Neil deGrasse Tyson & Matt O’Dowd Discuss Their Favorite Scientific Discoveries

Is space infinitely stretchable? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Chuck Nice explore fan grab bag questions about supermassive black holes, Planck lengths, and the gravitational wave background with extragalactic astrophysicist and host of PBS Space Time, Matt O’Dowd.
Neil and Matt compare notes on science communicating on the internet. Learn why Neil would choose death by black hole and how falling into a supermassive black hole would be different from falling into a regular one. Could you communicate what happens on the inside?
Learn about the discovery of gravitational lenses, quasars, The Einstein Cross, and whether dark energy is changing over time. Will we find out what dark energy is in our lifetime? Could we zoom in on matter indefinitely? Is there such a thing as the smallest particle? We break down a Planck length, cosmological inflation, and whether space is infinitely stretchy. What happens to all the gravitational waves? Discover the gravitational wave background, how to find it, and what it could tell us about the universe.
Is there a correlation between the space compressed by black holes and the rate of expansion? We also discuss the mystery of the early universe uncovered by JWST. How do supermassive black holes form? Do we have any black hole clusters? Learn how NuSTAR will help us track the movements of black holes. Plus, does every object have an event horizon?

I'm trying to sound the intelligence is that like a $200 word that's what I call those words because it's probably what you spent to learn it in your United States or wherever you go education system where you actually have to pay to go to university where is here where I live you you get to go to university for free as long as you make the greats. My University education is primarily from the United States so I had to pay but I've also taking classes now here which were free so I'm not sure I had some scholarships so I didn't have to pay so much money so I don't know...Vapid?!? I think he's really cool actually and he's super nice and he's learned an enormous amount since he started and it really shows that anyone can learn and master very complex astrophysics for example. You don't have to go to university in order to accumulate the knowledge that he has over the time that he's been co-hosting this show and I think it's a real interesting to watch his Evolution and his own ability to think abstractly at that high level.

[@AproposOfWetSnow]

My theory on dark energy: Our universe is a black hole in another universe, its gravity is drawing in time and space (much like blackholes draw in matter) from the outside universe, and at an ever increasing rate (more mass, the faster it collects). Dark energy is simply our universe collecting the outside universe's time and space, which causes our bubble/universe to expand.

Sounds like a legit theory to me, thought provoking for sure.

Not a new idea, part of the reason for all the research around Black holes. Also part of the idea of the multi-verse. Since the laws break down, we don't really know what applies. So, this very much could be the case until proven it isn't. Love the human imagination.

The great thing about multiverse/exoverse theories is that they depend on stuff that's outside the universe, our capital-U Universe, which contains literally everything that is observable - so you never need worry about someone disproving it.

Just watching the interaction between Neil and Matt show how much Matt knows and is respected by the fact that Neil interrupts him less than most other guests. This was really interesting - two of my favourite astrophysicists. I'd love to hear more alternate explanations about space time expanding and how the unexplained energy and matter that we call "dark" could be explained by other theories? My favourite area of theorising, though, is quantum gravity caused by non-commutative geometry and how it might be detected by combining gravitational wave observation with gravitational lensing observations. NCG seems to me more intuitively correct than LQG and CDT and obviously ST which is just maths driving physics.
