. Greene also shares his view that consciousness is purely physical computation, while acknowledging that science cannot disprove the existence of a divine creator.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with physicist and author, Dr. Brian Greene. They discuss the strange conceptualization of “before” the Big Bang, how time might be a microscopic phenomenon, how order existed at the point of the universe's creation, what would happen if you fell into a black hole, and the process of going from understanding to harnessing new insights. Dr. Brian Greene is an American physicist known for his research on string theory. He is a professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University and the chairman of the World Science Festival, which he co-founded in 2008. Dr. Greene has worked on mirror symmetry, relating two different Calabi–Yau manifolds (concretely relating the conifold to one of its orbifolds). He also described the flop transition, a mild form of topology change, showing that topology in string theory can change at the conifold point.

Brian Greene discusses cutting-edge theories in cosmology, including string theory and the nature of space-time, as well as the potential dangers of electromagnetic pulse (EMP) weapons. Later, Peter Davenport provides updates on recent UFO sightings, analyzing witness reports and trends in unidentified aerial phenomena.

Brian Greene discusses theoretical physics and cosmology including string theory and the nature of space-time while Peter Davenport examines recent UFO sightings and electromagnetic pulse weapons. Greene explains how string theory attempts to reconcile quantum mechanics and general relativity through models proposing additional dimensions beyond the four we directly experience. His accessible presentation of complex physics reveals how reality might be fundamentally different from everyday perception, with hidden dimensions and vibrating strings underlying matter and energy. The conversation covers implications of advanced physics for understanding consciousness and phenomena that appear paranormal but might reflect natural laws we don't yet comprehend. Davenport shifts discussion to recent UFO reports and particularly cases involving electromagnetic effects that suggest advanced propulsion systems. He examines electromagnetic pulse weapons and how such technology might relate to UFO capabilities or represent human attempts to replicate alien technology. The discussion explores connections between advanced physics and UFO phenomena, examining how understanding space-time manipulation might explain observed UFO capabilities from instant acceleration to apparent materializations. Both speakers address how theoretical physics and UFO research might converge as we develop technologies that current physics considers impossible. Their combined presentation demonstrates how frontiers of science and unexplained phenomena might both point toward revolutionary understanding of reality's fundamental nature.

Art Bell welcomes Columbia University physicist Dr. Brian Greene for a conversation spanning the Big Bang, string theory, nuclear weapons, and the possibility of extraterrestrial contact. Greene explains how everything in the universe, including space and time themselves, emerged from a point smaller than a quark, and describes how string theory has revealed that tears in the fabric of space are theoretically possible, potentially allowing for wormholes and interstellar travel. He pushes back against physicist Lawrence Krauss's definitive claim that aliens have not and will not visit Earth. The discussion turns to the physics of destruction as Art asks Greene about reported electromagnetic pulse weapons used in the Kosovo conflict. Greene confirms awareness of non-nuclear EMP device research but cannot detail the mechanisms behind them. He also reflects on the legacy of Oppenheimer, arguing that scientists must remain vigilant about the applications of their discoveries rather than simply delivering products to policymakers. Greene expresses optimism that humanity will ultimately survive its discovery of nuclear power. Art and Greene debate the likelihood of advanced civilizations existing elsewhere in the universe, with Greene acknowledging that life could take forms radically different from anything on Earth. The conversation touches on unified field theory and the energy contained within the strings that permeate even the vacuum of space.

Brian Greene is one of the world’s leading theoretical physicists, widely recognized for his groundbreaking discoveries in the field of superstring theory. His ability to clearly communicate cutting-edge science - even bringing humor to abstruse mathematical concepts -- has made Greene a sort of rock star physicist. On February 25, 2020, Brian Greene came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to talk to Gina Pell about his newest book “Until The End of Time: Mind, Matter and Our Search for Meaning in an Evolving Universe”.

Podcast : New Scientist CultureLab (LS 32 · TOP 5% what is this? ) Episode : #2: Brian Greene on why there is no meaning to life, and how incredible it is that we exist at all Pub date : 2021-05-11 Get Podcast Transcript → powered by Listen411 - fast audio-to-text and summarization Brian Greene is an American theoretical physicist, mathematician and string theorist. Despite tackling some of the most ‘out there’ questions in science, Brian is able to break down his work into relatable information. A multiple bestselling author, his latest book is ‘Until The End of Time: Mind, Matter and our Search for Meaning in an Evolving Universe’. In this engaging conversation, Brian explains his belief that there is no definitive meaning to life, and suggests that people should focus on how incredible it is that we exist at all. Despite acknowledging that many of the questions he raises in his career will probably remain unanswered for centuries, Brian says the hope of gleaning some insight into the universe’s big unknowns is what keeps him going. He digs into every area of existence imaginable, from questions of life, religion, the flow of time and the origin of the universe. This conversation will make you question everything you know about yourself – Do you have free will? Are you truly conscious? – and yet you’ll still come away feeling empowered.

If we didn’t have vast civilizational challenges upon us, we might be living in a constant state of wonder at what science in this century is learning and showing us about the cosmos and about ourselves — the new questions it’s giving us to live. We are the generation of our species to map the genome, to detect black holes colliding, to hear gravitational waves. The physicist Brian Greene is one of our greatest interpreters from the human enterprise that is science. And in his most recent thinking and writing, there’s a stunning evolution in his own approach to science and life and the matters of purpose and meaning. We delve into his exuberant, cosmic lens on living in the here and the now. Brian Greene is a professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University, where he is also the director of Columbia’s Center for Theoretical Physics. He is the co-founder and chairman of the World Science Festival. His books include The Elegant Universe , The Hidden Reality , The Fabric of the Cosmos , and most recently, Until The End Of Time: Mind, Matter, and Our Search for Meaning in an Evolving Universe .

Brian Greene is a theoretical physicist, mathematician and writer, whose area of research is string theory. His books and broadcasts distil the complexities of science for a general audience, leading one critic to say appreciatively “he speaks maths, physics and human.” Born in New York City, his father taught him the basics of arithmetic when he was a toddler and by the time he was five Brian was multiplying 30-digit numbers by 30-digit numbers - just for the pure joy of working things out by himself. At 11 Brian had exhausted everything his maths teacher could teach him but, thanks to his teacher’s resourcefulness, he managed to get extra tuition from a graduate student at Columbia University. After graduating from Harvard in 1984, Brian won a Rhodes scholarship to Oxford University to study gravity and quantum mechanics. At Oxford he became captivated by the idea of string theory which was causing much excitement among the physics community at the time. String theory was seen as having the potential to answer life’s big questions about space, time and the universe. Over the years Brian has been at the forefront of scientific discoveries including mirror symmetry and later proving that tears could happen in the fabric of space. Brian is currently professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University. DISC ONE: An extract from Icarus At the Edge of Time.

Brian Greene is a Professor of Mathematics and Physics at Columbia University in the City of New York, where he is the Director of the Institute for Strings, Cosmology, and Astroparticle Physics, and co-founder and chair of the World Science Festival . He is well known for his TV mini-series about string theory and the nature of reality, including the Elegant Universe, which tied in with his best-selling 2000 book of the same name. In this episode, we talk about his latest popular book Until the End of Time: Mind, Matter, and Our Search for Meaning in an Evolving Universe (Random House, 2020) Until the End of Time gives the reader a theory of everything, both in the sense of a “state of the academic union”, covering cosmology and evolution, consciousness and computation, and art and religion, and in the sense of showing us a way to apprehend the often existentially challenging subject matter. Greene uses evocative autobiographical vignettes in the book to personalize his famously lucid and accessible explanations, and we discuss these episodes further in the interview. Greene also reiterates his arguments for embedding a form of spiritual reverie within the multiple naturalistic descriptions of reality that different areas of human knowledge have so far produced.
