Both these men make the universe not only more interesting; They make it a much, much better place. At least they make my appreciation for it that much greater. As much as 2020 has brought us all (or many) a lot of hardship, to have these episodes as an escape -- and to open a portal from our downsized, pandemic-afflicted lives into the universe beyond -- is about as incredible a gift as we could ask for.

I have a question relating to Earth's magnetic polar shift. Or more specifically, the weakening of the magnetic field. Since the field is generated by the flow of nickel and iron in the earth's core, could a massive reservoir of magma building closer to the surface cause a fluctuation in said field. My thought is that perhaps the slower moving magma collecting in a generalized area, like central South America, could slow the surrounding field or possibly push it away through like magnetism. I'm probably completely wrong in all of this but it has been stirring in my mind. I've taken interest in both super volcanoes and the earth's magnetic shift recently. As I researched I noticed how closely the weakened field was to three powerful volcanoes in South America. This is what sparked the idea.
Appreciate hearing chuck not be scared to talk out his ideas about these topics from a lay person learning and having their minds blown and stretched!! Also, if there is a law of physics that prevents going back in time and changing previous events would infer that consciousness was a part of the universe before it evolved from us
Hi Neil and Chuck, how you doing? Hope you're great! I really wanted to know how great scientists nowadays discovered, back in their times when they were kids and teens, the experiments and projects they say they did. In example: Neil said he made his own telescope and went to Africa just to see an eclipse. Michiu Kaku said he built his own particle accelerator. It doesn't need to be famous scientists: one day, a guy from the internet said in a comment to Star Talk that when he was a kid, he almost exploded his house with a chemistry experiment. When I google for these cool things I can only find super simple things like: put some oil on top of water in a cup and you'll see the don't mixture, wow...
SIR,I LOVE THE WAY YOU SEE THINGS. I RESPECT YOU AND SCIENCE WITH ALL MY HEART. I WISH THE WORLD GETS MORE PEOPLE WHO ARE DIFFERENT THAN YOU BUT ARE ENTHUSIASTIC LIKE YOU ABOUT SCIENCE.
I hope you see this question! I need an answer XD What if dark Matt is matter from a exact mirror universe that's completely flipped having everything exactly the same, only thing that would be able to interact is gravity. And what if the matter in the universe is actually matter in the universe were shot over from the mirror copy in the Extreme situation of the big bang (Might be whe a slight imbalance in matter and anti matter existed) Ps Love star talk and you're a massive inspiration in the way i look at life and the universe
I would love to have the knowledge you have about the universe, I wonder how you see the world (and life) from that prespective. I think that would help many depressed people just to have that knowledge and focus on that
It’s great! I have an insatiable borderline obsession with understanding the universe in which we find ourselves. And building upon that! I can go on for days but this comments a year old so I see no reason to. I hope you’ve acquired some of this knowledge in which you were seeking!
14:00 - If you see you're heading towards a black hole, it is a bad idea to try to back away, because it takes a lot of fuel to come to a stop and head in the opposite direction. You need to accelerate in the perpendicular direction so that you miss it. That takes far less fuel. It is much the same as on a highway; it is a lot easier to steer around an obstacle than to come to a complete stop.
Love you guys, blessed to listen everyday while I work. Belt fed is...An ammunition belt is a firearm device used to package and feed cartridges, typically for rapid-firing automatic weapons such as machine guns.
And thank you for participating in our show and here's another episode of pick your topic i love the show and all of the knowledge that it brings to all community's
20:44 "Belt fed" is a way to feed ammunition to a gun, usually a machine gun. An "ammunition belt" (as in belt fed) is doing the same job as a magazine but they can hold more rounds for continued fire.
Excellent information about black holes. Evidence that matter and anti-matter are separated by black holes. Further evidence that a black hole is the inverse of a big bang. Evaporation of black holes take nearly an infinite time, while the start of a big bang is nearly instantaneous.
That scene in Superman was meant to show not that Superman was causing the Earth to reverse direction, but that he was travelling so fast, that time was progressing backwards, but just for him. This would be in the vein of the famous physics limerick: There once was a lady so bright, That she could move faster than light. She left one day, In a relative way, And arrived the previous night. As for any human becoming romantically connected with Superman, I would refer you to Larry Niven's excellent paper on the subject, "Man of Steel, Woman of Tissue Paper."
To fill in on one of the questions, you could watch your past if you could magically teleport. The issue with travelling above the speed of light is that light travels 300,000 kilometres per second and as you probably already know speed increases mass and when an object reaches 300,000 kilometres per second, its mass becomes infinite and so does the energy required to move it. That's why this is practically impossible even on a subatomic level. So this chapter will have to stay in the science fiction and fantasy books.
Two things on conspiracy theories: They might be more exciting to the theorist's brain, less boring than real life, therefore more captivating. I'm not sure because they bore me to death. And second, they make the theorist feel special, who is one of the few who knows the "truth" while the majority are ignorant. Theorists rarely agree on the details of the conspiracies because they are more special than the others in the special group to which they belong.
Conspiracy theorists like theories that implicate their own government. It's why they believe the irrational "deep state" conspiracies, but reject the much more likely Trump/Russia scandal. What a waste. Conspiracy theorists should be working for our country, not against it. I get it. It's a defense mechanism to show they won't be fooled by those who have power over them. Isn't that ironic?
@@jgroovy1973 it feels like both could be partially true, there could be a thing such as deep state trying to destabilize the country same time a president could be atleast doing illegal business if not fully serving a foreign power.
This totally makes me think of the Community episode: "Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design" It is so hilariously convoluted, that by the end you can really only come to the conclusion that conspiracy theories are the absolute dumbest thing on the planet to invest time in. ... But yeah, I completely agree about it being an ego thing! That becomes especially exposed at the point that the conspiracy theorist can't defend their case, so they tell you to do the research. That's when I just about lose it. I mean, what in the world is more ignorant than a person believing in something that can't be explained without their detractors doing 100% of the homework? That would be like Neil addressing every question on Cosmic Queries with: "I already know the answer, so just Google it!". I would unsubscribe from here with the quickness!
J Groovy it is, because people who create these conspiracies implicate governments, organizations, agencies while failing to single out people. An organization is nothing but a large collection of people, and the likelihood of any large organization functioning as one collective brain ALL THE TIME😂 is completely ridiculous
With regard to street lights most lights have reflectors so all the light is reflected back to the street, but still the sky is pink, because of the light reflected from the streets. The only way to reduce it is to reduce the brightness or number of the lights.
Dr. Tyson, hello. Hi, Chuck (btw, Chuck, my name is easy..it's pronounced "mbgtrweukjp vcdfersekl)..lol Seriously though, how can Dr. Hawking's proposed radiation exist if the matter/antimatter pair starts from one point? According to Space Time videos, nothing can spend time AT the Event Horizon, so, that point of particular origin, pardon the pun, is going to be either: 1. Inside the BH, which means that neither particle can escape, or, 2, the point is outside the BH so it doesn't matter if any particles stay or fall in or fly away, because it didn't originate from inside the BH. What am I missing, Dr. Tyson (and hopefully Dr. Levin)? Thanks all! Love your shows! J and Bravo (my service dog)
I have your answer! One year late lol. So, So, you have a 100watt bulb and you wanna know how far away said bulb can be for the Hubble to detect. I’ll just saw the bulbs on Mars surface because that’s about as far as you can detect with Hubble. the apparent magnitude 0 is roughly 2 lumen per square kilometer, so a good 100 watt equivalent light bulb would have magnitude 0 at the distance of about 30 km (give or take, depending on directionality.) Increasing the distance by a factor of 10 drops the flux by a factor of 100, and increases the apparent magnitude by 5. Mars is at least 60 million km away. So, the light bulb would be somewhere above +31. Ditto what I said previously, That is close to the limit for the Hubble. You could not detect this with any land based telescope as they can only detect about up to +25!
2:20 Einstein’s Theory of Special Relativity tells us a gravitational field doesn’t emit any energy, since gravity is merely the bending of space time due to mass.
So, re: Hawking radiation - When the particle and anti-particle are created and one flies off while the other falls back into the black hole, WHICH particle falls back into the black hole and which escapes? Is it random, or does it always happen the same way? And IF it's the anti-particle that falls back in, does it then annihilate when it contacts matter in or on its way to the black hole? What would that mean for the black hole?
Goodevening Dr Tyson,and chuck. My name is robert brown, I would like to ask Dr Tyson,do you think human kind will ever be able to achieve time travel? And if so, what is the best way you think we would be able to do so?
"Dust in the Wind," recorded by Kansas in July 1977 and released in January 1978 on the 'Point of no return' album. It was written by Kerry Livgren, who didn't intend to do anything with just the guitar part, but was encouraged (some say nagged) by his wife to write the words for it. Livgren played it for his bandmates after all the other songs for the album had been recorded, because he didn't know if they would like it. It was the band's greatest hit, reaching number six on April 22, 1978. Just FYI.
I think most people don't understand that scene in superman. He doesn't touch the planet to make it spin backwards, he just flies at superluminal speed (another imposibility, I know) which reflects in time going backwards. Earth's orbit just happens to be Superman's track field to reach such speed.

Ah man Neil, that DC comics story is awesome 😃
That Superman story is really cool!
Never liked Superman, but this one I'd like to read.
I am 14 and In one episode of star talk you said that nothing can destroy a black hole, but what if a white hole were to collide with a black hole.
That scene in Superman was meant to show not that Superman was causing the Earth to reverse direction, but that he was travelling so fast, that time was progressing backwards, but just for him. This would be in the vein of the famous physics limerick:
There once was a lady so bright,
That she could move faster than light.
She left one day,
In a relative way,
And arrived the previous night.
As for any human becoming romantically connected with Superman, I would refer you to Larry Niven's excellent paper on the subject, "Man of Steel, Woman of Tissue Paper."
Chuck the break was already on the y axis of time. You can't change it!
Do the paintings on NDT's wall represent matter and anti-matter?
That's what you'd write on an exam to get partial credit cause you didn't remember dinosaurs. I laughed out loud, too funny!
I think the best episode ever 👍
To fill in on one of the questions, you could watch your past if you could magically teleport. The issue with travelling above the speed of light is that light travels 300,000 kilometres per second and as you probably already know speed increases mass and when an object reaches 300,000 kilometres per second, its mass becomes infinite and so does the energy required to move it. That's why this is practically impossible even on a subatomic level. So this chapter will have to stay in the science fiction and fantasy books.

Dust in the wind 😌Kansas one of my favorite tunes
"Dust in the Wind," recorded by Kansas in July 1977 and released in January 1978 on the 'Point of no return' album. It was written by Kerry Livgren, who didn't intend to do anything with just the guitar part, but was encouraged (some say nagged) by his wife to write the words for it. Livgren played it for his bandmates after all the other songs for the album had been recorded, because he didn't know if they would like it. It was the band's greatest hit, reaching number six on April 22, 1978. Just FYI.
Thanks mate
When I finally meet you Neil, I'll make sure to have my Action Comics #14 for you to sign
Thank you kind sirs for a great video
Can you please ask Neil "What causes us to faint? And can light exposure make you pass out?
its the lack of oxygen to brain!
Does Neil talk down to Chuck? I find Chuck to be highly intelligent.
I think most people don't understand that scene in superman. He doesn't touch the planet to make it spin backwards, he just flies at superluminal speed (another imposibility, I know) which reflects in time going backwards. Earth's orbit just happens to be Superman's track field to reach such speed.
I wish I could just hear Neil
NdGT cracks me up when he responds to questions with a definitive blink of the eyes, like a pause.
You guys have fun 👍
Hi Neil! Great to see you again!
