Up until 3 years ago I was familiar with Brian Green. Because of utube and Dr Tyson I became aware of two more. I am now familiar with six leading scientists that I can put into my lexicon of science . I am a 72 year old disabled Vet who is thoroughly enjoying the internet and the questions science is raising.

I love this comment. 🥰 so glad to see the beauty of the internet and exchange of information have a positive effect on someone's life. It's made an impact on me too.
Einstein was figuring all this out in his mind while people were still traveling on horses, discovering & understanding time dialation & length contraction by doing thought experiments, at a time when spaceflight was but a dream. Genius doesn't seem to do him justice, & it makes Newton & all those others even more astonishing when you consider how long ago they were figuring out all the different laws of the universe, when man's knowledge & scientific understanding was so limited, extraordinary mind's that one can but appreciate, marvel & envy. Bravo.
According to wiki the Wright Brothers were in flight in 1903. Einstein's was smart, but his Space Bending theory is impossible. Newton's Gravity do not enable motion ! Mathematical concepts without physical evidence is not physics !
@@akosseres There's none. All Newton's equations of motion fits perfectly with ENERGY. If there's one single motion that's enabled by Gravity here on planet Earth, please let me know !
@@rayagoldendropofsun397 If you throw an object here on Earth in a vacuum then the trajectory is going to be a parabola... That's because of gravity. Also, the precise calculations needed to launch rockets and satellites into orbit would not be possible without mathematically describing gravity. Also general relativity perfectly predicts the motion of planets inside the solar system.
I don't mind admitting I have a huge man-crush on Brian Greene. He is such an incredible educator. He makes complex and seemingly boring subjects feel magical, joyful and funny.
I could listen to Steven Weinberg all day. What an amazing intellect. I would love to take a class from him and can’t believe he is still teaching. I would love to know what he meant when he said that he doesn’t look at the pictures, they are misleading (or words that I interpret that way).
One of the best science speakers and an amazing personality, Brian Greene. So much respect to him. He’s one of those people who attract and make you view him as a role model even though I’m not in this “role model” concept overall. Like the Higgs boson that brings pieces together and makes mass matter.
@@IDraganM - Gravity started with Newton's apple downward falling motion, which is wrong. Truth of downward falling motion happens when active rising gases in free flowing motion bonds together making solids, trapping it's molecules motion within. Example: Atmospheric oxygen and hydrogen gas molecules bonds together making water, which is a state of solid motionless mass with its molecules trapped within, because of this, it's free flowing motion is lost, causing a downward falling motion known as RAINDROPS !
21 people currently do not like physics. This was great, but most all of them are on this awesome channel. It's a damn shame this channels videos don't get millions, and even billions of views.

In this presentation, Brian Greene serves as the perfect moderator because he offers a style that contains both the academic scholar and the "close friend." He is highly credible, and he is always fully aware of his audience's needs. The panel consists of today's geniuses in their fields, and they all performed spectacularly. The content included a huge amount of important material. The visual technology and platform for this presentation is superior and it was sharply executed. This is rather lengthy as presentations go. However, this one holds your attention throughout. So, sit in a comfortable chair, open a good bottle of wine, and enjoy this presentation.

55:55 I come from the close future and we have finally detected the gravitational waves:):) Just as Einstein predicted This is just what the worlds needs a group of people all over the planet talking about science in a calm manner.
I wish this group will sit together once more and talk about the same stuff , knowing that we now actually have the first pictures and scientific evidance of black holes and the ripple of time and space 😊
thank you science guys. These UA-cam videos really get people thinking and you never know where the next great ideas will come from. Hopefully programs like this will help to seek out the next genius to fill in some more of the picture. I'd love to be a fly on the wall to see what the next hundred years will bring
Just in between 2015 when this was recorded and now 2019, the gravitation waves made due to two colliding black holes were detected and therefore proved and a photo of a black holes were taken. Such a wonderful time to be alive. Physics is so gorgeous and so exciting.
What a fascinating discussion! I wish more people on this planet would listen to brilliant scientists discuss the natural world. As an aside, Brian Greene is an excellent host of these scientific forums. His ability to rephrase an expert's statements into more simple, less technical language is masterful. And finally, as a professor of psychology for 43 years, I have realized a passion for physics during the past 10 years. I just wish I could live longer to study this field in more depth. P.S. As we all know, gravitational waves have now been detected. How exciting is that!
I am definitely awed by science and would like to learn more. The presentations from the men’s festival are impressive. I look forward to presentations from the women’s science festival, which I assume is upcoming. For some reason, women’s explanations of complex topics are generally easier for me to grasp.
I cannot thank you guys enough for your uploads and channel. You have been a source of inspiration and knowledge for the open mind and to those who want to see the world differently, more beautifull. Thank you from South-Africa. One day I wish to sit in the audience 😉
Steven Weinberg's acquiescence to black holes is the quintessential example of the power of science and the scientific method working through evidence and facts. Although Steven was heavily in one corner, when the facts came in he acknowledged them. Letting go of his ego and following what he learned, and giving us all a great example of how to keep an open mind!
I enjoy going back to these previous lectures knowing how much has been proven and how they arrived at the results. These are timeless by providing so much theory and applied comprehension.
12:42 Newton does watched the sea ⛵⚓ he even said: "I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me." So careful what you said about one of the greatest minds humanity has ever had. 🤓👌
out of all the world science festival videos I've watched Brian Green is the best presenter by far. I wish the others were as organised and knowledgeable about the subject as him. The concept of getting someone in to host who doesn't know anything about physics is not a good idea in reality it just comes across as unprofessional and can confuse the listener.
When I was young student.... Always loved Physics, Mathematics & Architecture before I drop off-from my university for personal reasons & succeeded different way!... Great conversations. I enjoy it. One day I'll hold my favorite titles...no matter-what-it takes. Just to keep my brand...Not to make money for it.
It hit me when he was in an undergrad in college and bought Einsteins book and within “ a couple years he understood it.” I’m in my 40s and just now acquiring this knowledge. I’ve fretted away my youth….
57:59 The first observation was made on 14 of September 2015 and announced on February 11th 2016.

Thanks for the math and nice visualizations. It's really enjoyable to see all this videos. Feeding knowledge and curiosity, a productive replacement for my Netflix addiction.
I joined this year's WSFB, and with kind of hindsight when I watch this clip again, I see Brian Greene having appeared to be skeptical with the attempt to detecting gravitational waves. Interesting!
This comment board is full of people with no education in any relevant field critiquing the smartest people working on the most difficult problems in physics. If you're about to comment something negative, think just a few seconds longer about whether you have anything actually relevant to say.
I had a conversation w/ Dr. Weinberg about 25 years ago on the possibilities of quantum effects being responsible for "paranormal" events. At first, he was reluctant to admit that there might be a connection. After a half an hour or so, though, he did confess that it was not beyond the realm of possibility. Now retired, he is still one of the most open minded physicists that I have met. Though, perhaps not with all of his colleagues.
It’s so wonderful that since this video was published two of the topics alluded to have been addressed successfully: we have confirmed observations of gravitational waves and we have the first image of a black hole!
a black hole with only one charge will never make it, not all that shiness is gold not every thing rounded and dark is a block hole - all sistems have holes wene crossing the bridges of each color from center to right and left - all sistems have a center, a north side and south side.
It wasn't _precisely_ that light will be deflected by a gravitational field - since Newton's math already showed that would happen. Einstein's calculations though, showed that the effect would be _twice as great_ which was the important difference.
Watching this in 2024 and I note Brian's slightly snarky tone with Gabriela's work on gravitational waves. Love that she was vindicated only four months after this conference, when they were first directly detected by her team.
Brilliant. Especially the last 40 minutes were fascinating and give me something to chew on. Some crazy ideas already popping into my mind, better keep them for myself. :-)
fascinating to see this knowing that shortly after this, they did detect a gravitational wave at LIGO, and it was so much better, louder and less noisy than anything they could have hoped for. Must be extremely satisfying.
Brian Greene is a top man. If it hadn't been for him and Steven Weinberg this video would have lost a great deal of its impact! I'm sure that we have all heard these somewhat tedious arguments (as put forward by the rest of the guests) so that we are not surprised by their fairly expected responses. Nevertheless, this is a rather entertaining video although there is little in the way of original ideas from the guests. That said, it's a "like" from me and I drank too much coffee while watching this video! Cheers.
Steven Weinberg is a moron. Einstein was a quack. The whole notion of space-time is utter bullshit. Space has no physical properties, and time is just measured motion.
@@Mick0722MX You have a point, BUT do you have an alternative theory how the universe works at a macro level. Could you include equations that predict the movement of the Earth's motion around sun?
Great talk. I would really enjoy a discussion about the fundamentals in mathemathics, physics and philosophy -- the difficult problems at the point of the arrowhead: Inherent indeterminacy in axiomatic systems (leads to measurement problems in physics). Experimental data is pointing to an emergent reality. I would like to listen to new ideas about the metaphysical implications of quantum mechanics. I would even embrace very speculative ones, because strange -- coherently strange -- ideas should be considered at this point. Epistemology plays a very important role in how we define axiomatic systems conceptually (often underestimated). We need new ways of asking difficult questions, because the purely mathemathical picture of the universe seems to break down to the language of mathemathics itself as we probe deeper (This does not mean that reality is mathematics. It means that reality is idealistic, and we do not know how to deal with that -- because it implies that reality has some kind of purpose). I would like to listen to people who do not confuse the concept 'absence of anything' with the number zero. The concept 'absence of anything' is nonsensical when it is applied to physical systems -- and even in ordinary language. This confusion seems to be widespread. It leads to theoretical weirdness (Infinitely expanding 'nothing' described as 'something' etc.). I would also like to listen to creative ideas about how the observer fits into this picture. The C-word and quantum mechanics mentioned in the same sentence is not necessarily just semantics or quantum quackery. The act of mesurement: interaction between probabilistic fields, seems to have some fundamental significance (interaction presupposes an observer ... a point of determinacy). This means that reality is at least self-referential at the quantum level of reality (I am one of those 'crackpots' who still consider the possibility of teleological effects). I want to know what is going on there, because it seems to me that I am either crazy or that there is something everybody else knows that I just do not understand.
IM mexican i dont believe most of all - how good can make it the standard moddle with out gravity and all the fortress are based on and there a lot that beleave without seen
"The 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Rainer Weiss, Barry Barish and Kip Thorne "for decisive contributions to the LIGO detector and the observation of gravitational waves".
Correction: 45:02 not 7km/s - escape velocity For the Earth is 11.2 km/s ≈ 25,000 mph! However, at 9,000 km altitude in "space", it is slightly less than 7.1 km/s.
In regards to dark energy * In this video ( 36:05 ) Brian Greene states that pressure yields gravity. I beleive the extra gravity we are measuring is due to pressure of empty space-time its self, the energy of a vacuum. When space time is warped, the curve is filled with space, the energy of the space should have pressure added with greater depth. This is why we cannot see the gravitional sources, this would also explain why we measure it to be evenly dispersed. This would also explain the expansion of the universe. Like bubbles growing in size and accelerating in speed when rising under the pressure of water, so does matter, when under the affects of the pressure of a vacuum.
Science, alone, doesnt actually do much. Highly intelligent people 'rule', as you say. Those bestowed with a rare level of intelligence created science.
Anyone may make theoretical knowledge. Most persons may discover practical evidence, measurements, methods, repeatable experiments, analyses, models, etc.
The problem will physicists like Steven Weinberg is that they think Einsteins theorem isn’t a big deal. I mean it is the basis of quantum mechanics. I would like to see him develop something even close to that.
Consider the Big Bang as not being the origin of our Universe but the continuation of space time from another universe where Black holes with so much density actually rip through the fabric of space. There might be as many universes as there are galaxies in our own backyard. Philosophical and science fiction stuff in itself but hey no one knows what happens inside a black hole and did Hawkins not discover that black holes eventually evaporate.

Nevertheless, this is a rather entertaining video although there is little in the way of original ideas from the guests.
That said, it's a "like" from me and I drank too much coffee while watching this video!
Cheers.
Einsteins mistake was him thinking that he had made a mistake - Steven Weinberg
Steven Weinberg is a moron. Einstein was a quack. The whole notion of space-time is utter bullshit. Space has no physical properties, and time is just measured motion.
@@Mick0722MX You have a point, BUT do you have an alternative theory how the universe works at a macro level. Could you include equations that predict the movement of the Earth's motion around sun?

Great talk. I would really enjoy a discussion about the fundamentals in mathemathics, physics and philosophy -- the difficult problems at the point of the arrowhead: Inherent indeterminacy in axiomatic systems (leads to measurement problems in physics). Experimental data is pointing to an emergent reality. I would like to listen to new ideas about the metaphysical implications of quantum mechanics. I would even embrace very speculative ones, because strange -- coherently strange -- ideas should be considered at this point.
Epistemology plays a very important role in how we define axiomatic systems conceptually (often underestimated). We need new ways of asking difficult questions, because the purely mathemathical picture of the universe seems to break down to the language of mathemathics itself as we probe deeper (This does not mean that reality is mathematics. It means that reality is idealistic, and we do not know how to deal with that -- because it implies that reality has some kind of purpose).
I would like to listen to people who do not confuse the concept 'absence of anything' with the number zero. The concept 'absence of anything' is nonsensical when it is applied to physical systems -- and even in ordinary language. This confusion seems to be widespread. It leads to theoretical weirdness (Infinitely expanding 'nothing' described as 'something' etc.).
I would also like to listen to creative ideas about how the observer fits into this picture. The C-word and quantum mechanics mentioned in the same sentence is not necessarily just semantics or quantum quackery. The act of mesurement: interaction between probabilistic fields, seems to have some fundamental significance (interaction presupposes an observer ... a point of determinacy). This means that reality is at least self-referential at the quantum level of reality (I am one of those 'crackpots' who still consider the possibility of teleological effects). I want to know what is going on there, because it seems to me that I am either crazy or that there is something everybody else knows that I just do not understand.
I live only a few miles away from the Livingston La LIGO. It's a pretty dang interesting place if I say so myself. 😊
I am still amazed on how many predictions General Relativity is still making.
How beautiful is the current time w.r.t this video. We have detected gravitational waves, we have black hole image. Way to go Science!!
surprisingly only after 2 months of this conference , Gravitational waves were detected by ligo @55:28
Due to my stupidity i can not put into words the greatness of this video
Not stupidity but your insight.
Wow incredible video and guests. Thanks you!
Well, Lucky Gabriela, did not have to wait so long in the end for results from LIGO :-)
Ok it's official I'm a geek, loved it, loved the explanations and the graphics presentation.
IM mexican i dont believe most of all - how good can make it the standard moddle with out gravity and all the fortress are based on and there a lot that beleave without seen
i think i'm the only person here who likes these subjects too much without understanding anything at all.
Hey physicist here, i can say to u same, u are not the only one.
@@Нав-д6ю no your not
"The 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Rainer Weiss, Barry Barish and Kip Thorne "for decisive contributions to the LIGO detector and the observation of gravitational waves".
where are the subtitles??? I need to watch this and I need the subtitless :(
Thank you for sharing! I enjoyed this conversation!
I actually do have the same formulation of the Einstein field equations that they show at 19:00 tattooed on my arm :)
big mistake boddy he is based in just a color(yellow one) and space is not flat but exagonal cone shaped
Correction: 45:02 not 7km/s - escape velocity For the Earth is 11.2 km/s ≈ 25,000 mph! However, at 9,000 km altitude in "space", it is slightly less than 7.1 km/s.
Always pleasure hearing brian greene.....
In regards to dark energy *
In this video ( 36:05 ) Brian Greene states that pressure yields gravity.
I beleive the extra gravity we are measuring is due to pressure of empty space-time its self, the energy of a vacuum. When space time is warped, the curve is filled with space, the energy of the space should have pressure added with greater depth. This is why we cannot see the gravitional sources, this would also explain why we measure it to be evenly dispersed. This would also explain the expansion of the universe. Like bubbles growing in size and accelerating in speed when rising under the pressure of water, so does matter, when under the affects of the pressure of a vacuum.
Hmm nice
and they detected the first gravitational wave 5 months after this ! Amazing ! Science Rules !
And now, a photo of black hole is successfully taken too!
was looking for this comment
Science, alone, doesnt actually do much. Highly intelligent people 'rule', as you say.
Those bestowed with a rare level of intelligence created science.
Anyone may make theoretical knowledge. Most persons may discover practical evidence, measurements, methods, repeatable experiments, analyses, models, etc.
The illustration of the curvature of space shows the spatial coordinates getting further apart from each other which is the opposite of what happens.
next year she will come back! :)
The problem will physicists like Steven Weinberg is that they think Einsteins theorem isn’t a big deal. I mean it is the basis of quantum mechanics. I would like to see him develop something even close to that.
when Brian announced 2nd guest I heard "Erwin Schrödinger", I was like whaaaaaaaaaaaa.... oh
But then you measured and he was dead?
It would be the epitome of quantum mechanics :)
Thank you Samir. I was wondering why the entangled particles that fall into the black hole have negative energy.
Absolutely brilliant discussion
@43:00 the picture of black hole ... Several years later we have a real picture of a hole
5:06 .. "Prease" - I love Brian Greene, but I had to do it lmao
Mr greene ur way of explaing is so nice ..love from pakistan
I don't understand much but enjoyed greatly
Consider the Big Bang as not being the origin of our Universe but the continuation of space time from another universe where Black holes with so much density actually rip through the fabric of space. There might be as many universes as there are galaxies in our own backyard. Philosophical and science fiction stuff in itself but hey no one knows what happens inside a black hole and did Hawkins not discover that black holes eventually evaporate.
