As the 19th century came to a close, physicists were feeling pretty satisfied with the state of their science. The great edifice of physical theory seemed complete. A few minor experiments remained to verify everything. Little did those physicists know that one of those experiments would bring the entire structure crashing down paving the way for the physics revolution of the 20th century.

The Luminiferous Aether is such a badass name. We need more names like that in science.
Now is called photon field
The Michelson-Morley Interferometer. Also known as 'Steampunk LIGO'.
Or LIGO is cyberpunk michealson-Morley interferometer
Imagine if they accidentally detected a black hole merger.
@RomanK FM T.V. kind of, and yes? And why on Earth is it up to Physicists to find these again? I think you got your basic sciences classes mixed up way back in middle school ._.
@@beskamir5977 Then we would be probably dead, because that merger would have to be very very close...probably in our solar system.

Both have currently viable treatments which can limit the danger of those illnesses, antivirals in HIV's case and ventilators + antivirals in covid's case.
Whenever I hear of the luminiferous aether, it feels like some magical concept that probably exists in some parallel universe. The kind of universe where the British Empire ended up conquering the cosmos with fusion-steam trains
Ha, nice! I love concepts that sound just sciency enough to pass for quality scifi, and history and myth are great sources for stuff to use.
The concept reminds me most of the Pale from Disco Elysium.
This could be a hit show on Netflix
So Sunless Skies?
Are you on drugs ? Space-warp and expansion is a magical concept, lmfao !
"Lumineferous Aether" does still make for a pretty sick wifi name.
It's also the namesake of (A)ethernet, so the concept lives on in the world of networking.

I Agree. Here is why: The Bożeon. The Paper Titled "The Principles of Nature: Bożeon Flows, Density Gradients, and Orientation" will begin to make Everything Right to be published in the next year or two (sad face). Pending inclusion of experimental works of about ~20 other Physicists who have proved on their own through various papers that Bożeon Flows explain all aspects of Nature. They use PC words like "quantum superfluid" and "Dark Energy" but they are Bożeon Flows. The "The Principles of Nature: Bożeon Flows, Density Gradients, and Orientation" is the result of decades of "thought experiments" about the Nature of Everything. Essentially the goal was to explain All of Nature starting with a basic TENET (Nolan Rocks) and Rebuild the Laws of Nature starting with "First Principles" (Musk Rocks) to explain what we know as the Laws of Physics. In the end, Our Understanding of Nature Changes Everything! I will give you a glimpse into some of the basic tenets and the current conclusion. Proof and Rationale for the Conclusion will have to wait! QUESTION: What is the Fabric of the Universe and how does it explain the Principles of Nature? FINAL ANSWER: There is only one "field" (more like surface-less ocean) and only one "God Particle" (The Bożeon) ("God Particle" in Polish after the Polish-American Physicist who proposed the Bożeon) that flow within the "ocean" or "field", your choice. All other known "fields" and particles are made up of flows of Bożeons within this “Ocean”. You are made of it (Matter), and you are floating in it (Absolute Vacuum Space filled with Bożeons). BASIC TENETS: [1] ALL FORCES ARE LOCAL (all forces are caused by local collisions). [2] SPACE IS INVARIANT (you cannot bend space, you can only bend things within a space). [3] TIME IS INVARIANT (you cannot bend time, you can only bend things within a time). [4] YOU CANNOT BEND OR WARP SPACE OR TIME UNLESS YOU ARE "DR. STRANGE" OR "DR. WHO". [0] THERE ARE MORE, BUT THAT'S ENOUGH FOR NOW, DON'T YOU THINK! Obviously this means "RELATIVITY IS BUNK", but that proof, although well known now, will not be public till the paper is released. So Bożeons, what are they? Space is a complete empty vacuum filled with Bożeons. A Small Particle whose shape is unknown but speculated to be one of a suggested class of elongated tetrahedrons on the order of the Planck Length wide size wise. The Bożeon's geometric shape similar to the Helium-4 nucleus (but elongated and off center moment of inertia to explain "electric field polarization" - Bożeon Orientation). "Magnetic fields" are simply Bożeon Flows. Flows out of North into South on a Magnet. Photons are Bożeon flows that follow the Bose-Einstein Photon Momentum Wave Equation. One Central forward flowing vortex of Bożeon Flow and 4 Vortex Back Flows of Bożeons. And several smaller outer Flows. A Photon is λ Thick and 2 λ Wide. The internal structure of a Photon is made up of Bożeon Flows that satisfy both the Bose-Einstein Momentum Wave Function AND the Boson Wave Function. The volume of the Photon is directly proportional to it's wavelength. Yes Photons have a specific volume (im lookin at the Photon Volume function now folks). Photons ARE NOT singularities that experience no space or time! Period! Singularities Violate the BASIC TENETS OF NATURE! Electrons are similar to Photons in that they are Bożeon Flows but the summed momentum of all Bożeon flows do not allow it to travel at the speed of light. My favorite part about Bożeon Flows is it exactly explains gravity without magic. It explains Vacuum Energy (Zero Energy) is just Bożeons in a space with a density gradient toward the source, usually matter, which is also made of Bożeons. Coalescence. The collisions of the Bożeon Flow in Matter with the Polarized Bożeon Gradient in the "Vacuum" causes a net force in the direction of greater Bożeon density. THIS IS GRAVITY! A local collision of Bożeons in Free Space transferring momentum to other Bożeons in the Matter causing a net force and acceleration toward the greater Bożeon density. (Bożeon Collisions Are 100% elastic, no losses, conservation of energy). "Gravity" should be called "Coalescence" from now on! There are about ~20 physicists I have found that have the mathematical pieces of the puzzle ... and I plan to publish the paper in the next 2 years proving that ~~billions of Bożeons make up Photons and Electrons and All Particles and they Fill The Vacuum of Space (you guys call it Dark Energy). By end of next year not only will we show how Photon Bożeon Flows keep a Photon in motion but also why all the classical experiments like the single and double slit experiment are explained. Diffraction is caused by the momentum in the Particles Bożeon Flows being altered by the Bożeons in the side of the slit wall Matter as it impacts it. The change in the momentum of the Bożeon Flow within the Photon causes the change in direction and perfectly explains (math) the diffraction pattern to a 'T'. Einstein's Photon Clock Is a Lie. No one has ever explained a Photon Clock Correctly. Soon You Will See How Photon Clocks Actually Work (or Don't). No Warped Space Time. (Sorry Matt O'Dowd)(Matt O'Dowd Rocks Most), U 2 Joe!

I love hearing about this history, it makes the discoveries of the 20th century much more compelling after knowing the context that led up to them.
I know. So many people today look down on everything that came before and treat it like they where idiots or charlatans just because they didn't have as much information as we do. But there is so much amazing history there, people who risked being tortured and burned alive just to write and save books filled with information that we couldn't have progressed without. Even though those books contained information about alchemy and magic that doesn't make much sense to people today they where the start of what became science. The people that wroth those books where the great thinkers of their day, many of their ideas where revolutionary. There is a clear progression from what we associate with magic to modern science and we should show more respect for every step of the way to where we are today.
@@daniel4647 A lot of modern science may as well still BE called magic.
@@daniel4647 The way I deal with people like that is that without asking a question you never get an answer but the best is to always question the answers you have. Wrong answers are actually great because it just means you have have learned there is something more there than you first thought.

This is a great reminder that, genius though he was, Einstein didn't come up with his insights on his own: he stood on the shoulders of giants like Lorentz and Maxwell.
Yeah he stole theirs research while they re defined theirs laws to try to explain away Mickelson morely and why it tool him 30 years to come up with general relativity and he left out the part where he was stuck until Lorenz contraction was an idea and it's completely not real and most people have no idea
"Infinity times zero is zero"
Run, the mathematicians are coming for you!
He's referencing the definite form. Indefinite expressions can lead to different results.
I don't understand how it is not zero. Any number, no matter how arbitrarily large, times zero is zero. How does moving to something to big to comprehend make it undefined.
You actually got put in one of his videos!
Yes, I have been shocked by his shortcut like you. ;) But he can't develop each answer as if it had a whole episode for that, I guess...
@@flightlesschicken7769 Let x be arbitrarily large (or negative, doesn't affect argument), as you mention, x * 0 = 0. This an example of a definite form. Indefinites involve limits, and products of values that grow arbitrarily times values that decrease arbitrarily do not necessarily approach zero. Lim x -> inf ((2 * x) + 1) * x^^-1) = 2, for a simple example. This was what Dávid Kerekes was referencing.
It's easy to chide a less informed past upon whose shoulders the present stands. The aether has gotten a bad rap though. Its core notion is that "Nothing" doesn't necessarily mean "no thing". The aether seems to reappear wearing newly styled clothes with each generation of physicists; spacetime fabric, branes, Higgs field, quantum vacuum, dark energy, etc.
You spoke my mind, brother.
None of those things are described the way that the aether was described. Like most things, it was an idea that didn't quite live up to the reality.
Even with that said, the universe turned out to be far stranger than what 19th century scientists thought.
@@brenatevi
Agreed. As understanding increases, the notion of the "aether" has certainly changed. Current researchers would be embarrassed to use the term of course, but the notion that empty space is not empty has remained consistent.
@pyropulse Agreed. The aether carries EM waves; quantum vacuum stuff permits weird things like Hawking radiation to happen
@@brenatevi The predictions made by Lorentz's aether theory are identical to those of special relativity. LET lived up just fine after Poincare fixed it.

Listening to this episode makes me think of modern physics and dark matter + dark energy.
"It's all tied up guys, we just need to detect them" are famous last words
Um, unlike the aether, we have detected dark matter and dark energy. Their effects are as real as the gravitational forces keeping your feet on the ground. We just don't know what causes those effects yet, which is why they have placeholder names. I know a lot of people get confused about the difference, but it's not that hard really.
@RomanK FM T.V. Still, no.
@@EnglishMike still, just as light does indeed have a medium (the EM spectrum) and there is indeed something of space that planets sit in (the fabric of spacetime and the deformations caused by gravity), it's not exactly like the proponents of aether theory were pursuing completely nonsensical things either. They saw light acting like a wave, they saw that gravity propagated somehow. They made a mistake in thinking the two were inherently one and the same medium, but they were observing the effects to quite a high degree of precision for the day.
Nevertheless, it is also incorrect to say "well the aether does actually exist, it's called the EM spectrum". They're similar but distinct things. If we discover the true cause behind the phenomena we've observed and currently attribute to dark energy, dark matter, then people will probably look back on today's physics with similar bemusement. "Oh, they were so close, but still so far", and so forth.
In fact, your comment is almost a tautology. We wouldn't have any theories in the realm of dark matter if we hadn't observed _something_ after all. So saying "we've observed it, we just don't know the underlying cause" is kind of silly. If we didn't observe any such effects, we would have no use for such theories in the first place. They would just be fantasy along the lines of gods or spirits intervening in our fates - and even those were based on observed phenomena. Why is the ocean so rough today? Maybe we've angered Poseidon. Whereas nowadays we have much more in-depth understanding of ocean currents, fluid dynamics, heat exchange, and so on that power the gulf stream and wider worldwide ocean currents, we understand the effects the moon has on tides, weather patterns like El Niño, and so on.
So of course we've observed their effects and are trying to explain them. But the underlying causes may be more numerous or complex, than the names we've currently attributed. They may end up being complications of already-understood forces that require us to rewrite our understanding of them, just as we had to rewrite gravity from a force to a bending of spacetime. That's what's so exciting, any answers we find will inevitably spur on more questions.
@@EnglishMike I thought we have yet to find & understand what Dark matter is. We see an effect and Dark matter is a way to explain that phenomena ( similar to aether), there's also MOND to explain the phenomena but still not successfully. So we test out the theories, search begins; There's a crack in Physics then, & there's a crack in physic's now.
@@EnglishMike Let's be clear: detecting effects and detecting the thing causing those effects are very different. The Michelson-Morey experiment detected Lorentz symmetry, but it that didn't kill the aether at first; it was simply assumed the aether obeyed this odd symmetry. It took Einstein to actually explain that effect, and then several more years before direct evidence could be gathered.
This was a fantastically interesting video. Great job! Also that horse carriage with the rocket was hilarious!
I heard that Christopher Columbus died the same way, still insisting that he had found a shorter rout to India.
Perhaps the most important thing science teaches us is not the rules governing nature, but to never be so certain of our knowledge that we refuse to consider the alternatives.
“A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.” -- Plank.
We used to believe that empty space is empty, but apparently it isn't. Particles pop in and out of existence, and there's an invisible, universe-wide field that gives mass to all matter (Higgs field). It doesn't seem all that different from Aether.
LOL I love that reference to The Fifth Element

To help your learning:
You should say "I hope there aren't many mistakes in my English" -- Mistakes are countable, so we use "many", not "much".
I'm curious what the orientation between them is. Each one has to have blind spots where waves would hit each arm at equal angles, thus registering no comparative difference. I wonder if they can see each others blinds spots.
It it's legible, you're doing fine.
You know, I didn't even notice the English. But I also like to reply to a lot of flat earth comments, and even with English as their only language, you are doing WAY better than most of them. Then again, that is kind of a low bar.

dark matter is probably space(time) itself and the vacuum energy or virtual particle every cubic metre or so has. The more space is curved by matter in large quantities the more space you have and by extension more 'dark matter' is measurable, eg. near galactic central.

A year ago I was a little cryptic I guess?!
To make a long story short the EM "field" is just as Tesla envisioned but he didn't have Bose Einstein Gas/Condensate Theory to support him! Today we do!
The EM "field" is a quantum level "gas" of EM dipoles, actual particles, they are not imaginary! The "God Particle"?!?!,,, sure if it makes the press happy!
This particle looks like a drop with one end more massive than the other. They have a mass of about 10^(-93) kg each and length of the planck length and the half that for the width. During collsions these particles get propelled in the direction of the massive end (North / Positve). The tail is South / Negative at it exierts less vacuum pressure on its surroundings. This is polarity!
There are about 10^(72) EM Kinetic Dipoles or Bożeons per cubic meter of vacuum on Earths surface.
A "Bożeon" means - "God Particle" in Polish after the surname of the conceiver, my father!).
My father actually helped launch the first and last Men to the Moon from inside the Firing Room and he knew Wernher von Braun and Alan Shepard. He was the IBM DDAS Telemetry Network Launch Controller in the Firing Room for Apollo 10, 11, 12, 16, 17, and Skylab 2, 3,and 4. He later helped build Space Shuttle Fight Computers with the father of NASA / Space X Astronaut Doug Hurley at IBM Owego NY. More on Dad at @ProjectApolloFilm . Dad can be seen in the film "Apollo 11" for 1 second in the Firing Room!
They (NASA) knew Gravity was an electromagnetic thing. They knew the EM "field" and gravity were "coupled". In fact they are the exact same thing! There is only one field! Period. The EM Field. All other fields are derivative and that will be coming out this year in both text and video formats!
FYI... The UAPs use EM Field Gas Compression tech (Anti Gravity Drives) built at Skunkworks using the Ning Li Design but with nano superconductors in liquid suspension to condense the EM "gas" around the vessel and then it use the differences in vacuum pressure to propel the craft at 50g's! If u look at the video against the clouds you can see the wavelength of the ~1 meter or 1/2 meter field lines operating at the natural frequency of the EM field, about 75 Mhz Hz. You can also see gravitational lensing about the fringes!
NASA / SDI funded in the 90's they had success 1999 then it converted to a Black Project, under AC Gravity, LLC. Ning Li! 25 plus years ago!
Anyway,
These EM Kinetic Dipoles have mass. They have volume, and Inertia. They carry all momentum in the universe.
There are about 10^(72) dipoles per cubic meter on Earths surface with a combined mass of about 10x(-21) kg/m^3 of vacuum. The solar system has average of 10^(-18) kg of EM Kinetic Dipoles per cubic meter of vacuum. This is dark matter and energy!
The EM "field" is technically a Bose Gas of Bożeons and when compressed a Bose Einstein Condensate forms called Quantum Superfluid that flows within all elementary particles. An electron has about 10^(62) EM Kinetic Dipoles liquified and flowing in the quantum superfluid inside the electron. Same goes for the Photon.
A "green" Photon has a quantum mass of of about ~10^(-36) kg meaning there are about ~~10^(57) dipoles vortexing about inside! Photons have a Q Factor or quality factor that tell you the ratio of dipoles compressed in the photon compared to the vacuum. This Q Factor also gives the Half-life of the photon!
Photons loose energy over time due to EM wave dispersion just like all EM Waves. They actually loose dipoles into the vacuum as they travel. The dipoles evaporate. This is also how blackholes (dark stars) evaporate. 1 EM Kinetic Dipole at a time. Blackholes DARK STARS are particles crushed down to there basic EM Dipoles Particles.
A gamma photon take about 50 billion years to evaporate. This is the reason the visible universe is only 50 billion in any direction. All of the photon outside of the radius evaporate before getting to Earth and become the CMBR (waves of microwaves). The universe is not expanding and has been in steady state a LONG TIME!
The density of dipoles varies inside particles and in vacuum. This density gradient causes ALL FORCES.
Gravity is the force from the transfer of momentum from Vacuum EM dipoles kinetically colliding with YOUR EM Dipoles bound in particles and generating a net force along the EM Kinetic Dipole Mass Density Gradient or what WE CALL DOWN.
We killed Einstein's Photon Clock. Photons do not move sideways. That triangle diagram does not happed. Photons will compress due do drag against the EM Field Dipoles and the photon will get smaller and blue shift and its path will curve exponentially until it straightens into a straight line.
EM KD Theory also explains all phenomena like 2 slit diffraction ...
Too much more to tell so...

"In my own development Michelson’s result has not had a considerable influence. I even do not remember if I knew of it at all when I wrote my first paper on the subject (1905). The explanation is that I was, for general reasons, firmly convinced that there does not exist absolute motion and my problem was only how this could be reconciled with our knowledge of electro-dynamics. One can therefore understand why in my personal struggle Michelson’s experiment played no role or at least no decisive role." − Einstein 1942

@@tylerknight99 No : this video says explicitly that the result of Michelson were not the motivation for Einstein (Maxwell equations problems with the Galilean relativity was) but that they brought two important things to the table : They motivated the invention of the Lorentz transformation which Einstein needed for his relativity, and they created the cracks into the established foundations that allowed a revolutionary idea like Einstein special relativity to be taken seriously.

The "The Principles of Nature: Bożeon Flows, Density Gradients, and Orientation" is the result of decades of "thought experiments" about the Nature of Everything. Essentially the goal was to explain All of Nature starting with a basic TENET (Nolan Rocks) and Rebuild the Laws of Nature starting with "First Principles" (Musk Rocks) to explain what we know as the Laws of Physics. In the end, Our Understanding of Nature Changes Everything! I will give you a glimpse into some of the basic tenets and the current conclusion. Proof and Rationale for the Conclusion will have to wait! QUESTION: What is the Fabric of the Universe and how does it explain the Principles of Nature? FINAL ANSWER: There is only one "field" (more like surface-less ocean) and only one "God Particle" (The Bożeon) ("God Particle" in Polish after the Polish-American Physicist who proposed the Bożeon) that flow within the "ocean" or "field", your choice. All other known "fields" and particles are made up of flows of Bożeons within this “Ocean”. You are made of it (Matter), and you are floating in it (Absolute Vacuum Space filled with Bożeons). BASIC TENETS: [1] ALL FORCES ARE LOCAL (all forces are caused by local collisions). [2] SPACE IS INVARIANT (you cannot bend space, you can only bend things within a space). [3] TIME IS INVARIANT (you cannot bend time, you can only bend things within a time). [4] YOU CANNOT BEND OR WARP SPACE OR TIME UNLESS YOU ARE "DR. STRANGE" OR "DR. WHO". [0] THERE ARE MORE, BUT THAT'S ENOUGH FOR NOW, DON'T YOU THINK! Obviously this means "RELATIVITY IS BUNK", but that proof, although well known now, will not be public till the paper is released. So Bożeons, what are they? Space is a complete empty vacuum filled with Bożeons. A Small Particle whose shape is unknown but speculated to be one of a suggested class of elongated tetrahedrons on the order of the Planck Length wide size wise. The Bożeon's geometric shape similar to the Helium-4 nucleus (but elongated and off center moment of inertia to explain "electric field polarization" - Bożeon Orientation). "Magnetic fields" are simply Bożeon Flows. Flows out of North into South on a Magnet. Photons are Bożeon flows that follow the Bose-Einstein Photon Momentum Wave Equation. One Central forward flowing vortex of Bożeon Flow and 4 Vortex Back Flows of Bożeons. And several smaller outer Flows. A Photon is λ Thick and 2 λ Wide. The internal structure of a Photon is made up of Bożeon Flows that satisfy both the Bose-Einstein Momentum Wave Function AND the Boson Wave Function. The volume of the Photon is directly proportional to it's wavelength. Yes Photons have a specific volume (im lookin at the Photon Volume function now folks). Photons ARE NOT singularities that experience no space or time! Period! Singularities Violate the BASIC TENETS OF NATURE! Electrons are similar to Photons in that they are Bożeon Flows but the summed momentum of all Bożeon flows do not allow it to travel at the speed of light. My favorite part about Bożeon Flows is it exactly explains gravity without magic. It explains Vacuum Energy (Zero Energy) is just Bożeons in a space with a density gradient toward the source, usually matter, which is also made of Bożeons. Coalescence. The collisions of the Bożeon Flow in Matter with the Polarized Bożeon Gradient in the "Vacuum" causes a net force in the direction of greater Bożeon density. THIS IS GRAVITY! A local collision of Bożeons in Free Space transferring momentum to other Bożeons in the Matter causing a net force and acceleration toward the greater Bożeon density. (Bożeon Collisions Are 100% elastic, no losses, conservation of energy). "Gravity" should be called "Coalescence" from now on! There are about ~20 physicists I have found that have the mathematical pieces of the puzzle ... and I plan to publish the paper in the next 2 years proving that ~~billions of Bożeons make up Photons and Electrons and All Particles and they Fill The Vacuum of Space (you guys call it Dark Energy). By end of next year not only will we show how Photon Bożeon Flows keep a Photon in motion but also why all the classical experiments like the single and double slit experiment are explained. Diffraction is caused by the momentum in the Particles Bożeon Flows being altered by the Bożeons in the side of the slit wall Matter as it impacts it. The change in the momentum of the Bożeon Flow within the Photon causes the change in direction and perfectly explains (math) the diffraction pattern to a 'T'. Einstein's Photon Clock Is a Lie. No one has ever explained a Photon Clock Correctly. Soon You Will See How Photon Clocks Actually Work (or Don't). No Warped Space Time. (Sorry Matt O'Dowd)(Matt O'Dowd Rocks Most), U 2 Joe!

I really quite enjoy stories of important null results and fascinating dead ends and how we ended up in them.
Maud Glazbrooke, wrong the results were not null. The Michelson-Morley experiment did in fact proved the earth is a stationary body and the cosmos revolves around it. The scientists of that day did not want to accept that fact so they wholeheartedly accepted Einstein Theory of Relativity to try to explain away a stationary earth. ua-cam.com/video/xRYUAmK-YzE/v-deo.html
@@richardhernandez6937 It was our dear host who called it Null. 11:05 and the idea that anything in the universe is utterly still is too self aggrandizing to be remotely believable. I'm sure lots of math works if you define it to be still, but that's Relativity for you. Everything is relative.
Maud Glazbrooke, no, you need to do a lot of math and have a belief in the Theory of Relativity to make it appear as if the earth is revolving around the Sun. I really enjoy this entertaining video of Dr. Robert Sungenis talk of the science behind a geocentric universe.

"Infinity times zero is zero."
That depends on the context, for example the limit as x goes to inf of x*sin(1/x) is inf*0, but it's actually 1.
0*∞ it's an indeterminate form, it could be whatever we want depending on the function that we're taking the limit of
Yes infinity times zero is undefined
Infinity times zero can yield any real number depending on the context. It could even be infinity if you take the limit as x approaches infinity of x^2 * x^-1.
infinities don't obey algebraic laws as they are not elements of a field
In that case it was not not lim x->0 f(x)*x where lim x->0 f(x)=inf, which would be indeterminate, but lim x->0 infinity*x = infinity
Lmao, I just got a "Quantum Healing" ad before the video.
I got something far worse, an Apple advert.

I love the idea of Einstein visiting Michelson and arguing with him about the existence of Aether (which Micelson's own work help proved). It's beautifully ironic given that Einstein similarly would never accept quantum mechanics.
It seems it is much easier to create a whole new set of laws and understanding than it is to destroy ones own.
Einstein accepted Quantum mechanics just fine. He just felt the QM at the time was an incomplete description of reality.
@@Seagaltalk But the part he rejected was the idea of a probabilistic universe. He thought that one day QM would be superseded by another yet unknown, wholly deterministic theory (like GR).
@@entropy730 Einstein like a good scientist accepted the results of experiment and the evidence for QM what he wasn't so sure about was the interpretation and completeness if it and even today we know QM is incomplete. But Michelson did not accept the scientific evidence he was partially responsible for obtaining, which is unscientific. I just don't see the irony or the beauty. From what I read Michelson had a nervous breakdown over the results which is sad if anything.
@@Seagaltalk OK, I see what you're saying. I did not know the details around Michelson's dissent.
Just to clarify though, my point wasn't that Einstein thought that QM was _incomplete_ (he thought GR was also incomplete), but that the probabilistic nature of the Universe was incorrect. So while he accepted (and accumulated) results of the experiments, he never accepted their _implication_ , that the Universe is fundamentally not deterministic.
I guess maybe it could be a matter of terms: "incomplete" vs "superseded". Is Newtonian Gravity an "incomplete" form of GR, or did GR "supersede" it?
The “Multipass” Fifth Element joke was 10/10.
@XY ZW This reads like something flat-earthian. The example of an experiment disproving an entire paradigm of science and thus causing a paradigm shift depicted in this very video your are commenting under already strongly hints that scientists want to be disproven in order to improve understanding. If you think you can proof general/special relativity wrong, the physics Nobel prize is waiting for you. Don't just say it, show it.
@XY ZW That is not how that works, at all though. Theories aren't "proven", they are used as long as they can until they are disproven. And relativity as a theory has enormous predictive power.
@XY ZW Nobody should be saying it is the "Be all, end all". See Quantum Gravity. But as a vehicle it has been useful in many many different applications. The cases you listed don't necessarily disprove it, just that we may lack the necessary capabilities to gather more data and say definitely what is happening. If science on the way towards ever improving enlightenment discovers that the theory in it's current form doesn't work it gets adapted or it will get exchanged for the next theory until science has honed in on a correct theory of everything.
@@DaCoolX wtf is up with these "electric universe/luminiferous aether" quacks? I've seen three separate people trying to plug their own pseudoscientific theories on this video alone.

It actually was Einstein. The Nobel prize-worthy experiment to prove light waves would come in packages is called the photoelectric effect.

I just wanna say that at late 2018 I decided that I should watch all the vids from this channel. I'm happy to say that I finally caught up now with the current releases. It was a fun ride, this show is a blessing, and I'm looking forward for a greater expanding video catalogue about spacetime.
I imagine some people in the 19th century calmed their nerves at the Luminiferous Aether being disproved by huffing some Ether.
Sir please make a video on Ehrenfest paradox, curved world lines (Schwarzschild metric) and Optical effects of relativity there is no intuitive video about this on UA-cam
I think they had a couple on world lines and flat vs curved space time. I'm not sure if that is what you mean though.
@RomanK FM T.V. No, but there are so many people working on those two things that additional people wouldn't significantly change the timeline involved. It's similar to how giving a scientist 100x more money doesn't make them discover 100x more things.
There's enough people that we can look into different things without neglecting important things. Futher, the different fields of research often overlap and one advancement in one field can apply to other advancements in another field. For example, many of the technologies developed by NASA are also used for hospitals and, you guessed it, treating people with HIV and other ailments.

@RomanK FM T.V. Are you suggesting astrophysicists and cosmologists should stop their work and switch to a different field? Those people know nothing more about medicine or epidemiology than anyone else. Might as well ask why mechanical engineers or musicians are still doing their jobs when there's no cure for HIV yet.

Came looking for the Characters from Genshin Impact(Aether and Lumine). Found “Lumineferous Aether” Instead. Not disappointed though. Good Video man
LMFAO same, i got interested because aether and lumine seem represent space things, just like aria the moon goddess from welkin moon and genshin main menu evening theme 🤣
came here to figure out what Aether is (as an the 5th element) but clicked because of Genshin impact.
Stupid coincidence, but after this video and reading comments on the source of the word "quintessence" I decided to look up "Quinn" as a last name due to a character from a webcomic who was named "Tessa Quinn." While the more general name of "Quinn" doesn't seem to actually be related to the number 5, I was surprised to note "Genshin Impact characters" in the list of categories.
I heard several of them, but your explanation of how LIGO works is most simple and easy to understand yet. Thx
Your videos are always so clear at explaining hard topics.
*Fun Fact!* The Luminiferous Aether directly inspired the name for Quintessence, the name given to a potential field that accounts for Dark Energy, specifically one that can change over time. It is the second most favored explanation for Dark Energy after the Cosmological Constant.
Quintessence is also a cool name they use in the show "The Dragon Prince" for the magic power stored up in living things. (As in "so much quintessence!") I had obviously realised it came from "quintessential" but didn't know until this video that the aether was called it too.
@@kaitlyn__L Other way around, the word Quintessential comes from the idea of Quintessence. Quintessential is an english word that's only a few hundred years old whereas the concept of quintessence is over 2000 years old.

Nice video Matt as always. Glad to see you had your full faculties about you this time (no tipple before recording) 😆
We humans do stand on the shoulders of giants. Michelson-Morley experiment led to the Lorentz transformation and Maxwell's equations which themselves led to Einstein's theories of special and general relativity
No, it is the other way round: Maxwell's equations (1861) predate the Michelson-Morley experiments (1881).

Press F to pay respects to the Luminiferous Aether
Rene Descartes was so smart man. Cartesian planes, systematic scepticism, and first principles. Dude was the ultimate maths philosopher.
Also, time is 3d too (x,y,z,t,t,t). You even get Lorentz equations out of it for particles because some of the "t" dimensions approach 0. time dilation around black holes already proves time has at least 2 dimensions, along with some inevitability such as entropy (beginning > end ,, particle decay or absorption as a time dimension)... (plus the linear time of a clock). No dark matter or dark energy required to fix bad physics. But it has other implications, such as a steady state universe due to asymptotic functions along t,t,t axes.
The END STATE sucks up the beginning state like a durry. A universe popping into existence will know its final state and it is inevitable - whola another axis of TIME
thank you thank you thank you. I have been begging several physics channels for an episode about this ever since the LIGO success. finally. thank you very much.

Thats why sometimes when I hear a crackpot theory, I tend to want to dig more into it. By understanding the line of thought and sometimes just changing the angle of approach, you can get some decent science out of quackery.
@XY ZW The thing youre getting wrong is that the important part is testing your theories. If you think space works like underwear, create test that challenge it, crap in a pair of jeans while in a vacuum or something and see how it spreads. Then take notes, revise, ask others to reenact the experiment see how their results differ and the truth gets narrowed down.
@RomanK FM T.V. Theres a person who was cured of HIV through bone marrow transplant and there are promising treatment for COVID-19 on the way. Why?
@RomanK FM T.V. Shut up bot
@XY ZW there is decent science in a theory that has been tested again and again in multiple ways and keeps making correct predictions. Thats what science is, a theory that holds up to repeatable experiment testing. I don't know why some people have this thing about Tesla, he did some great engineering but most of his theoretical ideas where just wrong. He didn't believe in the electron.
You can also get a decent amount of quackery out of science.

Aw yiss glad to finally learn more about this. The Michelson Morley experiment took place at my alma mater. I'd walk past a replica of it whenever I went to the physics building and my sophomore dorm was called Michelson House. If I recall correctly they had letters between the duo and Einstein on display as well. It was really darn cool being so close to a huge part of astrophysics history :]

"The Luminiferous Aether: primary substance of the universe" (available from Amazon) explains how the aether produces mass, energy, gravity, electricity, magnetism, and light.

Let us also not forget, "Huygens!" - Professor Frink, 1991.

Couldn't it be said that the "fields" in Quntum Field Theory take the place of Aether? They are the place, or "substance" through which the various particles propagate, and, to an extent, are confined to.
i think so.
When the universe was infinitely dense at big bang why didn't it turn into a black hole or just after big bang?
Hmm... I want a video on that question!!!!
Hmm....
That's because all the point had roughty the same mass. You don't just need mass,you need mass differential for black hole.
First consider a black hole. For all intents and purposes it has an infinite density (a point-like singularity) and is surrounded by a vacuum, so the pull of gravity is insurmountable and even light cannot escape.
Now let's compare that to the big bang. For all intents and purposes it was infinitely dense _everywhere_ (an infinitely large singularity). And since there was no difference in density between adjacent regions...
_(drum roll...)_
*The pull of gravity was equal in all directions!*
In order for a black hole to form there needs to be a region outside the dense region that would form the black hole. It must also be possible to find a center of that matter distribution. The early universe was infinite in extent and roughly equally dense everywhere, so there was no way to find a center into which matter could collapse, and there was no "outside" the universe that could be less dense.

It so happened that I've learned about Michelson-Morley experiment while lurking at the livejournal pseudoscience debunking communities back in high school (there still are some aether enthusiasts in Russia, so they were frequently made fun of). I'll admit it wasn't the first thing that came to my mind when LIGO started making news a few years later, but eventually I did have that "waaait a minute, I think I've seen that somewhere before" moment.
However, a question: can there theoretically be some conditions when this mini-LIGO could've detected gravitational waves, whereas the cosmic event would otherwise go generally unnoticed? Like, being straight down south on the Earth's axis. Or that event would have had to happen too close for us to survive it anyway, due to GRB or something?

I'd like to see a double slit experiment done in person where when you record the protons, that the interference pattern then goes away. I'd want to see that happen in person. Are there places around the US that does this experiment?
It's actually not that hard to recreate your own home.
You just need a shoebox, a block of wood with two slits in it, a flashlight, two pieces of polarizing material like the material that polarizing lenses on Modern 3D glasses are made out of and something to record the photons hitting the wall of the shoebox like silver nitrate paint or undeveloped film.
You poke a hole on one of the shoe box and place a flashlight there and the block of wood with two slits in the middle. Turn on the light and focus the beam until you see the interference pattern. And then put the polarizing filters on top of the two slits completely out of phase with each other so that only photons with one spin go out one slit and the other orientation go out the other.
The polarizing light filter should negate the wave interference pattern and give you the "two particles" band.
Easy peasy.
If you put 2 fingers close together very near your eye you see a shadowy outline just outside each finger. The more you close the fingers the more the outlines touch and eventually youll see a black line in the middle, this is not an optical ilusion is the interference visible to the naked eye because light bends at the very edge of your finger. Check the corners of your house , they are darker again because light cant reach the edge perfectly. Another situation you can see is the edge of building walls when you are facing a shadowed wall with the sun in front, look carefully and you will see s light outline at the very edge, again because of the interference at the edge of said wall

One thing that I don´t understand: at time 15:13 you say "infinity times zero is zero". I believe infinity times zero is undetermined.
He's cosmologist. For them pi is exactly equal to 3.
Yes Infinity times zero is undetermined it can be anything. But it doesn't matter the singularity at this point still persists.
@@empireempire3545 Nonsense. In advanced physics, all constants are equal to 1, so pi = 1.
If you add zero infinite times, its still zero. By defenition of multiplication, infinity times zero is zero. Not to be confused with a limit of the product of something aproaching zero and another aproaching infinity, which is undetermined, as you learn in high school maths.
depends on context. math says it's undetermined because infinity times zero by itself has no context of the system it's portraying. you can break down and determine what it is if you have the context and understand where the infinity and zero came from. i.e. it's undetermined, because there is no general solution, but that doesn't mean there is never a solution. a particular infinity multiplied by a particular zero can have a particular answer that can be determined. but in general, it's undetermined because you don't know the specifics and particulars of the context. for example, infinity/infinity is undetermined but if you know the two infinities are the same, then it's one.
So, could the Michelson-Morley Interferometer have detected a gravitational wave if it had the needed conditions to be detected and happened to pass by by sheer coincidence at that exact moment? If it could, how wild it would be to explain it at those days...
Oo. I like this background. Its out of necessity I know, but it is so much more pleasing than the usual black+cosmic backgrounds of the show. That and the natural light really make it easier to listen to long explanations that are a trademark of the show. An interesting learning from lockdown adjustments!
