- Science is on the verge of observing the ripples in spacetime caused by moving black holes; these gravitational waves will open a new window to the universe of things we can't see with light - things that could unlock some of the deepest mysteries about the universe.
Kelly Holley‐Bockelmann is an Associate Professor of Astronomy at Vanderbilt University, where she joined the faculty in 2007. She received her B.S. in Physics at Montana State University and her PhD in Astronomy in 1999 at the University of Michigan. After her PhD, she did postdoctoral work at Case Western Reserve University and the University of Massachusetts. In 2004, she joined the Center for Gravitational Wave Physics at The Pennsylvania State University. She is a recipient of a Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award from the National Science Foundation , is a Vanderbilt Chancellor Faculty Fellow, and her work has also been supported by NASA. Dr. Holley Bockelmann’s research on growing supermassive black holes and rogue black holes have been featured in many online and print media outlets, though she still gets a bit nervous talking to the press.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
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.
Message in the last few sentences was more powerful than the best mystic verses I have ever heard. *Great job*
I was fortunate enough to be at this talk. She made us laugh; she made us dance; she made us cry. Best TED talk I've seen.
Personally, her mannerisms irritate me. But I do like what she says, just wish she would quit giggling and get on with it.
Jess O'Donnell Nice entertainment, but faulty science.
@@dikhed1639 I thought she was nervous!?
@@dikhed1639 well I see your name jibes well with your views ;-)
Who knew a talk on gravitational waves could elicit so many emotions. Best talk of the day!
Wow what an incredible talk this is, so profound. So excited to see my Gravitational Waves Dress on stage during such a moving presentation. Kelly, you are so inspiring. This talk will live on in space time!
Nice job in crafting the dress. It looks really good on the speaker.
Thank you! :)

Haha, thats perfect!
BY FAR, one of the best TED talks I've ever seen and heard. It will ripple in my mind for quite a while, for sure. She made us all part of science, not mere subjects of science. Wish my astro teacher at Northwestern had purple hair, too (my favorite).
ooooohhh, what a profound ending... in print in space-time by everything we do... mind blown.
AWESOME!!
the way she explained ..how overwhelmed she is ...and
ending was Superb!!
I will always remember that.
Thankyou
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.
We need more talks like this! Plenty to think about, lots of heart.
this woman is adorable
Four years ago, you took the words outta my nowadays mouth. 🤓
Crush worthy
Watched this video for many times and still feeling her joy.
Every new discovery is sweet ❤️
How amazing that we are a part of the universe, and a part of it trying to understand itself.
She is so inspiring. Best ted talk I've ever heard
I think astrophysicists sometimes underestimate how meaningful their discoveries are to all of us mortals lol this made me tear up as well! I am thankful for them translating this meaningful event to everyday language. Waiting for the one with Spanish subtitles :)
I'm sitting at work watching this, and shes got me laughing out loud, lol. She has a great personality. Very smart as well.
I have to say that_this video was probably the most interesting one that I've watched of all the Tedx vids. This detector evidently made a profound & exciting_discovery. Well done to the_engineers & scientist_that made it happen.
It's incredible how enthusiastic she is about gravitational waves. She is so conscious about all the new discoveries to come!
very poetic ending. 'applauding*
Quite possibly THE BEST Ted Talk I have ever heard!
thank you Kelly Holley‐Bockelmann for this inspiring piece of science almost reaching a metaphysical level near the end.
i cant wait myself for the new revelations humanity will make thanks to the possibilities gravitational waves will open us.
Awesome talk . WE are FOREVER
I call that dedication. Great TED talk :-)
Why on earth would anyone give a thumbs down. I watched it twice.
.
So cool! Watched the video of her on reddit and searched it to leave a like, cause that was one awesome TED talk!!
Amazing. So grateful for this. Blessings.
Thank universe for evolved beings like her....who help us demystify the universe...pure science is not just magic but is also spiritual
Really special, humbling.
Fantastic talk from Kelly ....watched this just after video from Michelle Thaller ...great to see people so passionate and excited about science and the universe they're part of. I'm not a scientist or anything but ofen think about, in awe of and am fascinated by such things.
"...Your choices matter and are written in the Universe." Kelly u r amazing.
BRAVO!! Beautifully explain. Thank you.
That's a wow madam.. Both the gravitational wave and you are awes.. 👌
Thank you, Kelly.
That last bit touched me.😊
The last bit... Mind=Blown
The best explanation of gravitational waves I have seen or heard!
What a brilliant talk! So inspiring! (And she's super cute!!) ;)
Is she Emma Stone??
How amazing.
I like her! So much charisma.
Had to be have been one of the most enjoyable and funniest TED talks so far.
I got to meet her at this event!!! She is amazing!!!
Wonderfully moving.
I get paid "cash money" to understand dark matter and galaxies.... Gangsta.
Beauty and brains. I need a woman like this.
what a wonderful presentation by a very wonderful woman!
What a lovely woman.
Awesome talk!!
I just visited LIGO livingston and it was awesome!! Turns out I lived 20 minutes away my whole life and just recently found out about it
Spectacular!
Bless your soul, Albert!
such an amazing msg thank u much love
Gosh, I would like to hear more from you!
breathtaking
This was GREAT!!
Speechless !
extraordinary
so adorable. the dream of understanding astro things. and now here she is. xD
I loved it !
Real life Big Bang theory (show) personality right here. Funny woman, but maybe because I’m a geek myself. I get excited by things that most people just shrug at. Proof of waves in space time blew my mind. So much so it’s still blowing in a wave that passed through me.
she is just amazing
Wow that was great!
Wow just wow
She has an UNDENIABLE personality that is extremely likeable.I also learned some things from this talk. But its hard to not notice her attractiveness. Im sure she’s an amazing cosmologist, but she’s also pretty good at commanding an audience ,regardless of her nervousness.
Not gonna lie. I cried a bit. It's quite profound.
i love the dress!
I like her energy she possesses! She also kinda reminds me of Phoebe from Friends :D
I also have looked at the night sky in Montana. It is an awesome sight which cannot be described. You can see meteors and satellites and a billion more stars than you can see anywhere near a city and its light pollution.
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?
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.
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.
Love Tedx talks
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.

When this lovely girl says “humanity discovered that the world was round” i believe she is referring to Mikołaj Kopernik discovery that the earth is going around the sun and not the opposite , not that the sun is ‘appearing and disappearing’ around the earth ... sorry for being a bit annoying but i believe that it was such significant discovery that it deserves factual picturing ... and yes I am from Poland ... same as Mikołaj ;))
All the best to all of you science diggers !
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!
Lovely
She is SO gorgeous and self aware. WOW.
Very good material!, I want to collaborate in the translation of this talk to spanish language, how can I do that?
You had me at 'lay back and look up', and ur beautiful
shes so cute i love her
Sounds like another type of wave to me !
WOW, She is very beautiful and smart !!
Sterile neutrino is a gravitational wave by oscillation between 3 flavor neutrino which's gravitational wave oscillating between Planck, proton, Atom scale, it create gravitational torsion between magnetic moment of Muon, Electron.
You made a statement unforgettable
Thanks, I'm making a tune with the sound of gravity.
GREAT
Astrophysicist. Holy molly. That takes a lot of brainpower. She could likely power all the homes in my town. PLUS... she's really pretty.
nice talk
Ok ok. Very cutesy in a Bridget Jones kinda way (But better). She actually generated and utilised the nervous energy and did a job that would appeal to all members of the family table - Greatjob
I believe this speaker is also a fire dancer. As well as attractive in every way possible.
What a wonderful woman. I would have taken more science from her.
What she means is we can see ghost particles now, not friendly
Her dealer has really, really good stuff :)))
I think I just fell in love with an astrophysicist
Embrace the geek, you're awesome.
A really cute nerd..., love the sharing🌹
short and sharp
This woman is so cute and so amazing, This is how a presentation should be made. Every cell in her was talking to me in person.
Just amazing, I had to watch this from beginning to end. However the amount of adds was absolutely pathetic. Beyond acceptable. Every two minutes.
I like her a lot. A LOT.
We are geeks......
You are adorable and super intelligent
Cutest gravitational physicist ever 👩🔬 👌👍👏
