Elegant Universe - Welcome to the 11th Dimension - Part Six

[truthiseverall]

Lets oxygenize the ocean while we harvest from it with the teeter tooter of a ship. We could heal the black airless hole within the body of it, without killing fish ! Plastic is durable in the seas and oceans too, I hear !

[johnnymits]

"I told ya to never call during the Simpsons!!" LMFAO I cried!!

[sargksf]

black holes could be gravitational vents to another universe.

[fromthestars36]

Wake up and look at what is going on around you peeps

[I0wn3ey0u]

The big bang theory is nothing but a cheap unfunny comedy sitcom.

[sbergman27]

Your "possibilities that nobody would consider" are simply obvious enough that few care to dwell on them. Given the numbers, the existence of "stupid" life, like amoebas, is pretty much a certainty. Certainly we've spent 99.9% of our existence as hunter gatherers without radio. But alien hunter-gatherer tribes are uninteresting because communication would not be possible. Re:SETI, only about 700 stars out of 200 billion in the galaxy have been very incompletely searched. That's 0.00000035%.

[nusaik]

As Toby Turner would say: INTRO of NOTHINGNESS then BANGNESS then SOMETHINGNESS.

[shitefromaheight]

I chuckled at the phone call with the alien. I was consequently embarrassed.

[Schaffanj]

that guy is in bread!!!

[kam1ck]

Kill me someone! Damn it. What is between these 2 colliding branes?

[thijss9]

I have problems accepting there are parallel universes, because if there were an infinite number of parallel universes there would allso be a HUGE number of life forms that would be intelligent enough to make contact with us. In other words, they should have already contacted us.... seems only logic

[yinyangcali]

@thijss9 why is it that almost everyone would assume that, IF they do exist somehow, extraterrestrial life forms would be more intelligent than we are? i mean, oh c'mon, how many living things are there on this planet? how many of them can go as far as we have?

[sbergman27]

@yinyangcali Don't think "more intelligent". Think "more advanced". Our ape brains have been about the same for 100,000 yrs or so. We spent 90,000 of those yrs just getting to the point that we had primitive agriculture. 2000 yrs ago we had Roman technology. 700 yrs ago, the Renaissance began. During the last hundred years, we've developed Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. What if a civilization were only 1% more advanced than us? They'd be 10 centuries ahead. We are but toddlers.

[yinyangcali]

@sbergman27 i'm not dismissing the idea that they COULD be more "advanced." i am merely comparing the odds of a civilization to recur somewhere else to the ratio of homo sapiens sapiens to the total number of species on this planet. what are the odds of life forms, let alone intelligent ones, to exist somewhere else? SETI hasn't even gotten that far to confirm the existence of life forms in some other planet.

[sbergman27]

@yinyangcali If they exist and have radio, they would almost *certainly* be far more advanced. We've spent 99.9% of our species existence without radio transmitters. The only scenario in which other civilizations would not be more expected to be more advanced is the one in which *always* and *without fail* the civilizations destroy themselves at about the same level of development which we have reached today.

[yinyangcali]

@sbergman27 so? where are they? why don't we think about the possibilities that nobody would consider? couldn't they have simply been so self-absorbed to care that there could be creatures somewhere else in this universe? can you be so sure that they positively HAVE technology? are their thinking capabilities like that of people, or apes, or dogs, or chameleons, or insects, or amoeba, or viruses, or plants? just what do you know about biodiversity, let alone probability?

[rubenurrutia62]

so what would the gravity machine feel like in the other universe just a place where everything is heavy would anybody over there pick up on that ?

[mombassaa]

@shishimore that is theoretically true, but what they wer saying is if we can find and use gravatons, we could use them to communicate with other dimensions, as they can escape our dimension and travel to others. theoretically

[drahunter213]

@mombassaa indeed theoretically...but we'll see in about 10 to 15 years when that machine is done =)

[drahunter213]

@shishimore =P

[drahunter213]

i dont wanna die from a big bang :( it has to start somewhere in are universe depends on where the branes collide it sounds like

[protoroc]

This is beyond my feeble education, clashing membranes might account for the energy of the big bang but where does the matter come from?

[InsaneGoonRules]

Quack Quack Quack.

[yummypieProductions]

O_O It won't let me play the video after 1:15

[MackenzieSutherland]

Hopefully after the next big bang there is no religion. So people can figure this stuff out faster.

[asonewegrow]

"Dogmatic", lol, interesting choice. Consider that the only difference between fact and opinion is the amount of people who believe or Know.

[asonewegrow]

Everything that has ever or could ever exist, already does. Time is a illusion. Keep Shinning.

[mafurock33]

that is possible, but i would be careful not to get too dogmatic about it

[BeakyRed]

heres my theory. time is never ending and our universe was just there. but time didnt have to be created because as i said, it was just there

[Xzilalnx2]

Problem, with what they have said. They suggested that the big bang could not have started from nothing. Also they suggested that the colliding membranes may have triggered the big bang. So if the big bang problem is that there may have been nothing to exist before it. Well if there is nothing, than how can their be a membrane (i.e. our universe) to collide with the other membrane.

[dooshtoomun]

@Xzilalnx2 are you saying that the big bang is kind of like the birth of the third dimension?

[Xzilalnx2]

@dooshtoomun membrane and terms like that or used as visualization tools. This whole 5+ dimension thing is kind of mind boggling. I was pointing out that they suggested colliding membranes ( which are something ) caused the BIG BANG, yet their problem is that there is NOTHING before the big bang. these two idea DISAGREE.

I don't know that a dimension(like the 3rd) can exist any more than an inch, or a second. It is a comprehensive framework for which we can quantify or understand things.

[Xzilalnx2]

@Xzilalnx2 in otherwords, maybe the 3rd dimension ( as a unit framework ) didn't exist until someone thought of it as an idea.

[SpacedTime]

M-Theory can for once give some scientific validation to the Mayan prophecy of the life cycles.

Vibrating strings and membranes no matter the size -either on the quantum or Universal scale- suggest frequency, or pattern.

If a collision of Membranes created the Universe in these dimensions, start the big hot expansion again.

Maybe next time we take different atributes and forces form the other dimensions. ie;stronger gravity, weaker electromagnetism.

Just my initial thoughts after that.

agree?

[whaththeeee]

WHO KNOWS ???? WHO KNOWS ????

[deepakchina]

These scientists are writing poems and making people fool. No body knows no body knows the truth. It is intellectual property of GOD.

[deepakchina]

It is not M-theory which is TOE. TOE is OM Theory by Vedic scriptures.
