@Rusty Shaklferd Make no mistake: "we" (meaning me at least) already understand(s) these phenomenon. Don't mistake "authority" for "science". I've told you and other about this for years. In a static universe with virtually "contracting" content (objects and time scales), dark matter is "rescaling", as is "red shift", "time frame dilation", "nonlocality", "or "favorable genome selection". Rescaling is a generic property of mapping and a function holding between any two states and among all states (of reality, at any level of mapping).

Indeed considering his main focus was odd things in news or history, very impressed with how well he understands it all and the scripts seem just punchy enough to attract those totally new, yet also a little depth for those who know a bit more. For those who want to learn more, I highly recommend PBS Spacetime for theory and speculations, and Anton Petrov for observations and things currently being puzzled over. Sabine Hosssenfelder is also great but I've not seen much of her stuff yet. Just glad she calls things out like the Religious Zealotry of people obsessing over the unfalsifiable multiverse concepts. It could be true, so what? Cannot ever prove it. Cannot ever get there. I personally am not convinced by the CDM Hypothesis, but I would be happy to be proven wrong. I do think perhaps MOND might have a little truth to it. Our perspective on how gravity works has been entirely Earth-centric until more recently. Also disagreeing measurements over the rate of expansion of the universe causes me to question Dark Energy, which is believed with almost religious fervour. I'm no professional at Physics or anything at all, except I am actually the logical thinker that many think they are, because their egos and emotions tell them they are. Constantly challenging my own assumptions, beliefs and trying to minimise the Confirmation Bias we all have, including me.

I like NDT's take on the term "Dark Matter". He says, it shouldn't really be called "matter", because we don't know if it IS matter. It should be called "Dark Gravity", because all we know about it is it's gravity, but with our understanding of the universe, the only thing which can generate gravity is matter, so we call it this. However, maybe our understanding of the universe is slightly off, and something not matter is making all this extra gravity around us. But he also said at the end that this is just arguing over a name, and there are plenty of theorists out there who are looking for an explanation of this gravity without the need to find this extra invisible mass.

Cool! I was too tired to make this comment about "Dark" "Matter" only being "Something" that we infer or observe as having a Gravitational Influence on Fermionic Matter. As much as I truly love Simon, sadly, he shouldn't keep making Physics Videos, because he's so truly out of his depths that he conveys information that is misleading. Some things might appear to merely be minor nitpicks, but let's be real: everytime there's a Physics video, there are always issues with the very fundamentals... And this, for anyone scientifically oriented, is simply unacceptable, as it's the whole foundation upon which anyone who listens to this thinking they're learning stuff that is faulty and will fail them or make them fail at some point... I used to believe that Simon could present ANYTHING on ANY SUBJECT, but no. These things take Physicists to explain. With the extremely important added bonus that they'll be talking about their passion, about what moves them and fuels their lives and dreams! Such as NDT! Simon still has almost every other subjects available to him!

The Fermi Paradox has never bothered me. Let's assume we are average. It took 13 billion years from T=0 for us to get where we are now, which is life emitting detectable waves out into the universe. Everything we can see that is beyond our immediate proximity is in the past still. We look out at an earlier universe that hasn't caught up to us yet.

And our meti efforts like the aricebo are basically going to be some other civilization's version of the 'wow' signal.

Same here with one gripe; Fermi's paradox. An advanced alien civilization will not be using radio to communicate over vast interstellar distances. It's ridiculously inefficient and ridiculously insecure (even with encryption it still gives away your general location). We've already begun using lasers to communicate with satellites in orbit due to the increased bandwidth it offers. E.T is going to be using lasers or some other crazy technology we haven't discovered yet. And if E.T is not using radio, then we haven't even begun looking for aliens yet -- hence there is no paradox.

@skyhawk_4526
@skyhawk_4526 Жыл бұрын
I'm not sure anyone can actually grasp the concept of nothing. I mean, nothing, after all and by its very definition, simply does not exist. The word is literally the conjunction of the two words "no" and "thing." It's like dividing a whole number by two again and again and again, forever. No matter how many quadrillions of times it's done, you'll still be left with a number each time. In my opinion, infinity (whether or not it is a real thing) is a much easier concept to grasp than the concept of nothing. I would therefore conclude that there is very obviously no such thing as nothing. Given that, how could anyone possibly grasp a concept that is obviously impossible? To put it another way, if one claims that they CAN grasp the concept of nothing, they clearly haven't thought the whole thing through.

A couple of my own ideas. 1. Where is the antimatter? It could actually be out there. As far as I know antimatter's spectra look the sane as regular matter, so maybe some galactic superclusters are antimatter, which might be possible because superclusters are often isolated enough that there might not be much intermingling of matter and antimatter. 2. The Fermi paradox might simply be a combination of distance, and very quiet radio chatter (advanced equipment just doesn't need a super strong signal). Even we're going dark, because we don't need to spew gigawatts of radio to send our data. 3. Dark matter, at this point we seem to be making sh*t up to make our calculations work. 4. Dark Energy, could that simply be the inertia caused by the big bang, which might be resulting in more distant objects receding faster, possibly because those objects are also further back in time. There are a lot of possible simple explanations that fit Occum's razor a bit more eligantly than trying to make up a new particle or saying there are no aliens.

1. Antimatter gives a distinctive signature when it interacts with regular matter. Space is full of dust. If there was any bunch of antimatter, it would light up as it annihilated from the intergalactic dust. 2. Any mildly advanced(we're not) civilization would give off a distinct signature just from the amount of energy they would use. Simple thermodynamics dictates that any large consumption of energy should show up as strong infrared sources. Hiding this signature would be incredibly difficult and would require deliberate effort to mask their existence. Any civilization that would have access to this kind of energy would be able to fully populate an entire galaxy in short order. 3. The Dark Matter phenomenon is an objective measurement that cannot be explained. Dark Matter as a thing is anyone's guess. We're about as sure of Dark Matter existing as gravity existing. Neither can be properly explained. My analogy with gravity is more apt than you think. 4. Far away objects are moving away from us faster than light. This cannot happen because nothing can move through space faster than light. One of the few options remaining is that space itself is expanding.

The main problem with postulating antimatter galaxies or galaxy clusters is that 1. intergalactic space isn't empty, and 2. galaxies aren't fully self-contained. There is matter in intergalactic space, a thinly spread veil of hydrogen and other atoms. And if you had a galaxy made of antimatter, then it's antimatter will inevitably come into contact with the matter in intergalactic space, and the two will annihilate, producing gamma rays. And we would be able to detect this as a faint halo of gamma rays coming from the edges of every antimatter galaxy. Indeed, because of 2, it's even worse than that. Because the material inside galaxies doesn't necessarily stay inside galaxies. Galaxies are constantly ejecting bits of themselves out into intergalactic space, through quasar jets, supernovae explosions, or simple gravitational interactions ejecting asteroids, planets, or even full star systems. All of this material ends up in intergalactic space, to mingle with all the other material ejected by all the other galaxies. Antimatter galaxies would do exactly the same thing. Which means that, if antimatter and matter were equal in amount as theories predicted, then there should be equal numbers of antimatter galaxies spewing antimatter into intergalactic space as there are matter galaxies doing this, and there would therefore be equal amounts of antimatter and matter in intergalactic space. And this of course, means a continuous stream of antimatter-matter encounters with mutual annihilation, producing gamma rays, and we would observe all of intergalactic space positively glowing with a faint shimmer of gamma rays. Which of course, we do not. And even more spectacularly, galaxies and galaxy clusters sometimes merge. And if there were equal numbers of antimatter galaxies as there are matter galaxies in the universe, it should mean that half of all observed in-progress galaxy mergers would involve an antimatter galaxy merging with a matter one, with galactic levels of matter-antimatter annihilation events, and that should be one hell of a spectacular sight which would be utterly impossible for us to miss here on Earth. And we see nothing of the sort.

"Distant objects travel away from us faster than c" This not actually true in ANY reference frame. The reference frame people use when they say this is some sort of a nonlocalised reference frame that does not exist in real life. What we actually see is stuff redshifted into being so dim we cant see it anymore, with the CMB forming an opaque wall behind it all that only LIGO can see through, and LIGO has insufficient resolution to do the job.

I've always liked the theory that dark matter, being only noticed because it has gravity and affects spacetime, is just regular matter in parallel universes. Which would basically mean that the various galaxies in all these parallel universes are holding each other together. Which would also explain why gravity appears to be so much weaker than the other forces. What if gravity only appears to be so weak because it's the only force that propagates through parallel universes. In which case, that would not only mean that parallel universes exist, but that they also affect each other. Meaning that not only could we prove the existence of parallel universes, but that movement between parallel universes might actually be possible.

It’s very difficult for humans to make rockets and get into space, and we are lucky we have the fuel to do so. But even with that, we’ve barely done anything that would be noticeable and we’re centuries away from traveling outside the solar system, and it may actually never happen. Traveling in space and sending signals outside of one’s own solar system I think are just incredibly rare and maybe borderline impossible. The physical laws are what they are and there might not be any loopholes.

Even so, it is somewhat disturbing that we have never seen any even moderately plausible evidence of technological activity from anywhere else, in this galaxy or any others (we have seen a few, very weak pieces of evidence that you could just stretch to accepting if you are willing to go down to "Ancient Aliens" evidentiary standards, but no credible scientist is). It may turn out that at least part of that is because we don't know what we should be looking for, and thus have not recognised evidence that we have seen, and/or that our instruments just aren't good enough yet, but really, neither of those should have been remotely possibly true for at least the last 20 years, minimum. On current evidence, only 2 conclusions are possible. Either we really are alone (as far as technologically advanced species go, at least), or we are the first, or very early at least, and will become the Ancient Aliens...

I'm a doctor of biochemistry. I'm ABSOLUTELY NOT a physicist. But, personally, I don't agree with the dark matter hypothesis. I'm of the belief that we are missing something fundamental when it comes to gravity itself. Edit: As for dark energy, I tend to disagree with that as well. The universe is expanding FASTER than the speed of light. I think gravity, and whatever it is we are missing about it, are what accounts for that impossibly rapid expansion. For anyone who may be interested in alternative (but still scientific) hypothesis and theories, look into Loop Quantum Gravity. It's very interesting.

Two explanations for dark matter: 1) As our gravity is weak because it leaks into different dimensions, gravity from those different dimensions leaks into our realm. 2) Dark matter is from a different realm that shares only 1 or two of our spacial dimensions but not 3, therefore it can not interact with light.

The dual universe hypothesis is derived from trying to explain where all the anti-matter goes. All matter is created with its counterpart that within less than a nanosecond collides and annihilate each other. However, for one in a billion particles something interferes with this interaction. This small interference accounts for all the matter we see today. However, where did the other particle, it's opposite, go? Some suggest that if they are created near black holes, the gravitational pulls on one might be greater than the other, and thus the anti particle gets pulled into the black hole while the particle gets jetted out into space. That, though possible, doesn't help explain the early accounts of matter in the Universe. Thus the theory of a counter universe was considered, a universe that takes in all the other particles of anti-matter and thus is kind of like an opposite but similar universe to our own. Only thing is, there would be no way to tell wish of these two universes we actually existed in. So just be happy we exist at all.

The "Primordial Singularity" doesn't ever change, rather the "Big Bang" scenario is used backwards. Rather than "exploding" (sic) outwards, objects and time-scales internally "contract" within a "background of infinite cosmic potential". Contraction entails "rescaling", which in-turn explains virtually everything, including: red shift, time-frame dilation, "dark" matter & energy, or even favorable genome selection.

I like to think that both Matter and Anti matter have already met and been destroyed, we just have not "witnessed it yet" due to Our perception of Time during a chaotic event.. Much like the relative time dilation one experiences in a car crash. To the Observer out side, It is only an instant, but, for the Occupant observer as the information load increases the perception adjusts to fit .., "It happened as if everything was In Slow motion yet I know it was over in an instant". Thusly, Our experiences are simply a reverberating reflection of an experience long ago unfolded as we were instantaneously snapped into and out of existence. And So, the cycle continues..XP

A female physicist was speaking with Neil Degrassi Tyson about the search for intelligent life in the universe. He asked how much of the observable universe we have searched for extraterrestrial life. She said that if you imagine the entire universe as the world’s oceans, then we have searched the equivalent of an 8 ounce drinking glass. Then she said that if you were trying to prove the existence of fish in the oceans, and you scooped up a glass full of water (which would likely not contain any fish), then does that mean that there are no fish in the ocean because there weren’t any in the glass? No. That would be ridiculous. Same goes for the possibility of intelligent life existing outside of our solar system. The universal scales of time, size, and energy are so inconceivable to our human understanding that the existence of extraterrestrial life is something we don’t even know how to search for successfully yet. We don’t even know what we are looking for to begin with. The only reference we have is our own human experience, which is only but one possible product of evolution that occurred on our own planet in a specific time frame. The possibilities are endless.

The missing mass is dilated mass. We have all heard the phrase "mass becomes infinite at the speed of light" this phenomenon is illustrated in a common relativity graph with velocity (from stationary to the speed of light) on the horizontal line and dilation (sometimes called gamma or y) on the vertical line. Mass that is dilated is smeared through spacetime relative to an outside/stationary/Earthbound observer. Wherever you have an astronomical quantity of mass, dilation will occur because high mass means high momentum. There is no place in the universe where mass is more concentrated than at the center of a galaxy. In the 1939 journal "Annals of Mathematics" Einstein wrote about dilation occurring in regions that would have less mass than that which would exist at the center of common spiral galaxies. Therefore it is safe to say that according to Einstein's math the mass at the center of our own galaxy must be dilated, in other words that mass is all around us. It was recently discovered that low mass galaxies (like NGC 1052-DF2) have normal star rotation rates. This is what relativity would predict because there is an insufficient quantity of mass at the center to achieve relativistic velocities. A simple way to confirm this would be to calculate the star rotation rates of a large number of galaxies. This would show that all the high mass galaxies would have star rotation rates that seem to defy the known laws of physics and all the low mass galaxies would have predictable star rotation rates.
