    The beauty of a Neil DeGrasse Tyson is no matter how ignorant you are, he will never make you feel like one. He is very respect of even the dumbest questions and he is always eager to answer them. The sign of a true great teacher.

      I like the way William Shatner explains things but he did mix up a galaxy and a solar system when he did a authoritative report on ancient aliens that had zero credibility ,status. In spite of the fact they have always been here it's part of the cover up idiot ufo dude. Tyson made a comment on Mahinjo Daro in India on Cosmos everyone was dressed as if they were African and they didn't have Indian features it was lame as hell not a mistake that Carl Sagan wouldn't have recognized This is something that happens when people go out of their field without any knowledge . Ive read his stuff he's very egotistical and degrading to all people that have seen an obviously not 21 st century vehicle in our sky's hes a terrible lame bigot about others minds and he hasn't the intelligent to prove he's greater than the child of the foremost scientist at Wright Patterson Air-force Base myself.I always thought highly of Tyson tell he called me a bigot and blocked me from twitter a big shallow hypocrite calling tout the black card to people that have studied prejudice and are anthropologists, Does anyone like this kind of hypocrite bigot, internationally when they get to know him??

      ​@@VG-rj8pn You're totally right. You spotted one of the mechanism of those sophists : control your mind and make you give up with your own capability of judgement. You indeed don't need him of anybody else to tell you what exist, or if your deductions were the most probable. The thing they don't understand is that we can feel instantly if we're facing a cloud or a solid shape, a natural phenomenon or a vehicle. They miss that, because as us, they don't have any explanation. But they love to rely on their dogmas, like "when you have no explanation, you should abandon your idea and submit to the certainty that you will explain it", wich is a double mistake : first because it's a deny of a cognitive process and natural logical reasoning based on historical problematics (religion VS science), and secondly because a spacecraft with humanoids inside IS NOT a problem in term of explanation capabilities. Wether we don't know the technology, we know for sure that life can evolve to the point of building vehicles, as we're the living proof ot that ! But no, that's too similar to the idea of god or angels or unicorn to those who just purely wants to mock religion. They make a mistake in mixing two different topics, but they don't care : they just want to win, blinded by the road tracks traced by their ancestors.
      That's a sick sad and pathetic neurotypical limitation, with no fucking sense of critic. How funny they think they are the more representative of what reasoning is !

      @@romaraingames3993 No bud. It's really simple. If you say you don't know what something is then you can't turn around and claim to know what it is. There is no "mechanism of sophists" here. Just the most basic logic. "I don't know what it is" means your claim ends right there. You saw something you can't explain. Trying to then say you know exactly what it was is a direct contradiction to saying you don't know what it is. Add to that the fact that eyewitness accounts are never 100% accurate and our senses also are not 100% accurate and these claims boil down to a whole lot of nothing. That's backed up by tons of peer-reviewed work. There is no debating the objective fact that witness accounts are not accurate and that our own senses filter the data that gets to our brain. What you think you can "feel instantly" about what you're looking at couldn't possibly be more meaningless.

      But that's the problem. They believe in it. Somebody's truth isn't really the objective truth always, but it is indeed their truth. Remember when people believed the Earth to be the center of the universe (ego-centricity and the flat earth believers(I'm so fucking amazed and depressed that there's so many people who still believe in that shit). Also, with a bunch of idiots or misinformants, and people who believe religious stories and texts to be actual events instead of stories with the purpose of helping people keep a morality. So, when we push them into a corner, they will defend it with everything, as for them it is their truth. So I personally believe that to such people, others too, we really should be kind and gentle when explaining or trying to debate this stuff, instead of straight up ridiculing them. Plus, the entire education system is at fault with this. We subconsciously and sometimes intentionally suppress a child's scientific curiosity at a young age, simply because of convenience. If someone with great scientific capacity is subjected to someone's belief and the entire community practically forces it upon them, that child will end up propagating the exact same forward his entire life. Dr. Tyson has had some interviews and stuff on the matter, I'd recommend watching. Thanks for reading this!

      Yes, you're right, but you have to consider the term "alien". Alien could mean something foreign, therefore a foreign flying object or spacecraft. In my opinion, the best way to describe something out of this planet when referring to the iconic "alien spacecraft", I'd prefer to say an "extraterrestrial object/spacecraft" when speaking to a conspirator. Even with a skeptic, if my statement is backed up with blatant evidence.

      The four points don't bound the square. If there was only those four points and the square contains water it would leak. The same way as the one dimensional lines at the edges of a cube wouldn't be able hold anything in the cube, you need the two dimensional squares at the outside of a cube to keep stuff in a cube. That is what being bounded means. It doesn't simply mean being on the boundary, it means completely containing the object.
      In my opinion he should of used circles, spheres and hyper spheres as an example instead of squares, cubes and hypercubes.

  • @Mr.Nichan
    @Mr.Nichan 4 года назад

    In thinking about time travel concepts for a worldbuilding project, I came up with the idea that certain multiverse explanations can either alleviate the problem of time-travellers coming from the future or make it so extreme that potentially infinite numbers of timetravelers might statistically be expected to be trying to every place and time at once and some kind of time-traveller pressure, either from how many can actually manage to do this or from how small a number a time-travellers a given universe can accomodate and still contain observers (i.e., the anthropic principle with the assumption that most universes are too overrun to be hospitible.)
    I think the key to alleviating the problem is to control the ratio between the number of places time-travellers could come from and the number of places they could go (including new timelines they could start by travelling back in time, as well as any timeline splitting or recombining caused by normal unpredictability, such as quantum uncertainty in our understanding of our universe). The infinite timetravellers problem comes from the notion that time travellers create new timelines (or time-branches, if quantum-like uncertainty exists) whenever they go backwards in time (or, in our universe/multiverse, faster than light). This creates a situation where there are probably many more universes created by timetravellers than not created by timetravellers. If each of those new timelines/timebranches ends up containing its own time travellers, then many more universes created by time travellers from a timeline containing time-travellers will exist than non-time-traveller created universes or ones created by time-travellers from such universes. This process could precede indefinitely or so far that some ridiculous phenomenon like time-traveller pressure or running out of physically possible universes stopped it. It seems likely that this would create a multiverse where, if you were to pick a random person out of the whole multiverse, they would almost certainly be surrounded by time-travellers. Tuning the laws of time so that the average rate of appearance of time-travellers from the future was a reasonably low number seems difficult, but I remember thinking that it might be possible.

Neil DeGrasse Tyson is a brilliant man who has a comedic side.

    A lot of the "abductions" are sleep paralysis. Sleep paralysis is a phenomenon in which an individual, either during falling asleep or awakening, briefly experiences an inability to move, speak, or react. It is a transitional state between wakefulness and sleep. It is often accompanied by terrifying hallucinations to which one is unable to react due to paralysis, and physical experiences (such as strong current running through the upper body). And yes I just copied that from wikipedia. Although to be fair, it's understandable that when someone that has no idea what sleep paralysis is had one and hallucinated an alien, would Interpret it as an abduction. Btw I had sleep paralysis a few times and its not nice.
