I just can't stop imagining Dr. Siegel standing next to a railroad in a black cape and top hat, cackling with glee as he ties someone to a railroad track, or possibly builds a bomb out of sticks of TNT and a ticking alarm clock.
LOL Yah he was born 140 years too late.
It's just the stash, he needs is a monocle and the right hat to play the part😅
YEAH..a taxtbook villian... funny
OMG I love Dr Siegel, communicates so well, please have him on again some time, thanks good sirs!
Did you see the time he took over my QA? czcams.com/video/2Wmo5ONsd-s/video.html
I totally missed this, big thanks for the link! @@frasercain
I just revisited the show and I remember watching it, but it seems like it was only 6 months ago! I can’t believe it’s been 3+ years 🤦🏻♂️
I think he could communicate better if he dialed the gesticulation and facial expressions way down. It's really distracting.
His facial hair is repulsive
I love how Ethan sits and fully listens to the questions being asked and never interrupts! Such a great skill.
Complimenting that is like a participation award, it should be just basic manners and good practice for any intelligent dialogue. One should be able to take for granted that.
But yes it's a good thing. Need to see more of that.
Ethan is one of my favourite science communicators too. Any time there's some new 'discoveries' I'm sceptical of I check his blogs first.
Fraser: "What are we going to do tonight Dr Siegel. "
Dr Ethan Siegel. "The same thing we do every night Fraser. Try to take over THE WORLD"
You guys are great. thanx for the interview Fraser and Dr Siegel.
Very interesting interview, thanks! I have never seen Dr. Siegel in a video, he's a fantastic communicator :)
I'll definitely keep an eye out for other appearances by him.
So grateful people like this exist. Gives me hope for the future.
Me too... but I have no hope for Dr. Siegel's sense of style 😩
@@con9467 I love his style! If Vegas had resident scientist lectures, that style would be perfect!
the second I swa that dude's stach appear in my suggestions, I'm imidiaTEly knew I'd love him. Spoken like a TRUE scientist. THANK YOU you're one of the few thank you really
Absolutely great talk with Dr Siegel. There are a number things discussed that caught my interest. I particularly liked his statement about funding and where that gets tied up with politics. People fail to see how science affects their lives 5 or 10 years in the future. I get so frustrated when folks stomp across the media slamming their flag "Why are we spending money here when there is this or that issue here on the planet."
What got my attention is when he said "as a non pants wearer" 20:55
In a podcast for the layman or -woman, I think the problem is more how *we* should discern between the chaff and the wheat. My personal solution is twofold:
1. Don't fall for clickbait. I never click on a title like "Scientists Are Shocked..."
2. Select some authors you feel you can trust an stay with them. Eg, You, Hossenfelder, Petrov, Ash, "Dr. Becky" etc.
Next, there is a novel with the title "In Praise of Slowness". Try to adopt it, and take things slowly. Less prone to errors.
On the other hand, I really like your features about upcoming or nascent developments, eg. the proposal to put swarms of small telescopes in orbit - fascinating.
Clear Skies and keep up the good work!
you lost me at Petrov
I wonder where things are going to go with the rise of giant amounts of clickbait AI that gets generated?
@@timjohnson3913 Anton Petrov - good channel (just an unpleasant voice)
@@frasercain Stick to bloggers you know or are personally recommended to you. I can not say better; algorithmic tests seem to be too error prone.
@@timjohnson3913 I think he is also producer of this channel :P
Awesome interview! Thanks Fraser and Ethan!
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I love Dr Ethan! He's such a great writer and communicator. I have never seen him in video form though 😅
Yeah, he's quite an animated guy.
@@frasercain He also looks completely ridiculous. I double dog dare you to rock the same look!
I follow you 4 quite a long time n love it. But, today you blow my mind with your guest. GENIUS . WONDERFUL. THANKS SO MUCH
I've been listening to Ethan's amazing podcast and reading the occasional Forbes piece for some years. I can agree that he is one of the truest voices of reason in science and its great to finally see him in front of the camera. This was an utterly enthralling talk, thanks!!
Astonishing science communicator with a broad perspective and providing excellent explanations.
Fraser Cain and Ethan Siegel are an absolute dream team! Ethan's ability to articulate his thoughts in real-time mirrors the elegance of his writing. Thank you so much to both. Can't wait for the second part of this interview!
Looks like sonic movie villain
Wow. What a skilled communicator. So clear and easy to follow. Dr Siegel took me with him as we explored the mysteries of Science, not just space. Thank you both!
Yes, this, more, please!
Another stage is the fact that as we make new discoveries we are constantly finding new questions.
Great stuff as always. Love the channel!
I'm a simple scientist. I see Ethan Siegel, I click.
OMG I love the truth 👍 great information and interview. Thanks so much..
I don’t like the word “crisis” either, but clearly there are several major unresolved problems in astrophysics: the Hubble tension, dark matter, dark energy. With respect to dark matter and dark energy one could fairly say that astrophysicists don’t understand 95% of the stuff they study for a living. It’s a little embarrassing.
But we will continue to work the scientific method with our awesome new instruments, and over time the answers will come.
It is amazing to study the history of this field and realize that a mere 500 years ago, the prevailing theory was that the earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years is an eyeblink in geological and astronomical time. Think of where we will be in a 1000 years or 10,000 years from now if we’re still around. It would not surprise me if a dozen or more major paradigm changes occur in that time. It feels to me like we are on the verge of one of those changes now. It’s an exciting time to be alive and follow the developments in this field!
I'm not sure how that's "embarassing." They discovered the discrepancy in the first place and now they're trying to explain it. Each new instrument resolves it better and better, but science is an exhausting process, where you don't know when and where you'll get the answers.
I'm pretty hopeful for the combo of Vera Rubin, Euclid and Nancy Grace Roman. Of course, more answers just bring more questions. :-)
Woah, this interview was such a revelation. Thanks for the information!!
Thanks a lot, he's one of my favorites.
man this guy is a hoot. i could watch and listen to him for days
ive never felt so connected to a random science guy.
clear yet deep explanations, entertaining, and you two have a great dynamic.
Does Dr Siegel have a youtube channel or other videos? im hooked.
Awesome talk. Thanks!
This is my first time seeing Ethan and man, his mustache and beard are glorious. He's so animated, clear, concise, and i love it.
It's a bold choice, but he's pulling it off!
1:09:00 BRAVO DR, ETHAN SIEGEL! WILL CHECK OUT YOUR WORKS , ALSO!❤❤❤❤❤🎉 👏 👏 👏 👏 🎉
I like how Ethan talks- he is clear and enunciates himself well.
Dr. Siegel has a great way of cutting through the hubris (aka the mchutzpah) of the greater scientific community and just cutting straight into the heart of a topic, without an ego getting in the way. Thanks Fraser
Looking forward to the conversation.
Amazing content thank you
After listening to Dr. Ethan Siegel I have even more respect for him. This was a great Q & A, thanks for the interview. I am definitely looking for more podcasts and media from him.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. He's terrific.
We are so lucky to have this great content that keeps me learning and keeps me excited about the new horizons.
The songs listed at the end also qualify, that was painful. Glad this wasn’t my discovery vid for your channel 😂
Wow! Great! An outstanding Interview! The explanations are absolut super!
Thank you very much Fraiser and Ethan(!)!
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Ah snap it's Dr Robotnik, run Sonic.
Just kidding, that was a great interview. Loved watching
We love Dr. Siegel!!!
Top class interview in every respect! ✨🦋
Dr. Seigel is one odd looking fellow, but he's one of my favorite communicators out there. I love how he breaks things down to the most important bits and swats away all of the fluff that most science journalism injects into a story.
Yeah, I don't even notice it anymore. I just am so excited to talk to him about space and astronomy and I really depend on his perspective for science news and especially a lot of the cosmology stuff. He's great!.
I am watching for the second time. There’s so much in this, I really realize how much I am lacking in brainpower to really grasp the things that are being talked about.
I think I'll do just the same thing...
Thanks for Sharing Dr. FRAISER CAIN❤🎉
More of Dr Ethan please!
Wonderful interview on the scientific method and those fantastic whiskers
Ok, so why have I never heard of Dr Ethan Siegel before????????? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Such a fascinating interview
Fantastic program.
Dr. Siegel is another one of those awesome characters that the world needs more of. Long may he educate us.
He touched on a point that some take great exception too. Why do we spend so much on science when there is much suffering in the world. He also touched on the answer. For a start, we don't spend much on science, we certainly spend more on arms, sports, entertainment and so on. Any and all could be cut back to help those less fortunate. If you or I thought it would make a difference then we would do so without hesitation. We know it wouldn't though. In all likely hood, it would simply get lost without discernible effect except to line the pockets of those who benefit from the suffering. Science though is bringing about genuine improvements in peoples lives. Science is the reason we don't risk a grisly death from predation, cold, hunger etc. every moment of our lives. From 100% of people living life like that, we are now at much better percentage and continuously getting better. It's not an instant cure but it is the only one that works.
Whenever people make that comment, I always say compared to what should we spend less money on science and more money on the military. So yeah, I totally agree with you
I think this is my favorite guest. I love his vibes.
50:00 theory vs practice - i want to give the video a second thumbs up for that discription
I love the show as always, Fraser. You and Dave Farina are my favourite science commentators. You two have very different styles from each other, and I would love to see you discuss science together. Any chance you could get him on for an interview?
Well communicated Philosophy of Science, it's major propositions, and examples of it's everyday use and how it functions!
"All the best freaks are here..." - Marillion 👍
The "Rasputin the Wizard" thumbnail was an apt choice - a very interesting chap, indeed... 😄
what are the best resources to see dialogue about scientific discoveries
So, what percentage of GDP (or any other measure of one’s choosing) should be spent on physics and astronomy research efforts in order to satisfy the requirements of theorists and experimentalists, and to ensure effective forward motion?
Funny, you had a similar interview with an author (apologies, I forget his name), and he had almost the opposite view.
The concern with ∆CDM is not about trying to criticize the hypothesis itself. It's about the culture of the Cosmology establishment.
Once we posit a hypothesis, the literal definition of the Scientific Method is to try to invalidate that hypothesis. That is science.
Instead, what has developed is the opposite approach. The thrust of the community is to force the model to match the data.
We should be using the data to create our model.
A primary example is: When the LCDM was challenged by the Horizon Problem, in which the actual observations demonstrated that the universe was much to heterogeneous and homogenous over too vast a distance, which invalidated the model, what transpired was an unknown physicist literally invented a process that was made up out of whole cloth, wherein the universe was now supposed to have gone through an exponential expansion, called Cosmic Inflation.
This was literally, a free parameter invented to wedge the model into a new shape because it didn't fit the data. Like stuffing a size twelve foot into a size six shoe.
So the model is weakened because we've added a free parameter. But worse than that, it causes us to look away from what the data is actually telling us.
There's a similar story with Dark Matter. The mass of the universe that we can measure simply doesn't account for the effects that we measure with our direct observations. And the rate of galaxy rotations doesn't match the total mass of the galaxy that we measure.
So, a material that is purely an invention of our minds, that doesn't exist anywhere in nature and doesn't conform to the normal laws of physics, that we call Dark Matter.
In more than half a century, after building tremendous facilities and spending hundreds of billions of dollars, no such material has ever been found.
Why would we expect to find something that we literally just made-up? Are we also searching for unicorns?
I'm well aware that the measurements *predict* that some hidden mass is present. We fully expected to find it.
But again, this is because we added another free parameter to our model and then tried to force the universe into that model, instead of exploring all of the other ideas, other information that the universe could be telling us.
Instead, to force the model onto the observations, an imaginary material was thought into existence, and all research and investment went into trying to make that imaginary material an actual reality.
That's an abandonment of the Scientific Method.
I cannot even begin to count the number of people who have said that Dark Matter is a FACT. Without a trace of irony.
Wait, what??
Last I checked, gravity is not a fact. I believe it's still called the Theory of Gravity.
It's a damned good theory. Hasn't failed yet, as far as I know.
But apparently, this made-up substance that has never been found has a higher confidence than gravity....?
I could go on, there's some glaring questions about Redshift. You mention the Hubble Tension. They invented Dark Energy. There are advanced galaxies that are far too old. There are these enormous structures that have some serious age issues.
Yes, cartoon man here is correct. There are a collection of different issues that poke holes in different aspects of the model.
That's not really the problem with the LCDM. The major problem is that an entire field of science is essentially working in concert to DEFEND a hypothesis.
That's how you end up with a flat Earth or Earth at the center of the universe.
Every time that there is a challenge to the model, something new is invented, some free parameter is added to fix it. That's simply NOT science.
We should be TRYING to break it. Because that's the only way we'll know that the model is wrong. That's what's exciting.
How are we ever going to learn what is ACTUALLY happening out there if we just keep adding Duct Tape to our 100 year old model?
I'm not sure who this guy is, but if your main concern is looking like a circus act and waving your hands around and talking about how clean the mirror is on JWST, then maybe it's time for some self reflection.
I'm not looking to be ENTERTAINED, I'm looking for knowledge. I'm seeking truth about the world around me.
Saying that the JWST is TOO good is just avoiding the question. You've allowed yourself to become self deluded. Assess everything you know, and then question it.
The minute you have to defend a hypothesis by talking about how great it has been for so long, and believe that you can iron out the wrinkles, you've already lost the plot. That's not science.
Science is: Give me a hypothesis. Now let's try to break it...
Good morning!
If you average out the entire cosmos, there is a total mass density of 9.9 x 10^-30 grams per cubic centimeter, which is equivalent to 5.9 protons per cubic meter.Feb 1, 2017

Great show. There is a keen mind behind that moustache.
Every time I see and hear Ethan Siegel, I can't help but think of Patrick Rothfuss.
I have seen Ethan Siegel’s articles, but he also does a great job talking on camera.
I wonder how much time he spends on maintaining his complex hair style.

Hah, I'd love to watch it.
This guy is like my dad was. If you tied his hands behind his back, he wouldn't be able to talk. I love it. 🤣
Where can I get the Dr. Siegel facial hair filter for my videos?
Next year a solar eclipse will be happening close to myself and I'm wondering what I should get to observe it. I know I need special glasses/gear to observe it without damaging my eyes but I wanted to ask a source I trust about advice/suggestions. I'm also thinking of trying to get pictures but I need to see what camera I can get my hands on.
Remember, relativity kids, October is "Spooky Action at a Distance Month!"
Assuming we exist inside the observable universe, is jwst traveling towards the center, where the beginning took place, or is it traveling towards the edge??? (how do we know we are looking at the center instead of the edge?)
It's not traveling anywhere, it's in a position about 1.5 million km from Earth.
@@frasercain Thank you very much Fraser.... Wow, am I confused... It picks up light that reaches it and it seems to me this light is coming from the region at the center of the observable universe? ( I am avoiding the use of the term "big bang")... could it also pick up light from galaxies at the edge of the observable universe? How would we know? (red shift versus blue shift)
Well looks in any direction and sees back in time. So it sees close to the edge of the observable Universe in every direction. We are all the centers of our own observable Universe. Think about what it's like to walk in thick fog. You can see a few meters around you and then everything is obscured. But if you move to a new place, you can see a different region, and your old spot is obscured again.
You're always at the center of the observable Universe.
This i will watch a couple more times
Energy equals mass implies energy bends space-time (say "produces gravity" for simplicity)... The front of an EM wave carries energy hence producing gravity. The edge of the expanding observable universe is the front of an EM wave, and it produces gravity towards the front and towards the back of the wavefront. Gravity towards the back of the wavefront (towards the center of the Observable Universe) accelerates baryonic mass toward the edge of the Universe, hence it explains dark energy. As the surface of the edge of the Universe increases the energy density decreases hence gravity decreases and eventually gravity from real mass will take over and start a crunch of real mass (a huge black hole)
Finally a voice of reason
We need much more computer technology to search through massive amounts of future data. To find vital structures and anomalies.
Science Communication is shocking, Cosmology may not have crisis...But Honest and integrity in other fields which cosmology stands. has left the building long ago, Particle Physics is a disgrace, we have been chasing ghost's for well over 50 years , first theta , then axioms and so on .... we should be honest .
Gravity waves for example , we said once we get instrumentation of a certain resolution we should find them, and we did good science, but in particle physics we have had instrumentation of a certain resolution that should have detected all these ghost particles over 25 year ago...trillions have been wasted on new instrumentation chasing the same ghosts.
And Quantum physicist's have refused for nearly 50 years to do any direct investigation in the Quantum realm , because as they say indirect measurement of a Quantum state is impossible ?, thank god for computer scientists who now actually seem to be doing their work for them .
Ethan can eulogise all he wants, but there are huge problems overlooked in his presentation .
Huge potential work for astrophysicist. Just 5 years into this amazing decade. Plus Starship, moon projects, AI, more telescopes and other technologies. Why do we need a god to explain the universe when it is already amazing and we gain new knowledge daily.
Dr Ethan Siegel theorist, stupendous inspirational guest.
* fastest 65 minutes ever.
He jovial mannerisms reminds me so much of a good friend from high school, Weird Al, Salvador Dali and Dr Demento all smashed into one human.
I wonder how much of outer edge of the observable universe have we looked at? JWST has looked at one point but has it also looked in the opposite direction and every other point in between, and is that even possible? That would have to be a huge amount of data.
I think this hubble tension should be thought of as something captivate young people and attract them to science. I also think Dr. Becky does really well on her youtube channel by communicating the scientific discussion around these kind of topics
Yes and those kinds will rise up and last. Sure we have a lot of people who think the earth is flat but hey critical thinking protects people. In the end the cream rises to the top and the flat earthers will fall flat
@@FantasticForce23 Do we though? It might just be a tiny, but vocal minority. I pity flat earthers for not having good sources of information and being actively misled by their communities to the point they internalize such easily refuted rubbish.
@@AbAb-th5qe sadly I believe flat earth is a youtube algorythm experiment. They want to see how they can fool the masses. Sadly these tech companies fire the best and keep only psychos. This was proven when Elon Musk bought twitter. The psychopathic employees were not just engineers they were basically the flat earthers of politics!
I disagree with a big particle accelerator in Fermi Lab being redundant. Reproducing results is very much important. I love our LHC - but a second system built from different parts by different people finding the same results is what would really solidify the results.
Did the cosmic microwave background start off as microwaves or has it shifted?
It’s good to have a Sasquatch moment, to realize (for a moment) that there is a nonzero chance it’s aliens,
But then practice finding two better ideas before the coffee is done brewing
I had very little sleep last night. Went to take a nap and started this episode. I was so captivated by these conversations that I didn’t even fall asleep!
I never heard of Dr Ethan Siegal. You can bet I’ll be checking out his blog. Such a great way of explaining things.
I hope people will become less polarized over time about everything. Too often do we get into heated arguments or even fights over all sorts of things, things that don't really impact our day to day living. Whether its about disagreements in science, politics, faith, or any other higher pursuits in life, we should not abandon good faith in one another and in our communities. Disagreements handled calmly and with the belief that the other person could have information you don't are often where higher, better answers may be discovered.
At 42:44 I wondered how do gravitational wave detectors sort out any "gravitational back ground noise from the "Big events"? Like with the early radio telescopes and cosmic background radiation. Is that even an issue? I mean LIGOS is looking for spikes, and maybe that's they only thing they can even detect, but do they have to clean up, and filter their signals to account for dark matter?
21:00 😂❤non pants wearer😅🎉 Thanks Doc😂 TRUTH FACTS RESPECT! 🙏 ❤
..btw, i❤your Background 25:25😂🎉 exactly when I was writing😅❤
Ethan is a nut, in a very good way. ;-) He definitely gets extra points for the awesome face fur. That's a killer handlebar.
People talk about red shift due to space expansion RATHER THAN doppler, but hey guys, doesn't it have to be the addition of BOTH, and isn't that obvious? If both are observed phenomena, then one of these can't just disappear in the equation. You get instantaneous doppler from the receding velocity, and then further red shift by spatial expansion. Clue me in Mr theoretical physicist, what am I missing here?
Circumspect and careful...YES! What a concept. Superb speaker. It's so nice to listen to someone like this rather than some mostly clueless faker like Tyson. I'm going to locate more of this guy's talks. Really superb segment Fraser! Cosmology and cosmological physics are SOOO interesting. The only problem with understanding it at a significant level is the complex mathematics that most leading edge physics theories require.
We have a phlogistin theory of electronic parts, as well. They work on smoke, and that is obvious because when you let the smoke out, they stop working. :-)
Redshift is a combination of different effects, but over vast distances redshift due to space expansion dominates (factors of 10 to over 100 times as much) since the local motion of galaxies has a rough limit of a few thousand km/s.
He looks like a fool.
24:28 I know who he's referencing and I agree 💯
lol, I thought the thumbnail was a joke. What a character!
Yes, there is in fact a crisis in cosmology and physics as a whole.
Inflation is universally considered subsequent to the big bang, contrary to 5:13 through 5:25, isn't it?
Yes and No, the big bang is the general theory that the universe was not stationary and was very small and grew. The inflation is a complement to explain how fast it grew from 10−36 seconds to between 10−33 and 10−32 seconds after the "Big Bang", but we know that it was not a single point, the math doesn't work approching the Plank time 10-44.
It's just word salad. Inflation can be considered to be the 'bang', the rapid expansion of the universe. Or it can be considered to be the extension of the original moment of the bang. It could also be what happened before and during the bang or bangs, eg. in eternal inflation.
Excited to learn that Ethan exists.. not so sure how I feel about the moostache.
Never

Mess

with the DOOOOO
I haven't heard the name Big Think in a over a decade, since they first rolled out the floating university during the heyday of the Ted talk. Will have to catch up
I think it's just a home for Ethan's blogs, he's not that connected with the other videos and articles they do.
So I'm at the beginning of the video, but off the title and thumbnail, this is perhaps the same underlying problem as freaking idiotic monthly MOON headlines,
"A smaller than the last month, but second in this arbitrary modern gregorian calendar period, moon is predicted to be visible over our small Welsh village tonight: how to get the best photos"
This guy if he ever gives up astrophysics - he could pull a good turn as a 'fortune teller' at a circus... he's got the right look, and all the right gestures.

The paradoxes were solved in the books I published in 2021, almost 3 months before the JWST was launched. I solved the Hubble Tension, the black hole information paradox, quantum gravity, dark matter, dark energy, and the impossible early galaxy paradox. On page 48 I wrote quote "The JWST, James Webb Space Telescope will discover old, fully grown galaxies as far as the telescope can see, further than 13.8 billion light-years away." I said they would consider the old, massive galaxies in the early universe the Mother of All Paradoxes. Astrophysicists call it the impossible early galaxy problem. Not a prob. I accurately predicted it. I know exactly where their theories and model of cosmology went wrong and fixed it years before they realized they were wrong.
LOL, serious, the JWST over sensitivity is tuned so well that it can see into the future, able to see galaxies older, and brighter at the dawn of time than our own galaxy? I know exactly where they went wrong and accurately predicted the old massive bright galaxies in the early universe. I explained why too. I explained all the science behind the prediction. I start with general relativity and gravity which leads to special relativity's time dilation and length contraction, along with the photoelectric effect, the theory of thermodynamics, dark matter, dark energy, quantum entanglement, Copenhagen Interpretation, and James Clerk Maxwell's field equations. Through my expert interpretations of all the theories and cosmological model of the universe, I came up with old, large galaxies would be found further than 14 billion light years away. I even predicted the outcome of the G02 gas cloud, which is still a mystery.
Lambda CDM cosmology? If it's so accurate then show the evidence cold dark matter exists. I want predictions that can be proven through observations? Right now dark matter and dark energy are used as wildcard variables when the laws of motion and general relativity are unable to describe the motion and trajectory of a star or galaxy. The motion and trajectory of matter than can be accurately described by the theory of motion and general theory of relativity only confirm them. This equates to about 4.6% of all the mass in the universe. The remaining 95.4% of the motion and trajectory is blamed on things that can't be measured or observed. Not one prediction has been made to accompany the postulates, thus the LCDM is not even a theory. It cannot be considered to be correct if they don't even know what's causing the observed motion and trajectory of matter. It can't be explained using math or observations.
So, did the LCDM model predict the old massive galaxies further than 14 billion light years away? After studying the data that makes up the theories and laws of physics I made my own predictions, based on what i learned. I accurately predicted the old, massive galaxies when NASA was predicting dim, young galaxies and stars. Their interpretations of the data was wrong, mine was right. I even explained the moment when their interpretations went wrong. It was right off the bat with the theory of thermodynamics claiming energy and matter can't be created. That is a lie. In a static universe energy and matter can't be created, it converts from one to the other and vice verse, so the total amount of energy and matter the universe contains remains the same. When astronomers discovered galaxies to be accelerating away from us in every direction faster than the speed of light then Einstein admitted, the universe is not static. That should have put up a red flag to every scientist on this planet. Energy and matter can be created.
How would that change our understanding of the universe? Well, if energy and matter was constantly being created, added new to the universe over time then what would the effects be? These would be called predictions if they can be answered. Well, for starters if this has been happening over time, then how old would the universe be today? It could be trillions upon trillions of years old and we wouldn't even know because we base our time on the age of our own galaxy, 13.7 billion years old. So to us the beginning would be the beginning of our own galaxy, not the beginning of the universe. The Milky Way galaxy may be 13.7 billion years old but there could be galaxies out there that are hundreds of trillions of years old and we would simply assume that they would be the same age as the Milky Way. So, I made the prediction the JWST, or a future more powerful telescope would discover a galaxy with a supermassive black hole in it's center weighing at least a trillion solar masses.
Then after studying light and the relativistic effects between time and distance when an observer measures something traveling at c I realized general relativity's look back time prediction was wrong. We cannot use a telescope to look back in time. So if my interpretations of the math and relativistic effects of time and distance the telescope would detect old, fully grown galaxies as far as the telescope can see, even further than 14 billion light years away. Looks like my interpretations of all the data, theories and laws was right on the money. Go figure?
I tune into your show for its scientific content. I had to stop watching this video half way, cuz all I heard was him criticizing everyone else. Okay fine, we got it!. I learned nothing from this episode other than there are bad scientists, and he is a good scientist.
