Scientists have turned up rare evidence that space-time is smooth as Einstein predicted, while pushing closer to a complete theory of gravity. From NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope.

  • @BDukich Why not?

  • 2:49, omg why they try to make super wifi if i already got wifi? DOH!!!!!

  • he's so awkward

  • I dont know if I trust the Irish to define the universe..

  • @CertifiedBad4ss Well, that's why they have a space telescope, so they don't even need much redundant compensation protocols, if any at all to account for atmospheric distortion. They probably didn't touch on it in the video because most people don't think scientifically, & wouldn't have even considered it.

  • @ScienceofWinning It's very likely they did, especially if a dumbass like me could spot it. My original question was if the photon couldn't have been slowed down like they do on Earth, because they never said anything about it in the video.

  • @CertifiedBad4ss Actually, I'm doing a year long senior project on the behavior of neutrinos & have been privileged to study at collages around my area with many professors and other students of physics, as well as being the top of my class in AP senior physics at my high school. &, in fact, all standalone particles (ESPECIALLY bosons) behave like waves, which is why the Heisenburg uncertainty principle says what it says, & the point is, don't you think FERMI would have checked for the mundane?

  • @ScienceofWinning Particles act like particles in quantum mechanics. Photons on the other hand acts both as waves and particles. And when I looked up the speed of light in Earths atmosphere (cant remember that shit from when I was in high school) it was around 90000m/s less than in space, not 1m/s less.

    Also according to your channel you have been studying particle physics and neutrinos since you were 17, youtube science shows =/= studying bro.

  • @CertifiedBad4ss No, it's a very basic thing that all physicists have committed to memory. Electromagnetism matters because light (photons) is an electromagnetic wave, which is also common knowledge among scientists, particles act like waves in quantum mechanics. A net measurement of ALL photons traveling through Earth's atmosphere & gravitational influence reveals that ON AVERAGE they travel about 1m/s slower @ sea level. That's net, 99% of individual photons aren't affected. Connect the dots.

  • We know that the hypothesis for the God-Quantum Theory is within reach, this just shows how close we are getting to it. To think that Photons can travel faster than the speed of light is mind boggling.
