  • If everyone saw this series, they would not risk ending our world with nuclear missiles, they would want us to live as long as we could and figure out and respect the very fact that we exist.

  • you cant have something without nothing. they're united.

  • @WhenYourStrange93 "something without nothing" They are mutually exclusive. This video is where his theory went into sci-fi

  • "Mathematics would certainly have not come into existence if one had known from the beginning that there was in nature no exactly straight line, no actual circle, no absolute magnitude." Friedrich Nietzsche.

  • Nothing from nothing leaves nothing. Ya got have something... to build a universe!

  • all of this from a few hundred year old equation.....LOL

  • The "Beeg Beng" ?

  • @BanBoil The requirement is energy... LOTS of it. Far more than we can produce now.

    @Dwojy Well hopefully it won't break the laws of physics when it does. If it creates a new big-bang and travels at the speed of light we will have about 14 billion years to come up with a solution. If it creates additional space-time, maybe even more.

  • @Talven81 It most likely will break the laws of physics... Just look at how fast our universe expanded, :[ I'm guessing any big bang will be faster than light in expansion.

  • I'm not sure about the requirement of actually seeing strings in the laboratory in order to prove it. If string theory can accurately and succinctly describe all of the forces and interactions that we CAN observe then the reality of strings are inferred. Quantum Mechanical wave functions have this abstract, unobservable quality to them as well, but we accept the theory because it accurately describes what we are able observe.

  • my balls are parallel to each other as well

  • @sask523 Luckily, life as we know it won't end when they collide.

  • Face it, we dont know everything. Only way we'd be able to would be to step out of our universe, which isn't going to happen as we are right now. So, for now, I'll just keep hoping for flying hover cars.

  • EVERYONE: Beleive me or not but we all and everything we know is just fungus growth between two bread loaves....

  • Does anybody know the name of the NOVA program that this series is from? Thanks!

  • @LeviMcClellan The Elegant Universe

  • @LeviMcClellan the elegant universe.. it is also a book, written by brian greene :)

  • everyone knows the big bang was caused by Chuck Norris roundhouse kicking the universe into existence

  • @stopthesoftkill who/what created chuck norris?

  • *noms on the Universe*

    what? I'm just hungry

  • Haven't taken the time here to read through the comments so apologies if this idea has been talked over already ... but ... a thought ... that instead of two branes colliding, ours is simply a brane that has moved into this dimension that we experience ... and that all branes contain (produce?) elements of consciousness that experience them at their particular current dimension.

  • My brane hurts......

  • Alan from two and a half men! 6:20

  • Religion is for pusis my friend.

  • my mind is blown

  • :3 he said big bang theory

  • @Jrkoop53 So?

  • @MidMASS2 It's a tv show.... And it's awesome...

  • @Jrkoop53 Oh, I see.

  • Thing is... even if this is correct, WHY does it happen? Why is anything?

  • December 2012: our brane collides with another brane.

  • @Dwojy18 Hahaha, as a joke, I was thinking about making the exact same comment. Then I looked down and saw that it was already written, touchè.

  • Hahaha, "I told you never to call during The Simpsons!" Btw, did the alien have a stereotypical Asian accent, or am I just slightly racist?

  • There was no big bang; it is kind of like dropping a penny to the floor. Does it ever hit the floor? No it never does. The universe is expanding but will it ever hit the so called floor. The space between the expansion flows between itself.

  • I have the weirdest boner from seeing parallel universes collide.

  • this is very speculative

  • I will reject this string theory because it doesn't prove anything.

  • Uhhh... I don't know about you guys, but I'm thinkin a brane collision would NOT be good for our universe... That or I just have no Idea what they're talking about here and I should just shut up. I'm thinkin the latter...

  • @jlyden86 lol, why did they mark your comment as spam?

  • @loveslashdeath I haven o idea

  • science bitches.

  • If religious people don't like this then don't watch documentary's on Science

  • Its times like this I wish I was better at maths and physics. I keep wanting more evidence so I go and looking for all the work/evidence behind these theories but get lost with all the crazy equations within 10 minutes. Holy crap these guys are crazy smart if they can work with numbers like this.

  • @smithy11742 Start small. Maths is very logical. Understand what math they are using and learn that math. All available on the net and none of it beyond you. Khanacademy is a great youtube channel with bitsize vids that will take you a long way.

  • So, a string (blackhole) in our own brane/universe/reality/dimensi­on (dont know how to call it), would be a part of an infinites others, going outside of our own brane. Making the total number of universe totally infinites, with an infinite number of strings/black holes going trough branse/dimensions and vibrating ... So if we are nothing more than a little tiny brane for anothor dimension/universe made of an infinite number of branes too ... wow i dont even want to think about this lol.

  • Maybe it makes no senses, but there i go : Could the movements of the membranes be produced by blackholes? I mean, if they vibrates it should be because there is something attracting them in some way "gravity". So maybe when black holes as finaly "emprison" everything our universe is made of : bang colision, a new big bang, because the strengh of gravity in this universe is now strong enough to collide with another dimention. This might be why "branes" can grow and shrinks ? just an idea ...

  • Ok, someone just explain to me, why couldn't God or some force or something have created the big bang?

  • @KONGbeGONE Can you first explain to me why we need a God to have created the big bang?

  • @christheferal well explain why we need string theory. To explain where we came from. If a God does exist, then some scripture would be true, so it would explain not just where the soul comes from, but where it goes. Now I know I could be getting off of the science topic, but isn't understanding why science exist. It just seems like your either all big bang or all religion. Why can't you have both?

  • @KONGbeGONE You can have both, but I don't understand why you need both.

  • @KONGbeGONE I'm not going to agree or disagree with either of you. However, I'm going to say this: either be a philosopher or a scientist. Trying to be both will only end up with you trying to get evidence to fit into something it may or may not fit.

  • Brian called aliens during the Simpsons....lol..capitol offense.

  • folks theres lots of crazy shit going on out there that we dont know about.

  • Note to self : never call aliens during The Sympsons.

  • the solution to the big bang is time. there is no end. no beginning. time is one of the loop strings just like a graviton

  • If parrallel universes can interact with each other then they would be the same universe, right?

  • @imsocool7222 Proably not. That does not make sense to me :p. Think of two boats on the ocean and each have phones on board to contact the other boat. Boats as the universes and the ocean seperating them, The phones can contact the other boats but do not exist In the same place by the ocean seperating them. But now imagine the boats just being a mirror of one boat, the one boat being are universe. So you might say each one Is the same when actually they are different too In a sense.

  • @SunderiseN Boats? No, I mean, our energy on this universe is different than their energy, if it's a totally different universe than our existenses are separate and our time isn't happening at the same time as theres, you could say that we are just beggining and they're just ending or you could say that they started at the same time and it wouldn't make a difference anyway because they have no interactions with each other.

  • @imsocool7222 Oh alright I see now. Yes they would be the same If the theory was right. But since they are different then that would mean you would have to contact the being or what ever you say In the future or past. It's really interesting because that insane channel guy Bashar says he does that and explians It. All you would have to do Is contact yourself In the past or future somehow<Lol. Crazy stuff though Isnt It?

  • There are too many things that you can't close up when trying to find a theory of everything. Okay what holds the branes together. why do they move. why are universes continuous. It is how it is and thats how it is. Physics is a never ending cycle and there will never be an theory of everything. I'm going to go back to eating my bread and being blissfully ignorant.

  • big bounce theory takes the floor nerds!!!! also the repeating big bang: make sme think of the ultimate dejavu. its ina religious text. :P think it was the quran,.

  • big bounce theory takes the floor nerds!!!!

  • Could be that our universe is some kind of super nova from a larger denser universe and like how light doesn't come from a black hole we can't see the light from the larger denser universe. Could be that tommorow we'll end up like a can full of air pulled to the bottom of a deep ocean trench when the "edge of the universe" tidal wave returns. Wouldn't even see it coming because of relativistic time distortion . And they wonder why the universe is accelerating. Accelerating to doom. :)

  • The beginning made me lol

  • the man on the sreen is a philosopher, man.

  • I don't fucking get it, before they said we are right next to other branes. Then why aren't they colliding? What is binding me to this brain? Is it a bubble around the universe or is it woven through our very atoms?

  • I don't understand why people believe in a beginning and nothing. You can look at atoms and say that they are mostly nothing. After all the useless labels are thrown around we are left with the fact that nothing that we have ever seen has a beginning. If you believe that our lives have a clear cut beginning as well then, our human race is fucked

  • Oh Ya !! tell me what formed the string , it dint pop off of nowhere you know -.- u might say braine , if u are going to say that then what formed the braine , what formed what formed the braine it keeps going :D

  • if feel like Mario Lopez cancelled on hosting this show at the last minute...

  • Comment removed

  • thees guys are sooo soopid. everywon nows that God created the universe. Theer wuz no big bang.

  • @sechenry6 too stupid to understand Science ? Try Religion.

  • @sechenry6 too stupid to understand Science ? Try Religion.

  • @DoNotLaughAtMe Science: The powerful gravity wave to the square root to use the M Theory of supernova eplosions stars of the reletively theory shows that......

    Religion: Its because of God

  • @DoNotLaughAtMe That statement appears to be beligerently ignorant.

  • @DoNotLaughAtMe Whoa man uncalled for. People can believe what they want.

  • @s8ndry They can, but I'm so sick of people claiming their beliefs as truth and real.

  • @DoNotLaughAtMe Yeah I know how you feel.

  • @s8ndry totally pure statement man......................relig­ion has all these mysteries solved in it...............nd that is one and only one ISLAM

  • @MsNaeem11 Like I said. People can believe whatever they want.

  • @s8ndry hmmmmmmmm.......

    

  • @DoNotLaughAtMe So stupid you disregard possiblities of which we have no concept of? Yes, try religion.

  • @DoNotLaughAtMe science and religion aren't mutually exclusive

    "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind." - Albert Einstein

  • @soadfan700 Yup :D, btw those are his opinions. Some people may think science isn't lame without religion.

  • @sechenry6 um are you joking. if so very funny joke. but if not why is there no proof of god

  • @sechenry6 Wow, you give christians a bad name. Its called theory, open your mind.

  • @sechenry6 religion is fading away. it had its grip of humanity in the 1400s. everyone knows there is no god.

  • @4:28 how do they colide if they are tiny wraped up dimentions??

  • If you take this far enough...in this universe we live in...the string thoery is true but in a highger dimension, maybe it's not, in other universes this is all bullshit but then again...maybe here too. So...where do we stop searching for answer with no question?

  • ahh...they talk about branes colliding as an answer...like always it just poses more questions...

  • If gravity in our universe is leaking to other universes around us. Then those guys there have really fucked up weight :D

  • @nosachamos said:

    "Is there anything worst than realizing that your whole effort is spent on something1-no one cares2-no one can validate3-no one can use and probably no one ever will?"

    That's exactly what smart guys would have said to Einstein's in the 19 century if they knew what he was doing. However nowadays is not only everywhere (lasers, modern electronics, nuclear power, everything) but he is also known to almost everybody and crowned the Person of the Century by TIME magazine.

  • This happened on fringe, it didn't end well, as we ended up destroying the parallel universe!

  • 1:04-120 Lol thats what she said..

  • lol thanks, sorry about that. thanks sir.

  • two Brains moving prior to the big bang? Brains?

  • @Rico8458 Branes (see previous videos)

  • A reason that the big bang theory could not be true is that during such an explosion of a highly dense particle, a rather large amount of energy would be given off. If such a large magnitue of energy were indeed given off then there would be traces of energy still exsisting in our current universe and in our planet.

  • Scientists say big bang starts Space and Time, and the universe expanded from nothing during the big bang, so there's no such a thing called 'Space' existed before the big bang, then how do we know universe is expanded but not getting smaller during the big bang? there's nothing u can compare the size with...

  • @imnotjacob acording to this (GFMfW1jY1xE9) (search youtube) the universe is a off-shot from a very old dead calm universe -the thing you call time is only order going to unorder and space creates itself from dark energy -from emptiness- So in about 10 x a google year we will enter a state of total empiness... and there will be no we forever until since the universe is empty then it can create a new one-this will take a forever time and will occur forever.. imagine that

  • to think its only 2010

  • @andreaandrewmilnefan you are one aggressiv person, I don't like that :/

  • eating bread is too much easier than thinking about string theory..

  • It's funny how people who know so much about the subject watch a documentary on M-theory.

  • Wrong.

  • I have a theory:

    Mathematically speaking, think of everything from the beginning of this universe as a continuously evolving chaos algorithm that begins on a quantum mechanical scale that accelerated to hyper-relativistic speed and complexity moments after the Big Bang. This algorithm is also much like a hash algorithm; it can be encrypted, but not decrypted. It can only be paired with a signature pattern using the same seed and mathematical framework. Hence, the equations break down.

  • @TheFluxgate stfu

  • A universe expanding and then collide,is that the purpose of dark energy?To expand the universe to eventually collide and then produce a new universe.

  • May i know what is currently the problem with M-Theory?

  • WTF

  • it seems that string theory could explain why light acts like both a particle and a wave. much like a curve ball or one of those cat toy balls with the motor inside.

  • @jcoronet2000

    but that won't explain young's double-slit experiment and how the observer affects the results

  • why does every you tube conversation always digress into a swearing match? The thing I hate about an argument is that it always interrupts a discussion. - G. K. Chesterton

  • Our existence is easy to solve. Chuck Norris bumped into our dimension and caused the big bang.

  • LOL THAT ALIEN WAS FREAKING CUTE AND FUNNY

  • nice accent . "Theoreticaly" lool

  • Are the Branes continuous or discrete?

    For big branes does the speed of light represents a constraint?

    How many strings are there in a photon of light and how they "control" its speed?

  • It would be nice to be able to measure this. But remember!!!! .The idea that earth was round was outlawed at one point. It's clearly flat when you look around you. Don't be so silly. It's a flat earth, How dare you try to imagine what earth is really like using "theory" and then set out to prove your idea correct through experiment. Thats far too scientific :-)  you fools science is all wrong... Except at the end when it turned out it was right.. Fancy that... Go science.. He muttered!

  • Jesus Christ men. We're adults here, let's act like adults and don't feed the fire. We have our own opinions and instead of arguing, just sit back and watch the video.

  • It's interesting that String theory has the "problem" of being untestable when from the onset it seems that any theory attempting to explain our universe at this level would be "untestable." It's times like this when I wish I could live a few hundred years longer just to see how well we do with all of this.

  • @andreaandrewmilnefan say what?! o.O yeah all other people that don't like you (just look around) are also clones of the nosachamos youtube user.... uhsadushausuahdsuadsa you paranoid arrogant freak

  • @andreaandrewmilnefan It's clear who is the one here with the arrogance. I feel sorry for your family and friends, but mainly for your family that is stuck with you. Who's life a made a misery? Yours? That's impossibly, honey. Your life is already miserable enough. Is there anything worst than realizing that your whole effort is spent on something 1 - no one cares 2 - no one can validate 3 - no one can use and probably no one ever will? I don't think so. Go back to your cave, now. LOL... ;-)

  • @andreaandrewmilnefan Are you really unable to read, moron? I have said 3 or 4 times I'm not a physicist, moron. Get over it!! LOL.... The only thing that really worries me is that you are not the only one out there, your type is more common than it should be. LOL.... you are a lost case, get over it.

  • @andreaandrewmilnefan LOL... As I'm sure u know (:D), particles are represented by vectors in a hilbert space. Lie algebra is useful because most symmetries from lie groups, but those are complex to calculate. Many people prefer to work with the corresponding, much simpler, lie algebras (who doesn't like matrices? :D). Like I said I'm not a physicist, but your question don't demand one, so basic it is, which supports my point u being a 12 year old girl. A moron one. LOL....

  • @andreaandrewmilnefan LOL.. what a Moron... LOL.. it's official, you are the douche of the day... LOL... you are probably a 12 year old that has recently discovered the F work trying to play smart after copying and pasting some terms you have absolutely no idea about from wikipedia.. uhduasdhusa what a moron. I'm not a physicist, neither a troll like you. I'll tell you, you are not the only one.. this youtube is flooded with stupid kids like you. Get a life, you fucking moron.

  • @nosachamos yeah dude, don't waste your time... by the way this guy (most likely a girl) talks its probably a fifth grader suahdsuahdusiahdsadsaasa but I'll tell u, what a bitch she is ashuashuasuhaaasasa

  • @DarkSpiritLight no worries, this type of moron is all over the place on youtube. Like I said, probably a 12 year old.. LOL.. if this bitch is really a physicist, her issue is probably related to the fact that I have thrown on her face that probably she will spend her life of math models that are so far from getting a use or being validated or rejected that she couldn't hold being angry. I wouldn't blame her, that's a miserable and in big part useless life. I'd probably be angry too. :D

  • @nosachamos I laughed so hard at that.What happened to kids nowadays?

  • @nosachamos true that and I bet this queef probably took a break from his 5-7 hours of call of duty a day so he could watch youtube and talk about how he knows everything about anything because his self esteem is borderline zero.

  • @andreaandrewmilnefan Theoretical has lately become almost a philosophy instead of a practical science. Most of what is discussed today is so far from any observation or practical validation that it doesn't really matter who is right or wrong. Until we find a way to interact and make use of with such things, they are not more than nice math models. Given the fact you were unable to understand my previous post you probably won't understand this one either, but... whatever... :-)

  • @andreaandrewmilnefan haha girls like you? dude, all of the people that come to this and similar pages share interest in the matter. I understand a moron like you can't see why this video has 100K visits and Justin Bieber's has 10 million, and that's what I was talking about. Average public is not interested because they are trained not to since they are born.

  • maybe we do feel the effects of colliding branes. If gravity is the only looped string that can "leak" off of the fabric of our universe, then the obvious question is, what happens at the opposite end of a black hole in which gravity is at its strongest? maybe black holes connect with a parallel brane in hyperspace and from the center of that connection, a new universe is born from the immense energies

  • @infinitenight2093

    if black holes connected with a parallel brane, then the law of causality would be defied.

    if they did, then there would be no doubt that the brane can wrap around itself, and if one were to travel thru the black hole and across other universes, then there's no question that that person can also come back to this universe BEFORE the time they left it. and then the paradox begins

  • @hkpopfan4lif3 There are many paradoxes that accompany physics (particularly quantum physics). IMO paradoxes just reveal a flaw in the theory, However, my statement does not bring any paradoxes because I didn't include a way to traverse the black hole (I don't believe that black holes can be traversed at all, just wormholes) I stated that black holes may join at the center of two universes, and from the center, a new universe is born.

  • @infinitenight2093 I have also thought about this.

  • It's like multidimensional sex!

  • what if these brians are life its self

  • I feel all good fantasy ideas are patented as string theory. It's like it says "We have imagined all possible scenarios for you, so you don't have to!" Normal people with ideas miss their right to be controversial, I want the good all days when being crazy was not boring. Why not find out what life actually is? Or is it too big to fit string theory? Either way, it can't explain high temperature semi-conductors. Ha ha!

  • I don't understand why people believe this to be a waste of time and resources. First, who cares if these physicists invest their time into this theory. It's their time. The theory itself is proven with math,and in physics, math can explain quite a few things.They might prove it correct or in the end, we find 1 way the universe was not created. Like Thomas Edison and the light bulb. The guys experiments failed over 2000 times…

  • … times, but he used the information gained from his failures and created something magnificent.

    Second, trying to prove this theory correct by using a giant particle accelerator that costs a shit load of money might seem like wasted resources. We cooould be spending this money on research that might help cure a disease or spend it to combat world hunger.We can make several arguments here. A. their money. B.What are you doing to help others? C.The information gained will still lead to a HUGE..

  • ...HUGE breakthrough. They prove M-Theory to be false, we shift our attention in another direction. IF true... panda-monium, yes, pandas everywhere will go ape shit.

  • All these humping banging branes are turning me on

  • OPAH! NOW I WILL BREAK A PLATE FOR ZORBA!

  • oh so first the extra dimensions are tiny and curled up. Then they give rise to new worlds, we can communicate with. Oh yes, please where are the UFOs? When was the last time you talked to a branian?

  • I don't know if I agree with the idea "gravity" is weak. EM may be stronger than Earth's gravity, but as we know gravitational force is much higher on other planets. Jupiter's gravity is capable of crushing humans and many other things. So when they call "gravity" weak are they saying all gravity? Earth's gravity?

  • @A2Kaid It is very very weak in comparison to EM. On all planets, everywhere.

  • that Be-Ba stuff it's cool .. let's have one this fryday!!!

  • I've always thought that my brain was larger than the universe, but to say that it created the universe is just too flattering.

  • @AziMeX no not 'brain" they are referring to a "membrane" or "brane" for short. you should go back and watch a few of the previous vids.

  • @justinwnichols03 dude, I was being sarcastic.
