      Can you, as a physicist, say why we tend to discuss dark matter as a fact rather than as a temporary placeholder for an explanation of observations that don't fit our current theories? I find it baffling and a bit troubling that we seem to be going to great lengths to accommodate existing theory rather than questioning the completeness or adequacy of the theory to explain gravity on the very large scale. It seems to fly in the face of the scientific method. I do value your opinion. Thanks!

    • @ranyeredt
      @ranyeredt 10 месяцев назад +1

      @@beenaplumber8379 Well, that's actually a problem in your understanding in the matter. I used to have this same argument for dark matter. It seemed like a guess. But it goes beyond that. Let's go to the facts. First, if you look at galaxies rotation speed, you'll notice they're spinning in a velocity that would just expel stars from the galaxy if you only consider the regular matter. So, actually, there must be "some substance" that is concentrated inside the galaxy perimeter, and that "something" has to have mass, and don't interact with regular matter through electromagnetism, only through gravity. And I know, it's not enough to jump to "dark matter". But all other possible explanations just failed to explain whats going on. And then they discovered the "bullet cluster", and that just raised, by a lot, the probability that Dark matter is real
      The Bullet Cluster is composed of two clusters of galaxies that collided and moved past each other, though this is not clear when viewing the region solely in visible light. Multi-wavelength observations of the Bullet Cluster provided the first strong observational evidence that dark matter does not interact with normal matter, or with itself, and holds the majority of mass in a galaxy cluster. Astronomers use visible-light images to map the location of the clusters’ mass, based on how the light of background galaxies is warped. Most of that mass is dark matter. X-rays show that the majority of normal matter, in this case gas, is in a different location than the dark matter of each cluster-it lags behind. This is because the normal matter of the two galaxy clusters collided, while the dark matter sailed through and kept going without interacting at all. Many mysteries remain as to the nature of dark matter, and the Bullet Cluster provides key evidence in the scientific investigation.
      They have a good candidate for dark matter now, and they're creating experiments to verify. It's very small size and mass particles, called AXIONS.
      So, just search for some video about the "bullet cluster". I'm sure it will convince you too. Have a nice day, my friend.

    • @beenaplumber8379
      @beenaplumber8379 10 месяцев назад

      @@ranyeredt Ooh that is an interesting observation. The center of mass moved along a trajectory as if the clusters hadn't collided, as viewed by lensing, but the ordinary matter (seen by x-ray detection) followed the path consistent with the collision, so the visible matter and the center of gravity became measurably separated? Yeah, that's compelling all right. I'll look that up. It's hard for me to imagine some poorly understood supergalactic-scale gravitational phenomenon that could become separated from the mass it supposedly arises from. But it's also weird that dark matter can give rise to its own gravity yet not be affected by gravity.
      I read somewhere that dark matter was hypothesized to interact with itself by something other than gravitation, but it seems it has to be attracted to itself at some level in order to collapse into the filaments we see. I mean, dark matter is said to have collapsed and formed structure, then ordinary matter was drawn into that structure, right? Can dark matter still have this attraction to itself, only it's weaker than gravity?
      Thanks for telling me about the bullet cluster. That's putting a few of the pieces together for me!

      About dark matter interacting with itself, it hapens, but only through gravity. So, it doesn't collide. Recent theories, involving Axions and quantum mechanics puts dark matter in a fluid like behavior.
      I really think we're on to something.
      Another theory in 2022 argumented dark matter could also interact, besides gravity, with itself, but weakly. The first step now is try to detect the Axion. Let's see...

      And shouldn't they occupy a larger arc-area of our sky, relative to their actual size, than nearer objects because when they formed their size was relatively much larger compared to the (then smaller) universe as a whole? I know I read that somewhere about the most distant observable galaxies, but I've never seen it pointed out in an image, and the images in this vid don't seem to show it - not clearly anyway. The most distant galaxies are just clusters of pixels in these images.

    Another great video, and coincidentally very timely, as i had been discussing the topic of the "origin" of the universe (and time) in recent days.
    Granted, it wasn't so much a debate than it was us voicing our own opinions about it, but this video is exactly in line with my thinking.
    The "nothingness" isn't really nothing, it's just not something that we can understand right now, because we haven't observed it or recognized it yet.
    I'm sure that during the period of "nothingness", there are actually all kinds of particle interactions, maybe a proto-weak force acting on particles and slowly shifting/organizing them into places where chain reactions can happen, and once that happens, then it's "light's ON and away we go!".
    I've always held a belief that our visibility is blocked by some kind of redshifted "wall of light", kinda like noise cancelling headphones, our "winds" and forces block some photons, making things appear dark to us, it would be cool to see if a radio telescope in space might peer through that.
    Looking forward to the next video!

    There's so many bunk channels out there making truly garbage "science content" for clicks, even downright lying, so forgive me for being a bit skeptical going into this, but you guys do really good work. It's a shame all those other channels are almost ruining it for ones like this when I come across them.

      This is a popular demonstration of a history of all our universe, but supposing all our universe broke out at one point as a transformation of the primal Yelm (Gramov's Big Bang, ) this was our place in space. As we look out upon it, what we see will tend to be as old as we are. Even if we are traveling at c, the oldest we see will be pretty much what was to be seen when our dispersion hit the relative c.
      That is, by the time consciousness arose, we would not see the original Big Bang. Nobody believes this. The cosmic background could be merely local black body radiation. Certainly local black body radiation must be a component of the background static..
      Why does nobody believe this? Astronomers believe odder things.

    Wow! What a stunning tribute to human ingenuity. Excellent video - one of the best I've seen so far. I think the most stunning part of all this is the ingenuity of the people who have designed and built the instrumentation allowing such detailed observations to be made, particularly when it comes to extremely weak signals. LIGO is another example and SQUID magnetometers yet another. I can't wait to see what comes next.

    Thank you for this series. I have NO desire to ever watch network TV again. Your videos are not just entertaining, but afterward , reflection about what I once knew about astronomy and how each installment has furthered my understanding is so rewarding to know what I just watched was not a silly waste of time. The idea that there is a web structure that facilitates the birth of stars is valuable information to me.

      He could tell u anything in that state of mind & you'd believe it. Most of this is just theories. A british accent for some reason puts many people at ease to absorb information rather than question and test it. A weakness someone in intelligence might exploit. These are way too well done to be anything less. It's what they want you to think many times with some truths thrown in. This guy wants you to think we are all a simulation inside a Boltson brain FLOATING in the universe. And that THAT is more likely than humans (or animals) evolving brains inside bodies. QUACKERY. Anything else I can't take seriously after that. It's interesting to argue with though. Amazing people don't see this channel for what it is. Entertainment but at your digression, brainwashing. Many of the answers are just God. Like the creation of the universe they can't figure out. And we know it's actually 26 B years old now. They were wrong the whole time ICYMI. Recent news. I guess guy has to update ALL of his videos now. Not much different that TV does "programming". Just be careful. Good & bad stuff in here. MOSTLY theory. God bless!

    One of the joys of my young adulthood was when processing power in computers established the capacity to render radio telescope images as IMAGES. It would be a culmination of that joy to live long enough to see these simple radio telescopes distributed across Icy moons to create baselines in the billions of kilometers for the resolution of objects and structures such as these reionization shells.
    Thank you for these videos, and for how they remind me of the excitement of childhood scientific discovery.

    I’ve been amazed and looking into and researching science spacetime relativity quantum mechanics all kinds of theories but one thing that will never stop blowing my mind is that simply looking into the sky is looking back in time. The fact a civilization far enough away would see dinosaurs walking the earth even though to our perception they have not existed for million and millions of years. So what is the truth do they not exist and our perception is right or do they still exist some how on the same earth as us and we just can’t perceive it ? What is time it’s the most interesting question in think we can ask

    The story I have on Hindenburg is somewhat different. To my understanding helium was already the standard. The narrative I've got has it that Germany never developed the infrastructure to produce it's own helium as it was obtaining it cheaply enough from US suppliers. Suddenly the US government forbid the sale of helium to Germany, forcing the Zeppelin operators to turn/return to relying upon hydrogen to keep the fleet in service. We know how that ended.

      How smart do you think you need to be to understand what you want to understand? Don't sell yourself short! Having that attitude makes it difficult to learn. If you think you're not smart, you have to prove yourself wrong first in order to learn. We humans don't like proving ourselves wrong. 😛
