Sinopse
Vyacheslavs Kashcheyevs is a man who feels the world with each single one of his atoms and breaks the stereotype about physics as a dry and impersonal field of science. In parallel to splitting electrons in the laboratory, he seeks a connection to the Almighty, and is a dreamer, an exceptional scientist, family man and educator, socially active and civically minded. What allows him, unlike most of us, to be so harmonious and seemingly omniscient? Together with quantum physicist, theological authority and Latvian patriot Vyacheslav Kashcheyev, the film searches for the code to modern-day life.
Durante um jantar, oito amigos começam a falar sobre a proximidade de um cometa, e sobre os rumores de que a passagem deste corpo celestre é capaz de trazer mudanças graves no comportamento das pessoas. Logo após a discussão, a luz acaba, e estranhos fenômenos começam a acontecer com os convidados, questionando a noção de realidade.
Uma nave espacial pousa em Washington DC trazendo o alienígena Klaatu e seu robô Gort. Eles trazem um ultimato aos líderes da Terra para que acabem com as guerras e a corrida armamentista, o que estaria preocupando os habitantes de outros planetas. Logo no desembarque, Klaatu é baleado por um soldado que o julgava inimigo. É levado a um hospital, onde se cura rapidamente e recebe a visita do secretário de Estado dos Estados Unidos, a quem pede ajuda do presidente para organizar uma conferência de líderes mundiais. O secretário encaminha sua proposta ao governo, que a rejeita.
Em 1938, a britânica Joan Stanley estudava física em Cambridge quando se apaixonou por um jovem comunista. Na mesma época, ela foi convocada pelo Comitê de Segurança Russo (KGB) para atuar como espiã do Governo de Stalin no Reino Unido. Depois de mais de cinquenta anos de serviço muito bem sucedidos, ela foi descoberta e presa pela Serviço de Inteligência Britânico (MI5).
Por milhares de anos, apenas a religião ofereceu uma resposta para o que vem após a morte. A ciência está prestes a mudar isso. Com a ajuda de um físico, um médium cego e o experimento final de Thomas Edison, Brayden Taylor embarca numa jornada para contatar o além. Por seu amor em transcender dimensões, ele deve desafiar as leis da física quântica. Deve desafiar as leis da natureza. Deve desafiar... o modelo de Deus.
Three very different people — a quantum physicist, a neuroscientist (Sheetal Sheth), and an FBI agent — find themselves drawn into a spiraling mystery. Confronted with a mysterious car accident, the three must interpret clues that defy common sense. Their collective quest takes them from science to art to music to mysticism in a widening search for answers. After an intense outward chase to satisfy their rational minds, the trio realizes the answers they desire lie buried deep within themselves. As each seeker begins to embrace the true nature of reality, each is rewarded with revelations beyond their wildest imaginings. What they learn leaves them humbled and in awe of the strange and beautiful universe we call home. When everything makes sense, nothing makes sense. This highly philosophical narrative has been applauded by scientists, artists, thinkers, scholars, media, academia, students and audiences from 10 to 80+ years old.
Almost one hundred years ago, the project to reduce the world to mathematical physics failed suddenly and completely: “One of the best-kept secrets of science,” physicist Nick Herbert writes, “is that physicists have lost their grip on reality.” The world, we are now told, emerges spontaneously, out of “nothing,” and constitutes a “multiverse,” where “anything that can happen will happen, and it will happen an infinite number of times.” Legendary reclusive genius Wolfgang Smith demonstrates on shockingly obvious grounds the dead end at which physics has arrived, and how we can “return, at last, to the real world.” The End of Quantum Reality introduces this extraordinary man to a contemporary audience which has, perhaps, never encountered a true philos-sophia, one as intimately at ease with the rigors of quantum physics as with the greatest schools of human wisdom.
O poder de um teclado! É o que tenta demonstrar este excelente documentário da série Horizon, exibido pela rede britânica BBC. Talvez não nos moldes exagerados dos filmes de Hollywood, onde poucos minutos de frenética dedicação de um hacker seriam necessários para causar uma série de estragos. Mas pela criatividade e inusitadas técnicas que podem ser utilizadas na invasão de um único computador ou de toda uma rede, mesmo que julgada ser de máxima segurança.
The game is real and the stakes are high as the future of humanity hangs in the balance. Can Paul Rudd, an actor, beat Stephen Hawking, one of the greatest minds of our generation, in a game of chess that will determine the future of humanity? Most likely not. Unless...
After his wife is killed in a hit-and-run accident by a mysterious Hooded Man, Theoretical Physicist Dylan Brandt builds a Quantum Suicide Machine to jump through parallel universes to find another version of his wife. Based on the ancient Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, where a man storms of the Gates of Hades to return his wife to the land of the living, Dylan transverses infinite worlds of the Multi-verse to find his wife. But with every jump, Dylan is thwarted by the efforts of the mysterious Hooded Man, until the rules of physics completely break down, threatening to destroy the universe and everything in it.
Since before time, humankind has pondered one central question...who are we, and why are we here? Many theories have been put forth by religious leaders, scientists, philosophers, writers, artists, and countless others. None of the theories have held the test of time because there is a central fact, a hidden truth so powerful it almost transcends comprehension. It is so shocking, few dare imagine it. To keep this secret question hidden countless people throughout the centuries have been misled, manipulated, lied to, and even slaughtered, their lives ruined to benefit the ruling class. The most powerful and successful people on earth do not want you to know these truths, because it would undermine their control over the earth's population of sheeple. Once this incredible truth sweeps the world, nothing will be the same. Don't be left behind on this one. Watch for...The Endless Question.
