It's like, if I'm riding a purple polkadot dragon at the speed of light... And a yellow submarine passes me at the speed of light... That is 🚫NOT🚫 2x the speed of light. That's like, relative to the yellow submarine my purple polkadot dragon is standing still. If two events are not causally connected they can be moving at more than the speed of light away from each other. The shape of the 3d space, that guides the dragons and submarines, is kind of hard to wrap brains around so we use 2d representations. Curves... Like two dips on a graph moving in opposite directions from one another at the speed of light. At the top of each dip is some sphere. Each is released at the same time and rolls to the bottom of their respective dip. Relative to each other, the objects moved faster than light, right? In that case, it doesn't matter. No information is being exchanged. They do not move faster than light in their local system, the dips.
@@Robert_McGarry_Poems Ok, but if your purple polish dragon flies at the speed of light by a intergalactic bus-stop, and at the same the yellow submarine passes your purple polish dragon at the speed of light, then at what speed the yellow submarine passed the intergalactic bus-stop?
They are misunderstanding the relationship between time and light and space. The galaxies are not moving. The space between them is expanding exponentially. Time, light and matter are actually waves reacting to the expansion of nothing. Nothing observable moves everything that is. That is all we can see now.
@@Pobodies_Nerfect Derek is a little arrogant and the fact he's not following Nick on any platforms annoys me because it's passive aggressive narcissism.
No, he made it more complicated than it needed to be. All he needed to say was that space itself can expand faster than light, but light must move within that space at the speed of light.
@@acrobatmapping I understand your point. However, consider most viewers are not actually scientists for a living, and a great deal of stuff that 'goes without saying' for some of us (me sometimes) is not really that clear, and confirming or even explaining in depth (even being a lil' bit redundant sometimes) is actually quite useful for those who grasp the logic but not all the formality ('because Calculus'... ). So, I politely disagree with your general statement. I deem Nick really a positive influence towards understanding in this weird world we live in. Cheers !

You're a rock star in this space, Dude. I didn't understand everything you said here but I'm going to watch the video again and again until it all clicks. Your videos are like a super-rich umami stew of science. Where many other channels use the weak broth of metaphors, you actually explain things in depth and with reference to meaty equations. (Even if, thank god, you don't derive them.) You _really_ answer the questions so we learn something, and that's much appreciated.
I have an analogy which helps me wrap my head around the idea of the expanding universe: I think of it as a raisin bread, or rather, the dough before it's baked. While the dough is rising, the raisins contained within the dough move further apart from each other as a result of the dough expanding, but they don't move with respect to the immediate surroundings.
I don't always agree with conclusions drawn, but i really appreciate how much effort you make to be as correct as possible, especially when it comes to how terms are defined. I find your chanel to be one of the more insightfull science shows around. keep up the good work

Goes to show that I have much to learn, because as we all know, if you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.

Amazing, thanks for really opening up the layers of this question. I enjoyed this, and I also enjoyed Veritasiums’s video. Now I want to learn more about what the history of these two different red shifts.

Another great video Nick. Thanks for this -- it was particularly enlightening (sorry), and I'm really impressed with how the graphics have changed over the years ... much more powerful now.
As many years as I've been learning about and contemplating cosmology, (physical science in general) its always a Science Asylum video that nudges me past a stuck point.
Still loving your channel, especially when things get deep when the dance music kicks in! You still should have way more views and subscribers! Fast-fast 🤗
One thing I should clarify that confused me a lot when I first learned the concept: The co-moving frame isn't just one reference frame. It's a whole set of reference frames at different points in space. Two galaxies spatially distant from each other will have different co-moving frames.
I've just received your book for my 18th birthday! I'm so excited & now revising all my calculus and phisycs knowledge to give it a shot. Let's just hope I'm not too dumb for this. Greetings from Poland:)
"Don't get on my case, ok. I don't get to name these things." Tell me about it! That's how I feel whenever I'm explaining "imaginary" numbers to someone.
This video did a great job helping visualize imaginary numbers and referred to a proposal for renaming them as 'lateral' numbers m.ua-cam.com/video/T647CGsuOVU/v-deo.html
I disagree. I see numbers just as magnitude. I see things like -5 , i i^z as a magintude and some extra information we are giving to a function. example -5 magnitude is 5 and the info (whenever this object encounters a + or - sign use the opposite sign. ) 5i == magnitude is 5 and whenever this object is squared give it a negative sign. of course we can just define any number. Raising i to any power is just dependent on how we define raising power of i. But i don't think we should call them numbers. I see math just as logical operations they are objects we use to represent logic. I don't think of them as numbers. I just see positive rational numbers as numbers. Otherwise why aren't vectors numbers. Because every argument we can use for imaginary number can also be used for vectors
@@pravinrao3669 The word "number" us admittedly vague, but so are lots of words. Try defining "sandwich" or "game" in a way everyone agrees on and you'll see what I mean. But that's not the issue. The issue is that calling them "imaginary" is silly because because it implies they're somehow less "real" than other numbers. It'd be just as silly to call them "imaginary vectors". But we're stuck with the term for historical reasons.
So, basically what is moving faster than light isn't actually moving faster than speed of light. It just seems like that because of scaling factor.... This was a really great video as always!
😊 was observed. So the other kitty of schrodinger inside me was 🥺, gotta feed a hamster. Ooh and I watched many cat videos so when you get cat food ads at youtube too, it was probably this schrodinger cay equation. 🤭
Perfect! Thx for the clarity. Now I understand that it is not an entity has been "pushed" to go faster! It is the more primitive concept of space itself that is taking all the items, at and beyond a critical distance, more and more away from each other at a rate faster than the speed of light!

You surpassed yourself in this one. Answered my questions via Nerd Clone as they came to my mind, gave insights on how the grid connects to special relativity and threw a lil’ jab at veritasium, what’s not to love?
The Science Asylum It's the original meaning, something to with cattle belonging to a certain place. The second, modern, usage means "foreigners have strange ways" or "we don't do things like _that_ around here, thank you very much".
@@FuturePluperfect Yup! It comes from the same root as pecuniary ("having to do with money") on the notion of cattle and other property both being a pecuniary measure of wealth, and peculiar to the owner. "Fee" comes from Old English feoh ("cattle") the same way, and the word cattle itself actually evolved in the other direction.
I have so many questions about Cosmology but I don't even know where to begin. For now I'm just going to keep watching and learning until I know enough to ask a question.
@@TheBrunchina Science Asylum is gently "well, actuallying" Veritasium's video from a few weeks ago "What actually expands in an expanding universe" (i think its that video).
Fascinating. I've heard both that we can't go beyond the speed of light, and that the universe was expanding faster then the speed of light. I've never giving this much thought, so this was a great topic to learn more about.
Love your content man... Your simple way of teaching so called hard concepts in physics through basic conversation is just wow....Surely deserve more subs....
THIS is the answer I've been looking for that nobody could give me! Thank you! This has been driving me nuts! Lol I would've loved to have had a teacher that could explain things in as much detail as you do, make it super easy to understand AND make it entertaining. Your channel is awesome
You open the video thinking you somewhat know the answer Then Nick steps up to the plate and sends you out the stadium A lovely video, I particularly liked the personal referneces and the pace of exposition
I love the fact you like to questioning everything ....and some times it causes disagreement and you are not scared to say that ....you are true brave scientist 😄😄😇
Always love the clarity I get from the asylum. keep up the great work I'll be here for the next one... obeying the laws of causality of course...I would have watched them all by now if I didnt
You're in Dunning-Kruger's Valley of Despair. Same here. It actually means we're progressing in our understanding. Keep it up. The other side of the Valley is worth the climb!
Lol sometimes I get that feeling too but I've increasingly realized that all of physics (and math too) can basically be reduced to two things: entities/objects and their interactions. That's basically it. Seen that way, the universe is just a set of physical objects interacting with each other. The speed of light, or rather, the speed of causality, just happens to be one of the rules of interaction: no objects shall interact with each other faster than c. Galaxies can travel FTL because they're not interacting with each other, but rather with spacetime. But then again, spacetime too can be considered an entity, which should forbid this.....but perhaps we got the rule wrong. Spacetime is a different kind of entity and can interact with the other kinds (matter/energy) at any speeds? But matter/energy can only interact with itself at c. Damn, I see your point 😂
You actually understand the universe well enough, else you'd be dead. It's just that you understand it locally and not cosmologically enough, but it happens to the best minds, so worry not.
@Irish Jester Aren't forces just different ways of interacting with each other? I mean, the strong and weak forces are called interactions for that very reason. EM is just interaction between charged particles through virtual photons and gravity is the interaction between matter/energy and spacetime. I don't see how that negates my point.
I couldn't put it better myself. Every single time before watching señor Lucids vids I'm like "I have a grasp of the thing he'll be talking about" and every single time after señor Lucids fantastic videos reality hits me with: "nope. just nope". Won't stop me from watching but damn...
oh my god dude the segue caught completely by surprise. for a second there I thought you were gonna reveal something even more mind blowing than everything you talked about. nice, very nice.
How is this channel not have 2+ million subscribers during these times! I would have eaten up these videos way back when I was in high school/undergrad!
10:26 this is the reason why I watch your video, there are so many things in the universe that we don't know, ....we can't possibly just simply generalize everything, as if it's a deliberate attempt to fool people there's nothing else beyond that
Ok, so if two things of mass eventually come together over time in space due to their own gravity, doesn't that mean once the universe is done expanding it will all come back together again?
"... some galaxies should be moving away from us faster than light!
But how is that possible?! ..."

The Science Asylum It's the original meaning, something to with cattle belonging to a certain place. The second, modern, usage means "foreigners have strange ways" or "we don't do things like _that_ around here, thank you very much".
@@FuturePluperfect Yup! It comes from the same root as pecuniary ("having to do with money") on the notion of cattle and other property both being a pecuniary measure of wealth, and peculiar to the owner. "Fee" comes from Old English feoh ("cattle") the same way, and the word cattle itself actually evolved in the other direction.
Best smooth ad transition ever, BTW ! ;)
9:06 ADORABLE!!
I have so many questions about Cosmology but I don't even know where to begin. For now I'm just going to keep watching and learning until I know enough to ask a question.
That "fast-fast!" has become a meme
The image of Nick's face firing that off jumps to mind every time I come across something that's quick.
And it makes me smile almost every time
Wait... It did!?
This video is the one that had the most effect on my understanding. It's shocking. 🤯
That Veritasium call out hahaha nice.
pls sir, may i have a crumb of context?
@@TheBrunchina Veritasium recently made a video about these shifts
And Nick disagrees with a point he was trying to make
@@TheBrunchina Science Asylum is gently "well, actuallying" Veritasium's video from a few weeks ago "What actually expands in an expanding universe" (i think its that video).
@@corydharma thanks
Awesome video =D Seriously, one of my favs so far!!
7:59 - A new galaxy materializes right next to us. Quantum Tunneling confirmed.
Came here for this
i noticed that too, they're keep materializing here and there all the time \0/
Boom tube
Fascinating. I've heard both that we can't go beyond the speed of light, and that the universe was expanding faster then the speed of light. I've never giving this much thought, so this was a great topic to learn more about.
E=Mc² : I am the most famous equation .
a²+b²=c² : am i joke to you?
Also quadratic formula (-b±√b²-4ac)/2a : Kids
Love your content man...
Your simple way of teaching so called hard concepts in physics through basic conversation is just wow....Surely deserve more subs....
We needed this so bad ( a new. Video)
Your visualizations are the best!
“Fast Fast” is my favorite youtube phrase. FAST FAST, FAST FAST, FAST FAST! Where is my FAST FAST compilation!?
right??? we desperately need one of those lol
@@mldag1678 we need one and we need it FAST FAST.
Awesome explanation. Learnt a lot this episode.
THIS is the answer I've been looking for that nobody could give me! Thank you! This has been driving me nuts! Lol I would've loved to have had a teacher that could explain things in as much detail as you do, make it super easy to understand AND make it entertaining. Your channel is awesome
Thanks 🤓 I'm glad I could help!
This is something me and my freind are currently in discussion with. Thank you for all the amazing content.
Glad I could add to the discussion 🙂
You open the video thinking you somewhat know the answer
Then Nick steps up to the plate and sends you out the stadium
A lovely video, I particularly liked the personal referneces and the pace of exposition
I love the fact you like to questioning everything ....and some times it causes disagreement and you are not scared to say that ....you are true brave scientist 😄😄😇
Please make sure that before we point a laser to the Moon that we have set laser to stun.
That's phaser, not laser. Lasers don't have a "stun" setting.
@@kristyanne719 Live long and prosper
Always love the clarity I get from the asylum. keep up the great work I'll be here for the next one... obeying the laws of causality of course...I would have watched them all by now if I didnt
this channel makes me question my true amount of scientific literacy, aka i feel too dumb to understand wtf the universe is
You're in Dunning-Kruger's Valley of Despair. Same here. It actually means we're progressing in our understanding. Keep it up. The other side of the Valley is worth the climb!
Lol sometimes I get that feeling too but I've increasingly realized that all of physics (and math too) can basically be reduced to two things: entities/objects and their interactions. That's basically it. Seen that way, the universe is just a set of physical objects interacting with each other. The speed of light, or rather, the speed of causality, just happens to be one of the rules of interaction: no objects shall interact with each other faster than c. Galaxies can travel FTL because they're not interacting with each other, but rather with spacetime. But then again, spacetime too can be considered an entity, which should forbid this.....but perhaps we got the rule wrong. Spacetime is a different kind of entity and can interact with the other kinds (matter/energy) at any speeds? But matter/energy can only interact with itself at c. Damn, I see your point 😂
You actually understand the universe well enough, else you'd be dead. It's just that you understand it locally and not cosmologically enough, but it happens to the best minds, so worry not.
@Irish Jester Aren't forces just different ways of interacting with each other? I mean, the strong and weak forces are called interactions for that very reason. EM is just interaction between charged particles through virtual photons and gravity is the interaction between matter/energy and spacetime. I don't see how that negates my point.
I couldn't put it better myself. Every single time before watching señor Lucids vids I'm like "I have a grasp of the thing he'll be talking about" and every single time after señor Lucids fantastic videos reality hits me with: "nope. just nope". Won't stop me from watching but damn...
Good job for correcting that!
Love your easy explanations, and they are packed with info.
oh my god dude the segue caught completely by surprise. for a second there I thought you were gonna reveal something even more mind blowing than everything you talked about. nice, very nice.
Light: Speed limit ⭕
Entanglement: Hold my photons 🚫
But it's not communicating any information to vioate causality
Its all probabilistic, in classical sense also it holds
How is this channel not have 2+ million subscribers during these times! I would have eaten up these videos way back when I was in high school/undergrad!
You know Nick I was preparing to go to sleep. But you son of a gun just upped another mind-blowing video!
Great video, after watching your video after the Veritasium, the how of those 2 different redshifts work are clear.
Do the Local Motion with me! (Sorry couldn't resist)
Now that you can do it, let's all expand now
(come on baby, do the local motion)
I was thinking this during the entire production of this video.
Wow, I enjoyed these explanations. I will have to view and listen to this video more times for some things to sink in. 😲👍
We know who He Who Must Not Be Named is!
I love the "We are the exception" Mongolian T-shirt!!! :) Crash Course is awesome just like this show.
This video was amazing as always.
And I'm waiting for more videos like a podcast similar to that you'd upload with your wife. 😁
10:26 this is the reason why I watch your video, there are so many things in the universe that we don't know, ....we can't possibly just simply generalize everything, as if it's a deliberate attempt to fool people there's nothing else beyond that
Ok, so if two things of mass eventually come together over time in space due to their own gravity, doesn't that mean once the universe is done expanding it will all come back together again?
It _wants_ to, but the expansion is too fast. The expansion overpowers gravity at the largest scales.
Very clear explanation. Thanks!
