For those with an interest in science and its impact on our lives, you would be well rewarded by listening to the 2023 series of Boyer Lectures given by Quantum Physicist, Michelle Simmons.  In a series of five lectures Michelle provides a very clear and simple account of what quantum physics is, the history that led to it, and implications into the future.  One is reminded as to how important it is to have the ABC providing all Australians with information such as this; well worth the 30 minutes for each episode.  You can watch the first talk on iView, or listen to all five on ABC Listen.
