- What do you wish you had learned in school? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Chuck Nice go back to school to answer questions about simulation theory, time dilation, white holes, the sound of space, and more!
What happens after you die? Where does oil come from? We answer fan questions from the Internet about what they wish they had learned in school. Explore the carboniferous era, why trees need microbes, and what we know about death. Are we living in a simulation?
What sound does space make? We explain the sound of silence, how old our sun is, and time dilation. We cover an essential question: do we live on Earth or do we live in Earth? Neil settles the debate once and for all. Could time travel exist? We go over different paradoxes and the trouble with doubling back on your own worldline.
In a nutshell: what is quantum physics? Why is your reflection opposite in a mirror? How does nuclear energy work? Hear Neil explain it both quickly and well. What is a white hole? Are there stars that don’t have galaxies? Or planets that don’t have stars? Could it be possible that the Big Bang occurs on a regular basis? All that and more on another cosmic queries episode!

What's your favorite subject to learn?
Dark matter and Dark Energy
Everything! My tastes are so eclectic the YT algorithm has no idea what to feed me next!
Evolutionary biology. It is fun to scratch our heads about the origins of strange and complex structures, and wild phenomena like bioluminescence
Geology I say
@@rickkwitkoski1976 best answer ive heard
Chuck said something very important early in the video. He said we are learning all our lives whether we want to or not. He added that some people learn the easy way (by educating themselves and reducing their own ignorance), some people learn the hard way. So true.
Chuck-a-baby aka Lord Chuck is deep
Balancing the Equation, unlearning is life-long too.
Nice comment bro
If only that were universally true... You have to look no further than some of the "gatherings" for examples of people who never will... While insisting the entire time that they are
Noone learns anything from doing it right. You either win or learn as we say in racing.
You might not know this, but a Cambodian is enjoying learning from your every video. Thank you, Neil and Chuck.
The internet connects use all
Chuck reminds me of donkey from shrek
We're so glad to hear this! Greetings :)
Chuck is invaluable to these episodes. About the time my brain gets in a knot from trying to understand difficult concepts, Lord Nice makes me laugh and relax so I can continue learning. Love you both!
I dont get it
How we live IN EARTH instead of on earth
That explanation made no sense to me
Albeit. I'm NOT calling ANY MAN LORD!
And Chuck is quite smart. He understands what Niell is saying well enough to restate things so the unwashed masses can understand them.
Neil & Chuck should never stop doing this.
Great pair.
i agree
I agree
Agreed!

@@StarTalk The ultimate mathematical unification (AND UNDERSTANDING) of physics/physical experience combines, BALANCES, AND includes opposites. The BALANCE of what is gravity WITH what is inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE requires and involves TIME AND time dilation ON/IN BALANCE, AS gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites (ON BALANCE); AS this CLEARLY explains the fourth dimension; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is CLEARLY AND NECESSARILY proven to be gravity (ON/IN BALANCE); AS TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual ON/IN BALANCE. INSTANTaneity is fundamental to what are TIME AND time dilation ON/IN BALANCE. Accordingly, ON BALANCE, INSTANTaneity is fundamental to what is the FULL and proper understanding of physics/physical experience; AS the extension of what is SPACE is CLEARLY (AND NECESSARILY) electromagnetic/gravitational ON/IN BALANCE.
What is GRAVITY IS, ON BALANCE, an INTERACTION that cannot be shielded or blocked. What is E=MC is taken directly from F=ma, AS the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON matches the revolution; AS the stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. Great. INDEED, c squared CLEARLY AND NECESSARILY represents a dimension of SPACE ON BALANCE. ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is CLEARLY AND NECESSARILY proven to be gravity (ON/IN BALANCE), AS TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual ON/IN BALANCE. “Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent WITH/AS what is BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE (ON BALANCE). A given PLANET (including what is THE EARTH) sweeps out equal area in equal TIME. Great. What is E=MC is taken directly from F=ma. Consider TIME AND time dilation ON/IN BALANCE. INDEED, consider what is THE EYE ON BALANCE !!! Notice WHAT IS the fully illuminated AND setting/WHITE MOON ON BALANCE !!! NOW, consider what is the TRANSLUCENT AND BLUE sky ON BALANCE !!! So, consider what is the orange AND setting Sun ON BALANCE. ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is CLEARLY AND NECESSARILY proven to be gravity (ON/IN BALANCE), AS TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual ON/IN BALANCE. Inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE is proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) what is GRAVITATIONAL force/ENERGY, AS the extension of what is SPACE is CLEARLY (AND NECESSARILY) electromagnetic/gravitational ON/IN BALANCE. Consider TIME AND time dilation ON/IN BALANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is CLEARLY AND NECESSARILY proven to be gravity (ON/IN BALANCE); AS TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual ON/IN BALANCE. Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites (ON BALANCE). GREAT !!!!
BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand. Carefully consider, ON BALANCE, why and how it is that there is something instead of nothing !!!!

The episodes with Lord Nice are my absolute favorites!
Star Talk is an amazing and educational show. Thank you both for being such an inspiration to the entire world and probably to a few people zooming around it at 17,500 MPH!
For me, it's all the poetic ways Neil talks about science, the subtle manner in which he transcends or connects the binary(of science/art). There is a lot to learn from you. Hats off.
I am so envious that Chuck is so lucky to have a friend in Neil and to do this show I love you both so much keep up the good work
Idk i cant watch a episode without Chuck. His energy is too enjoyable.
My favorite two space talkers!
I absolutely adore what you do Mr. Neil! In my mind, you rank as the Bob Ross of science. You are in living rooms entertaining us with science! School is never out and you are the best bus driver. Also, Chuck is no slouch. I’d like to know more of his thoughts on white holes. I think he might be onto something 🤣🤣🤣The dynamic you share together is invaluable. Thank you so much! I love you guys!
Dear professor Tyson. Could you please do the world a big favor? Design the curriculum and lessons for grade 1 through 12. It would go along way to increase interest in science and making it easier to understand. I mean between books! I'm not crazy lol. Thanks for everything
I'm definitely one of those people who miss school. I was happy with summer breaks but I was sad school was gonna end. I loved learning. I didn't have many friends but was friendly with everyone. We all knew each other. 300 or 400 people we grew up together. Clicks existed but it wasn't very strict.
My old boyfriend used to say we were in the university of life.
Love this show, while I'll admit I'm not as informed as Neil on these topics, his breakdowns on the topics are awesome.
I know it. Just simple conversation and lecturing, no fancy simulations, no high dollar graphics, just amazing raw intelligence is so much better.
I really took school for granted when I was a kid. I wish I loved learning back then as much as I do now.
Neil and Chuck for 2024
I loved being in school! High school introduced me to the worlds of calculus, abstract algebra, and so many other worlds of mathematics and physics! That's why I'm here at this channel. Lifelong learning!!! Thanks Neil and Chuck! BTW: Get Hannah Fry back for a math show. She's my favorite mathematician!
This is encouraging to read 🤩
I hope your bond with learning continues to fortify your life & flourish ! Enjoy your beautiful life 🎉
I missed school so much i went back at 40 :) i am 50 now and miss it again.
The best science show, available to everyone.
You are a gift to humanity
Wish Neil was my teacher in schools.
I appreciate the frank conversation about life/consciousness and touching upon how its temporary nature is what gives it so much value. I feel like it's always hard to speak candidly about this kind of stuff (and especially so publicly and with the reach this show has) because religious and cultural norms can create such a negative backlash to anything that undermines people's beliefs. So in short, I just really appreciate how matter of fact you are about it. It really *is* simple, and it feels like so many problems in society could have been avoided if our cultures weren't so socially acceptive (and in many cases welcoming) of belief without justification.
I’m not religious in the least bit I do think there HAS to be something after death we just have no way of proving it. We can’t see what happens when someone is dead from the person who died’s perspective. And that state of where there’s nothing we don’t know how long that happens. Like Neil said we don’t have a conscious awareness before we exist so who’s to say something doesn’t happen to where one day we suddenly become aware but in another person’s body. I feel out of all things the most likely scenario is rebirth. I see no possible way where we die and then there’s nothing at all. There has to be something else.
I was disappointed that you guys didn't at least speak of the common and relatively consistent experiences of near death patients.
@@edbass2769 These experiences are happening when there is still electrical-activity in the brain, and demostrate what happens when different areas of the brain begin to shut-down...It's easily reproduced by g-force testing or psychoactive-drugs. The experience tells us about how the brain fuctions, but nothing about an _afterlife_
@@DarkestVoid There really doesn't "have to be something else" , it's just chemicals and biology at work. Do you think trees go to a better place? What about bacteria? what about things that are so close to just being simple chemistry we don't even call it "life", like viruses?
Make the most of it, the time after you die will be _exactly_ like it was before you were born ...
Always informative and funny . Neil you’re my hero . Chuck always hilarious
I’ve seen a couple of guest almost seemed annoyed @ Chuck’s timing some times.
"Your speaking like a person who has confidence. I like to get the money up front." 😂😆🤣😂😂😆🤣
I'm dying over here! I love the combination of you two. It works perfectly! How did the two of you come together for Star Talk?
That was great!
*you’re
Just what we needed, Neil! Seems like a lot of people could use a little refresher on some grade school topics.
Almost 2 million subscribers! Wooohooo great job yallz!
This show needs a co-host like Chuck. He is us, and helps bring complex notions to the mass.
Three of us, at least. I loved it, and as a old woman, I still love learning.
Neil and/or Chuck should do a cameo in Star Wars as Imperial scientists or force sensitives. That would be cool!
We need more episodes ! 😍
I love learning... once I stop learning I'll be pushing daisies.
I also enjoy teaching what I know.
From computers, fixing cars, carpentry and riding motorcycles.
Now I'm a farmer. Making trebuchet to entertain me and the dogs. Because trebuchet!!!
“You’re speaking like a person who has confidence.” 🤣🤣🤣 Chuck is hilarious!
Waiting eagerly for Neil's new booked named Starry Messenger.
Absolutely love this channel! could watch it all day!
Could you please have back to school more often, may 3x yearly?
"If little toe-nail is thinking about -time dilation-, what is big toe thinking about?" That one made me cry with laughter.
I love learning while being able to move around. It was hard for me to sit still in chairs at school.
It is a wonder of the 21st century that I have access to Dr. Tyson exploring these topics!
Chuck offers just the right mix of curiosity and humor to bring out the fascinating points of your subjects. Great team you two, ty!
you sit still in school because that's the only way you can truly and accurately retain information. your brain can't cement your learning into long term memory if you're busying it with other tasks. watching these videos while going about your day may be fuel for curiosity, but it's a far cry from learning and retaining information.
to prove my point, can you summarize what this video taught you about time dilation? WITHOUT going and watching it again? no, you can't. because you didn't learn it, you just used it as bubblegum for your curiosity. nothing wrong with it.
@Samantha Loughborough Ummmm, Howard Gardner's work in this area is over forty years old. You may have trouble learning while doing other tasks, but don't assume this is true for everyone.
@@firebird2 regardless of your preferential methods for learning, if I read you a list and ask you to recite it, you're going to repeat it more accurate if you focus solely on my words, rather than if you were folding laundry or some other rudimentary task. and that's only an example of your working(short term) memory, not your long term memory retention. your brain has a limit to how many electrical impulses can be sent effectively.
@Samantha Loughborough I don't know what your background in neurology or education is, clearly it is limited.
You are focused on memorization. Learning is so much more.
senang sekali menonton dan mendengar kalian berdua, semoga selalu sehat dan panjang umur. terus berbagi pengetahuan pak Neil deGrasse Tyson dan pak Chuck Nice
HEY.............Thank you Neil & Nice ! ! !
I Thouroughly ! .....Enjoy listening to you both !!
I learn... I laugh and Enjoy !!!
Big fan of the show, a quick critial feedback... The questions or the genre of questions seems to repeat almost all episode. Maybe we can pick different sets of questions. Also, guys I've a suggestion- please start explaining equations so that along with understanding the concepts we can also see the application. For e.g. F= gm1m2/r1r2 | Here if Niel can help us understand how was the equation derived and why arranged this way mathematically and conceptually.
Might encourage me at least to not just understand but apply.
Sure wish I had a teacher like Neil. Maybe I woulda gotten better grades.
I love those black and white jokes Chuck spices up the show with now and then. 🤣
This kind of humor has gotten far to rare nowadays. Keep goin, man.
Love how excited and genuine Cleo is about this
Yes, I want more of this please! 🤓
Gday mate!!.. Pete from the 🍎🏝
I love you guys!
🤣🤣🤣 That "Darth Vader" had me worried for Neil's life 🤣🤣🤣
I’m enjoying my final “read-through” by reading and listening to worthwhile things like this.
This is science for the non geeks who know now as much as geeks😂❤️
Going to this from that Sean Carroll episode is like getting pulled out of your late semester engineering course and thrown back into the 5th grade lol
That fact that they film it with Neil's head so prevalent in the shot, makes it feel like he's bending over your pushchair to impart his knowledge... Condescending at best
This is a great episode, I would love more of these , better than any podcast, and a better watch then anything else on the internet 💯🍻
Great content, where interesting meets funny, what a duo
I just watched your episode about time when an alternate answer was given about your life span which said the moment in time where you are alive will always exist.
What if all of human irrationality is just floating-point error in the ultimately-finite simulation computer?
I liked thinking about the timing of water and trees . Mind blown . Thnx Josh ❤
Thank you Neil for decoding other peoples questions and telling them what they actually meant to ask and explaining it. You really need to be thanked properly by people.
Hi Dr. Tyson, thanks for the lecture, always fun to learn about everything.
Ps: i miss Dr. Charles Liu, i believe it would be amazing so see him on this episode
Teach Chuck...school is NEVER OUT. Neil was on point for us aspiring people who keep nurturing that level of curiosity...its like eating or breathing...I MUST LEARN!!!
I'm one of those 2 people. Tha ks for the shout out Lord Nice!
I agree with Neil. Assume there are 0ast lives, assume I WAS Leonardo DaVinci, I can't make his discoveries today, only had 1 chance at that. MAKE THIS LIFE COUNT!
Crocodiles are dinosaurs too
Great episode. Friday nights with Neil and Chuck.
Love these shows
23:55 was so sweet lol “not giving you that” ❤️ I love this channel
la primer parte del episodio fue muy importante para mi, mi padre, hoy cumple 20 años de muerto, pero sus dos últimos años los pasó postrado en una cama luego de un derrame y muchos subsecuentes derrames lo fueron reduciendo, fue duro ver como su vida y lo qué él había sido toda su vida se iba desvaneciendo hasta que su cuerpo se dió por vencido. escuchar estas palabras de Neil me removieron un poco pero también me hicieron recordar con cariño el hombre que mi padre fue. un fuerte saludo desde Colombia.
My DREAM Debate would be Neil DeGrass Tyson VS Billy Carson. On SEVERAL TOPICS
Chuck is so lucky. What a great job that’s gotta be. 🍀
Just found your show. It’s great 👍
Science is the GREATNESS of human kinds experiencing a understanding of living, with a theory, they can create with there hands and achieve anything..Love The Show 👏👏👏
I was lucky enough to have good teachers when I was in school who made classes fun and now that I’m older I still enjoy learning new things. I know people who hated school so much that they refuse to take in any type of media if it’s educational.
Love this so much thank you
I've known the "twin paradox" as the "moving clock paradox" since I was about 15. It perplexed me then, and it still perplexes me now.
LOVE the title! LOVE the title as an idea.
Fits in snugly with compulsory education.
Thank you, Chuck and Neil, it was worth listening to the whole show...
JUST to learn from Mr Nice what white holes do to black holes, OMG!
🤣🤣😍😍😍
Your Patrons, by far, have the best questions...
Great show, truly enlightening!
Absolutely love you guys! Chuck, you're an incredible foil to Neil's information.
Something else about Saturns rings. They weren't always there, and therefore they are temporary. Cosmologists believe they will disappear in about 500m years. I'm looking forward to watching it!
in regard to the GPS's time, I think Neil meant their time ticks faster not slower as he mentioned, because time flows slower in the vicinity of the earth than out in at higher altitudes by about four part in a billion.
Physics seems to be giving me a new outlook on life. I've never found anything more fascinating. I'm finally not bored!!
Omg perfect timing!
EARLY for a change. Love it, another great episode. Is it just me, or is it SO easy to forget the basics unless you work with it all the time. Ugh.
Amazing to hear you speak. I hope you can get some rest because you look tired
Neil is a brilliant, brilliant man !
Wow this whole video answered all my questions in my head thanks Neil😍😍
I LOVE! Chucks Black hole joke! pure gold lmao!
Great video guys, thanks for the videos🤗
great episode guys, thank you
Neil is either high af or extremely tired. Nick is on point and ready to work. Either way, Neil's wisdome and knowledge is still fascinating and a pleasure to listen to
This is a perfect duo
you guys are so awesome, love the show
It's me, I love school and learning. Large nerdy campuses are my happy place.
I'm gonna save this for later. Thank you Mr Tyson 😁
i think time ticks slow for us as we are closer to high mass (earth) but fast for satellite as they are away from the mass. I am not sure if the sattelite speed makes time slow in sattelites. Because i think gps sattelites are geo stationary.
Neil said something that reminded me of a quote from a book called Brother West: Living And Loving Out Loud." Don't remember the name of the gentleman who said it but it was, "life after death is no more problematical than life before life" and I think that's a really beautiful outlook.
I’m so happy I’m alive in the same lifetime as Neil and Chuck
Awesome ❤❤❤
Great show
Chuck really getting his mind blown this episode. 27:22
I am troubled by Neil's explanation of mirror flipping. The reason that (flat) mirrors 'flip' us horizontally and not vertically is that they don't flip us at all, or rather, they flip us in the plane of the mirror. In physical space, in order to turn something front to back, we must either rotate it vertically, flipping it top to bottom AND front to back, or rotate it horizontally, flipping it left to right and front to back. Since we don't ordinarily see people flipped top to bottom and since we can very quickly confirm the vertical orientation of the self in the mirror, we intuitively expect the left-to-right flip, and it is the absence of that flip that we notice. Am I misunderstanding this? Or have I misunderstood the explanation given here?
No i was wondering the same thing, ive always learned it switched front and back. Not left and right
Neil and Chuck ✌🏽💪🏾🎥
I love this channel..
Man, I miss being in college. All my engineering classes were always so facinating. I'm still learning after graduation however!
