Royal Society of Canada 2023: Mark Van Raamsdonk
Mark Van Raamsdonk, Physics and Astronomy
Dr. Van Raamsdonk’s research is designed to build a better theoretical understanding of elementary particle physics, classical and quantum gravity, and cosmology. He is currently working to understand the implications for gravitational physics of fundamental results in quantum information theory, and also to understand better which properties of quantum states are required to describe gravitational space-times. Dr. Van Raamsdonk is a Simons investigator and a member of the Simons Foundation It from Qubit collaboration. (from: science.ubc.ca/news/five-ubc-science-researchers-join-royal-society-canada)

    FWD cars understeer because they have more weight over the front, but lift-off oversteer occurs because the car's weight transfers forward.

    Understeer occurs when the front is heavier If that's the case, lift-off oversteer occurs when the rear is lighter can you explain this teacher?

    Thank you for the thoughtful presentation. Need more info on what exactly the detectors are doing to make this rapid switch while the photons are in flight. Also, if this indeed is true, isn't it more likely that we are seeing evidence of a simulation rather than spookiness.

    Mick's analysis is clear, compelling, consistent with the laws of physics, and does not require belief in anything improbable (visiting aliens). Yes, the pilot "experts" can be mistaken, and they obviously are. Come on, alien believers, you're ignoring simple and clear explanations just because you really want to believe!

    Mick will never debunk Chem Trails lmfao. It's been a thing for years. The pilot of a plane that does this, gave an interview in the 90s. It was here on YT. He says how it works, what chemicals they use etc...the name of the place ffs is Weather Modification Center or something like that. It's done two days before a front moves in. You may call the cloud seeding. It's not the same thing. Oh ya, we have a Q and A with our local weather man. He was asked about chemtrails. He said when he was first starting out, he was lucky enough to get to ride along during a trip over W. Texas. They needed rain. Well they got a flood, they over did it as usual. It was not the weather man, but he did say he was surprised that it's a CONTROLLED EXPLOSION that happens as soon as the stuff leaves the plane. They use silver somthing and a whole bunch of diff. chemicals. Depends on what it's going to be used for. Stop the precip, or cause precip. The ground is often covered in white filaments after they do this.

    Thank you. I always thought that bell's theorem finally disproved the combination of locality and determinism. What has been bugging me is the "superdeterminism" loophole. Superdeterminism is the idea that when bell had done prepared his experiment ,which happened slower than light, He somehow caused the detectors to give out the results he got. I am happy to see this loophole closed.
