Sean I know this implies a bit more work, but can you put questions that you engage in in the description of the video? It's easier to find stuff that way given that AMA videos have no particular topics
So for time, would it work to think of the “big bang” propelling us (the matter of the universe) through the time part of space time and it gave us such momentum that the only way to turn back and go against the tide would be such massive gravity that it pulls us back through time?
1:37:00 i'll ask again just in case. my branches question is, if harry potter (the character) is a character in this universe, do fictional characters remain fictional in all universes, or is there the proposterous (!) possibility he is an actual hogwarts magic student in another universe somewhere? how does that apply to god?
I do not want to put it out as a full text, but your question is easily interpreted as wrong by nature. If you want those arguments to be true there is an unbeliabky large amount of work to be done in QFT.
Anyone know which episode (and time stamp) in which he talks about the possible futures of covid? I fell asleep to that last night and want to re-listen
Is the reason that mass warps spacetime down to the fact that spacetime is dark energy itself and mass slows down the expansion of space-time/dark energy?
I enjoy this ride and anticipate it eagerly. Start watching for it around the fifteenth of each month. Always learn something. Thanks to Dr. Carroll and all the participants.
You are my hero (among with Brian Greene) and Theoretical Physics is my SECOND favourite subject. I wonder what is your best guess on my FIRST preferred subject, the solution for the Fermi Paradox. Myself, I would bet that complex life is very very rare, and technological civilizations are extremely rare, but that's just me. No aliens, unfortunately, at least not in our galaxy anyway. What do you think? Maybe there are universes out there where complex life, abstract intelligence and consequently, tech space faring civilizations are pretty common, ours doesn't seem to be one of them.
Marco, Prof. Carroll already answered this exact question in one of his previous AMAs. His answer was exactly as yours "intelligent life is extremely rare in the Universe".
Very appealing, when you think of emergence you deal with high lexical ambiguity levels, being an interdisciplinary concept. Scales, on the other hand, are very useful and objective. I have imagined a time where, from "nano bots" we could reach giant biotechnology based interstellar traveling devices... Juvenile dreams are free of almost all boundaries... even when you are not young. 🎂🤔
2:44:00 surely the problem is not the system of government, but who is governing and to what end. communism, dictatorships, democray can all be beneficial to the populace, and the world, but so far the people who set these systems up aren't really looking to the interests of anyone but themselves. 45's administration can't be counted as any better than a lot of dictatorships. what is needed is a way to get people with good ideas and intentions beneficial to the population and the rest of the world into power. in the UK i think we should lose the house of lords and have a house of experts / scientists, people who more partial to the state of the planet than the state of their stately home.
I discovered this podcast several months ago and have been making my way through it the episodes slowly trying to catch up. I really love it and I love Sean, but I wonder if he has any regrets about being so wrong about the corona virus, especially the efficacy of the vaccine. I guess maybe I'll find out if I ever catch up.
At some point in the infinite future there will be truly empty space, that is space that is totally void of vacuum energy (any energy/particles/virtual particles)? So what's the argument against time's "speed" th-cam.com/video/iBTez-nTKes/w-d-xo.html. I have never understood how white holes cold be a thing, if a black hole leaks matter/energy on the other side via white hole, wouldn't the black hole mass shrink away quickly?
No shit about Bones?? That's one of my favorite episodes of any show ever... To confirm, do you mean the episode about the "dancer moving through space in physics " No way Sean how cool. Edit, yep the one about the Gymnast. "Spark in the park" How cool, I mean you are famous anyway but... Have you seen the show Elementary? The episode on P vs NP was awesome also.
Around 2:02+ a 'free quark' is described as having infinite energy attracting other quarks? No way am I going to fully quote Sean Carroll on what he is describing. So I think the Gluon Field attracting Quarks to other Quarks is supposed to be the inverse of Gravity; basic or ground state when they are touching...and getting stronger with distance, up to that limit of infinite strength for the 'impossible Quark that is alone' Just Yikes! This is not sci fi; this is what a respected Quantum Physics Theorists says is HOW matter functions. But since that 'free and alone quark' is not possible; that would imply quarks could be created only in stable groups. What are stable groups? Proton and Neutron are the known ones, but Quark Stars or generally inside Neutron Stars are theorized as maybe existing with Strange Matter...that would have any arbitrary number of quarks less than the mass needed to create a black hole. Anyway no free quark could be created for this to make sense; it would be a hidden phenomena that absolutely requires quarks to be created in a stable group...so at least 3 quarks at a time. So so weird! If accepted as truth implies some questions; what is the maximum number of quarks that could be created from one reaction of other particles? Is the requirement some multiple of 3 at a time? If the requirement is not a multiple of 3 the Proton or Neutron amount, it would be even weirder...and however it is explained it would itself be a bizarre bit of math logic.
Seriously! I never heard this description of Atoms! At 2:14 to 2:17 an Atom is described as all the Quarks in a pool of Strange Matter...NOT as separate Protons and Neutrons all stuck together. I will listen again to make sure I did not misunderstand. Also the definition of "Composite Particle" is pretty cool. Sean Carroll seems confident; that he is describing truth not a specific theory. So if this is how Atoms are; not a collection of Protons and Neutrons...then Strange Matter is every location with an atom Larger than a Proton. For years I thought Strange Matter was supposed to be in only rare extreme locations such as Neutron Stars.
Is there one single solitary aspect of any of this that can be proven scientifically? Or is it all just math equations and Pseudoscience nonsense?? Serious question
"We" feel that you are scaling up your explanatory level, based on an "evolution" on the level of questions. That first analogy between philosophy and cosmology made by John Rawls has escaped me at first hearing. I sense also that the rhythm or cadence of speech as increased, but I may be me, living a slow day... or both, or neither, truth. Your courses are very pedagogical oriented, and schedule into thirty clear minutes. Or maybe you, moving the server to Massachusetts have picked up a little piece of the eastern coast 1.2/1.3 speed up... Pardon me, your supporters just should not inquire those unnecessary observations. I have your podcast as THE top, neat, scientific podcast, (with Lex Fridman on your tail...) 🔥🤗🙏
Aren’t there an infinite number of universe where ice NEVER melts at room temperature? And even more where Ice doesn’t melt only once? Why can’t this universe be one?
I want to ask you a question I think I figured out how to travel back in time but you need a wormhole to be able to work see if this makes sense to you you open a wormhole from Earth to Proxima Centauri 4 light-years away then you open another Wormhole back to Earth it should be four years in the past that point right the reason why because light from Proxima Centauri is 4 years old or any Star for that matter you could travel back in time as much as you wanted but you just travel to a store where you got the time that it was the planet you make the Wormhole come out at that point then you turn around and come right back to her however for out you traveled and returned that many years have passed because wormholes should be instantaneous transportation across the universe
The singular is 'phenomenon. ' The plural is 'phenomena. ... Its meaning hasn't changed, and you still make it plural like you make Greek words plural. The plural is “phenomena.” What are you saying that he mixes up the singular and plural? I'm much more troubled by his continued alluding to LaPlace is demon as a good way to conceptualize the universe. I know he knows better but he makes people believe that this is like a real possible thing and it's worth considering It's in flagrant violation of multiple points of both classical and quantum mechanics. We can't predict how any complex system will evolve such as the weather because it's physically impossible. And there's no type of intelligence that can because that intelligence would have to fundamentally violate the laws of physics. He talks about this idea least twice every Ama as on most podcast. Why don't we constantly Muse about perpetual motion machines while we're at it
My question would be - can God make a galaxy sized black hole? Specifically, escape velocity of a galaxy can get high with a very low density, so if God kept dropping in new mass in circular orbits in a galaxy, you can reach a point where escape velocity approaches the speed of light, while internally, orbital velocity is comfortably lower than the speed of light. So what happens in the limit? Will this galaxy just "fall out of spacetime"? And if so, would it become a separate universe? And what would its boundaries look like from the inside? It doesn't seem like you need any "singularity" in the center if kinetic energy can keep the mass from all falling into the center.
It would just appear redshifted to an outside observer. It wouldn't be a black hole, it would be a high mass galaxy. I don't think you grasp how dense a black hole would be.. you'd have to keep adding more mass until there was no space left, then keep adding more until there is no space for neutrons left, then keep adding more
@@seionne85 Not true. This is simply escape velocity: v=√(2GM/R). If density, d, is kept constant, mass increases with cube of radius. This gives v=R√(8Gdπ/3). So if you double the radius of a galaxy, escape velocity also doubles (w/ same density). So just take the density of an ordinary galaxy, and scale it up in radius until escape velocity equals the speed of light.
But you need less senators and that means people who demand to live in cities have two things: 1.) Access to better living including afluent access to better facts and discourse, examples of progress and justice, innovative aproaches etc.,2.) less access to representative democracy proportionate to the population compared to corn farmers. Boohoo🙉
I can't stand being around other humans, I find it almost impossible to talk to people in person. I rarely leave my room. I don't have friends or family. I avoid interacting with other people physically and become extremely uncomfortable when forced by circumstances. I don't trust anyone. I don't like anyone. This is as close as I get to interacting with other humans
We can be so deep in that thought pattern that we can't even tell between anxiety or excitement anymore. It still takes me weeks sometimes to get back to loved ones or commit to being around people. It is truly exhausting. People fucking suck. Going out and having a small experience like sharing a hello and smile with an elderly person can personally change my entire outlook and energy for the day though. Keep rolling along ❤
You limit yourself, yet you don't wish it to be. You have a choice and constantly forbid yourself of it, in other words, you choose to be miserable. You can change this, if willing
I'm very lucky to be alive. To have the internet, youtube, and Sean Carroll.
These are more valuable than gold or platinum. Thank you.
Thanks for taking the time to do this Sean, it was great to listen to on my drive
2:50:47 "Professor, I am enchanted with your subtle answer, pointing to the absurd of the question 😁🔥👍
Absurdity. 😉
I could not stop laughing, including writing this comment: when you said,"Too bad there is no diagram." in your high sing songy voice. So so funny!
I really appreciate all the content in your channel, specially this AMAs. Thank you very much Prof. Dr. Sean.

Finally! September AMA. Thank you Sean very much! It will ruin my night sleep, but I don't care. It's worth it to be tired at work tomorrow, hehe. 👍
I wish it would ruin mine. it takes me days to get through these because I'm off to sleep in 20 - 30 mins max every time. Not a bad thing because since I discovered all Seans pdocasts I havent had trouble sleeping once!
2:14:21 Orientation: in fact the plane of our solar system is tilted by like 60° to the plane of the Milky Way, in other words tilted by 2/3.

i just heard there is a theory that there is only one electron in the universe, that it time travels to be everywhere....have i been mislead?
So for time, would it work to think of the “big bang” propelling us (the matter of the universe) through the time part of space time and it gave us such momentum that the only way to turn back and go against the tide would be such massive gravity that it pulls us back through time?
