  • I liked the phrase: "In mathematics, invoking infinity is the same as giving up".

  • Comment removed

  • look at all these scientists stumbling in the dark, dont they read when God sais ''it we we who created the universe and it is we who is steadily expanding it''

  • Guys... The big bang happened when Nyan Cat and I TacNayn collided. Duh.

  • There's a simple explanation to this. The Doctor made the universe when the Pandorica crashed into the exploding tardis.

  • This talk of "nothing" being "something" reminds me of the French Revolution in Mel Brooks History of the World Part 1:

    "Nothing, nothing . . . I got absolutely nothing for sale!"

    /watch?v=s4uvLXCUhVg

  • 8:38 funny how noone finds it in any way remarkable that it's an all-male club but if everyone at that table were female noone would fail to comment on it

  • The irony here is that the more science probes into the multi-verse theory of "evolution" because it is just that, an explanation of an infinite cosmos eternally evolving and the those "space-time" properties of the multi-verse mirror the creator who bestow the gift of the physical cosmos to us.

  • This is simply the multi-universe theory. There's no evidence for it. It's just pushing it further and further into an endless regress. There has to be a beginning one way or another.

  • @Shazoolo Agreed it is research which has not become a theorem. However you are only thinking in the way your brain allows you to. A scientists brain has the scope to look at things differently because they are more capable of lateral thinking than you are. Also they have more knowledge than yourself or any layman, me included.

  • @Shazoolo why?

  • but everything looks smooth if you look at it from a big enough scale... one rock looks lumpy but a trillion rocks viewed form far off look like well go look at your drive way or the beach.

  • eureka i have understood nothing !!!!!

  • its not from nothing... its from beginningless time.. infinity

    its not what it appears as.. though it does in appearance... its nondual

  • Even if it was nothing as in the vacuum idea, doesn't that mean something/nothing existed before the universe was born or something existed outside of it?!

  • @Elektr0House

    That's pretty much the point of this entire video, are you even watching it?

  • @luyben12 God has nothing to do with science. And these are just theories. They are not true, untill proven so. The existense iif a "god" has never been proven, so, as a consequense is not true. Simple as that.

  • The dilema here is the fact that the Big Bang is an affect without a "cause".

    And we are searching for that "cause".

    @ 2:01..the narrator said it wrong. "There's an oportunity for a cause to have an effect". The cause always has an effect in our lives.. He was SUPPOSED to say: "There's an oportunity for a effect to have a cause". The "effect" is the Big Bang and we are looking for the "cause" of it.

  • Expanded? Into what! Man this is the most mind boggling thought there is. It's amazing.

  • where did the energy come from when there is nothing? you see, this is what i mean! there must be an orgin!

  • @luyben12

    He's unnecessary, if he could have not 'came out of nowhere' and simply always existed, then so could have the universe. A creator isn't necessary for the universe, if one isn't necessary for God.

  • @luyben12

    Are you trolling? Or just really brain washed lol. And what's this got to do with killing Jews or Christians? Also, religion preaches and spreads ideals, science simply explains observations and, finds truths out through scientific method and testing... then explains to people how things work, and where things come from; including ourselves. That's not 'spreading confusion'.

  • What can you do with a 90 - 110 - 150 - even 250 IQ? Too many limitations with the human brain...

  • why do we care anymore? to disprove religion? to prove religion? i think we should just let those questions be answered once we die, and just live life.!

  • @luyben12

    The chances that a being complex and powerful enough to create an entire fully formed universe with intelligent creatures, just came out of nowhere and made everything is nearly 0; the chances that this being wants worship; are slim; the chances that it'll eternally punish it's '3 year olds' for not believing in something without proof, are slimmer.. and then you have to choose the right God, out of thousands+. Isn't it time we grew up, stopped worshipping bronze age mythology?

  • @luyben12

    God isn't an explanation for where we came from, cause God needs an explanation too lol.

  • people this science disproves a architect of the universe..but if you really listen science proves that there is indeed a creator. the prophet muhammad pbuh said 1400 years ago thats the heavens and the earth came froma single point

  • the biggest star recorded is over 1000000000000000 times the size of earth =D

  • @TheHobbyHub is that even a number xD lol! 

  • Stephen Hawking at 8:23... he's just chillin'

    

  • Lost my faith when I saw that guy was carrying a Sony's DSLR

  • Most interesting that some of these Physicists treat science as a religion whose God is named "Status Quo".

  • lol Lendai's cheese

  • OMG I want his perpetual motion machines on his desk! xD

  • I am 12, my superior intellect allows me to watch these!

    Haha, just kidding but I am 12. (This is my sister's account)

  • @KuromametchiDUDE same (this is my bro's account)

  • @Hello13255 kickass xD

  • i like watching porn in another window while listening to this.

  • I think the First Event was...

    when two equal-and-opposite forces reacted at 90-degrees to form spin, which started a chain reaction represented by the flower of life pattern.

    The photo of atoms in How We Exist (from the Nemescope) shows the same pattern.

    That pattern is simply that of interconnected spheres (like any particle, atom or planet).

  • Comment removed

  • There is a great debate going here (search for): rationalskepticism work-of-harley-borgais

    Here the paper: "How We Exist" is under attack for proposing;

    to explain the first event, before the Big Bang, even before God,

    what is consciousness,

    how matter forms,

    what is dark matter,

    how do black holes form and die,

    all the way up to what happens after you die.

    Come join the debate!

  • Comment removed

  • this is so interesting. the different explanations and views on this subject. Its so interesting because its a thing we dont know and its something we have to discover yet. On school you only get taught the things we already know

  • Then, what is the cause of eternal inflation?

  • Time is an illusion, a perspective. If you take all the perspectives from all points of view, everything would be of an indeterminate size in timelessness. Seeing the world as a kid, makes it seem like everything in relation to you is massive! Seeing it as an adult who has lived long and learned about the world, sees the world in a different model. Seeing other's perspectives keeps changing the quantum realty. That's why we have wars.

  • he said in mathematics that "invoking infinity is the same thing as giving up"? that is all math has ever done as there is no perfect indivisible unit for 1 of anything (except for maybe the infinite universe) infinitely repeating decimals, pi, the square root of 2, ad infinitum.....

  • if the universe is finite, then what is it contained in, giving it shape--and if it is infinite, is there an infinite amount of matter--and if there is infinite space and matter then no single big bang can account for it--and finally is matter infinitely small and is the infinitely small space between infinitely small particles making up matter devoid of anything or is it also infinitely divisible empty space

  • some weed should be going around while we philosophize

  • the narrator is funny

  • 3.The Day when We will fold the heaven like the folding of a [written] sheet for the records. As We began the first creation, We will repeat it. [That is] a promise binding upon Us. Indeed, We will do it.

    And there is much more but youtube not allowed some words:) my respect to everyone

  • With all respect to everyone and to all religions ,THATS what come In "QURAN" about Big Bang

    1.Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe?

    2.And it is He who created the night and the day and the sun and the moon; all [heavenly bodies] in an orbit are swimming.

  • 10^10^10^7 bubble universes????? That's a 1 flowed by 700 zeros, right? (By the way, why not simply saying 10^700 instead?)

    Anyway, that was by far THE most mind-blowing thing I've ever heard in a science documentary, book or lecture. I can't even begin to conceive a number like that.

    In any case, I hope he's not right. It's already hard enough to come to terms with our "tiny" visible universe of a few dozens of billion light years.

  • Comment removed

  • @cristianfcao I forgot to add: Just to have a few reference points on how inconceivable 10^700 bubble universes can be: the approximated number of atoms in a single grain if salt is 10^18, while the total number of atoms in our visible universe is about 10^80.

  • Stuff of this quality is why the BBC is so fucking good and worth the licence fee.

  • Once again, infinite rears its ugly head :p

  • I was all into multiverse theory then this killjoy shows up...Dr. Turok....blah blah blah

  • There is one basic answer that explains it all: "In the beginning, GOD created the heavens and the earth"!

  • i have a theory that befoure the big bang, there was another universe and befoure that was another universe and it repeates until maybe it comes back to us

  • stephen hawkings! wooooo!!

  • what is that he has in his hands?? some kind of rubik cube??

  • ROFL @ thuglife "the gangbang theory" mwahaha one thursday afternoon.

  • ROFL @ thuglife "the gangbang theory" mwahaha

  • so where did the energy come from?

  • @akuap2001

    I have the same question (though not leading to God as an answer).

  • @godawgs06 i understand... though not sounding like a preacher you may like to watch:

    watch?v=Ugyrzr5Ds8o

    to understand how old is this question

  • We need a to have a big gangbang that will explain every thing

  • "Invoking infinity is the same as giving up" I chuckled.

  • lol, if the universe is expanding into the future, then it must be contracting into the past, how far into the past? infinatly, but... how small? infinately small, but... how can we overcome this problem? it seems like the world's best physicists can't deal with infinity

  • science will never answer the why question, only the how.

    god exists

  • @projectbrumaire god might answer the why question (someone's interpretation of course) but it doesn't like you asking anymore why's and especially any how's

  • thats the scariest part..you can tweek science to want you want it to be sometimes

  • whats the song at 5:30?

  • I was watching The Big Bang Theory before I thought of this question. Interesting video

  • Okay, the Universe ISN'T smooth. Look at pictures made of it, simulations, you see big 'clusters' of stars/etc. stretching out in threads, connecting other 'clusters' with almost empty bubbles around it. Its a little bit difficult to explain, but I surely see that as a structure, not the smoothness the infinite inflation (or whatever it exactly was..) is based on. Am I missing something...??

  • This is my kind of thinking. I have never believed in just the Big Bang

  • The universe in formation is very clean, yes, but this is because of gravity cramming all material into revolving spheres and whirls, right? All nubulae and scattered material that can be compared to geosynchronous matter is quite messily thrown about, I would say.

  • I think, to find the calculations to predict what happen at the beginning of the universe, you need to find the calculations for what happened at the beginning of time. but to find the calculations for the beginning of time you need to find the calculations for what happened before the beginning of time :P. which makes the answer to the question "what happened before the big bang?", near impossible.

  • I keep watching these movies but nobody has really explained how everything began.

    What was the ABSOLUTE BEGINNING of EXISTENCE? The beginning of TIME?

  • @Hellblazer311 Well, these videos will probably give you a peek closer, but we don't know it yet and I wonder if we ever will. But I am with the same bugging problem... you can say 'time was always there, its constant' but still, it had to come from SOMEWHERE. When you assume it was always there and will always be there, you are done with calculating and mind breaking, but that isn't fulfilling...

    But how can you find out in what fishboal you're swimming if you're into it yourself?

  • @bellaKohler Yes exactly.

    Its hard for me to imagine that it was always there, I can't accept that.

    But at the same time, what was before time? Total nothingness? That doesn't make sense either.

    I think there must be a third possibility, something totally different that our human minds can't even perceive. 

  • yea guys the kind of nothing we are dealing with at the beginning of the universe is absolute nothing. This is because his version of nothing still has time, which was created at the beginning of the universe in SCIENCE along with religion. Also you still can't create something from ABSOLUTE nothing in science. Because humans can't create absolute nothing (we can't stop space and time yet) all modern theories are done with this guys nothing, thus proving everything on the subject irrelevant.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheDrunkenCabDriver Well, yea.. Kinda. You can always ask yourself, "well how did that come to be?" Really, its a never ending trail of theories.

  • So what caused quantum fluctuations? I am so tired of these cosmologists and scientists pulling whole universes out their quantum hats! I am totally fine with them saying what caused the big bang, but they should not say they know how something came from nothing. A quantum fluctuation is not "nothing".

  • Now i understand how ground-breaking the introduction of the concept of zero was. A major philosophical advancement. just putting that out there, nothing to offer on the origins of the universe but this made me think of zero and how grateful i am that i can take that for granted. We do truly stand on the shoulders of giants.

  • "what caused it to expand" good questiion. hawking says it was "quantum fluctuations" but everything hawking says is vague and untestable. that why cosmology is exciting.

  • One dislike from a god botherer

  • pisses me off that im only getting interested in this stuff at 23. what werent they teaching us at school.

  • @sammysnakejones i'm 21 and i feel the same way but age really is nothing but a number..don't let the negative stigma prevent you from discovering/uncovering the truth about anything and as a result reshape your lifestyle if it's worth the change. Everything happens for a reason, after all, Newton didn't discover gravity at a young age.

  • @sammysnakejones I'd say cause the ones that run the schools don't believe in science, they prolly believe in god.

  • @sammysnakejones They started teaching this in my 5th year of high school :P

  • @sammysnakejones Its better late than never!

  • @sammysnakejones

    I was interested in this in starting in middle school. I'm 35 now. I'm absolutely amazed and fascinated by this. I have two daughters and I've got them interested in this as well. There should be a "me too" button for your post.

  • @sammysnakejones Same, never to late to learn anything though.

  • @sammysnakejones yea there are a lot of bright kids at schools bored to death with their standard teaching subjects and boring syllabuses it's just a training ground for workers to get a grade to prove they learned something/anything to then get a job in some boring subject to make money for the elite

  • yea im 23 as well, and I've learned more about science from the internet than in high school or college.

  • @sammysnakejones

    Probably a combination of religious weirdos destined to protest such teachings, and the common person's lack of intelligence to comprehend or care. Although I didn't major in Astronomy (which has become one of my regrets in life), I did take numerous courses while in college. It is absolutely fascinating, and something I wish would receive more funding from our government.

  • @sammysnakejones haha im getting interested in this stuff at 13 but school barely talks about it. atleast in my grade it doesnt. but anyways yeah space is very interesting.

  • @sammysnakejones i'm 23 and in first year of university now studying theoretical physics. i don't see that as a road block.

  • @sammysnakejones I agree why does no one else care?

  • @sammysnakejones No, you where all ways interested. Just now you know why.

  • @sammysnakejones its funny, if our universe is just one BUBBLE, of the cheese, than what created THE CHEESE? the area that bubbles grow out of?

    Could GOD have created THE CHEESE?

  • @sammysnakejones yeah man same here. I think im just gonna watch lots of youtube vids and read books.

  • @sammysnakejones i love astronomy

  • @sammysnakejones im 14 lol

  • @sammysnakejones indeed

  • @sammysnakejones They were teaching you the right things. It's interesting when somebody tells you the result of a lot of maths and physics in a 60 minute video.

  • Nothing surely always has to be something to be nothing in the first place?

  • I love science because it is ALWAYS looking to correct itself, and always seeking to learn more and more about the nature of the Universe. I love science and mathematics!

  • maybe the multiverse is just one of an infinite number of multiverses and that results in the MultiMultiverse and that is just one of an infinite number making up the MultiMultiMultiVerese (aka Multi x 3 verse) and it may go onto Multi x Infinity verse and then who knows if you just power infinity to that Infinity you just reach higher and it goes on for an eterntiy.

  • @deanmullen10 Saying infinity to the power of infinity is a paradox. Consider the question of if you can achieve infinity then how can you say infinity + 1? In mathematics (which is the language by which M-Theory, String Theory and almost all other theoretical physics is described) the whole idea of infinity is very debatable, this is one of the reasons why Hubble's theory is also disputable. So looking at the matter of the start of the universe based on a mathematical model requires caution.

  • Damn, don't spoil the solution to the burr puzzle!

  • I AM TUROK! Professor Turok that is.

  • Before time and space there was the eternal and because we live in the realm of space and time we cannot imagine the eternal. This is what we call 'God'. It is not supernatural, it is the hidden knowledge, the thing we seek through revelation. Religion is our own way of communicating with the eternal. Science tried to reveal and explain it. I believe that Science and Religion can inform each other. The universe is a place where the rational and the irrational co-exist.

  • @aladdinsaneagain It seems constant throughout history that once an explanation cannot be perceived the idea of 'God' is substituted into the argument. However, once a suitable, empirical explanation is produced God is immediately removed. Instead of lazily invoking God in what is beyond the universe I simply call it unknown. Since the universe comprises of all time, matter and energy, what is outside our universe is beyond our horizon view.

  • @aladdinsaneagain Just as analogy if I were to build an infinitely large tower in central United States I would never be able to see Moscow, Russia. It simply beyond my horizon view and this is how I view what is beyond the universe.

  • Comment removed

  • You know, all the research all these arguments, they are all a waste of valuable energy that could be spent doing other things.Like crocheting or scratching things. You will all feel pretty silly when I prove my theory that our entire universe is just a bit of cheesy stuff dangling from the ballsack of some sweaty creature taking a dump.

  • Hawking!!

  • "And in mathematics, invoking infinity is the same as giving up" Cantor would be so offended by this.

  • Universe so large ? When will this scientists (babies) learn anything ? how do you define huge? Truth is this is not the first big bang. there was unlimited big bangs before and whole universe get destroyed and then again big bang its a circle. Truth is there is no universe everything is empty.

  • Universe so large ? When will this scientists (babies) learn anything ? how do you define huge?

Truth is there is no universe everything is empty.

  • I think our universe is just one of a many filled in one big

  • Take a balloon. Write "inside" on the inside wall of that balloon. Now turn the balloon inside out. How big is the "inside" of the balloon. Now blow the balloon up. The "inside" shall then get smaller. Time space flips inside out allowing for matter and antimatter to do just this.So quantifying this tangibly makes impossible to putting a sum to the size of something that is unknown. Infinity is not a cop out if it's true.

  • all this does is delay an understanding of the initial point of creation. If you say that there was in fact something before the big bang (Kaku's "perfect vacuum") then that point of time before the big bang also needs to come from somewhere. If the universe has a beginning then it has to have come from absolute nothing.

  • If all you saps spent your time on something useful, rather than yapping about stuff you can't change, we'd have cured world hunger by now. God would have made it spring forth out of barren soil and atheists would have used their smarts to distribute it fairly.

  • big bullshit

  • I don't get it...

  • @QuantumQuacks Dude i just made up random shit. I didn't actually mean it... besides. The nothing can't collapse in on itself without gravity ;)

  • His parents are Japanese Buddhists so he knows what he talks about

  • @BeamSurfer hahaha ya right

  • I love how people talk about religion in these videos. I dont give two shits to people who try to "Convert". I mean i'm a Christian but I dont try to convert my friends or family because I know i'll find other people to chill with up there. If someone doesn't want to believe in a god/goddess or a big bang, dont do anything. Just my thoughts.

  • and then we'll find out all these universes are part of a bigger universe., FUCK THIS BLOWS MY MIND

  • Asian marriage **busizz4me.info**

  • Here we go.

    At the beginning, there was nothing. An infinite amount of nothing, if you will. The nothing was so great, that it caved in on itself creating a nothing hole. As the nothing caves in on itself, it creates a spark of energy that then creates an instance of matter that then creates the big bang. Religion, I win.

  • @DestinyThrawn

    hahahahahaha

    no, try again.

  • why is it every time i try to enjoy a physics documentary there is little talk about physics in the commentary and alot of talk about religious bullshit? who cares if some nutters believe in a god or unicorns or shit, let them, lets talk physics instead :)

  • @dutubarn

    If you believe in God it is simply because you think Gravity is a law placed on purpose. Our existence, the existence of the universe, all comes back to the law of gravity. Either you think the law of gravity has always existed for ever for no reason and all religions are lying, or there might be some sort of higher power, and we should show humility.

    TO compare Gods to Unicorns show your naivety and delusion.

  • @VegasSkateCulture well no religions speak of gravity ceritainly not christianity... the consept of gravity wasnt thought of before newton. And well i do believe all religions are lying. If a man sits at home home saying a few latin words over a bowl of oatmeal in order to make elvis come back to life, he would be nuts. Yet people believe that saying a few words over a cracker will turn it into the body of christ.... religion is delusion inforced by mass conviction

  • @dutubarn

    your a moron. im not talking about religion, im talking about god.

    and the cracker thing is symbolic.

  • @VegasSkateCulture well u said "think all religions are lieing" so you were talking about religion. And if you're talking about god there is no need for one to explain the laws of physics read up on chaos theory and you will find something that explain nature in a much more beautiful way than some entity with a magic wand. And god doesn't explain everything cause you are then faced with the question who created god... and if god can be eternal then why can not the laws of physics...

  • @dutubarn and the cracker thing my religious friend is not symbolic by any means, catholics believe the cracker is turned into the spiritual body of christ, religion has no place in science so stop trying...

  • @dutubarn God doesn't play by the rules of the universe. It's like a kid is playing a game, can't the kid cheat? The kid is on another level compared to the game and thus doesn't have to follow the rules of his game. Same thing with us; we are pieces or dice or cards that have to follow the rules of the game, or rules of science, but God can do what he wants. Please don't take this analogy to seriously and say, "Well the kid didn't make the game board from nothing," just think about what i said.

  • @dutubarn i think the only religions worth studying r d ones dat dont claim to know god nd dont claim dat god wrote thr book,coz the ones dat do make this claim dont hav any proof coz without god involved in these religions fail,whreas religions wich can work without a god-buddhism,jainism,hinduism,­confucianism,taoism r d one's worth studying coz whether they may be right or not depends on the way u perceive them but atleast they make a genuine effort to solve human problems

  • @dutubarn why you write God with "g" ?

  • @dutubarn

    Well said!

  • this guy has cheese in his brains... what a russian redneck

  • this is what i think, the big bang didn't create the universe but it was a new chapter in our universe. Because there will always be cause and effect and if we look at our universe all the stars, galaxies are moving away and then newtons 3rd law comes in and the big crunch happens which brings everything back to a singularity and since all matter was inside one point space wasn't even space it was nothing and if theres nothing theres something like anti-matter and if you mix both you get a bang

  • 8:24 - quite the cameo! :D

  • Yes inflation was there from the very beginning. But that inflation occured to one's ego rather than the universe :-)

    Such inflation was necessary, for without it none of these PhDs would have believed even for a moment that they could answer such big questions with any definitiveness.

    From that point onward only slow but persistent DEflation was observed :-)))

  • A "smooth" universe? A joke, right? At least 90% of the universe is termed "dark matter" and you have silly things happen when you travel near the universal speed limit or when you play around with atoms.

  • we just need to ask the squid what's true. the squid knows all.

  • @ZeppelinFloydRoses i thought it was an octapuss

  • point to note :: Photons which isnt nothing as photons are the smallest particles of matter which isnt just energyPhoton is a infinitely small universe itself and has substance.

  • I was Playing with God Football During the Big Banggggggggg :p

  • I like Michu but his theory is not a not scientific theory. If you have energy then you cant call it nothing, and you still have to deal with infinite regression. If we can infer as he does then why cant we infer something powerful that exist outside of space and time. Is a creator really super natural or is it that we don't understand nature as well as we do? These are not scientific principles because science refused to consider them. Michu is fooling himself in believing his is different.

  • @benthemiester If something exists beyond the context of nature and physics, then by all means it is "supernatural."  However, for science, that is not a useful thing to consider. Kaku is not atheist... he overly credits things science doesn't explain to theological facinations... Then again, Kaku isn't a serious scientist, but a Horizon celebrity. String/M Theory is utter shit and that's going to come out sooner or later.

  • @dennisjiewenliu If we had lived in the15th century & saw people communicating with cell phones we would have thought it to be supernatural, not because it really was supernatural but because we just had a more limited understanding of nature at that time. We as humans don't like to admit that we don't know everything, & if we cant figure it out, or it's beyond our means to understand, then it must be super natural, when in fact it could be as natural as rain or cell phones.

  • 4:02

    I am seriously begging someone to tell me what that music is called. It's so thoughtful yet has such an echo to it like it's empty in a somewhat sad way, it's almost how I think of the universe. But no really, what is it called???
