Do you think these retarded kids need to have the better world? Or something better than what they are facing with? Do they screaming and asking directly to the world one by one ? Hell No, But they would agree with me in something if I saying out ...for sure... ask for more painful for your torturing ideas ... yes is what I would want ... make me more ....until turn me to be not weak and useless to be not human no more ... there is no God left in me ... that what I am waiting for , am I surprised you guy or u didn't expect what will come out from me ... Keep all the goodness with your people ok ... don't mixed with these kids like me ... if I don't go hardest as you I won't get the best from you ... I won't know how the world greasiest as well ... because there are so many bullshits in this universe... sorry that I used this way to see the world , people have just only one life .... not more than that ...I want the other human should know this very well . Not to say ... you can start to have to new life ... pause ...this ... because half of these people never gonna make it.

As an aside, Brian Greene is an excellent host of these scientific forums. His ability to rephrase an expert's statements into more simple, less technical language is masterful. And finally, as a professor of psychology for 43 years, I have realized a passion for physics during the past 10 years. I just wish I could live longer to study this field in more depth. P.S.

+LampDoesVideogame Newton did not have a theory of gravity. Newton observed that the same force that made things fall to the ground also kept celestial bodies moving in their orbits. He devised laws as to what motions the effects of gravity would produce but Newton never considered what the force of gravity actually is. Einstein's General Relativity is a theory of gravity because it proposes that gravity is caused by mass distorting spacetime and objects traveling through the geometry of spacetime are affected by the shape of spacetime itself.

[@hughcake1895]

Great talk. I would really enjoy a discussion about the fundamentals in mathemathics, physics and philosophy -- the difficult problems at the point of the arrowhead: Inherent indeterminacy in axiomatic systems (leads to measurement problems in physics). Experimental data is pointing to an emergent reality. I would like to listen to new ideas about the metaphysical implications of quantum mechanics. I would even embrace very speculative ones, because strange -- coherently strange -- ideas should be considered at this point. Epistemology plays a very important role in how we define axiomatic systems conceptually (often underestimated). We need new ways of asking difficult questions, because the purely mathemathical picture of the universe seems to break down to the language of mathemathics itself as we probe deeper (This does not mean that reality is mathematics. It means that reality is idealistic, and we do not know how to deal with that -- because it implies that reality has some kind of purpose). I would like to listen to people who do not confuse the concept 'absence of anything' with the number zero. The concept 'absence of anything' is nonsensical when it is applied to physical systems -- and even in ordinary language. This confusion seems to be widespread. It leads to theoretical weirdness (Infinitely expanding 'nothing' described as 'something' etc.). I would also like to listen to creative ideas about how the observer fits into this picture. The C-word and quantum mechanics mentioned in the same sentence is not necessarily just semantics or quantum quackery. The act of mesurement: interaction between probabilistic fields, seems to have some fundamental significance (interaction presupposes an observer ... a point of determinacy). This means that reality is at least self-referential at the quantum level of reality (I am one of those 'crackpots' who still consider the possibility of teleological effects). I want to know what is going on there, because it seems to me that I am either crazy or that there is something everybody else knows that I just do not understand.

Philosophical and science fiction stuff in itself but hey no one knows what happens inside a black hole and did Hawkins not discover that black holes eventually evaporate.

Wow incredible video and guests. Thanks you!

I find this a very unbalanced (interesting nevertheless) debate. The panel comprises exclusively what are essentially quantum field theorists (string theory being essentially a field theory) who seem to be saying: in fact Einstein was wrong on the principles and Newton (an absolutist in space-time) was right. This is because both string theory as well QFT require a non-Einsteinian absolute background space-time. Thus, I find this a rather strange celebration of Einstein's ideas, by collecting a group of physicists who, deep down (as Weinberg admits) are in disagreement with Einstein deeper ideas. To balance this debate, it would have been far more interesting to have taken some people from the loop quantum gravity community (Rovelli and others) along, who would represent a way to marry the deeper ideas of Einstein with quantum heory without having to sactifice the essential tenets of Einstein's theory. Of course, with Brian Greene in charge this would never has happened. Thus, we get this strange book-kissing thing with all the panel effectively giving a kiss of death to Einstein's fundamental ideas. Very strange.

+Heisenberg-SchrodingerEmc2 You guys are nerds aye but true.

[@glutinousmaximus]

+Heisenberg-SchrodingerEmc2 The "classical mechanics being non-probabilistic" bit is fairly obvious; _except_ that it's not entirely correct. That's why QM is more accurate (and (very accurate in QED) The example of the box with a vacuum is sometimes given as an example. If you introduce a gas in one side of the box, it will spread rapidly throughout the box such that the distribution of atoms is fairly even. That's the _greatest_ probability. but there is a vanishingly small chance that at some point in time, the atoms will only occupy one half of the box. (in the next instant, the situation will be different) But I suppose that's the sort of thing which would rather difficult to show empirically. Regards.

kyaume21 Brian green can never get the hang of it . He still stuck and steeped in this delusion of strong string theory . He has suffered from this for years

[@TheWraithkrown]

As a lay person I like "string theory", however, there are some big problems with string theory that a string theorist would admit if pressed. For example, there is no way, experimentally, to prove string theory. I am skipping ahead a bit, only 1hr14min in, but i don't think any of these people are going to throw out general relativity just yet. String theory CAN NOT be proven experimentally. As they admitted in the beginning, general relativity has been proven experimentally on several occasions. At some point general relativity may be replaced, but it will not be by string theory.

[@Deeplycloseted435]

TheWraithkrown I too a lay person / physics enthusiast, would say your comment is correct, but you left out one big word.....YET. String theory can not be experimentally demonstrated YET. I mean, hey......it took a century to devise an experiment to measure gravity waves. When did string theory emerge? Sometime in the 1970's? Perhaps in our lifetime, something will give? I don't know, short of creating and gathering data on a singularity in a laboratory. CERN is big, but I think they realize that they need something even bigger. Sometimes I wonder if it just all comes down to one person, like an Einstein or a Newton type-person who has the ability to divorce their thought and imagination from the current models that exist, to help us go down another path, and reach new conclusions.

[@THEPROUDSON]

Ok it's official I'm a geek, loved it, loved the explanations and the graphics presentation.

[@SernasHeptaDimesionalSpace]

IM mexican i dont believe most of all - how good can make it the standard moddle with out gravity and all the fortress are based on and there a lot that beleave without seen

[@AdnanKhan-oq6xh]

Gabriela knew that Gravitational waves have been detected at that time but she kept it a secret.

[@tirthachakrabarti5912]

I think the first signal was detected a few months later....

[@dr.johnpaladinshow9747]

I had a conversation w/ Dr. Weinberg about 25 years ago on the possibilities of quantum effects being responsible for "paranormal" events. At first, he was reluctant to admit that there might be a connection. After a half an hour or so, though, he did confess that it was not beyond the realm of possibility. Now retired, he is still one of the most open minded physicists that I have met. Though, perhaps not with all of his colleagues.

My question is did math create the universe or did the universe create the math.

[@manasaveenapadma2236]

+Larry Gilliam i think mathematics is the lens that we use to see and understand this world/universe.. and we can not only see but use our other senses.. like wise there might be other ways.. so definitely universe(precisely we) create math..

[@GuileQwerty]

+Larry Gilliam Neither. The concept of 'creation' only applies really to conscious agency. Math is a language which is designed to express amounts and patterns in purely logical terms. The numbers we use, or "letters", are certainly created symbols, but the true statements which can be expressed with math are discovered and extrapolated from the observed universe. Just like in verbal language, statements of fact can be true or not true; and when they are true, they can be used as premises for predicting as-yet unknown conclusions. For example, time is an observed aspect of the universe, and we human create the set of intervals for clocks to measure.

[@monktrane325]

+Manasa Veena Thank you..I have always had an issue with human's presuming that the universe is based on math. Perhaps it is a lens; however the lens is made by humans. Yes, I agree with the properties of quantum because I remember as a boy, I questioned everything including: that the answers are simply on this earth. So, smaller, smaller and smaller is .....maybe the answer. There is a thought I had but I will keep it to myself......

[@monktrane325]

+Cee Jay My goodness-I have always argued that consciousness is the answer. As in death, if I am conscious then there is existence after death. If I am not conscious after death then there is nothing. Existential....Regarding time and space, it can argued with math but; as Einstein even came to a wall. Gravity to me is the answer to many things. A warped dimension is not the total answer.

[@GuileQwerty]

+Larry Gilliam Do you remember being conscious before you were born? If 'yes', how would you propose to demonstrate that claim? If 'no', why then would you assert that your consciousness will survive death? Some scientists and philosophers propose that human consciousnesses (minds) can be transferred onto sufficiently powerful computers. This concept dodges the question of postmortem existence by replacing the expired human body with a new synthetic brain for the mind to be in. If we're talking about minds surviving the death of the brain (body) on their own, without being transferred directly into a new brain, well then we're talking about ghosts and reincarnation and there is just no evidence in support. In fact, not only is there no evidence in support of ghosts and rebirth, but all the evidence is against it. As for Einstein and gravity and warped dimensions, I don't understand what you're getting at.

[@KP_Oz]

Was there a follow up with Steven Weinberg on this topic?😃

[@morsecodereviews1553]

Dang I messed up. I walked through Harvard Yards every morning on the way to high school. Where am I now? Pfft working minimum wage stocking shelves.

[@elck3]

Morse Code Reviews, I feel you. But there ALWAYS is time to drop everything you’re doing and pursue your dreams

[@elck3]

I also walked thru Harvard Yard - very inspiring and some of the best times of my life
