Physics Minded? The Elegant Universe

[Prof]

This web site is wonderfully instructive if you have any interest in physics. It addresses all of those things that we read about but rarely understand in a way that is remarkably simple...now the entire series will require three hours of time...but it will be three hours of super mind expanding viewing.

Or if your kids are getting on your nerves it might serve as a way to give them an understanding that many of us never had.

Thanks prof...my son starts college this coming Aug and he is majoring in physics...He will love this..

 

[Prof]

If he is majoring in physics he will probably scoff at the video's..he is probably well past the material they present...but for us non-science types, its pretty Kewl!

He doesnt start college till this coming Aug..he has taken HS physics....He went to Kitts Peak in AZ this past winter with 2 others from his school...they were 3 of 7 HS students chosen in the US to use a telescope for research...they are writing a paper to be published in a national science mag on changes that occur when galaxies collide using photos they made with the telescope at Kitts Peak..

Your son's education will be an exciting journey...enjoy it! He certainly will.

Congratulations, your efforts to get him to his point will be rewarded in many ways in the years to come.
