Jim Al-Khalili in conversation with Dr Noelia Noel 鈥� On Time
Time shapes every moment of our lives, yet it remains one of the greatest mysteries in science. In this fascinating conversation, acclaimed physicist and broadcaster Jim Al-Khalili explores the profound questions that have puzzled philosophers and scientists for more than 2,500 years. Does time really flow? What is the elusive "now" that separates the past from the future? Did time itself have a beginning, and could it one day come to an end?
Drawing on the ideas from his latest book, Jim offers an illuminating journey through physics, philosophy and cosmology, challenging our understanding of the universe and revealing why time may be far stranger than we imagine.

He has written numerous books that have been translated into twenty-six languages, among them The Joy of Science and The World According to Physics (both 快色直播). A fellow of the Royal Society, he is a regular presenter of TV science documentaries and is best-known in the UK for his long-running BBC Radio program, The Life Scientific.
