About Violetta's question (22:50 - Is there a speed to time travel?), If we initiate our travel purely in the time dimension (perpendicular to the 3 space dimensions), won't the conservation of our angular & linear momenta keep us in place in space?
I've thought about what Neil was saying previously and I'm not sure travelling through time would ignore the force of gravity. So the gravity of Earth would still pull you towards it... not to mention the gravity of sun and black holes in the center of galaxies and whatever. Sun IS NOT stationary. It moves away from the center of the universe. So... no... Earth would not hit you... it would and the whole solar system would be potentially millions of miles away somewhere if you never moved in relation to what... the center of the universe? But everything is relative, so I would assume that the gravity would still have an effect on you even if you traversed through the fourth dimension in the other direction.
I love Neil cause you know he's brilliant and he finds a way to dumb down this complex data to common language and association so regular folk can comprehend some of science mysterious wonders. Great Podcast Gentlemen

Dear Neil, Thank you for taking the time to do star talk " A COSMIC QUERY", your abilities are definitely needed in more urgent places, but you are a master, at exciting the people around you about physics, the single most important topic, in relation to life, it comes down to physicist's and physicians.👍🙏thank you everyone, you are our most, honorable Ambassador's of human beings.👍
Oohh. Imagine Neil and Chuck touring the country/world, basically doing live startalks ,but with more comedy and tweaking it a little for the road?! They could take questions from the crowd and have "local area" guests. I would follow them around like a groupie. 😅
Yes, Neil is blessed with knowledge he feels he needs to share with the world. Now that’s a great service to humanity!!! In appreciate it greatly and constantly keeping an open mind when you speak Neil! Thank You Sir😊 🤙💞🤙
As a student I disliked chemistry, especially the atomic table, until, in my old age, Dr Tyson turned up on UA-cam, and made it fun! One strong proof that, not just the subject but the teacher that moulds a person to attain excellence in any feild of human endeavour.
Being a patron and getting my questions answers by Neil and chuck I so much fun, however, I think I’m giving up at explaining how my name is pronounced! 😂
You made me do it! For the very first time I joined Patreon!!!! Chuck: Thank you for being apart of the show! (edit: I joined before hearing of your new show)
I mean. Who’d a thunk it? The perfect cousins. Tossing out jokes to each other and watching the smoke and heat rise from the accuracy. Oh the accuracy! Thank you both
What accuracy? They haven't Proven other dimensions even exist via the scientific method. Other dimensions - NOT scientific at all. if you claim they are you preach pseudoscience by definition. These two scientific illiterate clowns couldn't science their way out of a wet paper bag.
Concerning the conference of astrophysicists in London this 27th of April 2024 and listening to you talking about what has been heavily discussed there already a year before is just amazing. (Hope not getting banned from the channel for the amount of postings.)
I don’t think a pillow would flatten in a vacuum. I think Neil is thinking about what happens when you vacuum the air out of a pillow, for instance, in a plastic bag, but it only flattens in this case because of the air pressure around the bag pressing it inwards without anything to keep it pressed outward in its customary shape. A pillow jettisoned into a vacuum would have its gaseous interior dissipate, but there would be no atmospheric pressure causing it to flatten. I think it’s a more interesting question than he thought. The air in the interior, if anything, might actually apply an outward pressure as it evacuated from the pillow, causing it to puff up as the gas escapes, and then return to its original shape. This is all assuming that the pillow is a feather down pillow, and not something made of airtight cels. A ziplock baggie that was full of air, similarly, would probably pop in a vacuum, but if it was unzipped, it would lose the gas without flattening, because there would be no outside atmospheric pressure to cause it to go flat.
Neil gets A+ for mentioning Mothra, for some reason I've never made the connection between a loud and proud geek, and cheesy B-sci-fi movies! I love it!! In high school my physics class was "Physics of Super Heroes" , would love to see Neil and Chuck cover physics of outer space/physics-defying Kaiju and superheroes.

HEY NEIL! I need help with my new years resolution. I've figured out how to change the stars by stopping hurricanes. What I mean is, for stopping hurricanes, I get 7 things and one of those 7 things is to change the stars. My idea for changing the stars includes Orion and Pleiades (Subaru). I figure it's time to put something up there that's relevant to us, don't you think? Take Orion's belt and Betelgeuse becomes the head with a baseball hat. Below the belt are two legs bending at the knee. The feet aligning perfectly under the bent knees. The 3 stars of Orion's belt align perfectly as the 3 fat belt loops on a baseball uniform. The spear pointing at "Subaru" is the bat being swung and "Pleiades" is the baseball flying away after being hit. Put it all together and you get, "THE ALL-STAR." In my case I drew a 7 on the jersey to make him, "Mickey," but you can put any number you want. I really have figured out how to change the stars by stopping hurricanes. Don't worry, I've technically already done the easy part and changed the stars. My parents were teachers and for over 3 decades, they taught their students my constellation. Those kids will teach their kids. So on and so on. See, stars changed. I just need help to make it legit and with the rest. No, I'm not kidding. Yes, I'm serious. Figured Neil has taken on the IAU and won, he can help. If, rather when, my idea for stopping hurricanes works it could be converted to a larger scale and EASILY regulate temperature, end drought, stop wildfires. It'd be wrong of me to not, at least, try. This is me, trying. Will you please reach out to me and let me know that your interested in helping to stop hurricanes and change the stars? Thank you and don't worry, where I come from, crazy is a compliment. ;-P To be clear, I need help with stopping hurricanes.
Never thought about it that way, talking about time travel. Like, I thought about landing in the same place where you took off. For example, if I wanted to see the built of a 100 year old building, the first stone was placed. And I was next to the building so I could arrive at the time desired. Would I land in that same location that I did the time jumping? My thought was that due to earths rotation, I would probably take off from a place in Texas and land somewhere in Africa. Now that he says it, you might end up somewhere in earth's orbit in space, but not on earth. This is never in the movies😂. And is a time jump the same thing as time travel or is there a difference 🤔?
It’s worse than that; the entire solar system is orbiting the center of the galaxy, and the galaxy itself is moving. Arriving in Earth orbit might be optimistic!
Thank you for making a scientific comedy special! Come tour in Huntsville, AL. There are plenty of us that are not only competent, but enthusiastic about scientific hilarity. I would do my best to be in the front row! Dr. Tyson, thank you for giving us the gift of education. I am not strong in math beyond Calculus; I am able to learn about my obsession despite my cognitive shortcomings. Your my personal guide to a mindset beyond the mundane.
As a native from Boise, I appreciate that Neil knew the correct pronunciation! Also, it never ceases to amaze me how well Chuck mentally matches with Neil’s smarts.
"You can't be bringing the recipe off the Campbell's cream of mushroom soup to the pot luck." I understand what you mean, but you can if you live in rural Minnesota. Here's an example. Where I work we had a chili cookoff. I asked the guy who won the cookoff for his recipe. Turns out everything in the recipe came from a can, except the chili seasoning which came from a pouch that said "McCormick Chili Seasoning Mix". The saddest thing is, it was actually the best chili in the contest. Minnesota has a lot of great things, but in general the food goes downhill the further from the equator you go, and Minnesota is pretty far from it.
Mr Tyson has reminded us in several videos that we would have to be aware of the exact time and exact location from the perspective of our galaxy or even universe when time traveling. I wonder if those constant changes and fluctuations are why the quantum level is so uncertain and probabilistic.
❤ for Neil and Chuck! My favorite UA-cam channel! Funny, educational, safe, inspirational, #mindblown, real, true, respectful, acceptance, humanity! Some of the things that go through my mind when I watch your videos. ❤❤❤❤
Awesome idea for a comedy special Chuck! Should be great, I'm normally not that into stand up comedy but that sounds like it would be super entertaining! Lovely!
Doctor Tyson, with regard to 4th-Dimensional surgery, there was a pilot made in 1995 that was, unfortunately, not picked up as a TV series. The pilot was called "White Dwarf". One of the features of the show was that a doctor could use a special "glove" that actually did what you suggested - clean out arteries, etc.
In answer to Violetta's question.... imagine if you had to take a 'run up' to travel through time (along the lines of Back to the Future), would you need to calculate it in Seconds per Metre?
Hi, what's the diff between a virtual particle heading into a black hole, but it's taking an infinite amount of time to get to the event horizon ( infinite equals the life of the universe?), but gets converted to hawking radiation, and the tired light phenomenon?
So I’m not a scientist but I think you’re mixing some things up here. Anyone reading this please feel free to correct me. A particle does not take an infinite amount of time to reach the event horizon, but rather the singularity. And virtual particles in the context of hawking radiation is completely separate from the hypothetical particle heading into a black hole. The radiation is basically the energy from the black hole spontaneously forming particles but one half falls back into the black hole and the other radiates away thus lowering the mass/energy of the black hole slightly.
I don’t drink coffee, so maybe I’ll become a patron instead seems quite affordable. Especially if I’m only getting one a month couldn’t say I could accomplish that if I started drinking coffee.
26:00 Proposal for the term for the speed of time: Chronocity. I think this is a really important concept we need to be considering, because that value, the relative speed of time, will change as we start to travel at fractions of the speed of light. Follow up to that, are we factoring the cronocity of the earth as it travels through the solar system, the solar system as it travels through the milky way, and the galaxy as it travels through space when we are calculating things like the Hubble Constant? Could the perspective that the universe is expanding be a lensing effect of our own chronocity?
You can tell how excited Neil got talking about Newtons laws finding Neptune because that New York accent came out super hard when he says "right over here" 🤣
Dr. Tyson. I plan you see you in New York on the 20th. My birthday is on the 21st. First, what is the website to be able to ask questions/support you? Second, do you allow questions after your lectures? Or EVEN BETTER, it'd be the best and most memorable birthday I would've EVER had if I could meet you and ask you a few questions in person. If not, 😢 but I have at least 3 questions I NEED your perspective and genius on these questions
To the first question (Amanda): Neil, someone DID ask the question you suggested. It's the reason why some physicists are exploring the possibility that Λ (cosmological constant) is not constant in time. It has been suggested that dark energy may be weaker now than it once was, which might explain the Hubble tension and the σ_8 tension. Maybe they asked because you suggested it?
Why don't we think of Energy as the 5th dimension? We don't exist in height x width x depth x time without energy. Energy manifests in the ways that it does due to the quanta, so that could be 6th - and perhaps we need to invert the order, to make more sense of it: quanta may be older than the universe itself, and allow for matter to take shape and depth, following specific modes of time and direction of travel, at rates seeming to vary due to quantum or vacuum forces. Energy is the literal unraveling-of-events and the philosophy of action and reaction, necessary for all other things to manifest. Something quantum occurred, and the occurrence itself may have been on a scale colossal enough to start the big bang, one which would be entirely invisible to us without the means to view the universe through not only light, but thought, and consciousness. The information gathered from light are 6-dimensional, I argue. Our thought synapses, brain functions, and bodily health all rely on fluid transfers and electricity, primarily. The ability for life to cognize beyond itself is a potential for whatever life adapts best to its reality, and that reality nurtures it carefully. Earth is our reality, and the anecdotal evidence for our math. Fortunately, we've adapted codified language and numerical mathematics into society, and can harness the brilliance of engineering as it has ascended humanity into its own dimension, skirting through time to achieve the ability to destroy the planet's ecosystem overnight. While that is certainly not our goal, it stands as a testament to natural destiny, that we must begin considering the Universe more seriously. Primarily, by respecting that the forces beyond our planet are on a magnitude which cannot be organically imagined, that distances are on scales unreachable by us in our lifetime but future generations may yet visit some distant system or planet, and that death fights us every step of the way. Our bodies are designed for Earth, and for some people there are much more significant limitations to that. If we are not perfectly able, our minds are sitting idly by, used nowhere near their potential. It is thought which designs our existence on this planet, as well as all life on it. No other dimension "obeys" thought but us - whatever the convergence of chemicals in our brains determines that to be. Thought must exist as some quasi-algorithmic function, repeating itself daily, in order to resist reverting to an otherwise basic state of existence - death of the mind. Sterility. Reality unfolds before us, and we retain information not only of sight, but our other senses as well. In fact, sight is simply photons hitting our eyes, and our brains processing an image, usually its best guess. The margin of error on what we see, physiologically speaking, is nothing compared to our unique interpretations of taste, smell, feel, and sound. The foods we eat, candles we like, beds we prefer, and music preference. The concept of individuality is born of thought, and is present in many creatures capable of such. The Universe experiences itself subjectively through its 6-dimensions, and now through humans who are discovering these aspects. Self-discovery is an important milestone for evolution in earthly biology. It also describes what is occurring through us, at an accelerating pace, in fact. We are a medium of this higher dimension.
Do you think there's life in other dimensions?
There is a possibility
There’s no reason for life not to exist, whichever form that might be, maybe we are just 1 type of life form, there might be others

But everything is relative, so I would assume that the gravity would still have an effect on you even if you traversed through the fourth dimension in the other direction.
I love Neil cause you know he's brilliant and he finds a way to dumb down this complex data to common language and association so regular folk can comprehend some of science mysterious wonders. Great Podcast Gentlemen
"if there's one people that cannot complain about races..." and "pure energy" had me cracking up 😂
Welllll ... German society as a whole is very aware of this, and as a people they work pretty hard to squash racism in their society. So compared to many other countries they deserve some respect this way.
@@netgnostic1627 you really wanna bring up Germany 😂😂😂 biggest racist in the world like asia 😂😂 you just diss respected Jews and wanna act like Japan and Germany teamed up because racism 😂
@@netgnostic1627omg bro lol
Thanks, Dr. Tyson. Your existence in this universe has bettered my understanding of so many things.
I'm loving these! Greets from Kenya.
Excellent program. The balance between education and entertainment/ humour is amazing. Thank you, and well done to all those making this program
Dear Neil, Thank you for taking the time to do star talk " A COSMIC QUERY", your abilities are definitely needed in more urgent places, but you are a master, at exciting the people around you about physics, the single most important topic, in relation to life, it comes down to physicist's and physicians.👍🙏thank you everyone, you are our most, honorable Ambassador's of human beings.👍
i would SO pay to see chuck perform a science comedy set!!!
Oohh. Imagine Neil and Chuck touring the country/world, basically doing live startalks ,but with more comedy and tweaking it a little for the road?! They could take questions from the crowd and have "local area" guests. I would follow them around like a groupie. 😅
This is one man who i am sure i wont get bored of listening to forever.
Yes, Neil is blessed with knowledge he feels he needs to share with the world. Now that’s a great service to humanity!!! In appreciate it greatly and constantly keeping an open mind when you speak Neil!
Thank You Sir😊
🤙💞🤙
Chuck is an absolute GEM
As a student I disliked chemistry, especially the atomic table, until, in my old age, Dr Tyson turned up on UA-cam, and made it fun! One strong proof that, not just the subject but the teacher that moulds a person to attain excellence in any feild of human endeavour.
Being a patron and getting my questions answers by Neil and chuck I so much fun, however, I think I’m giving up at explaining how my name is pronounced! 😂
I just pronounce it anyway i like
Whoaow!
I posed this very question to myself before! Lets hear it from the experts!
You made me do it! For the very first time I joined Patreon!!!! Chuck: Thank you for being apart of the show! (edit: I joined before hearing of your new show)
Welcome aboard, Jeff! See you there!
I love that Dr. Tyson is always excited to share what he's learned. It's infectious.
I’m so excited about Chuck’s comedy special!!!
Love these two scientists.... yeah Chuck is a great co-host. I've learned so much about space science.
I mean. Who’d a thunk it? The perfect cousins. Tossing out jokes to each other and watching the smoke and heat rise from the accuracy.
Oh the accuracy! Thank you both
What accuracy? They haven't Proven other dimensions even exist via the scientific method. Other dimensions - NOT scientific at all. if you claim they are you preach pseudoscience by definition. These two scientific illiterate clowns couldn't science their way out of a wet paper bag.
Neil, the more I learn and the more understand that is not about a having the right answers, its about the right questions.
Great stuff! Thanks for being the team that you are.
Concerning the conference of astrophysicists in London this 27th of April 2024 and listening to you talking about what has been heavily discussed there already a year before is just amazing. (Hope not getting banned from the channel for the amount of postings.)
I don’t think a pillow would flatten in a vacuum. I think Neil is thinking about what happens when you vacuum the air out of a pillow, for instance, in a plastic bag, but it only flattens in this case because of the air pressure around the bag pressing it inwards without anything to keep it pressed outward in its customary shape. A pillow jettisoned into a vacuum would have its gaseous interior dissipate, but there would be no atmospheric pressure causing it to flatten. I think it’s a more interesting question than he thought. The air in the interior, if anything, might actually apply an outward pressure as it evacuated from the pillow, causing it to puff up as the gas escapes, and then return to its original shape. This is all assuming that the pillow is a feather down pillow, and not something made of airtight cels. A ziplock baggie that was full of air, similarly, would probably pop in a vacuum, but if it was unzipped, it would lose the gas without flattening, because there would be no outside atmospheric pressure to cause it to go flat.
Yeah, same. Hearing the question I just imagined the pillow inflating as the gas is sucked out.
I was looking for this. I wasn't shure, but felt this was the right answer when Neil said it.
Neil gets A+ for mentioning Mothra, for some reason I've never made the connection between a loud and proud geek, and cheesy B-sci-fi movies! I love it!!
In high school my physics class was "Physics of Super Heroes" , would love to see Neil and Chuck cover physics of outer space/physics-defying Kaiju and superheroes.
EDIT: DIDNT EVEN GET TO THE PART HE MENTIONS RODAN CAUSE I PAUSED IMMEDIATELY TO COMMENT 🦖 YA BOISE
So all you learned in school was fairy tales just like the heliocentric model. Got it.
@@DivergentDroid I didn't say anything about religion
@@DivergentDroid The Physics of Super Heroes is actually an academic science textbook but I'm not shocked you don't know that
@@CityStomperMedia Likewise. You Fool. I'm Totally not surprised you know nothing of physics and science.
@@CityStomperMedia Get with Me LIVE on video and I'll prove that to the world. assuming you aren't Chicken! Do you trust your science and physics now?
I like these grab bags because inevitably some stoner asks a really deep and profound question that just makes you go: *Huuhhhhhh?!?!* 😂😂 PS Let me give a shout out to the chef here in Louisville, probably over at Sullivan, great school! We have awesome chefs and restaurants here.
Guilty
Gawd, I love you two!!
am i the only person who genuinely gets excited when chuck is in the episode
Happy thursday
Happy Thursday!
It's Friday here..
The best show!!!!
Another one! Yayyyy 🎉
I always loved the chemistry between Neil and Chuck. Neil & Chuck 4ever!
NC4E!!!
HEY NEIL! I need help with my new years resolution. I've figured out how to change the stars by stopping hurricanes. What I mean is, for stopping hurricanes, I get 7 things and one of those 7 things is to change the stars.
My idea for changing the stars includes Orion and Pleiades (Subaru). I figure it's time to put something up there that's relevant to us, don't you think? Take Orion's belt and Betelgeuse becomes the head with a baseball hat. Below the belt are two legs bending at the knee. The feet aligning perfectly under the bent knees. The 3 stars of Orion's belt align perfectly as the 3 fat belt loops on a baseball uniform. The spear pointing at "Subaru" is the bat being swung and "Pleiades" is the baseball flying away after being hit. Put it all together and you get, "THE ALL-STAR." In my case I drew a 7 on the jersey to make him, "Mickey," but you can put any number you want.
I really have figured out how to change the stars by stopping hurricanes. Don't worry, I've technically already done the easy part and changed the stars. My parents were teachers and for over 3 decades, they taught their students my constellation. Those kids will teach their kids. So on and so on. See, stars changed. I just need help to make it legit and with the rest. No, I'm not kidding. Yes, I'm serious. Figured Neil has taken on the IAU and won, he can help. If, rather when, my idea for stopping hurricanes works it could be converted to a larger scale and EASILY regulate temperature, end drought, stop wildfires. It'd be wrong of me to not, at least, try. This is me, trying. Will you please reach out to me and let me know that your interested in helping to stop hurricanes and change the stars? Thank you and don't worry, where I come from, crazy is a compliment. ;-P
To be clear, I need help with stopping hurricanes.
I want what you're smokin
Never thought about it that way, talking about time travel. Like, I thought about landing in the same place where you took off. For example, if I wanted to see the built of a 100 year old building, the first stone was placed. And I was next to the building so I could arrive at the time desired. Would I land in that same location that I did the time jumping? My thought was that due to earths rotation, I would probably take off from a place in Texas and land somewhere in Africa. Now that he says it, you might end up somewhere in earth's orbit in space, but not on earth. This is never in the movies😂. And is a time jump the same thing as time travel or is there a difference 🤔?
It’s worse than that; the entire solar system is orbiting the center of the galaxy, and the galaxy itself is moving. Arriving in Earth orbit might be optimistic!
GREAT! grab bag edition with new stuff and deeper explanations. Loved it.
That joke cratered. Mic drop.
Thank you for making a scientific comedy special! Come tour in Huntsville, AL. There are plenty of us that are not only competent, but enthusiastic about scientific hilarity. I would do my best to be in the front row!
Dr. Tyson, thank you for giving us the gift of education. I am not strong in math beyond Calculus; I am able to learn about my obsession despite my cognitive shortcomings. Your my personal guide to a mindset beyond the mundane.
Amanda's last name is "Hugginkiss" lol
Genius
Grab bags are definitely my favorite videos. Cosmic gumbo. I'm pretty sure I heard Chuck say that before lol
As a native from Boise, I appreciate that Neil knew the correct pronunciation! Also, it never ceases to amaze me how well Chuck mentally matches with Neil’s smarts.
The greatest podcast duo for Universe facts and comedy.
"You can't be bringing the recipe off the Campbell's cream of mushroom soup to the pot luck." I understand what you mean, but you can if you live in rural Minnesota. Here's an example. Where I work we had a chili cookoff. I asked the guy who won the cookoff for his recipe. Turns out everything in the recipe came from a can, except the chili seasoning which came from a pouch that said "McCormick Chili Seasoning Mix". The saddest thing is, it was actually the best chili in the contest. Minnesota has a lot of great things, but in general the food goes downhill the further from the equator you go, and Minnesota is pretty far from it.
Mr Tyson has reminded us in several videos that we would have to be aware of the exact time and exact location from the perspective of our galaxy or even universe when time traveling. I wonder if those constant changes and fluctuations are why the quantum level is so uncertain and probabilistic.
I don’t do concerts or anything, but I would go see a chuck nice special on science.
❤ for Neil and Chuck! My favorite UA-cam channel! Funny, educational, safe, inspirational, #mindblown, real, true, respectful, acceptance, humanity! Some of the things that go through my mind when I watch your videos. ❤❤❤❤
Neil and Chuck. I like ur team chemistry. Keep up the great work 🕉🕊🕊🕊👍🏾
One love brother's
I just realized that these two are practically family in the way they speak to each other. An unfaltering duo if I've ever seen one.
27:26 I get it Chuck, I'm high right now and my mind's getting extra blown!
I'm going down some weird rabbit holes just trying to wrap my head around time travel. Definitely no THC while watching these guys.
Finding Neptune.
Novel testable predictions. This is why science is our most reliable method for measuring reality.
Awesome idea for a comedy special Chuck! Should be great, I'm normally not that into stand up comedy but that sounds like it would be super entertaining! Lovely!
Chuck is the best hype man ever!! Love you guys
@24:05 Violetta question so important, that youtube had to throw in a commercial right before Chuck asked it😂😂😂
That question he wishes people would ask is exactly what I've been wondering myself about physics being the same throughout time and space.
Awesome as always. Thanks both. Thanks all the people making it happen
thanks again, always a relief to hear good conversations.
Doctor Tyson, with regard to 4th-Dimensional surgery, there was a pilot made in 1995 that was, unfortunately, not picked up as a TV series. The pilot was called "White Dwarf". One of the features of the show was that a doctor could use a special "glove" that actually did what you suggested - clean out arteries, etc.
Far out
In answer to Violetta's question.... imagine if you had to take a 'run up' to travel through time (along the lines of Back to the Future), would you need to calculate it in Seconds per Metre?
Hi, what's the diff between a virtual particle heading into a black hole, but it's taking an infinite amount of time to get to the event horizon ( infinite equals the life of the universe?), but gets converted to hawking radiation, and the tired light phenomenon?
So I’m not a scientist but I think you’re mixing some things up here. Anyone reading this please feel free to correct me. A particle does not take an infinite amount of time to reach the event horizon, but rather the singularity. And virtual particles in the context of hawking radiation is completely separate from the hypothetical particle heading into a black hole. The radiation is basically the energy from the black hole spontaneously forming particles but one half falls back into the black hole and the other radiates away thus lowering the mass/energy of the black hole slightly.
I don’t drink coffee, so maybe I’ll become a patron instead seems quite affordable. Especially if I’m only getting one a month couldn’t say I could accomplish that if I started drinking coffee.
Congratulations Lord Nice cant wait to here more about your special!
@39:15. Interesting topic. I believe there are interdimensional life forms.
26:00 Proposal for the term for the speed of time: Chronocity. I think this is a really important concept we need to be considering, because that value, the relative speed of time, will change as we start to travel at fractions of the speed of light.
Follow up to that, are we factoring the cronocity of the earth as it travels through the solar system, the solar system as it travels through the milky way, and the galaxy as it travels through space when we are calculating things like the Hubble Constant? Could the perspective that the universe is expanding be a lensing effect of our own chronocity?
Thank you for great content. This here is a reminder.
☀️Please remember to exhale.

You can tell how excited Neil got talking about Newtons laws finding Neptune because that New York accent came out super hard when he says "right over here" 🤣
3 mins in and im already smiling gleefully cos of chuck
A science comedy special from Chuck? Sign me up!
27:00 Maybe just the derivative (or maybe the Hamiltonian) of the time traveler's spacetime interval?
i love these videos you learn so much. and love the way you two bounce off each other :) top stuff
Fine!!! Just paid for my subscription lol y'all talked me into it.
Violetta, your question surprised Uncle Niel. Astrophysics needs you!
Really like these two together. Delightful.
Love watching this, pure brilliance mixed with fun🔥💯
Dr. Tyson. I plan you see you in New York on the 20th. My birthday is on the 21st. First, what is the website to be able to ask questions/support you? Second, do you allow questions after your lectures? Or EVEN BETTER, it'd be the best and most memorable birthday I would've EVER had if I could meet you and ask you a few questions in person. If not, 😢 but I have at least 3 questions I NEED your perspective and genius on these questions
To the first question (Amanda): Neil, someone DID ask the question you suggested. It's the reason why some physicists are exploring the possibility that Λ (cosmological constant) is not constant in time. It has been suggested that dark energy may be weaker now than it once was, which might explain the Hubble tension and the σ_8 tension.
Maybe they asked because you suggested it?
Wow, you guys are killin it today!😂
Why don't we think of Energy as the 5th dimension?
We don't exist in height x width x depth x time without energy. Energy manifests in the ways that it does due to the quanta, so that could be 6th - and perhaps we need to invert the order, to make more sense of it: quanta may be older than the universe itself, and allow for matter to take shape and depth, following specific modes of time and direction of travel, at rates seeming to vary due to quantum or vacuum forces. Energy is the literal unraveling-of-events and the philosophy of action and reaction, necessary for all other things to manifest. Something quantum occurred, and the occurrence itself may have been on a scale colossal enough to start the big bang, one which would be entirely invisible to us without the means to view the universe through not only light, but thought, and consciousness.
The information gathered from light are 6-dimensional, I argue. Our thought synapses, brain functions, and bodily health all rely on fluid transfers and electricity, primarily. The ability for life to cognize beyond itself is a potential for whatever life adapts best to its reality, and that reality nurtures it carefully. Earth is our reality, and the anecdotal evidence for our math. Fortunately, we've adapted codified language and numerical mathematics into society, and can harness the brilliance of engineering as it has ascended humanity into its own dimension, skirting through time to achieve the ability to destroy the planet's ecosystem overnight.
While that is certainly not our goal, it stands as a testament to natural destiny, that we must begin considering the Universe more seriously. Primarily, by respecting that the forces beyond our planet are on a magnitude which cannot be organically imagined, that distances are on scales unreachable by us in our lifetime but future generations may yet visit some distant system or planet, and that death fights us every step of the way. Our bodies are designed for Earth, and for some people there are much more significant limitations to that. If we are not perfectly able, our minds are sitting idly by, used nowhere near their potential. It is thought which designs our existence on this planet, as well as all life on it. No other dimension "obeys" thought but us - whatever the convergence of chemicals in our brains determines that to be.
Thought must exist as some quasi-algorithmic function, repeating itself daily, in order to resist reverting to an otherwise basic state of existence - death of the mind. Sterility. Reality unfolds before us, and we retain information not only of sight, but our other senses as well. In fact, sight is simply photons hitting our eyes, and our brains processing an image, usually its best guess. The margin of error on what we see, physiologically speaking, is nothing compared to our unique interpretations of taste, smell, feel, and sound. The foods we eat, candles we like, beds we prefer, and music preference. The concept of individuality is born of thought, and is present in many creatures capable of such. The Universe experiences itself subjectively through its 6-dimensions, and now through humans who are discovering these aspects.
Self-discovery is an important milestone for evolution in earthly biology. It also describes what is occurring through us, at an accelerating pace, in fact. We are a medium of this higher dimension.
