universe is everything, then what is outside of it? This is a question that has been asked for centuries, and even today, we don't have a definitive answer. But as this video shows, the universe is not just a static, unchanging entity. It's expanding and evolving, and we're just starting to scratch the surface of understanding its mysteries. Melody, the narrator's childhood friend, was unafraid to ask the big questions, and it's that kind of curiosity and willingness to explore that has driven us to make so many incredible discoveries about the universe. Who knows what we'll uncover next
in college, I took a black holes, relativity and cosmology course.. and asked my professor this very question.. what was outside the edge.. He laughed it off and said I was stupid for asking it and no idea what I was talking about. If this guy had been my professor.. I would have gotten an A in that course.. he explained it in 30 seconds.. even if it is just a theory because we really don't know.. it satisfies that question.
how can there Be an edge , when everything moves away from each other every galaxy is moving away from every other galaxy at the speed of light ... trust me , there's No edge or we would see waves coming back in the background radiation picture there isn't a center Because there is no edge , when you get That statement , you'll get the point

James sir, you are an incredible lecturer, and educator. You make your lecturing come alive! Your articulating and the knack of making extremely complicated science classes, understandable to thick empty headed people like me, is a gift! You are special, my friend!! Thanks for educating me in the workings of the Universe! 😊
Man I love these subjects so much I wish I had the math skills to enter this field. Dr. James is amazing at these lectures just dropping gems left and right.
Everybody should just watch the videos about the double split experiment to vaguely understand what quantum physics is trying to deal with. And then watch a video on Entanglement and your head will just explode.
I don't why he suddenly pivoted to completely abstract discussion of life's existence with picking up the tablet and just reading off the script. Until then I was totally immersed in his lecture.
Yeah him suddenly holding and reading off the tablet was odd and shows he didnt fully prepare for this lecture. The whole portion of him reading off about how all electrons are the same and they are just part of the electron field not tobe viewed as individual entities was strange as well. I can rattle that off without having to read it off a screen.
I notice that too, I was engaged till he start reading from that tablet. But in my mind I totally understand that. I guess he wanted to choose his words carefully especially when it meant a lot more philosophy and in morality. Look how he get back to the tablet at 44:40 It seems obviously he is avoiding any misconception might be taking out of context.
Great guy... Explains vividly and easily explained. Following him at "the royal institute" which, by the way, is a fantastic "place" with many fantastic people with fantastic lectures.
Scientist and motivator! And I didn't think one can combine all these aspects in same lecture. My understanding of the universe(s) became better with your lectures without having to know all the complex math. Thank you!
I used to lay in bed as a kid looking through the cracks in my bedroom curtains wondering about all this. My brain did the same thing then as it is doing now, overload and lock up.
Can anyone explain to me: How do we know its the entirety of space that's expanding? How do we know the big bang isn't just an expansion of matter and energy into a pre-existing - and possibly infinite - void?
Part of it is that - assuming we accept the theory of relativity, which I would say is a healthy assumption given the massive experimental evidence - it is the only explanation of the fact that the further away objects are from us, the faster they appear to recede. That can only be explained by assuming space itself expands. If 'stuff' just kept on moving in all directions 'in space' from 'some explosion' this would not be the case. Try to visualise both concepts in your head and you can actually understand this. The confusing comment in the talk about that the space that makes up you is also inflating leaves out that inflation is overcome by gravity, which is why local galaxies don't recede for example. One is actually on a collision course with our Milky Way. Why it happens is a different question entirely of course, but the inflation of space is simply an observable fact, assuming (again) that Relativity is really a thing.
We dont. Its just the accepted theory on existence because the past few hundred years and we've decided that based on what we can see now must be absolute truth. I'm sure it wont change based on another few hundred years when we detect even farther out.... Oh also being unable to describe over 80% of the mass and gravity of the universe as just invisible matter isnt a factor whatsoever either. Its just fact. Even if we cant see, or interact or even prove what it actually is
@@nelson_rebel3907 GR has been tested over and over and has yet to fail in any of its predictions- bending of space-time due to massive objects, frame dragging, gravitational waves, time dilation, etc. That doesn’t mean a new theory couldn’t explain dark matter and dark energy, that’s just scientific progression. Just like Newton’s laws aren’t “wrong” Einstein just came up with a more complete theory
That’s what scientists are trying to discover. What might cause this expansion? Is the universe truly infinite, and what would that mean? There are many such unanswered questions.
One of the most compelling words ever spoken that i have ever encountered. In the scheme of our universe our mother Earth is so insignificant, too small to be even noticed and we think we are big and mighty. we are not. What does it take for us humans to realise this Fact.
Earth is special and it is insignificant. It can be both things at the same time. Life may only exist on Earth out of the whole universe. But then again life may be abundant across the universe. But then again the universe is so big contact between life forms across the universe may be impossible. So we may be in effect alone.
@@redmed10 Exactly what I thought. We maybe alone. We maybe not. But we are effectively alone, 100%. Unless we see evidence for us to believe otherwise.
It’s because human beings by our nature have always had a need to be at the center. The need for everything to revolve around us. It’s one of the huge flaws in us. Most people are so self involved and so self important. The ones that think this way often are not very bright I should add. We evolved to think this way and it’s still there wired into our genetics. Also the world’s religion’s teach us that we are at the center of the universe, so we’ve got that ever existing massive hurdle. Until science, which taught me the truth, teaches people the truth, the masses will continue along thinking like this, and just going on like oblivious fools
@@C.D.J.Burton I was enjoying the video until I heard him say those words. Its a shame. I had to rewind the youtube video because I was suprised tbh. For someone in His position to revert to that is shocking espeshialy when science itslef should be represented regardless of skin colour. I was about to share His video on social media but after that statement he made I am declining.
Would it make sense that the interaction between energy and dark matter is what makes this plane of existence possible? That the universe (bubble) we live in is just that? Can it pop? Is it a snowglobe waiting to be shaken up again? Is the multiverse balanced or slightly askew to keep the perpetual motion going? Are we on the big turtle? I only possess a high school diploma I earned over 20 years ago, so the fact he was reading off a tablet and I'm watching him on my computer now, saying things my half-educated ass thought in 1996 is bonkers.
While physics isn't my field of study, from what I understand, the universe wouldn't exist as it does without dark matter. At the very least, galaxies wouldn't have formed without the concentrating and binding effect of dark matter. As far as the universe "popping," the closest to a consensus we currently have doesn't suggest a definitive end beyond the universe eventually expanding to the point at which even protons are torn apart in a process referred to as the "heat-death of the universe." Stars will exhaust their supplies of Hydrogen, Helium, and eventually every fusible element until only blackholes remain; at which point, they will slowly evaporate due to Hawking radiation over unfathomable spans of time and blink out of existence. That's currently the most popular view, at least, but like all science, it's provisional and liable to change. Oh, and _yes,_ it's turtles all the way down. Edit: Fixed some typos and awkward wording.
Great lecture about physics. Kind of ironic he's bashing capitalism when his particle accelerator is a staggeringly expensive tool built for basic research, not profit.
Didn't like his reference to two white guys winning the nobel prize with a snide remark and then his mention of priviledge and his apparent woke ideology. This was not necessary in an otherwise good talk. He should just stick to science.
Bosons are named after particles discovered by Indian Scientist Dr. Bose but nobody seems to mention his name when talking about HiggsBosons . It is always about the British , Dr Higgs including when awarding Nobel prize.
@@truthsayer5824 @Sheng-Jin Zhou The word ‘boson’ was named for S.N. Bose not because he discovered bosons. It was named so by Paul Dirac, a Nobel Prize winning physicist, to honour Bose’s contribution to the Bose-Einstein statistics, work he did with Albert Einstein on defining the general properties of all bosons. S.N. Bose - great man, great contribution, but he has nothing to do with the Higgs boson in particular, except that this particle is a boson. What’s being celebrated about the Higgs is not being done in denial of Bose’s contributions because there is nothing to deny. The physics behind what's going on now has more to do with how the hunt for one particular boson is shaping modern particle physics.
James Beacham, you have composed a poem, an epic, a symphony, which is the universe, our universe. I always thought that the universe, by definition, is all inclusive, and thus, there cannot be any "outside the universe". But then, we run into the problem of infinity. There is no way for finite beings to grasp infinity, not even the concept. Word is that, as you put it, infinity means repetition, and thus the existence of multiverse. We may need a different terminology, but, even within the current definition, multiverse need to break out of the traditional spatial confine to have any claim to existence. Multiverse is a dimensional concept, not a separate spatial existence, that inhabits within our own universe, within ourselves.
I can grasp infinity going forward. I completely comprehend an infinite amount of time from this point forward. I have a hard time grasping an infinite past. Obviously that comes from our idea that everything has a beginning.
@@Phillip713 Instead of hyper-sphere topology, with implication of big bang........ consider a hyper-torus topology, which allows locally observable less than uniform expansion, permits unobservable ( to us ) contraction elsewhere, accepts the possibility of saddle shaped spacetime, in which time is a circle with an ever moving "now" 180 degrees removed from an ever moving "eternity" ....... Big bang was never more than an implication of an assumption, anyway, and always raised more questions than it answered.
@@Phillip713 "I completely comprehend an infinite amount of time . . . " Do you? Do you, really? That's like, a termite, in Missouri, (no offense), saying, "I completely comprehend the total expanse, and depth, of the pacific ocean. . . . " Do you? Do you, really? No. No one can 'comprehend' eternity, going forward, or past; because, the one, is the same as the other. When it comes to eternity, there is no future or past, it all, just; IS. Sitting in the Doctor's Waiting Room may seem like forever; but, we can't immagine, the Doctor never appearing. Never! Ever, appearing! There would he no 'purpose' in our waiting. We can't comprehend Forever! We can try to immagine it. But anything we can articulate, will be mere speculation and assumption. Not comprehension. Not a full understanding.
In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the earth. Genesis chapter 1, verse 1. Time began , space and matter was created. God is the Creator of everything, as the bible says. Why not believe this?
@@donaldgodin3491 They can't 'believe' it. Because, to them, the Bible seems like mere 'Fantasy'. And, they would rather, cling on, to their 'Science Fiction'. But, adding the word 'science', doesn't make the 'fiction' any more true. We are so enamoured of technology these days, that science fiction seems more plausible than fantasy. And yet, their 'science fiction' is pointing to the truth of the 'fantasy', Science is proving the Bible to be true, more and more, every year.
The multiverse hypothesis proposes that our universe might be one of many, each with its own set of physical laws, existing in a vast multiverse. Alternatively, some speculate that what we perceive as the edge of the universe could be an illusion, with space curving back on itself in a higher-dimensional structure, making the universe finite but unbounded, similar to how the surface of a sphere has no edge. As our understanding of quantum mechanics, dark energy, and string theory advances, we may get closer to addressing this tantalizing question.
Dr James' views of scientific truth is quite wholesome and satisfying as his notion of fear leaves the things quite open for the future possibilities of human desire to know in the decades to come.
Honestly if anybody is nerdy on this kind of information like me you've seen this guy before I don't really know him but I love the way he tells his stories it's so gripping. Man and I thought Brian Greene was intriguing and regular- knowledge people friendly. I will dig deeper in this man's work
Particle physics is a psyop, I great man said "if you want to find the secrets of the universe you need to think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration"

Would you be more satisfied if the particle was called the Bosehiggson? Besides, you can make the same point of many scientists, like Gunnar Nordström vs Einstein, or Tesla vs Edison. At least history is acknowledging their scientific contributions, even if its long after the fact.
In the last decade or so I've often thought about how humans (& possibly other animals) may possibly experience the expansion of the universe & then that may possibly affect our experience of nostalgia. Most of us may usually agree that even independently of family life, we nearly always look back more fondly of our younger years and regard those times as being better back then & usually associate it only with different stages & ages in life. But what if; That is driven, at least in part, by an ability we may have to sense how the expansion of everything including in our bodies and around us progresses. Then as the years & decades pass we at least subconciously perceive & remember the relative differences in how close together things are & since it's always expanding, things seemed better years ago because everything was closer together !? There is at least a couple of ways that I can think of that we could perceive this & that's primarily; if light moves at a constant speed then everything takes longer & longer to percieve visually as time goes on &; electical signals would also take longer to get around our body and brain leaving us thinking (& maybe moving) slower than in the past. This possible ability of humans to perceive this could also affect or at least be partly responsible for our perception of time speeding up as we get older which I think nearly all of us would say it does. If there is any truth to that, I think our usually somewhat bias nostalgia is also naturally affected by other obvious factors such as levels of pollution, chaos & other things & events negativly, positively or neutrally percieved in our world around us & how we remember them. I'm aware of course that nearly all of our bias nostalgia may just stem from our lives usually being a bit easier to live to the fullest when we were younger. (1/Jan/2023-12:19pm🇦🇺EST)
@@DrSbaitsojr Even when the universe was very small, it was still everywhere ! You need to imagine the concept "null". Null is not a thing or empty space. It's not even nothing !
This sounds nice and perhaps scientifically dogmatic bc it’s an old cop out answer that is a paradox to itself. If the universe was everywhere, then how was it created? That’s an absolute paradox. Scientists have probably just as lousy of answers for this insanely important and prof question as religion has. Again, that might sound sweet to a cosmetologist, but the common critical thinking intelligent individual it makes no sense. It’s purely dogmatic at this point and again for the third time paradoxical :)
I’m glad this cosmologist/physicist is skeptical of some of modern science insofar as he opines that much of what we don’t know is unknowable to humanity at least in our current condition. What lies beyond, if anything, may be revealed to us in some time, condition or space made known to us either in life or after death
It would have to be in this life. Once we die we cease to exist and return to the earth. The afterlife is a dream. It is a hope like place that people hope and dream to be one day. Stick to the facts that we know of

@@donaldgodin3491yea it would be fantastic if you stared anything from the bible. It is entirely fictitious. He mostly sticks to science facts. Don’t do the Bible thumping stuff here please!!!!

He knows his job. Thanks for being triggered! Fascists and right wingers actively prevent the progression of mankind and its gathering of information and furtherance of science.
"Electron is an excitation in a background quantum field that permeates the entire universe." It's amazing how uncannily similar the quantum field theory is to the theory of 'Advaita' or 'non-duality' from Vedic philosophy of India. My yoga guru gave the example of waves that rise and fall in a ocean an an analogy to explain the relationship between atman (individual consciousness) and brahman (universal consciousness).
It’s more fun to think about the meaning behind it all, why do we exist, and try to focus on your breathing as you try to fall asleep, all without making yourself insane or wondering what happens to you after death and what this all means.
Yes it definitely is!!!!! Thank you! This is the comment I’ve been thinking of in my mind but it wouldn’t pop in there until just now! Thnx!!! We spend too much mental energy contemplating the unknowns. Live life in the moment. Although truthfully the present moment doesn’t exist, it’s just the past events that pass into the future events but never mind the technicalities. Great comment
If "multiverse" describes regions of the universe that are outside of our "observable universe" and merely impossible to access because of "inflation" then those regions are still part of our universe. If, on the other hand, multi-universes are totally separate entities with "nothing" beyond their boundaries, then the CMB cold spot could not be due to a "touching" of universes because there are no physical coordinates in "nothing".

This shit is garbage to me,Tbh. Glad everyone’s excited that the LHC is about to rip open a portal & let ancient demons pour in. Jesus Christ is real & science was invented to disprove spirituality.
Two questions. 1 if a particle and antipartical collide a massless photon is created. What happens to the mass? 2 If you observe a galaxy 10 billion lightyears away the light has been traveling for 10 billion years, but if you included time dilation might the galaxy much younger and thus much farther away than it appears even at that time. If so, how would time dilation change the calculation of space expansion?
Thank you I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed that it gets worse if you watch the rest of the video. Something about white privilege or something.

I think he just likes to hear himself talk and wants to spread his Ultra left wing crap on the rest of the world
Brilliant, and heartfelt too. Reminded me of Carl Sagan (or what I know of him at least). I do have one question that haunts me for absolutely no reason but has done so for years. It comes from the idea of a multiverse, the suggestion (or fact?) that Time comes in to being when the Universe does, and the bit I read about in A Brief History Of Time about there being no way to communicate between iterations of universes. So here it is: is it possibly that there is both ONE Universe AND a multiverse simultaneously? In terms of the “bruising”, if it’s the case that there can be no contact of any kind whatsoever between universes (or no information can survive), does that mean that although another universe could have a causal effect upon our own (especially so if there is also a cycle of creation and recreation at play) and yet not necessarily exist before ours? Could it just be ONE Universe, expressing all of it’s possibilities simultaneously like a wave-function, but just falling into actuality as if the wave function has collapsed and here we are, with the exception (from that analogy) being that they all do/did/will exist (because there is nothing to stop them doing/having done/being destined to do so? Sorry - was meant to be one question but, ironically, I think it might still be so.
This would have been a fantastic presentation had it not turned into a leftist political argument. How ironic that a scientist in the western world can criticize everything that made his science possible.
What if we all quit our jobs... yeah.. 1. We would get fired. 2. We would be homeless. 3. No one would mow your lawn or serve you a burger at a learning wage. Etc.
I started asking this question when I was 5 years old. I imagined the universe being a child's room with everything piled up on top like toys upon toys everything one could imagine must exist somewhere? And then I always wondered what was beyond the room?
As a physics major, I'll tell you something... No one ...not even her knows it... Chances are She makes a career out of it to get funding ...explains THE WOKE POLITICS agenda at the end She or anyone currently alive can't even explain all of what's there inside the universe with present knowledge, can't even see more than 14 billion light years away/into the past .... It's all speculation no better than/probably even lesser probable than the multiverse and surprisingly the existence of a god is just as probable , if not more ... When did science become more speculative than even religion?
When I was age five, I asked what happens if I swallow a seed when eating an apple. They told me I would turn into a tree...and it's time to go to bed. I quit asking questions any later than lunch time....and still don't.
Had to pause at 40:07 because this morning I was thinking about this topic and literally picked up "perfectly ripe peach" in hand and though to myself as I bit into how this taste is created by a complex arrangement of quantum particles on a boundary and I'm experiencing it somehow, so on the nose part of me felt like this is too much of a coincidence
He says you would not exist if the higgs bozon did not exist. You wouldn't exist without all the other particles either. So this particle he is talking about is not more important than all the others. And who is to say you wouldn't exist even if all the known particles didn't exist. You may not exist the way you do now, but no one can say you wouldn't exist in a different way
@@DignanDerkin regardless. All of it is necessary.. glue without anything to glue has no use. To say one is more important than the other, is like saying a woman is more important than a man when it comes to conceiving a child. The man and the woman are equally important to achieve that
Higgs is said to be the "glue" that holds matter together, which gives it mass. Other particles existed, but without the Higgs field we wouldn't exist because nothing would be held together.
One primary reason of objecting a super collider is not the fear of knowledge. It is the triage of limited resource to scientific inquiry. We have limited resources. And the unified quantum-gravity theory may not be the most important question. Dedicating resource to the super collider implies sacrificing funding for other scientific inquiry and discovery.

He really just went on a massive fucking rant. The white male comment was a little eye brow raising not to mention racist, but at that time stamp he almost loses his shit.
I had the same theory on an infinite universe when I was 13 years old. It doesn't take a particle physicist to conjure this idea up. This guy basically said things we've already known for many years for an hour.
And then he laid a guilt trip on all white males for being white males …. I’m surprised he didn’t use that as a segway to a lecture on white privilege.

Part of it is that - assuming we accept the theory of relativity, which I would say is a healthy assumption given the massive experimental evidence - it is the only explanation of the fact that the further away objects are from us, the faster they appear to recede. That can only be explained by assuming space itself expands. If 'stuff' just kept on moving in all directions 'in space' from 'some explosion' this would not be the case. Try to visualise both concepts in your head and you can actually understand this. The confusing comment in the talk about that the space that makes up you is also inflating leaves out that inflation is overcome by gravity, which is why local galaxies don't recede for example. One is actually on a collision course with our Milky Way.
Why it happens is a different question entirely of course, but the inflation of space is simply an observable fact, assuming (again) that Relativity is really a thing.
We dont.
Its just the accepted theory on existence because the past few hundred years and we've decided that based on what we can see now must be absolute truth.
I'm sure it wont change based on another few hundred years when we detect even farther out....
Oh also being unable to describe over 80% of the mass and gravity of the universe as just invisible matter isnt a factor whatsoever either. Its just fact. Even if we cant see, or interact or even prove what it actually is
@@nelson_rebel3907 GR has been tested over and over and has yet to fail in any of its predictions- bending of space-time due to massive objects, frame dragging, gravitational waves, time dilation, etc. That doesn’t mean a new theory couldn’t explain dark matter and dark energy, that’s just scientific progression. Just like Newton’s laws aren’t “wrong” Einstein just came up with a more complete theory
If the universe is expanding there has to be an edge orbit can’t be growing.
That’s what scientists are trying to discover. What might cause this expansion? Is the universe truly infinite, and what would that mean? There are many such unanswered questions.
Great Speach James, a delight to listen to you with much attention.
Thank you sir for educating us in the manner that you do. Truly appreciate you.

This! Brilliant but the mouth noises are so distracting!!!!!
One of the most compelling words ever spoken that i have ever encountered. In the scheme of our universe our mother Earth is so insignificant, too small to be even noticed and we think we are big and mighty. we are not. What does it take for us humans to realise this Fact.
Question: Assume humans DO realise this and internalize it.
How does this knowledge change the way humans live, work and act here on Earth?
Earth is special and it is insignificant. It can be both things at the same time. Life may only exist on Earth out of the whole universe. But then again life may be abundant across the universe. But then again the universe is so big contact between life forms across the universe may be impossible. So we may be in effect alone.
@@redmed10 Exactly what I thought. We maybe alone. We maybe not. But we are effectively alone, 100%. Unless we see evidence for us to believe otherwise.
It’s because human beings by our nature have always had a need to be at the center. The need for everything to revolve around us. It’s one of the huge flaws in us. Most people are so self involved and so self important. The ones that think this way often are not very bright I should add. We evolved to think this way and it’s still there wired into our genetics. Also the world’s religion’s teach us that we are at the center of the universe, so we’ve got that ever existing massive hurdle. Until science, which taught me the truth, teaches people the truth, the masses will continue along thinking like this, and just going on like oblivious fools
I reckon somewhere in the universe, there was also a particle physicist delivering a talk on social justice.

🤣😎 underrated comment! #42
Would it make sense that the interaction between energy and dark matter is what makes this plane of existence possible? That the universe (bubble) we live in is just that? Can it pop? Is it a snowglobe waiting to be shaken up again? Is the multiverse balanced or slightly askew to keep the perpetual motion going? Are we on the big turtle?
I only possess a high school diploma I earned over 20 years ago, so the fact he was reading off a tablet and I'm watching him on my computer now, saying things my half-educated ass thought in 1996 is bonkers.
While physics isn't my field of study, from what I understand, the universe wouldn't exist as it does without dark matter. At the very least, galaxies wouldn't have formed without the concentrating and binding effect of dark matter. As far as the universe "popping," the closest to a consensus we currently have doesn't suggest a definitive end beyond the universe eventually expanding to the point at which even protons are torn apart in a process referred to as the "heat-death of the universe." Stars will exhaust their supplies of Hydrogen, Helium, and eventually every fusible element until only blackholes remain; at which point, they will slowly evaporate due to Hawking radiation over unfathomable spans of time and blink out of existence. That's currently the most popular view, at least, but like all science, it's provisional and liable to change. Oh, and _yes,_ it's turtles all the way down.
Edit: Fixed some typos and awkward wording.
Going to 43 minutes tells us who he really is....someone who wants what he wants, and knows better what you need. Sound familiar?
i saw it earlier when he slammed the notion of two white men as usual winning the noble prize or the higgs
Great lecture about physics. Kind of ironic he's bashing capitalism when his particle accelerator is a staggeringly expensive tool built for basic research, not profit.
You want to have this dude at the collider. Super smart. Huge brain. Made me feel smart.
What a moving "talk". How much have a learnt from you. Thanks, a thousend thanks. Send my love to my sister in this universe, Melody.
Didn't like his reference to two white guys winning the nobel prize with a snide remark and then his mention of priviledge and his apparent woke ideology. This was not necessary in an otherwise good talk. He should just stick to science.
Bosons are named after particles discovered by Indian Scientist Dr. Bose but nobody seems to mention his name when talking about HiggsBosons . It is always about the British , Dr Higgs including when awarding Nobel prize.
^what they said. also, never heard of political science? we don’t call it that for no reason 💀💀
@@truthsayer5824
@Sheng-Jin Zhou
The word ‘boson’ was named for S.N. Bose not because he discovered bosons. It was named so by Paul Dirac, a Nobel Prize winning physicist, to honour Bose’s contribution to the Bose-Einstein statistics, work he did with Albert Einstein on defining the general properties of all bosons.
S.N. Bose - great man, great contribution, but he has nothing to do with the Higgs boson in particular, except that this particle is a boson.
What’s being celebrated about the Higgs is not being done in denial of Bose’s contributions because there is nothing to deny.
The physics behind what's going on now has more to do with how the hunt for one particular boson is shaping modern particle physics.
@@marhier Thanks for that clarification.
James Beacham, you have composed a poem, an epic, a symphony, which is the universe, our universe.
I always thought that the universe, by definition, is all inclusive, and thus, there cannot be any "outside the universe". But then, we run into the problem of infinity. There is no way for finite beings to grasp infinity, not even the concept.
Word is that, as you put it, infinity means repetition, and thus the existence of multiverse. We may need a different terminology, but, even within the current definition, multiverse need to break out of the traditional spatial confine to have any claim to existence. Multiverse is a dimensional concept, not a separate spatial existence, that inhabits within our own universe, within ourselves.
I can grasp infinity going forward. I completely comprehend an infinite amount of time from this point forward. I have a hard time grasping an infinite past. Obviously that comes from our idea that everything has a beginning.
@@Phillip713 Instead of hyper-sphere topology, with implication of big bang........ consider a hyper-torus topology, which allows locally observable less than uniform expansion, permits unobservable ( to us ) contraction elsewhere, accepts the possibility of saddle shaped spacetime, in which time is a circle with an ever moving "now" 180 degrees removed from an ever moving "eternity" ....... Big bang was never more than an implication of an assumption, anyway, and always raised more questions than it answered.
@@Phillip713
"I completely comprehend an infinite amount of time . . . "

No.
No one can 'comprehend' eternity, going forward, or past; because, the one, is the same as the other.
When it comes to eternity, there is no future or past, it all, just; IS.

But anything we can articulate, will be mere speculation and assumption.
Not comprehension.
Not a full understanding.
In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the earth. Genesis chapter 1, verse 1. Time began , space and matter was created. God is the Creator of everything, as the bible says.
Why not believe this?
@@donaldgodin3491
They can't 'believe' it.
Because, to them, the Bible seems like mere 'Fantasy'.
And, they would rather, cling on, to their 'Science Fiction'. But, adding the word 'science', doesn't make the 'fiction' any more true.
We are so enamoured of technology these days, that science fiction seems more plausible than fantasy.
And yet, their 'science fiction' is pointing to the truth of the 'fantasy',
Science is proving the Bible to be true, more and more, every year.
I don't think the comment about "Two white males" was necessary. That was just weird.
The multiverse hypothesis proposes that our universe might be one of many, each with its own set of physical laws, existing in a vast multiverse. Alternatively, some speculate that what we perceive as the edge of the universe could be an illusion, with space curving back on itself in a higher-dimensional structure, making the universe finite but unbounded, similar to how the surface of a sphere has no edge. As our understanding of quantum mechanics, dark energy, and string theory advances, we may get closer to addressing this tantalizing question.
By far one of the best presentations of this subject
Always a pleasure listening to him speak. I have so much adoration for James 😌🤩
Agree!
Dr James' views of scientific truth is quite wholesome and satisfying as his notion of fear leaves the things quite open for the future possibilities of human desire to know in the decades to come.
Honestly if anybody is nerdy on this kind of information like me you've seen this guy before I don't really know him but I love the way he tells his stories it's so gripping.

Get this guy a cup of water lol
In the last decade or so I've often thought about how humans (& possibly other animals) may possibly experience the expansion of the universe & then that may possibly affect our experience of nostalgia.
Most of us may usually agree that even independently of family life, we nearly always look back more fondly of our younger years and regard those times as being better back then & usually associate it only with different stages & ages in life.
But what if;
That is driven, at least in part, by an ability we may have to sense how the expansion of everything including in our bodies and around us progresses. Then as the years & decades pass we at least subconciously perceive & remember the relative differences in how close together things are & since it's always expanding, things seemed better years ago because everything was closer together !?
There is at least a couple of ways that I can think of that we could perceive this & that's primarily; if light moves at a constant speed then everything takes longer & longer to percieve visually as time goes on &; electical signals would also take longer to get around our body and brain leaving us thinking (& maybe moving) slower than in the past.
This possible ability of humans to perceive this could also affect or at least be partly responsible for our perception of time speeding up as we get older which I think nearly all of us would say it does.
If there is any truth to that, I think our usually somewhat bias nostalgia is also naturally affected by other obvious factors such as levels of pollution, chaos & other things & events negativly, positively or neutrally percieved in our world around us & how we remember them.
I'm aware of course that nearly all of our bias nostalgia may just stem from our lives usually being a bit easier to live to the fullest when we were younger.

There is no "outside".

Even when the universe was very small, it was still everywhere !
You need to imagine the concept "null".
Null is not a thing or empty space.
It's not even nothing !
Wow! You rock Tony! Keep telling it like it is.
But that doesn’t make sense
This sounds nice and perhaps scientifically dogmatic bc it’s an old cop out answer that is a paradox to itself. If the universe was everywhere, then how was it created? That’s an absolute paradox. Scientists have probably just as lousy of answers for this insanely important and prof question as religion has. Again, that might sound sweet to a cosmetologist, but the common critical thinking intelligent individual it makes no sense. It’s purely dogmatic at this point and again for the third time paradoxical :)
His hair cut does indeed demonstrate that he knows what he’s talking about. At the same time I don’t know what he’s talking about.
I’m glad this cosmologist/physicist is skeptical of some of modern science insofar as he opines that much of what we don’t know is unknowable to humanity at least in our current condition. What lies beyond, if anything, may be revealed to us in some time, condition or space made known to us either in life or after death
It would have to be in this life. Once we die we cease to exist and return to the earth. The afterlife is a dream. It is a hope like place that people hope and dream to be one day. Stick to the facts that we know of

If "multiverse" describes regions of the universe that are outside of our "observable universe" and merely impossible to access because of "inflation" then those regions are still part of our universe. If, on the other hand, multi-universes are totally separate entities with "nothing" beyond their boundaries, then the CMB cold spot could not be due to a "touching" of universes because there are no physical coordinates in "nothing".
There is no such thing as "nothing"

Brilliant, and heartfelt too. Reminded me of Carl Sagan (or what I know of him at least). I do have one question that haunts me for absolutely no reason but has done so for years. It comes from the idea of a multiverse, the suggestion (or fact?) that Time comes in to being when the Universe does, and the bit I read about in A Brief History Of Time about there being no way to communicate between iterations of universes.
So here it is: is it possibly that there is both ONE Universe AND a multiverse simultaneously? In terms of the “bruising”, if it’s the case that there can be no contact of any kind whatsoever between universes (or no information can survive), does that mean that although another universe could have a causal effect upon our own (especially so if there is also a cycle of creation and recreation at play) and yet not necessarily exist before ours?
Could it just be ONE Universe, expressing all of it’s possibilities simultaneously like a wave-function, but just falling into actuality as if the wave function has collapsed and here we are, with the exception (from that analogy) being that they all do/did/will exist (because there is nothing to stop them doing/having done/being destined to do so?
Sorry - was meant to be one question but, ironically, I think it might still be so.
I love this comment!

Had to pause at 40:07 because this morning I was thinking about this topic and literally picked up "perfectly ripe peach" in hand and though to myself as I bit into how this taste is created by a complex arrangement of quantum particles on a boundary and I'm experiencing it somehow, so on the nose part of me felt like this is too much of a coincidence
He says you would not exist if the higgs bozon did not exist. You wouldn't exist without all the other particles either. So this particle he is talking about is not more important than all the others. And who is to say you wouldn't exist even if all the known particles didn't exist. You may not exist the way you do now, but no one can say you wouldn't exist in a different way
i see what you’re saying but it’s sort of the glue to the building blocks
@@DignanDerkin regardless. All of it is necessary.. glue without anything to glue has no use. To say one is more important than the other, is like saying a woman is more important than a man when it comes to conceiving a child. The man and the woman are equally important to achieve that
Higgs is said to be the "glue" that holds matter together, which gives it mass. Other particles existed, but without the Higgs field we wouldn't exist because nothing would be held together.
@@mjc429 and without other particles the glue would have nothing to hold together. And once again you wouldn't exist
@@richardnelson4112 Richard is really just stating the obvious here!
short answer - we don't know
Longer short answer - we will NEVER know
Thx, I owe you an hour.
Considering String and Quantum theory, we can’t know. We just cant comprehend it.

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you.
Why is it so beautiful? If I say God made space, matter and time, (Genesis chapter 1, verse 1)is this beautiful to you? If not, why?
Don't have much to say. Amazing talk.
Engaging galactic storytelling! Thanks 😊
Wow, really big imagination! Build Moon Collider and that’s still not enough ( solar system collider ).
What a moment! Great storyteller
A story teller, but not 1% of truth.
Beautiful lecture! A blend of Albert Einstein and John Lennon.
I would love to hang out with him for a week, I could be much more informed..
This great till it got political
One primary reason of objecting a super collider is not the fear of knowledge. It is the triage of limited resource to scientific inquiry. We have limited resources. And the unified quantum-gravity theory may not be the most important question. Dedicating resource to the super collider implies sacrificing funding for other scientific inquiry and discovery.
Why does each galaxy in the universe spin WAY faster than it should? I wonder how many people in Gaza are considering this question .... I respect the question, but "what you ARE speaks so loud, I cannot hear what you are saying". It's GREAT to look at the stars .... just so long as the rest of humanity has the space to do so ..... and I say this to someone whom I KNOW has a deep social conscience. So, LOVE and .... kinda .... RESPECT.
Bravo..AAA+++
FFFFF. This is like an Oniontalks. Pretentious, preachy, melodramatic, sulerficial, assinine, frivolous.
When he started with the politics just stfuuuuuu
47:42 why get political?
Biden will fix things yea ?
He really just went on a massive fucking rant. The white male comment was a little eye brow raising not to mention racist, but at that time stamp he almost loses his shit.
That was intense. Thanks.
Love his style and his voice
I had the same theory on an infinite universe when I was 13 years old. It doesn't take a particle physicist to conjure this idea up. This guy basically said things we've already known for many years for an hour.
I mean it does to show us the science behind it
Yeah that is his job. Theorizing about theories. If he was no human but a math calculation he would be 0x0.
And then he laid a guilt trip on all white males for being white males …. I’m surprised he didn’t use that as a segway to a lecture on white privilege.
Awesome lecture!!!!
This guy gives me the impression, of a traveling minstral, or story teller, going from village to village, telling fantastical tales, to entertain, and amaze, the children; and, hopefully, to conjer a free meal and bording, from the appreciative townspeople
Brilliant explanation - thank you....
Never touched the titled question. Glad I had it on double speed & jumped through it : False advertising.
Well done doc
