Something Weird Happens When E=−mc²
This video takes you on a mind-bending ride through Paul Dirac’s wild journey from “negative energy” ghosts to the birth of antimatter. You’ll see why Schrödinger’s original equation fell flat, how Dirac’s fix predicted the positron, and get a peek at the idea of particles zipping backward through time in an “anti-world.”
Along the way, we meet the quirkiest brains in physics, dig into archives from FSU and Caltech, and learn how a math hiccup turned into one of the biggest discoveries of the 20th century. It’s history, theory, and a dash of sci-fi weirdness all rolled into one.
