Kathy Kukonasvili: Why is string theory so unprovable? And if so, why are we still trying to prove it? "I slap him upside the head and say, right, why haven't you string theorists solve this problem yet?" she says of Brian Green. She also reveals her plans for a trip to Mars.
Is it time to rethink string theory? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Chuck Nice explore a mix of questions about the fundamental properties of the universe, particles, the speed of light and more!
