ITS HERE! Cosmos with Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson: A Space Time Odyssey Series

[bnm8907]

THOSE ARE INTERESTING QUESTIONS, BUT MY EXPERTISE IS IN PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING, BROTHER!

lol i got you. It was just that you quote made it seem like this was common knowledge so I thought I'd ask

THE THING ABOUT THE BIG BANG IS THAT WE CAN TELL, BY LOOKING AT THE UNIVERSE, THAT IT HAPPENED ROUGHLY 13.8 BILLION YEARS AGO, BROTHER! BUT BECAUSE OF THE NATURE OF THE SINGULARITY INVOLVED, IT MIGHT BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO FIGURE OUT HOW IT STARTED, DUDE!

Chronology of the universe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

All ideas concerning the very early universe (cosmogony) are speculative. No accelerator experiments have yet probed energies of sufficient magnitude to provide any experimental insight into the behavior of matter at the energy levels that prevailed during this period. Proposed scenarios differ radically. Some examples are the Hartle–Hawking initial state, string landscape, brane inflation, string gas cosmology, and the ekpyrotic universe. Some of these are mutually compatible, while others are not.

SO I WOULD SAY IT IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE THAT THE BIG BANG HAPPENED, BUT NO ONE HAS KNOWLEDGE OF EXACTLY HOW OR WHY IT HAPPENED, MEAN GENE!

The part about the Jupiter and Venus and Ice Ages blew my mind. I had no idea that was something we knew

Episode was simply amazing. Neil Tyson was in rare form man. You could just feel the excitement he had in telling this story. The best part for me is that all the experiments shown were exactly how they were done. I'm looking forward to watching this episode again.

That pretty much sums up the human race. My god, the last episode blew my fukking head wide open. Tyson is correct. We don't live long enough to see how the earth is in a constant rate of motion and change. We live on a thin layer of rock above a working systems of gears like a clock. Once in a while, the gears clash and we get earthquakes. The animation of the continents changing, showing that the Earth itself is a living system, was awe spiring. It made me appreciate this planet we take for granted. It's a living being on to itself. It lives and breathes and hurts and heals like us. Just beautiful shyt. Just wow man. Just fukking wow......


Y'all saw the part where the formation of Central America changed the currents, which changed the global climate which made Africa colder and drier which forced those damn dirty apes to evolve into humans?

Or the solar tug of war between the gravities of Venus and Jupiter determines the cycles of our ice ages?


We are all connected.

...and you still believe in god?


We've been trying to tell you, fam...

Figure of speech sir. Too bad 3 more weeks of this unfiltered piff...

Existence is deterministic. The only argument is how much so. Do we even really have choices or do we operate under the illusion that we have free will?

The Earth is a one big ass magnet.


Faraday is the ultimate rags to riches(without really getting rich) story.

What I gather from all this is that we are because of a system of chance, circumstance and consequence. The universe seems to have a system of checks and balances that govern but throws in a little chaos and random to spice things up. But everything can be broken down to cause and effect. What we may think is a random occurrence becomes the cause of something. It's just mind boggling that the effects of the planets and the effects of the earths ever changing Eco system affects us

I'm more inclined to believe there is not such thing as random. Random might be a word to describe limitation of knowledge. But I don't think there is anything such as fate either.

What slays me is the ignorance of these crackas. Every story always involves someone making ground breaking discovery and the scientific community shutting it down then 50-100 years later, oh yea you're right. Our bad. But you're dead and slightly disgraced now. Let's just name a distant star or a telescope after you. You cool though right? Like Wagner, the guy who discovered the tectonic plates and coined the name Pangea, kraut dies in the snow after being mocked. Years after they find him, frozen to death and buried, Marie Tharp had to give his theory some credit. Disgraceful.
