Annotation

Continuation of optional lecture NOFY016. The aim is to present parts of what we know about our world thanks to physics but also how we know it and what it may be for.

It will not be "chalk and blackboard physics" we will investigate the world around us by experiments, simple and sophisticated, historical and modern.
