Sean Carroll: Many Worlds

Sean Carroll is a theoretical physicist, a professor at CalTech, and an acclaimed science writer. And there might be more than one of him. At least, that’s what his newest book Something Deeply Hidden posits. In this groundbreaking work, Carroll lays out the Many Worlds Theory, which argues that the world is constantly generating new versions of itself, each representing different outcomes of particular events. If this all sounds a bit more science fiction than science, fear not: Carroll is known for his lucid and accessible thinking, which he’ll bring to CHF as he invites us to explore the awesome and enormous possibilities contained in our universe(s). This program is presented in partnership with the Illinois Science Council. This program was recorded on November 2, 2019.
