<p style="font-size:xx-small;">logical sister -- 8-year-old Suci."We absolutely need more
calves for the population as a whole; we have to produce as
many as we can as quickly as we can," said Terri Roth,
who heads the zoo's Center for Research of Endangered Wildlife. "The population
is in sharp decline and there's a lot of urgency around getting
her pregnant."Critics of captive breeding programs say they often do more
harm than good and can create animals less likely to survive in
the wild. Inbreeding increases the possibility of bad genetic combinations
for offspring."We don't like to do it, and long term, we really
don't like to do it," Roth said, adding that the siblings' parents
were genetically diverse, which is a positive for the plan. "When your
species is almost gone, you just need animals and that matters more
than genes right now -- these are two of the youngest, healthiest
animals in the population."The parents of the three rhinos born in Cincinnati
have died, but their eldest offspring, 11-year-old Andalas, was moved to
a sanctuary in Indonesia where he last year became a father after
mating with a wild-born rhino there.The first coordinated effort at captive
breeding began in the 1980s, and about half the initial 40 breeding
rhinos died without a successful pregnancy. Roth, who began working on the
rhino project in 1996, said it took years just to understand their
eating habits and needs and decades more to understand their mating patterns.
The animal
, healthier, more successful lives, she said, and the act of
positive thinking can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. "If you think you're
more likely to get promoted, you're more likely to put in more
effort and work long hours," Sharot said.But this slightly distorted view
of the world can also be a weakness a person might continue
to smoke because they don't expect to get lung cancer, for example.
Being more realistic is important in some cases, Sharot cautioned.Physical
realityPhysicists look beyond the human mind for external reality, but even
that reality isn't absolute truth. Fundamental reality as scientists understand
it is based on quantum mechanics, a realm where all manner of
strange things occur. An electron can behave as either a particle or
a wave, depending on how one measures it. And scientists can measure
either a particle's position or its momentum at any given time, but
never both."Quantum mechanics is simply the best theory we've ever developed,"
theoretical physicist David Tong, of Cambridge University, says in the show.
But so much of this reality is by definition unknowable. Another physicist
featured in the show, Steven Nahn of MIT, says "I absolutely believe
reality is a real thing, but that does not mean we understand
it." Nahn was part of the team of scientists who found evidence
in 2012 for the Higgs boson, the particle that gives other particles
their mass.The universe may turn out to have more dimensions than
