Dr. Michio Kaku: SCI FI or SCI FACT Lecture PART 4

[kiapowmia]

To be honest, I think that Dr. Kaku May be wrong on the aliens not visiting Earth. For Example, any galactic civilization that may be present in our galaxy. Would know that there is intelligent life on Earth; Level of intelligence to be determined. But any civilization like that would, no doubt have some sort of primitive species protection program, like in Star Trek, the prime directive to be exact. Until we the human race have sorted out all our differences and realize we aren't alone,

[pivotcrave]

wait... why would the mars rover know what a giraffe and a spoon looks like. its on mars

[deanmullen10]

aliens wouldn't give us there technology because we'd probably use their weaponry in war and end up destroying ourselves, were probably not mature and civilized enough to be trusted with such technology wait to about the 24th century then they'll arrive. the UFO's could be just to give clues there here but not proof. UFO's come so there existence wont be a complete shock, just a possible theory.

[photoxloan]

for me, I think MK is an alien sent by their leaders to come to this planet to educate us.

[PMRNYM]

@photoxloan That would be something :p

[The2012beliver]

Dr. Michio Kaku has good humor

[iNfx1]

Thanks for the upload

[Rayden440]

The queen must be pissed when she saw a math book coming in the mail lol.

[dormantreign]

God love that guy :) Didn't know he could tell good jokes :P

[Yugiohtrader5]

anything that is possible must be possible

[IamDuhmb]

@Yugiohtrader5

Anything that is impossible remains that way because we think it is

[shkotay]

@Yugiohtrader5 UNPOSSIBLE :P Nah just kidding :D What's the saying in physics? "Anything not denied by the laws of physics is mandatory"? They are finding out daily that more and more things considered fantastically impossible are permitted by the laws of physics. So.......?

[WhackaJacka]

Time travel happens every day, you just have to be more attentive to it. =)

[codemonkeyslikeme]

@WhackaJacka i'm replying to u from the year 2011....uh...hi...

[NiqueJB]

Awesome!!!!

[WillardE4]

the next time my teacher asks me a question that i can't answer, i'll point at the smartest kid in my class and say "this question is so elementry that even this dumbass can answer it"

[dudemanyo147]

lol'd

aliens watching bevis and butthead

[Ko252]

Wow, my view on time travel mirror his. I am quite fortunate.

[allankbelo]

Not the trend for future predictions, but for Science itself, that´s why science is so tricky. You can hardly find a final answer to anything, but instead you´ll have to go with a good theory until a better one shows up.

[BillTheWaterDrinker]

This guy is a great communicator. Most of his predictions are probably wrong though. That seems to be the trend for future predictions.

[BandytaCzasu]

10:50 HAHAHA this guy is great!

[TheUFOeffect]

epic ending joke

[TonyDent84]

This guy is awesome...love watching him on documentaries, and now his own tv show. Thanks for posting.

[frosticle123]

we need more open minded scientists like Mr. kaku

[guitarman1568]

Wow, I just watched all four parts of this lecture while I should have been looking over notes for semester exams...totally worth it.

[MokuCat]

I feel that all of science is building up to some great point where we learn everything there is to know in the Universe, then we will move off to study the Multi-verse where we will inevitably find something bigger. Our humanity will break into something far more complex. And all of this will happen if nothing catastrophic happens and kills use all before we discover how to prevent our death.

[xzKyouzx]

I surely hope we don't find everything, for if we do life wouldn't be interesting at all.

[shatterhandeve]

@xzKyouzx you dont know what you are talking about . say we know everything ( as a civilization ) , you as a person will know a tiny fraction of it because it is so masive ( the knowledge ) that for you is like inexistent . but knowing everything will make our life more complex , more enticing . cant wait

[tksmkwd2]

@xzKyouzx

personally, i disagree with you, i think if and when we do know everything about our universe or theoretically about the multiverse, then i think we would find much more wonder and interest in it

[Soothfish]

@tksmkwd2 You are wrong. We know more about the universe than ever before and people are more banal than ever before.

[dhom100]

yeah he talked about us reaching type 1 civilization in 100 years if we can overcome our obstacles like prejudices, racism, terrorist, weapons of mass destructions, dangers from space. if we survive into type 1, we can strive toward type 2, then 3 at which point we would be invincible and can travel to other star systems and galaxies, like movie Star wars.

[john5246]

Those are my thoughts exactly, I always say...and it's not from anything I've heard him or anyone say, but I always say that we could travel through time if we don't all kill each other first.

[VERSA86]

Eh, science is but our mental tool to understand the universe at our current state of civilization only. One day it'll eventually be replaced by an even more complicated in-depth practice that implies the use of other possible dimensional properties and energies to be understood and used for our own purposes.

P.S. just like religion is slowly, but surely, will be replaced by the ideas of science haha

[helltrackrider]

...Carmen Electra's boobs are in a parallel universe.

[AlexIsonSanders]

Haha

[brandtaylor93]

towards the end with the radio waves I heard that most if not all of our radio signals for radio and television dissipate quite quickly.

[mastermoviewatcher]

are the whirlpools in the river of time "black holes?"

[Onirayushizobura]

No, they would be wormholes.

[Xavi02301]

i just love this

[AhalleyL]

can anyone writte down what the professor says between 10:25-10.54?.. i can't understand it very well! thanks alot =)

[pacific5crush]

10:25-10:54

....expanding at the speed of light containing the finest of our cultural archives. The noblest achievements of the human creative spirit like I love Lucy leave it to beaver and now joined by the immortal classics: beavis and butthead part two and dumb and dumber part two. And if there is a star within 50 lightyears of the earth they will pick up our cultural transmissions and theyll be convinced there is no intelligent life on the Earth.

[whotookmynickkokokai]

it is the tv radiowave.. alien pick up funny show from earth...

[micrasys]

So this means that it's possible our planet Earth, our solor system, our milky way galaxy, and all the galaxies we can see are all part of baby Universe created by scientists in a lab who are part of a third level Civiliation? So those scientists are the ones we call god lol.

[lungfung37]

isnt the notion of "god" just the idea of a creator?...the answer is yes, but you have to understand this is just theory of what existence is and where we came from...

but it doesnt answer the biggest question of all...what created all of that in the first place? when you think about like that there is no answer...all we can do is understand what we can see and study but as you go deeper of what created what...there is no theory

[miwakoa]

And here I was thinking I'm the only one that thinks that deeply. :D

I hate to tie this into religion, but I just can't resist the temptation. Most religions teach people to just believe and love a creator, but that's it. You're not supposed to challenge it. If more people would think in a way that involved understanding the beginning of creation beyond just our universe, perhaps we could come up with a science devoted to finding the really important theories and answers to existence.

[FIGHTFANNERD3]

could be soo

[micrasys]

This implies that our planet Earth, could be part of a baby Universe created by a third level Civiliation. So our solor system, the milky way galaxy, everything in our Universe could be inside of lab with a team of scientists who are part of a 3rd level civiliation.

[NartSaga]

Deeep! :D

[sterance2]

Perhaps a "laboratory" in our sense would be incorrect.

Maybe it isn't exactly a physical team that observes us, but something beyond our comprehension. Sorry to bug you, but I like deep kine of stuff like this :)
