Quantum Gravity

Carlo Rovelli

Josh Wolfe

I enjoy reading Carlo Rovelli also the CONTRADICTIONS reminding us we’re all FALLIBLE -In 1 quote he dismisses ‘absurd hypotheses’ + disproving them as good way to get to reality -Then shares his own conjecture (loop quantum gravity) and concedes he has no idea if it is right https://t.co/anPt0tMt4k
