Science And Faith Examined (SAFE) - "Why is the Universe Pythagorean?"

  • Caltech's Hameetman Student Center 1200 E California Blvd. Pasadena, CA, 91106 (map)

Missio sponsors Science and Faith events 2-3 times per year on the Caltech campus, and the event includes a free dinner (for members of the Caltech community), a talk , and time for Q&A and dialog about the topic.

Pythagoras taught in 500BC what science now affirms: that the hidden order of the universe can be expressed through mathematics. Why is the universe intelligible to us in this way?

Our conversation will start with a talk from Dr. Alexey Burov, a physicist at the Fermi National Laboratory in Chicago, where he is employed as Senior Scientist. He is a fellow of the American Physical Society, and the organizer and chair of Fermi Society of Philosophy.
