Learn why light appears to travel at the same speed for everyone — and why Relativity has nothing to do with it. Hear about research findings from a number of leading scientists, including Nobel laureates, which show that effects attributed to Special Relativity (such as speed-related time dilation) are not due to any special properties of light or the universe but follow naturally from the photon-based structure of matter.. Notably, find out how Einstein's first postulate is a direct consequence of particle structure. All explained in simple non-technical terms accessible to all.

A radically new look at the nature of our physical reality, including: What causes Relativity? How does 'curved spacetime' cause gravity? What is matter made of? Is light speed really an absolute limit? If so, how come quantum entanglement? Is time an illusion? What IS antimatter? Is wave-particle duality really a thing? How can photons behave like they do? What causes electric charge? Where does consciousness fit into all of this?

Plenty to think about - and plenty to talk about, in future episodes.
