      okay update. It was really cool. I got a run down of the subject since all I knew was what this video told me. I got to check out some really cool technology being made to sense these dark matter particles (which is his specific field of study - discovering a way to detect the particles) and even check out some of the labs. It was a super cool experience, and in the end I met with another lady to discuss the career plan and class scheduling for college if physics was my major, which i’m currently planning on it to be.

I did not choose Physics as a major back in the day because I wasn’t good with math but with UA-cam existing and the lectures they have I’ve realized it’s not just about the math. Physics is in a way very philosophical. Einstein himself wasn’t good at math. And so I would’ve chosen the major now. Good luck it’s an infamously hard major and a lot of math but don’t get stuck on just the maths. As you see there’s so much still unanswered and we require creative minds that literally can think beyond the classical understanding of our reality to lead us to new findings in physics!

      +Wzardsarecool sadly einstein (at the time) refused the theory that explain quantum mechanichs, claiming that 'God does not play dice with the universe" referring to the random factor built in the quantum mechanics and spent part of his life triyng to solve more misteryes of the universe while ignoring it.
      sadly (for einstein, and a little for us trough empathy) today is has ben proved that quantum mechanics is a fact
      this means sir. Albert "PROBABLY" spent a lot of his limited time alive triyng to solve a problem while turning a blind eye for a directly impactfull cientific discovery. imagine i fe had embraced it, what would his genious mind come up with. mabye nothing, mabye many more.
      (i used the word "PROBABLY" this way enforcing the idea that for that example: Newton thought he had the universe figured out, and for decades all other cientists thought too, until Einstein proved them wrong)
      its astonishing and unmesurable the beauty of human discovery

      Do you know what a lightyear is? A light year is the distance it takes for light(the speed of light) to travel an entire year. If someone is going the speed of light, would take them an entire year to travel a lightyear. Did you know, there are places are SO far away, it is literally impossible to observe them because they're light hasn't reached us yet? In the whole existence of our universe, there are places that are SO far away, that the light from the other side hasn't reached us yet. it is been more than sextillions of centuries, and at the speed of light, it has taken it this long and it's light still hasn't reached us. If that makes any sense. The things we CAN observe is called the "Observable Universe", and anything past it is completely unavailable to us because the light past it hasn't reached us yet. Crazy right? So everything we think we know about space and the universe is only a TINY fraction of what there actually is. WAY less then 5%. More like .000000000001% is what we know, compared the the size and complexity of reality. But if you think about it this way, there could be aliens on the other side just like us, wondering if they're alone in the universe, just like us, trying to grasp at any information and learn, just like us. Advancing to try and keep going, just like us. But we'll never be able to meet any of these aliens because they're so far away, and not even light can reach them.

If the universe was created by an intelligent mind, than that would explain why there isn’t an equal amount of Anti-matter in the universe, Which is mathematically what should be the case if the big bang was an accident. It would explain why the universe would be speeding up in its expansion as well, Which defies Physics and mathematics, But would make sense if the universe was created for us to live in it forever. Maybe were just at the footsteps of being allowed to expand into the universe itself as a species.

    Been reading some quantum physics books. Penrose put out this concept of collapsing/variable wave functions of particles in relation to their distance with mass and gravity. Made me think. Perhaps Space time itself as a medium has a “resolution” that becomes more defined as mass increases. So as you approach areas of mass like a galaxy, space time becomes more constrained. As light pours into empty space without any resolution outside the galaxy, it expands space as its wave function increases to a higher probability.

      Fabian Neundorf I think you're mistaken, he says "Right now, we have more ideas about what DARK ENERGY is not, than what it is". He then goes on to say what Dark MATTER is not. He meant to say "Right now, we have more ideas about what Dark Matter is not, than what it is".
      He says we know more about what Dark matter is not, rather than what it is.
