    Great to see another video with Prof Gray
    I'm glad the importance of uncertainty in the estimates was mentioned!

      I think even more important than the uncertainty is the small sample size. On a sample of *1,* an oddity isn't that surprising.

    We call our orange cat 'Gordo' because he is a chonk. Now, here we find out he isn't only a chonk, but a galaxy cluster influencing our models of the early Universe. Very good cat! 🐈

      Depending on how big his error bar is, he might be not just a chonk but an absolute unit!

    Cool video as usual. One very minor point, “flaca” means thin or skinny, not exactly flat, that would be “plano”. ☺️

    I understand that a Galaxy Cluster are Galaxies gravitational bound together. But Gravitation is everywhere, so, how to discern Galaxies gravitational bound or not?
    Great Video, thanxalot.

    • @garethdean6382
      @garethdean6382 Год назад +6

      The check is whether a galaxy is moving fast enough to not orbit the center of mass. If it's moving too fast it will 'escape' the cluster and so is not bound to it. This is actually a relatively simple measurement to make.

    By "cooling" is that simply the expansion of space? as in atoms move away from each other and hence lower the energy per volume?

    What's funny is that this video would've been the same had the point been across the line with most of its error bar below it. It's within error so there'd be no definitive answer.

    • @judychurley6623
      @judychurley6623 Год назад

      I would think that an error bar is symmetrical around the data point.

      @@judychurley6623It is, usually (depending on the underlying distribution). Which is why I said/meant that had the actual point been on the other side of the line, the lower end of the error bar would not have been.

    Cling to the model, defend legacy over evidence. It's what Einstein would have wanted. (warning! this textbox contains sarcasm)

    • @judychurley6623
      @judychurley6623 Год назад +3

      This study is evidence, with the error bar helping define the range of certainty/uncertainty. That they are looking and measuring to test the model is what is interesting. If the data point fell out of the range, they would have excepted that, and moved on to a new theory.
