Nobel Prize in Physics — The Science Behind the Prize

Each year, the Nobel Prizes shine a spotlight on discoveries and ideas that have reshaped how we understand the world and ourselves. Rooted in Alfred Nobel’s vision of rewarding contributions “for the greatest benefit to humankind,” the prizes recognize milestones that often began as bold questions, painstaking experiments, or courageous stands. Beyond honoring individual brilliance, they tell a larger story of human progress—how curiosity, creativity, and determination can transform lives, opening new possibilities for health, understanding, and peace.
