Math is understanding...

This is one of my favorite videos made about our limitations in general understanding. With the math and physics that have right now, it is possible to put a man in the moon, a robot on mars, have highly intelligent computers, self driving cars, etc. We have come a long way since we thought that the earth was flat.
With all those accomplishments and milestones in mathematics and physics, humanity is still missing many pieces of the puzzle in our understanding of numbers and even reality itself. The Continuum Hypothesis is one of those missing pieces. As today, it can not be proven to be truth, but also, can not be proven to false.  What a conundrum!
