Though he had the respect, almost awe, of his colleagues for his scientific abilities, he also possessed a rare ability among scientists to communicate and explain abstruse scientific ideas to the public.Credit...Tamir Kalifa for The New York Times

A physics giant died, Steven Weinberg, who found out the weak force and electromagnetism were actually the same, helped to create the Standard Model to determine, in part, how reality works.







His philosophy regarding science and its connect to existence is profound and unsparing.
