Space Time Livestream: Ask Matt Anything
Summary
In this first live stream of PBS Space Time, host Chris Lintott discusses the nature of the speed of light, Stephen Wolfram’s cellular automata theory, and conservation laws in expanding universes. He also explains how black holes conserve quantum information and how cats rotate mid-air without violating angular momentum, with help from his partner Bahar. The episode concludes with a tour of Lintott’s apartment, featuring his cat Simone, a solar telescope, and a bookshelf highlighting recommended physics texts like Roger Penrose’s *The Road to Reality*.
