Love how he got right out of politics! If politicians are pushing for a certain policy, we should question them. If scientists are getting grants based on those policies, we should question it.

Science and art not mutually exclusive. Art provides a conduit, intuitive leaps to see possible connections that are yet undiscovered, still waiting to be investigated. Art is the heart while science is the mind. They inform each other.
ryd555 Well, Cox is a theoretical particle physicist, which means he'd have access to just as much information as a cosmologist and a bloody good reason to ensure he utilized it. Rather ironically these days 'Everyone' has access to that same information. Few however know what to look for, what it means, how to even read it, or even where to look for it in the first place! [Hint: Joes blog on magic brainwaves from quantum physics, probably not the source I was suggesting] But I don't think we can hold the world of science responsible for that since they publish it as if its going out of style.
The entire universe or the cosmos is like a cobwebs. The line of action is the fluxes flowing to control the motion including spin the direction change.
Yep, the distance between camera and subject doesn't change distance. (except for maybe 1-2ft) Should be easy to setup that as a focal range. no matter if you zoom or not, the subject hasn't moved.
YES! Audio is by far the most important for this type of video. I can deal with bad focus or blurry video, especially since I don't have to focus on what I see all the time. But if the sound is bad, crackling or whatever, watching, concentrating and understanding become so much harder.
It is great how all these professor's can identify and explain how so many things work but still can only guess how it all came to be observable and it's existence! A GOD!
1:02:00 i said recently that the giveaway that the bible is a fairy story is the "in the beginning" but my reason was that genesis should start with an equation.
I think you have to start some place to get to another. As the two great theories can't be combined is that because one comes before the other is one the prediction of the other?
200 years to put reflecting mirrors in place at a La Grang point Professor Cox? I would suggest that its could feasibly be done within 20 years given the rate of current technology advances and the example of the soon to be launched JWST (on similar principles of deflecting the Sun's radiation in order to keep the mirrors at 40 Kelvin above absolute zero) Not that The Prof reads these comments but an interesting discussion point amongst ourselves perhaps.
I would think that the mirrors needed to reflect enough sunlight would be massive. Much larger than the James Webb and would require international collaboration and pooled resources to manufacture and launch. Getting the world to work together in such fashion could easily be hardest and most time consuming hurdle...
Yes, I agree with your point, but I was really raising the issue of "within 200 years" as suggested by Professor Cox. I would have thought a much shorter time-scale could be achieved.
You listen to Brian nodding your head thinking yes yes I get it but then you realise 5 mins in your brain actually broke and don’t have a friggin clue?
It's a little bit like this: Newton was the explanation for the common mans' observation that things fall down. Einstein was an explanation to Newtons' observation....and now we need to wait for another genius mind to make Einsteins' theory of relativity sound like an observation.
4WIW, This layman wants to know how/why the Universe works as it does. When I gave up on religion and the faith I had the explainition "God dun it" no longer satisfied. The need to be able to answer the questions I've been confronted with in not only my own thoughts but from those who'd reconvert me to the unsatisfactory philosophy of religion requires more knowledge.

That sounds very specific given IQ tests were not developed in Newton’s time and Cox does not appear to be the type to spout off his IQ. At best an estimation.
There IS gravity..it just isn't a force as in Newton's explanation.Einstein realised its actually caused by how two people moving on two lines of earth's longitude start to move nearer to each other as they get closer to the earth's pole.
Like all the current science educators, while the subject matter is great to watch and think about, after you see one of their shows, they very quickly become repetitious, redundant and, well, boring and dull.

Hi, not a globe believer or a flat earther. Don't know what we are living on other than water finds its own level and cannot bend around a oblate ball and stick to it. Thankyou..
What is a wave a circular spread of energy. Because the radius increases you rearrange energy. Energy always reduces. That's why we have emptiness in space. The movement of earth is because of energy from Sun a constant because otherwise earth can fly off. Why does earth spin. Interference of magnetic field of earth to that of Sun light. Magnetic field of Sun can never affect earth because of parallels. If it does it would change poles every year. Pole gain of earth is dew to Sun light. Similarly black holes can never effect any other black holes. Merge means galaxy cross over.
Earth spins cos something started it spinning billions of years ago eg an asteroid skimming off it as it passed.Space is a void so anything that starts spinning has nothing to stop it.For earth's movement around the sun look up Einsteins spacetime curved by the sun's mass.Wheeler summed it up with "Mass tells spacetime how to curve ,and curved spacetime tells mass (earth) how to move.Hence, earths orbit around the sun and not floating off into space.
@@astroroadshow GPS wouldn't work without his time dilation in special relativity. Less gravitational pull where satellite dishes orbit means time moves at a different speed than on earth.The satellites must be adjusted to account for this or else things like GPS would fail .Time dilation is when Time moves at different rates depending on gravity strength or speed of movement.This is so mind-blowing (and experimentally proven), that it should be law to teach it in schools ,in my opinion.Black hole gravity is so strong that time all but slows to a complete stop..-1 second there would equate to an eternity in time .Hubble telescope recently photographed light from nearby stars bending in a circle around a black hole because its gravity is so strong.If theoretically you shone light from inside a blackhole the light would not escape because the gravity would be too strong to allow this.

The expansion looks right but what if the universe was moving creating a VORTEX.
The entire universe or the cosmos is like a cobwebs. The line of action is the fluxes flowing to control the motion including spin the direction change.
The line starts from south to north and ends up in north of others and goes out the south like a flexible ring guided by the neutrino.
The flux lines are just alignment of electrical particles. The flux line exist only in one direction of flow.
These lines can take any shape of network and spin is created once a line is curved
The more the curvature the more the spin and vice versa affect the lines.
When most of the lines are cluttered thunder and big bang theory.
The first rule of videoing these things is - 'Turn the bloody auto-focus OFF!".
Yep, the distance between camera and subject doesn't change distance. (except for maybe 1-2ft) Should be easy to setup that as a focal range. no matter if you zoom or not, the subject hasn't moved.
Rule number 1 is: Make it audible. Thank God they did. The video is not that important if it's just a discussion without a blackboard.
YES! Audio is by far the most important for this type of video. I can deal with bad focus or blurry video, especially since I don't have to focus on what I see all the time. But if the sound is bad, crackling or whatever, watching, concentrating and understanding become so much harder.
