@Scott Scotty good question. The argument you would want to look at is the watchmaker analogy/argument. It states that which has a specific design implies an intelligent designer.
@Scott Scotty ahhh! A fellow philosopher. We know a couple things to be true however. Nothing cannot create something. The teleological argument only suggests there is a creator behind the creation. It does not define the creator as perfect in any sense. However, one can believe in an all powerful, all knowing, and all loving deity without it being perfect. No one was at the creation of the universe, so we will only know at the end of our earthly lives if we lived for a purpose or not. Best of luck to you friend!
The thing I really like about this, is the fact that we achieved this globally all together, instead of in some kind of a competition against each other. I believe many problems would be solvable if we just did it all together.
@jonny j Wow, you must be an expert in macro economics! Not in all cases competition is better, and the first photo of a black hole is a great example of that. Competition also brought us more climate change, damage to the environment and other things. But yeah, "competition is the best"...
@@lukasmihara You can still work together and ruin the world's environment. The oil industry, for example. Look at Tesla, they are working against the media, the entire automotive industry, and the oil industry to modernize the world with new innovations in space technology, advance the human race to clean transportation, and pioneer man and woman from Earth to Mars. This is competition at its best. If Elon Musk is successful in the Mars mission, he will truly be remembered as one of the most important people in the history of the world and the human race. We need more companies that are willing to push the envelop and make the world a better place.

You'd have to actually go more than 57 million years back in time to see dinosaurs (in fact, more than 65 million), when an asteroid is considered to have made impact with Earth's surface, ending almost all forms of life.
The first blurry image of Pluto was 23 years ago. Within a half, or maybe even a quarter of a decade from now, we'll see the detailed image of that blurry Black Hole.
This is so huge. It's a shame news like this isn't front and center, we have coverage on which celebrity got spotted having a bad hair day or who is boning who. This should be household knowledge.
to be more precise: einstein theory was used to predict black holes and support big bang, but initially Einstein rejected both ideas. he got "overruled" by his peers later in life. Do some research and you´ll find it. there is a recent lecture by Arkani Hamed,very respected lecturer at the top venues of spacetime ideology... lets see if i can find it...ua-cam.com/video/qTx98PUW6lE/v-deo.html he mentions it in this lecture i believe, (great teacher, he makes all that difficult stuff understandable) he also hints that something is very wrong in current cosmology. he also explains how they now can make a black hole in the lab.
What's even Crazier is that some people believe it...it only exists in the mind and always will. Check out "The "Thunderbolts Project on UA-cam, I think you'll change your mind about this Story.
While Einstein was pretty smart, he didn't personally predict EVERYTHING that his theory predicts. He did predict things like bending of light, gravitational time dilation, and correctly explained an anomaly in the orbit of Mercury. Depending on how specific you want to be with the term "black hole" it may have even been predicted BEFORE Einstein.

I really appreciate this guy dumbing it down for us to comprehend what we are looking at.

Bravo, makes me wish I was more into science in my working life.
They announced the image of the black hole on my birthday, April 10th, which is a great deal to me because I have always been fascinated by black holes and worm holes ever since I could read. I would spend hours looking through wikipedia pages about black holes, Einstein, Hawking, etc. I watched Interstellar over and over. All the images and the scenes were just simulations. I thought the day I can see a real black hole would never come. And it came, on my birthday. How can it be more awesome!
Aliens looking us: Let's study this species of ape evolving conscious beings and see how fast they are growing by measuring their progress on their latest major technological advance compared to their time of existence since the beginning of their most earliest ancestor. Us spotting first black hole: *makes memes* 👽: 🤨
Somewhere I have read How Nolan picted that Black hole in Interstellar it was a kind of perfect what most of the theoretical physicists think until now. Even scientists from Nasa have stated that black was so good to see.
The idea to synchronize so many telescopes, and then have them emulate an earth sized lens is beyond genious. Kudos to all the scientist that are a part of this. I find this more impressive than actually observing a black hole
And this is why we need to come together as one forget our differences and complete challenges as one Human race and not think culture, religion and other differences, we can achieve more as a whole that benefits all of us and just not for science
Science has this incredibly successful track record because it begins by ignoring the biases (and prejudices) of everyone, it just deals with what can be observed and proved (or disproved) by evidence. A lot of non-critical thinking (that leads to the "races," religions and "differences" that you allude to) are immediately dispensed with so actual progress can be made (science is a mere subset of critical thinking). But as soon as each individual devotes themselves to critical thinking, they also can overcome (or at least ignore) their own biases and prejudices to more quickly achieve those benefits that you mention.
@Joe Chang You didn't address your query to anyone by name, so forgive me if I wasn't the intended recipient, but I'll try to answer your very valid questions and assertions regardless. "How (do) you get from Einstein's equation to (a) black hole?...All description and assumption, no explanation and mechanism, no cause and effect, this is not science but religion." Nope, it's not religion, which is based on faith (belief without evidence). Some people think that a scientific theory is a scientist's "best guess" or "educated guess" or "speculation." This is because the word "theory" has been absorbed into colloquial language and is commonly used as the layman's "best guess" or "speculation." Some people were taught by inferior or confused science teachers that there is some supposed hierarchy in science, such that a fact/observation somehow graduates to a hypothesis, the hypothesis graduates to a theory, then the theory graduates to a law. THIS IS INCORRECT and no reputable scientist has ever even suggested this. A scientific theory is the HIGHEST echelon that information can ever attain. A scientific theory CONTAINS and INCLUDES all known facts, successful/non-falsified hypotheses and known/proven laws. The theory may still be incomplete, with still-missing pieces, but that doesn't mean that even in its incomplete form it still can't be provisionally accepted as valid and incredibly useful, just as Einstein's theories and the Theory of Natural Selection have been for decades, incomplete, but still incredibly useful. All that Einstein (or any other astrophysicist/cosmologist that have no direct access to the humongous celestial phenomena that they are observing) can do is work with the data that they currently have and use it and mathematics and reproducible physical/earthly demonstrations to form hyphotheses and then invite the scientific community to subject the hyphotheses to withering cross-examination. In other words, the theorist WANTS his rivals to show him/her where he/she might be wrong! If a rival colleague presents future evidence that invalidates any part of the hypothesis, the hypothesis either has to be modified to agree with the new data, or in some instances, the hypothesis is outright discarded. Why would a scientist want to be proven wrong? So that they don't remain misguided/deluded as to what the facts/reality are, they won't have to waste anymore time going down an unsuccessful rabbit hole. They can get on to more successful and useful hypotheses that might benefit mankind. After enough separate hypotheses have withstood these rival cross-examinations, they can be combined with all known facts, observations, laws and mathematics to form a theory, i.e. a model to describe some aspect of nature/the universe that is so accurate, so successful, so helpful, so useful for humanity and perhaps most importantly, so PREDICTIVE of what future phenomena (that have yet to be discovered) SHOULD look like if the tenets of the theory continue to hold. An excellent example of this was the recent picture of the black hole found at the center of a galaxy. Even before the picture was revealed, thousands of scientists had used the best/latest theoretical models of what the picture SHOULD look like IF the theory that the scientists were currently accepting was correct...and what did we see?...Pretty much EXACTLY what was predicted by theory would be seen! Now, even though this was impressive support for the theory, it DOES NOT MEAN that the current theory will never be changed or disproven or discarded. It merely means that for the time being, the current theory is incredibly accurate, incredibly useful, incredibly predictive and that it has withstood all assaults from rival theorists. The theory lives another day, only to be assaulted on a daily basis by new observations and rival theories. "Without understanding the precise mechanism of a theory, how can you accept it as true?" The wording here is important. Those who accept the findings of science don't necessarily say that ANY fact or hypothesis or theory is "TRUE," rather they accept the fact or hypothesis or theory as "the best that we can do with our current experiments, measurements, knowledge and abilities." They realize that there will always be new discoveries that supplement the current body of scientific knowledge, but they don't have to wait until the science is "complete." 1) Because science will never be complete, it's always being added to 2) Even with incomplete science, much good can still come from it. Case in point, just because Natural Selection is an incomplete theory of evolution doesn't mean it has been useless. There are many gaps in the theory that are unexplained and various new phenomena such as epigenetics, horizontal gene transfer and symbiogenesis may help fill those gaps or shift evolutionary theory away from Natural Selection (NS). But in the meantime, NS has resulted in an explosion of successful medical and agricultural successes unlike anything that preceded it. And those adherents of NS should be THRILLED if NS is every torn down! Why? Because any theory that supplants NS will be EVEN MORE SUCCESSFUL, MORE USEFUL, MORE PREDICTIVE than NS, and THAT is saying a LOT!. My original post spoke of critical thinking and how many people don't use it nearly often enough. And it has nothing to do with intelligence. Using Einstein as an example: his brilliant theories have repeatedly stood the test of time and been incredibly helpful in science. But even Einstein was as susceptible as you or I to bouts of non-critical thinking: He inserted the "Cosmological Constant" into his field equations basically so that, no matter what future astronomical observations were made, the constant would ensure that the universe appeared to be steady-state or static, i.e. that it doesn't expand or contract. In other words, Einstein inserted the constant because HE DIDN'T WANT the universe to expand or contract. It had NOTHING to do with fact or reality, it was just his human BIAS, his wishful thinking. And later, he was adult enough to describe it as his "biggest blunder." He knew that he could have set science back by decades by invoking his own desires into his theories rather than simply accepting the actual science. "Are you a rational thinker?" I struggle on a daily basis to try to be. But I recognize that I also have biases (just like every other human that has ever lived) and I have to discount them over and over on a daily basis to get actual rational thinking done. But my work will never be done, my brain is hard-wired with these biases to fool me in so many ways, just as every other humans is, so I (and everyone else) should be forever vigilant. A final question to you: If you aren't impressed by the success rate of the scientific method, could you suggest another mode of inquiry that shows any success at all? Peace.
@xhemexx After his first post, I was willing to give Joe Chang the benefit of the doubt and attempt to address his concerns honestly (I figured that the peanut gallery might be interested as well). But after reading his last few postings, I'm convinced of any one of the following (in decreasing order of likelihood): 1) Joe's a troll 2) he runs his responses through the Deepak Chopra random word generator to end up with "deepities," 3) English isn't his first language; and the very least likely: 4) He has actually proven the thousands of astrophysicsts/cosmologists wrong with his brilliance and needs to book his flight to Stockholm...but I'm not giving him any more of my time...
Its funny as i was worried that my comment sound communist, thanks for confirming but to be honest im happy for the rich to stay rich and the poor to be a little richer if that helps :)
Is it just me... or was anyone else feeling weird anxiety every time the scientist was talking, that the interviewer was going interrupt every time he paused?
I hated it! He was just going through his talking points instead of trying to have a real discussion with him. Kills the beauty of dialog among minds. But I guess he had to focus the conversation too and compress it within an allotted time. But it did feel like he wasn't actively listening and appreciating this beautiful scientist's mind.
@Ninja Wizard you do realize that black holes and dark matter/energy violates basic fundamental laws of physics? You cheer up a conspiracy theory in science and because it's been glorified for about a century now, you do not question it's validity, also you do not accept any form of criticism about it? Furthermore, do you know that the concept that those several observatories acting as telescope the size of earth is actually exaggerated and they do have missing information they invoked with statistical predictions to fill in this missing data to produce any form of accuracy from the very little photons they might be getting from this particular point in space? Until this could be confirmed I do not wanna be part of or be proud of speculation that might end up to be utterly false.
@Ninja Wizard In this model they use, the event horizon of the black hole has velocity greater than the speed of light and at the same time 0 velocity as it emits radiation, which is in full contradiction of any scientific observations possible, and if you have gone deeper in this you should know that, but you obviously do not. Also, by definition and known observation matter cannot be compressed beyond certain levels simply because of the structure it forms and the density, which I see you somehow dismiss in favor of mysticism and concepts beyond your reach that cannot be strictly defined which is the sole goal of science - to have exact definitions of processes and motions. So you dare talking and compare my argument as such made by the church, please gimme a break.
Hawking not seeing this is the most depressing part. Einstein was dead long ago. The depressing part is if Hawking had lived JUST one year more he would have seen this real picture of this cosmic monster which he had been studying for his whole life.
@@qxpn9220 Yeah I hope Hawking KNEW that the picture was already taken and was under processing. Hawking was still alive when the photo was captured but he passed away during its analyzing and processing. So he didn't get to see the processed photo.

I can’t even get my head around the idea of being able to capture an image of an object with millions of other objects blocking the view. Like trying to photograph a single tree in the center of the forest, while standing outside of the forest 🤔
It’s a black hole not a tree.yes a tree in a forest is hard to see but that doesn’t mean we can’t see a black hole because there is no black hole forest.its the only black hole we can see. U should put an ant in front of u while taking picture then be like “ bro an ant blocks my whole view”
Rang Klos Science makes progress in spite of scientists who are normal human beings prone to bias, prejudice, and confirmation bias. Ad hominem attacks are still common in peer reviews and press releases. One example is how the scientists who claim to be seeing this distant black hole mock scientist who interpret the data in an Electric Universe plasma dynamic model.

Yeah but the part that gets sucked in probably wouldn't be able to get pulled back out because it would require a COLOSSAL amount of force to pull it out since the amount a black hole can suck in is literally so strong that light can't even escape. Also the camera along with part of the rope will get spaghetti-fied so it most likely won't work anymore. Cool idea though, if only it was possible.
@@vi0let831 there wouldn’t be anything to pull out. A black holes gravity is so strong that it pulls you apart at the atomic level, basically turning you into spaghetti... hangs the reason nothing can come back after the event horizon. To bad. I’d love to know what’s inside those mysteries.

The fact that they needed to cooperate with other countries to take this picture is a principle one should use in the design of a Mars expedition. The fact that a country should take the burden of sending astronomers to Mars is something that belongs in the 1960s. With collaboration, the project becomes more realistic.
Shep is so articulate, great video, a great book that details the Event Horizon Telescope and Shep's efforts is "Einstein's Shadow" by Seth Fletcher really worth reading!
Knowledge and discovery aside, this is how you give credit to all the 200 members in the team. It wasn't a one man job. I'm comparing it to the other video where they gave credit to just one woman, title read "The Woman behind the black hole discovery". Yes she did the algorithm but without data, there's no use to it. Everything is interdependent and every cog in the machine is important. Hats off to all these scientists and hats off to taking another step for mankind.
Yeah, it would make sense to think that the matter goes some where after it's swallowed up.. Spit out into a different universe possibly. Who knows, maybe on the other end there's a big bang happening? 🤔
It was Einstein's general theory of relativity that predicted black holes. Einstein (like many physicists until the 1960s) did not believe that such a phenomenon could exist. P.S. I know it's a historical picture, but when I see it, I can't help but think of a donut.
Remember, that black hole is 57million light years away. Therefore the image we captured was the state of black hole a very loooooong time ago. Damn!!

@Scott Scotty ahhh! A fellow philosopher. We know a couple things to be true however. Nothing cannot create something. The teleological argument only suggests there is a creator behind the creation. It does not define the creator as perfect in any sense. However, one can believe in an all powerful, all knowing, and all loving deity without it being perfect. No one was at the creation of the universe, so we will only know at the end of our earthly lives if we lived for a purpose or not. Best of luck to you friend!
@Scott Scotty ohh yeah of course lol I have my beliefs but I’ll never push them into someone lol
@@nal909 no. You may not. Keep your fairytale to yourself.
The thing I really like about this, is the fact that we achieved this globally all together, instead of in some kind of a competition against each other. I believe many problems would be solvable if we just did it all together.
These open calls to fascism are getting ridiculous.
I was thinking you could be leader of the NWO
@jonny j Wow, you must be an expert in macro economics! Not in all cases competition is better, and the first photo of a black hole is a great example of that. Competition also brought us more climate change, damage to the environment and other things. But yeah, "competition is the best"...
@@lukasmihara You can still work together and ruin the world's environment. The oil industry, for example.
Look at Tesla, they are working against the media, the entire automotive industry, and the oil industry to modernize the world with new innovations in space technology, advance the human race to clean transportation, and pioneer man and woman from Earth to Mars. This is competition at its best. If Elon Musk is successful in the Mars mission, he will truly be remembered as one of the most important people in the history of the world and the human race. We need more companies that are willing to push the envelop and make the world a better place.
you are right. so, as we clearly don't care about black holes, what about petting that good'ol mother earth? huh? we are intellignt enouh to seek for useless things but, real problems just flow over us like water on an umbrella?? you scientists are fools. get real and prioritize the right things. enough is enough now.

isnt it not even a photo? it was from radio waves right, you wouldn’t actually see that
@@MnemonicHeadTrip Same as x-ray photos, we don't see it as humans, that's why we build machines that do. We see less than 1% of all the light around us.
It is a photo, the way it was rendered is just different than a "regular" photo. It's compiled from hundreds of terabytes of data
You'd have to actually go more than 57 million years back in time to see dinosaurs (in fact, more than 65 million), when an asteroid is considered to have made impact with Earth's surface, ending almost all forms of life.
57 million light years. Light year is the distance light can travel in a year.
The first blurry image of Pluto was 23 years ago. Within a half, or maybe even a quarter of a decade from now, we'll see the detailed image of that blurry Black Hole.

Facts 💀
It's just crazy how Einstein predicted that image hundred years ago when the time there are no computers
he did not predict a black hole, in fact he was against it. But hey believe and parrot whatever you like
@@gammaraygem any proof tho?
to be more precise: einstein theory was used to predict black holes and support big bang, but initially Einstein rejected both ideas.
he got "overruled" by his peers later in life. Do some research and you´ll find it.
there is a recent lecture by Arkani Hamed,very respected lecturer at the top venues of spacetime ideology... lets see if i can find it...ua-cam.com/video/qTx98PUW6lE/v-deo.html
he mentions it in this lecture i believe, (great teacher, he makes all that difficult stuff understandable) he also hints that something is very wrong in current cosmology.
he also explains how they now can make a black hole in the lab.
What's even Crazier is that some people believe it...it only exists in the mind and always will. Check out "The "Thunderbolts Project on UA-cam, I think you'll change your mind about this Story.
While Einstein was pretty smart, he didn't personally predict EVERYTHING that his theory predicts. He did predict things like bending of light, gravitational time dilation, and correctly explained an anomaly in the orbit of Mercury. Depending on how specific you want to be with the term "black hole" it may have even been predicted BEFORE Einstein.

They announced the image of the black hole on my birthday, April 10th, which is a great deal to me because I have always been fascinated by black holes and worm holes ever since I could read. I would spend hours looking through wikipedia pages about black holes, Einstein, Hawking, etc. I watched Interstellar over and over. All the images and the scenes were just simulations.

That’s just awesome! Especially the cooperative nature of the discovery!

And this is why we need to come together as one forget our differences and complete challenges as one Human race and not think culture, religion and other differences, we can achieve more as a whole that benefits all of us and just not for science
Science has this incredibly successful track record because it begins by ignoring the biases (and prejudices) of everyone, it just deals with what can be observed and proved (or disproved) by evidence. A lot of non-critical thinking (that leads to the "races," religions and "differences" that you allude to) are immediately dispensed with so actual progress can be made (science is a mere subset of critical thinking). But as soon as each individual devotes themselves to critical thinking, they also can overcome (or at least ignore) their own biases and prejudices to more quickly achieve those benefits that you mention.
@Joe Chang
You didn't address your query to anyone by name, so forgive me if I wasn't the intended recipient, but I'll try to answer your very valid questions and assertions regardless.
"How (do) you get from Einstein's equation to (a) black hole?...All description and assumption, no explanation and mechanism, no cause and effect, this is not science but religion."
Nope, it's not religion, which is based on faith (belief without evidence). Some people think that a scientific theory is a scientist's "best guess" or "educated guess" or "speculation." This is because the word "theory" has been absorbed into colloquial language and is commonly used as the layman's "best guess" or "speculation." Some people were taught by inferior or confused science teachers that there is some supposed hierarchy in science, such that a fact/observation somehow graduates to a hypothesis, the hypothesis graduates to a theory, then the theory graduates to a law. THIS IS INCORRECT and no reputable scientist has ever even suggested this. A scientific theory is the HIGHEST echelon that information can ever attain. A scientific theory CONTAINS and INCLUDES all known facts, successful/non-falsified hypotheses and known/proven laws. The theory may still be incomplete, with still-missing pieces, but that doesn't mean that even in its incomplete form it still can't be provisionally accepted as valid and incredibly useful, just as Einstein's theories and the Theory of Natural Selection have been for decades, incomplete, but still incredibly useful.
All that Einstein (or any other astrophysicist/cosmologist that have no direct access to the humongous celestial phenomena that they are observing) can do is work with the data that they currently have and use it and mathematics and reproducible physical/earthly demonstrations to form hyphotheses and then invite the scientific community to subject the hyphotheses to withering cross-examination. In other words, the theorist WANTS his rivals to show him/her where he/she might be wrong! If a rival colleague presents future evidence that invalidates any part of the hypothesis, the hypothesis either has to be modified to agree with the new data, or in some instances, the hypothesis is outright discarded.
Why would a scientist want to be proven wrong? So that they don't remain misguided/deluded as to what the facts/reality are, they won't have to waste anymore time going down an unsuccessful rabbit hole. They can get on to more successful and useful hypotheses that might benefit mankind.
After enough separate hypotheses have withstood these rival cross-examinations, they can be combined with all known facts, observations, laws and mathematics to form a theory, i.e. a model to describe some aspect of nature/the universe that is so accurate, so successful, so helpful, so useful for humanity and perhaps most importantly, so PREDICTIVE of what future phenomena (that have yet to be discovered) SHOULD look like if the tenets of the theory continue to hold.
An excellent example of this was the recent picture of the black hole found at the center of a galaxy. Even before the picture was revealed, thousands of scientists had used the best/latest theoretical models of what the picture SHOULD look like IF the theory that the scientists were currently accepting was correct...and what did we see?...Pretty much EXACTLY what was predicted by theory would be seen! Now, even though this was impressive support for the theory, it DOES NOT MEAN that the current theory will never be changed or disproven or discarded. It merely means that for the time being, the current theory is incredibly accurate, incredibly useful, incredibly predictive and that it has withstood all assaults from rival theorists. The theory lives another day, only to be assaulted on a daily basis by new observations and rival theories.
"Without understanding the precise mechanism of a theory, how can you accept it as true?"
The wording here is important. Those who accept the findings of science don't necessarily say that ANY fact or hypothesis or theory is "TRUE," rather they accept the fact or hypothesis or theory as "the best that we can do with our current experiments, measurements, knowledge and abilities." They realize that there will always be new discoveries that supplement the current body of scientific knowledge, but they don't have to wait until the science is "complete." 1) Because science will never be complete, it's always being added to 2) Even with incomplete science, much good can still come from it. Case in point, just because Natural Selection is an incomplete theory of evolution doesn't mean it has been useless. There are many gaps in the theory that are unexplained and various new phenomena such as epigenetics, horizontal gene transfer and symbiogenesis may help fill those gaps or shift evolutionary theory away from Natural Selection (NS). But in the meantime, NS has resulted in an explosion of successful medical and agricultural successes unlike anything that preceded it. And those adherents of NS should be THRILLED if NS is every torn down! Why? Because any theory that supplants NS will be EVEN MORE SUCCESSFUL, MORE USEFUL, MORE PREDICTIVE than NS, and THAT is saying a LOT!.
My original post spoke of critical thinking and how many people don't use it nearly often enough. And it has nothing to do with intelligence. Using Einstein as an example: his brilliant theories have repeatedly stood the test of time and been incredibly helpful in science. But even Einstein was as susceptible as you or I to bouts of non-critical thinking: He inserted the "Cosmological Constant" into his field equations basically so that, no matter what future astronomical observations were made, the constant would ensure that the universe appeared to be steady-state or static, i.e. that it doesn't expand or contract. In other words, Einstein inserted the constant because HE DIDN'T WANT the universe to expand or contract. It had NOTHING to do with fact or reality, it was just his human BIAS, his wishful thinking. And later, he was adult enough to describe it as his "biggest blunder." He knew that he could have set science back by decades by invoking his own desires into his theories rather than simply accepting the actual science.
"Are you a rational thinker?"
I struggle on a daily basis to try to be. But I recognize that I also have biases (just like every other human that has ever lived) and I have to discount them over and over on a daily basis to get actual rational thinking done. But my work will never be done, my brain is hard-wired with these biases to fool me in so many ways, just as every other humans is, so I (and everyone else) should be forever vigilant.
A final question to you: If you aren't impressed by the success rate of the scientific method, could you suggest another mode of inquiry that shows any success at all? Peace.
@xhemexx After his first post, I was willing to give Joe Chang the benefit of the doubt and attempt to address his concerns honestly (I figured that the peanut gallery might be interested as well). But after reading his last few postings, I'm convinced of any one of the following (in decreasing order of likelihood): 1) Joe's a troll 2) he runs his responses through the Deepak Chopra random word generator to end up with "deepities," 3) English isn't his first language; and the very least likely: 4) He has actually proven the thousands of astrophysicsts/cosmologists wrong with his brilliance and needs to book his flight to Stockholm...but I'm not giving him any more of my time...

Is it just me... or was anyone else feeling weird anxiety every time the scientist was talking, that the interviewer was going interrupt every time he paused?
Absolutely. Terrible interviewer. Maybe he didn't like feeling less smart than Shep so he had to get an edge somehow? Very odd
I hated it! He was just going through his talking points instead of trying to have a real discussion with him. Kills the beauty of dialog among minds. But I guess he had to focus the conversation too and compress it within an allotted time. But it did feel like he wasn't actively listening and appreciating this beautiful scientist's mind.
Yeah you can tell he doesn't understand what it actually is.
Yeah, it was annoying, but at least he waited for very slight pauses. Doeleman is a class act, and brilliant presenter to play off it so well.

@Ninja Wizard you do realize that black holes and dark matter/energy violates basic fundamental laws of physics? You cheer up a conspiracy theory in science and because it's been glorified for about a century now, you do not question it's validity, also you do not accept any form of criticism about it? Furthermore, do you know that the concept that those several observatories acting as telescope the size of earth is actually exaggerated and they do have missing information they invoked with statistical predictions to fill in this missing data to produce any form of accuracy from the very little photons they might be getting from this particular point in space? Until this could be confirmed I do not wanna be part of or be proud of speculation that might end up to be utterly false.
@Ninja Wizard In this model they use, the event horizon of the black hole has velocity greater than the speed of light and at the same time 0 velocity as it emits radiation, which is in full contradiction of any scientific observations possible, and if you have gone deeper in this you should know that, but you obviously do not. Also, by definition and known observation matter cannot be compressed beyond certain levels simply because of the structure it forms and the density, which I see you somehow dismiss in favor of mysticism and concepts beyond your reach that cannot be strictly defined which is the sole goal of science - to have exact definitions of processes and motions. So you dare talking and compare my argument as such made by the church, please gimme a break.

I'm comparing it to the other video where they gave credit to just one woman, title read "The Woman behind the black hole discovery". Yes she did the algorithm but without data, there's no use to it. Everything is interdependent and every cog in the machine is important.
Hats off to all these scientists and hats off to taking another step for mankind.
Great visualisation to explain how the "photo" was taken.

Behold, I've seen the new one as well.
I will never be able to comprehend how something like this actually exists. Too incredible for words.
It really does make sense that a black hole punctures into another string of reality
Yeah, it would make sense to think that the matter goes some where after it's swallowed up.. Spit out into a different universe possibly.
Who knows, maybe on the other end there's a big bang happening? 🤔
@@GettingOnThatBass mmmmm interesting thought, never would consider that.
I wanna wanna explore ths universe i dont care if i die send me on a ship and i would discover if we can breath in space
lmaoo
Bro.. If u want stduy space atleast u have learn about quantum physics...... 🤪🤪
When you go Into space without a suit your eyes and tongue start to melt
@@ElectronicPuffin u never know until u try
hire an auto rikshaw and go to space it will be 10000000000 rs per swaari
Spacetime tells matter how to move; matter tells spacetime how to curve -John Archibald Wheeler
I got really intrigued and super stoked after watching this video.
i would love to know how they measured something 55 million light years away from something as small as Earth
Then you should watch this video!
Did you not listen to what they said? Might want to watch it again, they explain that.
Literally explained in the Video
Watch the video dude, he explains every bit of it !!!! jeez..
“Where do you end up when you fall into a Black Hole?”
“...Vancouver”
I’M SCREAMING
stop screaming
It was Einstein's general theory of relativity that predicted black holes. Einstein (like many physicists until the 1960s) did not believe that such a phenomenon could exist.
P.S. I know it's a historical picture, but when I see it, I can't help but think of a donut.
I'm so proud for humanity !!
