Isn't physics awesome!

Atoms are not what makes up the greater percentage of our universe as is written in most textbooks. It's dark energy and dark matter.
What interesting about this is nobody knows exactly what dark energy or dark matter is! Michio Kaku does a great job in this presentation of summarizing the story of physics. Only 42 minutes and it explains so much. Very interesting. I love the story he tells when he was a boy building an experiment in his parents garage.
