www.ted.com/ At the heart of modern cosmology is a mystery: Why does our universe appear so exquisitely tuned to create the conditions necessary for life? In this tour de force tour of some of science's biggest new discoveries, Brian Greene shows how the mind-boggling idea of a multiverse may hold the answer to the riddle.

    Love his PRECISE AND CORRECT wording: ""our form of life"" , as opposed to just saying "life".

    I admire how Brian Greene is so absorbed in his explanation. It is like an adult telling children's stories to small children. :-)

    I feel so good reading this comment section😭 Some of my friends told me that I'm mad because I am interested in stuff which is not related to my engineering branch

    Brian Greene is indeed one of the greatest scientific speakers. Wheter you like his ideas or not, you have to admit, he's good at presenting them!
  • @stratogustav
    This guy is a great teacher. I actually understood everything he said, even the little details. That is a gift, not many can pull that off with these kind of topics.
  • @Boogieplex
    Brian Greene has so much passion, we as viewers are lucky to have him... His specialty is making it exciting and accessible for regular,ordinary people. I remember watching “ the Elegant Universe “ when i was a kid,and being extremely inspired. Its amazing the stuff he (and others)predicted so long ago, is finally coming into light.

    "sometimes nature guards her secrets through with the unbreakable grip of physical law.Sometimes the true nature of reality beckons from just beyond the horizon"
  • Whoa, I actually never thought about how astronomers in the distant future won’t be able to observe the universe as it is today because of the expansion superseding the speed at which light reaches us. They will see less than we can and they won’t believe a word of our “ancient research”. That’s actually a frightening thought.

    I am both ASTONISHED and SCARED by the capacity of reality.

    Studying physics is like playing marco polo but all your friends get out of the pool and drive to Mexico
  • @Ukepa
    Brian Greene, "the elegant communicator", makes cutting-edge physics understandable even to math dropouts like me.

    Brilliant speaker, just sooo captivating. I watch this video every two weeks or so, I feel so energized after watching it
