Time DILATION ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that E=mc2 IS F=ma, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. SO, the Earth is fully time dilated ON BALANCE. What is the Earth, what is the Sun, and what is the Moon are governed by E=mc2 AND F=ma IN BALANCE in accordance with the necessary condition that this does then involve what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. What is the Moon is moving AND not moving (IN BALANCE) in relation to both the Sun AND the Earth, as invisible AND VISIBLE SPACE in fundamental and UNIVERSAL EQUILIBRIUM and balance explains why E=mc2 IS F=ma; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity.

Alas, what is THE MOON is a linked AND BALANCED opposite in relation to the Earth AND what is the Sun; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Accordingly, the Moon remains the same (or basically constant) insofar as it's rotation necessarily matches it's revolution. Indeed, the SPACE that the Moon occupies is understood as being FULLY formed/manifest. The motion of the Moon (thus defined) FIXES, defines, or encompasses RELATIONAL motion. The relationally VARIABLE EXPERIENCE of what is THE EARTH/ground is thus directly comparable to what is then understood as the INVARIANT form of what is the Moon (ON BALANCE), AS E=MC2 IS F=MA.

[@frankdimeglio8216]

WHY ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY: Gravity/acceleration involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. This is consistent WITH F=ma AND E=mc2, as gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. So, inertia/inertial resistance is proportional to (or balanced with/as) gravitational force/energy; as this balances AND unifies ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy AND gravity; as this balances gravity AND inertia. In other words, GRAVITATIONAL force/energy is proportional to (or balanced with/as) inertia/inertial resistance; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy IS gravity. Accordingly, gravity/acceleration involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance; as gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. It is proven.

Good job of explaining radiation. You are correct about the complexity of radiation safety. I was the radiation safety officer for three companies. While you can predict the effects of an acute high level exposure long term effects of an exposure for an individual is unpredictable, yet statistically significant for a group of individuals receiving a similar dose. Probably the worst thing for an individual is a long term low level dose from an ingested substance. Smoking is one such ingestion mechanism. Radon in the smoke is deposited in the lungs as a radioactive isotope of lead. Body tissues are exposed continuously to low level radiation, many individuals then develop lung cancer. And that is an over simplification. I have seen the whole body radiation counts for smokers, their lungs "glow" bright!!

I have been exposed to radiation in high doses, additionally my x wife also. My x wife developed Graves disease as mentioned by Sabina here, and she did take the radioactive Iodine pill and it worked flawlessly. On a side note, they typically give you the option of actual surgery to remove portions of your thyroid gland however this surgery is very risky and has potential of significant morbidity. I had a very large pituitary tumor that surgery was unsuccessful at removing and so I had radiation treatment to render it inert. The technical term for the treatment I received was fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy treatments over 30 days once per day. I will say, if you are exposed to beams of proton radiation in your head you can feel it hitting you and it manifests as a bright blue light, sorta like a cross between the blue of lightning and a tanning bed. When I received a blast of this radiation I could feel it hitting my forehead or the top of my head or back like someone pointing a garden hose at me with blue light pouring out. The oncologist explained to me that an outside observer does not see the light , it's the radiation hitting my optic nerves and "inducing" the perception of bright blue light. the treatment I received was from a system called Novalis Tx and it saved my life.

while I was being treated with radiation I was given high doses of steroids, Prednisone, to combat the swelling of my brain. after it was completed most of my hair grew back except for a round spot sorta in top back but not in the normal spot men lose their hair at. for about 2 years after I experienced face blindness, loss of long term memory, adrenal insufficiency crisis and behavioral changes. My pituitary is basically a empty husk laying at the bottom of the sella turcica so I must take all the hormones normally induced by the gland, thyroid, cortisone, testosterone. I struggle with depression and pain as replacement of cortical steroids orally doesn't come close to how the body manages it via the HPA axis. The years of having a bi producing tumor over 3 cm caused me to have metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes, but surprisingly my eyesight is intact with no noticeable damage to my optic nerves.

[@konstantinparchevsky2031]

Sabine, thank you for your nice explanation. I am a physicist, and what immediately caught my attention (I almost spilled my coffee) is your definition of radiation as "energy transfer by waves or particles". Actually, I never bored to define for myself what "radiation" exactly means, because every time it is clear from the context what I am dealing with (sometimes to remove the ambiguity we use word "radiation" in combination with other words like "electromagnetic radiation", "acoustic radiation"). But, if we decide to define radiation, I would exclude "particle" from this definition. Otherwise, you cannot distinguish between radiation and convection, or you have to admit, that electric current is radiation (because in both cases energy is transferred by particles). We do not want to climb this rabbit hole.

[@stargazer7644]

Then you'd have to exclude neutrons and alpha and beta particles also, which most certainly should be included.

[@SpeedOfDarknesss]

I was surprised by this definition too. Tbh I had always assumed radiation was a shorthand for electromagnetic radiation in most context. And occasionally it also included fast moving individual particles like cosmic rays, alpha particles, etc. Then I googled the definition and it doesn't seem very consistent 😂

13:20 *Radiation hormesis* sounds like a variant of "what doesn't break you makes you stronger." That idea works in many other cases-vaccines, physical exercise, tanning-up to a point. But it's too easy to get over-motivated, push boundaries, and end up with paralytic poliomyelitis, torn muscles, and carcinoma. Playing around with radiation is particularly dangerous. Talking about (nuclear) radiation or nuclear energy always causes a strong reaction in me. Images of Marie Curie, Eben Byers, Richard Feynman, Litvinenko, Chernobyl, Fukushima, Hanford Site etc. flash in front of my eyes forcefully and involuntarily.

Lovely video but you failed to mention two common things people should hear. 1. Some exposure to sunlight is desirable. Sunlight causes the body to generate Vitamin D. Many people in northern latitudes are deficient in vitamin D, especially during the winter. 2. Photons with a wavelength greater than 100nm (UV-C) are non-ionizing. They don't have the energy to damage molecules directly. That means optical light, infrared light, microwaves, cell phone signals, and other radio emissions are non-ionizing. Any photon source can cause harm in large enough quantities, but the mainly through heating. A microwave is a heat lamp that emits lower power photons on a longer wavelength that we cannot see. Cell phones emit lower power photons than a keychain LED flashlight. I really enjoy your videos. After recently discovering this channel I have been watching your older content almost daily.

Thank you, Sabine! Radiation hormesis is exactly the term I needed to explain the difference between a younger and older stellar environment. I believe that as our Sun and Earth age there will be less radiation hormesis. I predict there will be less of a variety of living beings but the ones currently inhabiting the planet will become more stable and be able to have longer life spans. Radiation hormesis is a type of stimulation the can produce mutation but is also degrading to life. Good for a young solar system but is less ideal for a mature solar planet.

[@eljcd]

This video is a nice introduction to what radiation is! Thorough, stuctured and nicely exposed. Note how careful is about not mix radiation with radioactivity, terms that get frequently confused. Looking forward for the lesson about radioactivity and nuclear power. Maybe with historical background? Röntgen, the Curies, etc. Thinking about those people playing around with chunks of Uranium, Cesium and others -iums, always make me shudder. Talk about martirs of science!

@@SabineHossenfelder I would suggest getting an RF meter that can measure 4g/5g. Place it up to the glass of a running kitchen microwave and then place it against your cell phone and make a call. I am getting about the same reading on a 4g phone and a 1200 watt running microwave. I think you will find much more to be worried about using an RF meter than using a Geiger counter.

[@karhukivi]

@@melgibson6331 Geiger counters measure ionising radiation, mainly beta particles and to a lesser degree alpha particles and gamma rays (which are high-energy EM waves). The "radiation" used in radio and so-called "microwaves", including the transmissions from 4G and 5G networks are below the infra-red band and only cause heating, not ionisation. A GM counter will register nothing from these. On the other hand, an X-ray will set a GM counter screaming! Sound is another form of "radiation" which simply means some form of energy spreading outwards. The engineers who work with RF circuits and high-power microwave devices like radar antennae have no health problems whatsoever, the greatest risk being a burn.

[@johnstonewall917]

@@SabineHossenfelder Start with ionisation chambers, they are much simpler devices and measre directly the ionising effect of radiation. The downside is that the output can be as low as a few thousand electrons per second, but this is not very difficult to measure. GM tubes are great but their operation is quite complex.

[@ReneKnuvers74rk]

Sound is often referred to as radiation by sound engineers. They talk about how speaker cabinets ‘radiate’ the sound. In multiple speaker arrangements the polar patterns resemble those of the double slit experiment.

When we moved into our first house, my P's installed central air so we didn't get radiation poisoning from the old radiators.

[@jjeherrera]

Regarding radiation hormesis, I know lots of radiation scientists, and as far as I'm aware, nobody exposes himself to radiation on purpose in order to increase his resistance to it. The idea makes sense in principle, and I remember I've seen some evidence in in-vitro experiments, but most of the evidence is cirmustantial, based on statistics of the health of people who are professionally exposed to radiation. The issue is that correlation doesn't imply causality. For instance, they may be healthier simply because they are subject to strict periodic medical check-ups, and this may help to detect illness at an early stage and treat them. It may also help to remove from the group those who are unhealthy.

The page Nexus of Physics has now given the following two writings the thumbs up on their page. ALSO consider this: E=mc2 is DIRECTLY and fundamentally derived from F=ma, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS time DILATION proves that electromagnetism/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. THE UNIVERSAL AND MATHEMATICAL PROOF THAT ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY: Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. E=mc2 is DIRECTLY and fundamentally derived from F=ma. GRAVITATIONAL force/ENERGY IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. SO, gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/as what is BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. "Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/as what is BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. THE SUN AND THE EARTH are described and represented by BOTH F=ma AND E=mc2. F=ma AND E=mc2 PROVE that ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY, AS ALL of SPACE is NECESSARILY electromagnetic/gravitational (IN BALANCE). Objects fall at the same rate (neglecting air resistance, of course), AS the SPEED OF LIGHT is RELATIVELY CONSTANT AS WELL. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY. In fact, the rotation of THE MOON MATCHES it's revolution; AS gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. So, THE PLANETS (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) are not "falling" in what is "curved SPACE" in RELATION to what is THE SUN. This is nonsense. E=mc2 is DIRECTLY AND FUNDAMENTALLY DERIVED FROM F=ma. This truly explains PERPETUAL MOTION. Very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. A PHOTON may be placed the center of THE SUN (as A POINT, of course), as the reduction of SPACE is offset by (or BALANCED with) the SPEED OF LIGHT; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. By Frank DiMeglio EINSTEIN NEVER UNDERSTOOD PHILOSOPHY, MATHEMATICS, AND PHYSICS, AS HE HAS BEEN TOTALLY OUTSMARTED BY SIR FRANK MARTIN DIMEGLIO: The balance of being AND EXPERIENCE is ESSENTIAL. BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand. THE SELF represents, FORMS, and experiences a COMPREHENSIVE approximation of experience in general by combining conscious and unconscious experience. MOREOVER, the ability of THOUGHT to DESCRIBE OR RECONFIGURE sensory experience is ULTIMATELY dependent upon the extent to which THOUGHT IS SIMILAR TO sensory experience. THOUGHTS ARE INVISIBLE. Dream experience is/involves true/real QUANTUM GRAVITY, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. MOST IMPORTANTLY, in dreams, BODILY/VISUAL EXPERIENCE is invisible AND VISIBLE IN BALANCE. IMPORTANTLY, dream experience is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. THE EYE is ALSO the body. Dreams improve upon memory AND UNDERSTANDING. Indeed, there is no outsmarting the GENIUS of dreams. OVERLAY what is THE EYE in BALANCED RELATION to/with what is THE EARTH. NOW, get a good LOOK at what is the translucent, SEMI-SPHERICAL, QUANTUM GRAVITATIONAL, AND BLUE sky. Excellent. The DOME of a person's EYE is ALSO VISIBLE. THE EARTH IS also BLUE (as water). F=ma AND E=mc2 PROVE that, why, and how ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, and describes what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE. SO, it is NECESSARILY a matter of precisely how these equations are understood in a BALANCED, EXTENSIVE, AND INTEGRATED fashion in RELATION to/with WHAT IS THOUGHT. The INTEGRATED EXTENSIVENESS of THOUGHT (AND description) is improved in the truly superior mind. E=mc2 is DIRECTLY and fundamentally derived from F=ma. Very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky.

The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. OPEN your EYES. NOW, LOOK at what is the FLAT, SETTING, AND ORANGE SUN (with the SPACE around it THEN going invisible AND VISIBLE IN BALANCE). This ORANGE SUN manifests or forms at what is EYE LEVEL/BODY HEIGHT as well. This ORANGE SUN is manifest ON BALANCE as what is NECESSARILY the BODILY/VISUAL EXPERIENCE of THE EARTH/LAVA. The viscosity of LAVA IS BETWEEN what is manifest as WATER AND THE EARTH/GROUND. ALL of SPACE is NECESSARILY electromagnetic/gravitational IN BALANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. F=ma AND E=mc2 do provide absolute, BALANCED, THEORETICAL, and CLEAR proof that ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. THEREFORE, the rotation of THE MOON MATCHES it's revolution. MOREOVER, a given PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) sweeps out equal areas in equal times; AND this is THEN consistent with/as what is F=ma, E=mc2, AND what is PERPETUAL MOTION; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. It ALL makes perfect sense. BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand. THE PLANETS (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) are NOT "falling" in what is "curved SPACE". In fact, this is nonsense. It is PROVEN.

I remember reading a case study from the 70s that said low frequency power lines are harmful to health and can cause depression and dullness, esp in children. Powerlines that are overhead and buried (not too deep) underground.

[@karhukivi]

Good point! That same studied concluded that when cities are developing, the areas where power lines converge into transformer stations are often less desirable areas for luxury housing. So, what happens is that low-price housing or council estates are built near these areas of powerlines and transformer stations and it appears that the people living in those houses are on lower incomes and perhaps do not spend as much on education and health care. A similar case exists for land prone to flooding - it will have a lower value and attracts low-priced housing or caravan parks, so when a flood occurs it is the same demographic group that is affected. It is the politicians and developers who deserve the blame for this problem, not the power lines!

[@davidb2206]

The cattle underneath the high voltage lines have significantly higher miscarriages, but nobody wants to talk about this.

[@frankdimeglio8216]

WHY ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY: Gravity/acceleration involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. This is consistent WITH F=ma AND E=mc2, as gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. So, inertia/inertial resistance is proportional to (or balanced with/as) gravitational force/energy; as this balances AND unifies ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy AND gravity; as this balances gravity AND inertia. In other words, GRAVITATIONAL force/energy is proportional to (or balanced with/as) inertia/inertial resistance; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy IS gravity. Accordingly, gravity/acceleration involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance; as gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. It is proven. Energy has/involves gravity, AND energy has/involves inertia/inertial resistance. "Mass"/energy involves balanced inertia/inertial resistance consistent with/as what is balanced ELECTROMAGNETIC/GRAVITATIONAL force/energy, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. By Frank DiMeglio

Sabine, you have done a great service in educating the public on topics in physics and astronomy, in which you are an expert. If you take the time to educate yourself, you may also be a valuable resource on epidemiology. But there are unexpected biological effects and a great deal of commercial influence over the science, so you have to read carefully to see the big picture. Radiation hormesis is real, though it has been made "controversial" by politics. And the most important biological effect of cell phone radiation is throuh voltage-gated calcium channels. Please read about this so you can serve the great number of us who have put our faith in you.

[@ronaldgarrison8478]

Estimating radiation exposure can be very difficult to do in a meaningful way. For example, suppose you have a block of radium in your living room, in a sealed capsule. Most radium atoms, from the most common sources, are alpha emitters, so almost any container would protect you from any direct radiation. The process produces radon, but this is an inert gas, and with good ventilation would not have little exposure to that, either. OTOH if you ingest radium, almost every alpha particle from decays will deposit its full energy in your body, so that could be very dangerous. If it's in your bones, it will probably stay there, which is even worse. So the environmental circumstances make huge differences in risk.

[@OccultDemonCassette]

Since we're on the topic of radiation - can you recommend any sources about whether using vintage radioactive camera lenses like the Super Takumar 50mm f1.4 would cause damage in the long term? I'd assume not since the camera body would probably block a lot of the radiation emitting from the rear of the lens, but we don't have any sources from actual scientists online - just people with cheap amazon bought pocket Geiger counters.
