Dr Steven Weinberg

[@MrStarchild3001]

A great man! I loved all of his popular books. It's a pleasure to be listening to him after his passing. Super sharp, super insightful...always.

[@jameslai6879]

I have mustered my courage to read Prof. Weinberg's textbooks finally

[@science212]

Weinberg was a great science man.

To solve a bet. When it's over one scientist will say to the other, "see told ya" and the other will give him a dollar.

As it should be lol

SCSC Cancelled 1993, so this video from late 1980s ?

[@IseppOrg3945]

Book tour in 2013-2014 ? To Explain the World: The Discovery of Modern Science

[@MrStarchild3001]

Dreams of a Final Theory book tour. The book came out in 1992. This is from 1992 or a bit later.

[@science212]

ISABELLE was a good project in 1983.

Who is paying for this and what is the payoff

[@tracitore8220]

It was cancelled years ago

[@joaneliasmiro]

The society, through taxes, would be primarly paying. The highest quality science is percieved as dry by a big chunk of the society and thus tends not to recieve funding from flashy billionaries of the likes of gates, bezos and musk. The payoff is gaining further insight into the laws of physics governing the universe. It sounds worthwhile to me.

@@joaneliasmiro Especially considering that insights in physics have had dramatic benefits to the world, the wonder of transistors being given to us by quantum physics totally altering our lives.

[@barryomahony4983]

Cancelled years ago, along with all those construction jobs and America’s leadership in Physics, which is now centered in Europe. In the meantime, we’ve wasted over 15x as much on the useless International Space Station.

[@inkland2003]

The cancellation is very shortsighted !
