00:00Let's recap.
00:01Ordinary crystals repeat in space.
00:03In 2012, Frank Wilczek proposed the idea of repetition in time.
00:07Time crystals.
00:09Skeptics responded with the no-go theorem.
00:12No perpetual motion in equilibrium.
00:14But physicists found a way.
00:16Systems out of equilibrium with external energy input
00:20where oscillations settle into a period of their own.
00:23The first demonstrations appeared with ions,
00:26then in diamond and quantum computers.
00:28And now, in 2025, the discovery in liquid crystals.
00:32A space-time crystal formed from solitans visible under the microscope.
00:36It doesn't break physics.
00:38It doesn't provide infinite energy.
00:40But it brings a new phase of matter,
00:42a tangible proof of order, both in space and in time.
00:45The story of time crystals is far from over.
00:48We don't yet know all the applications,
00:50but one thing is certain.
00:52Matter can organize itself beyond our everyday experience.
00:56Not just in space, but also in the rhythm of time that they choose.
01:01This was today's video.
01:03I don't sell such time crystals as pendants
01:06that will heal you from diseases and protect you from evil.
01:09I'm trying to popularize science.
01:11If you also think this is useful, please visit my Patreon page.
01:15There, I will be able to answer your personal science questions directly.
01:19And in addition, you will also contribute to the popularization of science this way.
01:23Until next time, I'm Cristian Presura, Fisica Apovestita.
01:26You're cool.
01:27All the best.
01:28Goodbye.
