Well sort of true. The "Nothing" is actually magnetic fields that we can't simply see. What makes them is still the mystery. But true, only 7% of the Universe is made up of Atoms. Tesla called space "Ether". And said it is actually "something". Sadly, the government scooped up all of his notes so now we will never know.
@@karensagal8230like Scott said above, that is the micro world. It's almost a different realm, ruled by possibly different laws than ours (the quantum realm and quantum physics). Relatively speaking planets have lots of matter. Space is where teal emptiness is, interplanetary, interstellar, and intergalactic space is where true empty is. And galactic voids are even more so that.
I think whatever lives there doesn't want to be stared at or bothered by every emerging child race yelling hello at them in ignorant hillbilly accents.
That void is no mystery. Enterprise entered the void during one of its charting missions where Captain Jean Luc Piccard and his crew encountered "Nagilum". You guys really need to pay attention to the real physics.
Space is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mindbogglingly big it is. I mean you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.
And the speed of light is slow as molasses in January (in the NH, of course). Light takes a hundred thousand years just to cross our ordinary galaxy-and a void 780 million light years across? Fergit about it. That takes way too long.

The Boötes Void is theorized to have formed from the merger of smaller voids, much like the way in which soap bubbles coalesce to form larger bubbles. This would account for the small number of galaxies that populate a roughly tube-shaped region running through the middle of the void. Also, the picture you often see of the Boötes Void, is not a picture of the void. What is often shown is a very dark gas cloud, a nebula, covering the background stars known as Barnard 68. An actual image of bootes void is not directly observable.
Look at a satellite picture taken at dark of North America, we have big voids and small voids between our cities too. And a web of roads to connect them.

Does it not make more sense that the void was generated because its matter, over the eons, migrated via gravity to the superclusters which surround it? I understand the desire to attribute it to the currently popular, highly theoretical "dark energy", but...
Kinda like the still popular big bang that isn't where it's supposed to be and never was... can't make a finite model for an infinite reality, but they continue to try 😂
Would be difficult I think for even superclusters to be able to gravitationally attract matter and clear out that big of a diameter that is the void, and it’s not completely empty there are a few galaxies in the Bootes
But Boötes has no umlaut. That, my friend, is a dieresis, and is in fact legal to use in English. For instance, I routinely use it in words like coöperate and reëxamine, as I think it makes a lot more sense than the common approach of inserting a hyphen, as in co-operate and re-examine, or leaving them unmodified, which is unfortunately ambiguous in words like coop (a house for chickens) and coöp (short for coöperative.) Anyway, I said all that to say this: there’s no excuse (short of naïveté) for English-speaking astronomers to be afraid of diacritic marks, because we all write using the same computer hardware!

The actual situation in astrophysics is first that we have no proven idea of what dark energy is or whether it even existsand secondly we can't even prove dark matter exist as all of the experiments hus far have been unable to produce even the minutest bit of it. We have now finally shown real evidence that the expansion of the universe is not uniform in all directions and that has also raised very serious questions about some of the basic assumpions about the big bang theory as it is currently understood. When you do your program you should not make assertions about things we are still very uncertain about.
The whole of cosmology is in over their heads. When you have to create a theory to patch a hole in another theory, you need your head examined. Keep going and you run into absurdity. The Universe is Electric.
Basically, dark matter is a fudge factor because general relativity falls apart outside of the solar system or systems with similar velocity at least. Basically, when gravitational lensing showed higher than predicted force, instead of saying what's wrong with GR ? They said, " must be an invisible matter present" Sadly, the AI I was using to do the modified calculations that proved it had a digital heart attack at the initial results and now flat out refuses to calculate modified versions of GR 😮 😂
Have you seen Rupert Sheldrake's banned TED talk? He goes over scientific assumptions that haven't been proven. He talks about the assumption of uniformity among a dozen or so other things. Very mind stretching.
That would explain the Fermi Paradox (aliens probably aren't gonna go into black holes) and exponential expansion of the universe (relativistic time and all that). That being said, I'm certainly no astrophysicist 😂
But there can be no evidence you cannot actually go out and explore you have no real evidence of distance only speculation can you find your science keeps dropping you in the ditch but that's okay cuz you don't mind bringing everybody else in with it and make them knuckle under
Vote Biden! (or Sunak, or Macron) The economy is roaring, isn't it? The people who got us into this mess are the best and smartest and will surely get us out of this mess, won't they?
Maybe these voids seem so big because we are not actually seeing enough of the universe. Maybe on the true scale of the universe these voids are as tiny as our earth, in comparison.
In my opinion... I have always thought that the Voids were where the center of a Multiple Singularity was centered. The Mass Strings were from where the Waves from Singularities intersected.
0:42 says you. It's significant enough to have life teeming on it, be in the perfect place for every aspect of life as we know it. And for it to be insignificant, life would also be meaningless, which it is not.
There's a bajillion planets just in this galaxy, and there are a bajillion galaxies just in the visible universe. You really think only ours has life? That's like grabbing a cup of water from the ocean and saying "it has no fish in it, so there must be no fish in the ocean".
the voids aren't expanding under any sort of growing "dark matter", material is coalescing via gravity and electricity/magnetism while also expanding. The voids happen naturally. There isn't even a reason to suspect dark matter is real based on any observations. The only cosmologists who are confused by the current data never take electricity or magnetism into account and work solely off gravity based models.
In a shared environment of millions and millions of animals it is ridiculous to assume only one species developed language, culture, art, religion etc. And yet...
Indeed. It is not as if we did not postulate that advanced civilizations would use the complete energy output of stars or even galaxies. We just don't see something in visible light and voila, we think that there is nothing.
You not knowing that humans discovered non-human languages (like how other mammals communicate) does not mean that "we" think only humans developed it. Language and culture are not unique to humans. Art and religion arguably is, because, well, those are quite high cognitive functions, and humans are the most cognitive species on Earth, so it's not surprising we developed the best and worst aspects of it first.

These subjects are always interesting to think about but if a person continues to depend fully on the theories of modern science then they will be chasing their tail forever drowning in a sea of theories. Of course science is always quick to magnify an image on a screen, label it in some way then talk endlessly about it like they understand it. These mysterious things were understood many thousands of years ago and described in detail in the oldest books on the planet, but the arrogance of the modern materialist scientists led them to mock the information because it was presented in a strange format that they couldnt understand and it didnt fit into their limited understanding of humanitys past or their viewr of "reality". What we can see or even use instruments to study is one layer of a system a lot older, larger and much more complex than what we have access to. If you reach a point where most of what you discover has to be labelled "Dark Energy" and cant be visually seen or examined with your most sophisticated instruments then common sense should tell you that theres more to this than just our layer of "reality".
Dark energy is more than an enigma it is an unproven thought used to explain what is not known and one might just as well use the term Captain Kangaroo! I find it distressing that the term is being bandied about like it is a real proven object of reality rather than the theoretical invention stemming from ignorance!
@@katherineg9396Ok then, elaborate. Because as far as I know within our cosmology community no one just assumes dark energy is the answer, it just happens to be the best thing we got right now. But hey, maybe a couple of youtube commenters with a pretentious vocabulary can clear it up for us hm?
So I'm just a big old dumb dumb, but wouldn't the positive energy of galaxies push each other away akin to putting two magnets against either on the positive side
0:47 I thought everywhere was essentially the center of the universe seeing as everything is believed to have originated from a singularity. In the same spirit as the paradigm shift from the Ptolemaic model, aren't we falling into the same bias in assuming that something (matter, energy) is the norm and that nothing (void) is strange rather than vice-versa?
Your void is an apparition. The extragalactic medium is moving away from the observer near, at or above the local speed of light. This prevents the path of light. An event horizon is a similar apparition.
How is the KDC void 2 billion light years across, we're in the middle of it, and yet the great nothing void is 730 million miles from us, located roughly in the middle of the KDC void? And how is the Botes void bigger than the KDC void if the KDV void is 2 billion light years across the Botes is only hundreds of millions of light years across?
Consider the utter massiveness of space where something to be considered “close” is still billions of miles away, I’m a bit confused as to why a void so large would truly be considered strange? Though I’m no physician, so I’m probably over simplifying an extremely complex issue. If someone who knows what I’m getting at and has an answer, I’d appreciate it!
The universe isn't really accelerating it's just that when you look twice as far away it appears as though things are moving away twice as fast, or 4 times further is moving four times as fast until you reach the end of the observable. Space time is curved and if you travel in the same direction long enough and fast enough you'd end up at the same galaxy you started in.
What if our understanding of space and time is constrained by our rudimentary imaginations? What if the universe, as we perceive and comprehend it, is beyond imagination? Why do we insist on defining a start and an end to everything? Consider the possibility that everything has always existed and will continue to exist. What if we inhabit just a minuscule fragment of this immensity, merely passing through a transient phase of matter and energy? Can you imagine?
Wait, the universe expands faster in a void? My understanding (limited, admittedly) is that the universe is expanding uniformly at the same rate everywhere. An accelerating rate, but the same rate across the universe. Is that wrong? I could understand how that expansion is masked by the way large bodies are more attracted towards one another than they are responsive to the expansive properties of dark matter, and how that masking would be minimised in voids due to the (relative) lack of gravitational interference. But "masking" the expansion isn't the same as slowing/accelerating the pace, surely? Or am I missing something?
On matter being somewhat evenly distributed at large scales, this could actually still be true, the observable universe is just the area of the universe we can detect, we have no idea how much larger the universe actually is. The massive voids could turn out to be statistically insignificant compared to the true size of the universe
0:53 very poetic but unfortunately some of what you said was incorrect. In the depths of night, when we gaze up at the sky we don’t see galaxies, because instead just a singular galaxy. There is only one galaxy we can see with the naked eye and that’s the Andromeda galaxy. All other starts we can look at with our eyes are in the galaxy of stars we inhabit.
Imagine living in that one, isolated galaxy in the middle of the void, and assuming that the darkness around you is all that exists. The Milky Way will be in a similar spot once the Universe expands more, which is the scariest part. One day all of space will look this empty.
I do belive that the more one looks the more there is nothing out there. Our local mass area is pretty isolated and there are others far fair far way. But basically there is really nothing out there except a huge huge huge number of galaxies relatively small compared to space itself. Good stuff scary too.
I don't care to be around when they void the void (flush). How does a void get voided? Nature keeps it simple but complex to understand. We use TP, but it uses strings (which aren't too easy to understand, either).
Maybe it was some kind of black hole, or some spot of celestial bodies bouncing of one another and destroying everything there, then flinging the rest out in space?
I played golf for long enough to witness the disappearance of balls that were witnessed/observed by the parties playing, including myself, to land on a green or an apron of a green and when arriving at the green, by foot, the ball wasn't there. It had clearly vanished. I can conclude that this phenomonon of vanishing golf balls was due to portals or miniature black holes, possible. The mind boggles.
Honestly, if we as humanity learn that there is a cosmic event that will destroy our planet/solar system/galaxy in an instant. What can we do? No sense in being scared
It's like Doc Brown said. If Jennifer saw her future self she could either simply pass out or two, the encounter could create a time paradox, the results of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space time continuum, and destroy the entire universe! Granted, that's a worse case scenario. The destruction might in fact be very localized, limited to merely our own galaxy.
So the void having improperly dispersed matter could actually be the cause of an intelligent life perhaps? Not thst they would still exist, but maybe thst they did?
The fact we’re in a void is probably the reason we get to exist in the first place and haven’t been filtered out by nature yet.

Basically, dark matter is a fudge factor because general relativity falls apart outside of the solar system or systems with similar velocity at least.
Basically, when gravitational lensing showed higher than predicted force, instead of saying what's wrong with GR ? They said, " must be an invisible matter present"
Sadly, the AI I was using to do the modified calculations that proved it had a digital heart attack at the initial results and now flat out refuses to calculate modified versions of GR 😮 😂
Have you seen Rupert Sheldrake's banned TED talk? He goes over scientific assumptions that haven't been proven. He talks about the assumption of uniformity among a dozen or so other things. Very mind stretching.
What makes you think we're not already in a black hole
This
That would explain the Fermi Paradox (aliens probably aren't gonna go into black holes) and exponential expansion of the universe (relativistic time and all that).
That being said, I'm certainly no astrophysicist 😂
The lack of positive evidence?
But there can be no evidence you cannot actually go out and explore you have no real evidence of distance only speculation can you find your science keeps dropping you in the ditch but that's okay cuz you don't mind bringing everybody else in with it and make them knuckle under
@@EskWIRED you have evidence to argue we aren’t?
Earth is the centre of humanity. That makes it special.

"Void" reminds me of the old Domino's Pizza ad "Avoid the Noid."
Lol wtf. I want some dominos
Saying our galaxy is one of billions is technically true, but really undersells how many galaxies there are. Up to 2 trillion is the current estimate
Not as big a void as the one in my wallet! 😂

Hahaha I could start a UA-cam channel and never run out of content covering the deep void in my wallet!
@Gabor.P. Biden’s brain is negative mass lol
The question is, was it always empty or did someone do something to make it empty?
Maybe these voids seem so big because we are not actually seeing enough of the universe. Maybe on the true scale of the universe these voids are as tiny as our earth, in comparison.
point
That’s what I think as well. It’s all just a question of scale.
In my opinion...
I have always thought that the Voids were where the center of a Multiple Singularity was centered. The Mass Strings were from where the Waves from Singularities intersected.
0:42 says you. It's significant enough to have life teeming on it, be in the perfect place for every aspect of life as we know it. And for it to be insignificant, life would also be meaningless, which it is not.
Says you. LMAO Life has whatever meaning each of us gives it. Congratulations on totally missing the point.
@@davidblackburn3396for real though
Hey there… I’ve got a bridge to sell you
There's a bajillion planets just in this galaxy, and there are a bajillion galaxies just in the visible universe. You really think only ours has life? That's like grabbing a cup of water from the ocean and saying "it has no fish in it, so there must be no fish in the ocean".
Your logic is faulty
The void that surrounds us offers us protection. Hiding from the nids is about all we can hope for

I don’t know what that means but it’s funny just the same.
My peeps👆
the voids aren't expanding under any sort of growing "dark matter", material is coalescing via gravity and electricity/magnetism while also expanding. The voids happen naturally. There isn't even a reason to suspect dark matter is real based on any observations. The only cosmologists who are confused by the current data never take electricity or magnetism into account and work solely off gravity based models.
In a shared environment of millions and millions of animals it is ridiculous to assume only one species developed language, culture, art, religion etc.
And yet...
Indeed. It is not as if we did not postulate that advanced civilizations would use the complete energy output of stars or even galaxies. We just don't see something in visible light and voila, we think that there is nothing.
You not knowing that humans discovered non-human languages (like how other mammals communicate) does not mean that "we" think only humans developed it. Language and culture are not unique to humans. Art and religion arguably is, because, well, those are quite high cognitive functions, and humans are the most cognitive species on Earth, so it's not surprising we developed the best and worst aspects of it first.

Unless you're a pure existentialist information can be "known" indirectly.
How did Barnard 68 become the representation of the Booties Void this is a molecular cloud.
My mind dwarfs the Bootes Void by many orders of magnitude. Wrap your heads around that my friends .
Do not be embarrassed by your mistakes. Nothing can teach us better than our understanding of them. This is one of the best ways of self-education.

“Although the theories we’ve taken for granted for a century keep being consistently unproven, we still confidently know that there is no God”.
These subjects are always interesting to think about but if a person continues to depend fully on the theories of modern science then they will be chasing their tail forever drowning in a sea of theories. Of course science is always quick to magnify an image on a screen, label it in some way then talk endlessly about it like they understand it. These mysterious things were understood many thousands of years ago and described in detail in the oldest books on the planet, but the arrogance of the modern materialist scientists led them to mock the information because it was presented in a strange format that they couldnt understand and it didnt fit into their limited understanding of humanitys past or their viewr of "reality". What we can see or even use instruments to study is one layer of a system a lot older, larger and much more complex than what we have access to. If you reach a point where most of what you discover has to be labelled "Dark Energy" and cant be visually seen or examined with your most sophisticated instruments then common sense should tell you that theres more to this than just our layer of "reality".
So what should we do? Take another hit on the bong?

@@ianjones9498 and you pronounce all this without a shred of evidence,sources and or qualifications would help.
So many words and yet you said nothing.
Not one astronomer saying why theyre terrified or a reason to be.
Dark energy is more than an enigma it is an unproven thought used to explain what is not known and one might just as well use the term Captain Kangaroo! I find it distressing that the term is being bandied about like it is a real proven object of reality rather than the theoretical invention stemming from ignorance!
I agree, but don't insult Captain Kangaroo.
@@katherineg9396Ok then, elaborate. Because as far as I know within our cosmology community no one just assumes dark energy is the answer, it just happens to be the best thing we got right now. But hey, maybe a couple of youtube commenters with a pretentious vocabulary can clear it up for us hm?
So I'm just a big old dumb dumb, but wouldn't the positive energy of galaxies push each other away akin to putting two magnets against either on the positive side
4:35 Billions of years ago the matter in the universe was almost perfectly uniform... 🤔 Now how do you know this if you were not there?
For thought and discussion, in relation to the universe where is the spirit world?
probably Gods place to sleep without all that light everywhere
0:47 I thought everywhere was essentially the center of the universe seeing as everything is believed to have originated from a singularity. In the same spirit as the paradigm shift from the Ptolemaic model, aren't we falling into the same bias in assuming that something (matter, energy) is the norm and that nothing (void) is strange rather than vice-versa?
Your void is an apparition. The extragalactic medium is moving away from the observer near, at or above the local speed of light. This prevents the path of light. An event horizon is a similar apparition.
How is the KDC void 2 billion light years across, we're in the middle of it, and yet the great nothing void is 730 million miles from us, located roughly in the middle of the KDC void? And how is the Botes void bigger than the KDC void if the KDV void is 2 billion light years across the Botes is only hundreds of millions of light years across?
Consider the utter massiveness of space where something to be considered “close” is still billions of miles away, I’m a bit confused as to why a void so large would truly be considered strange? Though I’m no physician, so I’m probably over simplifying an extremely complex issue. If someone who knows what I’m getting at and has an answer, I’d appreciate it!
The universe isn't really accelerating it's just that when you look twice as far away it appears as though things are moving away twice as fast, or 4 times further is moving four times as fast until you reach the end of the observable. Space time is curved and if you travel in the same direction long enough and fast enough you'd end up at the same galaxy you started in.
What if our understanding of space and time is constrained by our rudimentary imaginations? What if the universe, as we perceive and comprehend it, is beyond imagination? Why do we insist on defining a start and an end to everything? Consider the possibility that everything has always existed and will continue to exist. What if we inhabit just a minuscule fragment of this immensity, merely passing through a transient phase of matter and energy? Can you imagine?
Wait, the universe expands faster in a void? My understanding (limited, admittedly) is that the universe is expanding uniformly at the same rate everywhere. An accelerating rate, but the same rate across the universe. Is that wrong?
I could understand how that expansion is masked by the way large bodies are more attracted towards one another than they are responsive to the expansive properties of dark matter, and how that masking would be minimised in voids due to the (relative) lack of gravitational interference.
But "masking" the expansion isn't the same as slowing/accelerating the pace, surely? Or am I missing something?
Bro LITERALLY 1 MINUTE INTO IT and you roll an ad, have you no shame sir?
On matter being somewhat evenly distributed at large scales, this could actually still be true, the observable universe is just the area of the universe we can detect, we have no idea how much larger the universe actually is. The massive voids could turn out to be statistically insignificant compared to the true size of the universe
I'm just glad for the existence of Boöties >.>

Any of us can achieve virtue, if by virtue we merely mean the avoidance of the vices that do not attract us.
0:53 very poetic but unfortunately some of what you said was incorrect. In the depths of night, when we gaze up at the sky we don’t see galaxies, because instead just a singular galaxy. There is only one galaxy we can see with the naked eye and that’s the Andromeda galaxy. All other starts we can look at with our eyes are in the galaxy of stars we inhabit.
Imagine living in that one, isolated galaxy in the middle of the void, and assuming that the darkness around you is all that exists. The Milky Way will be in a similar spot once the Universe expands more, which is the scariest part. One day all of space will look this empty.
Nothing comes something, and that something was given intelligence and purpose Todo what it does
We know things while we're here, but we didn't know anything before we got here and will know nothing again once we leave.
"Though in truth, language falls short in capturing the magnitude of this nothingness." - Quote describing my personal life.
If you're in a bad situation, don't worry it'll change. If you're in a good situation, don't worry it'll change.
I do belive that the more one looks the more there is nothing out there. Our local mass area is pretty isolated and there are others far fair far way. But basically there is really nothing out there except a huge huge huge number of galaxies relatively small compared to space itself. Good stuff scary too.
I don't care to be around when they void the void (flush). How does a void get voided? Nature keeps it simple but complex to understand. We use TP, but it uses strings (which aren't too easy to understand, either).
Why do we see a 2D layer Web while the universe is 3D?
Just because we can't see anything doesn't mean there is nothing there
Dark Energy is the background snot in the massive sneeze we are currently living in.
what's the hollow center of the universe called?
Maybe it was some kind of black hole, or some spot of celestial bodies bouncing of one another and destroying everything there, then flinging the rest out in space?
I say we are the center of the universe and we can continue to claim that until someone comes along and proves otherwise.
How do we know it's nothingness and not just so far away our eyes can't pick up the light?
I played golf for long enough to witness the disappearance of balls that were witnessed/observed by the parties playing, including myself, to land on a green or an apron of a green and when arriving at the green, by foot, the ball wasn't there. It had clearly vanished. I can conclude that this phenomonon of vanishing golf balls was due to portals or miniature black holes, possible. The mind boggles.
Looks like we're, maybe?, cells in the Cosmic body. What are voids within this 'body'?
Honestly, if we as humanity learn that there is a cosmic event that will destroy our planet/solar system/galaxy in an instant. What can we do? No sense in being scared
It's like Doc Brown said. If Jennifer saw her future self she could either simply pass out or two, the encounter could create a time paradox, the results of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space time continuum, and destroy the entire universe! Granted, that's a worse case scenario. The destruction might in fact be very localized, limited to merely our own galaxy.
So the void having improperly dispersed matter could actually be the cause of an intelligent life perhaps? Not thst they would still exist, but maybe thst they did?
Why is it, that every time someone makes videos about the Bootes Void, they always use an image of the nebula Barnard 68 as a thumbnail?
