- Greece is full of wonderful new things and wonderful old things. But when WE become old things, will our ruins also be tourist attractions?

Vsauce: the only CZcams channel that can turn existential dread into fun lil videos.
I love how he throws everything I’ve ever known out the window

I don't care if I'm forgotten; Vsauce videos need to be preserved forever.
Title: "Did the past really happen?"
Everybody Gangster until Newton pulls out his flaming laser sword.
Imagine at the end of your life, you peacefully pass away and then boom, they take off your vr headset and ask “so how was it”
Its very amusing to see that what I learned last year in school as laws of thermodynamics , entropy ,enthalpy are bases of many theories and I can actually start to understand the world more efficiently, it gives me motivation to dive even deeper in the depths of physics and chemistry
"Newton flaming laser sword" and they say phillosphers are boring.

This is one of my favorite vsauce videos. Both scientific and philosophical at the same time as almost every other video of him, but there's something that touches me in a peculiar way...
Me:
I'm not lazy. I'm saving the universe
First time I’ve seen this channel and I’m already hooked. Great content very well presented!
That made me think of the universe's entropy. As the entropy must increase, and the galaxies, stars and black holes holds it together, the only way the universe could maintain it is by expanding faster and faster. By expanding, the universe can maintain the expanding overall entropy. Which means that when galaxies, stars and black holes die out, it will inevitably reverse the expansion again in order to maintain entropy.
