Christopher Nolan & Kip Thorne Break Down The Physics of Interstellar | TIME
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
Director Christopher Nolan and author Kip Thorne speak to TIME's Jeffrey Kluger about the physics of 2014 blockbuster Interstellar. There’s no arguing about the blockbuster status of Interstellar, director Chris Nolan’s latest box office phenomenon. But plenty of people are debating the science component of that sci-fi tale—which is how it always is when a movie based in something as non-negotiable as physics has to take just enough liberties to make the fiction part of the story fly. Nolan was determined to keep his narrative scientifically honest, which is why he signed on as technical adviser celebrated Caltech physicist Kip Thorne—who literally wrote the book on (much of) the movie’s cosmology. TIME’s Jeffrey Kluger sat down with Nolan and Thorne to talk about human curiosity, the art of sci-fi filmmaking and the one time the two of them locked horns over a plot point.

Imagine Mr Nolan and Zack Snyder having a conversation about filmmaking.
-
are those rainbow socks :) ?
-
Well Nolan, thanks for giving a physics class but now explain why you wear so striking socks
-
Nolan would be a great Bond villain. Has that look haha.
-
I like Mr.Nolan movie forever.
-
No more half measures, Christopher.

Loved how Christopher Nolan deftly and savagely countered the interviewer's prompt about Physics and Cosmology being irrelevant to people's lives, what a very superficial perception it is. Physics is the most fundamental discipline and it never was, is, and will be irrelevant wherever you are in the cosmos. Without the laws of physics life (biology) and all its shenanigans (history, economics, humanities, technology, politics, etc) will not be possible.

"the universe when it (inaudible) expands faster than the speed of light. The distantly separated regions that communicate with each other, are moving faster than the speed of light, relative to each other and it is the speed limit that applies when you are in a region so small, that the warping of space and time isn't important" -Thorne. @3:11, the interviewer was like "WTF did he just say?"
-
This jacket... it's from T2!
-
I get confused on the scenes with matt damon. Seriously, I got so confused on whether it is the martian or intersteller that had a person pushed down the hill..
-
Chris Nolan, your daughter called and said quit wearing her socks.
-
Kip looks like heisenberg from breaking bad season 20
-
nolan is michael bays fan
-
people travel faster than light, wow. i thought nolan was smart
-
nolan looks likes a physics professor, while kip looks like a biker!
-
What about the alcubierre drive? I was hoping to see that. Just use "received alien plans" like contact.
