An animation about why we know essentially nothing about the universe
Filed under: Ideas by Jeremy on Thursday, 16th June 2011 at 8:53 amPhD Comics did this wonderful RSA-like animation of a short discussion about why we know essentially nothing about the universe–like how we have no idea what makes up 75% of the universe.
Dark Matters from PHD Comics on Vimeo.
This was great–too bad the school year is over now or I would have shown this to my sr. classes, I think they would have really enjoyed this one. Another one that really engaged a lot of my students was this ted talks: http://www.ted.com/talks/david_christian_big_history.html I would love to teach a course like this!
