  • A black hole is matter and/or light crammed into such a tiny volume that nothing can escape. But, shortly after the big bang, the observable universe was that small. How did it escape?! Brilliant for 20% off: brilliant.org/ScienceAsylum

    *Very Minor Correction:* At 1:45, I calculate the Schwarzschild radius of the observable universe to be 528 GLy. It should actually be 478 Gly. In the end, it doesn't matter because it's still ridiculously big and it's still meaningless... but I felt the need to correct it anyway. To anyone wondering how I got the number, the radius equation actually reduces to this after some manipulation: (Particle Horizon)^3 / (Hubble Horizon)^2

    • @narfwhals7843
      @narfwhals7843 Před 3 lety +8

      But that isn't what you said you did. Plugging in the matter content of the observable universe and hoping it means something gives a Schwarzschild radius of around 14GLy and including dark matter gives something ~5 times larger. Both of these are well inside the particle horizon. I get throwing a big number at us for dramatic effect but this seems like a misrepresentation of your process.

      @@narfwhals7843 The problem is that we don't actually know the mass the observable universe... at least not directly. We know its density and we know its volume. If you use 4/3πR^3 for volume, what do you plug in for "R"? The only way you can get a Schwarzschild radius of 14 GLy is if you use the Hubble radius for "R," which doesn't make sense. I used the particle horizon radius for "R," which is why my final equation has (Particle Horizon)^3 in the numerator.

    In 2020 I'm 71, Retired Electrical Engineer In USA. in 2005 or so I was grappling with these concepts but didn't have effective math to handle it. I went to 2 college Math professors I knew personally, (also retired) with some of the math I thought significant. I must say, it is so stupendous to see it laid out here, even with summary graphs. Advancing through life, it is, and will be for you interested readers, repeating, it is so incredibly amazing to watch the horizons of the unknowns filtering down and solidifying into what is called known scientific reality, and to watch it solidifying!!! I saw Sputnick, Telstar, first trans-Atlantic television in the 50;s and 60's. You folks alive today are so lucky (if society doesn't collapse) to watch the future unfold.
    Back in '62, there were like 92 to 111 known elements, more speculated, some not yet isolated, just so amazing. Good luck on your voyage, and keep your eyes open. In your careers, you are likely to witness things that you will be unable to describe to anyone except specialists in your own fields. Regards. I digress.

      And I bet it was same with ie airplanes. It feels like first generation of peoples around can make real full use of those technologies, but next generations (with exceptions of individuals!) are just kinda wasting it all in some degree.

      I really felt cheated! I was working in a grocery store as an evening part-timer, working my way through Engineering College, and only saw various miscellaneous video clips after the fact. I believe Walter Kronkite was witnessing and narrating the live event. Had I realized the specific time of the event, I might have taken off from work, (But I needed the money too). Engineering school. There were so many "First events" in science and space travels, they were hard to keep track of, along with 30 hours of classes, 2 hours of homework for each hour of classes, 30 hours of part-time work, 20 to 25 hours of travel to keep it together. That's about 140 hours of 168 (as 24 * 7) hours a week. Not much time for sleep. For me, those were tough times, but I was young, straining to achieve my goals. (Had no idea I was doing the impossible) Wow. How'd that happen? How'd I get through it? For many life is hard work! for others, they have no idea. Apparently, I was having my own daily crisis, and for me, it was one among many great achievements.

    It occurs to me that as we look simultaneously out into space and backwards through time, if we could see just a little further back to the big bang at the very beginning, that huge sphere that is the beginning is also a singular point, so you could see it as the Universe being inside out - at least when compared to the spacetime that came before it. A similar phenomena happens on the inside of the black holes that the Universe is on the outside of, spacetime is twisted so that outwards becomes the past and tomorrow becomes down. What I'm saying here is that we're only *inside* a black hole from the perspective of some whole other Universe that once existed outside it which has always been and always will be inaccessible to us, and from our perspective, the big bang was an inside-out black hole, and the Universe we are in is *after* it, not *inside* it.

      When our white hole universe started a nano second later it was swallowed by a black hole, then we both expanded exponentially together forever. In our far future we will reach the singularity in the black hole event horizon we are currently in. Then we will emerge from a white hole that will be swallowed by a black hole in infinatudes. We are inside a black hole and always will be.

      That means our future it's the same as infinitely falling & can never turn around, sounds a just like time to me!
      The thing about that theory though is, it seems like gravity from the future is what is pulling us forward in time. If that's true that would mean everything is experiencing the phantom effects of their own future gravitational attraction! Could gravity bleeding backwards from the future explain dark matter! It's dark and doesn't interact with matter because it ain't there yet!
      I would love to see the math on that! I'd never understand it, but it would be definitely a nonlinear chaotic feedback loop.

    The ending part where Nick has mentioned that "each shining of the galaxies in the deep space image are actually 'ghosts' from the distant past" really terrified me! I cannot express this last part in exact words... But whenever I enter in contemplative state and I realise if hypothetically scientist receive a distant alien radio signal today from any of those civilization... They all are already gone as well!! :(
    That signal was indeed a "ghost" signal from those "ghost" galaxy that sadly has gone forever. Because life is finite (technically), this surely means that distant alien civilazation (esp that generation who sent the signal) have been dead by now :'( as both light and signal have launched waaaay before as it is reaching to us now. Additionally, we also share the same fate to them (and others)! :)
    Footnote: I also imagined that I somehow could see that alien planet via my super hypothetical telescope (thought scenario) as soon as i receive the signals, that means by now those roaming beings in that planet are all dead by now since i am watching that planet's (thus, aliens') past; that planet may have been destroyed by now either by its home star's end life or kicked out by some catastrophic case as a rogue planet...
    So, we humans also share the same fate as if right now if some other aliens (again imagine :p) watching us millions and millions of light years away, they would have to wait looooong enough to see the present day earth!!!

      @Nobddy Před 3 lety +2

      Adityachk2002 both lol. Mostly that college teaches you better though. Outside of the introductory classes college classes are generally dialogical, meaning a lot of ideas come from not only your professors, but the people around you. The value of sharing ideas in real time and taking the time to struggle with those ideas and formulate your opinions/solutions based on those ideas into rational and effective discourse, no matter the subject, is immeasurable. I took college courses in class and online. I always got more out of in-person classes. And honestly, a lot of the difference is people just asking questions in a classroom. It just isn’t the same online. Not even in a zoom call. I don’t know what country you’re in, but when the pandemic is over I recommend in-person classes. You’ll use CZcams sometimes.

      Most people will remain trapped on Earth's skin (nice metaphor, btw!), but at least in principle it's _possible_ to escape it, and several folks actually have. Indeed, technically speaking, it's possible (even practical) for our species to 'escape' Earth, to colonize the Solar System and eventually other stars, the entire Milky Way, and even make its way to other galaxies. And by that time, who knows what additional physics/science we'll have discovered to extend our existence even further/longer?
      Of course, that's all assuming we don't blow ourselves up to extinction first. All the more reason to keep pushing for science, reason, and basic education in society. But I digress.
      In the meantime, "Cheers!" 😀🍻

    • @DFPercush
      @DFPercush Před 3 lety +1

      Pretty much. A black hole requires a density _gradient_ , a difference in mass concentration between two areas. A uniform space with matter everywhere doesn't really have one central concentration of mass compared to everywhere else. It's like in those analogies you see in animations of bowling balls on a rubber sheet, or let's say a trampoline... instead of a ball pressing down on one spot, you just drop the whole trampoline on the floor. Yeah it's lower, but it's still flat.

      @@adammay1130 People come to the conclusion of the big bang because its a god proxy. if we were inside of a black hole it wouldn't' be observable to us, but we will be able to see the event horizons (which we can) whats actually disturbing and interesting is that black holes technically can create the closest thing we'd know to a singularity possible but not truly a singularity (this has been almost proved in current loop quantum cosmetology at least in theory) that at one point. a "Big Bounce" is possible its just traditionalist refuse to believe anything otherwise. ultimately every universe ends in collapse into a super massive black hole and contracts to the point closest of a singularity only to expand back out, because only a black hole can contain so much energy. another issue with the big bang is no singularity is known to exist and singularities themselves go against the second law of thermal dynamics. currently in modern theory the idea of a nonsingular big bounce is actually quiet popular as its been in the shadows since the 1980s, but seems more realistic as we delve deeper into unlocking our understandings of the quantum. most likely we may not be in a back hole as of right now, but clearly we seem to be in some kind of infinite loop as no energy or no information can ever be lost.

      Dissociation. Its a lot easier to calculate shell trajectories if you're able to put aside any thoughts about what those shells will do to other people and just focus on the math. From there, it just becomes a situation where math is math.
      Its similar to (but not really the same) as desensitization training we started putting soldiers through after the abysmal firing rate during WW1 (ie: soldiers being unwilling to shoot enemies.) If you can avoid thinking of your enemy as "people" and just think of them as "targets," its much easier to pull that trigger. At least until smacks you later in the form of PTSD but by then its too late.
