     5The Immortal Quantum: Following Energy throughout the Universe
     6
     7Energy is an abstract concept not directly tied to any observable, yet this quantity is the basis of all the physical sciences and of life itself.   Why is it so important?  How do we even define it?  Join me as we follow a small chunk of energy as it moves from stars to the Earth to humans, constantly shapeshifting but never losing its intensity.  We will see how energy is responsible for nearly all action in the Universe including how humans think, how plants grow, and how stars shine.
