You should've seen Nova last night....season 46 episode 2....it was amazing! A number of physicists at the forefront of current experimental physics were on the show including one who was measuring quantum entanglement using two quasars billions of light years apart. Einstein's position was related, including his opposition to entanglement and the famous EPR paper, Bell's equally famous paper reviving it and this cosmic experiment that proved quantum entanglement. At the end another physicist spoke who talked about how quantum entanglement could be the underlying basis for reality, rather than Einstein's space time and how space time may be an emergent phenomenon that results from quantum entanglement on the cosmic scale and called it the holographic theory.....
Do they have a series on quantum mechanics also? For some reason (lol I know why) I actually prefer quantum mechanics because it rather elegantly does away with causality and intuitively, I've always felt it was correct and much more fundamental.... I've loved quantum mechanics ever since I was a child and always felt it was much closer to the truth (obviously the "truth" will have to include both.)
