Dear Robert, thanks again for those very high quality interviews. Let me try to show some perspective from science philosophy. Please excuse me if it is something that you are already familiar with. Our idea that scientific progress would probably reach an end (a final theory) is biased because of our imprisonment within some paradigm. Paradigms do reach a limit of understanding, and when we are on the edge of the paradigm, we really think we are very close to an end, still very far. So we feel some anguish. But the paradigm is only a set of fundamental axioms and postulates, that will allow lots of development in its beggining and face a tough time in its end. Thomas Kuhn stated that, when acquiring a paradigm, the scientific and intellectual community also acquires a criterion for choosing problems that, as long as the paradigm is accepted, will be considered as having a possible solution. If we are on the edge of a paradigm, we are not on the edge of proper knowledge about reality, bot only on the edge of the paradigm's limits. When we could adhere to a new paradigm, we feel relief, but it is only because of the possibilities of another newbie set of axioms and postulates. It is not easy for us to recognize that our questions are conditioned by their own possible answers in a non causal relationship. Questions do only exist because we know how to ask. Best regards and thanks again. Best YT science channel ever.
@@simesaid Your not making any sense. I believe in God and science. They are not mutually exclusive. In fact God invented science. Man is the free moral agent which needs to be checked. See a man can look at something like a giraffe and say it must be related to a horse. Then over time the evidence comes in and we find out these two creatures are not close to similar. Their DNA is very different , bones are different, circular system is different, brains are different. Even the parts that look the same are different. In fact the whole common ancestry theory falls apart. Today it is rejected by science. This is why evolutionists have had to change their stories. Facts will ruin a good story.

It all depends on the tool used to figure out how it works, which is our brain. Complexity is all relative. What is the universe to an ant? The human brain may be at the top level of complexity, fully capable to figure out things that are of similar complexity, like the universe. But that doesn't mean that it's simple, just that we're in the end game so to speak.
@@charlieboy2587 When you think about it first it had to take 3.5 billion years for the mind to evolve that could maybe answer the question in 400 years.
@@charlieboy2587 No no just saying that if 400 years of discoveries would be sufficient it wouldn't actually be 400 years because there is more than that.
Certainly.y one of the best episodes because it brings together a number of leading conceptual ideas outside the norm. FYI. Lawrence Krause is now shunned by his peers, book publishers and other cancel culture sensitive institutions and enterprises. Seems he had a slight problem when interacting with one of his female students. Even Sean Carroll made a snide remark about Krause. I’m not making a commentary, other than he was/is, one of the brightest in his field.
What's very interesting too is that these theories seem to form in the imagination first and then materializes. Not just through what observed almost like something is calling us to discover it on a timeline. Like we are the universe discovering it's own consciousness.
is not actually like that, is not imagination isolated, is imagination applied to try to explain something that is not explained, at the end nature is the input and the final judge. and the other part yes, someone say, we are just the universe looking at itself.
I think your the universe and man are waiting to be discovered. Science is pointing to God creating everything. We need to stop with evolutionary stories that have no evidence.
Yes, anyone who spends time thinking about QM and GR ends up realizing we’re just the universe looking at itself, information reflecting itself. After all, what are we but ‘part’ of the universe? I think Penrose is right that gravity is linked somehow to how things become one thing or the other, that there are base universal constants revealing the frequency of reality we see.
Isaac Asimov said he believed knowledge was "fractal in nature." I would infer from that, it is (exponentially) new questions all the way down. Philosophers and scientists will have job security till the end of time.
Science is measuring the Universe... it's not blah blah blah.. unless you don't mind ideas like a universe that fits in one of my dots... in which case.. it's not science.. it's magic
Kuhn on Sheldrake: "conjuring up organising principles that almost certainly do not exist". The term "almost certainly" is the standard put down in the absence of a better theory.
@@all_is_1485 I find the premise of the series less than honest. It often seems like a desperate attempt to shore up a bankrupt materialist model, or at least frame materialism as a gold standard against which other philosophies are judged. There is no attempt to address why Sheldrake's model is flawed, it's an easy scalp to add to the narration of wholesale doubt. The series is about materialist metaphysics, not true scepticism. It reminds me of Dawkins' claim that "God almost certainly does not exist", without any attempt at statistical likelihood or philosophical rigour.
@@mikemoore9694 It would only be easy if it functioned within the limitations of reductionist materialism. I don't believe Sheldrake is suggesting it works in that billiard ball paradigm. You have to believe matter exhausts reality in its entirety to adopt that approach.
21:21 I don't know about his understanding of Quantum Mechanics. The whole conscious observer thing is kinda pop science at this point isn't it? You do not need a living thing to collapse a wave function. Any measurement device, or really any macroscopic thing capable of being entangled with a quantum system can collapse a wave function. A camera with no human looking at the camera can collect it. A detector with no human there can collapse it. You would have to suggest that the camera or detector device also has consciousness however you define it, and by extension yield that inanimate objects have whatever your definition of consciousness is. But I would say that that definition would ultimately boil down to being the ability to be entangled with a quantum system, which if that's the definition, then yeah sure everything has consciousness to some degree at least because everything obeys quantum mechanics. But what is special about that? I really don't quite subscribe to the whole consciousness theory stuff. It's interesting, but it's not quite there. I don't think it's the right direction and is overly glorifying this idea of consciousness because we have it and asserting that it must be special because we have it and it's so amazing, and even more boldly, trying to assert that a Physicalist model can never explain or understand or account for consciousness.
I believe that if this camera would store it's information in a quantum state object itself (so a Schrodingers cat-esque device that would delete the information on certain states), the initial wave function wouldn't have collapsed yet.
No Pls I agree. The devices are consciously built so perhaps that’s enough, but whether or not they’ll be analyzed at some point is the real question. If yes, did the universe know? If no, then is the information even captured? -We know information has a way of going backward through time to change data during the delayed choice experiments. But I dunno. My guess is there’s more to the role of consciousness in the overall experience of reality, more than science is willing to play with just yet, and since all we experience is what we can see and what our devices can pick up, perhaps that’s where the intimacy between consciousness and fine-tuning lay? And if somehow we’d ere able to build devices that could pick up higher dimensions would we begin to collapse higher and higher wave functions and gain access...? Again, I dunno.
As much as finding “answers” is pleasurable, personally playing with the the questions to be more so. Guess that sentiment is simply a reformulation of “ooh, shiny!”
I like this channel partly because of the mostly mature and relative comments.Some you agree some you don't however-apart from individuals with irrelative and non-scientific political agenda's -all worth reading...
“The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.” ― Nikola Tesla
Only way science can go beyond it's hierarchical structure of experimental knowledge is with same scientific methodology, every day some project come to projected conclusions and something new is discovered on very edge of what is known. We can see islands of new knowledge our there, but our sphere of known facts can't build bridges over darkness, must grow from all sides at same time and one day it will became so big those islands in a distance will be enveloped in it's structure.
Tesla grew up with the idea that some guy made our Universe in 6 seconds or less.... unfortunately, it skews the math so much A Einstein and R Feynman both started from the wrong place, a finite universe, with infities at all the other relative properties.. the faster we travel the more mass we have.. the slower Time passes.. at 300Mm/sec Time stops.. and mass becomes infinite.. infinite mass requires infinite energy to move... and zero Time is ==>> clearly impossible A Einstein told us that god does not play dice with the Universe.. he was a believer.. in magic.. and he also failed to include the passage of light in all directions from any source of light, other than a collimated laser light... which travels in a straight line.... when a point source of light emits a photon, it's hydrogen atoms going up one quantum step, and if it can stay up in that orbit, it allows light to pass through.. if it drops back to the base state immediately, it gives off a photon at the same wavelength as the light that excites it.. this is the fundamentals of R Feynman's Quantum Electrodynamics.. QED.. and the parent atom is going round and round really really fast, and the photon is actually attached to it and travels round and round right with the parent atom.. it travels a spiral path, like a satellite in a geodesic orbit that covers the entire spherical vortex..because that's what quraks and atoms are.. with a space filling spiral that led R Feynman to say all particles are spheres... that's what they look like, sure enough.. but it doesn't explain why they do what they do.. jiggling he called it. Einstein spent a lot of time looking at Brownian motion.. seen in dust particles in a glass of water.. the atoms of water are not attached to each other.. and this space filling spiral creates the absolutely random motion of atoms in water, air.. vacuum.. and everything else.. ☆☆☆ the area of the surface of a sphere is 2 pi r³.. cubed.. but to any observer the light observed in one direction also has the opposite direction to account for.. the speed of light should be squared.. as in ==>> E = Mc².. second per second acceleration does not stop the first second.. we have been measuring the radius
science is not really blah blah blah and theory.. even theory requires mathematics... if you don't see the math It's not science.. and, as far as measuring ideas instilled by religion and other methods of getting people to think alike.. it's like proving the existence of god.. it's impossible to measure something that is not really there... we are stuck measuring the Universe as it really is
There is so much beyond physics. So much that we have no idea how much there is beyond it. We already know that metaphysics is beyond physics, but that is just the start.
It might all come down to the sensitivity and complexity of our measuring instruments. And we have just begun our trip up the steep learning curve of ever-evolving computing power.
Great video and great topic. I have often thought about this myself. What major discoveries do we not know that future scientists will discover. What do we believe now that is totally wrong. Will we ever know everything? Personally I don't think we ever will.
I believe that consciousness is the missing link between nothingness and creation. In a looping Darwinian evolutionary circle which is also including space and time in its intermediate steps.
We have a million radical ideas of how things could really be, we have mathematicians who given a reason to do the math on it would crank out everything needed for it to be scientific. But to really move into any direction we would first need experimental proof for anything beyond the standard model. And physicists performed all kinds of experiments and see nothing particularly weird. Yet todays physics is hopelessly unable to give insight on conciousness, free will, memory, why big bang, purpose, multiverse, dark matter. So what to do? Unless aliens land and explain stuff to us there really is not much hope left. Like, what if humans just aren't supposed to achieve anything and our purpose here is just some stupid spirituality nonsense. That would suck... We cant even figure out how to make use of nuclear fusion, the standard way of making energy in the universe...
Excellent point! But, to realize that our own capacity to understand that which goes beyond our own limits, our own “truths”, go myself anyway, it escapes the defined perimeters that what we call science have “supposedly” proven true or false.
Physics itself may be considered to be a very general term, referring to all of science. However, it has been suggested by many philosophers and scientists alike that there are certain physical limitations on our universe. Of course, this depends entirely on reality being consistent in its own laws which we have not yet discovered. If these limitations exist then they most likely do so at an extremely small scale level - probably too small for us to ever measure or experiment with as humans. One example which has been proposed by a great number of people is the idea that there are limitations to our universe due to it being located within a black hole. This would place an upper limit on the size and age of our universe - although it could be argued that an infinite amount of universes may exist within each black hole, writing off any limitation. Another possibility is that there are limitations to our universe due to symmetry breaking. This could be what caused the Big Bang, and perhaps we live within a bubble of spacetime which contains our entire universe (although I am uncertain as to how this may be possible). If so then it would mean that outside of these bubbles there may exist many other universes with completely different laws from ours. Of course, there are many other possibilities of what may be 'beyond physics' or the 'end of our universe'. If we were to live in a multiverse then perhaps there could exist beings which can manipulate spacetime and matter at will - these would most likely be extremely alien from us. We might also exist within an artificial simulation (although this is unlikely due to the extreme amount of energy required). Maybe even God himself exists outside these laws. Of course, there is no real evidence for any of this and it may all be complete nonsense. However, these ideas get us thinking about the nature of our universe in an abstract way which we humans find fascinating.
Compelling Point Hmm? Picture Unlimited...not infinity but Unlimited Large sphere, and Unlimited Small sphere meeting! What is there But two Flat spheres and Two flat culminating in “T” !
I'm with Rupert. Physics evolves. Like, the speed of light is, in a way, faster now than it was a billion years ago. I think this because of expansion. Light doesn't travel a mile any faster than it ever did but, a mile is now longer than it was in the beginning. Everything is expanding together so we don't see it. There's no way to gain perspective. We'll need a way to disconnect from the universe and see what it does without us. From the outside looking in. I think as the universe gets bigger, new smaller things are added. Maybe by a designer, a programmer and yes, maybe a creator. When we finally get close to finding the smallest thing in the universe, the building block of everything, a new and invisible smallest thing will be added. Something for us to continue to look for.
There is no bottom. Everything loops on itself. You know, the idea of the expanding universe popped out automatically from Einstein's theory of general relativity as he considered a 4D spacetime containing matter, would actually appear to be expanding 3D spatial coordinates. This was the first theoretical hint of an expanding universe. Also note that for some reason the Poincare conjecture in 4D space is unknown. Why should this be the case? Is there a relation that points out the reason as to why we tend to find ourselves living in a 3D world? Plus there are reasons why you cannot expect reality to have a fundamental theory and these are very precise logical reasons. For any theory is nothing but a prescription of evolution of entities in some space, and every mathematical theory relies on the truth value of its axioms, and moreover, if such a formal mathematical system does exist, it would never be able to determine the validity of its axioms itself. Who or what is the final arbiter for the axioms of reality? If indeed such a set of axioms do exist, then why are they there and why not some other axioms? A cyclical theory however makes much more logical sense than a one shot clockwork Universe, obeying stringent laws of action. Quantum theory might be incomplete, but in one way it is pointing us towards this case, that you cannot have determinate laws. It might be chaos in the bottom, out of which self-organization happens every so often that somehow reality like this Universe, emerges. Afterall, if life is indeed observed in our Universe, we must, as physicists, consider the serious possibility that any fundamental theory of the Universe must ultimately describe how it creates self-organizing, self-reflecting entities. Why is it that this Universe must contain sentient life at all and not just dumb, entropic forms of complex systems. As to what reality is made out of, I think consciousness is a safe bet. We don't know the ontological status of consciousness, but that it is present in abundance in the Universe. Nothing about physics screams consciousness. There is motion, charge attraction, inertia, but not consciousness. Nothing about the neurons firing behind my eyeballs tell me that there is a youtube video playing in front of me. Why should photons hitting on a random retina connected to a random brain, have to mean or feel like something? The only way to understand consciousness would be through consciousness, and that is circular in itself.
So Your saying that your hypothesis for the origins of the universe is a cyclic cosmic theory that will result in gravity becoming the dominant force of the universe which means that dark energy is underestimated. Galaxies will combine, chaos will be widespread throughout the universe and black holes will be be the only things that will exist. Black holes consume each other, eventually a black hole will have the mass of the entire universe( kind of like a game of agario) and then the universe will collapse. Then it will turn inside out and Big Bang itself again. There is a flaw in that argument. Now for the time being, dark energy and dark matter is everywhere in the universe and is repulsive that is why the universe is expanding ever so rapidly that gravity cannot keep up with the expansion rate of the universe. The universe will die in a cold death where energy will be so low that it will be at its resting point or the zero point energy. However, given enough time the universe will begin to create quantum tunneling which can create a new Big Bang but this is very unprobable and happened very rarely. I would like to ask a question to you, do you believe that their is sort of metaphysical play into your idea of how the universe began and how it is going to die or is it just physics to you? I believe there is something powerful than the multiverse hypothesis kind of an eternal trans dimensional entity that can create universe/realities and is not understable to us because of our limited knowledge and language to describe this entity.
@Dd S well maybe what i believe is moot, after all i'm just a high school senior kid with honors physics and Ap chemistry but is the cyclic cosmos theory and the multiverse theory moot because it is irrelevant and untestable? Many physcists believe in a 11 dimensional eternal hyperspace known as a bulk yet it is by your standards "moot" because we cant test it. Come on bro its a theory and people are inclined to believe their theory of everything. Doenst make much difference. Its absurd
Dd S smh speaculation has the similar definition of “up in the air”. It seems that your definition of fiction is subjective and while I am allowed to speculate on what created the universe, you say it is fiction because it is untestable in our universe(root word for one reality in Greek). You shut down any possibility for a theory of everything and because what I say conflicts with your view of how the universe is created, you call it fiction. I think you think I’m talking about a creator god, and by definition it may be god, I mean if it walks like a duck and if it quacks like a duck. To be honest, I don’t care what it is, it’s a theory. I mean Jesus, who made you the Hitler to differentiate what is fact and what is fiction.
“Morphic Resonance’ at 13:00 seems an interesting concept with some validity to it. So are the holographic universe at 18:00 and in/outside the universe law views of Paul Davies and at 21:00 David Chalmers thoughts of consciousness. I am glad Robert is willing to concede there’s more than this physical world to explore.
I suspect all we will find is stranger physics. It still has the first cause problem. How far can the layers go. And will technology advance far enough to confirm the models.
@@jackieswan422 Funny !! Since we can't cross paths. This reality is all we have. Or is another reality all we have. I think we are making it seem way more complicated than it is.
Has Paul Davies ever considered that the physical Universe we occupy is just the theoretical opposite of what's outside of it? What's outside of our physical universe likely turned inside out at the time of the big bang.
Wonderful presentation. Complex matters dealt in simple understandable language. Loved it. I tend to agree with the proposed idea of consciousness which will make the universe a living entity and not a slave to physical laws. This has to be approached with an open mind with a realisation that complete truth is yet to be revealed. Maybe a little less of rigidity and a little more of humility might help. I also tend to agree that the universal laws which govern the working of our universe would be simp,e rather than complex. Great presentation.
Physics is a man made tool for analyzing the physical world. Using that tool we are constantly learning new things associated with the physical world. Our tool is always being improved, and our concepts often changed based on new understanding. For all practical purposes, the universe (with or without anything that may exist beyond), is infinite to us. In other words, our field of discovery is endless and it seems highly likely physics will stick with us till the last physical mystery is unraveled.
It is a pity that the subtitles do not agree with the voice. For those os us who are not mother tongue, it is a great effort to understand what is said in the video (dialogues) I hope you consider this. Thank you
A superb programme. The intro, about two minutes gave me goosebumps, absolutely brilliant. Kuhn himself is a treasure and has such a wonderful knowledge of all the Closer To The Truth programmes. Laurence Krauss is a diamond in our society. Absolutely a wonderful programme in a wonderful collection. A tribute to humanity.
Reality has more to it than just physical elements, it has to have spiritual non-physical elements as well, which ofcourse cannot be comprehended by physicists in its entirety.
Lawrence Krauss is the type of man to have to take a piss but instead of going to the bathroom, he invites Robert into a hot lake so they can keep the interview going while he relieves himself.

Dear Robert, thanks again for those very high quality interviews.
Let me try to show some perspective from science philosophy. Please excuse me if it is something that you are already familiar with.
Our idea that scientific progress would probably reach an end (a final theory) is biased because of our imprisonment within some paradigm.
Paradigms do reach a limit of understanding, and when we are on the edge of the paradigm, we really think we are very close to an end, still very far. So we feel some anguish.
But the paradigm is only a set of fundamental axioms and postulates, that will allow lots of development in its beggining and face a tough time in its end. Thomas Kuhn stated that, when acquiring a paradigm, the scientific and intellectual
community also acquires a criterion for choosing problems that, as long as the paradigm is accepted, will be considered as having a possible solution.
If we are on the edge of a paradigm, we are not on the edge of proper knowledge about reality, bot only on the edge of the paradigm's limits.
When we could adhere to a new paradigm, we feel relief, but it is only because of the possibilities of another newbie set of axioms and postulates.
It is not easy for us to recognize that our questions are conditioned by their own possible answers in a non causal relationship. Questions do only exist because we know how to ask.
Best regards and thanks again. Best YT science channel ever.

If 400 years of discoveries would be sufficient to know how this world works it would mean that creator of this world was rather simple being.

11:50 😂👏 One of the most brilliant things I've ever heard. Instead of "Laws" "Habbits"...that have evolved over a very long time.
thank you for interviewing Sheldrake.
I enjoy this series, the appearances of characters like Lawrence Kraut and the bottomless pit discussions about religion notwithstanding
What's very interesting too is that these theories seem to form in the imagination first and then materializes. Not just through what observed almost like something is calling us to discover it on a timeline. Like we are the universe discovering it's own consciousness.
If you do this at School they throw a (hardback) book at you for day dreaming 🤣
is not actually like that, is not imagination isolated, is imagination applied to try to explain something that is not explained, at the end nature is the input and the final judge. and the other part yes, someone say, we are just the universe looking at itself.
I think your the universe and man are waiting to be discovered.
Science is pointing to God creating everything. We need to stop with evolutionary stories that have no evidence.
@@solonkazos1379 says who? To the contrary. Pointing to God is a regressive argument, ie, who or what created God. God-of-the-gaps is a cop out
Yes, anyone who spends time thinking about QM and GR ends up realizing we’re just the universe looking at itself, information reflecting itself. After all, what are we but ‘part’ of the universe? I think Penrose is right that gravity is linked somehow to how things become one thing or the other, that there are base universal constants revealing the frequency of reality we see.
Morphic resonance, what a beautiful concept, beautifully explained.
wow. Paul Davies blew my mind. haven't heard that idea before but I think he's completely right.
I love that he brings up conciousness. Suprise. The soul is fact not faith. The soul is quantum mechanical in nature.
13:50 he's describing a fractal.
Wow, he just blew my mind with morphic resonance. It aligns and expands on my own intuitions.
Isaac Asimov said he believed knowledge was "fractal in nature."
I would infer from that, it is (exponentially) new questions all the way down.
Philosophers and scientists will have job security till the end of time.
Or at least until Multivac goes online.
I agree
There will always be gaps for science and our imaginations to fill.
Science is measuring the Universe... it's not blah blah blah.. unless you don't mind ideas like a universe that fits in one of my dots... in which case.. it's not science.. it's magic

Wonderful episode🙂 Rupert Sheldrake’s Morphic Fields hypothesis is brilliant👍
Kuhn on Sheldrake: "conjuring up organising principles that almost certainly do not exist". The term "almost certainly" is the standard put down in the absence of a better theory.
Borderlands the sheer pomposity and arrogance of his statement. I wonder if he feels the same way about quantum entanglement!
@@all_is_1485 I find the premise of the series less than honest. It often seems like a desperate attempt to shore up a bankrupt materialist model, or at least frame materialism as a gold standard against which other philosophies are judged. There is no attempt to address why Sheldrake's model is flawed, it's an easy scalp to add to the narration of wholesale doubt. The series is about materialist metaphysics, not true scepticism. It reminds me of Dawkins' claim that "God almost certainly does not exist", without any attempt at statistical likelihood or philosophical rigour.
Borderlands couldn’t have said it better. Thanks
It should be easy to design an experiment to prove ‘morphic resonance’ exists. Sheldrake hasn’t published as far as I know. I wonder why?
@@mikemoore9694 It would only be easy if it functioned within the limitations of reductionist materialism. I don't believe Sheldrake is suggesting it works in that billiard ball paradigm. You have to believe matter exhausts reality in its entirety to adopt that approach.
The more we understand what exists beyond our current understanding, the more we will discover about the paranormal and supernatural
He is the Anthony Bourdain of science. I love his spirit of inquiry and his accompanying narrative.
21:21 I don't know about his understanding of Quantum Mechanics. The whole conscious observer thing is kinda pop science at this point isn't it? You do not need a living thing to collapse a wave function. Any measurement device, or really any macroscopic thing capable of being entangled with a quantum system can collapse a wave function. A camera with no human looking at the camera can collect it. A detector with no human there can collapse it.
You would have to suggest that the camera or detector device also has consciousness however you define it, and by extension yield that inanimate objects have whatever your definition of consciousness is.
But I would say that that definition would ultimately boil down to being the ability to be entangled with a quantum system, which if that's the definition, then yeah sure everything has consciousness to some degree at least because everything obeys quantum mechanics. But what is special about that?
I really don't quite subscribe to the whole consciousness theory stuff. It's interesting, but it's not quite there. I don't think it's the right direction and is overly glorifying this idea of consciousness because we have it and asserting that it must be special because we have it and it's so amazing, and even more boldly, trying to assert that a Physicalist model can never explain or understand or account for consciousness.
I believe that if this camera would store it's information in a quantum state object itself (so a Schrodingers cat-esque device that would delete the information on certain states), the initial wave function wouldn't have collapsed yet.
No Pls I agree. The devices are consciously built so perhaps that’s enough, but whether or not they’ll be analyzed at some point is the real question. If yes, did the universe know? If no, then is the information even captured? -We know information has a way of going backward through time to change data during the delayed choice experiments. But I dunno. My guess is there’s more to the role of consciousness in the overall experience of reality, more than science is willing to play with just yet, and since all we experience is what we can see and what our devices can pick up, perhaps that’s where the intimacy between consciousness and fine-tuning lay? And if somehow we’d ere able to build devices that could pick up higher dimensions would we begin to collapse higher and higher wave functions and gain access...? Again, I dunno.
If we are until now don't know the right questions you can only imagine how far we are from the answers.
As much as finding “answers” is pleasurable, personally playing with the the questions to be more so.
Guess that sentiment is simply a reformulation of “ooh, shiny!”
I would really like to see a whole show with you interviewing Dr. Jordan Peterson. That would be a very good show.
I like this channel partly because of the mostly mature and relative comments.Some you agree some you don't however-apart from individuals with irrelative and non-scientific political agenda's -all worth reading...
“The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.”
― Nikola Tesla
Only way science can go beyond it's hierarchical structure of experimental knowledge is with same scientific methodology, every day some project come to projected conclusions and something new is discovered on very edge of what is known. We can see islands of new knowledge our there, but our sphere of known facts can't build bridges over darkness, must grow from all sides at same time and one day it will became so big those islands in a distance will be enveloped in it's structure.
Hey Frank... thanks for sharing that quote by Tesla. I really like it.
That's what i believe to
Tesla grew up with the idea that some guy made our Universe in 6 seconds or less.... unfortunately, it skews the math so much A Einstein and R Feynman both started from the wrong place, a finite universe, with infities at all the other relative properties.. the faster we travel the more mass we have.. the slower Time passes.. at 300Mm/sec Time stops.. and mass becomes infinite.. infinite mass requires infinite energy to move... and zero Time is ==>> clearly impossible
A Einstein told us that god does not play dice with the Universe.. he was a believer.. in magic.. and he also failed to include the passage of light in all directions from any source of light, other than a collimated laser light... which travels in a straight line.... when a point source of light emits a photon, it's hydrogen atoms going up one quantum step, and if it can stay up in that orbit, it allows light to pass through.. if it drops back to the base state immediately, it gives off a photon at the same wavelength as the light that excites it.. this is the fundamentals of R Feynman's Quantum Electrodynamics.. QED.. and the parent atom is going round and round really really fast, and the photon is actually attached to it and travels round and round right with the parent atom.. it travels a spiral path, like a satellite in a geodesic orbit that covers the entire spherical vortex..because that's what quraks and atoms are.. with a space filling spiral that led R Feynman to say all particles are spheres... that's what they look like, sure enough.. but it doesn't explain why they do what they do.. jiggling he called it. Einstein spent a lot of time looking at Brownian motion.. seen in dust particles in a glass of water.. the atoms of water are not attached to each other.. and this space filling spiral creates the absolutely random motion of atoms in water, air.. vacuum.. and everything else.. ☆☆☆
the area of the surface of a sphere is 2 pi r³.. cubed.. but to any observer the light observed in one direction also has the opposite direction to account for.. the speed of light should be squared.. as in ==>> E = Mc².. second per second acceleration does not stop the first second.. we have been measuring the radius
science is not really blah blah blah and theory.. even theory requires mathematics... if you don't see the math It's not science.. and, as far as measuring ideas instilled by religion and other methods of getting people to think alike.. it's like proving the existence of god.. it's impossible to measure something that is not really there... we are stuck measuring the Universe as it really is

There is so much beyond physics. So much that we have no idea how much there is beyond it. We already know that metaphysics is beyond physics, but that is just the start.
It might all come down to the sensitivity and complexity of our measuring instruments. And we have just begun our trip up the steep learning curve of ever-evolving computing power.
CG Jung would like the morphic resonance idea...excellent description of the Collective Unconscious and its effect on our minds.
Great video and great topic. I have often thought about this myself. What major discoveries do we not know that future scientists will discover. What do we believe now that is totally wrong. Will we ever know everything? Personally I don't think we ever will.
We never will, because nature is infinitely magnificent
Impossible, we never can.
I believe that consciousness is the missing link between nothingness and creation. In a looping Darwinian evolutionary circle which is also including space and time in its intermediate steps.

@@GeoCoppens Good evening my flatten-er...
@@thoel1 Too dumb for words!
Rupert Sheldrake's "morphic ressonance" sounds like it came straight out of ancient Greek philosophy.
You think you are getting closer to truth, but the truth keeps receding from you as you progress.
We have a million radical ideas of how things could really be, we have mathematicians who given a reason to do the math on it would crank out everything needed for it to be scientific. But to really move into any direction we would first need experimental proof for anything beyond the standard model. And physicists performed all kinds of experiments and see nothing particularly weird. Yet todays physics is hopelessly unable to give insight on conciousness, free will, memory, why big bang, purpose, multiverse, dark matter. So what to do? Unless aliens land and explain stuff to us there really is not much hope left. Like, what if humans just aren't supposed to achieve anything and our purpose here is just some stupid spirituality nonsense. That would suck... We cant even figure out how to make use of nuclear fusion, the standard way of making energy in the universe...
Excellent point! But, to realize that our own capacity to understand that which goes beyond our own limits, our own “truths”, go myself anyway, it escapes the defined perimeters that what we call science have “supposedly” proven true or false.
Physics itself may be considered to be a very general term, referring to all of science. However, it has been suggested by many philosophers and scientists alike that there are certain physical limitations on our universe. Of course, this depends entirely on reality being consistent in its own laws which we have not yet discovered. If these limitations exist then they most likely do so at an extremely small scale level - probably too small for us to ever measure or experiment with as humans.
One example which has been proposed by a great number of people is the idea that there are limitations to our universe due to it being located within a black hole. This would place an upper limit on the size and age of our universe - although it could be argued that an infinite amount of universes may exist within each black hole, writing off any limitation.
Another possibility is that there are limitations to our universe due to symmetry breaking. This could be what caused the Big Bang, and perhaps we live within a bubble of spacetime which contains our entire universe (although I am uncertain as to how this may be possible). If so then it would mean that outside of these bubbles there may exist many other universes with completely different laws from ours.
Of course, there are many other possibilities of what may be 'beyond physics' or the 'end of our universe'. If we were to live in a multiverse then perhaps there could exist beings which can manipulate spacetime and matter at will - these would most likely be extremely alien from us. We might also exist within an artificial simulation (although this is unlikely due to the extreme amount of energy required). Maybe even God himself exists outside these laws.
Of course, there is no real evidence for any of this and it may all be complete nonsense. However, these ideas get us thinking about the nature of our universe in an abstract way which we humans find fascinating.
Several compelling points there..;-j
This is wow-material. Thanks for the read!
Compelling Point Hmm? Picture Unlimited...not infinity but Unlimited Large sphere, and Unlimited Small sphere meeting! What is there But two Flat spheres and Two flat culminating in “T” !
@@grattata4364 Thanks!
@@Scribe13013 Thanks!
I'm with Rupert. Physics evolves. Like, the speed of light is, in a way, faster now than it was a billion years ago. I think this because of expansion. Light doesn't travel a mile any faster than it ever did but, a mile is now longer than it was in the beginning. Everything is expanding together so we don't see it. There's no way to gain perspective. We'll need a way to disconnect from the universe and see what it does without us. From the outside looking in. I think as the universe gets bigger, new smaller things are added. Maybe by a designer, a programmer and yes, maybe a creator. When we finally get close to finding the smallest thing in the universe, the building block of everything, a new and invisible smallest thing will be added. Something for us to continue to look for.
Why can't we just appreciate that all that exist is infinity and everything can, and exist in infinity?
Wow, you crank out videos like every day it seems. A lot of work has to go into these between travel, shooting, editing, etc.. How do you do it?!
There is no bottom. Everything loops on itself. You know, the idea of the expanding universe popped out automatically from Einstein's theory of general relativity as he considered a 4D spacetime containing matter, would actually appear to be expanding 3D spatial coordinates. This was the first theoretical hint of an expanding universe.
Also note that for some reason the Poincare conjecture in 4D space is unknown. Why should this be the case? Is there a relation that points out the reason as to why we tend to find ourselves living in a 3D world?
Plus there are reasons why you cannot expect reality to have a fundamental theory and these are very precise logical reasons. For any theory is nothing but a prescription of evolution of entities in some space, and every mathematical theory relies on the truth value of its axioms, and moreover, if such a formal mathematical system does exist, it would never be able to determine the validity of its axioms itself. Who or what is the final arbiter for the axioms of reality? If indeed such a set of axioms do exist, then why are they there and why not some other axioms?
A cyclical theory however makes much more logical sense than a one shot clockwork Universe, obeying stringent laws of action. Quantum theory might be incomplete, but in one way it is pointing us towards this case, that you cannot have determinate laws. It might be chaos in the bottom, out of which self-organization happens every so often that somehow reality like this Universe, emerges.
Afterall, if life is indeed observed in our Universe, we must, as physicists, consider the serious possibility that any fundamental theory of the Universe must ultimately describe how it creates self-organizing, self-reflecting entities. Why is it that this Universe must contain sentient life at all and not just dumb, entropic forms of complex systems.
As to what reality is made out of, I think consciousness is a safe bet. We don't know the ontological status of consciousness, but that it is present in abundance in the Universe. Nothing about physics screams consciousness. There is motion, charge attraction, inertia, but not consciousness. Nothing about the neurons firing behind my eyeballs tell me that there is a youtube video playing in front of me. Why should photons hitting on a random retina connected to a random brain, have to mean or feel like something?
The only way to understand consciousness would be through consciousness, and that is circular in itself.
Blah, blah, blah.
So Your saying that your hypothesis for the origins of the universe is a cyclic cosmic theory that will result in gravity becoming the dominant force of the universe which means that dark energy is underestimated. Galaxies will combine, chaos will be widespread throughout the universe and black holes will be be the only things that will exist. Black holes consume each other, eventually a black hole will have the mass of the entire universe( kind of like a game of agario) and then the universe will collapse. Then it will turn inside out and Big Bang itself again. There is a flaw in that argument. Now for the time being, dark energy and dark matter is everywhere in the universe and is repulsive that is why the universe is expanding ever so rapidly that gravity cannot keep up with the expansion rate of the universe. The universe will die in a cold death where energy will be so low that it will be at its resting point or the zero point energy. However, given enough time the universe will begin to create quantum tunneling which can create a new Big Bang but this is very unprobable and happened very rarely. I would like to ask a question to you, do you believe that their is sort of metaphysical play into your idea of how the universe began and how it is going to die or is it just physics to you? I believe there is something powerful than the multiverse hypothesis kind of an eternal trans dimensional entity that can create universe/realities and is not understable to us because of our limited knowledge and language to describe this entity.
@Dd S well maybe what i believe is moot, after all i'm just a high school senior kid with honors physics and Ap chemistry but is the cyclic cosmos theory and the multiverse theory moot because it is irrelevant and untestable? Many physcists believe in a 11 dimensional eternal hyperspace known as a bulk yet it is by your standards "moot" because we cant test it. Come on bro its a theory and people are inclined to believe their theory of everything. Doenst make much difference. Its absurd
Dd S smh speaculation has the similar definition of “up in the air”. It seems that your definition of fiction is subjective and while I am allowed to speculate on what created the universe, you say it is fiction because it is untestable in our universe(root word for one reality in Greek). You shut down any possibility for a theory of everything and because what I say conflicts with your view of how the universe is created, you call it fiction. I think you think I’m talking about a creator god, and by definition it may be god, I mean if it walks like a duck and if it quacks like a duck. To be honest, I don’t care what it is, it’s a theory. I mean Jesus, who made you the Hitler to differentiate what is fact and what is fiction.

Thanks for this episode, only for the mention, Roger Penrose and David Deutsch could have added more here.
Instead of consciousness I would say life cannot be explained by physics and consciousness is an essential attribute of life. It evolves with life.
Wonderful presentation. Complex matters dealt in simple understandable language. Loved it.
I tend to agree with the proposed idea of consciousness which will make the universe a living entity and not a slave to physical laws. This has to be approached with an open mind with a realisation that complete truth is yet to be revealed. Maybe a little less of rigidity and a little more of humility might help. I also tend to agree that the universal laws which govern the working of our universe would be simp,e rather than complex. Great presentation.
Physics is a man made tool for analyzing the physical world. Using that tool we are constantly learning new things associated with the physical world. Our tool is always being improved, and our concepts often changed based on new understanding. For all practical purposes, the universe (with or without anything that may exist beyond), is infinite to us. In other words, our field of discovery is endless and it seems highly likely physics will stick with us till the last physical mystery is unraveled.
Spirituality, Universal Consciousness.

Laurence Krauss is a diamond in our society. Absolutely a wonderful programme in a wonderful collection. A tribute to humanity.
Reality has more to it than just physical elements, it has to have spiritual non-physical elements as well, which ofcourse cannot be comprehended by physicists in its entirety.
