The early universe was a superhot plasma of particles all running seemingly at random as if in a gigantic cauldron. How then the structure we see today with galaxies, stars, and planets? What forces were at work? What stages did the universe go through? How long did it take? How sure can we be?

This episode is 20 years old, and we still don't know... He was a wise man and a great scientist.
Science is still in danger because of religion. He was right.
It would be great if they could mention the filming date of the video...
If 2007 this video was taped it is 17 year's old
We know a lot more now than 10 years ago. Also know religion spoils everything which he pointed out.
His book "The First Three Minutes" is awesome
It would be nice if this was accurately dated when it was recorded. This predates the LHC. I came for current science not history.
Time loops. Timing is timing
Please add the original release date to these re-released videos. Sure, clickbait releases generate some views, but for me, a fan, I prefer authenticity for the channel.
I hate getting into one and hearing 2007. I’m like, “Well yeah we found the Higgs…ohhhhh this is old.”
That’s what happens if you’re always looking for “free” content
Hogwash. So why then read or listen to any historical perspectives. Very much enjoyed this gentleman’s perspective.
I totally agree with you.
Yeah, I would have listened, even if was identified as from 2007, because when Weinberg speaks I listen. We have to learn our way through clickbait and encourage those we follow to do the same.
Many people who take for granted that scientific progress will continue relatively uninterrupted underestimate how powerful ignorance is.
Let's not forget about those that aren't ignorant but irrational. I remember Neil DeGrasse Tyson said in a video, 7% of the elite scientists believed in a personal god.
You can be as smart/intelligent as you want; if you let your religious, political, sexual, national, material, emotional biases get in the way of reality and truth, everything is going to crumble.
Worse, as technology and science advances it becomes more and more specialized. Making it that much harder for the layman to understand and in turn, appreciate.
Genesis story was top notch science couple thousand years ago.
Aristotle's or Ptolemy's geocentric model was science for centuries and centuries.
Your science is a baby in comparison . I wonder how long it will take before all today's theories end up in recycle bin, or Science is finally recognized as just another religion.
@@branimirsalevic5092 the science of old was not conducted the same way.
Scientific theories of today have been shown to be factual beyond reasonable doubt. They are not going away.
Or perhaps you think atoms, cells, gravity and the like are ephemeral and wont be around in the future.
Science is nothing like religion. Its evidence based.
@@branimirsalevic5092
Our brains developed or evolved as a way of storing information in the environment, and controlling our bodies, which allows us to survive.
Our brains created Religion, Science, Philosophy and Society, as a way to understand the environment and ourselves.
At one point religion was the way we understood the world. Eventually Science becomes a thing(remember from the same brain that created religion and philosophy).
Science is a more objective way of understanding the environment or universe because of it processes or the scientific method.
I don't think we should look at any of these things as better or worse than the other. That shows lack of respect for our brains and how far we've come.
We should respect Religion and Science the same because its helping us survive. We may not need religion as much today but we should respect where it comes from because we did need it at one point. We should also respect Science.
One of my heros! Swallowed he's " The first 3 minutes" a few times. Paul Davies is an other star on my sky.
Matter formed from the Poynting flux jets out of the Active Galactic Nuclei.
Neutrons form along the Jets from the pure Poynting flux, or magnetic medium, that feeds the Jets.
'The Origin of Matter at the Base of Relativistic Jets in Active Galactic Nuclei' -
Romero, Gustavo E. - Gutiérrez, Eduardo
If you can get past the failed Quark model which was debunked 40 years ago, the paper does show that neutrons are created along these Jets.
According to Einstein's 1920 speech on the ether, matter could be created from the ether.
So, we can conclude that the galactic ring current rips apart matter back into ether particles and stores the ether in the galactic core.
The jets then reassemble the ether into neutrons and store them in the quasars/new galaxies that form at the end of the jets.
A cycle of life for matter.
Let's assume there is a God, then, who created God? A never ending Question
You guys sound very new to the "ultimate questions" space...😂
If I were to independently observe that powers of a positive integer n can always be summed [as in n⁰+n¹+n²+...+n^(x)] by means of the formula (n^(x+1)-1)÷(n-1), did I create powers of n? Obviously, not.
Powers of n and the summation of such are eternally existent and uncreated objects of thought. That an infinite set of numbers comprising the sums of powers of n does, in fact, exist is recursively proven by the unerring derivation by the above algorithm of each successive value from successive values of x. Thus, the infinite set of numbers which are powers of n also exists. (Q.E.D., so to speak.)
In regard to these phenomena, I am the thinking subject, and the phenomena are objects of thought. These objects of thought are-by definition and by objective, rational proof-eternally existent and uncreated.
*_The God of Western philosophical tradition (not to be confused with the God of Judaism, Christianity and Islam) is proposed as a being that is similarly eternal, infinite and uncreated._* Thus, to argue that such a being must have been created is similar to arguing that powers of n and sums of those powers must be temporally created. They are eternal and uncreated by definition. (They also happen to be recursively proven to exist by the above algorithm.) Thus, to require that they have an origin in time is irrational, because to contradict _a priori_ definitions is irrational. It is similarly irrational to argue that God-as defined by Western philosophy-requires temporal origin (i.e. that God must be created).
For more on this, refer to Plato, Aristotle, Spinoza and many others in the Western tradition. Incidentally, Eastern philosophical tradition provides similar definitions of God, although, of course, under different names.
@@halcyon2864 perhaps... And it appears I am not as initiated as iain9821. 😂
I sure hope 2007 turns out okay.
Right? I'm sure I remember seeing a community post earlier this year from this channel that we were about to see a whole bunch of new content. Sure, there's been a little bit, but the VAST majority of content is still the same recycled clips we've been seeing again and again for MANY YEARS
@@BLSFL_HAZEalright tell me something that changed drastically from what he said ?
@ManiBalajiC That's completely beside the point. All I was saying was that Robert said we were going to be getting lots of new content, and so far, there's been like five new interviews that we've seen clips from.
I like how Weinberg sighs and pauses at the beginning when asked the first question. I feel the same way. Sigh ....
There is despairing tone here as grave as weinbergs sighs. It may seem bad now but there is a reason for everything. Have faith.
Maybe I read the room wrong
Maybe I need to see Closer to the Truth and refresh on a clinic on the problem of other minds.
Why is it so quiet in here?
Cormac Mccarthy: books are made of other books. Teaching (creative) writing is a hustle.
Primo Levi chemist and Auschwitz survivor wrote, “Chemistry led to the heart of Matter, and Matter was our ally, precisely because Spirit, dear to Fascists, was our enemy.” I suggest memorizing this; personally I find it immensely comforting. Weinberg was a great scientist. Do the work, share the benefits.
Was winnie trying to explain matter formation with more matter formations??
Clever??
More honest would be to say How matter relationships drove to more complex matter arrangements ...
But beginning to talk about matter formation by postulating matter is tautological, and doesn't answer the question.
Kuhn has hardly aged. Good for him.
Ref to Jalcolm1 The mind body problem (materialism vs idealism) only arises when the observer "separates" from reality. Falsify
How were electrons, protons, neutrons, quarks, ... etc. created in the first place?
By Design
Also, how was the universe at its hottest when etropy was at its lowest.. then entropy started increasing as the universe cooled 😅
@@oOFedoOo By Design
In a way universe is a simplicity that gradually becomes a complexity exponentially
He’s quite prescient that religious zealotry would fatally influence science.
I still don't understand what is a holy book. I have only seen only two types of books. One is paper bound and another is hard bound.
It has, already ~ SCIENCE IS DEAD
(thanks Nietsche).
500 years of Scientific history? (Kuhn)
Science date back to at least the time of Eratosthenes in ancient Greece when he carried out the first scientific experiment using the scientific method. So, at least 2200 years ago
I think what he’s trying to say is scientific research will slow if you put stupid people in charge of the government. But if you have a voting population who is ignorant of the necessity of science, then why would they want to fund it anyway? I like science. It’s cool.
What would be these reasons stopping us from pursuing scientific knowledge?
Sadly, the LHC isn't big enough apparently.
I got all excited there, when he mentioned the building of a massive new accelerator which is to open... in... aww, 2007. This is an old video, then.
This is absolutely fair enough, but give us a wee clue at the start, at least.
The brilliant Weinberg passed away three years ago.
I’m absolutely fine with listening to old clips of wise men.
@@dukeallen432 Me, too. That wasn't my point. I reckon this whole long-form conversation thing is one of the best things ever to appear in the entertainment world. It was just a slightly tongue in cheek poke at the lack of a date and my "Awww" moment. I hate the internet. I have to explain fucking everything.
Wow it’s disappointing to learn this channel is mostly old clips
Matter didn´t logically form in an "early universe"as this is eternal. Ancient ancestors could have told you that.
Bravo! Not many understand this. My book will be for you - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe" Regards
...May I, pre Big Bang All Every & Every All existed with No Past, Present, or Future. I call this Eternity, Perpetual Now. GOD set aside a portion of Eternity, creating HIS Garden, and it was the separating this section which the Power, the binding bonds was tremendous, intense, creating the very First Moment of our Time/Space
As Time Past the conditions subsided, eventually allow the Environment to settling down. This is why our planet, are suitable for Life as we know it. With all the Fine Tuned Garden for our benefit, respectfully, Chuck...captivus brevis...you tube...Blessings...we all have special gifts & talents. From birth to your & mine life gained knowledge & understanding of our Cosmos...
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
This is just word salad.
This is fiction. Not science. Nice story telling, but that's all.
No it is not vain.
...Gentlemen, your accumulation of Scientific Knowledge/Understanding is awesome. Science is key, important to our existence. GOD & all the Sciences coexist in my mind & my limited Life Existence. Each & Everyone of else is Important. We all have different fingerprints. Planet Earth, & Mankind is magnificent, respectfully, Chuck...captivus brevis...you tube...Blessings my Brothers & Sisters...
No gods and science don’t coexist but if that makes your insecure minds feel better.
With luck and more power to you.
In a matter of seconds
@7:13 manned spaceflight had no scientific function??😮
Driven by $$$&&
@@dukeallen432 it all requires money. I think his point is it's driven by politics. I disagree. Plenty of scientific study has been done regarding space and the human body.. etc.
Folks, there have been amazingly intelligent and wise men who really endeavored to touch such a profound truth. Listening to all these modern pseudo physicists will dismay. Going at their rate, it will take them roughly 1000 years to realize genuine metaphysics.
How can one not consider them clowns? All they can talk about is computation, particles, string theory...
Just don't cut yourself short because of them.... they're just as uncertain as you are, if not more.
They're not trying to do metaphysics, they're doing physics. Those aren't the same thing. It doesn't matter how much metaphysics you do, it won't show us how particles and fields behave in the world, or how that knowledge can be applied practically in engineering. How we then go on to interpret this information in metaphysical terms is of course another question, and that's open to anyone.
Imo, you should be more precise on who you mean.
@@simonhibbs887 you have no authority or expertise in science and wisdom.
@@obiwanduglobi6359 it's not the person it's the persona.
@@S3RAVA3LM Elaborate pls.
Nothing answered
I take a bet: If he'd had delivered an answer, you would simply not accept it whether it was true or not. Because you have one simple but dogmatic answer in mind. Did I win the bet?
Rejection, insult,..... are far better particle accelerators than trillions of LHCs, if one has the capacity to link them to real FIELDS of PLANTS, the ultimate source of all our thoughts and "calculations with the tiniest particles in the entire universe (known AND unknown) ~ THE DIGITS".
Water doesn't present in "thousand@million" degrees of heat. It's true that our earth formation happens "phase by phase." as what the Quran and Bible told us
They’ve been telling this story since the beginning of time.
How did a virtual reality create consciousness, and than how could consciousness believe, there is matter?
A how question. I ask a what question: What the heck has your question to do with this series?!
Virtual reality a false belief
@@obiwanduglobi6359 Most of you think, first there was matter. What if consciousness is the beginning of everything
@@gregbrown5020 Proof me wrong!
@@Carbonarars "Virtual reality" is a contradiction in terms, begging the question. There is only one indivisible reality at the present moment. If you think you are separate from reality, living in a virtual world, you are delusional.
"How did Matter Form in the Early Universe?"
There was NO Early Universe before the first matter was formed. What exists was the Spiritual World of GOD before HE formed matter out of HIS spirits to create the Universe...
Yes, the Universe has a beginning that was created by the formation of matter, but its CREATOR has no beginning and no end..
In the beginning is the "WORD" which does not mean man's vocal chords but means the vibrations of spirits from a tiny portion of God's Spiritual World that FUSED to form this Physical Universe...
..but Atheists, whose definition of reality relies solely on what their LIMITED PHYSICAL SENSES can reach, ruled out the possibility of the Spiritual Existence of the Almighty Creator because they think it is just a fairy tale...
.. yet, instead, Atheists prefer to believe that Matter, Life and Consciousness came from EXPLOSION of Unconscious NOTHING ( BigBang ) worst than all the fairy tales in the world, funny at best..
.. Atheists' funny insane theory is more than enough reason why Faith in our Loving Creator is the only logical choice of belief to explain not only the beginning of Universe but also the origin of our Consciousness..
... it is just amazing how demonic possession can turn Atheist's brain into vegetable... so sad and concerning.
What do you get out of making up and telling all of these obvious lies?
👎🏼
Why do you think humanity still don't know God is necessary? The greatest knowledge is to understand God exists. We only have one life and eternity is guaranteed. God exists, you are God's Creation. Suddenly what we do and think matter. Innocent and vulnerable children need to know God exists because logically it is impossible the existence of the creation or finitude without the creator or infinitude. The past can not be changed. Humanity have to focus on the present and future learning from the past. I am a psychologist, not a charlatan looking for attention. I am giving to you infinitely important information. You are infinitely important. To protect yourself you have to teach others God is necessary. The fear of God starts understanding God decided to create the universe uncaused from self, because from nothing can not be created something. Why the knowledge is censored? Knowledge is wealth, knowledge is health, knowledge is useful. To understand reality you have to understand God exists. You can't understand reality if you don't understand God exists. God is all. If it exists is real and is God and if it doesn't exist it is not God. If you exist you are forever part of God. The past can not be changed unfortunately. It is what it is. What happened happened and it's for ever past. Religion and atheism are costing you your mental health and wealth. The war must stop. I need a change. What humanity fight for? Is not peace what you want. I want my Nobel Prizes. I want a better life for myself forever. I know I repeat myself and I don't want to repeat myself. The truth is atheism is a logical fallacy that assumes God is the religious idea of the creator of the creation to conclude wrongly no creator exists because a particular idea of God doesn’t exist. Spinoza was right and who listened to him? How many people have to rediscover the nature of God before humanity listen?. What do you want? Maybe I can help. Thank you.
god doesn't exist, I know you believe it does but it DOES NOT EXIST.
Still with the lying disrespect and running away huh?
What people really want to know is not how matter evolved into more complex matter, but rather how matter formed at all ... _period!_ My position is that the universe is a *one-off phenomenon* that cannot be reproduced once all the matter had formed. It cannot be reproduced because to do so would require a scenario where no matter exists, ... and that's not going to happen.
*Preface:* When you look below the paint on a Bugatti, you see the metal body and chassis. Below the metal frame lies the outer shell of the engine. When you move below the outer shell of the engine, you find valves, pistons and channels for various fluids. That's about as far as you can go with breaking down a *physical Bugatti.* ... To explore the Bugatti's origin beyond this point takes you to *design schematics, CAD data, and blueprints* which represents all of the raw information prework that went into the Bugatti's physical structure.
... This is "Existence" telling you what to do to discover its origin.
When you do the same with the universe (as Weinberg just did) you run into the T-0 point of Big Bang and that's as far as you can go. Just like with the Bugatti, anything beyond the physical product takes you to an *information-only state.* All of this nondimensioinal *raw information* evolved in a fraction of a second into multidimensional matter and energy through Big Bang's singularity.
We reproduce this same pattern with every new invention.
I see you post a lot. Have you ever seen calculations that show how much empty space is in the proton if you ignore the kinetic energy in the gluons? When you keep extrapolating this empty space to more meaningful sizes, it becomes quite apparent that there is very little actual substance (if any) in the universe, and it is all energy masquerading as matter.
@@markb3786 *"Have you ever seen calculations that show how much empty space is in the proton if you ignore the kinetic energy in the gluons?"*
... I don't concern myself with the empty part of the bucket. I focus on what's inside it.
*"When you keep extrapolating this empty space to more meaningful sizes, it becomes quite apparent that there is very little actual substance (if any) in the universe, and it is all energy masquerading as matter."*
...If you could gather all existing matter in the universe, it would fill a 1,000-light-years-size cube (all four sides = 1000 light years wide). I consider that a rather significant amount of matter (or energy if you prefer) and worthy of speculation. ... _Don't you?_
Personally, if all that existed were "me," then the amount of "me" would be even more miniscule in relation to the size of that 1000-light-years cube than matter is to the universe combined with space.
Even so, ... I'd still want to know how I came to be.
@@0-by-1_Publishing_LLC that's great Mr. "I have no sources but am an expert sophist'....and when you become dubious, you resort to the ole youtube grammar police.
@@0-by-1_Publishing_LLC the fact is, whatever comes to exist in phenomena isn't what brought it about, or gave rise to, or engendered. Your entire point of view is pure amusement. A true sophist you are clown.
@@0-by-1_Publishing_LLC you sophist, you think matter is synonymous or equivalent to energy. Where is your evidence for this?
I am believer in Jesus and toward the latter part of my 50-year relationship with The Lord, I have discovered that I am Reformed. I could go deeper..but, the point I wish to make is that I believe there is an absolutely essential need for journeying with science and as we go deeper we find irrefutable evidence of the Creator of everything from what cannot be seen and who did so merely by His will and command. Keep doing the great work 🙏
Science has no need to journey with superstition. There is no evidence of a creator with anything. Forsake your delusional mysticism.
Insanity. Worse, societal acceptance of this insanity.
There is precisely zero evidence for this pitiful mindset.
