How about instead of tethers made from impossiblenium we assume the bedrock of Minecraft is a superconducting magnetic rock that lines the underside of the world and we are revolving around a magnetar?
I love how it still ends with “sincerely, Austin” even though the video didn’t start with “Dear mojang/my discord server/people who won’t stop harassing me”
I love "THE SCIENCE" so much. I'm pretty sure Austin could just yell the measurements and directions for his grandma's family cupcake recipe and I would still be just as entertained.
I gotta say man, I only really watched game theory due to THE SCIENCE, so I’m very glad that you are still continuing to upload on your own channel. It really means a lot, not only to me, but to all of us, and we want to thank you for that.
Yea, I agree. I always hated game theory, and sadly, I stopped watching THE SCIENCE content when Austin moved over there since it wasn't on a channel I was recommended anymore and I wasn't subbing to game theory just for one narrator. I'm glad he's back here. I just hope that all the changes Austin made has the effect he wanted them to, whether it be more time for family, more time for himself, or more time spent on projects he wants to do instead of what bigger players tell him to do all day. I just hope it makes him happy in the end.
@@MissInformer Let me tell you, It was HARD combing through every video to find the SCIENCE, they didn't make any distinctions so I'd have to watch a bit of any NON FNAF video to see if it was a good one, so MY recommended feed was FULL of game/movie/food Theory videos So happy that I was able to finally banish them!
As a student of physics right now, I almost understood everything about this video and it made my choice of studying physics not a waste. Also “The Science” video in opinion were one of the more entertaining formats and I’m glad your back.

"Gravity" would be different between the center and the edges of the flat plane. For example, the center of the plane would be closer to the center of rotation, lowering the centripetal force, and thus the perceived gravity (compared to other regions of the plane). The edges would be the opposite, where "gravity" would be higher. A Halo shape fixes this by bending the plane (which then, is no longer flat) so that every part of it is the same distance from what it orbits.
I think the world could be curved around the center without becoming non-flat (assuming that we’re willing to allow “flat” and “planar” to be two different things). As long as it’s not an orb, toroid, cylinder, cube, or some sort of other closed polyhedron, I think we could say it’s flat.
@@SpontaneousProcess or if the sun and moon both orbit the world, then make the world orbit from some point really far out, you could make the forces the same more or less across the whole plane. so lets say a distance from the black hole sagitarius a to the earth and a plane the size of a minecraft world would be more like a point on a theoretical circle. to counter balance so as to not need as strong and impossible anchor either the nether or another world could be on the same spinning axis but opposite the world. as said the sun and moon would be tethered off of the minecraft world then and not typical to how its in our world. we also dont know the gravity on either so they can be flat planes closer to the world
He pretty much chose the distance to the center of rotation arbitrarily, though, so if the actual radius is long enough, those differences will be neglectable.
@@SpontaneousProcess The problem with curving the plate is it would cause the sun to appear at a different angle in the sky when he teleports across the world.
I'd love more Minecraft videos, just maybe not ones discussing whether it's flat or not. But there's still so much to analyse, like how does the Warden's sense of hearing and smell compare to real world animals? Or what are the physical properties of the Nether and could two species of fungus evolve and grow into massive forests there? Or are the hunger and saturation values of different food items accurate? Great video Austin, can't wait to see more!
It makes me smile to see you come back to UA-cam, Austin. When I was younger your content was something that I would always come around to come and see, and it's great to see that you're back despite all the struggles and strife of the last few years.
Yes, I remember watching you all the time in prep for the release of Fallout 4 and afterward. Genuinely, I missed you and your goofy logic. You're like the video game V Sauce of 2014 ❤
How to debunk the ludicrous cosmology in this video in 3 easy steps: 1) Start a new Minecraft world 2) Start punching trees, as one does in a new Minecraft world 3) Notice that the upper logs do not fall when the ones below are removed, thereby proving that gravity as we know it IRL does not apply here and thus the entire latter half of the video working from premises of IRL gravity physics is entirely inapplicable.
If you consider the End poem (the bit of creative writing that shows up before the credits when you beat the game), you're... not _quite_ right, but closer to being right than wrong. It describes both the game and real life as being self-imposed illusions we use to prepare ourselves for some kind of higher state of being. So basically a simulation, yes.

Your insanity mixed with science is why I am following you here. I was beginning to wonder why I hadn’t seen any of your videos on Game Theorists. Happy to see you back! :)
You Mad Man!! All the memories from your previous proposal for this model are flooding back to me and you corrected the one major gripe I had with it: the day night cycle! Now how we to fix the problem we encountered on the Halo rings regarding projectiles/gunfights?
Glad you're back Austin! The SCIENCE! is my preferred playlist to put on when trying to sleep and seeing one drop in my sub box always makes my day better
im so happy that the quality of this video is the way it is. I really like this channel and Im happy you're still doing these. you were my favorite GT series, so im overjoyed that not only you continue to do this, but that you're doing it yourself. ill be here with you for as long as I can be =D
Austin, it's. So much worse. The sun revolves around **YOU**. Imagine taking a trip across the map? Imagine the sheer scale of damage that would cause?
You can create a nonspherical gravitational field by having matter underneath the bedrock. More of it is on the edges to counter the inwards pull of gravity. You'd also have to account for the corners. Given that we don't see matter under bedrock, it's possible that it's in the form of black holes being contained.
well the number i got for p = (32m/s/s) / (2pi*384 meters*G) is a mean column density of about 200,000 g/cc, ten million times the mean density of a supermassive black hole. so it could also be that the minecraft world is much thicker than we can see since we can't dig through bedrock and there's just way more stuff under there.
austin, i’ve missed you so much! i stopped really watching game theory and i realize now it’s because i had mostly lost interest and was only watching THE SCIENCE at that point. i’m so happy you’re still making videos and that you’re feeling better now :)
I have one small correction for something that always gets under my skin: centrifugal force does not exist. The gravity in this scenario is caused by inertia. The only acceleration is inward, being the centripetal acceleration due to the rope things. Inertia makes it feel like Steve is being pulled downward, just like when you get pushed forward when braking in a car. That's all, otherwise great video :)
Cept it shows in the beginning there is no way the earth is flat. The high noon thing at opposite sides of the earth alone disproves any possibility of the earth being flat.
I am really happy to see that I have been featured in a video. I honestly wasn't sure you would ever cover this topic until you made that discord channel and I am glad to see that you even found other ways to prove the flatness of the world separate to the ones I came up with.
Ahhhhhh Austin I have missed hearing your voice talking about video game science. Stay healthy and keep up the awesome work, and I look forward to your next video man!
Uuuh, nice to have my all time favourite Game-World Scientist back yelling again 🎉 ... really hope you're doing fine and had as much fun making the video as I just had watching it.
Just saw your vid about "why I left GT" and honestly. YOU were the reason I kept going back to Game Theory's videos. Let it be known now, I am HERE for the content.
Austin I will just say this. I’m happy to see you do videos again. Especially after your video explaining your dark place. I wish you nothing but the absolute best because you deserve it.
I love it when you get pumped up and scream when the video hits its climax. It gives your videos a higher energy level and gives it heart instead of sounding monotone
if we're already talking about Minecraft mistakes: the nether and by extension the end are different dimensions, NOT different parts of the Minecraft world this was confirmed cannonically by mojang
HEY AUSTIN!!! I'm a fan, and knowing about your struggles only makes me more fond of your work. Thank you for being real, and thank you for continuing your pursuit. I don't even play Minecraft. Sincerely, James.
NOOOO AUSTIN I BELIEVED IN YOU! THE ONE GOD I BELIEVED IN… I trusted you. It can’t be flat… it would need 2 Neptunes worth of fuel to create gravity for a flat world, you taught me that. Was it all a lie?
The human like beings a a different size than we assume, and the development of its surface being observed by outside forces beyond perception. It would allow it to have round planet physics while also having the sun appear in the same location from the whole map.
The issue is the sun wouldn't look the same at sunrise and sunset. The nearest edge to the sun it would look different to the furthest edge. I always thought the walls at the edge of the world were just separating different parts of the world so they wouldn't need to match. I.e there is another walled of section of the world next to ours but we can't access it. But that also presents its own issues.
spinning the plane will result in the outermost areas pulling you away from the center of the plane resulting in you feeling like you are on an odd half sphere but the edge feeling like its a hill leading up to the center
Watching the video and beginning a little after 8:00 I hear “Neptune, the Mystic.” What a beautiful peace of music, along with the other pieces in The Planets. It’s one of my favorite pieces of music overall. It captures so much about how we characterize each planet, and Uranus and Neptune having names of sort of mystical beings is cool, as we didn’t know the specifics about them except how they orbited our Sun and had moons (only 1 in Neptune’s case).
32m/s² is terminal velocity in earth's atmosphere. Anyway, gravity in most video games (minecraft included) isn't a result of mass. It's just downward force applied to objects. Usually there is a modifier that is univerally applied to all objects, but can be modified independently by individual object, object types, areas of the map, etc... this happens even in games set in space, where gravity is effectively zero, and the physics engine really only has to account for velocity and momentum.
Welcome back Austin, it's good to see you again. I just caught up with the channel but I'm getting updates again and it's like hearing from an old friend as parasocial as that is
Centrifugal Force is not a thing. It IS NOT A FORCE. It’s an application of inertia, not in of itself a force, but the result of the CENTRIPETAL FORCE yanking it toward the center of a rotating axis while Inertia wants to fling it into a straight line in the direction of motion. This results in Centrifugal Inertia, the thing many still call a force, but it is NOT.
2:30 aaaaaand you just described a torus, not ball. unless of course your world border is the "opposite pole" to spawn, but then walking in a straight line *next to* spawn would have to keep turning you around it, which doesn't happen.
2:37 I just want to note, but two of the faces would loop back onto a different point on themselves. Like how going to the north pole doesn't teleport you to the south pole.
I think it's elegant. It even solves the issue of "falling" out of the world when you break the bedrock. Normally, you'd think gravity would pull you back, but if it's spinning, the source of the gravity makes so much sense.
Yes! A long gripe of i’ve had with your (very entertaining and educational) serious is that you ALWAYS use the physics of our universe, even when the game obviously has different physics.
Wow…seeing Austin illustrate and explain all that goes into flat Minecraft…no…Minecraft is not flat…it is either a very large sphere, or a cube…and I will hear no arguments to the contrary
Here's a weird science thing I thought of, Austin: With chest boats being added to Minecraft, what is the bouyancy of each kind of wood, including bamboo, and thus what would the impact of this be? Considering there is no displacement, this infers water has a shifting mass.
~3:00 I guess because Mojang didn't code so generation match at borders that's why they also didn't make it so Minecraft world loops. I wonder if there are mods that make it appen.
I'm so glad you are back! I love getting shot mathematics formulas that I can't understand and won't ever remember but MUST watch as it make me feel smart for a minute xD
There's one glaring issue. If the world was rotating, flying up in the air then dropping to the bottom would have you land somewhere else as the world rotated out from under you. What we see is that no matter the height you fall from, you always fall directly down in sync with the world landing in exactly the same spot meaning it can't be rotating and your first model of rockets strapped to the underside is the more likely one. The sun and the moon would be orbiting the earth with your unbreakium tethers and every minecraft world is doomed to die from proton decay as time and space unravel around it
Good vid man im actually very glad that we get just austin content now, ik leaving gt was probably dummy stressful but your content is going to do nothing but shine bro
So if we just ignore the centrifugal force idea, how dense would bedrock have to be to account for the x3 gravity? Like bedrock is nearly indestructible and holds the entire flat world together, so you would assume it would be insanely dense.
specifically because centrifugal force is not real, but is actually the result of inertia. I would rather consider the absurd density of bedrock. In all reality, the thin bedrock layer needs to account for a mass several orders of magnitude greater than the rest of the world.
It is also due to relativity that you will never reach the speed of light no matter how long you accelerate at 32m/s². But of course explosions are not pleasant.
let’s fucking go, new austin vid just dropped! on the real, i’m so happy to see you popping up on my feed again austin. your videos have always been a bright spot in my life, and your energy and passion for the SCIENCE! made me want to strive to be the best. your work is truly a service. i’m so happy to hear that you’re prioritizing your mental and physical health, and that YT is making you happy again in any form. and even if this is the last shoddycast ever, we’re all so thankful that we got to join you on this journey. here’s to the future ✊🏽
there's a solid chance that the world border is just that, a border, the map keeps generating to give the illusion that there's more there, which insinuates that we COULD be on a globe, just on a teeny tiny part of it
Cool, can you make it wipe out all life within 25,000 light years also? Another thing, great to see you back on the platform. I was subscribed the the game theory basically only for THE SCIENCE. Honestly didn't know you had your own separate channel until a few months ago.
13:29: Oh, so maybe _that's_ why the Localised Weather and Tornadoes mod seems to have such an improbable number of tornados! (Or, at least it's a great canon excuse for it).

What? Terminal velocity would be m/s not m/s², depends on the specific object's air resistance, and is way higher than that for a human

glad to see you back buddy! looking forward to all the content. keep up the good work!
Hope you're doing well Austin 😊
Nothing better to start the day... this is exactly the kind of stuff I've been hoping for, so glad you're back.
It's so great to see a good ol The Science video again!! Fabulous work, Austin, and I hope to see more! Hope you're doing well!
Good to have you back. Glad you are getting better. Solid video, can't wait to see what else you have cooking up.
Welcome back Austin, it's good to see you again. I just caught up with the channel but I'm getting updates again and it's like hearing from an old friend as parasocial as that is
Centrifugal Force is not a thing. It IS NOT A FORCE. It’s an application of inertia, not in of itself a force, but the result of the CENTRIPETAL FORCE yanking it toward the center of a rotating axis while Inertia wants to fling it into a straight line in the direction of motion. This results in Centrifugal Inertia, the thing many still call a force, but it is NOT.
14:05 Yes. Yes, I am satsfied.
Legitimately, though. I found it quite interesting.
Good to see ya Austin, looking forward to more shoddycast videos! But don't ignore your health and wellbeing, ok?
2:30 aaaaaand you just described a torus, not ball. unless of course your world border is the "opposite pole" to spawn, but then walking in a straight line *next to* spawn would have to keep turning you around it, which doesn't happen.
2:37 I just want to note, but two of the faces would loop back onto a different point on themselves. Like how going to the north pole doesn't teleport you to the south pole.
I think it's elegant. It even solves the issue of "falling" out of the world when you break the bedrock. Normally, you'd think gravity would pull you back, but if it's spinning, the source of the gravity makes so much sense.
Yes! A long gripe of i’ve had with your (very entertaining and educational) serious is that you ALWAYS use the physics of our universe, even when the game obviously has different physics.
Wow…seeing Austin illustrate and explain all that goes into flat Minecraft…no…Minecraft is not flat…it is either a very large sphere, or a cube…and I will hear no arguments to the contrary
1:04 Hey! Thanks for the shoutout! It really helps me!
Here's a weird science thing I thought of, Austin:
With chest boats being added to Minecraft, what is the bouyancy of each kind of wood, including bamboo, and thus what would the impact of this be? Considering there is no displacement, this infers water has a shifting mass.
~3:00 I guess because Mojang didn't code so generation match at borders that's why they also didn't make it so Minecraft world loops.
I wonder if there are mods that make it appen.
I'm so glad you are back!
I love getting shot mathematics formulas that I can't understand and won't ever remember but MUST watch as it make me feel smart for a minute xD
There's one glaring issue. If the world was rotating, flying up in the air then dropping to the bottom would have you land somewhere else as the world rotated out from under you. What we see is that no matter the height you fall from, you always fall directly down in sync with the world landing in exactly the same spot meaning it can't be rotating and your first model of rockets strapped to the underside is the more likely one. The sun and the moon would be orbiting the earth with your unbreakium tethers and every minecraft world is doomed to die from proton decay as time and space unravel around it
Good vid man im actually very glad that we get just austin content now, ik leaving gt was probably dummy stressful but your content is going to do nothing but shine bro
YES, BACK TO TRUE FORM. keep with the good work my friend!
hey Austin, it sounds like you're doing much better, I'm really glad to sew you back. It honestly made my day!
So if we just ignore the centrifugal force idea, how dense would bedrock have to be to account for the x3 gravity?
Like bedrock is nearly indestructible and holds the entire flat world together, so you would assume it would be insanely dense.
specifically because centrifugal force is not real, but is actually the result of inertia. I would rather consider the absurd density of bedrock. In all reality, the thin bedrock layer needs to account for a mass several orders of magnitude greater than the rest of the world.
It is also due to relativity that you will never reach the speed of light no matter how long you accelerate at 32m/s². But of course explosions are not pleasant.
let’s fucking go, new austin vid just dropped!
on the real, i’m so happy to see you popping up on my feed again austin. your videos have always been a bright spot in my life, and your energy and passion for the SCIENCE! made me want to strive to be the best. your work is truly a service. i’m so happy to hear that you’re prioritizing your mental and physical health, and that YT is making you happy again in any form. and even if this is the last shoddycast ever, we’re all so thankful that we got to join you on this journey. here’s to the future ✊🏽
I’ve missed your videos so much!!!!
Glad to see you’re having fun and I hope everything is doing well!
MAN this video scratches an itch I didnt know I had. Good stuff Austin!
there's a solid chance that the world border is just that, a border, the map keeps generating to give the illusion that there's more there, which insinuates that we COULD be on a globe, just on a teeny tiny part of it
I love it when you get all absolutely worked up at the end of a video. Good ol' THE SCIENCE times :')
I love this episode!! only complaint is the font you used even though it fit the theme was really hard to read!! Glad to see you putting new stuff up!
dude, I love it when you shout, it's funny, it's what drew me to your videos
Cool, can you make it wipe out all life within 25,000 light years also? Another thing, great to see you back on the platform. I was subscribed the the game theory basically only for THE SCIENCE. Honestly didn't know you had your own separate channel until a few months ago.
13:29: Oh, so maybe _that's_ why the Localised Weather and Tornadoes mod seems to have such an improbable number of tornados! (Or, at least it's a great canon excuse for it).
Dude it is SO GREAT to have you back. Keep up the hard work you're great. We needed this more than you could have ever know. ShodHeads for life
Great job! I love seeing the science videos you make!
I LOVE IT WHEN YOU SCREAM, AUSTIN! I LOVE YOUR PASSION!
Glad to see you doing stuff again, came over from GT to keep getting your vids
