Sinopsis(1)
Decades after Albert Einstein’s death, scientists and astronomers around the world are still pursuing the theoretical fragments unleashed by his explosive theory of general relativity and gravitation. The ideas of gravitational waves and dark matter have enthralled scientists, becoming the life’s work of many. Each, in his or her own manner, has set out to either prove, refute, or expand upon Einstein’s groundbreaking ideas. Chasing Einstein introduces us to some of these remarkable men and women. This energetic and entertaining documentary whirls us around the globe to meet Particle Hunters, Dark Matterists (and deniers), Gravitational Wave Astronomers, and satellites designed to create a 3-D map of the universe. Einstein said if you couldn’t explain your theory to a six-year-old, it was probably wrong. With clarity and delightful graphics, Chasing Einstein embraces the non-scientists among us, inviting us to join along as these wonderful folks expand our knowledge and confront how very, very little we actually know.
