    The guy who said measuring gravitational waves would be impossible to measure and then measured them is a hero of the scientific mindset. Not only was he willing to be proven wrong, he went to extreme lengths to prove himself wrong. Absolutely amazing.

      27:49, so the pulses are the same quantity for both jack and Jill? Say both count 400?

    • @JasonKendallAstronomer
      @JasonKendallAstronomer  Год назад +1

      Counting requires time. Imagine someone deep in a gravity well beaming regular pulses out. A distant watcher well outside the deep gravity well has to wait much longer between each sent pulse to receive them. So, if the deep-person never crosses an event horizon and just hangs out there and sends 200 pulses in a regular short time interval between each, then yes, the far-away receiver will get all 200. They just have to wait a long time between each pulse.

    • @blackfrost273industries4
      @blackfrost273industries4 Год назад

      @@JasonKendallAstronomer okay, yes. And naturally the pulses will become more spaced apart at an increasing rate. The sounds of things, the pulse's duration will also increase over time just as the red shift starts to take effect. I imagine. This is interesting for sure. If I had one thing to write a book or several about, it would be about accuracy in astronomy and mathematics. I would enjoy having people have the same brain reactions as I do when i have the moment where everything clicks and I instantly visualize things that I've been learning about. Like how something would appear in an experiment like this around the same visuals as interstellar. That coupled with having specialized people be able to be immersed in the story. Or just stem lovers even.

      This happened to me last night and I was dreaming about some kind of equation that helps you convert time into mass and back again. I wish I could remember the equation but it had an infinity symbol within it that could turn on its side almost like an 8. In my dreams this was a key to a kind of grand unified theory that allows you the ability to move through time in any direction at will. TBH the concept of time and mass being interchangeable is actually pretty cool and actually makes a little bit of sense.

    If the singularity\ big bang was dense. How did it only crate hydrogen and helium or was that an indirect aspect because atoms did not excist before that. Lets say if two "neutron stars" of "dense space, but none atoms" joined. They would only create H and He for the simple reason that the other rules does not matter, not a pun but, they do not count because matter can only "transform" (proton joining into heavier material) if it is matter (atoms) from the get go, aka H, He or similar?

      you are looking it in terms of force, where in reality this is not what's happening. The Black Hole bends spacetime, then the light follows the shortest spacetime path it can follow, which is a straight line inside that bent. To us, that line appears as a curve, because spacetime is bent around the Black Hole.

    Isn't escape speed affected by surrounding bodies? If a particle left a planet at fractionally below "traditional" escape velocity, but is heading towards another body, it may end up in the far bodies gravity well before it falls back to the home planet and it would eventually impact the far planet. If that body WASN'T there, the particle would eventually fall back to the original planet.

    Would jack experience blueshift of the Jill laser? Wouldn't it's pulses increase in frequency and decrease in wavelength until they're gamma rays? But past the event horizon because the space is contracting faster than the speed of light how could more energy be produced, it would have to be less I imagine, like how we're in an expanding spacetime faster than light supposedly they should look the same except the things outside of your light sphere not gravitationally bound should begin to red shift.. because they're no longer causally connected. Nothing Jack could do could effect anything outside that gravitational influence of the black hole. So distant galaxies not causally connected from faster than light travel should continue to red shift.
