70 million is not a waste, there will always be losses in scientific progress. It not finding anything puts us further on the right track. It shouldn't be perceived as a bad venture.

Anton seems like such a nice person. I'm glad he's around 😆💜

Thanks for the insight Anton, and to those of you with negative comments below, If you don't actually have the answer then don't give Anton a hard time. He didn't say he had the answer. He's just passing on the information. Lets see where this takes us.

If attractive Gravity is caused by matter interacting with a higher dimensional field, why can't something with the opposite effect be true considering all the naturally opposing particles we have observed?

hello wonderful anton, this is person

So, darkmatter could be described as a negative mass "fluid"? That makes calling spacecraft "Ships" make even more sense!

Several hundred million? Waste? What are you talking about. Have you seen the US national debt? Now that's astronomical.

I just flipped through the paper rather quickly and I can say this is the most compelling theory I’ve ever heard for dark energy, and it has completely made me reevaluate my position on the “Big Crunch” theory. This is mind blowing, and I really think Farnes’ theory makes the most sense by a long shot.

Compared to all that crazy military spending. A few hundred million on dark matter is peanuts.

" The force is made by all living things" " It surrounds us, penetrates us, it's what binds the galaxy together."

isnt negative mass the missing ingredient to several "warp drives"???

Better spent on making cool science stuff than more wars and devastation.

I almost didn’t open this video because the title looks like some Buzzfeed-esque clickbait lol

If he is right, he could win the next nobel physics prize.

“Constantly replenished” sounds suspiciously like Hoyle’s steady-state universe.

Anton to date I think this is the most promising idea. As you were presenting the video I was already thinking in terms negative mass and it's interaction with itself and with positive mass using simple universal gravitational law. Finally never feel regrets. All work is step in the right direction. Failures finally point us the right direction.

That means warp drive

70 million is not much if u compare the US military Budget

Wowza, if said Scientist is correct in his theories, he’s THE ‘Wonderful Person’! ✨

If that's the answer I would really find it amazing, marvellous, wonderful! Such a simple sollution for a mind-boggling problem that has been around for a few decades.

Interesting! That answers my question pretty well from one of my previous comments. It WAS anti-gravity! But anti-gravity doesn't seem to work the way that I would have assumed that it would. It does make a lot of sense though, the second force should have its mirror! The oil analogy is almost perfect, but its missing something.. Because oil does repel water by its nature, so it just sits on top. Hydrophobic lipids and all. But this seems like it acts more like two cohesive fluids, occupying the same general space as its counterpart without either effecting the other in any extreme way. Rather serving to bind each other in place to an extent. I also think that using only acceleration and the force of gravity as the qualifiers for the interaction of the particles is a mistake. Yes, they are moving in the same direction, but at the same time they're repelled from collapse. So there must be another force involved. Its like the vacuum of space creates a constant tension that's difficult to overcome without much energy. Very similar to the way that I imagine electron clouds exist around atoms, but slowed down by 1,000,000,000% I find it very difficult to believe that negative mass is generated out of nothingness. Mass-energy equivalency should work the same on dark particles as it does on visible ones. I'd wager that there's a sort of balancing act with the amount of matter (both types), such that when two opposite particles meet they are obliterated. Then, in that vacuum of energy, an equivalent amount of mass is re-distributed into the fabric of the universe. So in a way, saying that the universe has a way of generating dark matter from nothing isn't wrong, but the same applies to normal matter in that situation. Seems to be, we're just missing a variable. There's got to be a pressure that prevents the immediate collapse of the universe and maintains balance between the two to a degree. Thank you so much for making such thought-provoking videos Anton! Much appreciated :D

Please keep us updated, wonderful Anton. You can delve into a few facets of the source paper in more depth for another video and we'll be happy. Perhaps explain some of the predictions like CMB looking different because sound waves in the early plasma would be different. Also some of the implications that would be lovely: such as breaking the Hubble Constant puts us in a cyclic universe (of maybe only ~105 billion years) because the negative curvature will make things collapse. I think you're good at simplifying things so go deep as you like.

Mr. Petrov, your videos are always informative and I appreciate that you provide links to the papers that you reference. I absolutely love the visual representation provided by this particular scientist. It certainly does seem to create something that is representative of our universe. Very exciting stuff! Keep up the great work.

This is very exciting! By far the best possible description and explanation I have ever heard or read on the subject of dark matter. So, I am looking forward in seeing how it all plays out, and with great hope that Dr. Farnes' theory is correct and is eventually accepted by the scientific community. @Anton Nicely done on your presentation, "as usual". It's why I keep coming back for more.

Think dark energy is just tops of the gravitation fields. Like mass make dips in the gravitation fields,

I lost him after, "Hello wonderful person." :o)

I think this guy nail it, his explanation is so symetrical, elagant. Because his theory could also explain dark energy

Man I really appreciate the videos. Thank you

Pre-watching; this could be a big deal

'Draw a little minus in the math' That's what Maxwell did to electro(-)magnetism

I had proposed about 2 yrs ago that what we can detect as baryonic matter/energy is one kind of energy and dark energy is another kind of energy, incompatible like oil and water. And like oil in water, oil tends to clump together and will move toward each other and even merge much like galaxies and black hole mergers. The dark matter measured is just the tension that keep oil and water apart so that even if an oil drop were to spin super fast, it would still stay together, like galaxies spinning faster than their gravity holding them together. The oil and water is just an analogy, since they are both made from same energy form, while my 2 proposed energies are not just different forms of same energy but completely different energies. They dont interact with each other in any way, no friction, no exchange of energy, not even gravitational energy. They are just incompatible (at the macro level, however, they may somewhat interact at the quantum level). Since we are made up of only one energy, live only in one energy form, we cannot detect the other energy form(s). I know it is so much like introducing a god complex to explain the unexplainable, lol. But then I am not an accredited scientist.

'Can you tell what it is yet?' This is a refreshingly open minded video, bearing that in mind, galaxies are vast and the stars spread out, but at distance their light is more coherent and the distances could be mitigated. Consider that a galaxy is surrounded by stars in contrast to a planetary system, so without breaking any rules the attraction of a bracelet of bodies to one another would contract that bracelet or maintain its radius against a faster rotation period. How does the system accelerate up to super-rotation speed? That is another question.

Got an ad and watched the whole thing for support. Amazing vids man

I've just read a little bit about it on the book We have no idea, by Jorge Cham and Daniel Whiteson. I'm on the page 247 and in that chapter they explain what we've known about this subject so far. I really recommend this book for you guys!

It's like the old saying, "The fish doesn't notice the water until it's placed on dry land."

In the same way as magnets, like poles repel, whereas mixed poles attract.

Just when we thought we had it all figured out and then someone discovers that the Big Bang expansion is actually accelerating. LoL! It's like someone keeps moving the finishing line further away.

So Dark Matter kinda works like cement ? Holding things together.

It gives us what we have not had before: a method of directly testing the theory. That is totally sane.

Listening to this theory feels like finding out cheat codes to a game

wait wait wait, negative mass? does that mean anti-gravity and warp-drive might be possible? OMG 🤓🤓🤓

If negative matter exists, it would be pushed away by matter and hitting the negative matter present in this "web" ( negative matter in space ), which would push it back towards matter, keeping it in place. The resulting force tho would point away from the most dense areas of the universe, making it expand.

Love your channel dude keep up the good work

Hello, Wonderful Anton! Thank you for all of your videos.

Awesome stuff! 😁👍 We'll see either they prove it or not. I'm sure if this does answer what it is, there will be a whole new set of questions afterwards. 🤔💭

The budget deficit and dark matter ...ARE THE SAME THING !!!!!!

What you need to understand is not finding something, is finding something. It can help to rule out possibilities and disprove theories. When you observe, seeing “nothing” is a result.

Hypothesis: The nature of the universe is more similar to boiling sugar. A point of nucleation in a ocean of matter was the "big bang". The expanding state change of space/time pushes back the "nothing" that is the ocean creating the universe. It expands faster as the forces of state change exceed the surrounding "nothing" (deep sea of matter). There is a very good chance that space time not only extends out but also collapses in creating space in multiple dimensions. This would suggest that the nature of the universe is like boiling sugar with bubbles expanding, collapsing and dark matter the sugar bubbles and strands being pushed back and yet sometimes pulling. Black holes would be areas where the matter has re-condensed possibly even creating new universes inside themselves. A roiling bubbling foam of dimensions.

8:00 - Is it just me or does that look like it could be the building blocks for anti-gravity technology...?

If we can industrially increase the emergence rate of this substance, and make it emerge forcefully inside event horizons, then we may be literally be capable of blowing up black holes.

So if dark matter that has negative gravity and gravity and time are related doesn't that mean going backwards in time is possible with dark matter in this simulation?

So my mind gets blown from time to time by Petrov videos, but seeing Petrov with his mind blown is pretty amazing.

Maybe space is just repulsive to mass, and masses just shield each other from space-repulsion in a way that looks like gravitational attraction.

Well, we’ll see. I want a gravity gun like Freeman.

You say that dark matter would fall into gravity wells and stay there if it interacted normally with gravity, but that's not true. Because dark matter doesn't interact electromagnetically, it doesn't have any way to convert kinetic energy into heat (i.e. thermal photons, which are a manifestation of the electromagnetic force) to dissipate its kinetic energy. The only way dark matter particles could dissipate their kinetic energy would be through direct collisions with other particles that _do_ interact electromagnetically, and thus could receive energy from those collisions and then radiate it away as thermal photons. Most types of particles in the universe are "pointlike", meaning they have no physical cross-section, thus direct collisions are impossible and they can only interact with each other via the fundamental forces. Because dark matter doesn't interact with any other fundamental forces besides gravity, dark matter has no way to lose kinetic energy, and is doomed to swirl around gravity wells forever.

It actually makes a lot of sense. . . Sometimes the hardest answers have the easiest solutions

It seems that there are many systems in the Universe that behave as matter floating in water, as the planets pulled by the Sun or protons pulled into a cell; or as just moving water as in the case of the Sun and the atmospheres of the planets... Maybe dark matter is Planck length Toroids in perfect symmetry, maybe what some call the vector equilibrium, where the Toroids in equilibrium don't produce or absorb vibrations of asymetrical Toroids but allows them to flow through like sound through water while allowing for things to be spaced apart yet connected vibrational. Maybe we are oceans floating in a single ocean, draining into that ocean as we are filled by that ocean.

Hi, Mr. Petrov. What if "Dark Energy" and "Dark Matter" are just the same thing and that is an intrinsic expansion of space-time?

Enjoying your content, I don't know who the 400+ people are that dislike your videos but, haters gotta hate!

Anton, thank you for keeping your explanations available to those of us without a formal education. You have made the general concept of space accessible to me. I can’t thank you enough for the work you do. Godspeed.

I am just guessing, but doesn’t that mean negative energy? My understanding is that if m < 0, therefor E < 0. Although this is the strict formula of E = mc2, which means there may be other variables I don’t know of that make E = 0 or E > 0. What does negative energy even mean?

Algebra 101 - always check your signs : D

I actually love this hypothesis....it's elegant and simple and probably correct

Interesting. When Ben Rich of Lockheed Skunk-works was asked by an Engineer how does the propulsion system work? (referring to the craft that can take "ET" home) he asked "How does ESP work?" The Engineer answers in a guessing tone "All points in space and time are connected?" Ben answers "That's how it works." in the calamity of reporters shouting Ben tuns and adds "There was a mistake in the math."

Hi Mr. Petrov, My Theory of Everything I have been waiting for nearly fifty years for someone to come to the realization of how the universe works. I first tried to explain it to my grade seven teacher to no avail. He simply could not grasp the concept. It was not his fault. He as many or possibly all suffer from the misnomer that the product of the “big bang” event is the universe. In fact, this explosive event happened within the universe. I have always been mystified as to why our most brilliant minds would say that the universe could be infinite while claiming that it is about thirteen and a half billion years old. I do not fault these great minds when it comes to understanding infinite. The question is if you can put a measurement on the duration it has existed, why refer to it as infinite? The universe may be infinite but not the “big bang” event. I could sum it up by quoting, “for whatever there is a beginning to there is also an end!” First, let us examine what current science claims. A couple of seconds prior to the “big bang” is unknowable to us since there was no time or space. Our science breaks down. Simply no physics and yet in the same breath it is asserted that there was a singularity! We must ask a simple question. Through what processes does a singularity form? Well from our current thinking and understanding, it is gravity. Thanks to Mr. Newton’s observations and math calculations, gravity is proportional to mass. Therefore, to have gravity there must have been mass, prior to the “big bang!” We can measure mass and the effects of gravity since ours like most other galaxies has a massive black hole and singularity at its center. It would appear that our physics does not break down prior to the previously mentioned “big bang” event. Our science would seem to be constantly contradicting itself or perhaps it is just a case of “the forest cannot be seen for the trees!” Humankind believes that if he were not there to hear the tree fall it is questionable as to whether it made a sound. I put this philosophical question in the same category as, how many angels can dance on the head of a pin and file it under irrelevant and foolish! Of course, it made a sound, just like space and time already existed before the “big bang” even though human beings were not around to measure them. It is a good thing that human beings exist or the explosive event known as the “big bang” indeed the universe’s existence would seem to be questionable. Dark matter is the building blocks of visible matter. After an immeasurable time, the measurable aspects of matter and interaction breaks down due to the vast distances between even the smallest particles. It is the remnants and ashes of the explosion, fine soot. All that is matter and of course energy is subject to entropy and dissolution as it spreads out in all directions from the source. We know that the explosion was not even in all directions, so the vast clouds of dark matter floated around the universe until eventually, they encountered other clouds of dark matter. After periods that are immeasurable, vast amounts of dark matter began to coalesce until eventually the process, due to gravity, began to gain momentum. The amount of time is anybody’s guess since humankind was not there to measure it; possibly, it took countless trillions of years to become the initial beginnings of a singularity. This bourgeoning singularity continued gravitationally attracting more and more dark matter, including at some point dark energy to it. The speed at which the singularity was absorbing dark matter and dark energy became too much for the singularity to adjust to, a tipping point, the result was a “big bang!” like a baby that takes too much milk too quickly and needs to burp. The resulting matter that is created could not be stabilized until a thin dimensional wall was formed from the initial massive release of energy and separated what was left of the newly created matter and antimatter, arresting the annihilation effect. The missing antimatter that our science cannot seem to find is attached to that thin dimensional wall. Normal matter is on this side directly adjacent. This is what made the visible matter we know possible, as this action sufficiently stabilized its creation. The stabilization is the process of energy shared back and forth between the thin dimensional wall, matter, and antimatter, a process similar to Tesla’s alternating current. All of the visible matter that is detectable has the stabilizing antimatter directly juxtaposition across from it and vice a versa. I have taken notice that when I point my finger at the antimatter universe and say, “you are the antimatter universe,” that there seems to be a person pointing back at me making the same statement! As for the missing gravity or at least fifty percent of the total amount of it, is being shared with this mirrored reflection, and maybe at least partly responsible for balancing and stabilizing our visible matter. All of this has happened at least twice and may happen repeatedly, forever like a seemingly never-ending pulse. My dear friend, if the content of this paper seems simple and brief then I have accomplished at least part of my objective. As Mr. Einstein stated,” If you cannot explain it in simple terms, then you do not understand it yourself. By Rick Ethier

So possibly, this negative mass matter would infinitely draw from the void, giving body to the zero-point energy theory? The implications of this are formidable!

The bubble thumbnail is a great example. The bubbles (representing matter) and the spaces surrounding (represents space) I can try to understand the elasticity between matter and dark matter theory, but it’s more likely matter by nature drives to be as dense as possible. There is no such thing as negative matter.

brilliant. finding a concept that after running it in a gravitational simulator, result in patterns matching reality. must be right. cheers to you.

When the answer is stupid simple and people always miss it.

DarkEnergy is a mathmyth.

Hello wonderful person. Greetings from Atlantic City New Jersey USA.

As I've see written before, I've always considered dark matter as very refined matter that precedes positive matter as we know it so this theory is a step in the right direction.

Dear Anton; This is similar to Hoyle's notion that empty space created matter. Interesting!

You're a bit off in your interpretation of the standard theory for Dark Matter. It doesn't clump at all, actually. And it most definitely is attracted gravitationally to normal matter (in the standard interpretation). The reason it doesn't clump into planets, stars, and galaxies is because it doesn't interact with anything in any way other than gravity. Thus it does go into the center of galaxies, planets, and stars... it just oscillates right back out of them with no loss of momentum, since it can't undergo any sort of friction. The dark matter halos around galaxies aren't stagnant things; they're constantly churning, zipping in and out of the galaxies in an almost boiling-like motion. The reason they form large halos is because the average motion of the countless particles create that form on average. I admit it's not a very compelling theory, and I do quite like this negative mass interpretation, but as a science communicator, it's good to get the status quo correct. ;)

Allow me to offer a simple idea to explain why negative mass doesn’t repulse itself and attracts itself instead but not so much regular matter. Gravity is explained as bending the fabric of space time. We often simulate this by showing a large object on a cloth and how it makes the cloth stretch and dip down. Well, if negative mass exists then it should have negative gravity. It would essentially be like putting an object on the opposite side of the cloth and stretching the cloth and dipping up. It would act the same as any other mass would in space just mirrored. When negative mass surrounds regular mass it would naturally repel the normal mass but at the same time would bind itself to the rest of the negative mass surrounding it.

Fascinating. It’s those that go outside the box that find answers and win Nobel prizes.

Looks like a granite countertop! 😂

Could this also lead to the conundrum of why we have matter and no antimatter?

MOND postulates that gravity is not constant, but varies over large distance. Scientists criticize it for lacking a theoretical basis, an explanation oh “how” and “why”. I read recently that more scientists are starting to believe that gravity is inconstant; you recently had a video about the Hubble Constant being inconstant. It strikes me that this approach appears to fit the facts better than conventional “dark matter” models, and provides the theoretical basis. I would appreciate your take on this idea.

I wouldn't say it was a total waste for two reasons. 1. Proving something doesn't exist is advancing knowledge 2. Overcoming the engineering challenges for the detector will probably make it easier to overcome the next challenge.

It’s really intriguing to think this solves so many problems possibly including what drove the runaway inflation of the very early universe.

Dark matter may not exist. It’s one solution to a problem in specific theory’s and associated math.

If it constantly replenishes we should make beer out of dark matter.

1. How can force be the opposite direction to acceleration, force causes acceleration so they must by definition be in the same direction. 2. Dark matter is required, because we noticed there isn't enough visible mass to hold the universe together, therefore to fill the dark matter gap it must by definition attract, we invented the idea of dark matter because we need something that attracts like normal mass but is invisible/undetectable in all other ways, therefore the one single defining feature of dark matter is that it has positive mass, its the only thing we know for sure about it.

Lol, love the satire.

"Dark matter" is a placeholder name for something that we don't yet understand. It's that simple, Anton. And it's not just a negative sign that's missing. I really don’t like how you misunderstand or misrepresent stuff. You STILL need to detect ACTUAL negative mass MATTER. It's not just an emergent property of the math once you add a negative sign! What type of particle is this? What other properties does it have (spin, chirality, does it mirror the leptons and bosons of the standard model or is it another fundamental particle)? And you FUNDAMENTALLY misunderstand how science works. We spend money on these things NOT to prove something. Science is experimenting in order to RULE THINGS OUT!!! That's the scientific process. You think of a hypothesis, develop a FALSIFIABLE, rigorous theory, then you experiment to try to disprove it or rule something out to a reasonable level of assurance. Go take a science class, Anton.

Another fascinating tidbit from the The Great Out There. Sir, I salute you.

Liquid Universe is not new, there was a website dedicated to it but removed.

Wouldnt this mean countless more consequences? Is there also negative mass antimatter? Are there negative mass black holes (would that be a white hole?), did negative mass trigger/drive the big bag? Why doesnt the negative mass interact with normal mass or is invisible? If the universe expands, so that makes the positive energy of the universe larger, therefore negative mass pops out of existence all the time? Doesnt that mean, the universe isnt accelerating in its expansion (could be an illusion, of negative mass affected expansion differently back in time / was more concentrated).

The singularity of the super massive black hole in the center of the galaxy creates a bubble between universes. That bubble pushes the nearby universes and creates a negetive mass effect there. Thats what we call dark energy. We cant see it because it not in our universe but we can feel it. Can i get a thumbs up?

The theory you created about dark matter, and how it basically keeps the universe together, sounds like gravity and how it keeps solar systems put together. I think that gravity works with this dark matter in some way. I hope scientists figure out what dark matter is, and also its relation to gravity.

There's theory which explains galaxy rotation curve without dark matter, it calls "Metric dynamics" by Russian scientist Sergei Siparov (or "Anisotropic geometrodynamics", which is expansion of special and general relativity theories), which states (from the second name) that our space is in fact anisotropic. It seem to also explain such unique things as Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall.

A theory to explain a theory.

yes but now we have to look for negative matter which isn't any better than looking for dark matter. Also how can you have less than 0 mass?

I don't know if any of these hypothesis will hold, but negative mass matter would be the best outcome for everyone. It is the "impossible" negative mass of matter that is required in faster than light travel.

"Negative" mass? Well anyway, mathematical simulations are fun but Plasma Cosmology has solved the dark matter problem with something real and not imagined.

Dark matter doesn't exist. It's just an ad hoc hypothesis.

Is "negative matter" just "stuff that doesn't have a good word to say about anything"??

I am very excited. Maybe a particle may be manipulated to create an alcuibire drive. Sorry if I misspelt the name

The implications of Farnes' theory could have a revolutionary impact on physics. "Nevertheless, a theory of negative mass is complicated to assess in relation to other known cosmological results - which have overwhelmingly been developed with the implicit assumption that mass is only positive. For these reasons, nearly all theories, experiments, observations, and physical interpretations need to be rigorously revisited."
