Light and the electromagnetic spectrum is probably my favorite. You guys discussed the planck length but not really the impact it has on the forces and energy it applies to the universe. One of my personal(likely incorrect) ideas was that rather than geometry and curvature being responsible for gravity, it may actually be electromagnetic interactions and the latent energies within atoms and even down to leptons, quarks, etc. Since it's strong and weak nuclear forces(effectively electromagnetism) that holds things together at that level, why wouldn't that influence impact the greater universe even supposing the inverse square law significantly reduces the effect over distance. If the entire universe is saturated with these forces, it would make sense that small imbalances would causes attraction and even repulsion forces. Maybe you can do a video on something of that nature?
Perhaps make clear that most of theoretical physics is just that , theory , not fact and not backed by any empirical evidence, a good example is string theory it is no more likely than a fairytale, sorry
What about Donald Hoffman saying our perception of reality is not a direct representation of the objective world, but rather a simplified interface that has evolved to help us survive? And he thinks consciousness is not an emergent property of physical particles (like brains), but rather a fundamental aspect of reality itself.
We should be greatful that there are people out there like Neil Degrass Tyson and Brian Green who are not just scientist but are also public figures who spend a lot of their precious time to educate us on what is going on with their work.
That's cool and all, and I in general agree with you on that, but it doesn't change the fact that science has hit a major brick wall- there is no proven answer as to why we exist which is the most important question above all else.
@@tf4665 While I would say yes, science has never been able to figure out that answer, doesn't necessarily mean they've hit a brick wall. There's still tons of amazing things that science finds out all the time about our universe, our planet, and ourselves. "Why do we exist" will probably be the greatest question of all time, but if we just sit here and only ever wonder that, then we would never get anywhere. Be greatful that we do, and if we ever find out, then be greatful for that, but never stop questioning the rest of everything. We are a speck of a piece of a piece of sand in this universe. Stay looking up!!!
@tf4665 "Why" questions are rarely smart questions, unless an INTENDER has been clearly identified and undeniably proven to be the cause and the mechanics are understood, and what remains to be learned is the final goal that triggered the action.
I'm starting to realize that as Chuck gets smarter Neil talks on a higher level along with the guests and I can't listen in passing while multi-tasking anymore.
With these kind of conversations I can do nothing but stare and listen and put my mind into a zen like sponge state of realisation and logic. This can take several viewings.
I really appreciate Chucks responses when he finds something interesting or confusing. When I'm listening passively Chuck is my cue to rewind abit, slow playback speed back down, and start paying attention
@@--ART3MIS--It is extremely simple to understand these are one-dimensional string membranes that are destroyed by The Singularity of a black hole and once this happens they are in a state in between 0 and 1 dimensional this creates Dark Matter coming out of black holes and what is considered non baryonic matter. This is the counterforce to the expansion of the universe. We don't we do not live in a 3 + 1 System One of the most important things that I recently came to conclude is that I have came up with a system to prove that we live in an infinite Multiverse. I will state it here and now. So if we follow the logical progression of the spatial Dimensions infinite zero-dimensional existence can stack into any size one dimensional existence and infinite one-dimensional existence can stack into any size two-dimensional existence and infinite two-dimensional existence can stack into any size three-dimensional existence so if we follow this logical progression we can conclude that infinite three-dimensional existence can stack into any size four dimensional existence. This means if we don't live in a 3 + 1 System we should observe the relative state or shape of the universe as flat or compressed in a non evenly distributed matter and basically we should observe a stacked effect of three-dimensional existence which would make a relatively flat universe or at least a universe in a distribution matter that is non spherical and evenly distributed... so because of this we can conclude that we are not the fundamental highest spatial Dimension and that a fourth spatial Dimension must exist and if so then infinite three-dimensional Universal potentiality can stack into any size four dimensional existence so ultimately this proves a Multiverse. Just remember infinite three-dimensional Universal potentiality can stack into any size four dimensional existence... this means that because the observed state of the universe is flat or non evenly distributed in a spherical manner then this means there is extra dimensional influence compressing the state making it stack and if a fourth spatial Dimension exists then a infinite Multiverse must exist and the stack ability must exist therefore this observed phenomenon means that a fourth spatial Dimension must exist making a infinite three-dimensional Multiverse the standard Norm....
The best part of all of this is to watch Chuck. Basically, Neil and Brian are talking shop talk, and Chuck is along for the ride until Chuck has his epiphany. That is what I love the most. He got it. Then he says he feels included, rather than the 3rd wheel. Now Chuck is on board, and he is concentrating so hard. I love his funny quips and interpretations, but now that he is there and in the moment, it's just a beautiful thing to see him now a part of the team. I love Chuck, but it way more fun to see him celebrate after his breakthrough.
His struggle to understand the concept and then the epiphany he has once he finally does understand is what some of us regular folks at home feel like as well. So it's like we're celebrating together our growth in knowledge.
Whenever I feel the burden of stupidity around the world and am about to get into that depressed realm, I come to my podcasts, and #Startalk almost has never failed to not just pulling me out but elevating me way up there! This episode though was one of those extra ones, for Chuck once again was exactly showing my state of mind and excitement!!!🎉😂 Nei Tyson & Brian Greene each has the same effect on me when I watch or listen to them; now the two together and the back and forth explosive brillance of minds popping... 🎉 Chuck showed what happens to simple minds like mine when learning these amazing sciences from amazing teachers! ❤🎉🌐💫
He's a good physasits. Even better communicator. I LOVE listening to him. He is effortless with his language and makes it easier to understand with the language he chooses to use.
New Mandela effect - engines on planes are now no longer under wings but level with the wing tops they are also more forward They used to be mounted under the wings and the intakes not far off level with the wing tips....
This episode is legendary! My only regret is that Neil didn't record his lunch with Brian 😂 but I feel lucky to live in a time where I could peek through a conversation between two scientists and try to work my mind through it. Thank you to everyone behind Star Talk, you're the best. Abeer from Algeria.
I think without Chuck the dynamics would be less... awesome episode😊❤. I took hundred of years from newton to einstein. Maybe we need hundreds again for the next😅😊
Chuck is so critical to this show. He makes them slow down and explain when they need to, and also his reactions when he finally gets it (which is usually when I’m getting it too) perfectly encapsulate how I feel in those moments
Have to say, Brian Greene is my favorite presenter in the realm of nuclear and quantum physics. Not that their arms a lot of others who do well. There is just something great about Brian especially when he has a panel that he’s talking to.
Exactly! He's a proxy for the audience, so Neil can slow down and add context. Chuck's questions help me understand the connections between ideas more fully.
The www was born to link institutions so they could share and stimulate. This show is stimulating, and show cases three of our modern worlds greatest institutions, Sharing them right in our living rooms. The webs founders would be thrilled to know of your work. Chuck you are essential to this format. You represent us, the audience. We all know you could have taken your career in other directions, but honestly, you bring this production alive.
Guys, whoever runs this account for StarTalk? This is the best episode I’ve ever seen. And Brian’s great as always, but what really made this special was Neil really allowing Chuck to get in the mix and learn, explain very detailed things that Chuck proves he can keep up with. Going a little deeper works.
Brian is my favourite physicist. He has this ability to explain extraordinarily complex concepts in a way that makes them so clear and intuitive to follow. That said, this podcast just blew my mind. 🤯
@@kingnuthin4517 science put itself in a box. and is now trying to explain the box dosent exist. they invent things like dark matter and tell you what it is. but it's bulshit. the universe is not complicated. it's basic math.
@NotIdefix I feel this way too, it actually puts me off listening to Niels shows when i really want to stick around. This one was tolerable just about
Oh yea, it is so wonderful to watch someone getting so hyped about understanding something 😁 Last time that happened to me a couple years ago, I had an opposite reaction - I was sitting in silence for a few mintutes, just absorbing the fact that a strong nuclear force is the energy that is released during the explosion of a fission bomb. And you can measure that force... In a Helium atom, it is a bit over 20 Newtons. Between two protons... Two particles with completly negligible size compared to our size, produce a force of 20 Newtons between them. A bag of 2kg of potatoes. Between two protons. It took a while to absorb that thought. And make me truely understand why "strong" nuclear force is called this way. And then the amount of matter undergoing fission during the bomb explosion, suddenly made so much more sence. 😉 That's something you kind of knew, the information was there in your head. But the full understanding of the fact came much later.
@@NotIdefixstop being such a blight. If you were so intelligent to understand what was discussed here you wouldn't have commented this. Chucks reactions are exactly how us regular people feel when we finally understand some level of the insanity of the science around us. Its infectious and he's there to keep us laymen interested.
@@m.3dI don't get it. He's the embodiment of non-science focused people becoming interested in things truly outside our typical understanding of life, the universe, and our existence. Why would we not want to further that. I'm constantly annoyed that more people aren't amazed by the existence of our planet, our solar system, the galaxy, the universe, etc. Its all so fascinating to me and makes my life more fulfilling. Why would a person like Chuck, who should be inspiring casual viewers to become more interested in the fabric of our lives, be such a threat to you? Maybe you are the problem.
I could’ve listened to that conversation for another 6hrs. Whenever Brian Greene is on, you know it’s gonna be a fascinating one. Him, Janna and Charles are the A list guests.
I think Chuckie gets this in the way that I do, which is kinda, sorta but not really.. Lacking the proper mathematical foundation is a big handicap. I like thinking I halfway understand some part of this.
The COSMIC PERSPECTIVE at the end.. WOW!!!! Summed it up beautifully. Thanks to the entire team of STARTALK for creating such content. I'm sure that there are scores of people out there who could not pursue this mystical journey of cosmic exploration in their lives, but are getting their bit through such conversations.

He was the first explanation of space time and Einstein’s theory of relativity that I understood. Been a fan ever since. I see Brian Greene, I’m there.
Before I continue watching I,have to say... There is a lot of us common folks eho try to break and wreck their brains understanding physics and yet qe can't... Therefore thsnk you so much for, purposefully or not, you amazing people, made it in this podcast much more easier for us who do not have physics brains, to understand everything you talked about. If my physics teacher in school explained thingd this way instead of dissing all of us who couldnt understand the science way of explanation, first of all all of us whould have had higher grades and much more important we would have developed understanding of physics, also appreciation and love even. I thank the 3 of you today!
Always amazing to see Neil deGrasse Tyson and Brian Greene together, they are OP together. And how Chuck manages to stay sane is nobel price worthy on it's own.
Amazing talk... three memorable timestamps: 1- 26:10 Chuck figures out what the boson field is 2- 31:25 Brian "but geniuses makes up sh** that's right" 3- 56:27 Neil final words are so inspiring
So it sounded like he also explained what a black hole was if he's describing the universe being woven as a net there for the new black holes gravity is so heavy that it breaks that net
The mix between brilliance, humility, and humor in this video brings me hope for humanity. Neil brought the heat with the outro as well if you haven’t watched it
Hey all, a chemist here, when you talk about tiny wormholes which that connect virtual particle pairs, it vaguely sounds like pairs of electrons and their interactions with other pairs of electrons. Should we rethink our methods for solving the Schrödinger equation and take Feynman’s path integral approach in discretized space instead of using basis sets and molecular orbitals? 🤔
When my ex left, i was really depressed. It just happened that science documentaries were explaining how the stars were so far apart, that when the milky-way and Andromeda merge the chances of two stars colliding are nearly zero. And that is how lonely i was feeling.. so i painted stars and galaxies and black holes and nebulae and comets... in fact we sold the house, and their kids loved it and it is still painted how i did it. My point is, I was inspired by science.. from amazing people like you three!.. i found a way to express my loneliness and depression, painted it... and somehow that made it easier to move on. Absolutely art inspired by science!
@@lovemutts ty, I has taken a lot of work, but I have come miles since then. I found I just needed perspective, and time. And therapy, lol. That has probably been the biggest part of moving on... and the house we sold used to be a daycare. So my universe continued on to the chalkboard and where kids grew up. Like the wonderful young couple that bought the house! She went to daycare there, and her kids love the paintings, and it shows as vast and infinite the universe is... at the same time it's not!
@@Current-Topics I hope it does! I'm really happy that even though I painted it to express loneliness, I painted with the love of science and art, and the fact that it kinda became something positive, for me to start moving on, BUT especially for the kids loving it and the parents leaving it. And I just have a feeling with that kinda start, they will look up at night to the wonders of our universe
This episode is simply beautiful. Startalk is a service to humanity. It should be translated so that non-English speakers can have access. You can count on me as a volunteer to help translate to French, through I'm sure AI can be leveraged for transcription and translation. Seriously though, please look into translation.

I'm 63 and hope I will live long enough to share in the next cosmicbreaking discovery by mankind. When you listen to Brian Greene you can feel it is on the horizon.
Same age, same hopes-I think that between longer lifetimes and AI, we are on track to see some completely “cosmic breaking” discoveries in our lifetime. Definitely a lot to look forward to!
Im 52. The first thing I though at the end of that was, I really hope they combine these mind bending theories and observations and fully map it all out before I'm too daft to understand it or am reduced to the fundamental particles floating through it.
Sorry to burst you hope bubble but it isn't going to happen. Last major discovery was Higgs boson and that wasn't really a discovery. It was just evidence to support a hypothesis from 1964. Gravitational waves was similar, just evidence to support a 100 year old theory.
Yep and I'm still jealous of Chuck. And I still smoke. Gonna do a puff right now for ya, my buddy! At least two heads were obliterated by today's episode. 🤯🤯
This is the best explanation of what a quanta is in relation to 10-dimensional existence while nailing wtf the Higgs field is and htf you can chip a piece of it (actual space) off. I'm going to watch this on loop now.
I am so happy that Chuck is there. You guys breaking down these complex theories to a level that Chuck, and I (the layperson), can make sense of is a service. I tip my hat to you.
25:50 I love seeing how excited Chuck is to understand the concept. It really sparks the joy of learning in me again and excites me to get back into learning!
Imagine how much success we could achieve in science (and every other field) if we all worked together instead of each country trying to do thing independently. Patriotism is a hindrance on scientific advancement.
James, I completely agree. The monologue was so powerful that it inspired me to use some of the voice clips in producing this song, called Edge of Understanding. th-cam.com/video/8YzYke0ynJ4/w-d-xo.html
He didn't though. You can see a cut & splice at 56:25, and everything from 'I delight...' onwards was just him, close-up headshot; the other two weren't in the room at the time of the outro. That said, I found it extremely moving, almost reaching Sagan-ian heights.
@@Dom2Wan oh, I didn’t realize that. I thought he just turned his chair and quickly did it on the fly. I didn’t pay attention to the edits/cuts. Regardless, the statement was still very well put together, worded beautifully, and very moving.
I wish I had better teachers when I was in school. I’ve learned more from this show than I ever thought I would or could know and understand. The universe is a complex space to fully understand is mind blowing. I can’t thank you enough for bringing Startalk and the many guest you have to better explain the science in our crazy universe.
I watch StarTalk for a year now and I don't know how I found it but I'm very glad that I've found it. The chemistry between Neil and Chuck ( and the rest ) I don't think it can get any better than that. I'm more on the Chuck side, always have been semi interested in science but I was always more busy with fooling around. After what was discussed in this episode, I think I'm going to rest for a week, . I'm genuinely amazed by some of the things that have been discussed today! And of course a big thank you to StarTalk to make us a bit smarter every time in a language that everyone can understand!
This is my favorite episode that I've seen yet! Seriously thank you guys for putting these conversations out there. I'm sure its hard to fight ego's, appearance of egos, etc. Smart people can be hard to talk to. You guys do it really well!!
This segment makes you realize just how much Chuck contibutes to this very educational and entertaining cast...I learn so very much from this cast....please guys keep up the good work.....our world needs it...and thank you Brian Greene!!!!
Mr Nice is very quick on the uptake. He represents people like me, the Everyman, who needs some extra explanation. It was a great idea to have him on the show for al these years.
omg, how could a pro like Brian give that terrible pop-sci analogy which is completely wrong? Higgs field is famously a "scalar" field, and that means you can't move relative to it, there is no doppler shift, unlike with EM fields, and BG knows this.

WOW, I am astounded by this video. NDeGT you make me smarter by a fraction every time I watch one of your videos. At 52 I have finally found discussions like this just as exciting as a sporting event. Thank you eternally.
I'm with Chuck on this one - mind absolutely blown. This is one of the best explanations of the Higgs field & boson that I've ever heard, as well as the leading thinking on dark matter & energy. Pass that joint, Lord Nice!
Watching how much Chuck has learned over the years being on this show is pretty cool. Seeing how excited he was when he understood the Hiigs field. He is us
Amen. Sometimes I’m watching his mind get blown by the same stuff I’ve had my mind blown already and sometimes I’m right there with him. If you’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with, he’s a damn sight smarter than I am.
HE. IS. US. His job is to scream at them at the moments that I want to scream at them but am not there to actually scream at them. our simultaneous realizations are entangled at a quantum level.
Thank Neil for being vulnerable with showing that you didnt know all about some of the topics that were discussed… its so humbling to see you where your knowledge ends and wonder begins… makes me actually more interested in continuing learning and wondering as I know im not a billion miles behind those on the cutting edge… ❤

I’ve listened to the 17th minute now and I am absolutely loving it, the subject and stories being shared, the level of details talking about quarks (any science) and of course these 3 precious people (yes I love you too chuck, you’re indispensable), ABSOLUTELY MOUTHWATERING and EXCITING WATCH! Your ad at the 18th minute about critical thinking, bias, misinformation and the Ground news reporting coupled with the examples given is perfectly done and like a cherry on top of my enjoyment watching so far. LOOK NIEL, please please please, whatever level this conversation has, it’s superb and there should be so much more of it, please expect more of your audience and please give yourself, chuck and the fabulous Brian a hug for me in appreciation of existing in the world 💎🙏🏼
I really wish Neil would t interrupt people. I just want to hear their genius and he keeps interjecting with comments that others could make better and more coherent. It’s almost like he wants people to know how smart he is versus just letting the guest showcase why they’re a guest on the show
This is officially the greatest TH-cam video ever. My mind is blown. I’ve always been interested in astrophysics. I remember when I first learned about quarks being smaller than protons and neutrons. I kind of wish I also went to school for astrophysics.
Beautifully concluded in the end. Loved the way you bridged what we wonder and feel to the science n equations. This is one of the best startalk episodes I will cherish for a long time.. thank you all the three of you ❤️.
25:45 is my favorite moment. I LOVE it when science clicks for people. Props to Lord Nice for bringing it down to our level. I actually understood it based on his description!
I love seeing how excited they are talking about physics! I dont understand half of what they are talking about, but I still like listening and learning. Their excitement got me excited!
Paradoxically that’s what makes human so special, our ability to make mistakes and then learn new ways of doing things and to correct those mistakes and to learn from them
The amount of knowledge being offered in this conversation is astounding. Every time a new video comes out , it presents an excellent opportunity to learn something new. I really enjoy the show.😀
The conversation about fields during the Higgs Boson segment blew my mind. Never thought about it this way. Loved it! I had the same reaction as Chuck in this part 😂😂😂😂😂😂
*At **38:13** an incorrect statement was made* about what one can see with photons. As spoken, it ONLY applies to Classical Optics, and the Confocal Microscope goes way beyond that classical limit. For instance, it allows the viewing of individual atoms using visible light. No trickery involved like a computer turning numbers into a picture. You can literally SEE the individual atoms in a sample material _using visible light,_ because the light is first sent through 'light funnels' that have exit apertures _smaller than the wavelength of light of that color!_ For instance, green laser light of 500 nm wavelength, which in Classical Optics cannot go through a hole smaller than 500 nm, is 'squeezed down' to as few as FIVE nm in the 'light funnels', thus making a light source which is much more point-like than is possible for green light _in Classical Optics._ That makes the light, which IS still green, 'act like' X-ray light with a wavelength of only 5 nm. (This size is a practical limit, not a 'law' of optics.) *What we then find is that it is NOT the wavelength which matters; rather, what matters is the **_effective size_** of the light source.* _How do these light funnels do this bit of 'magic,'_ you may ask. The short answer is: Using quantum effects. The slightly less short answer is: The photons strike a plate containing many tiny tapered holes, the 'light funnels.' There the photons interact in a very interesting yet utterly commonplace way with the electrons of the atoms comprising the plate. The photons do not remain as photons; rather, this very normal process occurs that converts them into a sort of 'electron density wave' called *surface plasmon polaritons,* and it is _those plasmon waves which go down the funnels._ When those plasmon waves reach the respective ends of the funnels, some of them get _converted back into photons_ and those photons illuminate the nearby _surface under study._ The very small _effective size_ of the re-minted photons means they have very tiny uncertainties in their positions, and that allows them to have this long-unsuspected 'talent,' That this effect never showed up in the era when Classical Optics was developed is an accident of history, because at that time, we could not make such tiny and precise holes, and we lacked lasers to illuminate the perforated plate. Thus the 'laws' of Classical Optics were developed in ignorance of the full abilities of photons, resulting in _an incomplete Theory of Optics._
One of the best shows I've ever watched out of hundreds of hours. Clear yet intellectually challenging. Engaging yet not insulting to us mere mortals. Chuck I'm with you. WOW! I need some WEED!.
I've said it once I'll say it again, the humanity of these guests like Brian Greene is more than half of the appeal of them as outstanding humans, not just their science or pop-science
I really appreciate Chuck being here providing the comic breaks which provide laughs, but also a moment to retell yourself the information at hand. Also Neil keeping Chuck in the loop and thereby answering hypotethical FAQ’s we might have along with Chuck. Chuck is also at the level of most educated listeners. Not ignorant, not an expert, just some surface level understanding and a few areas of slightly deeper understanding. PERFECT balance.
You guys should have a section of this channel, or maybe the Startalk+ channel just to te describe to general audience (like me) with little or almost no knowledge of science, how scientific discoveries, nobel prizes, theories and all in between translate into everyday products that serve as the building blocks of the advancements in civilization. Just so we can visually make the connection and better appreciate your contributions and better relate with your discoveries.
Thank you for taking me on an amazing adventure of the mind. Physics, Astronomy, Archaeology, and Paleontology are my key interests. I always wanted to be scientist but ended up getting into engineering or electronics due to geography & finances. But I always enjoy the journey from those of you that succeeded in making the trip. The Elegant Universe is one of my all time favorite books. And both versions of the Cosmos are right up there with it.
I love these videos but it seems like more ads than other videos . Can NDT control that because it’s borderline offensive and makes it hard to watch with all the ads despite how good the show is.
I'm with Chuck, I need to be taking something before I watch episodes like this ;) Seriously, I've always found Brian Greene to be incredibly insightful. I do wish he would have talked more about the entanglement wormholes being the "fabric" that is space. Thanks for having him come on and talk about it; i've been coming back to it again and again after hearing about the lunch conversation. Please invite him back and have him go into more details on that!!!! (and how super-symmetry may have the answer to Dark Matter -- and does that tie back to "super-string" theory?!!?!?)
@@danhowie1699It is extremely simple to understand these are one-dimensional string membranes that are destroyed by The Singularity of a black hole and once this happens they are in a state in between 0 and 1 dimensional this creates Dark Matter coming out of black holes and what is considered non baryonic matter. This is the counterforce to the expansion of the universe. We don't we do not live in a 3 + 1 System One of the most important things that I recently came to conclude is that I have came up with a system to prove that we live in an infinite Multiverse. I will state it here and now. So if we follow the logical progression of the spatial Dimensions infinite zero-dimensional existence can stack into any size one dimensional existence and infinite one-dimensional existence can stack into any size two-dimensional existence and infinite two-dimensional existence can stack into any size three-dimensional existence so if we follow this logical progression we can conclude that infinite three-dimensional existence can stack into any size four dimensional existence. This means if we don't live in a 3 + 1 System we should observe the relative state or shape of the universe as flat or compressed in a non evenly distributed matter and basically we should observe a stacked effect of three-dimensional existence which would make a relatively flat universe or at least a universe in a distribution matter that is non spherical and evenly distributed... so because of this we can conclude that we are not the fundamental highest spatial Dimension and that a fourth spatial Dimension must exist and if so then infinite three-dimensional Universal potentiality can stack into any size four dimensional existence so ultimately this proves a Multiverse. Just remember infinite three-dimensional Universal potentiality can stack into any size four dimensional existence... this means that because the observed state of the universe is flat or non evenly distributed in a spherical manner then this means there is extra dimensional influence compressing the state making it stack and if a fourth spatial Dimension exists then a infinite Multiverse must exist and the stack ability must exist therefore this observed phenomenon means that a fourth spatial Dimension must exist making a infinite three-dimensional Multiverse the standard Norm.............
The gluonic force between this trio is top tier! 🌟 What's something you wish Brian Greene could expand on?
what is the urantia book and how is it connected to science
Light and the electromagnetic spectrum is probably my favorite. You guys discussed the planck length but not really the impact it has on the forces and energy it applies to the universe. One of my personal(likely incorrect) ideas was that rather than geometry and curvature being responsible for gravity, it may actually be electromagnetic interactions and the latent energies within atoms and even down to leptons, quarks, etc. Since it's strong and weak nuclear forces(effectively electromagnetism) that holds things together at that level, why wouldn't that influence impact the greater universe even supposing the inverse square law significantly reduces the effect over distance. If the entire universe is saturated with these forces, it would make sense that small imbalances would causes attraction and even repulsion forces. Maybe you can do a video on something of that nature?
Perhaps make clear that most of theoretical physics is just that , theory , not fact and not backed by any empirical evidence, a good example is string theory it is no more likely than a fairytale, sorry
What about Donald Hoffman saying our perception of reality is not a direct representation of the objective world, but rather a simplified interface that has evolved to help us survive? And he thinks consciousness is not an emergent property of physical particles (like brains), but rather a fundamental aspect of reality itself.
The properties and mysteries of light.
We should be greatful that there are people out there like Neil Degrass Tyson and Brian Green who are not just scientist but are also public figures who spend a lot of their precious time to educate us on what is going on with their work.
That's cool and all, and I in general agree with you on that, but it doesn't change the fact that science has hit a major brick wall- there is no proven answer as to why we exist which is the most important question above all else.
@@tf4665that had nothing to do with the comment
@@tf4665and we exist so we can experience, hope that helps.
@@tf4665 While I would say yes, science has never been able to figure out that answer, doesn't necessarily mean they've hit a brick wall. There's still tons of amazing things that science finds out all the time about our universe, our planet, and ourselves. "Why do we exist" will probably be the greatest question of all time, but if we just sit here and only ever wonder that, then we would never get anywhere. Be greatful that we do, and if we ever find out, then be greatful for that, but never stop questioning the rest of everything. We are a speck of a piece of a piece of sand in this universe. Stay looking up!!!
@tf4665 "Why" questions are rarely smart questions, unless an INTENDER has been clearly identified and undeniably proven to be the cause and the mechanics are understood, and what remains to be learned is the final goal that triggered the action.
I really needed this break from politics. Thank you people for keeping me sane. And thrilled to be alive!
It's only going to get worse, close to election year i'm afraid. Politics are tiresome.
YAAS😊
Yet you come here mentioning politics 😂

The American experiment is ending.
Fascism has arrived, wrapped in a flag and carrying an upside down Bible.
I'm starting to realize that as Chuck gets smarter Neil talks on a higher level along with the guests and I can't listen in passing while multi-tasking anymore.
Chuck has surpassed us and now is known as Lord Chuck.
With these kind of conversations I can do nothing but stare and listen and put my mind into a zen like sponge state of realisation and logic. This can take several viewings.
Lol yep now I actually have to pay attention or I zone back in when they're talking about a fuzz cloud and I'm like wtf did I miss!?
I really appreciate Chucks responses when he finds something interesting or confusing. When I'm listening passively Chuck is my cue to rewind abit, slow playback speed back down, and start paying attention
Do MANY people realky belueve all particals obta8n their mass from Higgs Feilds? Many?! Lol
Whoever edited this video deserves massive praise. You can see how they structured their talk with the underlying understanding of the topic
true that😊
Always love to see Brian on the show
where else should he go? working on... String Theory?
why should he mess up the second half of his life too?

Chuck just had another sciencegasm. This is why StarTalk is so addictive 😊
The best type of addiction to have.
To me he’s the worse part
I pleased I'm not the only one who referenced it's like, I'm addicted to this, Lincolnshire, UK.
The best part of all of this is to watch Chuck. Basically, Neil and Brian are talking shop talk, and Chuck is along for the ride until Chuck has his epiphany. That is what I love the most. He got it. Then he says he feels included, rather than the 3rd wheel. Now Chuck is on board, and he is concentrating so hard. I love his funny quips and interpretations, but now that he is there and in the moment, it's just a beautiful thing to see him now a part of the team. I love Chuck, but it way more fun to see him celebrate after his breakthrough.
His struggle to understand the concept and then the epiphany he has once he finally does understand is what some of us regular folks at home feel like as well. So it's like we're celebrating together our growth in knowledge.
It makes me feel included too🎉🎉
\we could do without him - just a distraction
Chuck represents the rest of us. We just look confused until it finally makes a little sense... right before getting lost again.
The fabric of space is a tweed. Beautiful.
Whenever I feel the burden of stupidity around the world and am about to get into that depressed realm, I come to my podcasts, and #Startalk almost has never failed to not just pulling me out but elevating me way up there!
This episode though was one of those extra ones, for Chuck once again was exactly showing my state of mind and excitement!!!🎉😂
Nei Tyson & Brian Greene each has the same effect on me when I watch or listen to them; now the two together and the back and forth explosive brillance of minds popping... 🎉
Chuck showed what happens to simple minds like mine when learning these amazing sciences from amazing teachers!
❤🎉🌐💫
Dr. Greene is a phenomenal educator and physicist. Thank you for having him on the show.
He's a good physasits. Even better communicator. I LOVE listening to him. He is effortless with his language and makes it easier to understand with the language he chooses to use.
He has a lot of patience too. Having someone cut you every 15 seconds when you try to explain something must be exhausting.

This episode is legendary! My only regret is that Neil didn't record his lunch with Brian 😂 but I feel lucky to live in a time where I could peek through a conversation between two scientists and try to work my mind through it. Thank you to everyone behind Star Talk, you're the best. Abeer from Algeria.
I think without Chuck the dynamics would be less... awesome episode😊❤.
I took hundred of years from newton to einstein.
Maybe we need hundreds again for the next😅😊
Chuck is so critical to this show. He makes them slow down and explain when they need to, and also his reactions when he finally gets it (which is usually when I’m getting it too) perfectly encapsulate how I feel in those moments
Well said!
Have to say, Brian Greene is my favorite presenter in the realm of nuclear and quantum physics. Not that their arms a lot of others who do well. There is just something great about Brian especially when he has a panel that he’s talking to.
And the quark sounds are just too accurate. We all know that's EXACLTY what quark pairs being created would sound like. Hahaha! 😆😆
Exactly! He's a proxy for the audience, so Neil can slow down and add context. Chuck's questions help me understand the connections between ideas more fully.
@@efblessChuck is us. He is the very best part (growth mindset plus extra heaps of curiosity and awe) in all of us non-astrophysicists.
The www was born to link institutions so they could share and stimulate. This show is stimulating, and show cases three of our modern worlds greatest institutions, Sharing them right in our living rooms. The webs founders would be thrilled to know of your work. Chuck you are essential to this format. You represent us, the audience. We all know you could have taken your career in other directions, but honestly, you bring this production alive.
Guys, whoever runs this account for StarTalk? This is the best episode I’ve ever seen. And Brian’s great as always, but what really made this special was Neil really allowing Chuck to get in the mix and learn, explain very detailed things that Chuck proves he can keep up with. Going a little deeper works.
Yes, the elaboration was perfect here. It made it so I could follow the conversation myself.
This is my first time watching and I love Chuck for being just as confused as I am 😂 We seem to have the same questions!
Im not that far in yet but Chuck's sound effects alone are sendin me 😅
I 100% agree. Best one I’ve seen. Might have been the pacing and the interesting topics
It's simple, I see Brian Greene, I get hyped over science and come away mind blown.
Brian is my favourite physicist. He has this ability to explain extraordinarily complex concepts in a way that makes them so clear and intuitive to follow. That said, this podcast just blew my mind. 🤯
And that outro speech by Neil... 👀
he has the ability to complicate simple things. in a way that makes people think make sence.
@@atticuswalker
Please explain or give example.
@@kingnuthin4517 science put itself in a box. and is now trying to explain the box dosent exist. they invent things like dark matter and tell you what it is. but it's bulshit.
the universe is not complicated. it's basic math.
@@atticuswalker definitely the opposite.
"I have not been the same since we had lunch" is an excellent hook for an episode, this is the best ep.
Chuck's reaction to gaining understanding around fields is how I reacted to reading Brian's books.
Chuck's reactions are just annoying and interrupt the two people who actually provide content.
@NotIdefix I feel this way too, it actually puts me off listening to Niels shows when i really want to stick around. This one was tolerable just about
Oh yea, it is so wonderful to watch someone getting so hyped about understanding something 😁
Last time that happened to me a couple years ago, I had an opposite reaction - I was sitting in silence for a few mintutes, just absorbing the fact that a strong nuclear force is the energy that is released during the explosion of a fission bomb. And you can measure that force... In a Helium atom, it is a bit over 20 Newtons. Between two protons... Two particles with completly negligible size compared to our size, produce a force of 20 Newtons between them. A bag of 2kg of potatoes. Between two protons.
It took a while to absorb that thought. And make me truely understand why "strong" nuclear force is called this way.
And then the amount of matter undergoing fission during the bomb explosion, suddenly made so much more sence. 😉
That's something you kind of knew, the information was there in your head. But the full understanding of the fact came much later.
@@NotIdefixstop being such a blight. If you were so intelligent to understand what was discussed here you wouldn't have commented this. Chucks reactions are exactly how us regular people feel when we finally understand some level of the insanity of the science around us. Its infectious and he's there to keep us laymen interested.
@@m.3dI don't get it. He's the embodiment of non-science focused people becoming interested in things truly outside our typical understanding of life, the universe, and our existence. Why would we not want to further that. I'm constantly annoyed that more people aren't amazed by the existence of our planet, our solar system, the galaxy, the universe, etc. Its all so fascinating to me and makes my life more fulfilling. Why would a person like Chuck, who should be inspiring casual viewers to become more interested in the fabric of our lives, be such a threat to you? Maybe you are the problem.
I could’ve listened to that conversation for another 6hrs.
Whenever Brian Greene is on, you know it’s gonna be a fascinating one. Him, Janna and Charles are the A list guests.
Janna Levin?
@@Jay-ft3xh typo yeah, not Jenna Jamieson 🤣
Chuck Nice probably has earned an honorary PhD in physics doing all these shows.
I think Chuckie gets this in the way that I do, which is kinda, sorta but not really.. Lacking the proper mathematical foundation is a big handicap. I like thinking I halfway understand some part of this.
Then we all have
Haha, like Einstein's limo driver.

Hey, but we all have to agree. He is one lucky dude. I would love to be in his shoes.
The COSMIC PERSPECTIVE at the end.. WOW!!!!
Summed it up beautifully.
Thanks to the entire team of STARTALK for creating such content. I'm sure that there are scores of people out there who could not pursue this mystical journey of cosmic exploration in their lives, but are getting their bit through such conversations.
Brian Greene is the guy who got me into this stuff 20 years ago. He's the best

He was the first explanation of space time and Einstein’s theory of relativity that I understood. Been a fan ever since. I see Brian Greene, I’m there.
He did nice work on Beverly Hills 90210 too.
Chuck has become way more than comedic relief and adds so much value to conversation now! I love how he’s grown!!
100%
Totally ! He evolved from making jokes on the side, into being in the topic and living the joke. So uplifting to see relatable comedic figure
He’s the one who asks the questions for us mere mortals and aspiring nerds.
his contribution to this episode was nothing but insufferable jokes and screaming 😭
I was about to say the same thing. I remember the early days when he was just a nice (ha) addition.
He's grown into a vital part ❤
Before I continue watching I,have to say... There is a lot of us common folks eho try to break and wreck their brains understanding physics and yet qe can't... Therefore thsnk you so much for, purposefully or not, you amazing people, made it in this podcast much more easier for us who do not have physics brains, to understand everything you talked about. If my physics teacher in school explained thingd this way instead of dissing all of us who couldnt understand the science way of explanation, first of all all of us whould have had higher grades and much more important we would have developed understanding of physics, also appreciation and love even. I thank the 3 of you today!
Always amazing to see Neil deGrasse Tyson and Brian Greene together, they are OP together. And how Chuck manages to stay sane is nobel price worthy on it's own.
Amazing talk... three memorable timestamps:
1- 26:10 Chuck figures out what the boson field is
2- 31:25 Brian "but geniuses makes up sh** that's right"
3- 56:27 Neil final words are so inspiring
4- 54:39 Neil mentioned Noah's flood
So it sounded like he also explained what a black hole was if he's describing the universe being woven as a net there for the new black holes gravity is so heavy that it breaks that net
The mix between brilliance, humility, and humor in this video brings me hope for humanity. Neil brought the heat with the outro as well if you haven’t watched it
Hey all, a chemist here, when you talk about tiny wormholes which that connect virtual particle pairs, it vaguely sounds like pairs of electrons and their interactions with other pairs of electrons. Should we rethink our methods for solving the Schrödinger equation and take Feynman’s path integral approach in discretized space instead of using basis sets and molecular orbitals? 🤔
I love these guys. They have figured out how to have a barbershop style conversation about general relativity and quantum science. Gotta love it.
When my ex left, i was really depressed. It just happened that science documentaries were explaining how the stars were so far apart, that when the milky-way and Andromeda merge the chances of two stars colliding are nearly zero. And that is how lonely i was feeling.. so i painted stars and galaxies and black holes and nebulae and comets... in fact we sold the house, and their kids loved it and it is still painted how i did it.
My point is, I was inspired by science.. from amazing people like you three!.. i found a way to express my loneliness and depression, painted it... and somehow that made it easier to move on. Absolutely art inspired by science!
What if those paintings inspired those kids to go on to explore science and space too. How cool would that be
@@lovemutts ty, I has taken a lot of work, but I have come miles since then. I found I just needed perspective, and time. And therapy, lol. That has probably been the biggest part of moving on... and the house we sold used to be a daycare. So my universe continued on to the chalkboard and where kids grew up. Like the wonderful young couple that bought the house! She went to daycare there, and her kids love the paintings, and it shows as vast and infinite the universe is... at the same time it's not!
@@Current-Topics I hope it does! I'm really happy that even though I painted it to express loneliness, I painted with the love of science and art, and the fact that it kinda became something positive, for me to start moving on, BUT especially for the kids loving it and the parents leaving it. And I just have a feeling with that kinda start, they will look up at night to the wonders of our universe
Truest, purest beauty.
So in other words, you smoked alot of weed
Chuck's enthusiasm when he absorbs something - this brings me joy.

I'm 63 and hope I will live long enough to share in the next cosmicbreaking discovery by mankind. When you listen to Brian Greene you can feel it is on the horizon.
Same age, same hopes-I think that between longer lifetimes and AI, we are on track to see some completely “cosmic breaking” discoveries in our lifetime. Definitely a lot to look forward to!
Im 52. The first thing I though at the end of that was, I really hope they combine these mind bending theories and observations and fully map it all out before I'm too daft to understand it or am reduced to the fundamental particles floating through it.
Sorry to burst you hope bubble but it isn't going to happen. Last major discovery was Higgs boson and that wasn't really a discovery. It was just evidence to support a hypothesis from 1964. Gravitational waves was similar, just evidence to support a 100 year old theory.
It’s just always updating every few years
Do you want 'the key'?
Chuck is watching a tennis match, much like the rest of us. What a great place to sit between these 2 gentlemen.
I feel like a golf announcer watching ice hockey and trying to comment on it.
😂
be a lot better of a convo 1-1
Yep and I'm still jealous of Chuck. And I still smoke. Gonna do a puff right now for ya, my buddy! At least two heads were obliterated by today's episode. 🤯🤯
Chuck is one of us, showing that we shouldn't feel bad that we don't understand every nuance of it.
This is the best explanation of what a quanta is in relation to 10-dimensional existence while nailing wtf the Higgs field is and htf you can chip a piece of it (actual space) off. I'm going to watch this on loop now.
I am so happy that Chuck is there. You guys breaking down these complex theories to a level that Chuck, and I (the layperson), can make sense of is a service. I tip my hat to you.
You have comedians' comedians, and then you have physicists' physicists like Brian.
What a guest, what a mind. What a delight.
25:50 I love seeing how excited Chuck is to understand the concept. It really sparks the joy of learning in me again and excites me to get back into learning!
Imagine how much success we could achieve in science (and every other field) if we all worked together instead of each country trying to do thing independently. Patriotism is a hindrance on scientific advancement.
That outro/monologue at the end was amazing. The fact that he can just muster that up on the fly is extraordinary!
James, I completely agree. The monologue was so powerful that it inspired me to use some of the voice clips in producing this song, called Edge of Understanding. th-cam.com/video/8YzYke0ynJ4/w-d-xo.html
He didn't though. You can see a cut & splice at 56:25, and everything from 'I delight...' onwards was just him, close-up headshot; the other two weren't in the room at the time of the outro. That said, I found it extremely moving, almost reaching Sagan-ian heights.
@@Dom2Wan oh, I didn’t realize that. I thought he just turned his chair and quickly did it on the fly. I didn’t pay attention to the edits/cuts. Regardless, the statement was still very well put together, worded beautifully, and very moving.
I wish I had better teachers when I was in school. I’ve learned more from this show than I ever thought I would or could know and understand. The universe is a complex space to fully understand is mind blowing. I can’t thank you enough for bringing Startalk and the many guest you have to better explain the science in our crazy universe.
I watch StarTalk for a year now and I don't know how I found it but I'm very glad that I've found it.
The chemistry between Neil and Chuck ( and the rest ) I don't think it can get any better than that.
I'm more on the Chuck side, always have been semi interested in science but I was always more busy with fooling around.
After what was discussed in this episode, I think I'm going to rest for a week, .
I'm genuinely amazed by some of the things that have been discussed today!
And of course a big thank you to StarTalk to make us a bit smarter every time in a language that everyone can understand!
This is my favorite episode that I've seen yet! Seriously thank you guys for putting these conversations out there. I'm sure its hard to fight ego's, appearance of egos, etc. Smart people can be hard to talk to. You guys do it really well!!
This segment makes you realize just how much Chuck contibutes to this very educational and entertaining cast...I learn so very much from this cast....please guys keep up the good work.....our world needs it...and thank you Brian Greene!!!!
Mr Nice is very quick on the uptake. He represents people like me, the Everyman, who needs some extra explanation. It was a great idea to have him on the show for al these years.

24:40 i have never heard the Higgs boson described so clearly. absolutely beautiful I'm as mind blown as Chuck
omg, how could a pro like Brian give that terrible pop-sci analogy which is completely wrong? Higgs field is famously a "scalar" field, and that means you can't move relative to it, there is no doppler shift, unlike with EM fields, and BG knows this.
@@DrDeuteronIt is extremely simple to understand these are one-dimensional string membranes that are destroyed by The Singularity of a black hole and once this happens they are in a state in between 0 and 1 dimensional this creates Dark Matter coming out of black holes and what is considered non baryonic matter. This is the counterforce to the expansion of the universe. We don't we do not live in a 3 + 1 System One of the most important things that I recently came to conclude is that I have came up with a system to prove that we live in an infinite Multiverse. I will state it here and now. So if we follow the logical progression of the spatial Dimensions infinite zero-dimensional existence can stack into any size one dimensional existence and infinite one-dimensional existence can stack into any size two-dimensional existence and infinite two-dimensional existence can stack into any size three-dimensional existence so if we follow this logical progression we can conclude that infinite three-dimensional existence can stack into any size four dimensional existence. This means if we don't live in a 3 + 1 System we should observe the relative state or shape of the universe as flat or compressed in a non evenly distributed matter and basically we should observe a stacked effect of three-dimensional existence which would make a relatively flat universe or at least a universe in a distribution matter that is non spherical and evenly distributed... so because of this we can conclude that we are not the fundamental highest spatial Dimension and that a fourth spatial Dimension must exist and if so then infinite three-dimensional Universal potentiality can stack into any size four dimensional existence so ultimately this proves a Multiverse. Just remember infinite three-dimensional Universal potentiality can stack into any size four dimensional existence... this means that because the observed state of the universe is flat or non evenly distributed in a spherical manner then this means there is extra dimensional influence compressing the state making it stack and if a fourth spatial Dimension exists then a infinite Multiverse must exist and the stack ability must exist therefore this observed phenomenon means that a fourth spatial Dimension must exist making a infinite three-dimensional Multiverse the standard Norm.........
@@DrDeuteron The Cern website describes it the exact same way. the higgs field gives particles their pass by them moving through it. by the dragging force Brian described. then Cern goes on to say that the particle must be created in a particle accelerator. Cern says that it is the fundamental particle of the higgs field just like a photon is to light even behaves the same way as light in both a wave and particle form. what about his explination was pop-sci and wrong? because checking sources he seems to just be saying what Cern is. home.cern/science/physics/higgs-boson/what home.cern/science/physics/higgs-boson
@@DrDeuteron Cern describes it basically the same way. the higgs field is a field that permeates space and give fundamental particles mass, through the process Brian describes. The higgs boson is created by fundamental particles colliding and interacting with the higgs field. what about his description was terrible pop-sci? home.cern/science/physics/higgs-boson/what home.cern/science/physics/higgs-boson
I love this podcast! Although this episode was waaaayyy over my comprehension, it was so cool to see them so excited and trying to breakdown the conversation. And Chuck having the epiphanies made this episode. I hope we can continue to watch/listen to this podcast for years to come! ❤☄️🌌🛰️
Brian and Neil together are the best!
I seriously learned more about quantum physics from this conversation than I've ever learned in my life. You guys are AWESOME together. There were so many principles explained here that I've never fully understood before. Excellent job!
I would forget what these bozos are saying. They just tiptoe around stuff making everyone think they learned something
@@sweetdoomkillsonline6161
@@sweetdoomkillsonline6161 Oh, and how exactly do you know that?
@@Chris-hx3om well, tell me what you learned from these bozos other than a bunch of "maybe"
@@sweetdoomkillsonline6161 I didn't make a claim, you did. Now backup your claim.
How refreshing it is to listen to someone of high intelligence and grounded giving substance instead of the empty information on social media
Went from seeing a 60sec reel to watching a damn near 60 min video.. well worth it tho!!
I just love when Greene is on the show! This is food for the mind!
I love food and minds! Maybe I'm a llama zombie...
Chuck's quark popping sound effect was pure genius 🎉
i just heard the popping, and i agree with this message

This was my first Startalk that I watched all the way through! I need more of these sfx so this makes sense. More hand-diagrams would be great too!
That first popping sound at 9:10 was insanely good, exactly from SF
WOW, I am astounded by this video. NDeGT you make me smarter by a fraction every time I watch one of your videos. At 52 I have finally found discussions like this just as exciting as a sporting event. Thank you eternally.
I'm with Chuck on this one - mind absolutely blown. This is one of the best explanations of the Higgs field & boson that I've ever heard, as well as the leading thinking on dark matter & energy. Pass that joint, Lord Nice!
21 missed calls from Terrence Howard
Billy carson on line 2
Hahahaha
First laugh of the day, thank you! 😂 Lol
Just watched that B4 this so I started rolling in a quiet room full of ppl
Terrance is wild😂
please make more episodes with Brian Green. Neil and Brian are the best speakers and astrophysicist.
Watching how much Chuck has learned over the years being on this show is pretty cool. Seeing how excited he was when he understood the Hiigs field. He is us
Amen. Sometimes I’m watching his mind get blown by the same stuff I’ve had my mind blown already and sometimes I’m right there with him. If you’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with, he’s a damn sight smarter than I am.
HE. IS. US. His job is to scream at them at the moments that I want to scream at them but am not there to actually scream at them. our simultaneous realizations are entangled at a quantum level.
Thank Neil for being vulnerable with showing that you didnt know all about some of the topics that were discussed… its so humbling to see you where your knowledge ends and wonder begins… makes me actually more interested in continuing learning and wondering as I know im not a billion miles behind those on the cutting edge… ❤
25:50 this is probably one of the best description I've heard explaining this. I think I had the same reaction as chuck while listening to it.🤯
I love when you guys start to talk more advanced and not too over-explicative, trust me you guys have educated us(your audience) so much, that just like chuck, we are ready for this advanced topics, I enjoyed this video so much, thank you guys
Best episode I’ve seen so far. Great explanations!
I was about to write the exact same comment!
Great episode!! How many others think Neil has to get Brian Greene and Janna Levin on the show together? That would make for a killer show!!
I second this ✌🏻
Startalk is my lullaby. the smooth voice of neil is so comfy :p love startalk!
Astro version of Barry White
Going to try that
Doing that now 😊💕

I’ve listened to the 17th minute now and I am absolutely loving it, the subject and stories being shared, the level of details talking about quarks (any science) and of course these 3 precious people (yes I love you too chuck, you’re indispensable), ABSOLUTELY MOUTHWATERING and EXCITING WATCH!
Your ad at the 18th minute about critical thinking, bias, misinformation and the Ground news reporting coupled with the examples given is perfectly done and like a cherry on top of my enjoyment watching so far.
LOOK NIEL, please please please, whatever level this conversation has, it’s superb and there should be so much more of it, please expect more of your audience and please give yourself, chuck and the fabulous Brian a hug for me in appreciation of existing in the world 💎🙏🏼
I really wish Neil would t interrupt people. I just want to hear their genius and he keeps interjecting with comments that others could make better and more coherent. It’s almost like he wants people to know how smart he is versus just letting the guest showcase why they’re a guest on the show
This is officially the greatest TH-cam video ever. My mind is blown. I’ve always been interested in astrophysics. I remember when I first learned about quarks being smaller than protons and neutrons. I kind of wish I also went to school for astrophysics.
Chucks Eureka moment is golden
The end almost made me cry 😅 I love everything you do @startalk! Curiosity and exploration made my purpose.
I soooo love how excited Chuck gets when something makes sense or becomes clear.
Beautifully concluded in the end. Loved the way you bridged what we wonder and feel to the science n equations. This is one of the best startalk episodes I will cherish for a long time.. thank you all the three of you ❤️.
25:45 is my favorite moment. I LOVE it when science clicks for people. Props to Lord Nice for bringing it down to our level. I actually understood it based on his description!
This is one of the best episodes I’ve seen so far. Nothing against the other shows but this one was incredible.
Possibly my favorite episode yet! And the moving epilogue certainly helped. VERY WELL DONE! onward and forward.
Idk wtf happened but I'm loving this new Chuck era SO MUCH! keep looking up!
I think he's been learning and has reached a confidence in speaking up
I always like Brian Greene's energy, he seems like a genuine guy I can listen to with satisfying results
Neil: I can't remember why we were having lunch.
Brian: Because we were hungry
That was pure gold 😂😂😂
I love seeing how excited they are talking about physics! I dont understand half of what they are talking about, but I still like listening and learning. Their excitement got me excited!
Paradoxically that’s what makes human so special, our ability to make mistakes and then learn new ways of doing things and to correct those mistakes and to learn from them
The amount of knowledge being offered in this conversation is astounding. Every time a new video comes out , it presents an excellent opportunity to learn something new. I really enjoy the show.😀
The conversation about fields during the Higgs Boson segment blew my mind. Never thought about it this way. Loved it! I had the same reaction as Chuck in this part 😂😂😂😂😂😂
How I wish this was the centerpiece when Sean C. was the guest. This was more up on his alley compared to Brian.
*At **38:13** an incorrect statement was made* about what one can see with photons. As spoken, it ONLY applies to Classical Optics, and the Confocal Microscope goes way beyond that classical limit. For instance, it allows the viewing of individual atoms using visible light. No trickery involved like a computer turning numbers into a picture. You can literally SEE the individual atoms in a sample material _using visible light,_ because the light is first sent through 'light funnels' that have exit apertures _smaller than the wavelength of light of that color!_
For instance, green laser light of 500 nm wavelength, which in Classical Optics cannot go through a hole smaller than 500 nm, is 'squeezed down' to as few as FIVE nm in the 'light funnels', thus making a light source which is much more point-like than is possible for green light _in Classical Optics._ That makes the light, which IS still green, 'act like' X-ray light with a wavelength of only 5 nm. (This size is a practical limit, not a 'law' of optics.)
*What we then find is that it is NOT the wavelength which matters; rather, what matters is the **_effective size_** of the light source.*
_How do these light funnels do this bit of 'magic,'_ you may ask. The short answer is: Using quantum effects.
The slightly less short answer is: The photons strike a plate containing many tiny tapered holes, the 'light funnels.' There the photons interact in a very interesting yet utterly commonplace way with the electrons of the atoms comprising the plate. The photons do not remain as photons; rather, this very normal process occurs that converts them into a sort of 'electron density wave' called *surface plasmon polaritons,* and it is _those plasmon waves which go down the funnels._ When those plasmon waves reach the respective ends of the funnels, some of them get _converted back into photons_ and those photons illuminate the nearby _surface under study._ The very small _effective size_ of the re-minted photons means they have very tiny uncertainties in their positions, and that allows them to have this long-unsuspected 'talent,'
That this effect never showed up in the era when Classical Optics was developed is an accident of history, because at that time, we could not make such tiny and precise holes, and we lacked lasers to illuminate the perforated plate. Thus the 'laws' of Classical Optics were developed in ignorance of the full abilities of photons, resulting in _an incomplete Theory of Optics._
One of the best shows I've ever watched out of hundreds of hours. Clear yet intellectually challenging. Engaging yet not insulting to us mere mortals. Chuck I'm with you. WOW! I need some WEED!.
This is the best StarTalk episode EVER~! My head would hurt if it weren't for Chuck. Thank you, Brian Greene, Neil, and Chuck~!
I've said it once I'll say it again, the humanity of these guests like Brian Greene is more than half of the appeal of them as outstanding humans, not just their science or pop-science
Absolutely. True of any famous person I look up to
Can We All Just Agree Lord Nice Absolutlely Makes This Show. Thank You Brian Greene.
Oh snap, I showed up 25min after this published. Love the show. The mechanisms of space rather than just space itself have always interested me.
I really appreciate Chuck being here providing the comic breaks which provide laughs, but also a moment to retell yourself the information at hand.
Also Neil keeping Chuck in the loop and thereby answering hypotethical FAQ’s we might have along with Chuck.
Chuck is also at the level of most educated listeners. Not ignorant, not an expert, just some surface level understanding and a few areas of slightly deeper understanding. PERFECT balance.
You guys should have a section of this channel, or maybe the Startalk+ channel just to te describe to general audience (like me) with little or almost no knowledge of science, how scientific discoveries, nobel prizes, theories and all in between translate into everyday products that serve as the building blocks of the advancements in civilization. Just so we can visually make the connection and better appreciate your contributions and better relate with your discoveries.
Oh that would be great.
Thank you for taking me on an amazing adventure of the mind. Physics, Astronomy, Archaeology, and Paleontology are my key interests. I always wanted to be scientist but ended up getting into engineering or electronics due to geography & finances. But I always enjoy the journey from those of you that succeeded in making the trip.
The Elegant Universe is one of my all time favorite books. And both versions of the Cosmos are right up there with it.
Neil and Chuck for 2024!
If only...
I’ll pass on that.
Just Neil lol
I think Neil is from Kenya😮
And give up our choice between a fossil and a criminal?!
The way Neil and Chuck react it’s like Brian is spittin fire rap lyrics!! 😂🔥🔥
Look at the way Brian throws his hand out when he's right at the climax of what he's talking about
There's something so special and awesome about this episode. Love it.
I love these videos but it seems like more ads than other videos . Can NDT control that because it’s borderline offensive and makes it hard to watch with all the ads despite how good the show is.
I'm with Chuck, I need to be taking something before I watch episodes like this ;) Seriously, I've always found Brian Greene to be incredibly insightful. I do wish he would have talked more about the entanglement wormholes being the "fabric" that is space. Thanks for having him come on and talk about it; i've been coming back to it again and again after hearing about the lunch conversation.
Please invite him back and have him go into more details on that!!!! (and how super-symmetry may have the answer to Dark Matter -- and does that tie back to "super-string" theory?!!?!?)
I gotta get me some mushrooms and watch this again. lol
