Featuring Morgan Freeman, Stephen Hawking, Michio Kaku, Brian Cox, Richard Feynman, and Frank Close. "The Quantum World" is the eleventh installment in the ongoing Symphony of Science music video series. Materials used in the creation of this video are from: symphonyofscience.com for downloads & more videos!

Lyrics [Morgan Freeman] So, what are we really made of? Dig deep inside the atom and you'll find tiny particles Held together by invisible forces Everything is made up Of tiny packets of energy Born in cosmic furnaces [Frank Close] The atoms that we're made of have Negatively charged electrons Whirling around a big bulky nucleus [Michio Kaku] The Quantum Theory Offers a very different explanation Of our world [Brian Cox] The universe is made of Twelve particles of matter Four forces of nature That's a <b>...</b>

What is Science?
What is Science is a video by www.StatedClearly.com designed to clarify what exactly science is and what qualifies as scientific evidence. This video is part of a series on science that will help people understand the differences between science and religion. Science and religion are currently both very important parts of human culture and should be clearly understood by the public. Why is it important to understand the difference between science and religion? Understanding Science and Religion helps us to more appropriately interact as a multicultural and multi-religious society. It helps us understand what is and what is not appropriate in public settings such as schools and government. For example In Dover Pennsylvania, the school district wanted to insert a creator based hypothesis called Intelligent Design into the biology curriculum. It went to court in 2005 and was banned by Judge John E. Jones III (a conservative Republican and Christian) who claimed that the teaching of Intelligent Design was a violation of the constitutional separation of Church and State. Many Christians were confused by this decision and some claimed that it was persecution against Christians. Many Christians and Muslims are under the false impression that the theory of Evolution is simply an atheistic belief and that Intelligent Design should be given equal time in the classroom. Other Christians understand the difference between science and religion and do not see Evolution as a threat to <b>...</b>

Make Glow Sticks - The Science
We show how to make glow sticks and go through all the chemicals needed as well as how to make different colors. We also talk about the chemistry and scientifically research a proposed mechanism. To make the glow stick mix together the following: 10mL Diethyl Phthalate (solvent) 3mg of fluorescent dye (see below) 50mg TCPO (see below) 100mg sodium acetate 3mL 30% hydrogen peroxide (add last to start reaction) The fluorescent dye can be 9,10-bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene for green, Rubrene for yellow, 9,10-diphenylanthracene for blue, and rhodamine B for red. TCPO is expensive to buy but can be made for much cheaper by following the directions in our previous video: www.youtube.com The chemicals, including the ones to make TCPO were purchased from alfa aesar: www.alfa.com The Rhodamine B and Rubrene dyes were instead purchased from sigma Aldrich www.sigmaaldrich.com The dyes and TCPO are carcinogenic and gloves should be worn when handling them. The TCPO and sodium acetate amounts can be varied considerably and still obtain good light. Smaller quantities tend to be dimmer and decay faster, while larger quantities last longer. For those of you higher level individuals that actually do want to know the mechanism for this process, please refer to this article: pubs.acs.org

Ghetto Science - Smoking
Most people haven't seen this, but I bet it would help more people understand why smoking isn't a good idea. Filmed in one take and completely produced in under an hour. If you think the results are fake, go ahead and try it yourself. And if you start smoking, you are an absolute idiot. For the record, I'm a smoker. I've quit, but that will never make me a non-smoker. Once you're addicted, you're a smoker for life. All I can do is try to always be a smoker who is not smoking today. The music in the background is Mozart's Requiem Lacrymosa. Anyone know why?
