      @@HistoryoftheUniverse Truly sorry for this undeserved post, you do a fantastic job, love all your channels (History of the earth especially). My comments, except that one, are all laudatory. As a researcher in physics I get often emotionally upset to see modern theoretical physicists crap emphasized in an unbalanced manner by many CZcams channels. I refer to this as dark physics, you know; dark matter, dark energy, dark currents, wormholes and to some extent inflation. This comment was made before I reached the end of the video, were you address the problem in a more balanced manner. My following post was far more temperate, again my humble excuses.
      BTW there is a very simple alternate explanation for the observed homogeneity of space-time, a variable speed of light, as proposed long ago by several physicists. You may think of the space-time (the space-time itself not-the matter it contains) as a substrate that is progressively cooling with time as it expends. In such a frame the speed of light is extremely large just after the big bang. This is a conjecture that respects the parsimony principle. The medias and a deviant part of the scientific community prefer of course something more spectacular.

    It’s simple. The universe began everywhere at once. Every distant point was once together into a singular point so its fair to say that anywhere and everywhere is the center of the universe. The expansion of space happens equally at all points in space because all points in space are the center of the universe.

      Yep they do disagree but I have to admit that they disagree with a vengeance which some times comes across as sour grapes. Whilst I certainly agree that inflation can be wrong, the current state in which the cosmic background radiation fit the inflation model (Microwave Anisotrophy as a function of angle) so well, does give it some credibility though a long way to go. The other models have to many holes right now (like branes bouncing etc which again cannot be proved in any way) and until we do not marry the quantum with GR, though even here I think gravity is not fundemtal but an emergent property...bottom line though, this is so far over my head that I can admit that I really know nothing!

Space-time being seen as a kind of continuous medium (of course these space-time variables are not material temperature and density as space-time is essentially immaterial). Such a variable light speed would have been very large just after the big bang, solving the homogeneity issue. Beside the space-time substrate comes with some form of energy solving also the dark matter issue. They are so many conjectures that we can try outside the standard frame that is obviously in a new form of Aristotle epicycle epoch !

The energy is trying to reach its lowest possible state but is separated from the void ground state by our universe and most likely an infinite number of other (in my assertation) expanding universe bubbles on different dimensional planes completely unrelated to ours. The ultimate point being the expansion caused by dark energy is the infinite energy set trying to reach its lowest possible energy state by expressing itself as more space time in our space. There is more to this train of thought but I don't want to be typing all day. I used to think there was one other universe that could interact weakly through gravity (the idea was dark matter was the 'imprint' of another universe on the other 'side' of our spacetime fabric, but due to some data out of LIGO I have pretty much abandoned this aspect of the interpretation)

    Our universe exists inside the event horizon of a black hole in another universe. That's why the expansion rate varies, it depends on if our black hole is feeding or not.

      All possible mathematical shapes will come out as mathematically possible. Our universe could be flat or so big we cant see the curvature. The thing is both would look virtually identical to us.

    I cannot imagine anyone with a microscope _seeing_ our 3 dimensional universe as "flat."

In fact, I can't even fathom its shaped based on current images and measurements.

    • @fordid42

      The universe itself isn't "flat" looking, it has to do with the geometry of the universe. If we measure three different points in the universe in any direction and then triangulate those points, does the triangulation equal 180 degrees? if so, then the universe is flat. We've had a few satellites up that took measurements to see if the universe is flat, closed, or open, and from what they've measured, it is flat within a +/- 0.4% margin of error.

    Each time I view one of these Universe videos, I get still, very quiet. Taciturn, sad even. I am overwhelmed by feelings I can't possibly understand, much less describe. It must have something to do with my inability to get a grip on how incomprehensibly large, and utterly mysterious, the totality of existence is. That we can even attempt to form theories on the how, when and why of the Universe's existence somehow fills me with a sort of dread. Is this existential dread? Maybe so.

      In 2d Games, the only motion you have control over, are X and Y. Up Down Left and Right
      (+)
      but, on a controller the diagonals count by combining the two, this manifests as the possibility of up to 8-Axis of POV. A D-Pad on a controller is 8-Axis.
      (+x)
      In 3d games, we have X, Y and Z for depth.
      ⥏⇹⥑
      But in 3d games, we use analog sticks, which are still 8 axis of movement, adding sensors for zoom in-out such as a flight sim allows us up to 10.
      ۞
      It's insufficient, and thus controllers have two analog sticks... not usually to move, but if you wanted to move up and down, or left and right as well as side to side and back and forth, you would need a second stick.
      For all intents an analog stick does the same task as any d-pad except with absolute values.
      But it begs the question, what would one analog stick need to be, to have the same completion of control, as an 8-Axis POV switch has over a 2d movement?
      It's interesting that we have the ability to fully tame 2d movement, because of our third dimensional ability... but we don't actually have full mastery of 3d movement in a practical tool without cheating and using our bodies as controllers.
      I find that fascinating. Because it implies to me, a 4d being would have no issues knowing what that controller would look like for a 3d game.........

      Measuring distance in an expanding universe is confusing. The light travelled for 13.7 billion years. When the light started its journey, the distance was (a lot) less than 13.7 billion lightyears. Today, the space it travelled through has expanded to measure about 45 billion light years across. If you were to send a lightray back, it would take much longer than 45 billion years to return, because the same space will expand to an even much larger size in the meantime.
