The Great Physicists' Road Trip by Ms. Rachel C. Millison Great physicists from the past decide to return to Earth for one last road-trip vacation to the coast together. They all appear on Earth on the appointed evening. Heisenberg pulls up behind the wheel of a gigantic 1930's car, a huge grin on his face. As they're getting in the car, Hubble looks up and says "What a wonderfully dark sky". "Shouldn't be" responds Olbers. "Always has been" says Hoyle. "No, it hasn't" says Lemaitre. "I knew that!" says an embarrassed Einstein. Once they're all in, Teller says "Hey guys, this trip is going to be The Bomb!". "Yeah, but why do I always have to organize?" asks Oppenheimer. "Where exactly will we end up?" asks Kepler. "That's impossible to predict" says Bohr. "I just can't believe that's true" says Einstein. Heisenberg punches the throttle and the old car roars off. "Say - this thing sure accelerates" says Newton. "I don't know, Isaac. It feels like gravity to me" smirks Einstein. Later that night, as they are speeding down a country road, a police car catches up to them and pulls them over.[1] "Do you know how fast you were going?" the cop asks. [1] "No, but I know exactly where I am" Heisenberg replies. [1] The cop says "You were doing 55 in a 35" [1] Heisenberg throws up his hands and shouts "Great! Now I'm lost!" [1] The cop thinks this is suspicious and orders him to pop open the trunk. He checks it out and says "Do you know you have a dead cat back here?" [1] "We do now, asshole!" shouts Schrodinger. [1] "I think it's time to split" says Everett. "Say, how did you manage to spot us on such a dark night?" asks Hubble. "I saw the light from your head lamps" says the cop. "How fast was *it* going?" asks Michelson. "That's simple addition" giggles Galileo. "Not exactly" says Lorentz. "Look here" says Heisenberg, "how do you know I was going that fast?" "I clocked you over a measured distance" says the cop. "How often?" asks Hertz. "I disagree with your measurement, officer" interjects Einstein. "Don't start tonight, Albert" says Bohr, shaking his head. "What Herr Einstein is trying to say" continues Heisenberg, "is that time was running at a different rate for you than for us". "WHAT!!!???" exclaims Newton. "It's true" says Maxwell. "We're all famous scientists and, believe us, Herr Einstein has proved it, though it came as no surprise to me". "Sounds complicated" responds the cop. "I'll draw you a simple diagram" says Feynman. Totally flummoxed, the cop lets them go with a warning. As he drives away, Doppler cocks his head and listens to the sound of the receding police car. "Gotta love that" he says. "Amen" responds Hubble. Returning to their car, Lord Kelvin remarks "Sure is warm tonight" "Yep - lots of disorder" replies Boltzmann. "In places you'd never expect" adds Hawking. "I was lucky to get away with that" says Heisenberg. "Most cops think they're better than everyone else". "Yes - I hate inequality" adds Bell. "Though you *were* speeding" says Faraday to Heisenberg. "I carefully observed the needle creep from 35 to 55". "Actually, it was jumping, Michael" replies Planck. As they pile back into the car, Bohr says "See here - you must fill the seats in order - no empty spaces allowed. And stop interfering with each other!" "Only one of you can sit next to me!" yells an agitated Pauli. "Say, Werner - it's stuffy in here. Be a good chap and crack the window a bit" says Hawking. "Sorry, Stephen. It can be all the way up or all the way down, but nowhere in between" replies Heisenberg. "Hey guys - Albert and I just figured out a great shortcut. Only one bridge" announces Rosen. "It will save us a lot of distance" says Einstein, "but it might get spooky". Arriving at the beach the next morning, they hurry from the car and stand looking out over the ocean. "Look at the wonderful waves" says Schrodinger. "They don't look like waves to me" says Bohr. Looking down at the fine sand, Dirac exclaims "Look at all the particles!" "Now *those* look like waves" says De Broglie. "This is great!" exclaims Feynman, rubbing his hands together. "Now, lets go meet some girls!" "Let's delay" says Wheeler. "We have to be discrete" warns Bohm. "Girls? NEVER!" exclaims Newton. 1 Based on, and including the original, attributed to Rich Granger, engineer, Battelle.

I admit I'll need to watch this many times before I might have a decent grasp of it. I'm in my 60's & was a high-school dropout. I went on to get a modest amount of formal education & training in a limited variety of subjects. I did okay with electronics algebra & basic trig, but then I hit a plateau. It took me a good decade to recover from that setback, and begin to realize that math can be awesome, beautiful, and even entertaining. I became a person who wished they could have been an astrophysicist. Part of that desire came from finding my way back to a youthful obsession with the nature of the universe, of which I'd all but forgotten. Later, I began to see how impressive were the skill sets of many of the world's physics giants. In the last several years, while I mainly do more-mundane, day-to-day achievements of a kind, I spend a lot of time examining everything I can find on the laws of nature & the stories of science. I can't seem to get enough of it. But I'm too often struggling with concepts that are way over my head, and I've wished to find an easy way to learn some of the fundamentals. Meanwhile, I've tried hard to acquaint myself with every existing variety of fields in which the highest math skills are put to work. I've gotten some great books from the library, and have devoured countless, thrilling stories of the history of science. I've been given or purchased several of my own, too, and have read all the magazines for the last 15 years.. I've learned about the important breakthroughs of Aristotle, Ptolemy, Newton, Brahe, Copernicus, and quite a few others, including Johannes Kepler. I have an awareness of a good number of modern-day achievements, along with today's heavy hitters. too. I can't entirely explain this fascination I've developed. It has a grip on me, and sometimes I think life would just be a lot easier, if I dropped the whole thing, but but just won't go away. Fortunately, like Ron Burgundy once said, that is in no way depressing. For all these reasons, I found a great deal of enjoyment in your fantastic video presentation. It's one of the most helpful demonstrations I've yet come across. You are to be commended, for providing the layman with such a near-intuitive overview of this sort of topic. I'm anxious to see what else you've posted. excellent job!

P Sharma I think it's actually the math perspective that's throwing me here. I have a pretty good intuitive understanding of orbits from physics in terms of angular momentum and potential energy (and let's be honest, most of my intuition for orbital dynamics comes from playing Kerbal Space Program) so this sorta abstract mathematical approach is throwing me off. I often find that math is very dense though, so it's not too surprising. The people who came up with our mathematical language did a very good job of distilling complicated ideas into concise and precise language.

It's the only way to watch a 3blue1brown video imo!

Newton started off with a bet to prove this (the ellipse being a consequence of the inverse square law) and produced a series of publications, eventually compiling the principia mathematica out of this seed. However, although he never states this clearly, I'm sure he realized that the proof he gave was for the converse: that given an elliptic orbit, an inverse square force law follows. This was much easier at the time because so much was known about the geometric properties of the ellipse than was about F=m a. In fact, Newton couldn't really mathematically use velocities because they compare two quantities with unequal units (distance, time). Also of course algebraic notations and vectors weren't invented yet. But still Newton claimed to have won his bet, and the Principia avoids any clarity about proving the inverse square law vs. the converse (proving the elliptic shape). I'm sure Newton would have LOVED this type of proof, and this proof in particular! Although I'm sure he'd appreciate how much more powerful modern mathematical notation and ideas such as vector or Lagrangian calculus are. And that's where Feynman and 3blue1brown comes in: Elementary proofs just are the next level of understanding: being able to explain something seemingly complicated in simple terms. With intuitive concepts, but with methods not more complicated that what was available to Newton.

@Simon Tracer The velocity doesnt matter, onlt the acceleration of the sun would matter.

I was a math major for 1 year before I switched to mechanical engineering. I'm now retied and can indulge my first passion. I simply loved this video. I do believe, though that the constructs are merely consequences of natural laws without any useful knowledge.

I highly recommend this excellent presentation. Bravo.

I just found this video ... BEAUTIFUL ... Richard Feynman is who I want to be when I grow up ... what an Alchemist ... I believe everything he touched turned to gold ...!!! and Grant, you should win some sort of video award for content (I know they give Creator Rewards for subscriber count) ... Hey KZread, this guy's content, production and presentation values are nonpareil ... this is a magnificent presentation and should be the standard for all other content on the web ... BRAVO Sir! Also, thank you for pointing me to the free online Feynman Lectures ... Thumbs Up...WAY Up!!!

I've commented this in many 3blue1brown videos but not enough times. This was BEAUTIFUL.

Feynman was an artist who had shown us some ultimate beauties of universe through the colours of physics.... This is a gem.... 💎💎

Tremendously clear!!!! Great job.

Was I the only one that forgot this was a minute physics video?

Wow, this is mind blowing. Very well explained - one thing you and Feynman have in common.

Appreciate the explanation as I know there are a lot of proofs of Kepler's laws, but I have found very few videos explaining Newtons conclusion on why orbits must be ellipses. That part of the story where Halley requested his analysis has always fascinated me. Thanks

At 6:13, I love the animation of the focus acting like a sprinkler! I played it 10 times.

Grant not only is a genius but he is also a fantastic teacher. Honestly, every time i didn't understand a specific part of the proof he addressed it right away, almost as if he could read my mind! That is, in essence, teaching, and he's brilliant at that!

Goddammit grant. You couldn't just be a teaching god on one channel, you gotta invade minute physics too? Jk, love you both. Henry, you got me into physics when I was in middle school (going into uni in 2 months) and Grant, recently you made linear algebra make sense. Which was strange for me, because my teacher did an absolutely awful job. Thank you both, you've helped me and many others immensely.

Grant has for sure the most awesome voice on KZread. I catch myself drifting away when he speaks all the time. O how I would love he would read bedtime stories for us (albeit probably in a separate channel)...

fantastic presentation of a difficult but interesting subject

"So the question is: What special curve satisfies the property that the tangency direction of the slope for any point theta-radians off the horizontal is given by /this vector/ from a special eccentric point on the circle to a point theta-degrees around that circle from the vertical? Okay, so is the question clear?" XD

With each new replay of the video, the question becomes clearer by 1 word. All in all, 41-43 concentrated plays of this video are required for the question to be clear. If you want proof... well, you have this line that shows it if you just turn it 90 degrees into your brain. Good luck & have fun!

This is EXACTLY what I have pondered for many years! Now it is time to take it to the next step: The algorithm is quite simple actually, all mathematics can be defined with only a couple of variables. My computer science professor would look at me cross-eyed every time is suggested that digital and analog were not meant to be separated and thus the constant battle for accuracy with "smaller and smaller slices" so to speak....

The best thing about this is that I understand very little of it but it still manages to amaze me :)

I just wanna thank you I did not completely grasp it but I do have some insights on it Thank you very much to Grant Anderson and Richard Feynman And of course Newton

Props for all the effort that went into this, I kind of expected a more intuitive overview with some examples of why this is useful, but we can't really expect you to be Feynman

Latin focō (as in the video) is the ablative of focus, which means at the fireplace. the form focus derives from the nominative which is focus not foco.

Wow...loved this one...

its beautiful. When i first learned about the focal length constancy in ellipses it drew all my attention. Maybe should have looked deeper. Maybe thats what makes a Feynmann

This is probably my favorite video on youtube.

Loved this collab. Thanks for this video! Knowledge just blasting off from this video, like water sprinkler.I don't think I managed to catch all the water.

Beautifully explained thanks

this was a strange experience for me and i dont know what to make of it- but despite never seeing this idea before, almost as soon as i heard the introduction i knew almost every step we were going to use to get there (of course it wasnt a full proof in my head using theories and all, but like the vectors making a circle and the rotations and some of the perpendicular bisector stuff, really all the visual ideas). it just... came to me at the start. never had that happen before.

Wall...so nice and not complicated at all. I think would be so hard to come with concept but once it is done is not that hard at all. He is basically using some calculus and geometry concepts. It is unbelievable how the graphics help the understanding of these things. Imagine Newton doing this from scratch with no visual aid. Also we need to congratulate Blue Brown, the way he explain it is so clear. It is like he sees inside your brain and trace the path to make your neurons flow. I didn't even had to focus that much, I just laid back and let the lines do the work for me. Awesome.....

Absolutely fascinating Explanation. Thanks.
