The Explainer Series is about exploring the questions we’re all asking.

Time rules our lives. We measure it, manage it, waste it, save it and constantly wish we had more of it. But for something so familiar, time is surprisingly difficult to explain. What actually is time? Did humans invent it, or is it a fundamental part of the universe? And why does it sometimes fly and sometimes seem to stand still?

The Explainer Series: Time journeys from the first calendars and clocks to Einstein’s relativity and the latest thinking in physics and philosophy. We’ll explore how humans learned to measure time, why our experience of it can be so different from what science tells us, and whether the past, present and future are quite what we think they are.

Normally a great discussion, worth the visit! Next year I will be attending them all....in active retirement!!

Cheers Chris
