To humans, everything must have a beginning and an end. But, what if this was not the case, and we just couldnt comprehend it yet? If you really want to know what comes after death....just imagine your consciousness before you were conceived. That's right..you can't..our consciousness waxed into existence and it will wane out the same way..As the universe remains eternal and infinite.
alright, so lets add some philosophy to all this cosmological conjecture... let us consider the "causality" or the law of cuase and effect... at that point where "our knowedge stops" directly after the big bang, where do we go from there? did nothing really explode? for no reason? with no cause? and then evetually give birth to reason and order?? ....just a few questions froman ex-atheist:) keep the faith.
@2010ksaul any other intelligent being that managed to evolve somewhere else in the universe would ask the same questions..they would also think that they too, were alone, upon not being able to navigate past the vast distances and not comprehending the incomprehensible scales of time. Thus leading them to the conclusion that they must have a "purpose" or "reason" for existence. The fact is, that we don't..the only difference between us and the dinosaurs is that we are merely smarter.
@2010ksaul and as far as the big bang...that is just creation in disguise..The universe is infinite. Even if there was a big bang, it was just a continuation. It was a continuation in the same sense of a huge star exploding then coming back together again to form a new star (or black hole depending on the situation). Can a lizard comprehend language or ponder the thoughts of others? Can it wonder? imagine? I believe we can not yet comprehend all that the universe is.
@SulcZp Lizard?? first off, asserting that the universe is"infinite",sounds like a faith based statement to me... faith in the great Incomprehencable Nothing that is sooo far beyond all physics, logic, or reason, that we should just follow our little imaginations wherever they might lead; second you should lookup the word "redshift" as it pertains to our universe's "finite" begining (and it does not line up with the rebounding theory either), question every hypothosis but dont ignore logic.
@2010ksaul and i agree with most of this. but i promise you i'm not of faith...but we do seem to keep finding smaller and smaller particles. when will it ever end! :/ but in other news...im all for hypothesis and logic but is religion not a product of our "little imaginations" as you put it? you claim to be of faith so jw. but anyway yes i am familiar with the concept of the expanding universe and its corresponding increasing rate there of....but if its finite..wheres all the matter going?
@SulcZp believing in something that has no imperical supporting evidence (i.e. an infinite universe) shure sounds like faith to me.... or do you just know in a metaphisical gnostic kinda way? That is a good question though, IS God a product of our imagination? If the God of the bible is real, than we would expect to see evidence of a finite universe that had a beginning, and maybe evidence of design/order throughout the universe, and curiously enough we do.. or it just appears that way?
wow just imagine our galaxie is just a small spec in this universe there could be 500x bigger galaxies out there HELL there could be a planet out there bigger than our galaxie you never know.
I saw it in 3d, but it had a voice over in the one I saw explaining it. I wish I had the one with the voice over, but it may have been a special one for that Space and Rocket center, and I have no clue how to find it or who was speaking.
Hey I saw an Imax Video when I was young, where it went from Atoms to Galaxies zooming out the scale by a magnitude of ten each time. Do you know what that video is called or where to find it?
@UppruniTegundanna Hey thanks man now that I have the name maybe I can find it. I told my girlfriend about it a while back, and it would go great in a few videos.
@jesuskopp Then he would be wrong. Religion relies on blind faith. Science relies on evidence. Lemaitre would never have been able to make any contribution to science if he had let his faith interfere with his scientific work.
I would love to teach a night school course in this type of engaging science. Teach it to adults and maybe they would engender some passion in their children for science that exists out of the classroom. This would hopefully play a small part in reversing the downward slide of scientific understanding and decrease in popularity of undergraduate science degrees in the UK....
Thats why we rely on the guys who spend their whole lifes in the subjects contributing what they can to the greater cause of knowledge. They don't expect everyone to understand how they came across their findings (that have been put through plenty of cross-examination and tests), but when they're right, you sorta have to trust the professionals
Not the guys collecting hand-outs at churches claiming they know it all.
I know but it still seems to be in hypothesis realm. i know, the keyword is seems, and i don't have their level of education on the matter. whereas evolution is testable, i just don't understand what exactly we have to be able to test results on such ideas yet. i know the large hadron collider is supposed to do that, i just wish they would popularize this stuff a little more, even if it is complex as all hell. if they did that they wouldn't have people not seeing the forest for the trees
how in the hell do they figure out all that stuff like split seconds after the big bang of such an insanely large entity. i mean i can understand calculating that the universe came from a singularity, but i don't know how math merely argues into existence what happened split seconds after the big bang and how/when the forces were created beyond just really loose theory...on paper that's what it seems but it may be very different given some random fluctuations in physics.
A question about gravity: traditionally it is viewed as one of the four fundamental forces, but I thought the theory of relativity argued that it is a manipulation of the space-time fabric due to mass.
So, is it a manipulation of space-time, a force, or both?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
well... this video was nothing compared to what this video "responded" to... sorry the big bang just wasn't explained so an educated person could understand it. I'm no monkey, good pig that was poorly put together
Thank you for clearing up the confusion. I did not realize that there could be enough mass to sustain fusion for that long! However this makes sense because our galaxy is estimated to 100000 lt years which means it could not be 13 billion lt years. Thanks.
All I am saying is that the star formed 13.2 billion years ago..not that it lasted for 13.2 billion years!. Besides I am not sure if nuclear fusion can last that long. Although I am curious how they arrived at the figure. Anyone in astronomy expert opinion sought.
I wouldn't say I'm an expert, but my understanding is as follows. Firstly, our own sun will eventually die after 10 billion years, which is not far off 13.2 billion years in relative terms. The rate at which a star burns up its fuel is related to its mass, the lower the mass, the longer it burns. The star mentioned in the video is 0.8 solar masses (80% of the mass of our sun) , and is in the red giant stage of its development, meaning it is just about dead.
In response to Gordonthegopher666. That is because the light from 13.2 billion years ago just reached earth. That is we are just observing the star as it was 13.2 billion years ago. The star has probably burned itself out. However that information won't reach us for let us say another 1 billion years. I hope that clarifies
I know the star is not 13.2 billion lt years away because our galaxy is only 100000 lt yrs in diameter. Besides light traveling for 13.2 billion years does not make something exactly 13.2 billion lt years away because space has expanded faster than the speed of light during inflationary periods. I am curious though how they get that figure. 13.2 billion probably means the time the star was formed not that it lasted that long. I don't think nuclear fusion can sustain that long. I am a bit confu
HE 1523-0901 is actually a red giant and 7500 light years away. Becoming a red giant is the last thing that stars of a certain mass do. Our sun for instance will become a red giant in 5 billion years or so, having already existed for around 5 billion years - 10 billion years in total. The length of time it takes to get to that stage is related to how massive the star is. This one must be slightly less massive than the sun to have lasted this long.
you guys should probably look around a little more, i dont want to sound offensive but the univerise is actually accelerating in its expansion and one theory is that eventually everything will be too far apart to maintain heat, sort of a universal ice age.
Hmmnn...I think you're referring to the Heat Death of the Universe. This means that the universe would expand to the point of total entropy and everything would be close to absolute zero (0 K, or -273 degrees C)
Whatif the universe is going to reach a point where it stops expanding.... contracts.... again to an infantesimaly slmal size before eplxoding once more?
but that the clever bit it a paradox if it never happened then it would hapen sooner or later and sooner or later mean now so it doesnt matter the big bang will always be at the begining i mean before big bang there wasn't time that mean there was nothing i would say like a void
Thanks for the comment! I think it is easier to get viewers if you speak on screen, than if you just have images and music. People relate to you better when you have a voice. Maybe I should get a mic!
