Learn Through Videos: Physics
This is a collection of links to videos related to physics and physicists, which are made for general audience, such as documentary films. The videos demystify physics concepts in an easy-to-understand way, explain what is happening in physics, tell the story of physicists, or try to find scientific answers to the questions: "how did the universe begin? what is the world made of? what is out there?"
