The speakers discuss how Einstein's theory of relativity changed our understanding of space and time, and the concept of non-Euclidean geometry. They also touch on the mystery of dark energy and express gratitude to Jason Rhodes and his bosses.
What are dark energy and dark matter? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Chuck Nice learn about the Euclid Mission and our latest efforts to uncover the secrets of The Dark Universe with JPL Researcher, Jason Rhodes.
