As always, excellent! I could listen to Dr. Greene for hours.

[@carlosponte2939]

i do. I had had even just one teacher like him.

[@carlosponte2939]

Had I had, that was supposed to read😒

[@konoha1993]

Awesome. Brian Green is one of my heroes

[@RemoCODclips]

I love Brian Greene. Such a good scientist and scientific communicator. Loved this episode!!

[@mickeybrumfield764]

The best understanding of consciousness I have ever seen was in a book by Douglas Hofstadter called "I Am A Strange Loop" and would encourage anyone looking for a good understanding of what human consciousness is to read it. It would seem at its base that our consciousness is an evolutionary function of the strong innate a priori instinct for self preservation.

[@drquantum439]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge sir!

[@vladanlausevic1733]

Thanks Brian :)

[@bruceblosser384]

So I finally begin to understand the Uncertainty Principle!! Some of the higher math is beyond me... but I have no problem with graphs, and that helped quite a bit! Thanks :)

Romania here ! All your videos are awesome ! Always looking on youtube WSF channel. Great discussions !

From Alrewas England thanks Brian always like listening to you

[@Dany.Martello]

Thanks Dr Greene for your passion to share

[@samuelwerner7590]

I am really enjoying your daily equations talks. I learned about them from my friend Indu Satija. Your talk on Planck lengths was wonderful. Perhaps you can get to something about neutrons and their interaction with gravity...especially the COW experiment where gravity and QM play a significant simultaneous role. Sam Werner

Brian your explanations are superb. I am from Belfast the place associated with Lord Kelvin and Ernest Walton. Unfortunately another one of our notable scientist John S Bell is almost unknown. It would be a privilege if you could explain the Bell’Theorem to prove to some people in this part of the world that he did not invent the telephone. Bob

[@philcretired5143]

On a question regarding the meaning of life Joseph Campbell responded that he doesn't think we are really searching for 'the meaning' but rather for the 'experience of being alive'. I have found that to be true for me. Seems to be very tied up with consciousness and and its transitoriness.

[@ManWhoUsesComputer]

Thank you, sir. Regarding WorldScienceU, will there be a course covering General Relativity? Regarding "dark" matter, could entanglement explain dark matter? As space/time seems to be emergent from entanglement, could a different form of entanglement (perhaps entanglement of different classes of particles) explain dark-matter effects? Thanks, again. Great stuff!

Sir can you please explain einstein velocity combination formula when v=speed of light

[@johnhoebel8209]

I have a question about entanglement. You stated in recent video on entanglement: when first entangled particle is measured and comes out of superposition state that the second entangled particle will come out of its superposition state AT THE SAME MOMENT. My question is there experimental evidence that the second particle comes out of superposition state AT THE SAME MOMENT even if it is not measured? This I would think could be tested and possibly has.

[@apburner1]

Can I get an override into your course? I will also need you to provide transportation, lodging, a meal plan, perhaps a small stipend. You can make this happen?

[@merlepatterson]

What are the possibilities of deeper gravitational flux causing a physical high energy wave process slowing at atomic scales?

51:08 how does gravity and energy interact besides gravity creating energy or is the same as the push back at a stars core ?

Thanks Dr. Greene. (clever promotion at around 34 min BTW) I bought the book soon after viewing. 😂

[@RemoCODclips]

Same 😂 I ordered his book right after this episode. Love the book so far

Hello...Mr. Brian Greene. Could u plz explain what is scientifically or otherwise wrong in the theory or idea that atoms may have proto-consciousness or kind of a frozen or static...or sleeping consciousness? Wouldn't such state of consciousness in atoms explain the emergence or fundamentality of Consciousness? :-)

[@PetraKann]

Do you believe that a deterministic theory will be developed in the future that will replace Quantum Mechanics which is more of a stochastic theory?

[@niftythriftyfun]

👌👌👌

[@omsingharjit]

I have lot's of rare questions i wish i can ask you

[@seekingtruthfacts7743]

If gravity slows down time, and hence will the wavelength (or frequency ) of light, then will the wavelength change of light detected by the Hubble telescope be different by a earth bound telescope? How big a wavelength change will there be at the Jack Webb Telescope?

[@mkmcemd]

Which physicist that you have disagreements with do you read the most often?

[@redneckrevolt1]

Could dark matter be what’s left of the destroyed matter/antimatter pairs that collided. 37:48 is you conversing with us about it. I guess my question is, what is left over when billions of matter and antimatter pairs collide without that one? Nothing? Or dark energy and dark matter with repulsive “gravity”? I should think before typing tho. What happened when that left over “stuff” interacts with matter? Is it somewhat explosive to cause a repulsive “gravity”?

What do you think about the big bounce, dark energy ‘winning’ the battle atm with the accelerated expansion of the universe, but dark matter winning their battle inevitably.

There is nothing smaller than the string in string-theory. So what are the string made of?

[@BenKrisfield]

The problem is that we have an observable universe. The "centre" of the universe might be outside of the observable universe. So until we see the entire universe, other ideas on the centre of the universe are on the table.

[@RP-mm9ie]

What is ripping space

[@ishanthmishra7658]

I am reading your book Until the end of time and you asked a question in it --------> Is universe disobeying second law of thermodynamics by becoming more ordered structure from nothing? I'd like to say that hasn't disorder increased since the quantity of dark energy has increased a lot and we are heading towards a big rip, increasing disorder and destruction of every ordered structure.

does any body know how to chat??

[@priyabratadash381]

Sir please kindly explain me, why electron doesn't falls into the nucleus, while revolving around it???? I am from India.

[@frede1905]

Because of the Bohr model of the atom.

[@priyabratadash381]

@@frede1905 Please explain the mechanism in brief......

[@frede1905]

@@priyabratadash381 The electron can only be in specific orbits around the nucleus (there's a collection of allowed orbits that the electron can be in). Therefore, the electron can't be arbitrarily close to the nucleus.

[@priyabratadash381]

@@frede1905 My confusion is that, what makes these orbits specific or well defined?? The fundamental mechanism behind formation of these orbits with definite energy confuses me, why these orbits are arranged in this particular way????

[@bedahfisika]

Prof Greene I would like to apologize for being a plank: of the wooden: {2x4} variety upon seeing your last vlog/blog or vid eo made me realize a choice, Einstein or his Cat? Sir no doubt, he was a genius or too split anymore hairs Thank you!

[@chdoron]

If before the Big Bang space time and mass didn't exists , the Big Bang create space, time and mass , so where was that small nugget with quantum fluctuation that give birth to our universe come from? From a parallel Universe in the Multiverse? That answer also doesn't solve the problem how all that process of creation start? Does the science have any answer for that' or we still don't know. I am from Israel

[@dankuchar6821]

Honestly, the big bang does not tell you where the universe came from. It doesn't explain the creation or the origin of the universe. The big bang only tells you that the universe was once in a much more hot and dense state than it is now. And it expanded and it is now less hot and less dense. Big bang theory does not tell you where the universe came from.

[@chdoron]

@@dankuchar6821 So the story that science tell us is similar as the story in Bible. The Universe is created from nothing ,there should be a creator to create such a complex universe that is fine tuned for creation of life, becose if all that was started with big gigantic explosion and than evolved until intelligent life appear the chance that all this happened without bring planned and designed is the same chance that from big atomic bomb evolve life.
