Step into a warm, thrilling journey through the life of Max Planck — the quiet scientist who opened a brand new door in physics!
This episode tells the true story of how a troubled puzzle about glowing ovens led to a tiny idea with huge power: energy in little packets. Told gently and with wonder, it blends music, late-night labs, careful chalk lines, and real human moments like loss, kindness, and bravery. Perfect for curious minds who love science stories full of heart.
Historical Fun Fact: Planck introduced a tiny constant (now called Planck's constant) as a bold, desperate step to match experimental data — and that tiny number became the seed of quantum theory!
Did you know? The blackbody oven (an object with a tiny hole that shines with perfect heat glow) and careful measurements by Heinrich Rubens pushed Planck to his breakthrough.
Ben & Pia host this MEGA exciting episode and invite you to explore history, science, and quiet courage.
