Neil deGrasse Tyson & Janna Levin Answer Mind-Blowing Fan Questions

Did you get your mind-blown during this episode!?

[@artistlovepeace]

No.

[@Bird0fPrey]

Thanks for watching!

[@MaoKatz]

[@anthonygordon9483]

Here is a question Neil. If the universe is accelerating, does that mean time relatively is speeding up too and we just dont notice it cause we are in the universe.

[@SajjadMoslehi]

Why is Chuck so sleepy this time?

[@NickBittrich]

I love how Chuck's self deprecating humor feigns ignorance but you know he is following every single line of quantum craziness with these intellectual heavy weights

[@michaelbraum77]

Chuck is a very brilliant guy!!! Don't let the comedy fool you!

[@SoapinTrucker]

Chuck is there to make me feel better cause well… i don’t want to be the only one who is confused😂😂😂

[@ccthemanchris314]

He was originally supposed to be the "average guy". How long does one have to be on a talk show about astrophysics before you are no longer considered "average guy"

[@DrakiniteOfficial]

He does such an amazing job at making the show more approachable, making viewers feel more comfy with basic concepts being explained to them. I'm certain that by now, he's got a way, way better understanding of science than he lets on.

[@navd1488]

Guys . We love the humor, but it would be nice if it was kept in between discussions. The number of times Jenna was interrupted mid sentence when she is explaining something important by both Neil and Chuck for some silly joke is astounding. It is easy to loose train of thought both for thr speaker and the audience. You can see this many times , specially when she is trying to explain how time is not a real spatial dimension

[@krasavishche4155]

Exactly!! And It is not only this episode 🙄

[@watchtowerdragon7098]

Unfortunately, that's just how this type of comedy works, it's an expression of spontaneously connecting two ideas in a cohesive manner... and is a bridge to innovative thinking required for sharing concepts as well as making discoveries.

[@KINGFAROOQ1216]

I have a hard time watching because of thís. I wish they were less goofy like high schoolers

[@HaiKaRoux]

Absolutely agree. Humor emerging naturally is great, engineered every five minutes in this type of setting? Not so much.

[@ezekielmajor5511]

Agreed. I love more serious conversations when it comes to science. I think too much joking comes in their shows. I went to see Neil when he came to Willow Grove, PA. I left the show because he and this guy were joking way too much. You could tell a lot of people in the audience got annoyed with it.

Dr. Tyson. It’s entirely possible that you’re unable to read the thousands of comments on your YT channel. Regardless, please allow me to preface my comments by saying that I have no plan to unsubscribe. I have been following it for years and have taken up quantum physics as a retirement hobby, which admittedly hurts my brain, and very much enjoy your guests on the topic. However, I have to state that your frequent interruptions of your guests are off putting, in particular in this case of Dr. Levin, who is very capable of explaining her profound understanding of her expertise. I’ve read one of her books (so far) and admire her ability to explain very complex issues to a scientific layman. On the other hand, Chuck’s more infrequent “interruptions” are moreso the result of genuine curiosity rather than one-upsmanship. His excitement is palpable and genuine. I hope that you will not take this as an insult to the platform you have created to bring the knowledge of physics to the world. Rather, I hope that you will accept my comment as an honest attempt to more fully add positively to showcase your wonderful guests. For those who follow this channel and are also a fan, please be kind with your rebuttals. ✌️

[@robertamerson3141]

Heck JC, just don't read the responses if you think they will bother you. I too think you have a valid point. You succinctly brought this point forward in an honest attempt to help EVERYONE here. Not for any only personal preferences or to get any kind of an Atta-boy. I too hope your bringing it forward might can be addressed to help everyone here.

I don't think anyone who spends time with The Tyson can pass themselves off as "uneducated." With all the years he and Chuck have hung out, The Nice could run his own show if he wanted to! If only Carl Sagan had a comedian to bounce things off of, it would have been the only improvement he may have needed. Who could have been that comedian? For some reason, my mind goes to Buddy Hackett. 😸

That is because its a new revelation in science. This is a break through in science that may or may not be right. It has to be tested and proven just like everything else its a hypothesis that need to be a theory to be proven. But yes this is NEW Science. The revelation you have is no different from the scientist that created the theory within the last 5 years

[@ToXllCMuSllC]

General relativity and quantum mechanics will never be combined until we realize that they take place at different moments in time. Because causality has a speed limit(c) every point in space where you observe it from will be the closest to the present moment. When we look out into the universe, we see the past which is made of particles (GR). When we try to look at smaller and smaller sizes and distances, we are actually looking closer and closer to the present moment (QM). The wave property of particles appears when we start looking into the future of that particle. It is a probability wave because the future is probabilistic. Wave function collapse happens when we bring a particle into the present/past. GR is making measurements in the predictable past. QM is trying to make measurements of the probabilistic future

[@billbillson3129]

Hey wow!! Nice thought/explanation!

[@OscarTheStrategist]

This perspective is very interesting, but it oversimplifies the complexities of unifying GR and QM. It overlooks the spacetime continuum's role, the current theoretical efforts like string theory, and the various interpretations of quantum mechanics beyond the Copenhagen interpretation.

[@tortysoft]

Oh, I like that. I think Roger Penrose would expand on that and say- at great distances when individual particles can have no interaction with any other particle, the scale of space collapses. What was a hot vibrating particle no longer has a reference against which it can be seen to be vibrating - so it becomes totally cold - totally organised.That is the state of Entropy swaps state when scale and relative position can not be measured. I'd like to add - information, the observation of any interaction, the structure of relationships is also scale dependent, like one H2O molecule is not 'water', but two of them may be able to interact AS water. They observe each other.

[@Sludgeman4life]

This is good explanation of why string theory is junk science

[@robr177]

Someone said to Einstein, "You have accomplished great things because you stood on the shoulders of Newton." To this Einstein replied, "No. I stood on the shoulders of Maxwell." This is an important distinction. You can still say he stood on the shoulders of Newton, but you should acknowledge that people like James Clerk Maxwell are in between. Einstein credited Maxwell for the basic ideas that led him to the theory of relativity and the famous equation.

Janna is the first guess I can relate too. The Quantum world makes me question the nature of reality too.

[@Vaeldarg]

The fault of that is more from physicists losing track of what is "reality" and what isn't. Especially the "is math invented or discovered" argument. Math is a language created to DESCRIBE reality. It isn't reality itself. And so the continuation of that is how you have this "quantum wave function", which is just describing probabilities, being treated as reality itself rather than just a description of it. The grass outside is reality. The word "grass" is the description of that reality. The grass is real, the word "grass" isn't.

[@YivvaMedia]

@@VaeldargThat’s one interpretation but nobody knows yet what the true interpretation is. It could be that the wave function is actually what is there, and the particle only our way of describing it within spacetime accurately. We can’t assume either way.

[@Vaeldarg]

@@YivvaMedia Interpretations are not created equal, though. Science isn't about perfect explanations, it is about which one gets the closest. And so the further your interpretation is from reality, it means it is worse, not better. "It could be that the wave function is actually what is there..." except it can't. Because it's math written just to describe reality and not reality itself. It's a function describing statistical probability, and reality is under no obligation to go by how you describe what you think it is.

The existance of only one electron in the universe that simply runs back anf forth through time can explain a lot. 1) why they the same 2) problems of large numbers: in a universe with a mass of 10^56g approximatly 10^80 electrons and the ratio of the visible universe size to the electrone size exatly 10^40. That is just one layer to go back in time 3) the experiment with two slits is easily explained 4) positrons just electrons moving back in time 5) collision of electron and positron destruction of the loop. Therefore , there are so few of them for the whole structure to work.

#Question In the TV Series Star Trek Voyager The Borg open a “Trans-Dimensional Rift” which opened a “Gateway” to Species 8472 and when Voyager goes through that Rift they end up in “Fluidic Space” when Space isn’t really Space, it is Matter. So think of Space as we know it Only it isn’t “Space” it is filled with Matter (Think of moving through water like a Submarine) the Submarine is the spaceship and the water is Space. (Keeping in mind the “Multiverse” would something like that possible AND how would Physics work in that Realm?

[@helloukw]

Interesting question, but I doubt the rules of physics change that much or at all, even in said alternative universe. I think this multiverse theory is more like all the possible futures that spring from choices, like you in another multiverse are a dropout or you don't exist because your parents haven't met because of another choice someone else made. Don't take what I say for the correct answer, but only of what I understood multiverse to be. Or to not make it about people only, because we are not that important, lets say the life didn't evolve on Earth because there were no meteorites, because lets say Jupiter pulled them and formed some Jupiter moon. (just babbling at this point, but lets hope you get what I'm saying)

[@TBirum1]

@@helloukw Yep I get what you are saying. In a Star Trek the Next Generation Episode Data says something along the lines of a Theory that everything that *CAN BE* actually exists (I'm paraphrasing) In essence every choice you make spawns different outcomes in other universes. Example, You are on your way to work and as you get to your car you realize you left your coffee on the kitchen table, do you go back and get it OR decide to get a cup from the Vending machine at work, OR go through the drive through of a Dunkin Donuts? In the Multiverse ALL of those scenarios get played out. If you go back to grab your coffee off the table you are now 1 minutes behind the other two "You's" and being behind by 1 minute means as you are driving through an intersection at the exact moment a drunk driver T-Bones you killing you. The problem with that type of Multiverse is there are 8 Billion people on earth and each person makes a couple of hundred decisions each and every day, SO you would have like 100 Trillion "New Universes" spawning every single day, so it just gets ridiculous to even try and comprehend "The Multiverse" But a Universe that is made up of "Matter" would (I think) have very different physics, I'll explain. In Space we have pockets of Matter (planets,stars,comets,asteroids etc etc) BUT in-between them all is the "Vacuum" of space, basically a "Void" NOW imagine that "Vacuum/Void" is filled with Matter (in the episode they use the term (Fluidic Space) Which is why I did the Submarine moving through the Ocean analogy Now let's say I'm outside and there is a canopy covering the entrance to a building that Canopy blocks the light in it's tracks, BUT now I'm swimming in a swimming pool that is outside I dive down and look up through the water, I can see the light as it is able to move through the water. Now in the vacuum of space light moves at 186k miles per second BUT light moves slower when moving through water as in the vacuum of space nothing impedes it, but water does (not much) but it does take light longer when moving through liquid, SO in a "Fluid Space" everything that moves through space would be interacting with Everything around it. A submarine "Displaces water" as it moves through it so in theory a spaceship moving through "Fluidic Space" would be dispersing "Space" The speed of light would be slower Everything would be interacting with everything within us "Sphere of influence" instead of "Pockets of Mass" in "Normal Space" there would be "Pockets of Void" in Fluidic Space??? I know I'm rambling but I think the physics would NEED to be vastly different just as everything ABOVE the Ocean operates quite differently BELOW the Ocean (Pressure, Atmosphere, Resistance) We have a working understanding of how OUR Universe works, I'm just curious as to how if instead of Vast Vacuums/Voids of Space, we had Small pockets of Vacuums/Voids in Matter.

Doctor Tyson. Some beetle do indeed look up! For just a moment please consider the navigational technique that has been discovered is being employed by the beetle species called Scarabaeus satyrus, aka the common scarab beetle. It apparently orients itself and directs its direction of travel by using the Milky Way Galaxy strewn across the night sky as its visual local map to keep its navigation true.

Neil. Loved this. One electron?? In a lay-by outside a pub in Wales, resting in a VW camper van after several beers in about 1996 a fellow physicist and I discussed what we called the Lorentzian. You will be very familiar with the square root of 1 minus u squared over c squared. This told our alcohol fueled brains that the photon experienced no time. In other words, ad absurdum, there only needed to be one photon in ALL of the macroscopic universe. I went on to write a program which integrated Dirac's Equation forward in time., and saw some interesting time recursive results in my programming... probably artifacts?? I was offered a studentship by several universities but for personal reasons I thereafter experienced a post graduate teaching degree, followed by an extended a trip to South Africa but I got bored so returned to attend a Masters in Microwave Physics followed by working for a research company in the UK. Meanwhile said mate AJ was working on his PhD at Imperial College with Superconductivity, some of his work had resonance with my research so we collaborated under the radar. AJ got his PhD and shortly after he died... what a great loss. All that aside... The Photon Experiences NO TIME. Discuss.

You should talk about the hypothetical design of Dyson sphere. The main intent is correct, collect as much of the “free” energy of the star to sustain your civilization. So a Dyson Sphere is one way to image it. But even for an advanced society, too many things would be a waste of resources and surface area to build a sphere. 1. If you wanted the centripetal acceleration to offset the sun’s gravity and create some artificial gravity; you would rotate it. But then only a ring around the inside of its equator would have gravity. Therefore the sphere would have to be constructed strong enough to resist the suns gravity and be built without the aid of rotation. There are just so many challenges that would make it impractical. 2. A Dyson swarm would be more likely. There is just a whole list of reasons why this would make more sense from a resource and methodical approach to collecting a stars energy. It would most likely be built at the smallest diameters to the star with orbits to collect the energy and have the obits that intersect each other be constructed at different orbital distances. Manufacturing and energy collection would happen at the closer orbits while O’Neil cylinders and Niven Ring’s would occupy the Goldilocks obits. Astronomical research and other scientific research would happen at the outer most rings and orbits. The Dyson swarm would make the most logical progression to encompass a star, but you would have to have the system actively correcting itself and avoiding collisions. All stray comets and asteroids would have to be controlled to prevent collisions. Otherwise you would have a Stellar Kessler Syndrome or Dyson Swarm Debris Cascade. Either way, with self replicating AI stellar orbiting modules. Even with our primitive understanding, you could envision turning a star system into a Dyson Swarm. I would NOT recommend a species to convert a habitable system like ours into a Dyson swarm. It would make more sense to turn a nearby red dwarf system into a manufacturing facility using an AI controlled Dyson Swarm.

Neil and this young lady have a reputation as experienced in this field for years. Im not sure if Terrances reputation has reached the level of being reputable. Considering us normal folks arent able to debunk him with our knowledge some see his theory's as true, maybe, i cant prove him wrong or right. However, some seem to have done just that. Yet again im not smart enough to say whos right so we go with, most generally the one that has proven to many as correct. Sorry so long winded here. Takecare

I used to love Neil deGrasse Tyson and this show. But once I found out that he wasn't willing to have this exact type of conversation with Terrence Howard when he reached out to Neil with the new science that he is bringing to light. Like you said Neil, even if you cant agree at the end of the conversation you could have at least agreed that more or better data could resolve the underlying issue. I really think that Terrence Howard has proven himself to be knowledgeable enough to be heard by the scientific community. And it is completely counter intuitive to simply dismiss ideas that are not considered 'mainstream' in the scientific world.

[@derekmaynard5619]

Science has always been based on facts that can be proven to or checked by other peers. At this point it would seem that his theory isnt provable or he hasnt shown it to be proven by people way smarter then us. We basically have to take the judgment of people smarter than us in this field as a conclusion for now. Its very possible that he will get his respect in the future, or he just tarnished his credibility.

[@derekmaynard5619]

One more thought, Terrance is extremely likeable as well as very knowledgeable. However wanting him to be right on the behalf of his likness can mudy anyones judgment. I mean no disrespect here and im also looking at this with less knowledge on of what Terrance speaks than what i can tell you have. Ive only seen a short video of another gentleman debating this with him on the Rogans podcast. At this point, like i said on my previous comment, its basically up to him to continue the work while proving it to be factually scientific. Thanks

In a way, gravity is a product of bending space. Space is a physical medium canvas, that matter is painted in. Because matter affects the shape of space gravity is a byproduct correlation [bending of space] verse causation [graviton]. I dont believe that particle exist. But neither is proven yet. But we have reasons to believe either is a possible answer.

@ 44:00 Jenna uses the image of a chord to explain the superposition of notes, and went on to explain how the multiverse theory is hard to reconcile with her view. But if I stay with her image of a chord as a superposition of notes, then the chord is of a finite time duration, after which the notes fall back into superposition (if I understood her correctly?). Can one transfer this to an answer to the multiverse existence question, where we in line with quantum theory accept that an observation triggers superposition, and that superposition is equal to a multiverse arising, and that we who observe this chord are part of the same version of that multiverse, but only for the time that superposition is maintained, after which the multiverses collapse. And if one imagines this happening all around us as a continuous series of parallel superposition/collapse, new superposition/collapse, all with different extents in time? Does this mean that one can also imagine that staged events (e.g. Trump's "famous" statement during the election that immigrants eat dogs and cats) manifest in a chord that creates a superposition of our universe, which becomes a new reality until everyone stops observing this chord, after which the alternative version of the universe collapses back? And can one then also say, conversely, that unless it is successful in making all people forget this, that version of the universe will continue to exist?
