Time itself cannot be manipulated only in the ways we record time. Images move at the speed of light,so therefore you can move faster than images and get far enough ahead to see yourself start the journey. Important too remember is your mass occupies the same space no matter the speed.

The fact that the movie makers came up with the black hole’s design using an mathematical equation and a visual software engine is amazing, and on top of that, some years later the first photograph of a black hole was taken, and it looks hella similar to the movie one. Just amazing!!!

[@futuretrunks3158]

Just suspicious if you ask me

[@MichaelOrtega]

@@futuretrunks3158 Not suspicious at all because the image of the black hole had been in the Works years before the movie was made. It wasn’t like they just all of a sudden decided to release the picture that they took yesterday….They were working on the picture of the black hole for a really long time. Even before the movie was released. And just so you know, the mathematical equation for the black hole came from Einstein. It’s just been revised many times to see if we could get more accurate descriptions of it over the decades. It’s just a computing power has improved tremendously over the last few decades to the point that now we can use math to reconstruct an image. Because science uses a lot of computers as well having the same advancement in computing power means that we now are able to do more in the real world not just Hollywood. There’s a lot of things that improve at the same time because of computing power increasing

Lemme explain it to you. The picture of a black hole they reconstruct, they could not do it earlier because (as that woman showed, said and collect it, and was major part of the project) of lack Of storage and computer/technology power. But finally they managed to collect, reconstruct and render image, and still it took a lot of time for computer to finish it. Technology is amazing

Time dilation is one of the craziest things our species has ever discovered. I remember in the original Cosmos series, Carl Sagan gave the example of twins experiencing time dilation in a thought experiment. One twin would be kid and the other would be a 50 year old man depending on the gravitational force enacted on each of them. It’s funny in certain areas of physics your mind just breaks down trying to comprehend some of these seemingly impossible realities.

[@xXxXcrosbykidXxXx]

@@msavage960 I partially agree with you but I think you're putting too much weight in just the intellectual side of the movie. The screen time actually exploring new worlds is pretty good, but a lot of world building is forced through rushed dialogue rather than being shown or made understood through proper storytelling. It plays like a movie that has about 30 minutes or an hour of scenes cut from the beginning and end, to appease an audience with a short attention span. I think Phil's criticism's are each entirely fair, and actually a pretty astute summation of the hype surrounding this movie. That said, it's entertainment, it doesn't have to be educational, and it doesn't have to be meaningful. What it does have to do is capture people's imaginations, which it does, and as a beneficial side effect, it seems to inspire at least some viewers to learn and understand some of the complex physics theories that gave birth to this fictional tale. Masterpiece is a strong word though, if objectively looking at some of the screen writing, storytelling, and special effects (particularly while in the ship going through the black hole. All goes pitch black at first, this seems logical, but then slow water droplets and sparks descend on a prop ship that's pretty obviously stationary on a sounstage.. and that's meant to represent the most mindboggling experience of human history?), it's kind of underwhelming really. I really enjoyed the movie, but there were also moments that made no sense and completely took me out of the experience, and back in to a critical mindset. The whole thing should've at the very least been postponed when the girl who discovers the interdimensional gravitational message decodes it before the mission even takes place. That earth shattering revelation in not even given one second of consideration in the plot.. and that's not the only instance of rushing over what should be massively important plot building scenarios. I wouldn't go so far as to call somebody a douchebag, for simply trying to convey these factual criticisms in a straight forward sense.

The spinning of the black hole causes it to drag spacetime as it rotates which further increases the dilation. That fucker Phil Plait got that part wrong and was...gently corrected by Kip Thorne.

I see very few comments stating this. The time dilation is not because of the planet's gravity, but because of its proximity to the black hole.

The high gravity of the black hole along with the high speed creates the time dilation.

Yeah a shame the video missed this. An easy way to imagine it, is that the astronauts on the ISS experience weightlessness, however they experience the same gravitational time dilation regardless. This is because they are in orbit and the same gravitational force is acting on them. The planet in interstellar is like the ISS in this case. The astronauts and the planet both experience the massive gravitational force of the black hole. However, since both are accelerating in the same orbit, the astronaut only 'feel' the gravity of the planet. That being said, that orbit would be insane, so for the spacecraft to follow the orbit to land would be a intense process in itself. It kinda sucks that the video missed the ultimate conclusion of the discussion of why they experience that dilation.

"time" also depend on the vacuum of space, the lower the vacuum the longer it takes light/"time" to travel through it. Personal "time" can also be accelerated making the would around one appear to be stationary. Once humans figure out how to merge mind and machine together "time" can simply be a control device as is a Gas Petal.

[@atuttamrakar8520]

A simple definition of time dialation: the faster you are moving through space, in other words, the closer you are to the speed of light, the more time slows down for you. If you are moving exactly at the speed of light, time will completely stop. And if you are moving faster than the speed of light, time starts to go backwards. Let me give a simple example: imagine you are racing a guy named "Time" who is always driving at the constant speed of 100KM/H, neither faster nor slower. You are behind him at the speed of 60KM/H. If you lower your speed it will seem like "Time" is going faster even he's at the constant speed of 100KM/H. Now if you increase your speed it will seem like "Time" is slowing down and when you also reach 100KM/H, you and "Time" will be in the exact level, both of you being still on each others perspective. Now if you increase your speed even further to 120KM/H, "Time" will go behind you.

@USERZ123 sure, practically speaking, it’s not feasible to actually experience this feature of the universe. The movie contrives a situation where apes would adventure through the vastness of space to a place experiencing extreme gravity and then later return to their point of origin (the Solar System in this case, I’m aware Matt Mac isn’t show returning to earth itself). The point is that: if we could do this thing - survive it - and that planet had the requisite level of gravity to produce the stated time shift, this is precisely what would happen. Relativity isn’t just pure mathematics like some of the comments here suggest. It has been proven experimentally every single day for a century now. When that guy talks about redshift - that’s real time dilation we can see with telescopes. We don’t need to actually experience it to see it happening - astronomers and astrophysicists see it happening every day in the form of red shift. Relativity is among the most bullet proof areas of our scientific knowledge. If relativity suddenly stopped working no one’s life on this planet would be remote similar to what it is today. It was only with relativity that we were able to flesh out our knowledge of elementary particles, develop the standard model and quantum electrodynamics. It’s not just the GPS example that gets posted in the discussion - it’s all integrated circuits. Every single IC in the world is experimental proof of relativity and quantum physics.

I was under the impression that the effects of time dilation were coming from the proximity of Miller's Planet to Gargantua not Miller's Planet itself.

Just like of you were traveling near the speed of light but space is moving not you... In a sense. But if you were to fall in, moving at the same rate as space falling in, time dilation doesn't occur. Just my idea of how time dilation might work.

[@30AndHatingIt]

Slightly off topic, but I wanted to share this. One day, I was just browsing KZbin when I saw a video with Carl Sagan in the recommendations on the right. I don’t know why I clicked on it, because it was totally unrelated to what I had been on a run watching. Wound up being him describing someone from another dimension struggling to communicate with people in ours. A couple hours later, I noticed Interstellar on the lineup. I’d never seen it. Watched the movie and it basically got to the part where the main character is in another dimension struggling to communicate with his daughter back in ours. My hair stood up. I’m one of those people being pestered by the 1111 phenomena and when I looked at the clock at the exact moment that scene happened, it was 1:11. I had to walk out of the room, sometime this s**t gets violating.

We intend to make a video about randomness and coincidence, your story definitely stands out 🙌

0:40. They forgot to consider the time dialation occured during there journey to the planet. Time dialation is due the massive object present near the planet which is BlackHole. So while getting closer to the planet there time dialation has already started.

The more the mass an object has the more it will bend

I was looking for this comment

Exactly. This video seems to start out on the right track...and then switches to thinking that landing on the planet is when the extreme time dilation effect started occurring. The planet had very very little to due with the time difference. It was the proximity to the black hole. How close to the event horizon the planet was orbiting the black hole.

Thank you. I have been wondering that for a while now. We could never really time travel using gravity as the amount of gravity needed to have any sort of useful affect would indeed crush us.

[@saurinpatel6606]

Only way to archive time dilation for us is to faster near speed of light

[@shauneq]

The explanation of Gravitational Redshift in this video is great. It is the first time I really understood how gravity can affect time. I would like another video to explain, as simply and concretely, why speed affects time.

mass energy warps space time

In a physics class in college a professor described a light clock that bounced light each second. Imagine the clock going really really fast and now instead of light just going up and down it's actually travelling along the hypotenuse. Kind of a cool way to visualize time dilation

[@mensoamrojewel3326]

Another example of time dilation is when it comes to toilet. Inside the toilet person feels like only few minutes but from outside who's waiting feels like decade has passed.

When you're near a strong gravitational pull, it slows down your movements but it also slows down your thinking and perception. So for you everything looks fine and normal. But not for the person who is watching you from a distance with less Gravitational pull.
