If they exist in our minds, does that still qualify as existing somewhere and therefore these ideas are part of the universe. The folks over at Minute Physics take us on a very brief exploration of what the universe…

We don’t actually touch anything that we think we’re touching, nor does anything ever actually touch us. In fact, the various components of our own bodies are technically not even touching each other. It’s a hard concept to grasp, but the folks over at Minute Physics do a decent job of helping us make sense of it all in their most recent video: …
