The New Feynman Lectures

Gravity shapes everything we make. On Earth, drug crystals sink, swirl and collide as they grow, and the result is messier than it needs to be. What happens when you turn gravity off? In this episode of The New Feynman Lectures, Will Bruey, CEO & Co-Founder at Varda Space Industries, uses dice, entropy and the second law of thermodynamics to explain why crystals grown in orbit come out more ordered.

The grid is breaking. The modern power system wasn't built for renewables, EVs, or the energy demands of tomorrow. What does it mean to re-imagine the future of American power? In this episode of The New Feynman Lectures, we dig into how distributed battery networks are reimagining the grid from the ground up — and what it takes to build the modern power company of the electric era. Justin Lopas, COO & Co-Founder at Base Power Company, gives The New Feynman Lectures on Distributed Batteries & the Modern Grid.
