    Idk how to say this well... it's like she's just talking to you. Like you're the new guy, you're both in the break room, and she's just excitedly telling you about herself and this research she adores. A touch nervous at times, but only in the best way that makes her that much more real. It's utterly captivating.

    The humble(ness) (of the) universe, despite the most powerful collisions ever happening, is the most beautiful thing one can ever witness. The fact that gravitational waves were observed and all they left was a gentle voice, a chirp, a soft wave, despite that grand energy collision holds a simple thought - humble yourself in the awe of that which holds you, moves you, and with that of which you are made dear starstuff. Thank you, dear fellow scientists, it is tears of awe that tears were made for.

  • @lbati

    I realize it may sound wild, but I genuinely think that gravitational waves serve as the method for advanced civilizations to communicate. It's similar to an upgraded edition of radio waves. Unlike radio waves, gravitational waves remain unaffected by mass interference. Consequently, it becomes an optimal and effective means to transmit data signals throughout the vast expanse of the universe. Perhaps, in the future, we will possess the ability to communicate in this manner and decipher the messages encoded within.

    so we age at different rates based on effects of gravitational waves, but only a minut amount? my mind is just running. this is crazy. can we learn to ride these waves or create them to speed up space travel?

    • @theneonpogodancer608
      @theneonpogodancer608 8 лет назад

      Yeah. You technically age slightly faster when you are closer to the center of the the earth. So, if you lie down, you are technically experiencing time much faster than you would be if you were standing up. And yeah, there are plenty of hypotheses that state that we could harness this type of wave to travel through space. That's why this discovery is so exciting. It will open us to new possibilities we can't even dream of yet.

    • @giorgiobuttiglieri9022
      @giorgiobuttiglieri9022 6 лет назад

      The Neon Pogo Dancer Actually if you find yourself in a stronger gravitational field, it is not that you expirience a dilation of time, it is your "clock" to become slower. So you would feel the time exactly like normal, but a second of your clock is more than a second of a clock in a weaker gravitational field.

    I've been posting this story for a while, now. Is it possible they're related?
    Time is fascinating. I worked the subway stations for nearly 10 years. From one end of the city to the other. Every so often I would notice the city would be saying that, "Today just flew by" or "The day was just dragging along." How can an entire city, with no interaction with each other until they used the subway, complain about the same time paradox unless it was effected by it? Maybe a time distorted bubble the earth passes through in its revolution around the sun. Maybe random waves of time distortion hitting the earth? Maybe they're given off by the sun. Maybe they're from outside our Terran system and reach us in intervals. ???? Ti-i-i-ime, is on my side. Yes, it is!

    Reality is fractal.
    I remember my first time tripping on mescaline a peculiar visual phenomenon. I was sitting opposite my friend and being able to make out the boundaries of his edges drifting outward through space from him. It was as though I was seeing a red-outlined mirage of his caricature emanate off of him as we sat there. I thought it was the most miraculous thing I've ever seen.
    We are matter and we are in motion and by virtue of this fact emanate gravitational waves which ripple out through the fabric of spacetime at the speed of light. The mere action of typing out these sentences is generating gravitational waves which will reverberate outward at the speed of light for an eternity. Every thought we think even shall reverberate.
    Is it possible that a substance can tune the brain to such a sensitivity that one can literally see these gravitational waves? I know it's a far off notion and implausible, but implausible does not mean not possible. I wonder if any others have shared this visual experience.
    And anyone whose been paying attention to their attention knows that the contents of one's consciousness seem to synchronistically be mirrored somehow by the environment, which includes all sources of sensory input and media that you consume.
    In other words the thoughts you think most often and with most emphasis and emotional attachment will have a causal effect on which information in the environment you are going to be predisposed to notice. On top of that, the imprint of that action, either taking place in the mind by thinking or taking place in the movement of the body, will echo on forever. Imagine billions of years from now a technology develops such that all the memory of the uncountable beings that have lived and died in the deep deep ancient past is detected and reconstituted into a library of records. All as a consequence of this insight into the nature of gravitational waves and how they can be used to reconstruct the past. If every thought leaves a signature, a tiny tiny gravitational wave, then it is conceivable that a technology could be devised that could translate that little waveform into a thoughtform - a reconstituted record of whatever you were thinking in the past.
    The end of the possibility of keeping secrets at all is near.

    I like her passion on the topic and making it entertaining enough for people who might have little interest on it. However, I'm a bit disappointed that she was not able to explain what gravity or spacetime is and how gravitational waves started as a theory by Einstein, a hundred year ago. The signal of the gravitational wave isn't exactly tiny. It is only tiny due to the extremely huge wavelengths of gravitational waves. This is the reason for the project LISA.
