York Dobyns on Wormholes, Quantum Mechanics, and the Future

[mrdrumsauce]

awesome post! this guy kicks ass, I can't imagine a more interesting career path

[mssrus]

It IS you! Henry Clay High had many ubernerds in the 70s, but I knew you'd seek farther than most. Fantastic observations/conclusions!

Martha Hamilton, class of 1977.

[kokopelli314]

Engineering Anomalies Lab

Thats gotta be the best physics career ever!

[longfootbuddy]

this guy talks like a robot

[ijorge4me]

through the warmhole whit morgan freeman was talking about this on the sci channel

[youtrade207]

Once we figure out how to travel FASTER than the speed of light, then we will be able to time travel.

[hejsan119]

@youtrade207 witch is the death of the human race... or probably the most of the ppl that live today.. if you change history, you might not live today.

[TheFamousDeaths]

@hejsan119 "WITCH is the death?"

dumb ass

[marvincontendo]

his voice sounds robotic

[freeweed]

um, ahhh.

he says that a lot for a smart guy.

[beardydave]

Being smart doesn't imply excellent public speaking.  This is a hard subject so in order to explain it to the layman requires lots of rethinking. Hence the 'um's and 'ah's.

[RodCornholio]

Exactly. When I try to explain or talk to people, often my mind INSTANTLY comes up with several "branches" of logic, phrases, words etc. then I'm forced to spend time inwardly debating amongst myself which to chose from...hence my odd manner of speaking.

Putting complicated evidence and concepts into soundbites is not easy because it conflicts with a scientists' ethics for thoroughness and precision.

[69erthx1138]

Yes, it can be difficult to discuss matters of technical significance to a wide audience. I've found that it's not just a matter of defining terms or being selective about certain words, but you must keep people interested and motivated in what you are saying (particularly a room full of sleep deprived students).

[RodCornholio]

@69erthx1138 Keeping them interested and motivated when they would rather be doing something else and or those already interested -- keeping them entranced -- is what separates the good teachers from the great ones.

[RodCornholio]

@69erthx1138 That's what separates the good teachers from the great ones.

[69erthx1138]

Touche

[RodneyKawecki]

And if not ...is it appropreiate to relie on that gata as a defined proverty for the lesser perdicted...as in relativity?

[RodneyKawecki]

Physicsist york Dobyns...as a theorectrical physicist do you think that the standard mass equations of relativity compared to those like quantum dark matter gravity that were not mathematically measured in 1903..but were speculative at the time by einstein meaning only that he perdicts this...that using the basic math of relativity to describe the lesser and perdicted analogies ..is enough and appropriate?

[RodneyKawecki]

Are wormholes artifical or natural? According to Einstein they are natural. Like cosmic tunnels

[paulcmuir]

Have look at the rock art video  ~ "The Alpha" then "The Omega" from my videos, they certainly are natural observed in the bronze age and IMO due to be seen again

[thermaheat123]

nothing cosmic could be artificial artificial means something fake made by humans

[beardydave]

No. Artificial is something not made by nature. Be it by Humans, monkeys or aliens or whatever. Anything cosmic could be artificial.

[RodneyKawecki]

It is the fact that space is empty that allows virtual particles and such to alluminate. If not empty they would attach to the more then equal transcessionate. What makes gravitation is expalined in my new video...new earth gravitation..

[RodneyKawecki]

Dobyns, Empty space according to the standard theory all happen at once. Quanta Physics Study suggest DM empty space is infinite and matter planetary body matter is finite and are separate entities. Thereby it is dark matter that is infinite and the material UNIVERSE is finite. Universes are formed in it. Empty space is the resting birth area of all matter in it. My work suggest the rework of relativity.

[RodneyKawecki]

What I dont understand is about Alterative theory ---is ---space is empty (interstellar) but Alcubierre warp drive - insist that a neg, bubble can be created by having two poisitive plates in space --but there exist no positive energy in space. Its empty. One hydrogen atom per centimeter. So how's Alcubierre a accepted theory??

[jk21chicago]

have you ever heard of dark matter? and how do we know there is no positive energy? we no very little about almost everything outside of our earth and still know only the things we need to know to survive.

[thermaheat123]

i wish we could some how gather dark energy so it can be used to create a explosion bigger then Hiroshima

[TiagoTiagoT]

isn't there already many bombs stronger than the one used on Hiroshima?

[scringer12]

Why?

[thermaheat123]

to destroy astriods that are gonna collide with earth or use it to destroy enemy millitaries

[vrshowdown]

mass destruction should not be used in military combat in any form.

[bboysaolee]

yeah, that is crazy man. if it would been used in military we would destroy ourselves in few minutes.

[WhistlersBrother]

Actually "empty" space, even in a complete vacuum, is not truly empty. The fabric of physical space is constantly bubbling forth with subatomic particles spontaneously "creating themselves" out of nothingness and then being destroyed again a moment later. An empty vacuum is not a static place with nothing in it; it's actually crackling with the activity of these "virtual particles" coming into existence and then disappearing again. Strange but true. This may have something to do with it.

[spartan7403]

it's an accepted theory because the equations describing the warped space of his theory doesn't violate general relativaty. Space is actually filled with particles constantley popping in and of space. If you put the two metal plates together, they surpress the particles and create negative energy. Look up the casimir effect which is a proven effect out of the consequence of that.

[741362]

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger ... is as good as dead: his eyes are closed." A. Einstein  Dr. York Dobyns, I am so grateful to have met you, and to have once been a guest at the laboratory. I hope your worthy research is still receiving the support that it should.

Best wishes.

[GinoTheSinner]

thats the best quote i've ever heard. from one of my idols on top of that. thanks for filling out man

[bandroom59]

i was wondering, what about before man, animals must have been the conscious observers yes.

[AlmightyFRACTA]

awesome video. i didn't get any answers. only more questions.

[spartan7403]

if you try to look on the internet, you'll only get more questions. try to ask other people about this info, you'll get clearer answers. I know physics somewhat so if you have any questions , click on my channel and ask me and i may be able to help you

[madtiger111]

I like your voice. You should be on one of those shows on cable.

[RodCornholio]

Great video. Thanks!

[MajorUtah]

yes "nyland1959" ,but in special relativity _1 in 10,000_ is both entirely conclusive and entirely inconclusive... a "multifarious-definite" per say,

even where granted preposterous..

so, a conclusion deemed conclusive/inconclusive is only relative to ones superposition.. as they say.. *XD

[dannykanoista]

Can someone please indicate me the results of the experiments? And since you're at it maybe you could also tell where are the calculations. Thanks.

[dannykanoista]

I would really like to see a computer display the results of a calculation without even having computing it... And since I'm wishing this in this moment I would also like to know how did this affected my... This is a funny subject...

[crazy650c]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[pennhatch]

Physicists at Scotland's University of St. Andrews have claimed to have recently created a wormhole.

[pbonney]

Really, that's would be unbelievable. . . Where can you find the info on this. I would love to check this out.

[truths33k9r]

Thank You. I received my answer!

[truths33k9r]

When a person suffers a physical impact at the nanite level, is there a current form of portable technology to detect and or record the residual impact debris? I will appreciate your answer.

[Nyland1959]

1 in 10,000 is hardly conclusive!!

[SDMagicMan]

pretty cool

[Tzimisceblood]

fascinating

[Zeldovich]

Several parts in 10,000? Whatever.

[dsfgdsfg324]

Sounded pretty weird to me.

[automaticAEV]

1 part in 10,000 playing slots here. just because something can exist dosnt mean it must exist. why belive you can go into the past and kill your grandpa. i mean humans can not survive much. you cant even leave the atmosphere wouldnt a human die if he tried to travel in time?

[spacecowboynj]

A degree is a piece of paper that said you did this and that. Talent and ambition rely on the person, not the paper. I work in IT, have no degree, yet I've blazed past many who do. I've encountered people on helpdesks working for nothing who had advanced degrees in physics.

Deeds, not words on paper.

[andysterdam]

Seems like you have a bad case of "degree envy." You equate success with fitting into a corporate hierarchy. Having an advanced degree is itself a worthwhile end, as you would know if you had one. But explaining that to you would like telling a swine that a pearl is more valuable than a smooth pebble.

[spacecowboynj]

Again, degrees don't prevent individuals from complete mediocrity. You have Ph.D academicians like this fellow at Princeton being paid god knows what to research ESP (guffaw!) and others who make breakthroughs in nanotech or high powered particle acceleration (things that count).

[andysterdam]

I agree about the mediocrity comment, but has it occurred to you that this Princeton guy is involved in an entirely new experimental field that may revolutionize our understanding of subatomic particles, and by extension of our origins, reality, etc? I don't think you can justly call his research ESP. It's only the weirdness of quantum theory that makes it sound esoteric.

[spacecowboynj]

The difference between you and I on this subject is that I believe quantum mechanics has been used to peddle snake oil for years. Anyone can imagine anything and theorize it through quantum mechanics. It's imagination masturbation, but experiment, as Feynman says, shows squat.

[automaticAEV]

rofl so then your cell phone is snake oil? your computer?

[spacecowboynj]

I didn't say quantum M is snake oil, I said a lot of absurd theories supposedly based on it are. Feynman, one of the great believers in it, said as much about theories not verified by experiment (READ: String theory).

[automaticAEV]

umm feyman had one of the craziest theorys.

[spacecowboynj]

Feynman always verified through experiment. He referred to theoretical and mathematical masturbation as "hocus pocus" and a "shell game." And quantum electrodynamics is hardly "crazy."

[jonnylazer]

are you saying you understand string theory ?....as your great friend Richard Feynman said "if you think you understand quantum theory ...you dont understand quantum theory."

[macchesney]

im sorry, this is too boring to watch. Im very interested in the topic, but his voice is monotonous and uninteresting.

[Zeldovich]

This guy is borrrrrrrrrrring.

[Buzzlybonk]

I dont find it the cause at all, I can grasp it all and find it enjoyble

[Zeldovich]

Are you a physicist, mathematician, or engineer that specializes in this area of research?

[psientist]

Dr. Dobyns is a physicist with Princeton University

[royalspeciment]

Im not a physicist but my BIG hobby is quantum mechanics!

The part when dr.Dobyns explanes Time Paradox was amazing.

Q. for dr.Dobyns:

Do you like string theory?

TnX for posting!

And TnX to the person who interviewed dr.Dobyns - he was asking the right questions!

[richardl562]

the subject is interesting i can tell he is a very boring professor.

[DL6HACK]

Personally I think what he is talkig about is very interesting. To me talk like this invokes the power of though. To think is great, and we need to do more of it.

[spacecowboynj]

So, Art Bell's red-headed stepchild is on the payroll at Princeton. For years no less. I'm sorry, but this is what happens at the liberal Ivies.

None of this is born out by an experiment worth a damn. You want to smack your head when he talks of the atrocious probability of this junk science. And I thought string theory was corny.

[munnecke]

He is presenting some controversial ideas... It would be good to see folks talk about the ideas - and experiments to prove or disprove them, rather than personalities.

By the way, here is another interview I posted of astronomer David Jewitt, who is co-discoverer of the Kuiper Belt Objects Youtube video B1W4NTmI5Bk I am tagging my other science videos with "TomScience" in case you want to follow them all.

[VonHelton]

watch?v=ZRL7vJ0wac4

[LIVERLADD]

ok a little to much above my head this is unfortunatly because the subject truly excites me.

[boxa888]

check out mind over matter on googgle video you will be even more excited its really cool!!

[LIVERLADD]

ok thx m8:)

[boxa888]

philadelphia experiment is another example go check it out. the ship now resides in greece and still has the wireing in the hull !!!!

[NilsDeDuitser]

In the past poaple wo claimed that there are more dimensions wer also called crack-pots but look at them now.

[yumeN0dengon]

Great interview, thanks for upload :)

[boxa888]

look up midn over matter on google videos u will see this stuff in action .

[popisfizzy]

Look up mind over matter on Google videos and you will see elaborate fakes.

[boxa888]

why are they fake ive personally talked to these people . they studied this and one of the people has proven the theory of global conscience among the people of the world. his proof is impressive considering the events taht have shown impacts on the non randomness in computers when they should be random.. im just putting up facts . look at that frech guys set up the random robot responds to the person sleeping and moves away . now thats really good proof

[popisfizzy]

When I hear mind over matter, I think telekenesis and the like. Are we thinking of two different things, by chance?

[IMBUED]

why not, they could both exist, science finds things not create, so anything is possible :)

telekenesis, shows up in rare ocasions, but when you think about it, thats evolution, small traces in evolution in the past would be more seen way later, correct?

[logs86]

Free will 0, no control of decisions 1, thank you very much, that has been on my mind for a long time, when I finish my current degree I want to change to Physics..Illusions are terrible, free will is one.

[bodwisa]

His IQ was said to be 160.

[handelFAN]

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

[IMBUED]

knowedge expands your imagination.

[DOGALR]

We have devolevoped the worm hole here in the futuere , we are sending info now , you need to keep on trying to receive this info. thank you Don Ho 2060

[chinkfacesam]

this dude is a smarty pants

[b9keith]

Doesn't quantum physics prove the existance of the collective consciousness and the 100th monkey phenomenon? Could this be the key to the answer of the "big picture" that we all have been seeking?

[ronblue2]

A quantum computer that uses classical confirmation can be built using string transistor memories, electostatic charge trap, and a slow Paul radio frequency trap. Quantum computations would be global but locally expressed only during specific time.

[randompast]

I was just thinking about The Elegant Universe and how strings may cover up tears in the fabric of space time. Perhaps we could somehow realize ourselves on a quantum level which could lead to time travel without the traditional sense of wormhole. A hole in reality seems bazaar, but how about an N number of holes in reality which somehow through superposition do something extraordinary. "We all agree that your theory is crazy, but is it crazy enough?" -Bohr

[avatarparadigms]

Slowly but steadily, physicists are discovering as valid those concepts that until recently they mordantly castigated: mysticism, teleology - namely: spirituality. As a matter of fact, this "retrocausation" is nothing less than a philosopher's teleology dissimulated beneath the garb of an empiricist's laboratory apron.

They should read some Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and - more recently - M.A.Carrano

[crieswhicharewings]

Nevermind that this is all backed-up by mathematics. It may be experimental mathematics, but it's more of a foundation than pure theology and mysticism has.

[redeyesurfman]

Do you think there is a significant chance that instead of retrocausation, it may more be the exact opposite? That the information the machine recieves may cause some unknown, subconscious sense to make the operator follow the commands from the machine...?

I personally do not believe worm holes will enable true time travel. I believe that in the ends of wormholes time may go faster and slower, but never stop or go backwards (which would be times traveling).

[munnecke]

It seems to me that it is very appropriate for scientists to be exploring concepts that are "very remotely viable" as part of the scientific discovery process. I think that there are is a hugely significant array of issues surrounding our understanding of time and space about which we know very little. (See Paul Davies' "About Time" or Stephen Hawking's "Universe in a Nutshell", or Brian Greene's "Elegant Universe.")

[johnsmdm]

Hito needs to  stop degrading this fine gentlemen..his ideas are thought provoking and could lead to major discoveries..

[munnecke]

I appreciate the attention this video is generating, but I am deleting uncivil comments.

I took this video at a symposium sponsored by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, his paper is available in "Frontiers of Time - Retrocausation and Theory". Kip Thorne is a well-respected CalTech Physicist who has studied the implications of Einstein's theories with respect to wormholes - see his book, "Black Holes and Time Warps: Einstein's Outrageous Legacy" with Steven Hawking.

[chemkook]

For better or worse, our present thoughts (based upon past experiences) affect the future. Often, feelings determine the mood of our thoughts. Could our feelings determine future events? Are decisions based on feelings? Can drugs really alter our feelings? What happens to our thoughts when we sleep? Should we develope "thought physics"? Could quantum mechanics have a role wrt how we store our thoughts? Do we pull our memories out of wormholes? It's fun to think of it that way for me.

[Hitokiriilh]

Wow. PEAR really sounds like NIAC (Nasa's institute of advanced concepts). NIAC is basically NASA's fiction (very few things are even remotely viable) and I get the feeling PEAR is along those same lines. Also, Thorne's 3rd authorship suggests to me that he was on the paper cuz he's the man, not because he contributed anything. That happens frequently: people do stuff, and the last two authors did nothing but "supervised" the research.

[Hitokiriilh]

Also, he claims to be a physicist at Princeton, but he's listed as an electrical engineering there. It's a joke among physicists that the crack-pot "physicists" are ordinarily retired engineers. I get the feeling this guy is one of 'em.

[Hitokiriilh]

Disproven the twin paradox? You don't disprove a paradox, you discover a solution to it. What the hell are you talking about? And it's easy to show via general relativity (or just space-time diagrams) that the accelerated observer ages less.

Also, this is crap. Future affecting the past leads to ridiculous paradoxes. For instance, if you can affect the past you could arrange for yourself to be killed in the past...but then you wouldn't be around arrange, post-mortum, your own death.

[beboplayer]

Are you seriou? Can you provide more detail about you proof?

[Zolatos]

I have disproven the twin paradox of special relativity I wonder what they will say when its propily published.
