Join Brian Greene, acclaimed physicist and author, on a wild ride into the mind of Albert Einstein, revealing deep aspects of the world that defy everyday experience. Using a visually rich canvas of animations, Greene leads you through all the startling conclusions of special relativity, from time travel to space warps to E = mc2. In the span of 2+ hours, this short master class will change your conception of reality.

This is a mostly non-mathematical version of the WSU Master Class “Special Relativity with Brian Greene.”    • WSU: Special Relativity with Brian Gr...

    thanks for the 2.5 hours no ads non stop science... :-)
  • @grovermatic
    What an absolute joy that we can summon at will and enjoy lectures from not just Brian Greene, but almost all of the masters of science from the comfort of home. Just a few decades ago people would have clamored to attend a lecture like this.
  • You are one of the greatest educators of ANY generation. We can't thank you enough for your open minded yet skeptical and curious view of nature and your passion to share it with everyone for free. Carl Sagan would be proud.
  • @variable7833
    One of the best episodes of JRE was with brian greene. He rules.
  • I love you Brian Greene, you are a gift to the world. May your Name be written in the Book of Life 🦁🔯👑!!!
  • @lemmelovu
    What a teacher Green is. Answers just about every common person questions that rises. He explains, then clears arising doubts and Repeat ! To call him genius is just a plain understatement.
  • @brianlin7108
    He had an excellent way to present physics to common folks
  • Dr. Greene Absolutely amazing course. Connection between time, space, mass, energy and speed of light is very clear. Many thanks. Vijay

    Mr. Green introduces and explains the basics of special relativity. Over the duration of this recording,. Mr. Green maintains great energy and enthusiasm for the whole damn lecture . He has a particular way of gesturing and motioning with his hands that, to me at least, conveys a good deal of passion and intuition regarding the topics he is holding forth on. On top of his ability to lecture, his examples are plentiful and really Mr. Green, I'm getting brief glimpses of a young Judd Hirsch peppered throughout.
  • @SidharthMiddela
    One of the best explanations on this topic. Simply Brilliant. Brilliantly Simple.
  • Amazing Dr. Greene. You have explained the mind boggling concepts in such simple terms. Kudos! I just realized that over 2 hrs had gone by. Time had slowed down for me... relativity!!!
  • Dr. Greene has an amazing ability. He can take a complex subject, and make it understandable. Thank you for creating this awesome video. I'd recommend it to anyone.
  • @tacocruiser4238
    ive tried to listen to this video 10 times and I havent got past the first 30 minutes without falling asleep lol. I'm really pissed because it seems very interesting.
  • Beautiful presentation which demonstrates why people will always see things differently relative to where they are and what they are doing at any prospective point in time relative to someone else. Professor Greene, you are brilliant. I love your lectures 🥰
  • This should be shown in every intro physics class in high school and college. He explains things that are so hard to wrap you head around with great visuals.
  • The Revolution in teaching system is started !!! 🙂I am very thankful for it because it is open for everyone all over the world who have a burning desire to understand the UNIVERSE 🙏 like me!
  • @skyhidave
    I finally get it! I'm 69 and after years of reading and watching, I finally understand (well sort of). In college I always ranked a great teacher above a genius in their respective field. Here you get both. Exhilarating.
  • @summersu9274
    I don't have words to express myself of how Dr. Greene is a talented teacher.
  • @Erik-rp1hi
    What incredible insight Einstein had. His peers of that time must had been blown away by his ideas how the world works, after they accepted them.
