New episodes come out every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

We'd like to thank our listeners.

It applies to the cosmological and astrophysical realm. Let's get cozy. Close your eyes. Relax your body into the softness of your bed.

Lecture 1. Space and time in pre-relativity physics.

The theory of relativity is intimately connected with the theory of space and time.

I shall therefore begin with a brief investigation of the origin of our ideas of space and time.

Although in doing so I know that I introduce a controversial subject.

The object of all science, whether natural science or psychology,

is to coordinate our experiences and to bring them into a
