Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Presentation Very difficult to explain the complicated concepts in 27 minutes but the presenter does an excellent job of doing so. I hope that this will develop in to a lecture series

Rated 5 out of 5 by from One of the best lectures here Finally got to understand what the science knows and doesn't know about the origins of our universe. Realizing we didn't actually originate from a point like so many other lectures incorrectly state was such an eye opener. Please have more fascinating lectures like this.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very informative and easy to understand. I'm happy that he felt kept saying "We don't know." since it's better to state what we don't know than making something up.
