What science may never explain │ Carlo Rovelli at Brain Bar

One of the world's most popular and likable scientists, theoretical physicist and philosopher of science Carlo Rovelli, took the Brain Bar main stage this year. Known by readers everywhere for his strikingly poetic books on time and the universe, he completely challenged our perspective on reality.

During his presentation, he reminded us of a mind-bending concept: time does not actually exist. There is no universal "now" and no cosmic clock of any kind. Instead, he explained that our world is made up not of "things," but only of "relations and events."

We had a deeply inspiring conversation with him about where the true limits of human knowledge lie, and explored the profound questions that science may never be able to answer.

Thank you to everyone who joined us to hear from one of the greatest minds of the global intellectual elite!
