Einstein Light
Einstein's  Theory of Relativity, the most famous idea that nobody understands, is now completely explained in five one-minute films. Well, not really. The University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia advises that it'll take some more effort on your part to grasp the whole thing, but they certainly help get the ball rolling (or the watch ticking). Get this -- the speed of light from a uniformly moving source is always the same, regardless of how fast it's moving. We're still dealing with that one, but we had a eureka moment on the concept of time dilation, as demonstrated by Zoe driving her car while Jasper watches from his veranda. Thanks, Professor Wolfe!
