Authoritarianism and the Science of Time and Space

  • Summary

  • In many countries, there is a significant difference in the perception of the culture between males and females. This is just one of the reasons why authoritarian movements have a very strong opposition to any sort of differences in sexuality, sexual identity, and sexual orientation—because many of those ideas fly in the face of a cultural value that says that these are very fundamental differences between people.


    Welcome to episode eight of Now I Get It with Dr. Andy. Today, I’m talking about the intersection of authoritarianism and the scientific understanding of time, space, and gravity.


    Tune in and listen as I explore the nature of time and space and the role of cesium clocks in establishing a precise definition of time.


    In this episode, you will learn:

    • The map isn't the territory (06:18)
    • Whatever you choose as your clock, they all scale together (10:59)
    • Most of the time, we get to live very well with the illusion that we all experience the same time and space (19:01)
    • Light is found to travel at exactly that one speed (22:53)


    Let’s connect!
