I find it strange that there is a speed limit in the universe which happen to be the speed of light. The concept of speed limit seems very odd in a random world
@spiralsun12 жыл бұрын
It’s not random-light needs a finite speed so it can reflect, transmit, do stuff. That’s why there’s spacetime. A limit on probabilities, so god can think. When god meditates, universes are created.

Speed is less controlled wrt anything other than light.eg wind moves at different ,random speeds.Light is unique because it always moves at a fixed speed regardless of everything else.The speed of light is always constant , as discovered by Einstein.If you run towards an oncoming vehicle, it will reach you sooner so , in effect, you increase the vehicle's speed...but if you run towards light , it wont reach you any sooner (its speed is constant). Light speed happens to be the fastest speed in the Universe ,and thats why it is the speed limit.Interestingly , Space can move faster than light (in a blackhole, for example) but because Space itself moving , is distinct from moving 'through' Space , this movement isn't considered as faster than the Speed of Light.

Consider the inverse situation: If the universe had no speed limit, light could move infinitely fast. At infinite speeds, distance loses all meaning, essentially allowing events across the entire universe to occur simultaneously. If everything happens simultaneously and distance has no meaning, then time also has no meaning. Could such a universe even be said to "exist" if there is no boundary or distinction between its contents? Now you might rightfully wonder "Okay so there has to be some limit, but why should it be 299,792,458 m/s?". Unfortunately, I can't answer that for you. But what I can say about it, is that though it may seem "convenient" that the speed of light is just right to allow for quarks and atoms to form and aggregate into increasingly complex patterns which give rise to the beautiful and diverse array of things in our universe - that's actually a backwards way of looking at our situation. Here's an analogy I like to use: Some might claim that it is proof of intelligent design that the human eye is perfectly tuned for vision in the exact same part of the electromagnetic spectrum that the Sun provides peak output. You might already see through this flimsy logic: of course the eye is perfectly suited for the peak EM spectrum of the Sun, because we evolved in the presence of the Sun. Eyes that perceive the brightest light the Sun can produce will be able to see better and further, conferring a survival advantage which in turns allows that creature to survive to pass on its genes. Fast forward a few billion years, and you have a bunch of critters with eyes tuned for the environment in which they came to exist. Put another way, the mechanisms which give rise to eyes are sensitive to environmental conditions. Any adaptations which were not suited to those environmental conditions would be filtered out by the very nature of those mechanisms. Applying this same logic to the speed of light: Only entities that are consistent with the constants of the universe can come into existence. Though it may seem convenient from the perspective of one of those entities, that's only because we are standing at the end of a very long road, looking at all the twists and turns along the way, wondering how we conveniently ended up in this particular spot. But if we can only venture to places for which there is a road, then there's no mystery here; the universe couldn't have been any other way.

it is very likely that there is misunderstanding about Gravity too: gravitational mass = inertial mass Read what I have mentioned before about gravity regarding masses, it is a property in each particle, gravitational fields work independently on each particle regardless its location to other particles, that is why all objects fall at the same rate. gravitational mass and inertial mass have the same value because they are the manifestations of the same phenomena. Try to think about the interaction of gravitational field with mass on the planets and in the outer space and gravitational mass and inertial mass. There is essential points missing about mass, energy, speed, space, time and gravity. Gravity works at the core building blocks of this universe its is connected directly to space, time is just a side product of generating or actions on space "for instance when gravity effects space it effects time automatically", there is no time without space and calculations of space, you already do continuous calculations in your brain unknowingly to measure time as a result. time issue is more complicated than that because of the relation between energy, mass, gravity,… and the existence of two cycles, but building a better model will help to solve the main problems in physics.

Never understood the information paradox of black holes. Even if information falls into the "singularity", that singularity is still part of this universe, even if it's causally disconnected for (almost) ever (until the black hole evaporates). How could black holes evaporate if they were NOT still part of this universe?
@kenadams55042 жыл бұрын
The information paradox refers to the idea that information of the contents in blackholes "seems" to be lost from the Universe....this only "seems" to be lost.It actually isnt lost . A paradox is a "seeming " contradiction which is actually explainable.The explanation comes from the Holographic Principal which says that the info of the 3 dimensional objects that go into the bh is kind of "pasted" onto the event horizon of the bh. This "pasted info" is what radiates off the bh and remains after the bh dissappears (thus conserving the iformation from the black hole after it has dissappeared.) If u utube Holographic Principal and Science Festival there are some interesting videos about the details of this phenomenal process.

yeah all the starting angle of all triangles point to the same starting point of the bigger triangle "universe model" (the current understanding of space is incorrect) now rotate the triangles, I know that does not satisfy those addicted to bubbles, they shouldn't worry there are quantised balls to donuts and vice versa, they can rotate the circles those caused by rotation to generate bubble, the idea is not about the shapes whether cones or bubbles, it is about constants, infinity and space: think about the constant Pi in the cones and how they use it fo find a solutions for space and infinity then go deeper to planck's constant then to cosmological constant. it is important to understand constants and infinity to reach better understanding of space, solving the problem of space will open the gate and makes it easier to understand Gravity.

Ok, good point. That you shouldn’t trust most of your dreams and visions-especially if you can’t communicate them. Now you are beginning to understand. That’s the whole reason I figured things out from the beginning. Why I love science. Speaking accurately. I talk about this a lot in my first book. There is a definite answer to this problem-unequivocal. People don’t understand what inflation actually is but I explain it in my new book which explains living and conscious mater. I can explain the origin of life, matter, the universe, and yes Consciousness. We are not at step Zero. We have arrived. Hoop dreams and all that. Those are legit. 😂 Why do you think suns concentrate around black holes? That doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Even though it technically does 🤔🤷♀️ -but not of meaning, of actual significance. why do suns move faster as you move toward black holes? Because that’s how god speaks-with reality. That’s why there have been so many geniuses and inventions and wealth in recent history and walking on the moon. We are moving toward opening of the portal, the mouth of god on earth and stuff like that. Those inventions and wealth, etc. are only a glimpse of what is coming when humans understand what I write and speak. When the mouth of god speaks on Earth. It sounds crazy but it’s literally the only way to interpret the universe as a literary work and symbol-interface of god. I struggled a long time trying to resist the idea that it might be me to speak this since I literally have no ego. But when I tried, I nearly killed my friend because it drives people who can’t fully see insane-the conflict of older patterns and new. I can’t make anyone else be me-for their own sake. Because they have to go insane or be destroyed because they won’t see the whole and will therefore destroy the great work. (ie US). So it’s automatic. Once you see what the multiverse is and how it works, then it all makes perfect sense and you don’t even need much math to understand it. So the message to me is, if I love life I will accept responsibility for a life unique in time and space. A life where I was born to be me. A life no one else can live. I understand the universe. And I understand god. Loud and clear no static. God is in everyone and everything. They just don’t see it, but I do-and I will be damned if I don’t talk about it. So there. I just told you. 😂 Thanks 🙏🏻 Note that I spoke about god without question… because there isn’t.

They want to unify quantum mechanics and relativity without understanding space and time ! How through strings and bubbles ? No one can solve the mystery of Gravity without understanding both space and time. The storytellers said: Einstein did our job “keeping ruminating his work is enough”! I am pretty sure that if Einstein still alive he would disavow them. Science will never end or stop at anyone, it is a continuous hard work, Einstein was a real scientist, did his job, they have to blame themselves if they have minds, Einstein does not need storytellers to defend him, his work is more than enough to defend him, they make living by hiding behind the shadow of others! incorrect doesn’t mean it is is completely wrong! if Einstein theory is wrong it would not work, it needs improvement and correction, that will need understanding of space, that will take time, it is just a message for future generations “no one will take your job as storytellers” Einstein himself didn’t understand space and time, his theory does work because it described the side effects of Gravity. There is more work to do with quantum mechanics (both theories need correction and revision) There is a lot to do to unify both theories except understanding space. Do not worry it will take time, they think the next reliable theory in physics is easy! still a lot to do, solving the mystery of space will improve both physics and mathematics automatically. The problem of space must be solved, it is essential to make a real progress in both physics and mathematics. It is chaos, still a lot to improve and revise before the next generations be able to make any real scientific progress.

At 55:31 "Dream-run of fluky chemical reactions" is one thing. But that these fluky, life-essential recombinations persist across time, despite the forces of entropy assailing them from every direction, is quite another. The ability of life on Earth to *persist across time* provides its own evidence that the entire universe is predisposed to life, anywhere where the conditions are right. As it is over here, with all its predispositions, likelihoods and persistencies, so too it is over there, on Andromeda, Triangulum, Sombrero, IC1101 and Alcyoneus. Invoking an example of the absurd, if NASA researchers found cogs, wheels, pulleys, gears, nuts and bolts on Mars, then they would have no choice other than to conclude that some manner of advanced society once existed there. Well, the cogs, wheels, pulleys, gears, nuts and bolts of life are strewn throughout the cosmos in the CHNOPS of life. At 56:19 "But we have no evidence for it, and that's why I attach such enormous importance on finding life elsewhere in the universe." Given my preceding point, how much evidence do we need? How are we going to find evidence of life elsewhere in the universe, if we have not done so by now? I think we've done pretty well, thus far, to establish the cosmos-wide prevalence of CHNOPS, along with the incomprehensibly huge universe revealed to us by Hubble DeepField. In this light, the notion that we are alone in the universe seems to me to be illogical, and it is its proponents who are the romantics. I've been following and reading Davies since his first books came out decades ago, so his continuing to take seriously the notion that we are alone in the universe is not what I expected. On the matter of finding evidence of life elsewhere, it is unlikely to get much better than what we have. Consider the practicalities. Of the 100 billion stars in our Milky Way, the nearest is 4 light-years away, and evidence will require technology to get there, to take samples, and to return. Arecibo's transmission to GC M13, within our own Milky Way 25000 lightyears away, has a minimum ROI of 500 centuries - most of Arecibo's researchers and investors of 1974 will likely be dead by the time their investment yields the sorts of results that we might enjoy as evidence of life elsewhere. Good luck holding our breaths waiting for that to happen.

@@cripplingautism5785 You don't need THE genesis event. Genesis is ongoing because it reflects a fundamental property of matter. The persistence of life across time would not occur without it. If this were not the case, then in the extremely unlikely event that life would appear, it would vanish just as quickly. We can understand why only if we take entropy seriously. The basis for my thinking relates to third-power reduction, which relates to Geoffrey West's book Scale (2017). The dynamics playing out at the subatomic, atomic and molecular realms are very different to what our intuitions assume. No magic, no woo, just infinite possibility, liberated from newtonian-level constraints, having greatest access at the smallest scales.
