Stephen Hawking the renowned British professor and researcher, collaborated on the development of an application for iOS which has the role of helping us to learn the principles of physics much more easily and not only that. Stephen Hawking's Snapshots of the Universe is the name of the application and it was developed mainly for children, being thought to help them learn physics through specially designed experiments. Despite its target, anyone can use it for the same purpose, the experiments being engaging and educational.
How does the universe work? Stephen Hawking's Snapshots of the Universe explains the principles that control our universe through simple and fun experiments. From one of the world's greatest thinkers you'll learn why:
- Planets stay in orbit around stars
- Black holes may not actually be black
- Time is not the same for everyone
- Objects fall at different speeds
- Stars are not always where we perceive them to be
- Motion and location depend on an outside observer
- Gravity and acceleration have more in common than you think
- Our understanding of the universe has evolved over time.
Stephen Hawking's Snapshots of the Universe is available in universal format, in App Store.
