Ask the experts your physics and astronomy questions, read answer archive, and more. ... The proof lies in two theories (now three) that are currently considered the most important laws in the whole body of science - the First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics. The First Law of Thermodynamics is really a prelude to the second.

Q: Just STARTERS? OK, OK, I'm impressed. So, what IS the second law of thermodynamics? Well, wait a minute, what's the first law? A: The first law is very simple and important but pretty dull: You can't create or destroy energy ... (Later we'll come back to those two tricky words "spontaneously" and "tends".) That's it,
