Time Travel

The topic of eliminating bias occurs in all branches of science. As part of a larger series on physics, an interesting video introduces viewers to one way quantum physicists approached this issue. She explains the problem with quantum...

Carve out some time to learn about space-time. Young scientists use a remote learning resource to read up on the relationship between space and time. They consider the idea of relativity, see how objects with a large mass can bend space...

With the understanding of space-time and fourth dimensional space comes the question of time travel and free will. The physics of time-travel and time relativity is well explained by leading physicists. This is a highly theoretical...

Take a look at an organized physics course. The 34-section electronic textbook covers material in AP® Physics 1 and 2. Teachers use the text to supplement lectures and have the class work through the labs. Each section contains...

The simple question What time is it? may not be so simple after all. Learn about the history of measuring time and the debate on if time even exists with a short video that considers both classical physics and quantum physics when...

What is a black hole? Learn about frame dragging, space-time, cosmic strings, and what they mean to time-travelers. This is a very interesting clip that uses CG graphics, scientific discussion, and comprehensive narration to postulate...

The mind-bending concept of space-time is further discussed by two cartoon scientists in this second of three animated films. Assign each part and the accompanying Think questions as homework or as an enrichment when working on motion...

Introduce teams to quantum dot solutions with an activity that has them expose solutions to a blacklight, observe the colors, and take measurements. Groups graph the data and analyze the dependence between particle size and...

Is time travel possible? Watch well known physicist Michio Kaku explain some of the exciting time travel possibilities that appear in the movie 'Back to the Future'. [2:14]
