Who knew that i would be living in the time of new physics Titans and that i would be able to grasp history while its in the making. Real progress observable in our lifetime!

Lawrence Krauss makes me cry of joy for the knowledge and the advancements in science in our life time. This conference is so good that everybody should watch it. He has the ability to make you understand the most difficult theories. Thank so much Lawrence.

It is the worst of times, politics are part of our daily lives. I am glad intelligent people are discussing it.

The MORE I come to KNOW, The MORE I come to KNOW I "REALLY DONT"KNOW.

The hidden reality theory is one the most interesting idea that has ever existed and I think will ever exist. This is because in hidden reality every thing is possible simply because no one has information to conclude on yes or no. That's why the reality is hidden and so interesting.

Greatly enjoyed this lecture!

Lawrence Krauss is just over the top with his discussion talks, and I wish he did more of them.

Glad I read the comments before 10 minutes in. Farewell

Everyone on Earth 🌏 needs to stop and watch this now. Brilliant.

reading these comments make me so happy knowing people are awakening

Brilliant? That's definitely debatable. Boring? Absolutely!

I wonder what a world without politics would look like.

Love to listen to these lectures....I'm by no means fully cognitive of everything they talk about but....They open doors to a much clearer perception of the universe on my part....Thank's!!

when asked what its like being the smartest person on earth Einstein replied "I don't know ask Mr. Tesla"

Thank you Lawrence. Beau...uuuu...tiful lecture!

Thanks so much

Wow - what a wonderful lecture, thank you, Dr. Krauss!

I love the way the staunch materialist Lawrence Krauss very carefully calls it an 'accident' rather than a 'miracle'. Especially when in this case both mean the same thing. As Einstein said: Either you believe it all happened by accident or you believe it was a miracle.

Imagine somebody didn’t torch the Library of Alexandria and we get something more than just Plato

Thank you 🙏

Thank you Conway Hall...

The use of drugs enhances consciousness.. and this guy is the best example of that.....

Fantastic Info..Thanks Foreverything 💯💞

Algebraic independence of variables & numbers over fields is fascinating. Proving that no finite algebraic relations exist among a set of numbers if incredibly difficult work.

Amazing. Thank you professor Dr. Krauss Steve Jones

I spend hours at a time listening to lectures. I love them when there's something to say... But this. Damn. I enjoyed him on Rogan years ago.

That was fascinating

Always very informative

Lawrence is such a great physicist that i always care about his ideas on that. I do not however care about his political views especially that i take it he preferred Hillary.

Another great Lawrence Krauss lecture. Awesome as always.

You set this up as the greatest and best, if this is our greatest and best, at least those that believe that premise are in trouble.

Thanks for informing me... not to bother with that book... it’s funny how I might have been interested until I actually saw this... that would not have been time well wasted! Life is short... spend it with awesome people!!

I was torn between this and "The Great British Bake Off" I chose wisely.

Amazing, love it, he's great as always.

The greatest story never told is much better.

20.30- He implies that the velocity of EM induction in a conductor is the speed of light, it is NOT ! Even the velocity of (massless) light, passing through a transparent medium, is less then its maximum through a vaccuum.

One piece of beauty in words, in fact religious people should enjoy this as well too bad the fight it. here in Europe we think this science story will and has to be the new basis for everything we do. but let's not forget our fantasy, imagination and dreams. I would argue all the philosophy spiritual theories and religions were the best game in town back then and we should not condemn those people but we do have to change the people who still believe these old theories. and with the necessary time and efforts this has to succeed.

For a theoretical physicist to say that something is impossible.......I shake my head sometimes at such irony.

It looks like he's standing next to a big bottle of cologne.

Red shoes are very symbolic!

This talk is amazing. It is the best Lawrence Krauss talk that I have ever watched. Thanks for sharing it.

if empty space has energy, it's not empty.

Way to alienate half of your audience right off the bat....

So if the "mistake" that created this new omnipresent field, as suggested in his "living in a superconductor" theory, is currently at a point where it cannot possibly be yet established as to whether this field will stay as it is, reduce/collapse, or grow, then surely one theory must be that it is to grow/evolve and such forces/reactions will then become the norm, rather than an exception to the rule?

Krauss is amazing, he even gets the fundamental flaw of the education system.

Very informative talk by Krauss.

This guy is manic and loves his own voice...

but his attitude to learning, with the children and learning, that most of what you leanr in life does not occur at school i second to none: skepticism and going to find out the answer. there I am with him 100%

Krauss is hard to follow but he does bring fresh knowledge to a old subject and there is a need of his thoughts.

I was slowly working on creating English subtitles for this video. It seems Conway Hall disabled user contributions like that. Pity!

Over promise. Under deliver.

Hes on to something... theres clearly a hidden reality where his jokes are hilarious.

I've just ordered the shoes

Loved the lecture. All I’ll say is on the large hadron collider..... physicists imagined it, but engineers built it. A few props might get kids into the industry. 👍

The answer is know thyself and all the answers within all of us which is LOVE thy neighbor as you love yourself. Then heaven on earth is manifest in all our HEARTs. Coz we are not outside of us. We are what we make in our higher self., I love you all.

A forcefield that froze as it cooled down bringing corporeal matter into existence sounds pretty special to me. What do you call 'accident'? It also follows the form of thesis, antithesis, synthesis.

I tried to use my own “crutches “ in math which led to me having to take remedial math

This was very beautiful. Thank you Lawrence.

Even for studied people not to understand. When you imagine that you have to teach this to young kids, maybe then the adults will understand a very little bit. So for a human it is to far away. Connect your story with the narrow vision of a simple human, so that we all can understand your message.

A little intelligence can be a bad thing for some people.

..so good 😘

Why was Neil Tyson in the beginning, and then quickly taken down?

Finally! Someone understands the allegory of the cave.

Accident is a word that causes lots of grief with people that need structure in their lives. That structure causes grief to many people that are just trying to live their lives.

Question... exactly what relative velocity must I have to make something look LONGER than 8 cm? I'm asking for a friend.

Thank you Lawrence :) Another awesome lecture. Please come to Scotland!

Laurance Krauss is exitable, but he knows his stuff, he is exitable because of how far we have advanced in the 21st century and want's us all to realise what he can realise.

The greatest stories start with once upon a time.

I like spinning in those chairs too.

"forget about jesus, the stars died so you could be even here!" -L. Krauss *GENIUS*

Great lecture by a brilliant man.

If i re-arrange the electrons in alpha centauri, does it break the entanglement? Cuz if not, can i not just build 2 entangled machine in large distance to each other, and change the arrangement of electrons in one and read opposite as a code.

Amazing lecture!

"The universe should be grateful that we are here" sounds like a return to the beliefs that we are the centre of the universe.

I'm not into politics nor polarization, but I do witness their actions and have found that they all lead this country in every personal direction which only strengthens such polarization towards eventual destruction.

In the high desert in california areas the sky looked like that on holloween night it was very much like that. Not as blue but was very much like that.

1:22:11 I just love it when people like this guy start drawing conclusions out of things they don't remotely understand. "The light speed limit is just bollocks, obviously... because If two objects are on a collision course at 3/4C, then their combined speed must be 1.5C, duh..." It exemplifies Krauss' icicle analogy/the allegory of the cavern beautifully: thick people have trouble understanding what's not immediately apparent, and they end up denying it. This guy can only think in Newtonian terms, so he assumes that anything beyond Newtonian physics must be rubbish...because, obviously, if he can't understand something, then NOBODY can, ^^. It must be sad for him, denying all sorts of stuff just because he can't figure them out... and I bet he still thinks he's a genius, ^^ So we are in a relativistic situation, we have two objects moving at 3/4C towards each other. First off, we need to specify a frame of reference, we can choose between being inside one of those objects or being an external observer. An external observer will see the two objects moving at 3/4C towards each other, so there's no mystery there, case closed. The interesting bit comes when we enter either object's frame of reference. From that perspective, we aren't moving at all (assuming constant speed and direction), it's the rest of the world that's rushing by us at 3/4C. Now the guy will say "and since the other object is moving 3/4C relative to the external observer, that means that it's 0.75C + 0.75C = 1.5C, duh" Well, nope. The mistake is applying Newtonian physics, just adding together V1+V2 and be done with it. As Krauss explained, every observer has a twisted space-time perspective, dependant on position and relative speed. Space contracts/time dilates the faster you go (according to other frames of reference), so it's not as simple as V1+V2 = PV. It's actually more like (V1 + V2) / 1 + (V1 x V2) = Perceived Velocity (if the other object is moving towards you). In this particular case: V1 = 0.75C V2 = 0.75C So let's apply the equation and see what's the actual perceived velocity from each object's frame of reference. (0.75 + 0.75) / 1 + (0.75 x 0.75) = 1.5 / 1.5625 = 0.96C There you go, less than 1C. There's more than one way of getting this kind of result, but the fundamentals are the same: space and time contract and dilate, the faster you go, so kiss Newtonian assumptions goodbye, they are only approximations that just don't work at relativistic speeds. Now you could say that this is just a dishonest equation designed so speeds which should amount to a number greater than 1, end up giving a result smaller than 1. And I would agree with you...except for the fact that equations like this one actually work when put to the test...they actually describe how the physical world behaves, Newtonian equations, on the other hand, fail at relativistic speeds. You can actually use relativistic equations to calculate mundane speeds too, they'll give you even more accurate results than Newtonian equations.

Plato? Socrates famous last words. " I drank what!?"

Van Gogh ( Starry Night ) made no money as an artist , but now his paintings are worth 100 million.He said he painted what he saw , but he never claimed to paint what everyone else saw.

His illustration served to make me feel that there are perspectives and personal realities based on our individual perspectives. They’re not really an illusion as such, just a limited view of reality, a definition of reality from our own perspective. That’s why curiosity is so important for science, to get us to m wonder what’s beyond our own horizon. “The illusion of design is an accident” This is an atheist fantasy rather than a scientific theory. The danger of taking physics into the realm of philosophy is that we use it to create new religions every day that suit our own fantastic imagination. It tells us something about our inner desires, but sheds very little light on the true nature of reality. The fact that matter and the universe as we know could blink put of existence in a moment should cause us to be filled with wonder that our existence is so improbable, potentially ephemeral and apparently accidental; that so much order and beauty has arisen out of apparently nothing doesn’t mean to me that life and the universe are meaningless. It means to me that they’re incredibly miraculous and that our existence is providential. It adds meaning to our existence rather than removing it.

Red Shoes and a black eye....🏰Reptilian?

Notice his red shoes. There’s a picture of a bunch of Hollywood elite, all wearing red shoes. It’s very symbolic.

I like listening to experts in physics and respect their expertise in the field. What I don't like listening to is when scientists believe they are experts in everything, including politics.

The most important answer you can ever get from someone is, I don't know. When you hear that answer and someone makes a decision and takes actions that are based from that information it is most generally going to be wrong beyond a dunkards walk by several orders of magnitude directly peoportional to the degree that those actions effect you. I figured this out when I was ten when I learned of my grandfather's experiences in WW1 noting that my father was drafted into WW2 wasn't 1 bad enough?

Ditto to some of the other comments. Typical university academic playing God.

I accidentally skipped over the one slight political comment at very beginning, by moving my thumb to the start of his talk. Just an fyi for those of you who want to avoid politics: easily done, you just have to want to focus on science 👍

Just got done listening to Dr Chuck an amazing universe. Another astounding man

It's already there, it depends on the observer and his perception of measurement for a description.

Does the number of dimensions have to be a rational number?

55 minutes later... still no point😥

Great video to watch if you like political nastiness where doesn't need to be. Stick to doing what you are good at Krauss.

If this guy was so smart, he wouldn't be mixing knowledge with politics !

Awesome mr. Krauss your a living legend . It’s too bad not many people understand physics

Kind of like the carrot top of science🤴

Nice red shoes Larry.

So space expands and contracts . That’s ace .

Personal politics has no place in a science lecture.

Theoretically your shoes reflect the speed of your adoption of nonsense when confronted with dichotomies.

absolutely brilliant mind in our dear Mr Krauss.. only respect for this man
