    2:25 - "We'll never know what that Star, or any other star, looks like at this exact moment". It's the same for EVERYTHING we view. Even when I look at my keyboard when I'm typing, I'm looking back in time to how it looked about 1 nano second ago. That car across the street could have disappeared 50 nano seconds ago, and you wouldn't know about it. For sure, our brain processing slows things down so much that these times don't really matter, but the undeniable truth of relativity is that everything we see happened a 'short' while ago and we are ALWAYS looking back in time - we see nothing 'as it happens'. The effect may be more pronounced in space, but don't forget that it happens down here too. The same laws of physics apply in both cases.

    • @Brastro
      @Brastro 7 років тому +20

      you can add to that the time it take for your brain to process the event too. so it would take you about 100 microseconds before you actually see something right in front of you.

    • @seriousbutfunny2
      @seriousbutfunny2 7 років тому +10

      So you are basically saying there is such a thing as "time travel"?

    • @rinrts5695
      @rinrts5695 7 років тому +13

      And that's why we can't see in 3 dimensions. It's impossible to see every object in front of your eyes at the same moment in time. What we are seing is a 3 dimensional image of a 4 dimensional world.

    • @rinrts5695
      @rinrts5695 7 років тому +3

      you mean for it to hit your brain right? and if i'm not mistaken, 80 ms is for hearing, sight takes around 120-180ms amirite

    • @oraviram
      @oraviram 7 років тому +3

      +rinrts
      Wait, what what are you talking about? Are you saying that because we never see something as it happens the world is 4 dimensional and we see a 3 dimensional image of it? Those are not related...
      And you really can't know how many dimensions the world has, it can be 3, 4, 5, 1000, or whatever number you can think of. What matters is that we see in 3 dimensions. Or maybe even 2D, and just like computers, we simply project the x dimensional world we live in to 2D and use perspective to see it like it's 3D.
      The delay might mean we see a single point (what does that even mean) at a time, and our mind is too slow to delete the old points from the memory memory that you see (again, I will compare it to computers: it unloads the memory you see to the one in your brain you can remember), so new memory is being added and it looks like you are seeing a lot of things at the same time.
      Of course my comment is really stupid, it's just a complete guess, and it's something we really can't know about (there are much more primitive questions we first have to answer before we start asking questions like those and get a definitive answer). I just wanted to comment about what you said, since you said it like it's a true thing and that it's related to what the original guy said.

      Can you please show me other resources I can use, such as online books or other free videos. I'm fine with any length but I understand Crash Course tries to keep their videos roughly 10 minutes long so they can be used in classes and for convenience. Anything you can provide would be great.

    • @SLFKimosabae
      @SLFKimosabae 7 років тому +1

      Been suggesting this for years. Ideally, we'd have had CC: Trig/Calculus before CC: Physics. But I guess the latter is just more marketable

    • @armorsmith43

    • @ita6aki
      @ita6aki 7 років тому +8

      Andrew Farrell I'm subscribed to the channel 3blue1brown. I've also looked at Khan academy, infinite series, numberphile, mathologer, and standupmaths. I know Khan academy goes through calculus, but why can't crash course? There's already channels like computerphile and sixty symbols which goes over comp sci and physics more thoroughly than crash course, and yet crash course has courses on those topics. Why can't they journey into the realms of calculus, probability, and statistics and have a host like the lady from infinite series? Hopefully the calculus course could go all the way into differential equations and transforms like I think Kahn academy did.

    • @karlhenke91
      @karlhenke91 7 років тому +2

      There is a point in getting good at something, and there are definitely other series that go more in depth, but like we heard in the first episode: everything will be on the test. There is also something great about teaching the context, and then going in depth on your own with the knowledge that interests you most.

    • @ita6aki
      @ita6aki 7 років тому +1

      Hamchun Kou I'm not looking to crash course to learn things I already know such as calculus, probability, and statistics. I'm looking for then to present it in an interesting way and perhaps show me a little something I didn't know.

  • @rkpetry
    @rkpetry 7 років тому +5

    [03:33] they had to have 'standard candles' (stars) that would register specific distances....
    [07:07] dark mass is functionally a compound of: mass-drag by the galaxy's non-dark stars (like the expansion of space itself by the Big Bang mass), plus possibly, some residual, but cosmology isn't there yet, so it's to-be-determined after mass-drag is computed properly....

Gives me faith in what we can figure out when not killing each other. Don't mean to end on a negative note but just something I was thinking all along whilst watching this series. Thanks Doc. Thanks Crash Course. 😁👍🏼
