Time Since Einstein
World Science Festival 2009
Directed by Allison Snyder

World Science Festival 2009 “Time Since Einstein” event. Albert Einstein shattered previous ideas about time, but left many pivotal questions unanswered: Does time have a beginning? An end? Why does it move in only one direction? Is it real, or something our minds impose on reality?

These videos set up the 3 parts of the conversation between John Hockenberry, Fotini Markopoulou, Sean Carroll, George Ellis, David Albert and Roger Penrose, by explaining the difference between time as described by Newton and Einstein.
