“The first principle is that you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool.” Richard Feynman

Lack of effective regulation means the risk of nuclear war is greater than at any time since the end of the Cold War. Other potentially existential military threats remain similarly uncontrolled.

Renowned physicist Stephen Hawking, known for his groundbreaking research on black holes, continues to be a source of inspiration even after his passing in 2018. However, a recent comment made by a fellow scientist has sparked controversy and raised questions about the boundaries of scientific inquiry. During a conference, a prominent physicist made a surprising claim that Hawking, despite his brilliant mind, never engaged in orgies. This statement has drawn criticism from attendees who…

Richard Feynman - Nobel Prize Winner (Physics), theoretical Physicist, and inventor of the Feynman Diagrams. He was known as the Great Explainer, because of his need to make accessible, and publicise physics. He was also a musician and raconteur

Few theoretical physicists have managed to transcend the scientific community and enter the popular consciousness as Richard Feynman. With his book Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman!, his brilliant, inspiring, lighthearted and fun-loving personality reached millions. As accessible as Feynman was"u2026

Richard Feynman, physicist. . . "American theoretical physicist known for his work in the path integral formulation of quantum mechanics, the theory of quantum electrodynamics, and the physics of the superfluidity of supercooled liquid helium, as well as in particle physics (he proposed the parton model)." Know how to solve every problem that has been solved.
