Produced starting in 1982, the videos make heavy use of historical dramatizations and visual aids to explain
physics concepts. The latter were state of the art at the time, incorporating almost 8 hours of computer animation
created by computer graphics pioneer Jim Blinn. Each episode opens and closes with bookend segments in which Caltech
professor David Goodstein, speaking in a lecture hall, delivers explanations "that can't quite be put into the
mouth of our affable, faceless narrator". After more than a quarter century, the series is still often used as a
supplemental teaching aid, for its clear explanation of fundamental concepts such as special relativity.

The
bookend segments featuring Goodstein were specially staged versions of actual freshman physics lectures from
Caltech's courses Physics 1a and 1b. The organization and the choice of topics to emphasize in the television show
reflect a then-recent revision of Caltech's introductory physics curriculum, the first total overhaul since the one
represented by The Feynman Lectures on Physics almost two decades earlier. While Feynman generally sought contemporary
examples of topics, the later revision of the curriculum brought a more historical focus.

In essence, the
earlier Feynman course had sought to make physics exciting by relating each subject, wherever possible, to contemporary
scientific problems. The new course took the opposite tack, of trying to recreate the historical excitement of the
original discovery. For example, classical mechanics—a notoriously difficult and uninspiring subject for
students—is treated as the discovery of "our place in the universe". Accordingly, celestial mechanics
is the backbone of the subject and its climax is Newton's solution of the Kepler problem.

Episodes
1. Introduction 
This preview introduces revolutionary ideas and heroes from Copernicus to
Newton, and links the physics of the heavens and the earth.

2. The Law of Falling Bodies 
Galileo's
imaginative experiments proved that all bodies fall with the same constant acceleration.

3. Derivatives 
The function of mathematics in physical science and the derivative as a practical tool.

4. Inertia 
Galileo risks his favored status to answer the questions of the universe with his law of inertia.

5.
Vectors 
Physics must explain not only why and how much, but also where and which way.

6. Newton's
Laws 
Newton lays down the laws of force, mass, and acceleration.

7. Integration 
Newton and
Leibniz arrive at the conclusion that differentiation and integration are inverse processes.

8. The Apple and
the Moon 
The first real steps toward space travel are made as Newton discovers that gravity describes the force
between any two particles in the universe.

9. Moving in Circles 
A look at the Platonic theory of
uniform circular motion.

10. Fundamental Forces 
All physical phenomena of nature are explained by four
forces: two nuclear forces, gravity, and electricity.

11. Gravity, Electricity, Magnetism 
Shedding
light on the mathematical form of the gravitational, electric, and magnetic forces.

12. The Millikan
Experiment 
A dramatic recreation of Millikan's classic oil-drop experiment to determine the charge of a
single electron.

13. Conservation of Energy 
According to one of the major laws of physics, energy is
neither created nor destroyed.

14. Potential Energy 
Potential energy provides a powerful model for
understanding why the world has worked the same way since the beginning of time.

15. Conservation of Momentum

What keeps the universe ticking away until the end of time?

16. Harmonic Motion 
The music and
mathematics of periodic motion.

17. Resonance 
Why a swaying bridge collapses with a high wind, and why
a wine glass shatters with a higher octave.

18. Waves 
With an analysis of simple harmonic motion and a
stroke of genius, Newton extended mechanics to the propagation of sound.

19. Angular Momentum 
An old
momentum with a new twist.

20. Torques and Gyroscopes 
From spinning tops to the precession of the
equinoxes.

21. Kepler's Three Laws 
The discovery of elliptical orbits helps describe the motion of
heavenly bodies with unprecedented accuracy.

22. The Kepler Problem 
The deduction of Kepler's laws
from Newton's universal law of gravitation is one of the crowning achievements of Western thought.

23.
Energy and Eccentricity 
The precise orbit of a heavenly body — a planet, asteroid, or comet — is
fixed by the laws of conservation of energy and angular momentum.

24. Navigating in Space 
Voyages to
other planets use the same laws that guide planets around the solar system.

25. Kepler to Einstein 
From
Kepler's laws and the theory of tides, to Einstein's general theory of relativity, into black holes, and
beyond.

26. Harmony of the Spheres 
A last lingering look back at mechanics to see new connections
between old discoveries.

27. Beyond the Mechanical Universe 
The world of electricity and magnetism, and
20th-century discoveries of relativity and quantum mechanics.

28. Static Electricity 
Eighteenth-century
electricians knew how to spark the interest of an audience with the principles of static electricity.

29. The
Electric Field 
Faraday's vision of lines of constant force in space laid the foundation for the modern force
field theory.

30. Potential and Capacitance 
Franklin proposes a successful theory of the Leyden jar and
invents the parallel plate capacitor.

31. Voltage, Energy, and Force 
When is electricity dangerous or
benign, spectacular or useful?

32. The Electric Battery 
Volta invents the electric battery using the
internal properties of different metals.

33. Electric Circuits 
The work of Wheatstone, Ohm, and
Kirchhoff leads to the design and analysis of how current flows.

34. Magnetism 
Gilbert discovered that
the earth behaves like a giant magnet. Modern scientists have learned even more.

35. The Magnetic Field 
The law of Biot and Sarvart, the force between electric currents, and Ampère's law.

36. Vector
Fields and Hydrodynamics 
Force fields have definite properties of their own suitable for scientific study.

37. Electromagnetic Induction 
The discovery of electromagnetic induction in 1831 creates an important
technological breakthrough in the generation of electric power.

38. Alternating Current 
Electromagnetic
induction makes it easy to generate alternating current while transformers make it practical to distribute it over long
distances.

39. Maxwell's Equations 
Maxwell discovers that displacement current produces
electromagnetic waves or light.

40. Optics 
Many properties of light are properties of waves, including
reflection, refraction, and diffraction.

41. The Michelson-Morley Experiment 
In 1887, an exquisitely
designed measurement of the earth's motion through the ether results in the most brilliant failure in scientific
history.

42. The Lorentz Transformation 
If the speed of light is to be the same for all observers, then
the length of a meter stick, or the rate of a ticking clock, depends on who measures it.

43. Velocity and
Time 
Einstein is motivated to perfect the central ideas of physics, resulting in a new understanding of the
meaning of space and time.

44. Mass, Momentum, Energy 
The new meaning of space and time make it
necessary to formulate a new mechanics.

45. Temperature and Gas Laws 
Hot discoveries about the behavior
of gases make the connection between temperature and heat.

one, beginning with simple steam engines.

47. Entropy

With the quest for low temperatures came the discovery that all elements can exist in each of the basic states of
matter.

49. The Atom 
A history of the atom, from the ancient Greeks to the early 20th century, and a
new challenge for the world of physics.

50. Particles and Waves 
Evidence that light can sometimes act
like a particle leads to quantum mechanics, the new physics.

51. From Atoms to Quarks

into the future.
