Keep up the great work! It is amazing that you're a generous enough to share your time and knowledge with us, and I'm very grateful to have the ability to learn from you and your guests. I watch all sorts of physics documentaries and podcasts, and I always learn something new on the Liuniverse podcast. There are little gems of information and everyone it seems. And after being an amateur physics nerd for 20 years, it's pretty rare that I learn something new. So thank you!
It's funny ... whenever I saw Chuck at Neil's Star Talk I thought he'd be a great character for the Star Trek series. I just discovered his Podcast now. I love it.
I'm not a student anymore, but Jayhan got me thinking of a great question potentially, for one of your future episodes: "what would happen to the other star in a supermassive star binary system, if one of the stars supernovaed, before the other?" Follow up question: "Could early universe supermassive star binary systems, experiencing a supernova with one of the stars, have accelerated the creation of supermassive black holes by causing a premature collapse of the star that didn't supernova, and therefore creating a supermassive black hole with a combined mass, right from the start, of both of the supermassive stars' leftover cores?
Last comment on this video, I swear... Allen, you have great insight and pose great questions. Between Chuck and you, you both help bridge the gap between pre and post internet generations. Please don't be shy to share your insight, and ask questions. It creates great discussion material and can help us as a species while we go through this technological revolution. There are so few discussions about the fact that we are accelerating our collective understanding at a faster rate than we ever have in human history by a huge margin, because of technology and our ability to communicate so much more efficiently, and just your back and forth with Chuck and the discussions that arise from that, can give us a better understanding and help us all see each other's point of view better. You're doing great, and your insight and questions are valued and important!
@@frankwestphal8532 (Allen Here) - Thanks so much Frank! I'm super glad that you've been able to learn something from our show, and I appreciate the feedback - my instinct often to put the guests at the center of the show and just chime in occasionally, but I'm always happy to be part of the conversation. Would you want us to put your binary supernova questions in the pool for the season finale Q&A special that we're doing?
The stars that would have formed some-time after the cosmic dark ages would have formed from mostly hydrogen as no other elements had yet formed and been either metal poor or extremely metal poor making what I would assume were massive pure hydrogen stars? If this is true, would those early stars and the nature of their structure have any correlation to the massive black holes we see at the center of galaxies today? Or even distant, active quasars or AGN?
Thank you for the great show.

Wouldn't some violently spinning galaxies produce strong magnetic fields that could act as a barrier to some spectrum of traveling waves?

Where is Neil!!!!
