Why Death Is Just Your Atoms Going Home — The Science Nobody Talks About

Описание: You've never really been "you." Not in the way you think. The atoms in your body right now were once inside dying stars, drifting through space, dissolving in ancient oceans — and when you're gone, every last one of them will move on. Unchanged. Unaware. Ready for the next assignment.
In this video, we explore what physics actually tells us about death — not as a philosophical abstraction, but as an atomic accounting problem. Inspired by Richard Feynman's approach in The Feynman Lectures on Physics and The Character of Physical Law, this lecture follows the journey of a single atom through stars, soil, and you.
