      I really love the style too, that they maintain a single narrator the entire time.

      If I have to point out the mistake in that sentence, you'll probably just respond that it's not a mistake, or that it's too trivial to take issue with, or that it's a "style" issue (it's not), but it reads: "...questions to which Eistein's theories only begin to answer." At first glance it should be obvious that the writer started out to write one sentence but switched in the middle to end up writing another; it should have said, either "...questions which Eistein's theories only begin to answer..." or "...questions to which Eistein's theories only offer the beginnings of answers..." or some such variation. TR;DR version: there are too many "to's" in that phrase; one ANSWERS a question; one presents an answer to a question; but one does not answer TO a question.
      There are other spelling and wording issues; I am done with this channel and am not going to revisit it to dredge them up for you. Consider them exercises for the reader. If you can't catch them or just don't care, no amount of explanation my part will be anything but wasted. My overall impression from this and other offerings is that, while this channel boasts shiny production values, its cultured-sounding narration is laid over careless and inaccurate writing, and it does not deserve the gushing praise that other commenters have posted here.

It's limits are where motion starts, and the speed of light, the fastest it can move before it no longer produces tactile matter that respons to time ,space and gravities. Faster or slower, it is potential or kinetic energy that permeates instantaneously.

    How many previous forms have your particles been assembled into?

      It almost feels like there is an onion where we are creating worlds (simulations) to understand our own world and in the future, the simulations we create could create new simulations to understand themselves, etc. Its certainly possible that every single conscious being ever existing in a multiverse does not know their own origin and the particles that make up you and me are all pieces of the same past and future. Quite literally, our perspective is the year 2022, but our particles have already experienced the past and future and our minds are just moments of minute time.
      Assuming our theories are correct, we genuinely are nothing more than particles trying to understand ourselves.

    Another great video! Another of my questions to all of 7.1 Million I'll never meet--When I was about 3-4 years old, I distinctly remember that when I got into the car with my family, I waved good-bye to our house as I knew that I was still while the rest of the world moved around me. My dear sister told me that everyone has had that belief as a child though mine hasn't gone away . . . (she was the only one who could translate the unusual language I spoke until I was "re-educated"). My mother desperately tried to quash my true concept of reality. She kept insisting that I was the one that was moving. I told her I needed help with my philosophy class and started reading DeCarte, Sarte and later, my grandfather's favourite in its original Russian, Ouspensky, to her. On her death bed, I finally told her that I understood what she meant (I didn't tell her that I believed her!)! Do other people feel this way, as my sister has assured me my entire life??

      “Magic” in the fantasy sense defines a system of powers and abilities which are still dictated by some sort of “system”.

    anyone who doesn't fully understand what entropy means thinks more entropy or higher is more chances and things that can occur and then think of low entropy as more certain and fewer options for something to happen example Imagine you have a deck of cards that is perfectly arranged in order from Ace to King for each suit. This ordered arrangement represents low entropy because there are very few ways to arrange the cards in this specific order.
    Now, if you shuffle the deck of cards, the arrangement becomes more disordered. There are countless ways to arrange the cards randomly, and this represents high entropy. It's much easier to achieve a disordered arrangement compared to the specific ordered arrangement.
    In this example, the ordered deck of cards has low entropy because it has a specific organization, while the shuffled deck has high entropy because it can be arranged in numerous ways.

    Mathematically a problem with Many Worlds is "where does the energy to produce the branching universes come from?" What many fail to explain is that a consequence of the equations properly applied is that there is no branching out, that's pop science: ALL possible timelines have always existed!
    That's much easier to understand if there is no time at all. The "Big Bang," the present, and the future death of the universe all happen simultaneously. Since we're trapped inside this universe and subjected to its gravity, we perceive spacetime.
    For an external observer, outside this universe, however, the entire thing is tiny and exists for a tiny instant.
    That would also explain dark energy: particles that seem to emerge from nothingness for a tiny fraction of a femtosecond. To us, they pop out of nowhere in the deepest recesses of our space. But for creatures trapped inside such tiny, fast events, they are entire universes, huge and lasting for eons.

      Don't matter really because many worlds is just pseudoscientific nonsense. Its the definition of Scientific laziness. Its used because it is easier, not because of correctness. Newtonian gravity is easier also but we don't use that when attempting precise calculations as it fails. Many worlds clearly demonstrates much that is wrong with Modern physics. It is a disease.

    Your scripting is fabulous. I want to imagine you labour for long hours musing over the right phrase, the right word. I often think everyone does thing the same way as I do. Skirting philosophy and history and the ideas and processes that bind them into one story. Like James Berk, you sir are a steely eyed missile man. Letting us all know about that day the universe changed. thank you.

    Interesting connection between Energy and Information. People don’t normally articulate the etymology of ‘Information’ which is literally ‘In’ ‘Formation.

    This is an incredible narrative. Thank you so much for this. Science is like our body - it is only possible by integrating atoms of life. Wonderful.
