Many of you have asked why the arms on a snowflake tend to have similar branches and plates on them, showing symmetry even though they can't "communicate" obviously. So I wrote this explanation (with pretty pictures!) up on the blog: www.itsokaytobesmart.com/post/72704847892/youve-watched-this-weeks-video-on-the-science
+MADDEMO Random does exist, but for the longest time it was impossible for an algorithm to produce a random number. I'm not 100% on this but I believe there is now, that reads the background radiation of the universe or something that has been determined to be truly random with no pattern, and creates a number based off that.
+David Wilson But then each output was still driven by something, if you get me? So energy from the big bang was placed not randomly but because of what ever reason put it there. Energy displacement for instance would not be randomly scattered, it would have moved to place by energy that was in place to do what ever it does. Then an algorithm is following a method/rule of some sort so it was all decision based on algorithm from a pattern...can't see how anything can be truly random...or am i taking the meaning a little too far? lol
You didn't explain why snowflakes are symmetrical. Sure, water molecules freeze in hexagonal crystals, and arms are most likely to form off the points of the hexagon, but why are two arms on opposite sides of the hexagon usually the same shape?
@Htx457 What the hell. I guess the science behind crystallization could answer this question. 2 things come to my mind. The center of the snowflake at the moment of bloom must be symmetric, therefore the orientation of the frozen water molecules of the initial shape on each of its peaks are the same. The other molecules add themselves to the crystal in an orientation that depends on the orientation of the other molecules they "stick" to. Also, the air properties (pressure, temperature and humidity) must be alike all around the snowflake when it blooms, that way each arm grows with about an equal amount of water molecules therefore they have about the same length.
Htx457 why are you so angry that someone answered a question? How is discussing atmospheric conditions akin to religious rambling? Are meteorologists like cult leaders to you? Also, they never said their “mechanistic structure” explanation was new, so why get mad? Also they were answering someone else’s question. If it didn’t help you, get over it. It wasn’t for you
Amazing! There's so much order and precision ... how can you look at one and say it is not a design? Bentley studied them for 50 years, so if there were identical ones... he probably would have found them. His study brings forth real science and his obsession is understandable because they are absolutely beautiful!
to me the fact that a point in the upper left side of a snowflake branches (macroscopically) exactly like a point in the lower right side is a plain miracle. The overlap of EM fields of countless atoms determine the likelyhood of a branch and the type of the branch in a specific point and the fact that the symmetry is maintained at such macroscale is astonishing. I cannot wrap my mind around it. Termal jigling, crystal offsets, pressure/temperature/humidity differentials across the snowflake... when you account for those you should sink quickly into caos, such precise symmetry of the surface tension and the overall EM strenght and orientation cannot be maintained... and, instead, it is.

@@ingtii4320 and for us to be an accident, we would have to be one of a really low % of chance to happen, which is almost impossible. Everything has a source of origin.
So here's my snowflake story: Years ago, I was in a ski club and we did a trip to Vermont for a weekend. Me and another guy I'd just met had just skied the last few runs of the day, and as the sun was getting low in the sky he took me aside and told me how much he enjoyed our time together...because it took his mind off something: He had been engaged to a beautiful woman, but it fell apart. And this was the day they were to have been married! Now just as he had begun to tell his tale, it started snowing. And snowflakes were beginning to collect on his ski jacket. But these were not the kind of snowflakes we normally see. No, they were the kind you think only exist in postcards. Perfectly formed...like they had been stamped out by a fancy hole puncher. Maybe it was something about the Vermont air...but I'd never seen anything like it. So this guy is pouring his heart out to me, and the whole time I had to bite my tongue resisting the urge to say "Holy crap, dude, look at those cool snowflakes!" To this day, the guy hasn't realized that the coolest snowflakes ever were forming right on his jacket. I never saw him again, nor snowflakes that looked quite like that!
Did you ever reflect back and wonder if this amazing occurrence was to chase the beautiful unique woman that he was letting slip through his fingers 😒 🤔
The only thing i can think of is when you stated the simple reason why the arm grew there was due to the fact it stuck out further increasing the chance water would attach there. Snowflakes are symmetrical though. If there reason the arm started there was because it stuck out further then wouldnt water have to hit the points equally all the time. If the arm started there due to water landing there and they are symmetrical thats amazing cause it hits all points the same every flake. One of us is missing something. Stay smart.
The hexagonal shape is due to the packing of water molecules. Just like a table salt crystal is a cube, water crystals will form a hexagonal plate. Then, after that is formed, the corners that stick out are sites of "nucleation", and chance takes over like you said.
"of course we know there is no design in a snowflake" Of course. "Depending on temperature and humidity, and a lot of factors that scientists don't even understand..." Of course.
"...and then randomness takes over". But hang on, if the arms grow "randomly" then why are the six arms identical? The initial symmetry shouldnt have anything to do with that if the arms then suddenly grew from "randomness". So clearly it cant be randomness, because then each arm would be different, and so it must be tied in some way to the initial symmetry. Not random.
Gravity of snowflake based in center (center of mass) attracts the most. From there, incoming water droplets hit and spread out evenly. The arms are each a result of 1/6th of the impact from each and every water molecule that branches from the center.
GroovingPict GroovingPict at 1:35 he says "we know there was no design .... " laws of physics is what make this happen. God created laws of physics. And it serve its purpose in all of creation. To explain simply, it's like as if he said "engineers made a car factory to build cars... BUT we know the cars are not made by design.... " uhhhhh .... uhhhh ... yeahhhh . "Randomness takes over" physics is NOT RANDOMNESS! Please the guy who wrote this needs to call me to learn . "Chance and physics " is what made them??? 😪😞 oh my.
take a closer look at a 'symmetrical' snowflake, you will notice that it isnt 100% symmetrical, but it seems symmetrical because two opposite sides of the same snowflake had almost the same weather conditions unlike a different snowflake
You didn't explain why each arm of a snowflake forms into the same shape. That's what I was really waiting for. If it's just random particles landing on the arms causing them to grow, then wouldn't each arm look completely different from the others?
It doesn't matter how many of these I watch, they're *always* fascinating AND entertaining (bonus!). Thank you all so much for doing such awesome work (and providing a great many teaching aides!) :-D
It doesn't explain why each arm of a snowflake grows exactly the same shape, despite being apart from other. How does one arm know the shape of the others? You might argue that the shape of each arm is determined by the initial ice crystal shape, but it doesn't explain the mechanical process behind it.
this was so beautiful... just like humans... "Snowflakes are symmetrical, but they're not perfect. They're ordered, but they're created in disorder, every random branch re-tells their history, that singular journey they took to get here, and most of all they're fleeting and temporary. Even if sometimes they don't look so unique on the outside, if we look within, we can see that they're truly unique after all."
There is a very precise design that suggests that there is a creative and capable designer. Randomness cannot produce designs of this precision and beauty
You could have two structurally identical snow flakes, notionally, including isotope locations in the structure. The more important thing is that they occupy separate physical spaces, the exclusion principle basically says no two things can be identical, because they can't be literally in the same space and time and state.
@1.35 He said, "We know there is no design in a snowflake." really? The DESIGN is hexagonal lattice: Snowflakes have a six-sided structure because ice does. When water freezes into individual ice crystals, its molecules stack together to form a hexagonal lattice. As the ice crystal grows, water can freeze onto its six corners multiple times, causing the snowflake to develop a unique, yet still six-sided shape. Look, it's ok to say the word, "design." You're not gonna go to Evolutional Hell or anything, just because things have a design doesn't mean there is a God or anything...right? Haha
@Nebula nɛbjʊlə I meant human made math to understand nature so there is an origin to it. On the other hand it's nearly if not at all impossible for the same root design to exist in many different places and be just from chance. It's not difficult to conclude it all comes down to the same source and it is their maker.
this video served as an inspiration for my oral exams, depending the relation of snow to a parallelogram. you included the atomic shits in a periodical table, thank you. keep growing.
NOT ONLY ARE NO TWO SNOWFLAKES THE SAME BUT! Did you know that if you put a snowflake in a test tube, melt it, then re-crystallize it it would go back to its ORIGINAL SHAPE! This fact was so COOL it blew me away
@caleb I like your enthusiasm, but I'd need to see proof or at least some evidence before believing this. You would need to control and perfectly mimic : the changing and/or constant pressure, temperature, presence of water vapor and types of particles available for nucleation in order to do this.
1:34 "There is no design in a snow flake"?.....Oh so I guess "it's ok to be stupid too." Next time I look at a circuit board or any complicated structure for that matter I'll just say that a tornado built it. Also, next time I see a simple "rule" like a line of computer or legal code I'll simply say it just came to be and that no engeneer and lawyer made it.
I can't even begin to understand the line of reasoning that brought you to that analogy. Look up the Dunning-Kruger effect and then look in the mirror. People like you shouldn't be allowed to vote.
1:47 Dude, you literally just came to show ignorance. You didn’t come to learn something new. If you did you wouldn’t miss the literal start of the video where he talks about this
Thanks for that great video! I am currently working on an art assignment to get accepted in art uni and the topic I have to create something to is "snowflake"! Your video was well done and gave me some great insight and ideas for the works im gonna create! Thank you!
Aha! I think I see what you are talking about. If one draws a series of circles inside circles, each increasing in radius equal to the previous, and draws a hexagon with elongating edges in the centre circle, they can see that the series of circles could be labelled with information of the snowflake at a certain time of descent. (e.g. 300m above ground, high humidity, low winds, produces branching because enough humidity; 200m above ground, low humidity, low winds, no branches produced because not enough water available; 100m above ground, high humidity, high winds, no branches produced on arms because the wind blows water molecules too quickly to adhere to snowflake)
I read your reasoning on the symmetry. Well explain how a scientist at Cal Tech makes symmetrical snow flakes in a lab, with no wind and falling. It makes way more sense that asymmetric snowflakes seen outside were at one point symmetric but became distorted in the fall. Not the other way around.
He’s making a leap of faith from science to religion by saying “of course we know there’s no design behind snowflakes.” He doesn’t back that statement up, just says, “of course.” Why of course? There’s a design behind the video. Why does the universe necessarily have less design than human documentary? Other than that it’s a fascinating video.

I'd like to thank you for your hard work that is supposed to enlighten and teach all of us two major things - to strive, and hunger for knowledge; because knowledge is power, as we all know!
Hows that evidence for god? Its evidence for emergence. If it was created by god than god is lazy, because that would mean god just copies each side of the snowflake.
I listen to what you said at the very end (your new metaphor) a couple of times trying to understand what you meant by that I couldn't understand it, but by the 4th or 5th time something just clicked I don't know what but I started to cry. Thank you, I feel like a weight has been taken off my shoulders.
But technically two snowflakes could have the same structure and have the same concentrations of deuterium, yeah? So there isn’t an underlying physical reason two snowflakes have ever been the same (in terms of having the same structure). Plus, does the deuterium impact greatly the crystallographic structure?
"There is no design in a snowflake"? Are we looking at the same images? Humans need to get real with themselves and realize there is NO WAY we don't have a Creator.
1:20 "Never got married, never moved out of his moms house, and took pictures of snowflakes for 50 years." I don't know if I should be happy or sad at how relatable this is...
@@sebastianhuber6865, And if anyone who believes you are considered mentally able? Don't talk to us and our God like that. You don't know who you dealing with.
Actually, since we don't know what forces cause nature to be the way it is, we don't know if there was active creation process behind snowflakes, let alone the universe. Of course this is not necessarily the most likely possibility, but it is certainly a possibility.
The structure of a snowflake can be found in just 6 water molecules. The angle between the two hydrogen atoms is 105 degrees. This makes the 6 fold symmetry of a snow flake crystal. That crystal starts as a tiny speck of dust which catches water vapour out of the air and eventually forms the simplest of snow flake shapes (tiny hexagons called diamond dust). Out of a million Hydrogen atoms a few hundred of them are holding on to a neutron as well (deuterium). In you, about 1 in 3000 hydrogen atoms will be deuterium. This is the same for snowflakes and why they won't be identical.
Wilson Bentley Quotes Under the microscope, I found that snowflakes were miracles of beauty; and it seemed a shame that this beauty should not be seen and appreciated by others. Every crystal was a masterpiece of design and no one design was ever repeated., When a snowflake melted, that design was forever lost.
Okay soo...i'm really confused with the comment section, what what has to do god with solid water structures form in the winter? Like everyone here is saying that this proves that God exists and others just said that we are not specials, like...what happen here!? D':
Order and Beauty in nature is what leads many to believe that God exists. We certainly conclude a designer when we see a motorcycle. Could we not also argue that the motor cycle design also designed out of necessity due to brain chemistry? This of course leads to determinism, which most reject. To invoke "RANDOMNESS" at every juncture seems little different than invoking God..............unless randomness is not really random. Few believe that. To say "nature did it" or as the host says "there is no design" is a bit cheeky and doesn't penetrate very deeply. Why does the snowflake show beauty and order? "BECAUSE THE ANGLE OF THE HYDROGEN BOND IS 104.5 DEGREES, IDIOT!!" Why is the angle 104.5? BECAUSE OF THE QUANTUM MECHANICS INVOLVED!! and the materialism argument goes on. Ultimately the materials says "It is the way it is, because of the laws of nature'. But why are the laws of nature the way they are???? And what do we know about the Laws of Nature (LON)? Well, the LON are: 1) Immaterial 2) Act ON the material 3) Create the Universe from nothing 4) Beyond space and time because the existed prior to creation for they guided material and material from the initial point of creation. 5) Eternal for that which is beyond space and time is eternal and not subject to change. Sure even a casual observer sees here the Biblical definition of God.
@baileysmithful Thank you for your statement of faith but you must realize that is precisely what it is. You have no evidence whatsoever that the laws of nature do not exist beyond space and time. Now I do agree that the laws of nature bear no moral claims so is it not odd that most of our public discussion is about moral issues (you're a bigot, you are uncaring, you're lazy, you're............................) Curious isn't it?
@baileysmithful Materialism is a philosophical world view unsubstantiated by science simply because science cannot do such a thing. Science is a methodology which acts on material WHICH HAS BEEN GIVEN TO IT. Science cannot ultimately tell you why (though it can tell you how) Boyle's Law accounts for the behavior of low pressure gases, only that it does. Science can tell my how the Keurig machine works but it cannot tell me 'why' it works. The 'why' questions is answered in that my wife wants a cup of coffee. Ultimately we cannot say why the Cosmos behaves as it does, only that IT DOES. "How" relates to mechanism, 'Why" relate to meaning and purpose. You cannot look at material and determine what should and should not be done. You cannot look at a stone and make a judgement about truth telling. This is to say you cannot get "Ought" from "Is". We all come to Life's moral questions with predetermined suppositions but those suppositions cannot be derived from science. The atheistic materialist claims there is nothing beyond matter but then goes on to make moral judgements. I think this is inconsistent. Your hydrogen cannot tell my hydrogen what to do (and vice versa). So YES, it is curious that the materialist makes moral judgement, knowing that material alone can provide substantiation for such claims. I don't do "Burden Shifting" thing. You come to the table with your claims and I will come with mine. "See, the laws of nature as science describes them are not a force: they don't exist outside of spacetime and impose themselves upon it." "Science" doesn't "SAY" anything. Some 'scientists' with predetermined world views, biases and presuppositions (as we all have) may say the Laws of Nature don't exist beyond space and time, others may say they do. However, science has NO POSSIBLE way to substantiate that statement. It is not a scientific question, it is a philosophical one. It might be worth noting at this point that 'science" has no mechanism to say what a Force is or even what Energy is. It can tell us how material behaves under their influence but what these tow entities are, no one know. You say science is a system of "thought" but science cannot say what thought actually is or where it precisely resides. Don't get me wrong, I love science. I'm a Chemical Engineer and teach math but we must not make a god or a world view out of science alone.
God is so incredibly he is the designer “For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.” Romans 1:20
The fact that the arms are identical all the way around makes it hard to believe that it’s “random”, idk though, our universe is full of amazing wonders
This is really fun to learn about. I've always appreciated snowflakes. I use to live in an area where it was guaranteed to snow every winter. Now, I don't and.. it's something I miss. A lot.

They are simply descriptions of observed phenomena and have a mathematical foundation through which predictions can be made or closely approximated.

@@-villa4575 Right. My point is that those patterns and phenomena raise the question of a Divine Creator, which is what I think the original comment was trying to point to, and which isn't simply answered by looking at the laws of physics. He quotes, "There is no design. They are formed by the laws of physics," and then suggests that there might be an entity that "allows" those laws to be, thus (rightly) calling into question the claim that there's "no design." But my point was that it might be more helpful to say "cause" rather than "allow" if we're raising questions about design.
@@deborahomalley5480 But what we have are natural explanations that involve this physical reality, thus, rendering the "divine creator" unnecessary.

I love your videos and I loved the metaphor at the end that snowflakes are not perfect and they are fleeting but inside they are uique... that is just like us humans ... those words just blew my mind :)
It's Okay To Be Smart Just think about physics and science for a moment. How everything can be logically explained, the way the laws of physics created the universe (and us) as well as keep everything running the way they do. Whenever something happens you can always say this is why it happened and this will probably happen next. It's funny because wouldn't you expect an accidental universe with no design or purpose to make no sense? I feel like the fact that physics and science exists does not disprove God but proves him. They definitely point to an obvious design. I know some people will say that the universe just happened to work out this way but u gotta keep in mind that there are literally an infinite other ways which the universe could have turned out that we could never exist, and millions of billions of coincidences necessary for us to have gotten to the point that we have from the original start of the universe. Just a thought.
wilson Arimah The system makes so much sense to you because you are a part of it. The thing is, as unlikely as our existence is, our not existing would be even more improbable. The Universe is a vast and ancient place, unlikely events failing to occur would be a curious and improbable thing in a system as complex and massive as this.
+wilson Arimah Maybe you should watch cosmos by carl sagan and then share your opinion cause right now it seems like it's so utterly and dreadfully biased.
Mike Username Which is more probable: "From nothing came everything," or "From something came everything?" You cannot get something from nothing. Therefore, considering that things do exist, something must exist eternally. And we know it is not the universe, as the universe had a beginning and therefore is not eternal. Whatever existed before the universe had the power to create matter from non-matter. Also, considering that the values of the laws of physics are such as to permit the existence of a stable enough universe as to permit the existence of intelligent life, we can further ascribe intelligence to this creating source.
I must respectfully disagree with you purely on logical grounds. Let's say we made a game incorporating all of the laws of physics known in this universe we inhabit. In this game universe we created, our code enables snowflakes to form, the snowflakes are the bi product of our initial settings. Therefore any snowflake that forms in our game universe, is designed. That same logic applies to our universe. Some scientist and inventors, such as Elon Musk ( Space X guy ) and Neil Tyson ( cosmologist guy ) and many others now believe we live in a virtual reality for various reasons. I personally think they are closer than the naturalist who is still refusing to come out of his box and admit things like, Information, Consciousness, laws of logic, time, and other things clearly defy naturalism. Anyways propositions clearly run our universe, CAUSE and EFFECT is a proposition. If Cause then Effect. This propositional property of the universe allows us to mirror their objective existence using mathematical medium. Just as a painter mirrors an objective object in paint medium. Propositions are only the result of minds at present, no new propositions arise spontaneously or even by necessity. Therefore based on best inference, the propositions / rules that govern our universe, by means of best inference must be the bi product of an intelligent consciousness. This means that the snowflake is designed after all. In fact, it means anything naturally formed and non naturally formed is designed, since all lines stem back to the laws which themselves stem back to a designer.

Is it God that is awesome? Or is it the void of the unexplainable that is awesome? The concept of God bridges the gap between knowledge and the unknown. What is real?
My main objection to 'each snowflake is unique' comes from the fact that can apply to almost anything. No two pencils are unique. No two diamonds are unique. No two computer chips are unique. Outside of nanoscopic, flawless, isotopically pure particles, there's always going to be some variation. Actualy identical objects would ironically be some of the most unique objects in all of reality.

No it’s not nice to be nice it’s ok to be smart wait what big Chung is
I love it when snowflakes form large enough to be able to catch a single flake on your glove and examine it with the naked eye.
You got me at " He never got married, never moved out of his mom's house"
There might not be a design after every *specific* snowflake, but surely there's design behind the complex system behind them.
That's not true. God indeed actualizes reality itself, and He must do so in quantity and measure.
"...and then randomness takes over". But hang on, if the arms grow "randomly" then why are the six arms identical? The initial symmetry shouldnt have anything to do with that if the arms then suddenly grew from "randomness". So clearly it cant be randomness, because then each arm would be different, and so it must be tied in some way to the initial symmetry. Not random.
+GroovingPict I think the symmetry shows some communication between the arms.
Gravity of snowflake based in center (center of mass) attracts the most. From there, incoming water droplets hit and spread out evenly. The arms are each a result of 1/6th of the impact from each and every water molecule that branches from the center.
GroovingPict GroovingPict at 1:35 he says "we know there was no design .... " laws of physics is what make this happen. God created laws of physics. And it serve its purpose in all of creation. To explain simply, it's like as if he said "engineers made a car factory to build cars... BUT we know the cars are not made by design.... " uhhhhh .... uhhhh ... yeahhhh . "Randomness takes over" physics is NOT RANDOMNESS! Please the guy who wrote this needs to call me to learn . "Chance and physics " is what made them??? 😪😞 oh my.
He explained why. Water molecules are more likely to go to the edges because they’re jutted out, so there is a build-up of molecules on those edges.
take a closer look at a 'symmetrical' snowflake, you will notice that it isnt 100% symmetrical, but it seems symmetrical because two opposite sides of the same snowflake had almost the same weather conditions unlike a different snowflake
You didn't explain why each arm of a snowflake forms into the same shape. That's what I was really waiting for. If it's just random particles landing on the arms causing them to grow, then wouldn't each arm look completely different from the others?
Epic ending! :)
IKR, Bob Ross ftw.

It doesn't matter how many of these I watch, they're *always* fascinating AND entertaining (bonus!). Thank you all so much for doing such awesome work (and providing a great many teaching aides!) :-D
Loved the happy little Bob Ross impression at the end :D
It doesn't explain why each arm of a snowflake grows exactly the same shape, despite being apart from other. How does one arm know the shape of the others? You might argue that the shape of each arm is determined by the initial ice crystal shape, but it doesn't explain the mechanical process behind it.
this was so beautiful... just like humans... "Snowflakes are symmetrical, but they're not perfect. They're ordered, but they're created in disorder, every random branch re-tells their history, that singular journey they took to get here, and most of all they're fleeting and temporary. Even if sometimes they don't look so unique on the outside, if we look within, we can see that they're truly unique after all."
There is a very precise design that suggests that there is a creative and capable designer. Randomness cannot produce designs of this precision and beauty
You could have two structurally identical snow flakes, notionally, including isotope locations in the structure. The more important thing is that they occupy separate physical spaces, the exclusion principle basically says no two things can be identical, because they can't be literally in the same space and time and state.
@1.35 He said, "We know there is no design in a snowflake." really? The DESIGN is hexagonal lattice:
Snowflakes have a six-sided structure because ice does. When water freezes into individual ice crystals, its molecules stack together to form a hexagonal lattice. As the ice crystal grows, water can freeze onto its six corners multiple times, causing the snowflake to develop a unique, yet still six-sided shape.
Look, it's ok to say the word, "design." You're not gonna go to Evolutional Hell or anything, just because things have a design doesn't mean there is a God or anything...right? Haha
4:54 how come something so perfectly proportioned be from "chance" it takes a maker to create it.
@Nebula nɛbjʊlə math didn't made itself either
@Nebula nɛbjʊlə I meant human made math to understand nature so there is an origin to it. On the other hand it's nearly if not at all impossible for the same root design to exist in many different places and be just from chance. It's not difficult to conclude it all comes down to the same source and it is their maker.
Wrong! Math, geometry and chemistry bring about everything in to existence.
Math is the basis of our reality
The laws of the universe were created, but not by this man made God most people speak of.
this video served as an inspiration for my oral exams, depending the relation of snow to a parallelogram. you included the atomic shits in a periodical table, thank you. keep growing.
NOT ONLY ARE NO TWO SNOWFLAKES THE SAME BUT!
Did you know that if you put a snowflake in a test tube, melt it, then re-crystallize it it would go back to its ORIGINAL SHAPE!
This fact was so COOL it blew me away
@caleb I like your enthusiasm, but I'd need to see proof or at least some evidence before believing this. You would need to control and perfectly mimic : the changing and/or constant pressure, temperature, presence of water vapor and types of particles available for nucleation in order to do this.
I love how snowflakes always have 6 points. And this video is exactly 6 minutes.
What did the snowflake say as it fell from the sky?

This is totally beautiful design.
1:34 "There is no design in a snow flake"?.....Oh so I guess "it's ok to be stupid too." Next time I look at a circuit board or any complicated structure for that matter I'll just say that a tornado built it. Also, next time I see a simple "rule" like a line of computer or legal code I'll simply say it just came to be and that no engeneer and lawyer made it.
I can't even begin to understand the line of reasoning that brought you to that analogy. Look up the Dunning-Kruger effect and then look in the mirror. People like you shouldn't be allowed to vote.
1:47 Dude, you literally just came to show ignorance. You didn’t come to learn something new. If you did you wouldn’t miss the literal start of the video where he talks about this
The snowflake is truly a testimony to God. Look how beautiful it is, the universe is supposed to be chaotic yet it's perfect...
I seriously can't say if you're being sarcastic or not
Thanks for that great video! I am currently working on an art assignment to get accepted in art uni and the topic I have to create something to is "snowflake"! Your video was well done and gave me some great insight and ideas for the works im gonna create! Thank you!
Aha! I think I see what you are talking about.
If one draws a series of circles inside circles, each increasing in radius equal to the previous, and draws a hexagon with elongating edges in the centre circle, they can see that the series of circles could be labelled with information of the snowflake at a certain time of descent. (e.g. 300m above ground, high humidity, low winds, produces branching because enough humidity; 200m above ground, low humidity, low winds, no branches produced because not enough water available; 100m above ground, high humidity, high winds, no branches produced on arms because the wind blows water molecules too quickly to adhere to snowflake)
I read your reasoning on the symmetry. Well explain how a scientist at Cal Tech makes symmetrical snow flakes in a lab, with no wind and falling. It makes way more sense that asymmetric snowflakes seen outside were at one point symmetric but became distorted in the fall. Not the other way around.
He’s making a leap of faith from science to religion by saying “of course we know there’s no design behind snowflakes.” He doesn’t back that statement up, just says, “of course.” Why of course? There’s a design behind the video. Why does the universe necessarily have less design than human documentary? Other than that it’s a fascinating video.

So, the presence of deuterium doesn't change the physical shape, just the invisble molecular structure? I'm confused

No 2 fingerprints
Jorge Mata So why the "appearance" of design? Could it be there is a Designer at the very core, at the atomic, physical level? Oh, perish the THOUGHT!
God must be making snowflakes. It explains why he allows genocide and infant mortality. He’s too busy making snowflakes to help people. Great guy.
Hows that evidence for god? Its evidence for emergence. If it was created by god than god is lazy, because that would mean god just copies each side of the snowflake.
wow, learning about gen z was pretty cool
Here in Finland we have snow every winter, except this.. o_O however, the biggest snow flakes i have seen have been about 2,5cm x 2,5cm. :)
I listen to what you said at the very end (your new metaphor) a couple of times trying to understand what you meant by that I couldn't understand it, but by the 4th or 5th time something just clicked I don't know what but I started to cry. Thank you, I feel like a weight has been taken off my shoulders.
Thank you! This was beautiful :-)
But technically two snowflakes could have the same structure and have the same concentrations of deuterium, yeah? So there isn’t an underlying physical reason two snowflakes have ever been the same (in terms of having the same structure). Plus, does the deuterium impact greatly the crystallographic structure?
"There is no design in a snowflake"? Are we looking at the same images? Humans need to get real with themselves and realize there is NO WAY we don't have a Creator.

Actually, since we don't know what forces cause nature to be the way it is, we don't know if there was active creation process behind snowflakes, let alone the universe. Of course this is not necessarily the most likely possibility, but it is certainly a possibility.
Its just cool.... the science behind it....I love all the videos of this channel tough I just saw about 3 today...first time and I subscribed:)
1:26 There's one that looks like the UA-cam Play logo!
cant find it
Shell B i saw it !
Whispering Owl FOUNT IT!
Still can't find it. Sorry, but can someone please explain...
The structure of a snowflake can be found in just 6 water molecules. The angle between the two hydrogen atoms is 105 degrees. This makes the 6 fold symmetry of a snow flake crystal. That crystal starts as a tiny speck of dust which catches water vapour out of the air and eventually forms the simplest of snow flake shapes (tiny hexagons called diamond dust). Out of a million Hydrogen atoms a few hundred of them are holding on to a neutron as well (deuterium). In you, about 1 in 3000 hydrogen atoms will be deuterium. This is the same for snowflakes and why they won't be identical.
"As we remove heat, things get colder" WELL NO DUH
Awesome! Great video mate, well produced, edited!
Wilson Bentley Quotes Under the microscope, I found that snowflakes were miracles of beauty; and it seemed a shame that this beauty should not be seen and appreciated by others. Every crystal was a masterpiece of design and no one design was ever repeated., When a snowflake melted, that design was forever lost.
You are a unique and beautiful snowflake ❄️.
Me: weeeeeeeeeeeh!😊❄️🌨️
There are 8 people like you.
Me: Yes, I am not alone.💪
Okay soo...i'm really confused with the comment section, what what has to do god with solid water structures form in the winter? Like everyone here is saying that this proves that God exists and others just said that we are not specials, like...what happen here!? D':
Yeah its stupid...
Order and Beauty in nature is what leads many to believe that God exists. We certainly conclude a designer when we see a motorcycle. Could we not also argue that the motor cycle design also designed out of necessity due to brain chemistry? This of course leads to determinism, which most reject. To invoke "RANDOMNESS" at every juncture seems little different than invoking God..............unless randomness is not really random. Few believe that.
To say "nature did it" or as the host says "there is no design" is a bit cheeky and doesn't penetrate very deeply. Why does the snowflake show beauty and order? "BECAUSE THE ANGLE OF THE HYDROGEN BOND IS 104.5 DEGREES, IDIOT!!" Why is the angle 104.5? BECAUSE OF THE QUANTUM MECHANICS INVOLVED!! and the materialism argument goes on. Ultimately the materials says "It is the way it is, because of the laws of nature'. But why are the laws of nature the way they are???? And what do we know about the Laws of Nature (LON)?
Well, the LON are:
1) Immaterial
2) Act ON the material
3) Create the Universe from nothing
4) Beyond space and time because the existed prior to creation for they guided material and material from the initial point of creation.
5) Eternal for that which is beyond space and time is eternal and not subject to change.
Sure even a casual observer sees here the Biblical definition of God.
@baileysmithful Thank you for your statement of faith but you must realize that is precisely what it is. You have no evidence whatsoever that the laws of nature do not exist beyond space and time. Now I do agree that the laws of nature bear no moral claims so is it not odd that most of our public discussion is about moral issues (you're a bigot, you are uncaring, you're lazy, you're............................) Curious isn't it?
@baileysmithful Materialism is a philosophical world view unsubstantiated by science simply because science cannot do such a thing. Science is a methodology which acts on material WHICH HAS BEEN GIVEN TO IT. Science cannot ultimately tell you why (though it can tell you how) Boyle's Law accounts for the behavior of low pressure gases, only that it does. Science can tell my how the Keurig machine works but it cannot tell me 'why' it works. The 'why' questions is answered in that my wife wants a cup of coffee. Ultimately we cannot say why the Cosmos behaves as it does, only that IT DOES. "How" relates to mechanism, 'Why" relate to meaning and purpose.
You cannot look at material and determine what should and should not be done. You cannot look at a stone and make a judgement about truth telling. This is to say you cannot get "Ought" from "Is". We all come to Life's moral questions with predetermined suppositions but those suppositions cannot be derived from science. The atheistic materialist claims there is nothing beyond matter but then goes on to make moral judgements. I think this is inconsistent. Your hydrogen cannot tell my hydrogen what to do (and vice versa). So YES, it is curious that the materialist makes moral judgement, knowing that material alone can provide substantiation for such claims. I don't do "Burden Shifting" thing. You come to the table with your claims and I will come with mine.
"See, the laws of nature as science describes them are not a force: they don't exist outside of spacetime and impose themselves upon it."
"Science" doesn't "SAY" anything. Some 'scientists' with predetermined world views, biases and presuppositions (as we all have) may say the Laws of Nature don't exist beyond space and time, others may say they do. However, science has NO POSSIBLE way to substantiate that statement. It is not a scientific question, it is a philosophical one. It might be worth noting at this point that 'science" has no mechanism to say what a Force is or even what Energy is. It can tell us how material behaves under their influence but what these tow entities are, no one know. You say science is a system of "thought" but science cannot say what thought actually is or where it precisely resides.
Don't get me wrong, I love science. I'm a Chemical Engineer and teach math but we must not make a god or a world view out of science alone.
Because God creates everything.

"There is no design....
They are formed by the laws of physics."
Then they are designed by that which allows them to be
But allowing something to be doesn't mean that you designed it. Design means you make something be to serve a purpose or function.
@@-villa4575 Well, I think the original statement should have been "they are designed by that which CAUSES them to be." The laws of physics explain a lot, but they don't explain their own existence.
@@deborahomalley5480 They aren't meant to explain their own existence. They are simply descriptions of observed phenomena and have a mathematical foundation through which predictions can be made or closely approximated. The laws are not conscious entities, they are human constructs that help us understand certain patterns.
@@-villa4575 Right. My point is that those patterns and phenomena raise the question of a Divine Creator, which is what I think the original comment was trying to point to, and which isn't simply answered by looking at the laws of physics. He quotes, "There is no design. They are formed by the laws of physics," and then suggests that there might be an entity that "allows" those laws to be, thus (rightly) calling into question the claim that there's "no design." But my point was that it might be more helpful to say "cause" rather than "allow" if we're raising questions about design.
@@deborahomalley5480 But what we have are natural explanations that involve this physical reality, thus, rendering the "divine creator" unnecessary. What makes you believe or invoke the supernatural?? Especially since most phenomena explained by the laws of physics can be reproduced. I'm curious as to hat makes you believe that the laws of physics that we know of today have anything to do with the divine?

What do you think arranged those molecules to form those intricate designs of endless configurations?
Physics.
It's Okay To Be Smart Just think about physics and science for a moment. How everything can be logically explained, the way the laws of physics created the universe (and us) as well as keep everything running the way they do. Whenever something happens you can always say this is why it happened and this will probably happen next. It's funny because wouldn't you expect an accidental universe with no design or purpose to make no sense? I feel like the fact that physics and science exists does not disprove God but proves him. They definitely point to an obvious design. I know some people will say that the universe just happened to work out this way but u gotta keep in mind that there are literally an infinite other ways which the universe could have turned out that we could never exist, and millions of billions of coincidences necessary for us to have gotten to the point that we have from the original start of the universe. Just a thought.
wilson Arimah The system makes so much sense to you because you are a part of it. The thing is, as unlikely as our existence is, our not existing would be even more improbable. The Universe is a vast and ancient place, unlikely events failing to occur would be a curious and improbable thing in a system as complex and massive as this.
+wilson Arimah Maybe you should watch cosmos by carl sagan and then share your opinion cause right now it seems like it's so utterly and dreadfully biased.
Mike Username Which is more probable: "From nothing came everything," or "From something came everything?"
You cannot get something from nothing. Therefore, considering that things do exist, something must exist eternally.
And we know it is not the universe, as the universe had a beginning and therefore is not eternal.
Whatever existed before the universe had the power to create matter from non-matter.
Also, considering that the values of the laws of physics are such as to permit the existence of a stable enough universe as to permit the existence of intelligent life, we can further ascribe intelligence to this creating source.
Great video. One of your best of all time. Especially the ending.
I must respectfully disagree with you purely on logical grounds. Let's say we made a game incorporating all of the laws of physics known in this universe we inhabit. In this game universe we created, our code enables snowflakes to form, the snowflakes are the bi product of our initial settings. Therefore any snowflake that forms in our game universe, is designed. That same logic applies to our universe. Some scientist and inventors, such as Elon Musk ( Space X guy ) and Neil Tyson ( cosmologist guy ) and many others now believe we live in a virtual reality for various reasons. I personally think they are closer than the naturalist who is still refusing to come out of his box and admit things like, Information, Consciousness, laws of logic, time, and other things clearly defy naturalism. Anyways propositions clearly run our universe, CAUSE and EFFECT is a proposition. If Cause then Effect. This propositional property of the universe allows us to mirror their objective existence using mathematical medium. Just as a painter mirrors an objective object in paint medium. Propositions are only the result of minds at present, no new propositions arise spontaneously or even by necessity. Therefore based on best inference, the propositions / rules that govern our universe, by means of best inference must be the bi product of an intelligent consciousness. This means that the snowflake is designed after all. In fact, it means anything naturally formed and non naturally formed is designed, since all lines stem back to the laws which themselves stem back to a designer.
Please add the last part in about being unique on the inside in the description, it was beautiful.
