Penrose and Brian Cox | Evidence About the Origins of the Universe

Roger Penrose and Brian Cox discuss how Roger got interested in physics, the Big Bang, and the role of beauty in mathematics.

From the Big Bang to the fabric of spacetime and the nature of consciousness, our core scientific assumptions frame how we understand and perceive reality. But there are many challenges to our current understanding.


if the very foundations of our theories are flawed? Should we reconsider our understanding? And how radically might our view of the universe have to change?


Join Roger Penrose, Nobel Prize Laureate and winner of the Wolf prize, in collaboration with Stephen Hawking, with legendary physicist and science communicator, Brian Cox, to explore whether the flaws in our current theories are at some fundamental level insurmountable, or whether they can be extended or changed to overcome these challenges.
