The human brain is one of the smartest on the planet. But there are some things we just can’t wrap our minds around. One of those is the paradox.
We’ve evolved to think of reality in a specific way, but there are paradoxes out there that suggest reality doesn’t work the way we think it does.
And now some physicists think they have solved a 50 year old paradox...but have they? And what are the other strangest paradoxes? Get ready to find out!

Dolphins brain's are the smartest on the planet - A Dolphin, (do not take this literally and get triggered like the following people have 🤦♂️) It is tounge and cheek, the comment is pretending to be a dolphin commenting. I went on to play devil's advocate in the thread to explain that there is a lot if things we do not know as a race. So long and thanks for all the fish!

Here’s a fun fact: if time travel ever exists, than it already and always has existed.
Maybe we'll just never know because you cant travel back in time to whats already happened and just a copy of it or nothing changes physically because rewinding time might not undo the physical changes caused during that passing of time but just the time itself, just like telescopes view past events but in current time
@@mattball420 well technically everything happened in the past everything we hear is from the past because that sound takes time to travel to your ears.
It could be time travel exists or has existed and it's never affected us b.c our civilization doesn't reach that pinnacle.... or it's been achieved and some how our grandchildren perfected how we achieve immortality so the schematics were destroyed so we always come to an outcome of enlightenment
Or!!! Why can't everything we experience right now, in this moment, be the first time it's ever happened and there is no "future" to travel to because we are writing history for the 1st time ever?
I don't think 'traveling ' through time is possible. There are way too many variables involved. Every action a human or any animal makes effects his second to second existence . I did this (cause)& this was the result(affect) & there are 8 billion people on our planet making decisions & taking actions or making decisions & NOT taking actions all day, every day, nanosecond by nanosecond. This literally creates our reality unless, like some sci fi material such as Westworld has speculated, it doesn't. That free will is mostly an illusion & that humans are so predictable that if given the opportunity we would all make the same decisions, & make the same actions over & over & over again with the same predictable results or affects. That there are actually a few moments in each of our lives where we really do have free will & the ability to actually change the outcome of our futures but we mostly blow it because we either don't sense the moment or if do we simply make the wrong decisions. Michael Crichton wrote a book called Timelime a few years before he died that was very interesting. Yes , there was a movie adaptation . No, it's not good or really faithful to the book at all so don't judge this from that movie .Definitely would recommend you read the book though. This is actually possible(in theory) & though not technically time travel it may be the closest thing to it that humans might have a shot at achieving one day.
I love how one half of these is "okay I know time travel isn't real, but wouldn't it be crazy if it was?" and the other half is just quantum mechanics
Plus total crap.
Like the information/black hole nonsense. This "law" seems pretty arbitrary.
I shouldn't say nonsense. I am typing on a phone built using science I don't understand.
@@jeremyanderson3819 Well okay, that one is actually pretty legitimate. But it's not really a paradox, it just tells us that we don't really know a whole lot about black holes.
Misinterpreted quantum mechanics at that
Apparently the human brain is a wee bit narcissistic
I am shocked!

True, yet humanity is more concerned about killing themselves and using each other for personal gain than exploring the galaxy’s playground.
No wonder aliens couldn’t care about us.... it is said if intelligent life exists and they where extinct then we found it it’s a bad thing. I think intelligent life has a natural means of killing each other and urge to be if it themselves.
@@king_vasuki2692 I like you. Good words my friend.
I'm 50 years old and remember being in school was told about the universe and the big bang and figured we as humans were approaching the end of the line in science and human technology.
Little did I know we're not even scratching the surface of knowledge there is to know...
now it turns out, the universe is accelerating its expansion, there's some dark matter and energy we can't measure or describe. The universe of the small seems to be getting smaller by the minute, and nanotechnology is not even completely understood, neither the true nature of our surroundings...
We humans are stubbornly destined for nonstop surprises in our quest to find out what is this thing we call the universe
As we learn more and more about our universe and our place in it the more scarier and more thoughts we have to keep us up at night. People from 100 years ago had nowhere near the same thoughts that are on peoples minds today. In fact it’s entirely different because back then they didn’t think about Climate Change. Large Asteroids, gamma ray bursts, rogue/dormant black holes etc.. what will be some of the biggest fears 100 years from now? It’s a scary thought.
@@TnerB91 honestly, I think once we see the birth of AI here on earth, that will probably take over and then spread out throughout the galaxy.

What always bugs me is just because a planet isn't habitable for life on earth doesn't mean other kind of life froms can't or don't exist on them
Yes exactly! Humans have evolved on this planet with other micro-organisms like water bears, water bears have the ability to survive pretty much anything including the vacuum of space. Now think about it Earth quite possibly the safest planet in the milkyway maybe the whole universe yet the waterbears have evolved on this planet (evolved might be the wrong term) now imagine a planet like mars or even deadlier across the universe imagine the vast ability’s of them. The universe is so huge that I can put it into words.
It would be stupid to assume that there isn’t life out there in this huge place. Maybe if your religious or believe we have a purpose then thats fine.
Sorry this just keeps me up xd
@@joshirelax1071 yeah no I agree , like for example we can't breath under water therefore basically we can't live there , yet with technology we can explore there for some time , just like marine life can survive in water but not on land , what's to stop the same from happening with different planets you know
@@tiaanbotes2645 yeh
Right ! Some dude on the news was like no there’s no life on other planets shows how much lack of intelligence they really have when it took us billions of years just for a cell phone
There's a quite simple answet for that question.
If you go to a super market you've never been to, looking for an apple. You could search in the toilette paper aile and the freezers. There is a possibility you might find an apple. But most likely you will find an apple with all the other fruits.
We know for sure, that on a planet like ours life can evolve. So it makes sense to search for life on earthlike planets, rather then on any random possiblr planet out there.
Hope thats helpfull. 🤙
Time is merely an idea which happens to be very useful as a form of measurement and it’s not even consistent across the universe but it helps us keep track and organize so many things.
That reminds me, I'm late for work!
It's funny that you say time is an idea. If there is a single thing that it's clear that exists outside our brain that we are aware of, that is time. It's like "I think ergo I exist", but actually correct: that "I" is ambiguous because we don't fully know the nature of ourselves. But that doesn't happen with change. If we perceive that things change, something MUST be changing. Probably not what we perceive, probably not as we think it changes, but definitely something changes. Whether it's just "movement" or an alteration of a state. Because if there were no changes at all in the universe, the phenomenon of us perceiving anything would not be possible. The only thing that we can be sure of is that change exists. Time exists.
@JustDoIt12131 Would it then be right to say that time as we call it only exists because we observe change? Change is constant of course, but we have to label and characterize it somehow to place it in our reality. Isn't that where the idea of time itself originates?
Time to me, Is something us humans created to understand where we belong in"time" I believe the cosmos has no time. No beginning and no end. Meaning space has not a beginning and if it doesn't have a beginning it can't have an end. Literally "forever"!
@@Jeff-fd8sc No, time doesn't only exist because we observe change. It's the other way around: we observe it because it exists. Time and change is the same thing.
I recall an old Star Trek episode that had a sentient creature called the Horta. It was a silicone based rock creature that did not show up on their scanners. Basically a living rock with intelligence, protecting her eggs. Made me think at the time of all the possibilities in the cosmos. Growing up in the 60's and 70's, this was mind blowing.
I remember that one. They blamed to killing a few crew while they killed a thousand of her eggs. Made me contemplate mans morale and how we presumed to have greater conscience than other simple species.
@@shyamganeshiar oh yeah I remember that as well. Ages ago I used to play a kind of popular computer game, starflight, it became sort of famous in gaming because it was like one of the first big open-ended things where you could choose your own path. The big ending to the game was a story of how the fuel that that particular part of the Galaxy uses was actually an ancient being that began causing suns to go into supernova because everyone was using it to power their ships lol. Pretty sure that's how it went
Stargate did it too with blue shapeshifting energy crystals in the sand

that's true but also we have hardly looked anywhere yet.

“Problems that remain persistently insoluble should always be suspected as questions asked in the wrong way” - Alan Watts
the biggest paradox is life itself lmao
The problem with that fancy new telescope too is that even if we can look at the surface of a planet on the other side of the milky way for example, that light or image we see is technically that planet in the past because it took so long for the light to reach us. Depending on how far away the planet is it could be 100s of thousands of years in the past and maybe life is blooming on that planet, we just can't see it yet.
and the aliens might have the exact same problem, they se earth but it looks like it did before the dinosaurs, just a vulcanic planet whit no possibilty to sustain life. so for us to find a planet that actualy have life on it, we need to be able to find a planet that is 100 times older than earth that has had life on it for biljons of years or so.
Ahhh yeah shit!! So it's a complete waste of money then!!, have you had the chance to let each of the space agencies know what they have missed?
@@dynamo0255 is your statement sarcastic?
We are only seeing the past in "the present". Wild!
We might detect life and somehow develop a method of travel to go places nearly instantaneously and when we get there they'll already be extinct. We'll find some preserved records of them looking at earth before life arose and deciding to just not go there.
I think it’s interesting that we always look at possible alien forms as “head, torso, 2 legs and 2 arms”. Nose, big eyes and mouth.
If the universe is so big, the ways forms of life could present itself is also numerous. The chances of extraterrestrial life looking familiar is slim.
We based aliens on humanoid like figures cause that’s all we know, what if they evolved from different chemical compounds that aren’t carbon based, like how ufo sightings don’t have emission like how our jets use fire based engines, maybe they don’t need something like that due to how they’re tech is made.
If aliens exist they look like ants.
I totally agree with this 👌

And the fact that they assume we can see these beings too.. what if we can’t see each other

@@MissionaryForMexico As far as we know. See the problem with us is that we tend to look at everthing in "absolutes", based off of our own experiences, calculations and assumptions.. yet the very foundations of science are built out of theories. You can't quantify a "feeling", that doesn't mean it doesn't exist right. Same goes for life forms, we may not even being able to fathom the existence of certain beings at this point because they don't fit our own scientitific ideologies. Got to keep an open mind ✌️

I have always had a big problem with the concept of time travel. And it isn’t the traveling part that’s an issue.
Let’s say it’s a given that we can now travel through time. The real problem isn’t WHEN we “land”, it’s WHERE we “land”. In movies, they always assume the point that you’re standing on the earth is the constant. But in order to successfully time travel, you need to calculate exactly what point in the UNIVERSE you will re-appear.
Considering the earth is rotating at something like 1600 km/hour at the equator, and rotating around the sun at 107,000km/hour,and the solar system is moving about 700,000km/hour. Plus the galaxy is shooting through space. In order to do a simple time jump of, say, 10 minutes into the future, you’ll need to calculate the exact point in the universe where your feet will be 10 minutes from now.
And it’s not a straight line, it’s a complex, spiraling, corkscrew path through space. And suppose your math is off by a few feet/a meter, you could arrive half buried in the ground, or floating in the air, or inside a tree, or any number of other gruesome possibilities. The calculations would be all but impossible.
Unless you are time traveling by magic. Then I have no argument.
Oh yeah, I've seen books where this idea got explored in some effect. :D Relative motion is a lot faster than anyone thinks it is. :D
Big brain
You're not taking into account that space and time are one and the same.
@@jwil4905 ok, but...... how does that affect the equations?
This is something I've had issue with since I watched the Time Tunnel in the 60's as a kid. The 2 travelers always fell right on the top deck of the Titanic (instead of say in the engine boiler or the middle of an ocean) or in the cow barn genesis of the Chicago fire, and they even did this separately finding themselves in the exact same place, all purely by coincidence. Too many artistic liberties, all for entertainment value of course, but it got me thinking about this topic.
A couple of these, I feel, could be solved if the time traveler is willing to stay in the past and start their life over.
Forced* not willing
Yeah right
Must compensate for the substance/energy equilibrium within the temporal medium
as it says if one can time travel then it should be able to come back so that is not the point here, point is , is that a new reality on a new time line to which then he said that some physicsts have come with solution to send trajectry from future so that this travel in past and back to present can be done via the same wire(timeline) hence remaining in the same timeline.
I’ll do it.

The scariest part is dolphins can wreak havoc day and night without sleeping. A recent study found that dolphins could stay awake for five days straight with no loss of mental acuity. The dolphins didn’t even need to make up sleep at the end of the study, though the scientists sure did.

I am a physicist and I wish I hadn't found this video. This is the classic example of why physicists HATE media who is just bothered about making things sound fancy without even a shred of proper interpretation in them. Each and every one of the paradoxes mentioned here is so badly represented and I feel like killing the creator for murdering physics. Not to mention some of these are not even paradoxes, they're just laws which the person didn't bother to read.
Im not a physicist, but I couldn’t agree with you more.
Don’t even get me started mate. It is complete utter asinine and disrespectful to science to misrepresent this information. If anybody wants to be a science communicator, they should at least be able to explain theoretical or known phenomena like a scientist. This channel fails to do so.
I suggest you look at the channel “Cool Worlds”, your thirst for actual scientific knowledge will most likely be quenched if you do so! Stay curious my friend!
"And... the... old... fashioned... TV style... sing-song... vocal performance..." has a kids show cadence that makes me want to scream a little bit.
can u recommend me some channels with some actual knowledge? I kinda wanna get into this stuf but don’t wanna be led down the wrong path
This by far has been one of the better videos made. I hope eventually some one makes a video explaining each one of these to a t so that people that haven't researched these can understand what this person is talking about in each paradox situation
I'm sure there are probably dozens of videos explaining in detail every one of the topics covered in this video, one just has to be interested enough to look for them.
0:39 when you said “a lot of you might be familiar with the Fermi paradox” I ask people that same question and not one of them knew or heard about it
We haven’t been contacted by aliens for one of several reasons.
1. Any civilization who is advanced enough for interstellar travel has also developed technology of mass destruction and destroyed itself (like we will)
2. Any civilization advanced enough for interstellar travel recognizes that humans lack the intelligence and foresight to be a multi planetary society.
3. They simply haven’t discovered we exist yet and will find us eventually
4. There are other civilizations but they are actually less evolved than ours and have yet to develop space travel
5. The most horrifying of the options. We actually are alone and intelligent life has yet to evolve elsewhere.
I assume you’re talking about the Fermi Paradox, though I haven’t gotten to that part of the video yet. The Fermi Paradox has so many assumptions that it’s laughable. Everything about it is explainable.
@Kingy Aliens watch our planet as a TV show.
All races and animals not getting along, war, covid and Trump makes for great interstellar TV haha
You're fun at parties.
@Kingy the #6 you came up with is already encompassed in #2
You're watching too many Holywood alien invasion movies assuming that an intelligent species would evolve in a manner that would seek to destroy each other (such as we do currently). These civilisations are here and are actually doing the opposite: Making sure we do not destroy ourselves - as they have advanced enough to realise their mistakes. Evolution doesn't always have to result in destruction of ourselves therefore there will always be so many possibilities of life out there that not everyone of them will destroy themselves.

There may be a flaw with schrodinger's cat paradox. The scientists are assuming that the cat won't interfere with anything inside the box. The cat is unpredictable.
your missing the point and the paradox, my guy
I also think scientists are assuming that the cat won’t interfere with anything inside the box. The cat is unpredictable and may try to escape, scratch the box, or tamper with the apparatus.
This may affect the outcome of the experiment and invalidate the premise of the paradox.
In fact, some interpretations of quantum mechanics suggest that any interaction or observation, even by the cat itself, could collapse the superposition and determine the fate of the cat.
The Von Neumann-Wigner interpretation does talk about this. The cat's state was already determined before the observation; it's just that we didn't know until we looked. I could be wrong though

For the longest time, I've had a problem with the Schrodingers cat experiment. It seems to me to just be a tautology -- you don't know something until you know it. Of course the cat is not both alive and dead just because you don't know which it is.
I'm writing this either at my kitchen table or the desk in my office. Since you don't know which, does that mean I'm in both places?

I’ve heard it said that time doesn’t really exist, it’s something we invented to give us familiar reference points. But then how do you explain aging? Everything gets older. So time must then exist? But what time is it in the void of space? So time only exists on planets, and only on planets with intelligent life? But that supports the idea that time is only an arbitrary reference point that doesn’t really exist. And how would this affect “time travel?” How could we “go back in time” if it doesn’t really exist? And where is/was the starting point of time? If there’s no universally agreed upon starting point, how do we calibrate it for time travel? And whose clock do we use and how/when was it calibrated and is it completely accurate over multiple millennia? And what about “leap year,” times zones and daylight savings time? I need these answers by tomorrow.
This video was incredibly informative, I'm impressed!

I Love How the Thumbnails Never Have Anything to Do with the Video
The problem with time travel is that you have to go back to the exact location of earth in space at the date and time you wish to travel to. Seeing how the gallery is moving and your solar system is moving with in that and the earth with in that. Pin pointing the exact location and getting to the location in space is just a challenging as figuring out how to go back in time once you get there.
Lets suppose a civilization is advanced enough to figure out how to travel in time.
I think it would be advanced enough to solve that problem as well.
I dont even think it would be that hard (in relation to traveling through time in the first place anyway) as all it requires is enough computing power to calculate all that.
@@EroSensei0 But think of the precision you would need. One meter off and you materialize inside the surface of the Earth.
modern mathematics is capable of that and so much more
i believe time travel to the future is able to be done only if going the speed of light, but there’s honestly no way to go back to the past to change what happened

I lived in a rural neighborhood in the forest in northern AZ as a teen and went on many hikes in the forest. To find artifacts left over from the native or wild west cowboy camps I would have to dig down to find them because they were buried from time passing. Trees dropping pine needles, wind blowing dirt, rain burying things in mud, etc.. I would clear rocks off the area before digging down to find the artifacts. If the artifacts are from the past 150 years or so, why are rocks that are millions of years old sitting on top of the ground above them? Many too big to have been blown there by the wind. Shouldn't the rocks have long been buried in time? I would find large and small chunks of petrified wood sitting openly on the forest floor, even though it's surrounded by pine trees. Shouldn't it have been buried under pine needles and everything, given how old it is? Some you would think someone just put there a week ago. How are so many rocks that are millions of years old sitting openly on the top of the ground, above things that nature buried in the past 100 or so years? Not really a paradox but something I used to wonder as a teenager.
It is possible that the Younger Dryas impact event very suddenly melted half of the world's glaciers very abruptly. The ensuing flood in your area was a literal ocean of water pouring down southward, tearing up the entire landscape, washing away entire geological strata, exposing very old features.

We're not smart, we just have the ability to manipulate our environment more than any other creature. For the good or bad (mostly bad).
But u missed the whole point.we got millions of other planets to destroy at our disposal. All we need is a way to bend space time and travel in it
This is not in any way a paradox.

This is not a paradox, but an irony.
Most of the times when we talk about extraterrestrial life we tend to focus on planets which have similar living conditions as that of earth but that will only stand when we are looking for extraterrestrial life that is similar to ours. There could be other life forms which could function normally in a sulphur rich atmosphere or with winds at 5.4k mph and in that case even bacteria found in another planet are actually aliens.
bacteria from another planet could also wipe us out easily as we'd have no built-up immunity to it. This is the same in reverse i.e. us bringing extinction-level diseases to other planets that to us wouldn't even cause a cold, which is an actual concern of NASA's
That in and of itself could be a paradox. Our instincts and experiences as a species is limited to only earth. It's like what they say about people you see in dreams. You are unable to make up a face, any faces that you dream of will be someone you've seen even in passing. Same idea can be applied here, we are unable to think of another form of life that doesn't share our similarities and environments. Everything we think up of will have a resemblance of either a human, an animal, an insect, bacteria etc, even if you think of a floating white orb, that's how most civilizations perceive souls. So it really can't be answered until we meet something like that. One thing we can maybe say is that advanced civilizations could transcend into a mechanically immortal life, existing as a program or some sort of technology. Even that is ideas from our own species, we are not capable of thinking outside the solar system sort to speak lol.
@@Anten-Isy I get what you mean, but we know for a fact that the universe consists of a finite set of elements that we understand the properties of quite well. If you assume life to be reasonably complex, you need a building block (life as we know it is carbon based for example) from which it is based. Only so many elements / molecules provide the characteristic to be a building block (carbon is tetravalent which means it can bond to 4 atoms at once). Energy needs to be absorbed and emitted in certain ways as well, so I'm sure scientists are looking from a more general perspective such as "what is producing these odd energy patterns, it could be life", rather than looking for a planet that specifically looks like Earth. Carbon and silicon can form solid structures within a certain temperature range for example, so they probably look out for factors such as that. I still agree with the fact we have no idea what alien life might look like, but at the end of the day it is still bound by the same chemical and physical laws of the universe that we are.
As a theist, I consider the creator and the creatures described as angels as extraterrestrials and don't have that feeling that we might be alone. But I certainly can understand how one might feel if the existence of aliens depended on abiogenesis followed by evolution.
What would even be the point of finding bacteria on another planet? Obv ppl wanna find other life LIKE US
There is no doubt about Parallel universes. If you decide one thing on the other, you get to see a different universe from your POV. For humans, there is always a choice.
For bootstrap paradox the possible answer will be creating branch in the timeline, when you give the book to the past man you are creating a branch timeline.
Same applies to grandfather paradox.
still who actually wrote hamlet?
The fermi paradox is based on the assumption that other "advanced civilizations" would also be willing to expolit and destroy thier planets to build the technology we are looking for to prove thier existence. There is absolutely no logical reason for this assumption. Not every creature is as short sighted as the human species.
and it assumes the smallest chance for each variable, and that is also unlikely
Not to mention that even if there were other civilizations similar to us, looking for life and possibly having the technology, they could have died out million of years ago. They could be so far away, even within our galaxy, that traveling here would be impractical. Like us wanting to send a mission to Alpha Centauri. It's only 4.4 light years away, but it would still take us 6,633 years to get there at our current fastest speed of 450,000 MPH. And even if they knew we were here and just wanted to send us a message, depending on where they are in the galaxy, even that could take thousands of years to get here. It's a false paradox imo. It's the equivalency of some remote tribe 10,000 years ago thinking "We must be alone on this planet, other wise, where are the people??"
Unless it is you who are short sighted and other civilizations don't see it as "exploit and destroy" rather doing what is necessary to gather the resources for expansion.

I think when it comes to intelligent life in the Galaxy it's more about when instead of where. I have a feeling that advanced civilizations flicker in and out of existence...
TH-cam has a video that highlights the robustness of life in the universe as only a very small part of its overall time line. Like akin to only a few seconds in the life of a human.
Could be. The numbers are so vast though - so inconceivably vast that the sheer statistical odds is that many thousands of civilizations have continued - maybe in ways hard to imagine. Perhaps they disappear into their machines - occupying virtual spaces instead of actual ones. Maybe physical biology is just a baby step of the evolution of intelligence. There is so much we don’t know it’s difficult to even frame the questions. It truly is mind boggling.
Kevin Brooks that's interesting . Once you wrap your brain around the incomprehensible size of the known universe & the time frames involved its an idea that's started to gain some traction in recent years. You know there's really only a couple of movies that takes this concept & runs with it & that's Forbidden Planet & the original Alien especially but just as a standalone film without considering the prequels at all. What essentially happened is that ship really just stumbles into a scene from some kind of cosmic nightmare that is supposed to have played itself out a long, long time ago. Unfortunately for the crew of that ship one small piece of that nightmare is still alive. Finding the remnant of some long dead civilization is, in many ways, more realistic than straight contact and Alien really capitalizes on that fear of the unknown factor better than anything still out there
The other thing is we search for signs of our life and technology. An advanced civilization could use a totally different system we don't have the technology to detect. Not to mention when it comes to the universe distance is the biggest problem. Who knows 200 years ago maybe we were getting signals from a civilization that took millions of years to reach but the planet is long dead.
I find that double slit paradox to be most intriguing among all of these
There is a time travel paradox that it seems no one ever covers. It begs the question ... Can you travel into the future and meet your older self? You know that unless you die, you will become older at some future date, and if time travel should be possible it seems to be a reasonable thing to do. But what if you decide to never return to your initial time of travel? How can you ever become the age you expect to meet at that future time? Yes, you can go back (if this sort of travel ever exists) but you don't have to.
I wish my younger self could visit me now (age 78). I could warn my younger self of all the stupid things I did and try to convince younger me to be smarter. Would I then wake up in a different situation - because of the better decisions my younger self made - because of the warnings? I wish.
You know it's weird to me that people are so willing to examine the Fermi paradox before we even have a full replicable understanding of how cellular life forms from basic elements. Resolving the latter confusion is irrevocably essential to resolving the former confusion.

Love this. So accurately, eloquently presented, I've often had similar reasoning.
Damn bruv I didn’t understand 80% of that, do u read the dictionary before bed or something?
@@vola7342 I bet he reads 2 for good measure
Well I don't really think so. It's like psychology and let's say geology. Together they all make humanity but they are both fields of study that have nothing to do with eachother. We were able to build a floating laboratory/city in space before we explored 20% of our own ocean. We put men on the moon before we realized that smoking kills people. Alien life more likely than not will share nothing of our own physiology, so technically we could advance on the second confusion without touching the first one. If you want to look at everything in the lense of biology then yea technically we need to figure out how cellular life forms so we can expand our knowledge about what the possibilities of life forms are, but without first meeting something from out there we would have nothing to work on, only theories which without evidence wouldn't stand. There is a moral question in your example however, should resources be allocated to studies which don't really give any real benefit when we could allocate it to research and development of technology or medicine that is useful for the betterment of society. Isn't it a little cocky that we dip our feet in space before we get our life expectancy to atleast an 80 everywhere ? So your point stands in a moral/ethical light but scientifically it shouldn't interfere one and other.

The paradox is much more basic:

Countering the Fermi paradox, if you look at the time line of the earth's existence and specificaly the total period of time that human life has existed on earth, it is a tiny blip in time over the time line of the existence of our universe.
So potentially we may have came to existence after other intelligent life ceased to ocupy our local area of the universe, or other intelligent life may not be evolved yet locally to us, given how big the period of time the universe has existed so far and likely to continue.
The Fermi paradox is like the Drake equation. Since there is only a single planet we know of with life on it, any other numbers we use in our formulas become an example of GIGO
A point mostly overseen is that Schrödinger was not a supporter of quantum physics. He thought of them as ridiculous, and his experiment was made to mock Quantum theory in a evenly ridiculous way (since the cat will be dead or not, depending on coincidence, not on a quantom observer (this one belongs to the double slit experiment).
I'm higher secondary student and studied about light and it connects to schordingers theory .
Light can be Ray , Wave or partical as you observe it .
Normally light appear as a ray like it reflect and refract .
In YDSE ( Young's double slit Experiment ) it behave like wave , show interference by fringes .
And in Photoelectric effect the classical wave theory fails and give rise to it's partical nature and also give idea to dual nature of matter

A paradox is usually an indicator that the underlying argument (or observation) is faulty. For example:
1. Time Travel paradoxes (Grandfather, bootstrap, etc.) are all based on the assumption that we can travel backwards in time in the same space/time continuum. This is false simply because light cannot move backwards through space/time (a la Christopher Nolan's Tenet). You can travel (theoretically) to a parallel universe where the time is different (say a parallel universe where 1951 is the current year), but you cannot travel back to 1951 in this universe. This is theoretically possible if you were a 5th-dimensional being, or managed to build a machine that can travel through the 5th dimension to another, parallel 4th-dimensional timeline where it is 1951 and another version of your grandparents lived. So if you killed that grandfather in that parallel 1951, it would have no bearing on your existence in your original timeline, where the current year is 2021.
2. The Fermi Paradox is more of an argument from arrogance that assumes that all extraterrestrial life will have the same dimensions, evolutionary history, communication style, morphology, or even recognizability as life as we know it. We only recognize carbon based life forms, but wouldn't know how to recognize life from other sources. The universe is big enough for a silicon based lifeform to exist, for example. The Fermi Paradox is just as silly as an ant assuming that no higher order intelligence exists because it is too small to detect the existence of humans, or even larger animals that live in the ocean like blue whales. Alien life more than likely exists. However, perhaps they are much more primitive than us (maybe they're in their stone age as we speak) or perhaps exist in such a higher order of reality that we are as inconsequential as bacteria to them. In the latter case, they've probably been here so often, that we might live in an intergalactic zoo and not even realize it.
3. Theoretical paradoxes (Polchinski, Schrödinger/Observer, Black Hole Information) are not based on observable phenomena, but rather serve as thought experiments to elucidate flaws in our mathematical models of the universe. They are a way of saying "our math is wrong, because it also suggests that this silly thing (i.e. the paradox) is possible". Schrödinger's paradox is a way of showing that our understanding of quantum physics is incomplete. Polchinski's paradox shows that we don't understand the physics inside a singularity. The black hole information paradox showed that Stephen Hawking's mathematical model of black holes (at the time) was incomplete (see "Hawking Radiation").
Whenever you run into a paradox, always remember that it's not an indicator that there's something wrong with the universe. Rather, it's an indicator that there's something wrong with OUR understanding of the universe.
I have one thing to say about you take on the fermi paradox. we are, for all intents and purposes, the highest order of intelligence possible due simply to the fact that we can contemplate higher orders of intelligence. an ant doesn't think of possible higher beings yet there are. the very fact that we can conceive of a higher being proves there isn't. if there was, it would be so impossible to contemplate that we would never in all of out history come close to it, just as the ant will never come close to us. so since we can't contemplate a higher order of intelligence, there's isn't a point in trying, as it would be entirely beyond our reference frame. I know I did a poor job of explaining this so I can elaborate if you want. Your takes on these paradoxes is really cool, mind if I use them?
All physical existence is an illusion we are just waves of energy and waves can travel wherever they want.
I believe that time travel is possible and in this "one and only universe." In the Bible there's a book called Revelation which was written by a man named John who was caught up by God into the future and then returned again. Not here to debate the validity of the Bible just merely pointing to where I am coming from. God is not a "supernatural" being, meaning a being who can defy what is possible. For example God cannot create a round square. Words have meanings and this would defy what is logically possible. God instead is the Supreme being, meaning He is above all and over all. He can do anything that is logically possible even if it is not possible (or impossible) for us to do. If He can transport someone through time this means its possible. The problem with time travel that most people struggle with is they ask the wrong question. They make the assumption that traveling back in time would mean we would change time. The wrong question is "what if I did this?" This is illogical because we are talking about the past. The correct question is "did I do this?" Take for example the Hitler paradox. If you have a real time machine available and ask "what if I go back and kill Hitler as a boy?" You have just asked the wrong question because "if you did" you wouldn't even know who Hitler was. The very fact that you can still read about him in history books is evidence that any attempt you make to travel back and kill him will (I mean did) fail. You might ask "what if I go back and accidently cause the Hindenburg to explode?" You can look in the history books and see that it "did" explode and conclude that you did it and you were responsible even though you haven't left yet. However if you actually were the cause, and you decided not to go back, you can still look in the history books and conclude that some yet unseen chain of events in the future will cause you to go back and still cause the explosion.
@@jesuscross9 Also i think time travel is impossible due to many reasons but the main one being that is goes against the Natural Laws of the Universe which God has written. You see if God allowed travelling to the past, that would have an enormous potential for a certain species that could achieve such technology to have the possibility of destroying galaxies, species, etc, and potentially mess up with the whole evolutionary process of the Universe, one that God has put into place himself. You see if God created us intelligent species called humans, the only one we know to habit the planet Earth with the necessary intelligence to protect it (something i believe is our meaning in this planet since every species on this planet has a purpose on it , like plants make us breath, animals fertilize the soil, etc, believe ours is to protect the Earth from potential space threats and who knows even maybe educate inteligent species on other planets to help them evolve there and protect life there. Because life is in fact the Ultimate chaotic perfect creation that God has put forth, and through the process of Evolution he makes sure that the species who best adapt to Nature are the ones who eventually propagate and continue the cicle of creation here on Earth. Evolution is a critical process from which Nature selects the best candidates to protect it and if someone trough the means of time travel were able to disrupt such a process it could have critical consequences on the subsequent development of the Universe as a whole, and therefore potentially ruining his most precious creation. So no, I don't believe God allows us to travel into the past, HOWEVER, it can be possible that He can somehow allow us to see certain events in the future as a means of ensuring that the Evolutionary process of an inteligent species can suceed, like aiding it, but not making sure it happens, just aiding it to see if the species can truly become what it is meant to become.
@@jesuscross9 you're going off a different theory of time travel I don't remember the name but the premise is tome simply won't allow you to change it and like if you go back and kill Hitler another person would take his place, it wouldn't work like you said. Time would have to go through a correction. So once you went In the past and did said act of saving Hitler only then would the time line be altered and you would start to forget who and what he's done and remember another name of who took his place. Or what he said where we split into alternate time lines or worlds based on every major action only caused by those actions meaning that we are one a singular linear time line and until time travel happens it cannot split off so the first time traveller will cause the first split of reality. Is this possible to split reality in such a way? Idk.

Thank you so very very much for everything you do.
At 9.10 timeline how is the observation done / performed or what is meant by observing the photon? and what is the process of not observing it and recording the process?
The Hitler Paradox can be solved in this way: Your knowledge of something is not dependent on its actuality i.e. just because something is in your head doesn't mean it necessarily happened. On this basis, killing Hitler would erase the reason to do so in history but it wouldn't erase the reason in your mind. The notion that changing history changes your mind, assumes that you only have historically accurate things in your mind, which we know is false because we have all believed in things that are not true before. Basically, you would know the reason even if you eliminated the justification of that reason.
One problem with communication over interstellar distances is just that. The time it takes for radio signals to travel from one star to even the nearest makes it very impractical. Also, the ability to detect signals that have dispersed through space and over the inference in space makes it exceptionally difficult. Look at the Viking probes. If we didn't know they were there and exactly where to point our radio dishes it would be virtually impossible to detect their weak signals. Most civilizations out there probably use some focused beam tech to communicate which would make it almost impossible to intercept unless you happen to pass through the beam. So unless they come to our planet, it's unlikely we could ever find them by looking for random radio signals.
This is a problem for us and our tools... what if some aliens have a completely new way of comminucation, a 3 thing. That we can't wrap our minds around

A sad example of this is there was a signal received that translated to a distress call for help from a very distant star that went supernova. However, it was already too late by the time it was received and there was nothing we could have done as this star was millions of lightyears away and although the supernova was viewable from Earth, it took just as long for the light from the supernova to travel for it to be seen from Earth. The distress call did come first before the supernova was observed happening but, even if we wanted to help, it was already too late because of the distance.

Many of these are the exact same paradox expressed with different stories/scenarios to explain the elements. The root of the paradox is "just how does time work" to which much of science is preoccupied with figuring out, breeding hundreds of thousands of interesting questions.
Time is just another physical spacial dimension. It is pretty simple to understand. I can say scientists already know this, for a good while now. It is just regular society who still is uneducated about it.
@@fernandomartinez4486 sadly this is objectively untrue.
At any point in history scientists largely believed they understood time so the changing information proves they did not. When mankind genuinely has a solid understanding of new knowledge, it empowers man to do things they couldn't do before.
The existence of these paradoxical questions and man's lack of empowerment to do anything new with time, demonstrates that scientists do not yet have a good understanding of how time works.
@@fernandomartinez4486 You couldn't be more wrong.
I love when people make definitive comments about things like black holes, things that only theoretically exist.
The question that I want to ask is, how is this any different than making a definitive comment about God.
In both cases we cannot observe or prove the definitive comment that we are making. What scientists fail to realize is science actually has a greater number of gods than Christianity does. In Christianity there's always just one explanation.
Science has multiple gods, the Big bang, dark matter, dark energy, black holes, multiple dimensions, alternate universes. These are just sciencey words that show faith in something that cannot be proven.
Can you prove the Christianity God does not exist?
Moreover, can you prove our existence isn't just a fragment of a day dream of a telephone operator from 1978?

How to save someone life without creating a paradox in time?
Lets assume that we travel into the past (lets say 5 years) so save someones life that died 5 years ago.
How can you save that persons life without creating a paradox in time?
Stupid as it may sound, its very simple:
Save that persons life, without letting anyone know that they didnt die.
The events traveling their death have to transpire the same way, and the person has to remain "dead" until you reach the point in time you travelled back from.
After that the person can reveal themselves as everything hence forth wouldn't create a paradox anymore, because you never reached that point in time before travelling back in time and up until then, everything had remained the same as you have known.
you could either simply bring the person "back to the future" which would be the most failsafe way of doing things without creating a paradox, or make sure they dont effect the timeline in any way during the time of their supposed death.
As long as the records stay the same up until the moment of time traveled back from, nothing changes.
this sounds logical to me anyway.
However, there is one good counter argument though:
Time is not owned by humans, meaning, just because we dont know about something happening or not, doesn't mean the universe isn't aware (as stupid as it may sound)
The person that died in the original timeline did not disappear from the universe.
the particles the person was made of still remain in the original timeline and in one way or another effect the original timeline, as minuscule as it may be.
and the absence of that effect of the timeline may cause a paradox in itself.
... or not, who knows.
this shit is so complicated, ill go watch some mark wahlberg movie
It’s valid …Only if the person was dead somewhere where you was never find.
Like that when you save the dead person the things will happen as it has always happened.

the way we preceive the world is not based on our reasoning, it is based on senses. Read about the molyneux problem.
The human eye reflects light in such a way that we can observe whats in our surroundings. Perhaps when that happens is the cause of changing the outcome of photons transformation.
One thing is for sure. Once we find out even one answer from these questions, it will change our outlook on life as we know it.
I'm sure I just don't understand it, but I dont see how not knowing if a cat is alive or dead affects the state of the cat. If I flip a coin and the coin lands on the counter and I cover it with an opaque material without looking at it, the coin is still either on heads OR tails, irrespective of its statistical probability before the coin was tossed, or my knowledge of the result.
This is a better definition of shrodinger or whatever his name is
It doesn't affect it and can't. The so called paradox is childish. Just because we don't know, it doesn't make it a paradox. If my friend lives half way round the world, I have no contact with them for a year so don't know if he/she is dead or alive, it's not a paradox, I just don't know!
All paradox are are simply our inability to comprehend, failures in our understanding.
Fact would not include any paradox.
We invent paradoxes! Is time travel even real? Yet we invent a paradox on something not based in fact but mathematical equations, human constructions!
The only valid paradox here is the double slit and like the others I think it's due to our limited/false understanding.
9:11 i think that by observing which slit the light passes through changes the outcome of which has already happened. Because in order for someone to see or observe anything with your eyes light has to bounce off this object and you then see the outcome of whatever. But when you set up a photo/observing device close to the slit the light (particles and waves) has to not just go through the slit but also the observation device. Therefore adding another obstacle and completely changing said events that where supposed to occur.
