    Isaac Asimov once said "The greatest phrase in science is not Eureka (I've found it) but rather "Hmm, that's strange" Part of science is providing answers to problems. The other part of science is discovering the next problem that requires solution.

    This is probably the most interesting science video that I've ever watched. It explains how science and discovery actually works and how long it takes. Most people I run into get confused as to why science keeps changing its mind when in reality they don't realize there's a process. School never showed me this and I had to think by myself and make my own discovery but I could never explain how it works but I knew. Thank you for this video.

  • @jonathanclark5240

    What I love about this is how recent these discoveries are. I remember being in grade school in the late 1980s and our teacher talking about a possible 10th planet--that was our edge of discovery back then! How far we've come now with the discovery of dwarf planets, demoting Pluto, etc.

    Richard Feynman said that if you want to make Scientific discoveries you can't use existing tools and techniques because they've all been tried before. This explains why scientific equipment becomes ever more expensive, and the importance of serendipity, cross-field research, thinking outside the box and the 3 B's (the bed, the bath and the bus).

Einstein's greatest moment of joy in his life was when he calculated its orbit with his freshly developed and not yet published theory of general relativity and had a perfect match.

    • @thej3799
      @thej3799 Год назад

      And I love the way he described it because he talked about Einstein expanding on Newton's theory so he gave such respect to Newton's physical model by saying Einstein expanded on this understanding. It was such an eloquent way you know to put the advancement of our understanding. The way he said it here I thought was both a good way to imagine how we build on knowledge, and how new knowledge doesn't take away from what was accomplished. We keep on growing. 💗 Beautiful.

    2. The history of scientific discovery. Being able to make dramatic shifts in your perspective on reality like discovering new planets, the age of the Earth being many times older than we thought, the universe being way bigger than we thought, learning time travel is literally possible etc

    Science is perceived as hard due to its reliance on empirical evidence, the formulation of testable hypotheses, and the need for meticulous attention to detail. The complexity of scientific theories often demands a deep understanding of various disciplines and the ability to synthesize information from multiple sources. What role do curiosity and creativity play in overcoming these challenges, and how can we cultivate these traits in future scientists?

      2.Maybe another thing that we have no idea is coming
