Einstein always kind of amazes me as he
mazes at all
but yeah yeah and he was just a clerk in
the Patent Department yeah nobody do you
know but he’s gonna look at this and
there’s a railroad station and he spent
a lot of time doing mind mind games what
are they thought experiments yeah you’re
good Duncan explain is moving through
and somebody drops a ball and it bounces
how fast do you know and how it relates
to the world outside of the ER the plat
of the genesis of relativity and there
was a famous clock tower over the
railroad station so there was time
travel all that kind of stuff going on
so he loved himself some Einstein yeah
my favorite Einstein quote is if a
theory cannot be explained to a child
then the theory is probably useless
meaning that all great theories are
based on pictures that even children can
understand the idea and and so so in
1905 yet special Theory relativity which
involved the trains and the clocks and
the timings and then 10 years later 11
years later the general theory of
relativity so meet your relativity is a
modern idea of how the world works and
it doesn’t seem to emanate from any ones
sort of chair because it’s not part of
anybody’s common sense
that’s why common sense says that time
is like an arrow you fire it never comes
back one second on the earth is like one
second on the moon Einstein says no time
is like a river a river that meanders
and speeds up and slows down and the new
wrinkle on this that I work on is the
fact that the rivet of time can have
whirlpools and fork into two rivers and
that of course is back to the future
whirlpools in the river of time man that
sounds like a really cool soap opera
that out
and now in the next episode of
whirlpools with a river of top
mazes at all
