The problem with dark matter and dark energy is that we cannot see it, we cannot measure it. There are calculations that tells us that it got to be there but we have no observations.

Do we understand these catastrophic events well enough, also distant supernova happened in a younger universe - denser, hotter, less metal rich

[@flyingpenandpaper6119]

Was dark matter/energy ever meant to be anything other than a placeholder?

Will they not be afraid that someone will take it against them that they got that award? Even without paradigm shift I already see hundreds of physics scientists not admitting to the weakness of evidence for standard model of cosmology.

Honest string theorists will tell you they do not even know what string theory is. Only brutal honesty can stop this loop of stupidity and dishonest science. This problem is even more prominent in the other scientific fields, the less 'hard' sciences. Paradigm shift is a terrible terminology created by Thomas Kuhn, which isn't appropriate here. For Kuhn the shift implies a newer interpretation that is not necessarily better at making predictions than an older one. This is why he cites Copernicus as example of a paradigm shifter because the heliocentric model was not actually superior to the geocentric model and it wasn't necessarily rejected either. Special relativity was also accepted rather quickly in the mathematical physics community, it was already being discussed few years before Einstein's plagiarized 1905 paper (of Poincare and Lorentz), Poincare who in particular had a more complete understanding of special relativity as spacetime symmetry, established constancy of speed of light years before Einstein, and extended it to all physical phenomena (Einstein only applied it to electrodynamics, as his understanding was only on par with Lorentz at the time). In this scenario, we are gathering more and more evidence that conflicts with the cosmological model. We have demonstrated the inaccuracy (and horrible statistical methodology) of supernovae data by these noble laureates that suggest existence of dark matter. This is not a paradigm shift, it is just scientific progress.

[@martinphipps2]

The thing about scientific consensus is that it is changing all the time. A new idea comes along and it seems so obvious that we wonder why we believed otherwise. The problem is that the general public is then confused. The general public would think that scientists are either right or wrong and thus if they weren't right then they were wrong and if they were wrong before then what makes them think they are right now. That is actually a good point but we don't want to throw out the baby with the bath water. A good example is singularities. Singularities come up a lot in physics. I had a religious person complain that elemenatary particles could not exist because if such particles are pointlike then all their mass would be concentrated at a single point and they would have infinite density and infinities in physics are nonsense. My response? "We know." It turns out that quantum mechanics actually simplifies our understanding of the universe. Particles are wavelike. They are spread out and not concentrated at points. The same logc should apply to the singularities in black holes and the singularity that presumably preceded the big bang. Physicists know that singularites are nonsense but the general public insists that physicists believe singularites are real. Similarly, I don't imagine physicists are too upset about the cosmological principle being literally wrong. It actually makes sense that at larger scales we would have larger structures. Why should the universe be exactly the same in all directions? That is boring. The cosmological principle is an assumption and why should we expect something we assume to be true to actually be true? Sabine doesn't meantion though about the fact that when we look at distant objects a billion light years away we are looking at how they were a billion years ago. Chances are the clumpy parts of the universe are even clumpier "now" because if their density is so much greater than the local density then gravity would cause their individual parts to move even closer together. Here in our local area we have Andromeda moving towards us. As Andromeda gets closer future cosmologists are going to see a local area that is clumpier and yet surrounded by empty space. Maybe the structure of the universe provides evidence that Roger Penrose is right. Perhaps there was a universe that existed before this one and the big bang happened in a universe that wasn't actually completely empty after all. The question would be whether or not such structures are consistent with inflation.

When a blackhole forms it looses it antimater, or matter charge and gains a neutral charge.

[@SpotterVideo]

The following proves Spinor Theory is correct. Quantum Entangled Twisted Tubules: "A theory that you can't explain to a bartender is probably no damn good." Ernest Rutherford When we draw a sine wave on a blackboard, we are representing spatial curvature. Does a photon transfer spatial curvature from one location to another? Wrap a piece of wire around a pencil and it can produce a 3D coil of wire, much like a spring. When viewed from the side it can look like a two-dimensional sine wave. You could coil the wire with either a right-hand twist, or with a left-hand twist. Could Planck's Constant be proportional to the twist cycles. A photon with a higher frequency has more energy. (More spatial curvature). What if gluons are actually made up of these twisted tubes which become entangled with other tubes to produce quarks. (In the same way twisted electrical extension cords can become entangled.) Therefore, the gluons are actually a part of the quarks. Mesons are made up of two entangled tubes (Quarks/Gluons), while protons and neutrons would be made up of three entangled tubes. (Quarks/Gluons) The "Color Force" would be related to the XYZ coordinates (orientation) of entanglement. "Asymptotic Freedom", and "flux tubes" make sense based on this concept. Neutrinos would be made up of a twisted torus (like a twisted donut) within this model. Gravity is a result of a very small curvature imbalance within atoms. (This is why the force of gravity is so small.) Instead of attempting to explain matter as "particles", this concept attempts to explain matter more in the manner of our current understanding of the space-time curvature of gravity. If an electron has qualities of both a particle and a wave, it cannot be either one. It must be something else. Therefore, a "particle" is actually a structure which stores spatial curvature. Can an electron-positron pair (which are made up of opposite directions of twist) annihilate each other by unwinding into each other producing Gamma Ray photons. Does an electron travel through space like a threaded nut traveling down a threaded rod, with each twist cycle proportional to Planck’s Constant? Does it wind up on one end, while unwinding on the other end? Is this related to the Higgs field? Does this help explain the strange ½ spin of many subatomic particles? Does the 720 degree rotation of a 1/2 spin particle require at least one extra dimension? Alpha decay occurs when the two protons and two neutrons (which are bound together by entangled tubes), become un-entangled from the rest of the nucleons . Beta decay occurs when the tube of a down quark/gluon in a neutron becomes overtwisted and breaks producing a twisted torus (neutrino) and an up quark, and the ejected electron. The phenomenon of Supercoiling involving twist and writhe cycles may reveal how overtwisted quarks can produce these new particles. The conversion of twists into writhes, and vice-versa, is an interesting process. Gamma photons are produced when a tube unwinds producing electromagnetic waves.

These "structures" don't represent a discrepancy in the expected homogeneity imo. They are just randomly clumped groups of galaxies bound by gravity at exactly the distribution we expect. Some scientists choose to view them as a "structure", that's fine, then they must view the voids of the same size as "structures" as well. For every mega cluster of galaxies there is a mega-void without them. Those "structures" don't require any new physics to develop nor a new model of formation, it's not restricted in the current model. Even 1/100,000 chance, if it were true, wouldn't make me bat an eye in a potentially infinite universe. Not saying the standard model is infallible but a couple swirls in my coffee creamer isn't enough to convince me i didn't stir it

[@michaeljorgensen790]

Ever since the discovery of the CMB I have often wondered if the differences we see within the CMB are indeed the differences at around 400,000 years after the big bang....or if some of those differences could be attributed to the distribution of matter that is currently in the path of those microwaves that are just reaching us now? Is the intervening matter causing a distortion effect like looking into a carnival mirror? And possibly those distortions are what we interpret as temperature differences 13.4 billion years old (if we assume the universe is 13.8 billion years old). It makes me wonder if we used super computers to correct for those "mass distribution" distortions would the corrected CMB look smoother...or just as clumpy? If a massive galaxy can create a gravitational lens effect that allows us to see what is behind it...it is reasonable to assume massive clusters of quasars and galaxies would also have this "lens" effect that could possibly effect what the CMB looks like. Or am I just thinking about this all wrong and the CMB is a perfect "snapshot" that needs no correction?

[@jamesweninger3679]

What I believe should have been done, was that when we realized the “axis of evil” problem of the CMB dipole aligning with the ecliptic and sun’s direction of travel, we should have known that there was a local component (explaining the alignment), but that the same structures appear elsewhere in the universe (explaining why the CMB is as homogeneous as it is). In other words, if the CMB truly belongs to the cosmological scale, then obviously it should be uniform. If it were due only to some local structure, that would explain the dipole yet not the fact that this background radiation is seen in all directions, and distances. Once you realize that microwaves are generated anywhere that a hot sparse plasma meets a wall of cooler gas and dust, and that we are in such a structure, then you see the reason for the dipole. When you realize that similar structures appear throughout the universe, you see why the uniformity. None of this though, is due to this being “background radiation from the Big Bang”. Doesn’t even match the original predicted temperatures of 17ish degrees. Another reason to expect that we’ve made a mistake somewhere, is that we interpret redshift as expansion on the scale of the universe, yet redshift as temperature when considering the CMB. The “hotter and cooler lobes” of the CMB are determined by differences in redshift of the peak radiation.

[@kevinwong6588]

The original predicted temperatures between 1948 and 1965 by Gamow, Alpher, Herman and Dicke were between 5-50k, often fudged or changed after the fact to adjust for new observations. Hoyle, McKellar, Burbidge et al. had a 2-3k range, right to where Penzias and Wilson would detect in 1965. Not surprisingly, dark energy in recent years has been cited for why the CMB temperature has been much lower than anyone predicted - the accelerated expansion results in a diffuse, cooler universe. And of course, it was such an embarrassment when dark energy was announced in 1998, but for mainstream cosmology, it has become a critical lifesaver: without dark energy, the universe cannot be older than 10 billion years, much younger than the oldest known objects, meaning no big bang without dark energy.

It is difficult to contemplate that almost 3/4 of the Universe is made of something that does not interact or be detected, like the ether when they were discussing the speed of light. I think we don't have a complete understanding of gravity.

[@peppermintgal4302]

Well, it's not necessarily that dark matter is weakly interacting, but that it's simply the case that something is holding some galaxies together when they *look* like they should expand to a much larger size. It could be that there's literal, normal matter we're not seeing, for mundane reasons. It could be that the "thing" is a phenomenon, like... some quirk of gravity we don't know. But it could, indeed, be that there's something wrong with the math we use for gravity.

That's essentially what the Western type of cosmology has been doing, clinging to its dogma of the "Big Bang". Soviet astrophysicist Victor Ambartsumian already in the 1960s pointed out that one cannot assume a homogeneous Universe and therefore cannot extrapolate a "beginning". Nevertheless, you'll still be seeing many stubborn cosmologists defending the "standard" model for years to come, until it becomes impossible to disregard empirical evidence.

Huh, I guess I thought the cosmological principle was that the laws of nature don't vary across the universe. It seems a bit weird to base it off of matter instead. Why not at least use density of energy? Is matter really that special?

[@marlonbryanmunoznunez3179]

I think the reason they look for that is because regular matter is more easily detectable by us and we have a nice understanding of how it behaves. If it doesn't follow our deductiond is indication of other factors unknown are impacting regular matter. That's how dark matter was discovered after all: gravitational anomalies altering the movement of regular matter that didn't fit models.

Wow, fantastic explanation, thank you! I have also long been intrigued by the (non-constant) speed of light and I still view c as a maximum (in our area of the universe), not as an absolute. Fiber optic cables e.g. have up to 40% slower transfer than through a vacuum. How can we be sure that light travels at max speed throughout time and space? Is it conceivable that there might be parts/times of the universe where light is propagating slower than is assumed? Light from a distant object might have been uninterrupted for x amount of space reaching us at close to c, or it could have been diffracted more by denser parts of the universe or slowed down (even for a while) to appear further/faster moving. The non-uniformity you so eloquently described here reinforce my view that non-uniformity of the speed-of-light throughout space-time can also call into doubt other assumptions such as the Hubble constant, to name one. This can make a lot of scientific disciplines a lot more complicated, very quickly. A Newtonian to relativity kind of shift. Thanks again, great video.

Hi Sabine, what you said by 9:40 gave me some insight about a question that I imagined. I had sent the same question to another YT channel: " I'd like to ask you to imagine and comment when you have time, about the following scenario: imagine that there is a planet as big as Jupiter orbiting around a galaxy and such planet is the farthest one from the center of said galaxy and it spins on the same plane and its axis is parallel to the axis of the galaxy; then a stray star passes approximately tangent to that planet. If observations of said stray star were made from said planet, would there be any noticeable difference as for the redshift when the observation is made when the observer is on the surface turned towards the center of the galaxy and when the observer would be on the opposite side on the equator of that planet? " . Now another subject: imagine that in a space " perceived as flat ", vectors change very slowly like a Moebius tape, so that infinite space-time could be at the same time limited, like a bubble, but in a way no instrument can measure. How preposterous is such idea?
