Why Light Doesn’t Experience Time: Richard Feynman on the Quantum Nature of Photons

Описание: *Why does light behave so strangely?* In this exploration of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED), we dive into the mind of one of history's greatest teachers, **Richard Feynman**, to uncover why our everyday concept of "motion" fails when it comes to the photon.

From the perspective of a particle traveling at the speed of light, distance shrinks to zero and time stands still. Using the intuitive, no-nonsense approach Feynman was famous for, this video breaks down the complex mathematics of probability amplitudes and special relativity into a story about how the universe truly functions.

🔬 What You’ll Learn:

*Zero Rest Mass:* Why being massless forces light to travel at .
*Time Dilation:* Why, from a photon's point of view, it arrives the exact instant it is emitted.
*Probability Amplitudes:* Moving beyond "particles on a path" to the sum-over-histories.
*Virtual Photons:* The hidden machinery of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED).
*The Limits of Intuition:* Why "movement" is a human concept that doesn't apply to the quantum scale.
