From Mirada Global: A Strange Beauty

Here our latest offering from Mirada Global, a reflection on the beauty of scientific equations from Gabriel Ferraro:

This symmetry of the equations expresses something very deep about the nature of electricity and magnetism. In a way, each one of these phenomenon is the consequence of the other. One could say they express something, a fundamental property of matter which manifests itself in very different ways, yet symmetrical. That is also why we say that equations are beautiful. Simplicity and symmetry: two attributes that make what we call beauty.
