You are a Simulation & Physics Can Prove It: George Smoot at TEDxSalford
Astrophysicist, cosmologist and Nobel Prize winner George Smoot studies the cosmic microwave background radiation — the afterglow of the Big Bang. His pioneering research into deep space and time is uncovering the structure of the universe itself. He has also made a cameo appearance (as himself) in an episode of the 'Big Bang Theory.'
George Smoot looks into the farthest reaches of space to the oldest objects in the known universe: fluctuations in the remnants of creation. Using data collected from satellites such as COBE and WMAP, scanning the cosmic microwave background radiation (a relic of the heat unleashed after the Big Bang), he probes the shape of the universe. In 1992 he and his Berkeley team discovered that the universe, once thought to be smooth and uniform at the largest scale...

George Smoot - What Can Science Say About God?
Most scientists believe that science can say nothing about God other than to show that there is no need for such a being. Scientists claim that science is quite capable of providing most explanations today and virtually all explanations in the future.

George F. Smoot III - Are the Laws of Nature Always Constant?
The laws of nature or physics are assumed to be everywhere the same, on the far side of the universe as sure as on the far side of your house. Otherwise science itself could not succeed. But are these laws equally constant across time? Might the deep laws of physics change over eons of time? The implications would be profound.

"Time travel requires cosmic censorship." George Smoot, 2006 Nobel Prize in Physics
http://www.nobelprize.org/podcast/ http://tinyurl.com/iTunesNobelPrizeTalks
How big is the universe? And how do you stay grounded when working in the mind-bending field of cosmology? In this conversation George Smoot, 2006 Physics Laureate, talks about how science today is a truly global enterprise, and explains how he ended-up pitting his wits against 10-year-olds in the television game show 'Are you smarter than a fifth grader?'.

George F. Smoot III - What is the Large-Scale Structure of the Universe?
Galaxies and clusters of galaxies, untold billions of them, adorn the cosmos. How did such large-scale structure of the universe come about? The universe started as a hot soup. What stirred the soup into the vast ensemble of breathtaking objects that populate the universe? What was the process that formed galaxies and stars and planets?
