It was my pleasure to be on this show with Brian Greene
Love you Brian Greene. Thank you for all your effort putting together such amazing events. A true gift to humanity. 🙏
He should keep politics out if science.
@@savage22bolt3299 percent of the time, he does. Don’t get too worked up.
@@savage22bolt32Conversely, too many politicians now keep science out of their politics, placing the safety of our world in danger (anti-vax, climate change denial, etc). The one Brian cited is the poster child and sadly, more are popping up on both sides (like RFK jr).
As though a washed string theorist ‘put this together’. He’s the well paid celebrity to get us laymen watching this, interviewing the folks actually interested in doing science.
1:01:18 pm
When I first started watching Brian Greene on the stream presenting talks on quantum mechanics, physics experiments, he was just about the age of these young scientists. It's a testament to Greene how many audiences he has reached bringing the message of the cosmos to the world.
Thank you Brian Greene for these interviews about JWT and its finds. The effort you made with questions, etc … you’re the best🙏
World science festival is the best forum I've come across. Following it for years. Always more to learn and presented in a wonderful way. Love the way the learned people generously share the knowledge. Thank you WSF. Thank you Brian Greene.
Brian Greene is such a brilliant interviewer - he knows exactly where he wants the conversations to go, because he already knows the subject so thoroughly.....
That feeling when the smartest guys on this planet tell you stories.... I love this channel.
JWST is brilliant! This talk was very interesting too.
Excellent as usual. Brian Greene is such a great communicator/mediator/ and able to explain complex things with ease so anyone can understand.
In such a short time James Webb telescope is already changing our understanding of everything. Cant wait to see what gets confirmed and newly discovered
Agreed 👍🏻 Reading the Elegant Universe was my first introduction to cosmology. He is a great writer/teacher 🤙🏻
this guy either works for the cia or is a member of the nwo criminal cabal syndicate or he's dumb as f not to recognize trump is saving humanity stopping the cabals agenda to over throw the world..
So, is it possible that the universe emerged fully formed from the “big bang”?
❤
I absolutely love that image of Neptune. Its awesome! JWST is a true gift to science.
This channel is some of Brian Greene's best work imho
This channel should have at least 100m subscribers...but nowadays it's more important what the Kardashians do...with all respect.
I look forward to this Festival every year.
Thanks to Brian Greene for asking critical and good questions.. This is just beautiful. BEYOND beautiful!!!.
I was born with many difficulties in my life. Although I am not fully educated, I have a strong love for science and the universe. Thank you for bringing it to me. Love you
I wanted to say thank you for your presentation. You do a great job of making these topics accessible, and approachable to non-scientest. On multiple occasions I've hurd you be self deprecating. Also on multiple occasions I've hurd you express a sincere invitation for anyone to consider the data. You do a great job of interpolating the shop talk of academics and literally bringing it down to earth. I really think that you are opening doors to future generations of scientists by making it more accessible. Thank you, to you and everyone behind the scenes who helps you.
I seriously can't get enough of these incredible discussions! Thank you SO much for sharing, much much appreciated! ❤
I'd also love to see a new Brian Greene book out soon... just sayin 😅 love your books!
Finally WSF is slowly coming back to Face-to-Face. Keep it up!
So far the Best explanation of JWST
Yes - and why IR was so important.
Thank you Professor Greene for another brilliant episode.
No scientific background of my own. Yet having watched all the WSF features, all of the “History of the Universe” and “Kosmos” channel videos I truly applaud the effort and work of these brilliant minds to bring about and share their discoveries with all of Mankind.
Excellent! I can't wait to see the new discoveries.
Stellar, my mind is giggling. Thank you so much. Geraldine
Turn of phrase - rather original. Now to test - said expression. Hee hee.
Since I discovered this channel and many others, Now I am a big fan of UA-cam as a knowledge platform if you find the proper channels. I even have the premium account. Thanks Brian🎉❤
Incredible times, u can have access to knowladge at this level for free. Amazing😊
Excellent ! A pleasure to watch, a demonstration of how entertaining Science can be presented.
My sincere thanks to Brian, the guests, and the whole production team.
Greetings from Andromeda earthlings 👽🚀🛰
wow, you speak English?
See ya in 4 billion years. Beer’s on me👍
Ummm...could you frikkin not crash into us
Greetings 6 eyes, how are things with you and your 42 legs,🦵
@@MrBitterman75 That seems like a plan!
This was an excellent program that was both informative and excited the imagination.
All the guests were phenomenal; however I must say that Michelle Bannister’s enthusiasm radiates brings me a joy I rarely feel these days. She seems so delighted to be doing what she does, and is very effective at serving the viewer with digestible bits of her experiences that are still contain enough elation to be pleasantly intoxicating.
Passion! This is the best embellishment of imaginative curiosity.
Thanks to Brian Greene for asking critical and good questions.
It seems we have a long way to go. Our understanding of the universe is changing as data comes from James Webb.
Thank you very much for this wonderful program Prof. Brian Greene
This is just beautiful. BEYOND beautiful!!!
This is just beautiful. BEYOND beautiful!!!. Thank you Professor Greene for another brilliant episode..
Thanks to all of for taking time & sharing the exciting findings!
The advances in our knowledge of the universe since JWST became functional is nothing less than mind blowing. There is life on other planets, the only unknown is how much, there is probably intelligent life elsewhere in our galaxy, again the only unknown is frequency.
As a 67yo one minor regret is that I may not live long enough to know for sure that life has been discovered on other planets or that intelligent life has been discovered elsewhere.
My guess is that we'll have a colony on Mars sooner than the life question is definitively answered...if it ever is.
I'm in the same boat as you, only a few years further along life's journey. At least we have eclipsed the entire history of humans in space to this point.
According to many NDE's I've heard, it may be that we will know all after life here. If we live to see life found on other planets, that will be awesome, but if we then die and no longer exist and our awareness is gone, what's the point in knowing anything anyway? It's only a moment in time, a blip in eternity, and seems meaningless in the bigger picture if we don't carry our awareness beyond our physical life. Knowledge, memories, insight...none of it matters if it is extinguished after a physical lifetime. It would be pretty worthless. I guess it can be passed to living humans to advance things but eventually our sun will destroy our planet, the universe will expand, it will likely die and there will be no trace of our physical life, and no evidence we even existed.
@@mygirldarby You're right. I have thought about this exact point. What's the point of knowing anything anyway? I don't know of any way of determining the answer to this for sure. But just because we can imagine the question, ie why are we conscious, is not an argument in support of the convenient answer, which is, yes because we are conscious our life must have meaning. The alternative answer is just as likely. It's 7AM and 15 deg C, what a bloody awful time to consider the question.
@@mayflowerlash11ifficult to determine what your actually pondering, but if you think life has meaning other than what you imbue it with, then I guess you're still very young; meaning is a philosophical question, not a scientific one; the inability to cope with my answer is the crutch called religion.
Consciousness allows you to ask that question, but that doesn't mean it's a useful question, except perhaps at parties to get chats going with ppl you want to hook up with.
They are just all so positive and pleasant to listen to .. ..AND...may I add (?) They are just so talented....Here you can clearly see that it really is the "desire" that makes the work! What a great enthusiasm they show! They love their job...nice to watch...Bravo !
Imagine if ALL workplaces had such a cool atmosphere?? Ohhh? haha! .😁
Excellent presentation. Nostalgically, as a boomer science fiction fan,
I feel a small ache that Isaac Asimov can't share these new discoveries
with us; there would be many others, but his books, the fiction buoyed
by the science, still hold a very cherished claim on my not-so-rigorous
sensibilities.
Brilliant minds make the world a beautiful place.
Consider this: Our Universe is one of an infinite number of Universes. Amazing Universe WE live in though isn't it? And the JWT brings us SO MUCH CLOSER TO IT !!
It suits the cosmological natural selection teory from Lee Smolin ;)
Brian I have been fortunate enough to watch WSF for many years now: thank you! This presentation is among the best, Im a Kiwi but Michele's passion & communication is wonderful.
Still the best Christmas present I’ve ever received. I gladly pay my taxes for this engineering marvel!
I love this channel and this telescope.
Watching you, the telescope might say:"My names is Webb. James Webb"😅
so do we buddy❤
Need more WebbVR (vr game) updates. And HiRise stereo imagery! (Non anaglyph)
So exciting ! I won't be here for the next upgrade in 30 years but I can only imagine how wonderful it will be! Excellent conversations. Thank You.
It is the awareness of some of the amazing things that science will be investigating, but not for some time, that I find to be the biggest misery that comes with being cognizant of our mortality.
There are so many fascinating discoveries that will change how we understand our universe, and it's such a bummer to know that current advances in technology, which are already rapidly expanding our view, guarantees there'll be so much, that I would love to learn about, that'll happen after I have shuffled off this mortal coil.
❤️Thank you, Tracy, and everyone @ WSF for the amazing content!❤️
We really REALLY REEEAAALLLLLLYYY need more of these Professor. Especially about the DARK stuff🌌!
And the other major unknowns like:
•Black Holes🕳
•The Big💥Bang?
•Life👽!
•Anything related to Quantum Field Theory⚛️!
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!!
Brian Greene is my superhero, my kind of celebrity! ❤
this guy either works for the cia or is a member of the nwo criminal cabal syndicate or he's dumb as f not to recognize trump is saving humanity stopping the cabals agenda to over throw the world..!
They say never meet your heroes and I got the pleasure of meeting Brian in Sydney a few months ago and I can confirm that he's a great person to meet as well.
I don’t understand why he is always bringing Trump into a scientific discussion. I think he has TDS.
Can we gat a IMAX movie of the discoveries. I'd love that and I'm sure many others would.
"its like building cathedrals" i truly appreciate all involved...keep pushing us forward
They do a good job of describing how fuzzy some of these calculations and hypothesis are....so many variables at play, and it's worth reminding ourselves we're still coming to terms with how far away Betelgeuse is with any solid accuracy, a star quite nearby. The "cold dark matter" we're so excited to assume is one of the missing pieces to our observation vs. physics has never been observed, not "dark" as much as completely indetectable and a bookmark for future discovery along with "dark energy" which is just a way of saying we don't know what the force is that dictates the expansion in our observations. Like dating human history using ancient pottery, things shift as our understanding changes. I feel like good cosmologists and experts will constantly remind us of these fuzzy edges and unknowns.
I mean seriously, our observational capabilities have gone through a couple magnitudes in the last 100 years. It's as bananas as going from Wright brothers to Apollo landings in 70 years.
Best update I've heard on the new James Webb telescope... Starship is going to bring way bigger telescopes into orbit in 5 years and we can learn so much more
Bigger telescopes in 5 years on Starship? I guess you work in pr for SpaceX. That or you are a delusional Elon fanboy/girl. Webb took 30 years to build. I’m sure it’s possible to advance more quickly but thinking that there will be a more powerful space telescope launched within 5 years is absurd.
@@YogSoth Especially on "Starship".
@@YogSoth smol pp energy
wtf are you speaking of?
Delusional indeed
Elon is nothing more than tech Trump. Two men who both inherited obscene amounts ofmoney from their fathers. Both have little knowledge of their supposed "fields" they inhabit. Trump knows next to nothing about architecture or building. He just shells out his money and pays for his name to be slapped onto whatever building he wants to be associated with. Musk does the exact same thing. He knows very little about tech, but he pays to have his stupid name slapped onto various tech companies. He has destroyed Twitter because he paid enough to be in charge. Trump has done the same with casinos and various failed ventures he ruined over the years. Both men are just fools.
I enjoyed watching all the various Cosmology in Crisis presentations on different channels.
thanks WSF for always being so kickass. go JWST!
Every new generagtion of telescope and microscope forces us to rewrite our understanding of the World and Universe.
neptune’s rings are just WOW and now on demand (can be seen anytime) 💃🥳😊
... many ? ... few ! ... JWST appears to have humbled us, to the point of realizing the extent of the speculative nature of our physical sciences ... a giant step forward ... also interesting the high degree of speculation, qualification and apparent evasion of revealing possible factual information here ... seems that it is very difficult to reveal that the answers simply are not measurably known ... the third segment guests are refreshingly candid about this ... bravo ...onward ...
THE BEST YT channel ever! thank U!
Brian thank you for your magnificent work and sharing so generously your gift to educate. Thank you seems inadequate.
On a read between the lines level Brian Greene is an absolute savage on many occasions
I am glad they finally got it off the ground. I'd been waiting 20 years. I only wish I had another 20 in me for it.
Never ceases to amaze. Extraordinary!
Eyes are for studying the composition of milky way galaxy. Good experience from this conversation.
Can’t believe I was high watching this. Still learned a lot tho 👍
Same
That’s the best way
@@Mayajolie0908 True that!
27:26 - 7 uhms in 10 seconds - amazing!
This is my one of my favourite UA-cam channel
Very fascinating interviews and discussions. Thank you
I love Brian Greene...ty for all you do....
Thank you for sharing ❤ greetings
Just in time 🎉
26:28 Forgive me, but I could enjoy listening to Michelle Bannister speak all day long, even if I couldn't understand a word she spoke.
The JWST image of Neptune with its rings is spectacular, but I miss the gorgeous blue I'm used to seeing from Voyager.
1:01:24 Gotcha! LOL.
Awesome. This kind of stuff makes me proud to be a human.
Some media mention there are areas of the universe we can no longer see due to the expansion of the universe having caused them to be moving away from our region of space faster than the speed of light. Other media, as this video does, speculate about being able to observe the earliest stars in the universe.
I’ve always found it difficult to reconcile those two concepts. If we can’t see to the outer edges of the universe, how can we be sure we are estimating the age of the universe with any precision? Maybe that’s inherent in the math somehow, but I keep hoping someone will provide a clear explanation one of these days.
We are living in an age where the Universe has not yet expanded at a rate where we are unable to make observations near the beginning of the Universe. That time will come so we are fortunate to be living in this window of time.
@@mikotagayuna8494 Miko, I appreciate you replying. I enjoy reading about astronomy and cosmology, but I also find them to be pretty complex and math-intensive subjects once you start getting beyond the bounds of what I think is a typical layman’s understanding.
The Wikipedia entry for Observable Universe notes that the inflationary theory of Guth, et al. “suggest that at present the entire universe's size is at least 1.5×1034 light-years-at least 3×1023 times the radius of the observable universe”. It’s those kind of statements that contribute to my current confusion or misunderstanding. Still, I enjoy learning about it and I’m a big fan of the World Science videos for their work to communicate science to the masses.
That’s if the Big Bang cosmology holds up.
@@LesterWayneDobos Certainly. But I understand it to be one of the major theories in cosmological evolution and mentioned it to clarify my initial comment regarding the "observable" universe.
@@kevinc1956 Cosmology crosses my mind time to time. The early galaxies being 10x size of milky way hadn't the time to form so huge according to big bang timeframe. I have the assumption that beyond that is an infinite universe, not one of potential decay, but that is more of a philosophical discussion.
That was great. Thankyou ❤
Greetings from Montenegro stargazers!
I have a question for the astrophysicists. Can we detect planets orbiting a star which has the rotational axis of the system pointed directly at the Earth? If not, how much does this limited the detection of planets?
The transit method is not the only method used to detect planets. Astronomers can also look for wobbling as a result of a planet's radial velocity as well as the bending of the star's light due to effect of a planet's gravitation.
@@mikotagayuna8494 Thanks for the reply. I had heard of the wobble detection method but forgot it. Wobble detection must be very difficult due to the size of the movement. I can't imagine how much the Sun moves in response to Jupiter's orbit but to detect that wobble at a distance of lightyears is mind blowing. Cheers.
I love the habitable world concept because it give as an apportunity new working place for mining agriculture construction by using a new kind of rover I have been working on to be universal usable in every task of human ...thanks I appreciate the great work of the web telescope engineers and designer and scientists as a whole..thanks..
5,312 confirmed planets outside of our solar system...pretty cool data!!
Thank you Brian
JWST is the real golden eye ^^
04:28 Part I. Early Universe, formation of galaxies
25:00 Part II. Local neighbourhood, Solar System, asteroids, comets
57:30 Part III. Exoplanets
So interesting , fantastically enjoyable. I love it.
Amazing! Thank you!
Pure gold!
Thanks Brain for such discussions. I like this discussion which I am still watching at around 33 minutes. I also had the change to watch the talk about James WEBB few days before it was launched.
@just have minor question on the ring images. Do they always appear in that (not sure how to say in English ... let me us horizontal shape) horizontal like shape or is there a vertical like shape straight to our view dimensions or angle which are crossing those laying ring-shape. E.g. close shape like the way we draw our longitude and latitude lines our the equator which are imaginary while these are real objects' shape appearing in such circles. I mean are they one side circles or 2 intersecting like circles?
The reason I am asking for such data is that I am thinking in space as without-directions or dimensions as a whole-as-space.
My feeling is black holes are just an expression of a fifth spatial dimensional direction. Traveling towards a black hole would seem like you are getting closer to it as the environment shifts around you to resemble normal universe, but it wouldn't get any closer. Just like, traveling towards SPACE from EARTH is directionally UP.
James Webb images in the early galaxy inspired this thought.
Warping of spacetime affects our observations, and we mistake that for reality. If a black hole bends spacetime towards a singularity, time also bends around it.
Black holes are likely just convex energies matching the universal concave.
Hi from Portugal. ...
How it started is out of our reach, what's even further away is the why. Most humans think it blew from a tiny point it's how big that point was we don't know yet. My hat of to all scientists, because what they have achieved since their coming into being in their field's. Jaw dropping. 🤓🖖✌️
Fascinating!
Brian Greene is the kind of guy to address the man on the screen before the one in front of him
As I've said before and will continue to say, the image at 7:36 is NOT of gravitational lensing (at least not wholly). The dead give-away (and what should be obvious to anyone who fundamentally understands gravity) is the arc signatures and the presumptive focal center of mass for each definable arc representation given the claim of gravitational lensing.
It wouldn't be a stretch to suggest that if there is 5 baryons per cubic yard of space in one area and 2 baryons per cubic yard of space in another area on average (for example), that these minimal quantities of actual matter could not be detected at billions of light years distance and the interface areas between these dissimilar regions could be regions where light is channeled in another direction. Thus, a type of refraction (redirection we don't yet understand, possibly electro-magnetic, static polarization, quantum drag, muon interaction, etc.?).
Excellent. Very Informative.
Thanks for the the interview.
i love SCIENCE
Right?! Have you seen HiRise stereo imagery yet? (In vr)
Some 30 years ago when I was reading science, I read an article on the early universe, detailing how there were two models, at that time, I really Galaxy formation. One was the bottom up. Model were the first object to form with it we’re stars, and they would aggregate into clusters in the clusters would grow in the galaxies. The other, competing, model was the top down model, which Argued that early galaxies formed as one object initially, rapidly accumulating mass from the surrounding, and burns to form a galaxy sized mass, which then differentiated into stars. Considering the fact that at the time of the early universe, the universe itself was much smaller and extent, and therefore much denser, it seems logical that galaxy and star formation would proceed rapidly. The recent web findings showing massive galaxies formed early on, seems to support the top down model. What is the current consensus in this regard?
They don't know... But additional funding, time and tools might uncover some new information.
Meanwhile creating a material to fill potholes that will last more than 3 months still eludes us.
Can JWST be used to find ort cloud objects ?
According to John Mather (one of the panelists here), "Oort Cloud objects are far too faint, even for JWST, unless we get extremely lucky."
What a treat!
fantastic, fantasic discoveries, fantastic, but we are not going to tell you what is fantastic. that is so fantastic!
We are like 7 billion in strength in this cosmos. Wish everybody had the luxury to live in mind and achieve greater heights.
Needs wholistic changes. Hard work ahead - for real human potential - realised. Fare thee well.
Awesome show...thanks.
We will see gravitational evidence of the singularity once we can resolve data down to the Planck length... just a thought.
Now imagine where we'd be if JWST had launched a decade ago like it was supposed to.
In general if humanity could stop wars and give those funds to science... So sad world we live in ;(
