Cosmology is the one field in which researchers can—literally—witness the past. The cosmic background radiation, ancient light streaming toward us since the Big Bang, provides a pristine window onto the birth and evolution of the universe. Already, the radiation has been key to confirming an early explosive expansion of space, determining the geometric shape of the universe and identifying seeds that resulted in galaxies. Now, the cosmic background radiation is poised to reveal when the first stars formed, what happened in the fraction of a second after the Big Bang, and the answers to a host of other bold questions about the cosmos. Join Nobel Laureate John Mather and other leading scientists who are leading the way.

The World Science Festival gathers great minds in science and the arts to produce live and digital content that allows a broad general audience to engage with scientific discoveries. Our mission is to cultivate a general public informed by science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.

The neutrino is among the cagiest of particles, a subatomic wisp so ephemeral it could pass through light years of lead with more ease than a hot knife through butter. Despite its extraordinary abundance in the universe—billions pass through your body every second—this ghostly particle is notoriously difficult to trap, inspiring some of the most sophisticated detectors in science just to study it. A closer look could change everything. The elusive neutrino holds clues to some of the most profound questions in particle physics: What happened in the briefest moments after the Big Bang? Why does the universe contain more matter than antimatter? Join leading researchers as they chase neutrinos and other elusive particles in search of nature’s fundamental order.

This video describes the binary mathematics behind the Ifá Divination system. The 256 Odùs of Ifá are displayed in Binary Form on the Opon tray. Also, a shell on the Opele chain is used as an analogy to describe how Qubits, or Quantum Binary Digits, operate in Quantum Computing.

History matters, says Thierry Zomahoun. Storytelling sets the tone for global perceptions of reality, which in turn influence the behavior of one group of people towards another. In this address delivered in October 2017 at the 10th World Conference of Science Journalists in San Francisco, California, Zomahoun presented evidence that the Greek, Roman and other Western discoveries in mathematics that contributed to modern science were made thousands of years after similar African developments. Zomahoun argues that Africa is the birthplace of mathematical sciences, and that this is the continent’s single biggest contribution to humanity.

Historian and primary researcher Professor Manu Ampim visited Google Mountain View to discuss "Classical African Contributions to the World in Math & Science." From the origins of Pythagorean's theorem to monuments in our Nation's capital, his presentation demonstrates the importance and legacy of world contributions from Classical African Civilizations to the fields of writing, engineering, mathematics and medicine as we know them today. This event took place on March 20, 2014.
