The story behind ‘The Quest for the Higgs’. In 1999 my father Martinus Veltman won the Nobel Prize in physics and quite quickly it became apparent that I had no idea for what. In fact, it’s fair to say that barely anyone today knows much about the present forefront of physics. This was not always the case. There was a great celebration and basic public understanding of physics in the early 20th century. The celebrity of Einstein and his theory relativity, the discoveries of the structure of the atom and of course the atomic bomb. The general public knew to some extent the idea of fusion, a nucleus surrounded by electrons, etc.. But since then, the last 60 plus years of discovery has gone into a realm of mystery. Quarks, Leptons, Higgs, Quantum Mechanics, Weak Force, Gauge Theory, and the list of mysterious terms goes on and on. However, my dad believed that we are at a point where the picture of particle physics has gotten quite clear and can be explained to the layman… me! We decided to make an educational film and the task of writing it fell upon me. What followed was two years of intense learning. Reading one layman book after another and asking my dad numerous questions. Of particular help was in fact my dad’s book “Fact and Mysteries of Particle Physics.” A complex book but it is all there without crazy mathematical formulas. The Eureka moment of how to explain Particle Physics came with the book QED by Richard Feynman. In the foreword he explains that he was asked …

If you are sitting still in space, then you are traveling through time at the maximum speed. But if you begin traveling through space, then your progress through time slows down.

This is an edited version of philhellenes video “Science Saved My Soul”. I loved the full length video, but I especially liked the first five minutes which were about science and space. I don’t own this video, it is the property of philhellenes, hopefully he doesn’t mind the edit, if he does I will gladly delete it. Watch the full video here: www.youtube.com Visit philhellenes channel here: www.youtube.com
