Have you ever wondered why we see time move forward, but never backward? Are you uncertain about how time and space relate to each other? Do you wonder if there are other universes out there that are similar to our own? If so, you’re not alone. Physicist and bestselling author Brian Greene has been delving into these questions his whole life. You can learn about the answers and theories he’s uncovered in his new four-hour “NOVA” special, which begins airing tonight on PBS. The special is called “The Fabric of the Cosmos,” and it’s based on Greene’s book of the same name.
