If only all teachers and lecturers thought and spoke about the subjects with the clarity of Professor Morison, many of the problems with our educational system would be solved. A great pleasure to listen to and learn from him.
As an amateur student of cosmology I found this lecture simply brilliant. The presentation was logical, easy to understand, and entertaining. Professor Morison has given me several ideas to both research and ponder further. If he is typical of present and past teachers at Gresham College over the past 400 years than my ancestors and I have really missed out. Thank you to the college for publishing this lecture.
Still don't understand the horizon problem. Everything was together before the expansion so why would it be different after? The force of the bang would seem to spread things out pretty uniformly so what is so surprising?
The example of the boats flying the same flags that would be strange.. however, since it is cosmic temperature that is being measured the analogy would be better stated as looking east and west seeing both boats have arranged their cargo in the same manner, while also looking at your own cargo and realizing that you have also stacked your cargo in the same manner. All the while having never been to the same port or docks you have somehow evolved to have the pattern to organize your freight. Somehow you have created the same levels of entropy on your respective shipdecks.
Sync wave emissions at the speed of light, are collectively, a node of complex resonance riding the fundamental wave of space. So even if the net integration of all information has an apparently static stae, probability one, the view we have - with the arrangements of integrated constants and variables that have evolved - is of an expanding universe in which even the materials eventually evaporate. But this is only a particular state within infinity , the time wave of all possibilities.
A recent comparison revealed that several groups were using their own interpretations of the universal constant, and that they did not agree with one another.
I still don't understand why the fact that the cosmic temperature is everywhere the same, is such a problem. Either it proves the bing bang right (things were close enough together at some point in history), or there is something qunatummechenical going on of which I do not understand much. But I understand that entanglement and the Pauli's exclusion principle do not care about distances or time.
Here's my two cents.. Would explain a lot and be good if it's true::: Liquid Crystal Space -- Bottom-Up Universe Thought Experiment.. A Fun Model Constraints: Minimal base rules and parts. Zero singularities with the infinite possible Like charges repel, unlike attract. A -ve vacuum charge sea balances close-packed +ve lattice cells Escape velocity = light speed (C) tied to the constant time it takes to move between lattice cells Extron: A free, extra cell attracts vacuum charge that pulls in 2x3 polar + 6 equatorial cells. A solid core Cells pushed in front form 6 loops back to the emptying vacuum behind with an inertial kick Lattice geometry spins moving extrons like a Rodin coil. Vacuum charge flow vibrates the lattice Holon: The hole left behind's excess vacuum charge pulls in, stretches and vibrates the lattice 12 surrounding cells accelerate to escape velocity and repel (no singularity) 'Stabilises' as 6 equatorial and 2x3 polar flows. -ve if both poles flow in, +ve if out Gravity / Dark Energy / Mass: some ideas.. Mass is (the number of) out of place lattice cells. An object's extrons + holon charge flow Mass pulls in vacuum charge that drags mass. Lattice cell repulsion is countered less elsewhere Directional lattice cell 'blips' up to 1 cell radius and the speed of light effect matter Everything's connected and holon inflows always lead to the centre, outflows bounce around Ultra-massive, feeding black hole universes' forced in phase, core extrons+holons annihilate Charge / Current: -ve attractive inward / +ve repulsive outward flows Level 0: 1 cell volume of vacuum: -6, cell: +6. Moves 6 opposites to light speed in 1 cell length Level 1: +ve holons, -ve holons. Moving extrons are neutral as their outflows join back in behind 1 wide or gravity-formed 3 cell wide hexagonal cell flow, or (linked) extron flow Close flows effect each other and regional gravity fields effect velocity and direction Photon / Light / Time: relatively quantum.. lattice compression-expansion blobs ripple holon flows Lattice shockwave with compressed, +ve mass front and stretched, -ve mass rear. Overall massless Transverse waves in holon flows. No mass added but charge has mass and 2D adds effective area Moves between lattice cells in a universal constant time. Crossing denser lattice takes more energy Gravity shrinks and acceleration compresses the lattice so both absolutely slow light locally Units shrink too and acceleration slows base processes so light speed in a vacuum measures C locally Velocity stretches base processes in time (orbits, charge loops..) as they travel further to complete Black Hole Universes / Recursive Conformity : Big Bang = 2 black holes merging or 1 exploding Feeding black holes over critical mass force core extrons/holons fully in phase. They annihilate A universe is finite but it can grow. Lattice is shared with black hole sub-universes recursively Total energy and matter potential is conserved and the rules are conformal, the same at all scales Universal distance is the average cell size of it and all its sub-universes combined. Unmeasurable Multiversal, truly absolute time is the constant time it takes light to travel between lattice cells Level n +/- particle lattice fields or a cubic lattice of joined holons + free particles are possible ------------------- Level 1 Particles: Extron, Holons 3D polar flows are more concentrated than flat equatorial flows so effect particles more Make lattice and holon flow waves that if split by a slit interfere, often altering the particle path Strong gravity may force (some) holon outflows to repel back to its own inflows in various patterns Level 2 Particles: Extrons merge with and ride holon charge flows or get stuck to holon poles or (orbit) the equator Holon outflows bond and/or entangle with other holon inflows in circuits. Everthing is connected Strong gravity may help fuse particles by forcing their field warp vibes to partly overlap in phase The Standard Model: the possibilities are numerous There's a chance much of the particle collider scatterings are 'ghost particles' - directional, high velocity, short-lived holes and chunks of space in space too large to stabilise, forcing the lattice to violently 'heal' back to empty regular space or extrons and holons. The model allows 1 missing/extra particle per L1 particle, anything more rapidly disintegrates to dust. This mechanism aids extron-holon annihilation in critically dense black hole (universe) cores.
Speed is such a funny thing i think, what is speed related to? i mean we move at a speed and thigns at a speed move at a differend speed related to our speed, what is speed?
Not speed, rather acceleration. The galaxies are pushed apart by the space between them expanding. All of them are moving away from each other. It's like whatever speed you're driving at, the road under you is stretching out and getting longer.
Didn't understand his causality on opposite sides of the observable universe (the ship and flag), no explanation for that. The CMB looks like the random surface of the pacific ocean, how can you say a wave in Japan has causality with one in California. There could be a typhoons in Mexico and Philippines which both churned up the waves and gave the current random pattern. Multiverse etc is quasi religion, something you state with no experimental way to prove that you ask someone to just accept. Making a case for some design outside our reality, given the finely tuned quantum constants he put forward, along with macroscopic things like atom structure, periodic table, amino acids is about as believable and starting outside our reality eliminates something from nothing issues, which is about as religious.
Its only curved or less curved in relation to size of person observing. Alan Guth's theory of inflation that space becomes flatter and less curved as it expands is ridiculous, because it is the size of the observer that creates the illusion of flatness or curvature in a spherical object, and without the observer having a material location and comparative size in relation to the object, then no such conclusion can be made. 'flatness' is an illusion of perception, not a real statistic. See this image for visual demo; weaver.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/CD_SAMPLE_3.jpg To a fly, a marble isnt flat, but to a microbe, it is. so who on earth can we say the edge of the universe as a spherical expansion, can seem flat to an observer the bigger it gets? it depends on the size of the observer, and how far away he is from the spherical object. The curvature of space remains the same curvature. A ball is a ball, and has always the same curvature, which is constant as size increases in equal relation to surface curvature. These guys cannot think in 3d images.. they just do numbers. The earth looks more curved when you fly higher, the closer to ground you are, the flatter it seems. It is lack of 4d vision that causes these mathematicians to make conclusions based on assumptions which don't include all the relevant factors, such as the size of the observer. which they imagine to be disembodied and virtual. But there is no such thing as a disembodied virtual observer. Only real phsyical living conscious observers.Curvature is a perceptory illusion, as are straight lines. There is no such thing as either. If you stood on the outer rim of the universe and started growing taller and taller like alice in wonderland, the perimeter would become more and more curved as you grow. so How can it get flatter with expansion, if the beings in it expand with it? Are we expanding too with the space and dark matter that composes us? Has that been taken into account, that we, and all the stars and planets, AND the space, is expanding? or just the space? ad if so, then why dont material visible objects expand along with the dark energy? The calculations do not include the conscious observer in the formula, and that renders an inaccurate mathematical conclusion. Quantum physics has to include the real conscious observer in the formula to createe accurate results, and in this point in time, we don not understand the effects and relationships between conscious observation, and how it influences the behaviour of 'reality' (the material universe)
Actually you are completely wrong. Your understanding of "the edge of the universe as a spherical expansion" is not the concept they are talking about when they say space becomes flatter as it expands. It would take a while to explain but I think it would be useless to try... given your insistence that you "know" more than they do.
They may have appeared clever engineering types but even as IBM communication experts they could only speak pigeon pigeon and unfortunately could not express their frustration without resorting to violence. Seriously I think that the first time they just shooed them away but what with pigeons being pigeons......
Stop at this point , when he introduces Edwin Hubble and his RedShift , and let me tell you something , Red Shift they are talking about is quantized , if it is speed it can not be quanitzed speeds are not quanitzed , red shift is , thats its i just showed that Hubble is wrong , i can do more research and i find out what it actually is but i need some support , if there are interested individuals or organisations you can contact me pavle dedskin pavlovic on facebook

Thanks for the lovely note! - Delighted to hear that you enjoyed and learnt from Professor Morison's lecture(s) as much as we did.
GreshamCollege Thank you for these talks, they are amazing but please buy a better camera !
i am delighted to have found your channel, and share it a lot. Fantastic Lectures!
this is one the best talks I've seen on the evolution of the cosmos from nothing........done very well and easy to absorb the information.......
I am in awe about this presentation!
It might be the best one I ever saw!
I like these lectures but as a Space aficionado, I wish they were uploaded (somewhere) in 1080p or better resolution!
Still don't understand the horizon problem. Everything was together before the expansion so why would it be different after? The force of the bang would seem to spread things out pretty uniformly so what is so surprising?
The universe isn't just expanding, it's expanding and contracting simultaneously.
!DA
These lectures rock!

this video is like a book you can't put down. charmingly told story of a lot of good stuff. my IQ just went up. thanks!

Here's my two cents.. Would explain a lot and be good if it's true:::
Liquid Crystal Space -- Bottom-Up Universe Thought Experiment.. A Fun Model
Constraints: Minimal base rules and parts. Zero singularities with the infinite possible
Like charges repel, unlike attract. A -ve vacuum charge sea balances close-packed +ve lattice cells
Escape velocity = light speed (C) tied to the constant time it takes to move between lattice cells
Extron:

Mass is (the number of) out of place lattice cells. An object's extrons + holon charge flow
Mass pulls in vacuum charge that drags mass. Lattice cell repulsion is countered less elsewhere
Directional lattice cell 'blips' up to 1 cell radius and the speed of light effect matter

-------------------
Level 1 Particles: Extron, Holons
3D polar flows are more concentrated than flat equatorial flows so effect particles more
Make lattice and holon flow waves that if split by a slit interfere, often altering the particle path
Strong gravity may force (some) holon outflows to repel back to its own inflows in various patterns

BUT WHY WHY DID THEY SHOOT THE PIGEONS
75% hydrogen 25% Helium, by count, not by weight?
Why isn't the solar system expanding?

That awnsers it yea :)
No it does not. Your next question should be "What is acceleration related to?"

Morrison is way better than Crawford. He's far more eloquent and entertaining and far more creative in the way he presents subjects.
