minutephysics | Evolution vs Natural Selection @MinutePhysics | Uploaded 10 years ago | Updated 9 hours ago
Most of us hear the word "evolution" and think of the process by which species change and adapt and maybe turn into other species or go extinct - but that's specifically the evolution of life forms by means of natural selection.

The second is already defined in terms of a certain number of oscillations of a photon of the ground state hyperfine splitting energy of Cesium, the meter is then defined as how far light travels in a particular fraction of a second, and hopefully soon, the kilogram will be defined either using the Avogadro approach of counting silicon atoms in a sphere, or using the Watt (Kibble) Balance approach of measuring Plancks constant, h, as used in the formula E=hf for the energy of a photon, which relates to mass via Einsteins famous E=mc^2.
