The Invisible Reality: The Wonderful Weirdness of the Quantum World
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 июн 2024
- Proposed a century ago to better explain the mind-bending behavior of the smallest constituents of the universe, quantum theory has implications far beyond the atom. This rich set of laws has applications both practical and extraordinary - from the technology that has revolutionized modern life to the possibility of parallel worlds.
Our audience joined Alan Alda as he accompanied Brian Greene, Nobel Laureate William Phillips and other leading thinkers at the vanguard of quantum research on an accessible multimedia exploration of the astounding weirdness of the quantum world.
This program is part of the Big Ideas Series, made possible with support from the John Templeton Foundation.
The World Science Festival gathers great minds in science and the arts to produce live and digital content that allows a broad general audience to engage with scientific discoveries. Our mission is to cultivate a general public informed by science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.

And god forbid you enrich yourself and your mind while doing so.
I love that the panel is so polite and accepting of each other's views. They're very passionate about their own theories and open to debate without needing to disprove the others. I'm looking forward to experiencing the reality where this approach is common place in politics, government, religion and any discussion with varying perspectives.
I love that you are interested in quantum mechanics.

Cause those others aren't scientist with a clear logical mind, and discuss with reasons. I'm despair with majority of humanity but hold out hope in science.
+Sherryayn Lingenfelter nice consideration. unfotunatley this type of approach can exist only when everybody has a common goal. love these videos.

+Kieser Sozay Indeed. Sadly, this may never occur, much less in our lifetime.
I wish we were able to openly discuss everything with this amount of DIVERSITY and discussion
Too dangerous. Could be misinformation!
Just binge-watching World Science Festival and almost burst my drink out of my nose in surprise when the "Throw of the Dice Dance Performance" came on. When did you y'all ever have interpretive dance performances? I'm flabbergasted and impressed and sad that I missed this point in history. I gotta binge watch more older episodes for more gems like these...
“Throw of the Dice Dance Performance” is an instant, prolonged classic! It’s actually a supplemental aspect that’s expertly executed with superb talent!
At this point I'm so hooked, I'm watching the videos from the Science Festival every evening. Absolutely wonderful, entertaining and endlessly fascinating 👏 Thank you Brian for starting this amazing festival and for sharing this with us!
Now my question is, why can't you entangle ANY atom? Why is he experimenting with specific ones which have specific properties? 🤔
After months of watching PBS spacetime videos, the algorithm sent me here. Does this mean I've leveled up or something?
Yep
Saaame 😂
Nope. But it might mean you need to
It means stop watching PBS...
Lol yes congrats 🎈
Robin Williams Lol ... I miss that guy. Always trying to lift everyone's spirits.
Brian Greene is simply the best. Such a great orator, and an excellent host for discussions. Any WSF with Brian as the host is top notch. I love falling asleep to these
I’m glad I’m not the only one that does this lol
Me too!
Agreed 🤝
If you're new to quantum mechanics, this is a GREAT video. I just listened to this for the second, maybe third, time. Not so much for new information, although I love how Brian Greene can bring it down to concrete examples for the lay person. Rather, I listened this time for the sheer pleasure of watching people with radically differing points of view handle a conversation with RESPECT and intelligence., without a single mean name-calling moment. What a breath of fresh air, eh?
On your advice, I'll give it a try.
Brian is the man he's great with breaking everything down

40:28 "But you know, even more satisfying is if something comes out different from the way everybody predicts, because it's so much more exciting, because you learn something new." Imagine if we all thought about "being wrong" this way!
It's easy when the "experiment" has no real life consequences on your life, the lives of your kids, or your community.
@@thersten , or harder?
No.
I used to carry my national lottery tickets for a long time before checking the numbers, from a quantum perspective there was always the possibility of being a winner until I checked the ticket.
@Coy Leigh well that depends upon your interpretation of what they have said, what I have written and quantum physics itself. On the other hand you might have taken my comment a bit too seriously, are you an American?
What about the others who collapsed the wave function earlier than you by checking and who won thus ruling you out? I think its more plausible that the wave function collapsed by interacting with the measuring apparatus. Otherwise if you never checked it then the world would be in limbo indefinitely. This also means there's nothing special about consciousness nor is it necessary for the world to work.
@@Joe-lb8qn true but seeing as you are all just figments of my imagination none of that really matters :)
I still do that when I buy lottery tickets 😂 I wait a week to check them (to keep the hope alive !)
But actually, the reality was the same for both scenarios, it's just that you wanted there to be some function of condition. Why can't we accept what we have when we have it all?
I see a lot of people against the dice dance... lol
I’m not a fan myself, but I love the fact it was endorsed and made a part of the show.
Haters can skip... big deal..🤷🏻♂️ but as a creative and loving person, I respect that it was added as a part of this awesome debate! Very mind opening, and all I can say is I believe there is simply energy! Be positive and the best possible outcome is due in it’s due time...🌈✨
Sending blessings and abundance to all in the year ahead!
May you find more smiles than you ever could expect!
Peace and love 💕
I love how Alan Alda leans in toward the panelists because he's focusing so hard! I just adore Alan Alda!
I think we can all agreed this was one of the most interesting and profound discussions about quantum mechanics😌👏👏👌👌
Surely is a great top ten introductory discussion on the quantum subject.

I've done some elaborate research on this double slit experiment.
I have never heard ANYONE talk about WHY they use 2 slits and what those slits represent.
The 2 slits are your eyes.
You are viewing light waves.
We each manufacture our own personal reality in our minds
Your opening claim that you have done much research on the double slit experiment is immediately contradicted by the rest of your post.
This is the kind of stuff that makes you feel so privileged to be alive!
I love learning so really enjoyed the video. Never acquired enough wealth for college but read every book I could get in hand and watch every lecture I can. Thank you.

the solution ~ change yourself: Picture a child you love very much at the age of 2 years old. Imagine this child before you and focus on the feelings of love you have for this child. Focus on your love for the child until it has expanded so much that you are smiling and feeling joy. After you have maintained this feeling for a few minutes, move this child to the side and place in front of you ~ yourself at the age of 2. Picture yourself now at the age of 2 and keep focusing on the feelings you built up for the first child ~ is not the second child as precious as the first? You are now loving yourself ~ stay with the feeling and expand it further ~ open your heart. Now that you know how to get into a feeling of love for yourself, you can change your age to focus on areas that may be more difficult for you to love yourself. Do this exercise daily and loving yourself will be become your natural response to yourself
Wow thank you! I really like that and will try it
😲😲😲
🤔🤔🤔
yes thank you I will try it to .
Its a proven concept of self suggestion, but that is psychology not quantum mechanics
Brian Greene is great.
He doesn't get in the way of the science the focus is where it should be on the material on the ideas not on himself.
This is one of the best discussions of its kind I've listened to. It touched on many of the most fascinating aspects of QM.
That's why I only listen to him. I want physics, not opinions on anything else.

When I saw Alan Alda was the host I said to myself "Oh no, he's gonna dumb this whole thing down", but I was very pleasantly surprised. He seems to be very well versed in science.
Views smart enough for greed = 0 science in physics reality counts.
Betz claim no other invention possible 100 years ago then you dont see 1 + 0 on left repeatedly brainwashing phyics
i felt he did a great job as host but sometimes it seemed like he was belittling some of the points they were trying to get it across. maybe just my perception
Did anyone happen to notice that after Alda's final question, Tegmark talked about 200 years in the future, Phillips talked about 50, Albert 100, and Greene "a few hundred" years?...as if the future is the same plus or minus a hundred years. Pretty ironic considering how much has radically changed in the world of physics in the past 100 years.
Very enlightening if a bit confusing. But science is never dull and I love learning about Quantum Physics. Fascinating!

What do you mean? Can you give an example of what you're talking about?
@@XL3BIGDrizzy The old term 'as above, so below' is an example. This topic pertains to the duality of a particle and an observer literally changes the result, so a philosophical approach is helpful to better understand what is counterintuitive. Although theory has evolved, I suggest reading 'The Tao of Physics'. If this seems an inadequate response, my apologies. Quantum theory is a journey, not to be summed up in a paragraph... thanks

-Translation by Holmyard, Eric J. 1923. "The Emerald Table" in: Nature, 122, pp. 525-526.
....that is part of a mythic story not an ancient explanation of quantum physics. People like to cherry pick the phrase out and make it into a thing without actually paying attention to the context. Context is important. I'm not bringing this up to start an argument I just wanted to make sure you actually understood where it originated from.
@Multiple People the Emerald Tablets are not part of the bible.
Have not seen Alan Alda in a long time. Good to see he is still active.
Thank God for Quantum Mechanics!!! Life would be so boring without it !
Saabireen Syeed If Mohammed was alive he would have you beheaded you sound crazier than a shithouse rat trying to link science with your crazy religion
Not the full answer Hmmm Nuts and Bolts - but the bitch and all like him can never explain the Human consiousness and the experience in out time domain..... yet they teach kids in the class room they are nothing but slime molds that came from rocks by way of mathematical probibilities that are beyond the numer of atoms in the universe - LOLOLOL
The interpretation of nature and of reality is best described by Thomas Carlyle. In his essay on Hero and Hero worship. When writing on Muhammad he was intrigued by how much the Quran the holy book of Muslims emphasize the signs in nature and the Divine. However the mention of miracles unnerved the modern scientific world. Where one has to delve by the laws of mystics and mysticism. To transcend even the revelation and construct a direct communication with the creator. Sounds like a myth, go ahead research your self the lives of many Christians who wanted to teach Arabic or Persian at Oxford University and Cambridge University and turned Muslim. Start with A. J ARBERRY. and the French Rene Guenon and take ten years to find that while dolphins can use sonar so can humans a perfected heart free to call God. Or else read Dr Lothar and his Infinite potential to be able to see how this Quantum chemist is interpreting the virtual states of atoms and molecules. God bless all who have not been brain washed by Science.
Quantum mechanics and quantum physics does not disprove there is a God perhaps science and YOUR Persoanl perception of God is crazy, the person above does not say anything about God within a particular "religion". "Religion" is man-made, however to have a "relationship" a connection with our creator should be sought after. Look around your world, the room you sit in right now, the chair you sit in. Is there anything in that space that you "see" with your physical eyes that was not "Created" by invention from first a thought or idea within anothers imagination?
Everything in our world we live in has a "Creator" "Inventor" then brought the idea from imagination forth...so now you have that chair your sitting on. "Everything" has a Creator. God [intelligence within infinity in motion] created us in whatever way that took place [not within our scope of full understanding it all. I do know and understand Religion was invented of mankind's small imaginations on how to fullfill their "agendas" to bring forth much destruction of whats true. Its a MUCH BIGGER picture! So with that being said, which comment sounds crazier yours? Or Sabreen's?
What?
Brian Greene is an excellent speaker, and most of his points and analogies were very good. However, he said two things that were simply incorrect:
(1) Greene said that de Broglie introduced the concept of probability into quantum mechanics. Wrong! The probability business came from Max Born. What de Broglie did was reason that since light, known to be a wave, was displaying particle properties, that perhaps particles like electrons could be made to display wave properties. The clincher was that a precisely integer number of his electron wavelengths fitted into each electron orbit of the Bohr model. He never said that his particle-waves were probability waves.
(2) Greene said that Einstein made arguments about spin correlations in the famous EPR paper. Wrong! The second part of the EPR paper dealt with position-momentum complementarity in a two particle system, in which one could arrange for both particles to have large momentum uncertainties, and yet the overall momentum of the system might be required to have a specific value. The business of introducing electron spin and photon polarization into EPR experiments came more than 40 years later from David Bohm and John Bell.
I'm not sure how these mistakes crept in, but to me as a physicist they sullied an otherwise very good presentation.
John G. Cramer I was also surprised that he didn't credit JS Bell's 1964 paper for connecting spin measurements on pairs of entangled electrons to the EPR paradox.
John G. Cramer Did you forget about 2?
+John G. Cramer Apart from crediting Einstein for Bell's theorem and de Broglie for Born's statistical interpretation of the wave function, Greene also states that the greatest entanglement distance was 11 km. However, over a year before this program's original date (May 2008), two photons were entangled ~144 km apart between La Palma and Tenerife in the Canary Islands. I know he's a string theorist and not a QM physicist, but neither am I, and by any standard these major factual oversights are not ok!
+John G. Cramer Thanks a lot for your remarks John : )
+John G. Cramer So maybe you can clarify something that got me stuck. Probabilities are not negative so this concept of a wave that disrupts a surface by going above and below in the same amplitude only works at first for me if the initial level is 0.5, and max 1, min 0.... otherwise, the waves can only go up the level but never down...
The problem I with this is... probability waves can never cancel out... so while I can get that there is an intuitive relationship between intensity of the bands and the probability of an electron to hit that area, it does not really explain what is the propagation medium of the wave made of (as in the water wave, the medium is H2O)...
what if the propagation medium is in another undetected dimension that acts very much deterministically, but because we are not detecting it we just assume that the beamed electrons will behave with some uncertainty and will hit the target on a position with a certain probability? In that case, wouldn't this probabilistic model of quantum physics be giving up on the true explanation of the real phenomenon that is happening?
What a privilege it is to listen in to these guys talk.
This guy is a real genius, I am saying this because people like him, don't just understan what they are taking about, his real genius is his ability to allow all of us to understand it to. THANKS 👍💓 from WALE'S.

I was very impressed with Alan Alda's hosting of this program! There were several times when the discussion could have gone downhill where his interjections really kept things moving forward.
I enjoyed Mr. Alda's hosting of Nova Science Now, but I think that his involvement in this panel better shows what he's capable of as an engaged presenter and interested observer of the scientific community.
Truly an example of an informed host participating and facilitating a discussion rather than just introducing the next speaker.
Kudos, sir!!!
Excellent observation and as I would add, many other hosts should learn from Alda's talent. This is proof that if one doesn't have Al Alda's talent in this field [and obviously his intellect + experience] one needs to prepare for such event previa, before thinking it's a matter of just asking questions. This shows how very NOT easy it is to host and shine while at the same time keeping the audience inerested, engaged and awake. Again, great observation brother!
Brian Greene talked about repulsive gravity on cbc it was very interesting, I hope to hear him again on the subject.
Brian Greene is the true legacy of Carl Sagan. Science communicator with no arrogance.

@Mahendran Completely agree with you.
16:46 (beginning of it) When you're not looking at it, you don't know where it is. But when you look at it, here it comes. Basically, your intention through your thoughts is actually gathering that energy to your place of focus. It is one of the misunderstood concepts of energy channeling
*What if the hidden variables are not in the two entangled particles, but in the point of space where they separate??*
I was think more along the lines of what these electrons are doing. Are they all spinning the same on launch, at what point of their wave do they start.
Can we manipulate the wave frequency somehow?
Is it a spiral rather than a wave?
Is there outside influences such as how space has an energy value, there is no such thing as zero energy…
Many straws to grasp at there.
Love Brian Greene. He explains things in a way that even the most unaware can understand.
I still don't get it 😆
Entanglement. David: "if this thing here has a property by itself before I measure it is wrong". Tibetan Buddhism: "Nothing exists by itself in itself. Things exist by me naming them". The same thing actually, wow :)

Excellent discussion! Thank you for posting this! 😎👍💥
It occurred to me today that the fundamental nature of reality is that it provides measurable data that can be described by mathematics to a high degree of accuracy, and to make predictions that can be verified to a high degree of accuracy.
I must also add that the fundamental nature of language is that it requires interpretation. What matters is what you do with your interpretation.
The physicist tells the pessimist there is only various frequency of energy and the pessimist responds, "It's like I always say, nothing matters"

We are and have been military has looking glasses. And they were back engineered from actual started. CUE TEAM USES A.I. QUANTUM SPEED OF LIGHT COMPUTERS FOUR OF THEM. Tesla.showed that a time line electromagnetism charged both ends of a timeline the. Entanglement would elongate enough to see or walk to point two from one. CUE TEAM USES these computers to see the MOST PROBABLE TIMELINE (90\10, 80\20, AND SO ON 70\30). THIS IS HOW THE THIRD WORLD WAR IS BEING FOUGHT CYBERNETICALLY.
“The probability wave… is that a real thing or a mathematical construct?” “Uh, w-well, um…” I can imagine how difficult it can be for scientists deep into the limits of human knowledge to answer basic questions in a basic way regular people can understand.
Great video, except for the dancing
i "got" that too :(
sad choreographs but good job on it
I thought it was interesting as it was representing the randomness of electrons and I don't care for the arts. I mean yes it was random and crazy but I think that was the point.
Well, it’s kinda build to a scientific view that “ god don’t play dice with the universe”.So yeah, as of science can be boring sometimes.
the probability dancing was going to happen was low but, it was there and it happened.
I love these. Makes people think. Like I say all points have a correct answer until we expand further into detail.
If the electrons make a wave by getting shot through a slit. What happens when there is no screen? What happens is the screen is a circle? Would that mean that the an outside force is what determines the probability.
As well as the person that said “we clone you yet you are in two places” in that case both know that they are indeed where they are because they OBSERVE where they are. They have the same memories but different observable places.
Schrodingers cat shows that we do not know anything until we OBSERVE IT. But then we have things that happen whether you observe them or not.
On the day that we can create an instrument that can measure PROPERLY to the most exact decimal is the day that we, as a society, Will conquer quantum mechanics. Every time we find a way to measure to the last decimal and exact measurement. We learn so much more.

Just shut up and calculate principal ~ I fell backward 😂😂
Discussion starts at 23:00
Different thinkers reactions/viewpoints , different results , but the probability are great , filling the gap , it’s infinite .QUantum mechanics proved that the World is so strange ,same way we are all peculiar in different way ..
Apple , pears , mango came out differently from different observers etc ..but it’s good to be weird sometimes in a good way /clear conscience .
What I love about this, is that quantum mechanics, physics, applies to everything even societal behavior. This is a possibility to me, that the probability and law of attraction go hand in hand and that polarization is inevitable. Society can not be tricked into a United mindset. I think we physically and behaviorally mirror the behavior of quantum world around us with a difference in form and size. Even in a world of variabilities, a pattern or behavior is inevitable and desires to not be alone. Even from a spiritual perspective, quantum mechanics apply. Our understanding of both are incomplete and imperfect but those who have a sound understanding of both recognize that spiritual understanding and behaviors as we know them are basics or infantile but teaches profound quantum curriculum. We don’t understand the quantum world because we refuse to recognize it in human behavior, or recognize it in basic spiritual teachings.
In retrospect, traumatic events would probably put you at an outlier. Speaking of outliers, how do you think we can access those spots where human behavior can’t reach, kind of like the blank spots in the first diagram he showed.
This Brian Greene is an awesome speaker.
He is also a good actor!

If this is built on probability, then it’s probably wrong.
From the average dude, who did not believe in god, sure
Play dice is particles free will, einstein wasnt the wisest, or the smartest.
Omg! Dying over Brian's spooky "Steve Martin-esque" thumbs up and down segment🤣
It's been a while but I *think* Einstein discovered that the Planck constant worked on light as well as electrons. My thought is that electrons themselves are waves. The electrons are probably only perceptible when in a state of superposition. I'm not so sure about the multiple probabilities theory. I think it's possible that one electron is actually something that takes up a lot more area, perhaps even slipping through objects. I think because we probably only detect the electron because of its state of superposition, we don't see that the whole entire area is given a value. The next electron is sent and it adds its value to the value cast by the previous one. Once the process is complete, you should get something resembling an interference pattern. I think the consistency of the Max Planck constant being used in both electron and photon movement hints to me that everything consists of waves.
Wow, i think this is the best talk I've ever seen from this channel. I love this conversation!
@Pam Martin
Yes, I wish they'd leave that sort of cack out of it. Like that string quartet they had in the string theory one.
{:-:-:}
Very interesting program. At first, I listen very closely to each of speakers. Later on, I hear only one voice of science knowledge and reality. Because I put all my thoughts of understanding, and all talking into my own space as vegetables soup of theories and reality. I am getting back to my reality with my vegetables soup. LOL
Perhaps you should try alphabet soup... 🤷🤔
I totally feel the same way !!! Beautiful discussion.
The best thing about this video is that, they all are a bunch of probabalistic atoms dicussing about their own nature in definite reality.
Absolutely super conversation, without much details but sometimes quite good.
Two interpretations for the single particle creating a wave pattern; 1, the particle has a wave like property and 2, the direction the particle travels in is constrained in some wave like manner. Note; these directions or dimensions could be virtual.
My guess would be that reality is emergent and these particles are virtual along with the dimensions, including the time dimension. The idea would be that the macro world in being constructed by the micro world. The constraint is fractal in nature.
Truth as a time coordinate; truth lives in the past, the future is uncertain.
Truth as a scale coordinate; truth lives in the macro world, the micro world is uncertain.
Truth lives in the macro past and uncertainty lives in the micro future.
The inside of a seed is larger than the outside of the seed. Inside of the seed is an entire forest. No matter how much information we use to describe a tree, it will always be incomplete. The only complete description of the tree is the tree itself.
This whole conversation sounds like a bunch of brilliant people trying to muster up the courage to drink some ayahuasca.
I know EXACTLY what you mean!
Totally.
I drank it.. ha.
I’m trying to muster up the courage to drink it. What can I expect if I do?
I think, what is missing with quantum computing is the HOW they can put their calculations in between Zero and One. I think, Zero and One can be considered as positions and not as properties.
The best explanation for the first 20:00 of this video is we are in a simulation and it renders when you look at it . And then is transferred back to virtual memory ..
No electrons were harmed during the making of this video .

Aaaaaaargh you kidding me?! You owe me a brain. Mine ran off halfway through
Thanks, keep the work going...
There are unanswered questions here. For instance, are the electrons in the first illustrations traveling in a ABSOLUTE vacuum? This would be important because the initial electron that was fired at the screen would be effected by EVERY other electron between the firing point and the screen. Why act as if there were Nothing between the two. And each atom would effect the travel path and cause deviations to what should have been a straight line between firing point and impact position. Think of a Pinball machine and how the ball bounces of of the posts as it travels across the board. Wouldn't these tiny electrons be much more susceptible to "bouncing around" or at a minimum "swerving" due to polarity differences or tiny charge differences between itself and those it was passing ?
Think about it. This would even work when you look at it with light because light itself and electrons both act experimentally and mathematically as if they were both a wave and a particle .
My same exact thoughts! I wish this was discussed.
David Albert sounds alot like Terrance McKenna in my opinion
Perhaps it’s more of a spiral than a wave.
Looking at a spiral from the edge, you still get the troughs and peaks, but not just up and down, but from all angles looking at 90 degrees from line of travel.
You are on to something interesting. Sound vibration frequency control all. Who is generating the sound to create all into physical reality? And then there is the hidden invisible layer which is the unseen spiritual realm that is pure energy who is everywhere and nowhere to be found at the same time.
God The Father The Creator King of Kings Christ Divine Holy Spirit which dwells in all natural born biological human beings.
Maybe ?!
Maybe Tolkien was right all along with his creation story.
Maybe it’s about time we begin to ask: "What, if anything, changes in the space those electrons travel trough?«
We may need to formulate some viable theory about this, if we’re going to some day understand entanglement imo…
I remember reading a book in the mid 70s about remote viewing. It was determined to be scientific fact. A good part of the book explained how much more was required of this to be accepted as fact than 2 slits, for example. They did double blind, and that's not good enough, so it went to hextuple, octuple, dozens of levels of blind testing. 100s of thousands of repeated tests in thousands of universities all over America. The CIA has been hiring remote viewers since the 50s and have found some really good talents. It's a skill, but it seems everyone has some accuracy. But the declassified documents....yeah, the CIA has released teams of material from UFOs to ESP and alien races. Anyway, I think physics should be exploring the phenomenon that are actually interesting. 2 slits...Jesus Christ. MOVE ON. The rest of the community is experiencing plants, yes, houseplants, that are affecting random number generators that turn different lights on. The lights end up being controlled probabilistically by the plant's need for light. The plant is in one corner of a square room. The light and it's duration are controlled by the random number generator only. But the result is that over time, the plant gets more and more light-time than the probability would produce, more that 25%. If physicists studied this, it would be interesting. If they studied the fact that psychic events are instantaneous. By this I mean, this experiment by the Russians back in the 60s, the mother rabbit was on the surface of the earth, in her habitat. Her children were in a submarine on the other side of the planet and down a thousand feet under the surface. Their clocks were synchronized and we're the highest accuracy if the time, because they were asking "Is this effect happening--- this information travelling, faster than light? They killed a rabbit's offspring and her response was immediate. They tried again. No delay could be measured. And again. Yeah, they were cruel jerks. The results indicated that psychic information has no measurable speed limit. We have better clocks now. I'm not suggesting....well? ANYWAY, study this. The head of skunk works in Area 51 held a conference and ended it with a photo of a saucer and he said "we can now take ET home." This guy chases him down and asked him how that's possible. Everyone else laughed. He said, "How does ESP (remote viewing) work?", this guy answers, "Um, all points in space and time are connected?" He replied, "That's exactly how it works." Ok, a bit vague. But how does it work? It's up to you physicists to determine how it works and how to take advantage of this mechanism in some demonstrable way and hopefully make it useful too. Or hand it off to Engineering for the latter. Spooky? No, this is normal. Quantum entanglement? That's been shown over 60 years ago. What's beyond that? Make machines that compute instantaneously or travel infinitely far instantly. Is dematerialization necessary? If it has life on board, we often need to make concessions for people staying alive. They're doing this in black budget programs, so figure out what they're already doing. THAT'S INTERESTING.
The weak, the lazy are always drawn to tales of magic, miracle
Real life teaches us that we must work hard, if we want something we have to EARN it
But the weak, lazy have no stomach for that - just say abracadabra and get things done! yay!
The coward wants a magic sword that makes him invincible, or the magic cloak that makes him invisible - anything as long as there is no possibility of him getting hurt
That is why religious stories are filled with tales of magic, miracle - appeal to the worst of humankind
Very interesting ! Thank you ! Amazing and real are these connections , especially person to person -psychic energy exists as everything is energy -
Really, really like your comment. I recently watched the documentary “Third Eye Spies”, the story behind the Remote Viewing program you mentioned. Indeed, 100% real, yet the powers that be were offended that the PhDs/MDs running the quantifiable tests could not “explain” how it worked. One of the most noteworthy was involved with the invention of the laser. To this day, Wikipedia will not list him for his achievements in laser technology. Only that he was involved in some “ESP” thing- as if intending to disparage his reputation. The world indeed is a strange place. Perhaps a very few with way too much power or control- selfishly attempting to dumb us down, trick us into forgetting that we do have a sixth sense, as natural as breathing. That there is a consciousness that is universal and it absolutely can be tapped into. I hope someday we can be free of such people and negative influences. If the head of Lockheed Martin /Skunkworks said what he did, and it is documented, we really need to rethink a whole lot about the nature of reality and physics. Seems to me narrow mindedness is the antithesis of true science.
@@ramaraksha01 Remote viewing is not easy. To be a professional requires a lot more hard work than your, let me guess, Business degree. Remote viewing has been absolutely key to so many CIA operations over the years, I recommend you try it. I had a personal experience be I'll be share. I be was learning how to meditate in the yogananda tradition. I had this vision of my grandmother being in a dire emergency. I took myself out of that state of mind and told myself over and over and this is through I've got to go to my father and tell him to call my grandma. I must have gone back into meditation again but I want straight to my dad's house I asked him to call my grandma and he asked me if I had any reason why he should call her. long story short he didn't call I couldn't tell him why. I'm like you what was I supposed to say I had this vision of your mother being in critical shape and she needs to be found? That's as convincing as the average ___ fill in the blank. I felt really uneasy about the way that ended but two days later we got a call and that that night before I meditated that day the next morning she had a stroke she was on the ground for 4 days. thankfully she had a close friend how to have it coming over every couple of days and she got real concerned when she couldn't catch her on the phone or even in at the house he couldn't raise you bring the doorbell and nobody came she had to get well I forgot who she had to get to get open the house but there she was on the floor. I SAW THAT. My own lack of confidence got in the way. If my dad didn't bark at me when he asked why he should call his mother, she might not have come out so crippled. And it must have been very traumatic to not be able to move for 4 days on the floor. I've been to the hospital and I had no way of contacting my doctor's so I could get them to give me my medications. But I concentrated and I visualized my cell phone and read the phone number from the phone screen. Look, I just look up the name and push the button. I don't look at the number and it wouldn't do me any good to do so anyway. But I did get the correct number on the first try, they asked where I was and hung up. Nothing came of it but their staff AND THE doctor we're all pretty useless. Good grief. But I forgot the number almost immediately. If I had a pen and paper...but I didn't. I only knew the number because I was in an altered state. In Norma states of mind, the info vanishes. That's common. I bet it takes practice. ANOTHER example. The first time I ever visited this guy near my farm, I saw this dog barking, first at me, then just to the house. (there were the daughters inside but they didn't know me so...) Anyway, I thought to myself "that's a really sweet dog. I got on my knees and got into a state of mind. I remember thinking as if I'm telling her I'm no harm. I just want to make sure you're ok, and I want to be friends. Well, I'm not sure about that second sentence. Anyway I I found myself getting up and I walked straight over, not looking at her. When I was far enough, I don't know how I knew where that was. I kneeled again. I closed my eyes again and told her something. It's hazy. But she came to me and put her head in my hands, like she wanted me to see the side of her face. There were flies running around under the fur. It took me out to normal consciousness because it was shocking. I told myself to not show and alarm etc. That moment is the only reason I remembered this later. I had lunch with them because my brother and I were going to help them. I asked about the dog. They said she was Jan. I said I petted her and they laughed and said "Well, that's gonna be your last time, THAT'S FOR DANG SURE !!!" I had no idea what there talking about. They told me she had been abused before. Even little girls couldn't pet her. I told them I've petted her every time, but it was only about 3 times, so that's not anything. They asked me to demonstrate. I just petted her head. I could hear their LOUD THOUGHTS AND EXPECTATIONS. How could I show them in such a noise. Besides, by then, I had completely forgotten that there were all those steps. I didn't remember any if it for a long time and then a year later I remembered the flies, when I was startled into normal consciousness. Then I pieces together the main steps that I took. I've never had a dog. I'm a cat person. I don't know people with dogs. How'd I know to do all that? How'd I know where to stop walking toward her. I'd think she would have run off. I can't explain a lot. But I know I was in communication with Jan the dog. She told me. Not a lot of information, ok? If you were to think about it after the fact, of course. Facing her and bowing. I forgot to mention that. Anyway, I'm showing that I'm in her paws. I won't do anything she doesn't want. When I sat up with my eyes closed, it gave her a chance to see me with my feet unable to kick her, my hands can't reach much further my knees. I'm not gonna be chasing her. Walking towards her was just weird. I'm a stranger and her job is to protect everything from people like me. So why would I even try to approach her. I think she had time to check me out at a distance. Then closer, I was the same. I couldn't kick he and my hands couldn't come down on her, but more than that, I wouldn't. I, oops I remember something else. I said "come" with my hands stretched out and she immediately came close and put her head in my hands. I felt bad because, since it was in another state of mind, I didn't tell them how to relate to her and because she needed a good fly collar. That's got to be really annoying to have flies, those big swear flies, running around under the curl of her hair like pipelines of flies. Ick. I'm sure she'd like a bath too, but on the farm, she'll get dusty again in a flash. I was watching a show on snakes. They said some things that corresponded to what I did. By being on her level, I gained trust. My hands were lower than her head at all times, when extended. The rest is different. Could all I did be a coincidence? When he owners who have fed her and taken care of her for years cannot pet her or touch her, but me, a total stranger followed directions from somewhere.
I used to design machines. I've had times where I'd dream about something I did wrong. I'd find that it was completely true the next morning. I've used visualization to design machines that haven't been built before. That's similar to remote viewing in that it was the working version of the future that I'd find and design. All but 1 were built and shipped without my even seeing it run before it shipped out. In other words, it worked perfectly and all the drawings must have been good too. I got a patent for something not done before. Well, remote viewing. I lost my wallet in Lake Texhoma. It's an enormous lake. I just got my wallet was in my swim trunks. Oh no. I found it. My nickname was Eagle eye. I didn't matter what it was or where, I'd usually walk straight for it. It's harder for me to find my own things. But I always find myself griping about something in my head (taking my mind off it), and I find that my arm is all the way down a pile of something, and there it is. I couldn't remember how it got there. I mean, Eventually, I'd figure it out. It's just so uncanny. A girl lost her laundry card. She said she walked in this large field adjacent to her. I tried hard to let me help. I found it. She asked if I was gonna go? "just like that"? I thought of all her excuses for my not coming over. and I tried so hard to "just let me find your card and I'm not asking for anything. I really didn't feel like wasting her time if she had all those other plans, you know?. Look, I don't understand girls. Let me know what you think. Was she wanting me to stay? Have some water? Have something else? I don't know. I don't know girls. But there's really something going on with remote viewing, or else the CIA wouldn't be employing them for the past 60 or 70 years. There's a great show on Netflix or Prime about remote viewing. It's a fact that there's something there to use to our benefit. OH YEAH, a medicine man, (long story), was taking to a group of people and he was saying that they could communicate with other tribes. They could see other places on Earth. His description struck me as odd at the time. He put his head between his knees and he covered his eyes with his palms like his hands were like lenses, but he said you see with your heart, you can see what people are doing anywhere. Later I found that to be a big help. You've got to still your mind, and that's hard. You've got to still your heart. It's your heart that has the telescope, as it were. So if you have control over yourself, there's nothing you can't know about things in the material world but he said you shouldn't go into the , I can't remember what he called it but it's the afterlife. That's something dangerous. It takes a lot of work to connect with the dead or spirits, (he's taking about the astral plane). Anyway, I never tried that. But I learned to do Reiki and became a low level master. When I taught, I always said that while giving a treatment, you'll gain a lot of how-to knowledge and information sometimes about what's going on with the recipient. I started by just meditating. But I tried focusing on my heart one day and visuals just opened up. I don't understand why it works that way but it makes some sense. Anyway, go ahead. You've got to work to get results. We already have had to concentrate and visualize, draw. So you may be a natural. In that case it's not very hard. Try it with a friend or 2.

Scientific performance dance to bad jazz. Wow. Did not see that coming.
+Michael Privat It was always there ;)
This video might be too old, but I have a question, have they tried the experiment with molecules, for example, hydrogen, since it has a nucleus I think the result would be different and not as unpredictable as the electron by itself.
Since the higgs boson particle is absent in the electron but most probably present in the nucleus, of molecules, creating consistency.... our bodies don't act as the electron in the experiment because we are made of molecules with lots of nucleuses and therefore plenty of higgs boson particles that keeps us stable....or what would you think? :)
I love this!!! This discussion is so exhilarating!!!!

11:47 - "If the electron is a wave, a wave of WHAT? What is doing the waving?"
How ironic that Greene actually credits the physicist (DeBroglie) who was the first to solve this puzzle, while studiously avoiding mention of the solution: Pilot Wave theory. And it's not just Greene, virtually all QM popularizers go to similar lengths to obfuscate the mathematical models that unambiguously predict QM behavior with mystifying tales of so-called wave/particle paradoxes. What they avoid telling you is this: The movements of real-world particles in 3D space are guided by positional probability waves that interact to produce interference patterns. The waves interfere because they are combined within a complex-valued abstract mathematical space rather than in real-world 3D space. This is just a mathematical model that physicists have crafted to produce highly accurate predictions of probabalistic particle movements - not an actual netherworld where spooky QM events occur. Once you understand how complex-valued math works (i.e. high school algebra), QM makes intuitive sense. It's just that you never directly observe the QM mechanisms in the real world - all you see is the effects they have on the movements of particles.
I’m just seeing this tonight and can’t help but think about the matter being fired reflecting off the edges of the solid object with the slits, possibly causing the matter being fired to change direction. And the weight of the matter and the speed it’s being fired at keeps popping up as something I think about also.
Thoroughly enjoyed this! Wish it was longer but thank you for sharing it with the world!
When someone loves you, the way they talk about you is different. You feel safe and comfortable.
Love is our experience of the abstraction of quantum mechanics; that and psychedelics
I was actually thinking the same thing about flirtation and the gray fuzzy areas associated with the act of flirting. Is that abstraction the thing we are attracted to when we are looking for a mate? A sort of quantum adaptivity so to speak?
Holding my original comment and making this one, I love science; Perhaps science feels safe with me.
The way this dude talks makes me feel loved
That is different dimension of comfort, i should tell you...! It is unspeakable.
Imagine had A. Einstein publicly opined, "It may appear dicey and spooky to us but obviously, in the reality of any situation the Creator knows how to drive these quantum things."
I will suggest another possibility regarding the wave behavior of the electron. It will simpler if you accept that the universe tissue (space-time) fluctuates at a such low energy level that affects only subatomic particles. So these particles are driven by these fluctuations to specific places.
One of the guys sounds so much like Terence McKenna is weird.
Thank you for the introduction to Quantum World. The question which I have is : How did this presentation evolve? In other words, prior to the labelling of this topic as "Quantum", to what extent did the natural world present this characteristic, these characteristics? It does not make any sense to talk about Quantum outside of an experimental context because in an experiment the conditions are defined for the purpose of the experiment and do not correspond to natural circumstances. It is all well and good to build a Quantum system for analysis or for calculating quantities. But this does not necessarily reach a valid conclusion. Anyone who watches this Quantum World will need to have answers to fundamental questions. Alternately a new or different approach must emerge in the future.
Totally agree. Sadly few - especially among these "great minds" here themselves - seem to even stop a second to think about things that way.
But how did Einstein do the experiment back then ?did they have phone?
