    What's amazing about these lectures is that you can easily tell how old they are.
    Science is moving so quickly, contrary to popular belief.
    Here, he's speculating about gravity waves that *might* get detected at A-LIGO. Today, we know that that happened.
    A 10 year old lecture about extrasolar planets will mention a few hundred hot jupiters, but today we know of thousands of planets, including small, rocky ones.

    At 1:24 finally someone explains how material "escapes" a Black hole.
    It never is actually inside a Black hole, but in an outside super heated membrane, fascinating.
    Im also glad he addressed the "While Hole" theory as well. When I first learned of BHs 40 years ago, I was waiting and waiting to hear someone announce the discovery of a white hole. Then as time went on hope faded. Now knowing much more about astronomy than I did back then, Im sure they would have found one by now. I think Michio Kaku does a disservice continuing to speculate on such ideas, without using a disclaimer as to the unlikelihood of it. Or as Dr. Flippenko said relaying the idea if they were possible we would probably of found them by now. I've always liked listening to Kaku, but I think he's become a victim of Hollywood's desire to dress things up for a more exciting narrative.

      Its an interesting phenomenon that when we learn more we become even more lost to the universe because as our mind expands in terms of neuronal connections we become smarter therefore we are able to recognize that we really know not that much. A majority of society really doesn't know that much because they usually focus on their field of study rather than going outside of it, however, people that are deemed Renaissance Men/Renaissance Women try to find out a little bit about many subjects.By being perplexed is a common thing. I think Pill Box by you saying that the other person isn't smart enough is making an assumption because the person hasn't studied it before or the person could have just begun their journey by watching this video. Another issue is that if you read and understand a majority of Astrophysicists and also Cosmologists you need to realize that they have various viewpoints on black holes.

    ok, so from our perspective nothing crosses the event horizon, but infalling matter does. Now throw a ball towards a black hole and watch until the hole explodes due to Hawking radiation. from the ball's perspective this also happens, but after it crossed the horizon. thus at explosion moment it was inside and outside as well ?

  • @jari2018

    so black holes are compressed space-time and the space around the hole dont expand but rather are sucked in - or so Ive heard but dont make sense -so is it compressed in 1 dimension but the small size suggest all dimensions like 11.

    With eternity being a very long time and infinity very far away, you apply the laws of probability that says almost every event no matter how absurd has some chance of occurring if given enough time, is there any theory that predicts how a near universal mass singularity would react when in contact of a singularity of similar size but consisting of Anti-matter?

That it's just a hole or distortion in space- time. If they were to collide the only collision between matter and anti matter would be in the matter contained in the outer membranes of the Black Holes.

    * deep sigh * They don't get it. Even if a traveler into a singularity survived the spaghettification caused by the surrounding gravity field, said traveler would suffer the combination of being sand-blasted by the surround debris (traveling at near light speed) as well as being incinerated by the heat. The Event Horizon acts like (metaphorically speaking) a, "...flaming sword which turned every direction to guard the way to..." the singularity-proper. The traveler would be sub-atomic particles before the hit the singularity, there to rest until Hawking radiation disipated them.

    Could a spinning black hole have a magnetic field? Could the field extend past the event horizon? When one looks at the future progression of galaxies, eventually all of the mass in orbit will be accreted onto the blackhole. When the local group of galaxies merge and all of their mass is deposited onto the merged blackholes. Would the gravity of the 1trillion solar mass blackhole and the others from other local groups warp spacetime enough to cancel the effects of dark energy, and after many tri/or/billions of years be able to merge with all of the other black holes. When the mass limit of the hypermassive blackhole is reached it creates another big bang. All of this is theoretical, im sure it has been thought of before in the big crunch scenarios, but it seems as if the current trend/consensus favors the freeze. I'm guessing this is because simulations and our current observations of the acceleration and further extrapolation of this trend. IS there a distance limit to gravities effect? probably not right, just that it decreases intensity at the square of its distance. So if the universe is accelerating and the only matter left is massive blackholes wont it be a matter of time before the force of gravity overcome the acceleration and they all merge? leading to the conditions/singularity that created the big bang? What are your thoughts?

    • @Ziplock9000
      @Ziplock9000 9 лет назад

      +searchgoogleRDwolff Yes and they do. Spinning black holes are like disks with the center spewing out all sorts of particles an EM radiation (magnetism). Would it cancel dark energy.. only locally and only for a certain amount of time as dark energy is causing an acceleration that would overcome that in time

    "from our frame of reference stuff that falling in to black hole never falls in to BH " this must be wrong because then we could see black hole, or at least we could see that material that is falling in to black hole but newer actually falls in. So if this is correct we should see black hole shining as 6 million suns.So this frame of reference stuff is clearly wrong or he didnt explain it properly. From our frame of reference material should just disappear.

      motion redshift is different then expansion redshift that is fact ... i didnt mean gravity expansion, gravity and expansion sry about that. i mean speed of light is constant but when object is moving that emits light its changes kinetic energy of light and because light cant go faster it changes frequency. that is motion redshit/blueshift but expansion redshift is different. and tell me this: can 2 observers be in same reference frame separeted by lets say 5 bilion lightyears away (they have same speed direction and all that shit) ? if they can then in same reference frame they will observe different wavelength of photon due to expansion redshift if one is closer to the light source.

  • @nealwood3945
    @nealwood3945 10 лет назад

    If you consider the nature of black holes and normal matter, you might wonder what occurs to that matter when it enters a black hole. It has been seen that nuclear particles that undergo high speed collisions in an accelerator are converted to subatomic particles such as quarks and bosons. I doubt if any mass that enters a black hole continues as "normal" matter. Whether sub-atomic particles can exist under those conditions is unknown. Do they break down into smaller particles? Do they recombine into particles that are stable under such extreme conditions? Perhaps they exist in a state of equilibrium as particles we have yet to discover. Maybe they exist as one "superparticle" that increases in energy as matter is drawn into it. If it exists as a superparticle, is it possible that it will reach a critical mass eventually and explode? Perhaps that is where Big Bangs come from. IDK. The amount of matter it would require to reach that stage would involve all the galaxies in our cosmos. I state this because, if matter can neither be created or destroyed, the Big Bang would have produced as much matter as it had absorbed. As it has been shown that the cosmos is expanding and is unlikely to collapse, then how would a Big Bang have ever occurred in the first place? I have a theory about that.
    There are 100s of billions of stars in our galaxy and 100s of billions of galaxies in our cosmos. Our cosmos has been shown to be about 14.5 billion years old. We exist in a relatively "young" cosmos. In a trillion years or so most of the matter in our cosmos will have been absorbed into black holes which will continue to spread out into the universe. The theory is that we are not the first cosmos to exist in the universe. Other big bangs have occurred over a time period that may be infinite and left behind the same kind of remnants of matter that our cosmos will evolve into. Eventually, enough of the matter from these expired cosmos will congregate into a black hole that is large enough to reach critical mass and form another big bang. This theory may also explain the "missing mass" or "dark matter" that scientists require to explain the expansion of our cosmos. If the theory is true then the universe is at least several orders of magnitude larger then what is currently believed. This would take us back to the "solid state" theory of creation. However, instead of expansion and contraction, the universe would create a random cosmos (big bang) every once in a while. This may be possible to prove if we can locate light sources that can be shown to exist outside our cosmos. Keep in mind that any of these sources of light would probably be 100s of trillions of light years distant, if not quadrillions of light years. This would mean we would be looking through the remnants of dead cosmos' that have been around for a very long time.

      I love Dr. Fillipenko and respect his intelligence and the ease with which he explains, in easily understood layman's terms, the workings of the universe.
      But,...
      someone should help him out with his comedic timing and delivery.
      Science isn't _funy_.
      *Religion*, is _funy_!! ; )

      That's fine if you can tell jokes. Filippenko cannot. It doesn't ruin the lecture because he's a good speaker and keeps the audience despite his jokes. Hence why he's still popular. It's not that bad in this one anyway. I tried to watch another of his lectures a few months ago and I had to switch off after 10 minutes. The jokes were painful. Sean Carroll is an example of a someone who's a great speaker and good at telling jokes.

    Even in his explanation of Kaku's wormhole travel not being 'just around the corner' he comes across ridiculously condescending, arrogant and pompous. Do you actually think we believe you idiots have the capability for 'wormhole travel' to be 'just around the corner' - gee mister scientist, thanks for clearing that up. When most of the nonsense you come out with is almost 100% speculation, I think you'd have to be pretty gullible to believe anything you hypothesise is 'just around the corner'.... or will ever be possible, most of it won't be. Most of what scientists hypothesise about now may or may not happen in the distant future, never will be possible. Because scientific understanding changes, and when they make these observations or predictions they are based on scientific ideas that WILL change radically as time goes on. They are rarely right about ANYTHING even just a few decades in the future. Please do not put these guys on pedestals. They are no where NEAR as 'enlightened' as they believe they are.

    Common sense, gravity is not a force that lives across all corners of the matrix, only is huge in relation to the MASS/CONCENTRATION to the space OBJECT!
    Thus gravity is the MASS ABYSS of a center in space, ALWAYS in presence of MASS/CONCENTRATION/COMPRESSION

The SR effects are negligible....but the effects of GR are extremely significant & is why the system functions to the accuracy it does....that is, the satellites speeds are not relativistic(would only effect the 12th decimal or so of the final position calculation). But their distance from the earth produces consequential GR time dilation(a differential of literally miles/day in the final position calculations). Also there IS quite significant evidence that super massive black holes exist in the center of virtually all galaxies.....y do u expend so much time/energy spreading your nonsense ? I bet the earth is flat & we never landed on the moon either ?....jeez some ppl....there's 1 in every crowd !

    Black holes do not exist , black is not apart of the electro magnetic spectrum and holes under current known laws of the natural world can never have mass thus cannot be any kind of gravitational attractive body . But this is the start of seti becoming Entertainment tonight of science fiction shows.
    Talk shitting on the shoulder`s of those who laid the path :
    John Michell (/ˈmɪtʃəl/; 25 December 1724 - 21 April 1793) was an English natural philosopher and clergyman who provided pioneering insights in a wide range of scientific fields, including astronomy, geology, optics, and gravitation. Considered "one of the greatest unsung scientists of all time",[1] he was the first person known to propose the existence of Dark Stars not black holes in publication, the first to suggest that earthquakes travel in waves, the first to explain how to manufacture artificial magnets, and the first to apply statistics to the study of the cosmos, recognizing that double stars were a product of mutual gravitation. He also invented an apparatus to measure the mass of the Earth. He has been called both the father of seismology and the father of magnetometry.

He proposed a star with so much mass and gravity light couldn’t escape. We’ve even got observational evidence and pictures of black holes. Their mass is confirmed by stars motions at the center of our galaxy.
