Searching for the Meaning of Life with Physics
Life is no accident
More than a few of us have lost sleep over the realisation of how vanishingly small we are in the grand scheme of the cosmos. Our world has been around for aeons, yet modern humans only appeared 350,000 years ago. So what is the meaning of life then?
The answer, according to science influencer Tim Vollert, can be found in physics. The sum of our parts is a logical consequence of natural laws. On a journey from the Big Bang to the heat death of the universe, he explains the physics of the cosmos and the biology behind the origins of life, delving deep in his search for meaning.
