    Who is verifying the results? Why is there no discussions about the absurdity of detecting and isolating this phenomenon. When 100% of scientists are in agreement you know it is wrong.

    There's a glaring contradiction in Black Hole theory. Gravitons, being the force transmitter of gravity, must obey the speed of light "c". This means that they would never escape the interior of the black hole - and the black hole would exert no gravity! Also, any processes involving a black hole's interior would be time-unbounded. The very moment that the singularity ignited would never end - as well as any physical process. Angular momentum of the interior would have no meaning, and the particle jets would not be a result of any of this theory. The existence of fraud about this has got to be shown by the Scientists; and the public would love to hear that "it's OK to be wrong". Most people didn't catch that contradiction; but treat Einstein like singular character. LIGO, please speak up about this!

      Everything about this invention contradicts itself over and over the more you even Try to grasp what they even discovered. It seems like they are all patting each other on the back and not even scrutinizing the results. They also detected G waves that are light years long peak to peak. More insanity.

    How can black holes exist if there is a particle theory of gravity? The gravitons could not, themselves, exit the interior of the black hole. Thus, it would exert no gravitational force!

  • @ryanchicago6028
    @ryanchicago6028 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Black Holes can't be real, because the Gravitons would never escape the interior. How has this challenge been put by your community? Perhaps the field theory and the particle theory of black holes could be mutually exclusive?

    Possibly a good documentary, but the music was simply too terrible to bear. At the very, very beginning, the music seems utterly mismatched to the subject matter, but that’s over quick. Might just be some mandatory soundtrack to go with the producer credits (still awful though). But then: yay, Bowie! This might be alright! Except at 1:07 the music switches so, so poorly from a cover of “Major Tom” to… a different cover of “Major Tom”?! And not cleverly or with any kind of purpose or reason. I’m not a musician whatsoever and this was _grating_. Both covers seem great on their own, but oh man are they both absolutely mistreated here. But then that latest track fades as Kip Thorne starts speaking. Ok, cool, let the man speak- nope! NoW We’Re PlAyInG nEw, dIfFeReNt mUsIc (WiTh VoCaLS) OvEr HiM. And then we switch again as soon as the clip of dr Thorne ends. And here’s the thing, if this is the “director’s cut” then I’m sorry, but I’m out, because I no longer trust this director to do a good job of anything. I would at minimum expect a director to recognize when something is just bad and then rework it. Or at the very, _very_ least to not then put their name on it saying “yes, this is my vision come to life, and this is the first impression it should give.”

    @43:00 Rainer Weiss huh? It is kind of insane he had the temerity to think of an actual experiment of such extraordinary sensitivity yet that involved geographic distances and logging trucks and earthquakes. Was this era a different time for science? Before the neoliberal (needless) austerity budgets fully kicked in? I cannot help but mention some political economy issues every scientist should know. Congress closed down the SSC, but their excuse was the cost (and the irresponsible SSC administration) which was an invalid reason. Consider, (a) the administers could have been fired and the project kept on track, and (b) there is no monetary cost issue for a sovereign currency issuer like the US government. They do not get their own currency (aka tax creidts, aka scorepoints) from the "tax payer". The tax payer cannot pay a dime in tax until the government, or Its chartered banks, first issue the currency (by fiat or credit resp.). Nor do they "borrow" their own currency from bonds holders --- again the bonds holders cannot purchase a single bond until the government first issues the currency. No one can legally get USD from anywhere else or it'd be counterfeit. (Why do Tsy/FED sell bonds then? It is to maintain a non-zero interest rate, which serves as _basic income_ but only for people who already have money in proportion to how much money they already have. No other reason. It is pro-inflationary, directly, raising forward prices by at least the interest rate floor, and directly raising costs for firms and households who do not have large operating cash balances (so most firms and households).) When you understand this you are thankful the administrators of LIGO were prudent and diligent, since Congress could have at any time been the idiots shutting down this monumental achievement, all because they (Congress) thought they needed to get their own scorepoints off tax payers, when in fact they are the scorekeepers who create the scorepoints (aka. currency) by using a computer to mark-up bank accounts --- no tax payer or bond holder needed. Tax liabilities drive _demand_ for the otherwise worthless currency, the tax receipts are not supply for the monopoly issuer, they are a redemption (that's why it is called revenue, from the French "revenir" ~ "to return back".) Your shopkeeper or private business sales are not really literally revenue, they are income, but it _is_ a trade, in "return" for giving away some stuff, the buyer gives you some tax credits. This is a totally different relation to that of us and the government. The government does not need to "get" its own currency and does not "get" the currency from anywhere except by accounting entries, but it _needs us to need the currency,_ hence the imposed tax liabilities. For a government investor (not a household or firm), the only thing _materially_ preventing the SSC or LIGIO is available real resource constraints. Are there enough materials and engineers? If there are, then in time it can be built. The currency to pay for these resources is not the issue if you are the monopoly creator of the currency. If you pay the going market price for the resources there is zero inflationary pressure. If the government spends more than tax return, that becomes net private sector savings, which helps the economy. The *government net spending* (misleadingly called the "debt" --- since what exactly is a debt to you in your own currency units if you issue the currency by fiat?) *is the private sector surplus.* You want that to grow if you have a growing population. If the economy booms then so will tax receipts rise, automatically, this cools of the inflation (one of the automatic stabilisers), especially if there is tax bracket creep or progressive tax rates.

    So will a 20 stage pendulum gather every bit of space distortion. It tells me to launch 3 groups into interstellar space separated by 50 kilometers and made so stable unit to unit that a single atom spit from an ion chamber will change it's distance measurably with a very strong laser. Would need to be a molten salt reactor to produce enough power that far from the sun. Super massive cosmic rays would be the limiting factor.

    Just to make it clear, I am no scientist and have no real education pertaining to any scientific subject. However, possibly this is an absolutely dumb question, and I would assume it is. Has anyone ever thought to create a method of going backwards in time until reaching the event of the definitive end of time? Let me explain my question a little. The old saying of "All things must end", would imply that our universe also has a definitive end. However not knowing what, when where or how that end will occur, possibly like a two-sided cassette tape, could you rewind side one, to get to the end of side two? There by reaching the definitive end of the existence of our universe and being able to gather all the information of everything in between. I don't have a clue what that process would be or if even possible, it is just a thought that I had never asked. It was one I was embarrassed to ask when I was taking physics in High School, and I never continued that subject into my short time spent in college. Now that I am older and less concerned about asking stupid questions, I am asking with the hopes of maybe triggering those who's intelligence is far greater than mine. I am sure the thought has crossed someone's mind, but I have yet to see or read anything that follows that sort of process!
