      The gravitational waves that have been detected are from two neutron stars merging. That's not what Steinhardt is talking about here. He's referring to primordial gravitational waves that originated during the inflation period.

      And the LIGO results have been refuted. The data is indistinguishable from the background noise. See Andrew Jackson from the Niels Bohr institute about it. So Paul Steinhard does have a point.

    I admire the creative people who are analyzing and sharing in absolute detail what they see from the data available at a given time frame. The human ego also gives them a hunch or feeling regarding the bigger picture that certain well known personalities push towards one agenda or another for many reasons, mostly Phd research papers and kudos for the history books. The problem is, the reality of the full picture that no one has the answer for yet is completely beyond human understanding. See what I did there.

      Often it is only a matter of filling in details. BECAUSE we demand proof, we do not often need to backtrack very far. There are MANY very stable and secure positions in science such as the shape of planets and evolution. I suspect the "big bang" may be more purely speculative and mathematical. We need not be scientists however to speak up for a scientific epistemology to always be respected else results cannot be relied upon ESPECIALLY when they come from thousands of years old tombs by unknown authors who state things we have already disproven.

      Established theories and experiments will NOT be proven wrong later on.
      They may become part of a bigger theory.
      For example, newton's law of gravity works wonders but einstein's theory of relativity later supercedes it. Einstein's theory, under certain conditions, simplifies down to become newton's law.

      No. Scientists use the word "theory" differently.from how a layman uses it. A theory is well supported by evidence, has been extensively tested, and has predictive power.
      What you have in mind is a HYPOTHESIS. It's different from theory.

    if you stack polarized tetrahedra into a particle in the e8 shape you would have a spherical particle with alternately charged facets. if these particles had no spin than I imagine that it would neither touch others like it nor push away but would seek a balance point(dark matter? graviton? electromagnetic field?). now if you crushed the particle all the others would try to fill the space(gravity). the wave-like movement by photons could be caused by the charge forcing them around these particles catching one side or the other. if you sectioned this particle then different pieces of it could make up the wide variety of subatomic particles? is this possible or is there something wrong with this way of thinking?

    All of this is based on the premise that the speed of light is constant. I was recently pondering a piece on the existence of a 4th dimension that serves to modify space and time by warping and twisting all 3 dimensions in space. Think of the implications. It produces the possibility that what we observe is simultaneously both near and far or that what we are observing is merely a shadow or projection.
    It begs the question: Can something be close and far at the same time?
    The answer is yes, depending on the length of the stick you're using to measure it. So it follows that the speed of light is only constant relative to the size of the space you're trying to measure. This is interesting because it explores an idea not unlike quantum physics. Is the object you're looking at close or is it far? How do you measure it if the thing you're measuring it with (the speed of light) is itself in direct proportion to the size of the space you're measuring?
    This begs the question of whether space itself is fluid. Einstein showed that mass bends space. We know that energy can alter space as well. We could theorize all day but it's an interesting thought experiment.

      This is not to say that professor Steinhardt does not have a strong point regarding the inflation model's lack of inherent constraints against being overly adaptable to accommodate new data as required to stay relevant; but that is a result of a lack of constraining empirical data and knowledge about the initial causal patch and the originating event for our own event horizon universe.

Long story, but my parents pulled me out of school before I had the chance to acquire any physics education. But in my spare time years later, I began analyzing motion once again to resolve the paradox, and did so by figuring out what the basic requirements were to make motion possible. I found the answer. Without knowing it at the time, I had also independently derived all of the Special Relativity(SR) mathematical equations, and I had also independently derived the Lorentz Transformation equations. However, the method in which I derived these equations, is a unique method that I have not seen in use nor have I seen it taught anywhere. Of course some folk thought that I was full of it, and so I put together some YT videos to expose my unique "How to" method, and thus prove them wrong.

    My biggest doubt with all of this is the fact that no theory seems to define what gravity really is. It's just a force that exists from volume and density combined which we've called "mass" which is the integral component of what makes the mathematics of quantum physics work the way we want it to. What creates this force of two bodies of mass? Does gravity create mass or does mass create gravity? And if they are finitely related then my other questions are how? and why? Can anyone explain this to a simpleton (like me)? If we can answer this, then perhaps they'll no longer be the need to explain negative mass when the traditional formulae no longer seemed to hold up.

      It has been a while since i studied it, so bare with me. Mass is determined not by gravity or volume, but an intrinsic feature of matter. How much energy is required to move something. They determine this by electron-volts. An electron-volt is the amount of energy required to move an electron across a field of potential difference of one volt.

    In few decades there might be new fresh ideas/hypothesis on this subject. It might be the case that human mind biologically is incapable ever understanding existence of universe. It is rather perplexing how can something just pop into existence out of nothing. Quantum physics suggest string theory and membrane interactions causing universes to simply appear. But then, how did these membranes come into existence in the first place. It all goes back to the same question; how can anything just pop into existence out of nothing. It simply makes not much sense, thus singularity. Simply no one knows the answer. Who knows, maybe our existence is just a grand illusion.

The answer is one in a Googleplex since they will take you to the American Airlines package terminal on the North edge of the airport, and by the time you get to the passenger terminal and through Airport Security, your flight will have already left, unless it has been delayed by 45 minutes or more, so I guess the odds are actually much better than 1 in a Googleplex, but I wanted to use that word to connect this to the lecture. Next time ask Google to take you to MIAD which stands for terminal D and is the street name of the departing flights road. In case you think Google will have fixed this by the time you need it, think again as it's been misleading people for at least 3 years and will also take you to the wrong place if you ask it to guide you to FLL (Fort Lauderdale International Airport). Also note, that if you use the desktop version of Google maps, it does not make these errors, only the mobile version, but who do you know hooks up their PC on the way to the airport?

    Being an actual scientist I imagine he's now, in 2019, glad that important verifiable observation has provided evidence supporting The Standard Model but since he was personally in an opposing field to some degree, I'm also sure he is at least a little miffed at the results from LIGO. It is the lifeblood of science to hypothesize falsifications any way we can imagine. It is just as useful in many cases to gain knowledge of the wrong path to help define the right path, but ultimately we must bend to observation and it must hurt at least a little bit to find you spent years exploring a dead end..

    My hypothesis that Dark Matter is not a weakly interactive massive particle (WIMP), but maybe is a deformation of space-time by which the curvature of space-time itself is the cause of the gravitational effect. Gravity is the consequence of the curvature of space-time when mass is present. It may be possible that the structure of space-time itself could be warped without the presence of mass. So, how did this warping occur? We believe this warping of space-time occurred during the extreme conditions present during inflation. Space-time has been shown to react like a fabric by warping, twisting, and propagating independent of mass. These properties have been proven with observations of gravitational lensing, frame dragging, and now gravitational waves. Fabrics can be stretched, pressured, and/or heated to the point of deformation. Such extreme conditions were all present during inflation, so it is plausible that space-time’s elastic nature could have hit its yield point and permanently deformed. Therefore, if gravity is the consequence of the warping of space-time, and fabrics can be permanently deformed, then a deformation could create a gravitational effect independent of mass. Thus, the unidentified dark "matter" that seems to be so elusive to modern science may not be matter at all but merely warped deformities causing gravitational effects. We have a prediction using gravitational lens mapping to prove Dark Matter isn’t a weakly interacting massive particle, but instead is a floating fixed pocket of warped geodesics in space-time geometry causing gravity wells.

      I think you are postulating that Einstein's field equation is incomplete. Good luck with that. The baked-in warping of spacetime that you take to be the explanation for so-called dark matter would presumably be detectable from its effects on the passage of starlight. Perhaps you can check if this would be possible to find experimentally.

    This is extremely deceptive language here. Einstein had a theory about gravitation, and his theory of gravitation lead him to an _opinion_ about how to best apply his theory to cosmology (it's common, even for equations that are completely valid, to admit "non-physical" solutions, and so judgement on this matter is fairly routine, but it's just opinion, until it runs up against an observations constraint _beyond_ what the equation originally solved). In the case of the big bounce, the force providing the bounce doesn't even need to be gravity. It could be some whole new force, leaving Einstein's theory of gravitation exactly right, and fully complete (as a theory of gravity). Cosmology, however, would need to add this new force as a new idea. But let's not make that Einstein's problem, because it isn't the problem he set out to solve.
