From Apples To Natural Units: The Physics Education Journey

From "apple, banana, airplane" to setting fundamental constants equal to 1? That escalated quickly! The bottom equation shows physicists' favorite trick: setting Planck's constant (ℏ), speed of light (c), and gravitational constant (G) to 1 to simplify equations. It's like saying "these numbers are too annoying to keep writing, so they're all 1 now, deal with it." This is how theoretical physicists cheat on their math homework. The real flex isn't solving equations—it's making them disappear entirely. And yes, this is exactly how Han Solo made the Kessel Run in under 12 parsecs—by conveniently redefining his units of measurement!
