“If our lives are brief and undirected, at least we can take pride in our mutual courage as we struggle to understand things much greater than ourselves.” - Sean Carroll

We shouldn’t be here. Not really, anyway. The chances that one day trillions upon trillions of atoms would all come together and make a sentient little sack of anxiety are unimaginably small. Yet here we are, wandering around the Earth, asking the question “why us?!” When you really think about it we might just be a cosmic joke – creatures aware enough to know the big questions, but not smart enough to answer them.
If your little bundle of atoms worry about the odds that you’d be here to worry in the first place, then this video is for you!
Charge into dark matters and solve the great mysteries of the universe with Sean Carroll.
This video comes from our Outside The Box event series - live online events that feature prolific speakers whose ideas will challenge and change the way you see the world. Find out more at https://thinkinc.org.au/events/outside-the-box/
ABOUT THINK INC.
Think Inc. is a community of individuals on a mission to expose the true face of modern society. Armed with ideas, we defy the stale conventions of learning by shifting the world’s attention to global ideas, while opening minds.
We’re not on the fringe. We are trendsetters with the power to shift perceptions and reshape the face of the mainstream.
In 2014, Think Inc. launched with the mandate of creating a community where ideas can be shared, challenged, voiced and became a champion of democratising ideas. On this foundation, Think Inc. has grown into a powerful collective.
