Maths at: The FUTURE!

Back to the future. There's no maths in it. We just wanted to watch a good film. I suppose we should talk about it too.

 

In today's programme:

• we travel through time at a rate of 1 second/second.
  
• is Harry Potter better than Back to the Future?
• how do the laws of physics change when we're moving?
• all our knowledge is guided by the wonderful Naomi Wray.

Further reading:

• is time travel complicated? Take a look at this infographic and learn about 3 Theories of Time Travel;
• have a glimpse at Hannah's programme partying with Steven Hawking;
• watch Kip Thorne present on black holes at Cardiff University.
