--QUOTES FROM THIS VIDEO:
"In part I see you as part of a dying breed of people who are willing to go down with the ship for the privilege of commanding it as it's captain."
"I find that what's very disturbing to me is that the political economy of science means that fewer people are willing to make strong speculations, strong predictions, to explore things that don't give them the flexibility in case things that don't work out to say, well it could be like this, it could be like that."

It's going to be a horrible day when Roger dies. I knew he was old, I mean you just have to look at him, but I really never thought he was close to 90. Such a fantastic mind with such a connection to the human condition that he can describe such exotic concepts in a way that even an idiot such as myself can understand. He truly is precious

THE CLEAR, BALANCED, AND UNDENIABLE PROOF OF THE FACT THAT E=MC2 IS F=MA: E=mc2 IS F=ma. With the MIDDLE DISTANCE in/of SPACE AND the FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE in fundamental equilibrium AND BALANCE, a given PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) necessarily sweeps out EQUAL AREAS in equal times in accordance with perpetual motion AND the UNIVERSAL fact that E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is then CLEARLY proven to be gravity. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience, AS E=MC2 IS F=ma IN BALANCE. Importantly, BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. Time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity, as E=mc2 IS F=ma. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. Ultimately and truly, TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. TIME CLEARLY necessitates and proves (ON BALANCE) that E=mc2 IS F=ma, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Great. OVERLAY what is THE EYE in BALANCED RELATION to/WITH what is THE EARTH. Notice the black space of THE EYE. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. THE DOME of a person's EYE is ALSO VISIBLE. Now, carefully consider what is the semi-spherical, translucent, QUANTUM GRAVITATIONAL, AND BLUE SKY. Great. E=mc2 IS F=ma. It is CLEAR. The BALANCE of being AND EXPERIENCE is essential. What is THE EYE is ALSO the body ON BALANCE. Objects fall at the SAME RATE (neglecting air resistance, of course), AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Great !!! The EARTH/ground CLEARLY constitutes what is the FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE. Now consider what is the blue sky. The Earth is ALSO BLUE as water. Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. GREAT. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. Now, VERY CAREFULLY consider what is BALANCED BODILY/VISUAL EXPERIENCE. Great !!!! Time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves (ON BALANCE) that E=mc2 IS F=ma, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. (Accordingly, the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON matches it's revolution; AND the Moon is necessarily fixed or basically constant in it's form and shape.) "Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/AS what is BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. (Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE.) E=MC2 IS F=ma as what is the middle distance in/of SPACE in BALANCED RELATION to/WITH what is the FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. So, gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Great. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. GRAVITATIONAL force/ENERGY IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=MC2 IS F=ma. Beautiful. Ultimately and truly, TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. GREAT. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. A PHOTON may be placed at the center of what is THE SUN (as A POINT, of course), AS the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the speed of light; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Great. THEREFORE: E=MC2 AS F=MA CLEARLY PROVES (ON BALANCE) WHY AND HOW THE PROPER AND FULL UNDERSTANDING OF TIME (AND TIME DILATION) UNIVERSALLY ESTABLISHES THE FACT THAT ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY: A PHOTON may be placed at the center of what is THE SUN (as A POINT, of course), AS the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the speed of light; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Indeed, the stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. E=mc2 IS F=ma. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is GRAVITY, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. Indeed, TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY; AS E=MC2 IS F=MA. Great. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. E=mc2 IS F=ma. (Very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black.) BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. I have mathematically unified physics/physical experience, as I have CLEARLY proven that E=mc2 IS F=ma in what is a truly universal and BALANCED fashion. By Frank DiMeglio

[@daltanionwaves]

Penrose is like the adult in the room (the room being physics) for studying an application of physics and math that correlates to the real universe, and real observations. While most theoretical physicists today would much rather explore applied fiction as a sort of art, because there are no wrong answers when it comes to writing fiction or creating art. So it's okay to dump all your hard problems, all your mathematical inconsistencies into a bucket called "many worlds". Even dark matter often serves as a catch-all sort of patchwork excuse to paper over the incomplete descriptions of behaviors in quantum and cosmological phenomena as they are tested or observed... And in the case of string theory, it's easier to complete a mathematical formalism if it doesn't have to be constrained by the real quantities of observation. The whole point of finger painting is that there are no wrong answers, there are no techniques, no rules of color theory that you must adhere to no matter what. And in my opinion, just because a finger painting turns out to be very beautiful, with great symmetry and proportions and so on, doesn't imply that it's a more accurate description of reality than a finger painting that is less symmetrical or beautiful. I think some physicists like Sean Carroll and others also sometimes fall for the temptation of another excuse -which is that quantum phenomena are fundamentally just strange, so they don't have to make sense" ... The obvious problem with that of course is that something can be strange AND make sense, it can be strange AND be consistent with observation. It's just a lot harder to solve real world problems than fictional ones... And because of things like this, theoretical physics is becoming more like an extension of the humanities, where it's more important to follow your feelings, where you are rewarded more for the creativity in your artistic expression than you are for solving currently unknown aspects of real physics.

@Justin Moore Elon Musk is a very poor speaker.

[@Sifar_Secure]

@Justin Moore The subjects Musk talks about are inherently interesting. Tesla, Space X and his various companies produce incredible feats of engineering. However, Elon Musk is a relatively poor speaker (certainly compared with these two). You impugned the work of Roger Penrose because he is extremely fluent when speaking in highly technical jargon, which is ridiculous. To accuse Roger Penrose of "lacking intellect" is the most stupid thing I have read in a very long time.

[@Sifar_Secure]

@Justin Moore I appreciate eloquence and precise language. I appreciate people who can articulate their ideas, especially when those ideas are complex. When somebody has a large vocabulary and is fluent in their speech a lot gets said and with more detail and nuance. You cited Elon Musk as a contrast to these two and he is not a good example of a good speaker. And as for "efficiency", Musk's speech has so many pauses and hesitations that it takes him a minute to say something which others can say in 10 seconds. And if you think that Roger Penrose is an obfuscatory charlatan then you clearly know little of the man or indeed the history of 20th century physics.

Check out 3Blue1Brown's quaternion explaination with stereographic projection. Instead of quatiernions, Penrose here decribes 4D space as being the same as C^2. C^2 is the cartesian product of two complex planes C x C. There is a popular diagram of C^2 where it is generalized in two dimensions. Every line in this diagram is actually a plane embedded in 4D space. If you take all of the "slopes" in this diagram of where they look like lines, this is just an infinite set of planes that all intersect at only the origin in 4D space. These planes intersect the unit sphere in 4D space along the sphere's hopf fibers. These fibers can then be projected stereographically to the entirety of 3D spcae.

For Humans, Existence seems to be that can be 'visually' represented by 3 orthogonal vectors + 1 inertial vector is a cognitive bias that merges by the belief that Existence is dependent on the observation from a single local observer ...

For an event in the past to affect you right now, the further back in time something happens, the further distance in space that event can be from you. It has had more time to reach you. So the cone is wider. Just as if you go forward in time, the further way things you can affect become. The cone has zero size now, and grows in space either direction away from you in time.

[@wulphstein]

String theory doesn't seem to be a contender for a quantum gravity theory because a quantum gravity theory has to answer the question: what is spacetime made of? Twistor theory is the closest to answering "what is spacetime made of". But it falls short because "twisters" cannot be experimentally detected or isolated. It is the same situation with Loop Quantum Gravity. Those loops cannot be isolated either. But it is worse than that. Neither of those theories are compatible with big bang expansion. You would expect that, whatever spacetime is made of, that such "atoms of spacetime" require an "expansion" parameter because the big bang "expanded" from a point. Someone needs to come up with a quantum gravity theory that answers the question: what is spacetime made of/what are the atoms of spacetime. I would suggest calling it, the Expanding Graviton. The Expanding Graviton has three primary characteristics. 1) Expanding Gravitons are the carriers of the physics constants. 2) Expanding Gravitons are equivalent to wave functions; thus wave functions and their operators are real things; and now they are a manifestation of gravitons. 3) Expanding gravitons expand spherically, at the speed of light, with radius r = ct. Where in physics have we seen something that looks like an expanding sphere? Two places. First, the derivation of time dilation. Second, two slit interference pattern. A proper quantum gravity theory should have an experiment associated with it. I would suggest that quantum entanglements between photons, are (Captured) Gravitons; it's not really an Expanding Graviton if it is captured between two photons whose positions can be controlled with optical fiber, lenses, mirrors, etc. I would also comment that it takes a tiny amount of energy to capture a graviton; if you add up all of the gravitons in the universe, then that number of gravitons multiplied by the capture energy of a graviton should equal DARK ENERGY. More importantly, if a quantum entanglement IS a graviton, then we can do experiments on it. Someone needs to create a quantum gravity theory that looks like the outline above.

18:29 The Higgs boson wave field would be formed or found inside the first sphere giving mass to all particles creating the curvature of space time (Lagrangian vector ) flat universe which could resemble a spiral galaxy.

@@AmericanJobsFactory No, his equations and models are spot on. "Vortex Math" has been around since before twistor theory LOL And seeing the time it was published; I would guess he copy-and-pasted Ken Wheeler's Field Theory and has a good understanding of the Fields that make up the universe. Tesla, Walter Russell, Charles Proteus-Steinmetz, Moray, Pointing, Faraday, JC Maxwell, and Westinghouse all published and thoroughly understood vortex math and the Fields that control it.

[@dsm5d723]

Most of the abstract areas of Academia are filled with narcissists; Eric has something of a pure motive, or so I choose to believe. "Fundamental description of reality?" Sorry, but a mix of the Rebel Wisdom of Tesla and the field theory questioners and the Universal aspects of academic mathematics and physics yields the most useful, but not profitable to academia, answers. Elon makes a car so you don't have to drive, but a Tesla house, using the physics of cellular automata to harness both wind and EM/radiation via solar panels and nano turbines, inside the same permeable outer membrane, solves free domestic energy. Just try to get tickets to Burning Man, and don't remember what your parents were sold. Bro economics will end society, but keep talking abstract academic math to entertain, mystify and perplex. And earn clicks from all the dumbfounded dipshits. When I looked in on Bret and Heather's first live streams, and studied along at home, I found the audience to be too dumb to interact with (I was mostly searching for an active and informed imagination), and they had to keep an audience in the first place. Lonely place to think.

[@AndreaCalaon73]

Complex numbers are no more esoteric than planes. Roger should have a look at Geometric Algebra and Geometric Calculus. QM needs complex numbers only because it needs to describe the plane of spin (Zitterbewegung), in all equations: Schrödinger, Pauli and Dirac. Roger should have a look at the real spinor formulation of Geometric Algebra. Cheers!
