#428 – Sean Carroll: General Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, Black Holes & Aliens

4904.494 - 4929.367 Sean Carroll

It depends what you mean by beauty, but I think that the answer to your question is quantum mechanics can start with extraordinarily austere, tiny ingredients and in principle lead to the world, right? That boggles my mind. It's much more comprehensive. General relativity is about gravity, and that's great. Quantum mechanics is about everything. and seems to be up to the task.
