If you've studied any physics you know that like charges repel and opposite charges attract. But why? It's as though this thing - electric charge - is as fundamental a property of an object as its mass. It just sort of ... is. Well it turns out if you dig deep enough, the fundamental-ness of charge unravels, and in many things, including mass itself, are unraveled with it.

Sit down looking for video to watch with lunch, see PBS spacetime notification. Nice.

whoever writes these episodes does a great job. i can't imagine how hard it must be to select and sequence information on topics like these in a way that makes sense to people who know very little. and do it in ten minutes . teaching is an underappreciated skill

Can't get over how consistently mind-blowingly excellent this show is.

I love the analogy of the child’s “but whys”. A lot of physics feels like that sometimes once you get down to the basic structure of everything. I guess that’s what Science is, a grown up “But why” to the universe.

This is such a great series. I love this particular episode. We need more in-depth episodes like this one. Thanks, Matt!

As someone mentioned earlier, would LOVE a catch up episode of where we stand in these topics. That is, what is 100% proven, what is still purely theoretical, and what is still just an hypothesis.

I'm starting to think physicists are just writing quantum mechanics fan fiction at this point

I love how these titles are so shocking at first glance. Not because they're bait-ish, but because the topics are actually so fundamental to our understanding of our immediate reality that any new hypothesis in the field represents such great change.

Ive been hoping Space Time would do an entire series on SU(3) and the other special unitary groups relating to quantum physics, but I appreciate the magnitude of such an undertaking. All I can say is treat your motion designer extra nice when theyre working on that!

Feedback: Found this episode harder to understand as usual. Hyper/isocharge got me lost and spin as well as the fundamental symmetries are always a mystery to me.

I'm no physicist, but several years ago I found myself dazzled with things connected to cosmology, astrophysics and quantum theory. When I tried to understand those charges, hypercharges and isospins my head almost blew. Thank you for this episode, I need to watch it several times to get a grasp of those concepts but I hope I'll get there. Is there a hint that you'll finally explain the Z boson?

I''ve said it before, I'll continue to say it. This series is truly amazing and should be preserved as important to humanity. Will continue to watch for the rest of my life.

I am neither a math person, nor a science person; I mainly watch these with my son, who loves this stuff. What I love are the moments when I can

From charge to spin to chirality, it's funny how many things in Physics are just bi-valued conserved quantities oscillating between those two values.

I adore how subatomic particles seem to inch time forward and direct it, all by pure fundamental properties, and the fact that there's distinction between a particle's "left and right".
