The Biggest Ideas in the Universe is a series of videos where I talk informally about some of the fundamental concepts that help us understand our natural world. Exceedingly casual, not overly polished, and meant for absolutely everybody.
This is the Q&A video for Idea #12, "Scale." A handful of interesting questions about different kinds of elementary particles. Some known to exist, some completely hypothetical.
