That last number basically accounts for numerous possible particles combinations for countless universes in the multiverse. But there should theoretically be an even bigger number if adding that to the number of possible universes with differing physics and their possible permutations which could equal our own universes, making that number even more astronomical and an even larger exponential jump than the others before. It's the number particles in all possible versions of every multiverse. Or the number particles in every possible version of the meta-verse. The Metaplex! Now just add the number of particles each one of those multiverses in the meta-verse could simulate and we're really talking. I guess we'll call it the simuplex. Plus you can always just add one more. 😵
If I would of known about Neil when I was a kid, I would of probably have a major in science. Man this guy just makes me want to learn more and ask more questions
Basics first, young Grasshopper: It's *would've, as in would have. Would of doesn't mean anything.

It's a commonplace occurrence, but hey, it’s the internet, Go Nuts!
Even if you use a stack of exponents, there aren't enough particles in the universe to write down Graham's number. And then there's TREE(3), which makes Graham's number look insignificant.

He is just such an amazing communicator, that he can take even a relatively boring subject matter, in this case numbers, then blow your freeking mind by giving it all perspective, in a way you can understand. Hes the teacher for the world, anyone who will listen he will gladly interrupt you and talk all day about the universe lol
it's that enthusiasm he has- it's contagious! I was just imagining how vastly different school would have been for me if ANY of my teachers had had even HALF the love of knowledge and passion for learning as this man does....SO glad I stumbled across his channel!!
Not the first time I've heard about extraordinary numbers, but it was more interesting than I expected. I love that I think I'll always remember what a Google plex is, and how it compares to all the particles in the universe.
A googol is 100100100100110101101001001011001010011000011011111001110101100001011001001111000010011000100110011100000101111110011100010101100111001000000100011100010000100011010011111001010101010110010010000110000100010101000001011101000111100010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 in binary.
I had to go back and double check and he did actually say “if you counted one number per second” - to a trillion.........it would take 31 thousand years and that would be somewhat accurate but if you literally counted/spelled out the numbers (two hundred and forty seven billion, four hundred and thirty one million, nine hundred and sixty two thousand, three hundred and fifty five etc.) all the way to a trillion, it would probably take closer to a million years
Loaders Number D5(99) ftw! (Rayo's number is a garbage philosophy, so it doesn't count....) Loaders Number makes Tree(3) Effectively zero. It wouldn't even show up in a percentage chart.
Skewes number isn't even about the number of ways to arrange matter in the universe as he mentioned in the video. It's a number appeared in the prime counting problem, which of course is also covered in numberphile. There's also BB(n) and SCG(13) for those who don't like Rayo's number that is bigger than TREE(3). Loader is also artificially created in a big number contest similar to Rayo so it is not as pure math as SCG if you have to be picky. There's something called the finite promise game that dwarfs Loader's number.
Exponential numbers play a crucial role in astrophysics, allowing scientists to describe vast distances, massive celestial bodies, and enormous forces in the universe. These big numbers help us understand phenomena such as the expansion of the universe and the gravitational pull of black holes. By using these mathematical tools, astrophysicists can model complex interactions and predict cosmic events. How might future advancements in our understanding of exponential numbers further enhance our exploration of the cosmos?
What might really get people is that Since there aren’t even a googol particles in the universe it would be impossible for something as tiny as a human head to become that many pieces. I got excited when Neil mentioned chess but we never got to hear the number of possible non-trivial chess games is still larger than the number of particles in the universe. Approx 10^120
Actually, Neil was a little off with that "distance of 100 billion single dollars laid end to end" calculation. It actually would be to the moon and back 10 times (at ave distance of 238,000 miles - that part's fine) and then around the Earth 190 times (not 200 times, using a circumference of 24,900) That distance almost exactly equals 100 billion single US dollar lengths (which are exactly six inches, btw.)
Neil: "The amount of grains of sand on one beach is quintillion." "There's 400 billion stars in our galaxy." My teacher: There's more stars in the Milky Way, than there are grains of sand on Earth." Me: "My teacher's an idiot." *has a flashback 5 years ago* Also my teacher: "tHe SuN iS iN tHe MiDdLe Of OuR gAlAxY."
10^100 = 1 googol 10^googol or 10^10^100 or 10^10^10^2 = 1 googolplex. The repeated exponentiated form is called tetration and even that's nothing compared to truly unfathomable numbers like Grahams number (which involves Knuth's up arrow notation) or Tree(3).
I love listening to Neil, the things he talks about are amazing and he takes time to explain them in a way that is easy to understand, makes me feel like I'm back at school

5:15 When you deal with physics you can calculate so many things you had questions about. Like how many heartbeats gave done so far.vAll this can be calculated
I will be using this in my Algebra class next year when we talk about exponents. Awesome!
Neil has a godly explanation for everything, like he can make you understand how a baby crawls in a satisfying video 😂
He is just such an amazing communicator, that he can take even a relatively boring subject matter, in this case numbers, then blow your freeking mind by giving it all perspective, in a way you can understand. Hes the teacher for the world, anyone who will listen he will gladly interrupt you and talk all day about the universe lol
you poor poor gullible thing
it's that enthusiasm he has- it's contagious! I was just imagining how vastly different school would have been for me if ANY of my teachers had had even HALF the love of knowledge and passion for learning as this man does....SO glad I stumbled across his channel!!
@@levelplanet3841 ? who is gullible
Keksi can you?
17:03 oh yeah? Well what about skews number to the skews number, to the skews number? 🤔 I'm kidding, my brain hurts
No one:
me at 4am: its a big number
I VisiBomb I ,I Just Woke Up,Its 0315😂😂😂😂
4:31 here

Amazing. This was much needed. Do something similar for extremly small numbers too
So how would you attempt to comprehend something like Tree(3), which is way bigger than skew’s number
Not the first time I've heard about extraordinary numbers, but it was more interesting than I expected. I love that I think I'll always remember what a Google plex is, and how it compares to all the particles in the universe.
A googolplex of likes for this episode... :-)
Google's server doesn't have enough processing power for this many likes
Even that is as far from infinity as one is....
john tracy infinity is not a number
This is the first video I have seen of these two. Probably one of my favorite shows ever now!!
My advice to you is to binge Neil DT.
Search for the video of "What keeps Neil up at night"
I once got really bored in school, and tried writing out a Google. I had 100 pages of 0s before I gave up.
It was an amazing waste of paper.
you weren't even close to a google tho
A googol is a 1 with only a hundred zeros. You definitely went way way past that number because I'm sure you wrote more than one digit on each page
A googol is 100100100100110101101001001011001010011000011011111001110101100001011001001111000010011000100110011100000101111110011100010101100111001000000100011100010000100011010011111001010101010110010010000110000100010101000001011101000111100010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
in binary.
Seems you just didn't understand what a google is, because you could write it on a single page of paper.
A lot of people don't seem to realize that he wasn't trying to write out a "googol". He was trying to write out the entire internet.
An 18 minute Neil Degrasse Tyson video has more ads than the sun has hydrogen molecules.
Ads..? what Ads?
Joe Horn is still subscribed to Watch Mojo. It’s cute really, I remember my first you tube account.
I just love how enthusiastic they are about big numbers. Chucks face when he is told about a Google plex is excellent.
Dayum, chuck does really need money judging from the amount of ads in this video lol, love the vid content anyway as always ❤️
I had to go back and double check and he did actually say “if you counted one number per second” - to a trillion.........it would take 31 thousand years and that would be somewhat accurate but if you literally counted/spelled out the numbers (two hundred and forty seven billion, four hundred and thirty one million, nine hundred and sixty two thousand, three hundred and fifty five etc.) all the way to a trillion, it would probably take closer to a million years
That’s why he said if you can count a number per second. Words!
@@blowc1612 The example given IS a number. Words!
@@blowc1612 Clearly not a fan of math huh?
@@MadScientist267 you seem to don’t understand it still 😂.
@@theguywhoisaustralian1465 clearly you have no brain huh?
There are so many times in this video that I go to hit the Like button and realize I’ve already hit it.
"...you have 10 to the google power." "Is that called a yahoo?"- the wittiest joke I've heard Chuck make to date.
Its Googol
Neil: Skewes number is a big number
Me: *Laughs in TREE(3)*
great vids btw, always relaxing to hear Neil talk
Loaders Number D5(99) ftw! (Rayo's number is a garbage philosophy, so it doesn't count....) Loaders Number makes Tree(3) Effectively zero. It wouldn't even show up in a percentage chart.
Skewes number isn't even about the number of ways to arrange matter in the universe as he mentioned in the video. It's a number appeared in the prime counting problem, which of course is also covered in numberphile. There's also BB(n) and SCG(13) for those who don't like Rayo's number that is bigger than TREE(3). Loader is also artificially created in a big number contest similar to Rayo so it is not as pure math as SCG if you have to be picky. There's something called the finite promise game that dwarfs Loader's number.
@@pleasuretokill that's awesome.
@@carbrickscity I knew id find you in a another video about big numbers. I watch your videos btw. great content
Exponential numbers play a crucial role in astrophysics, allowing scientists to describe vast distances, massive celestial bodies, and enormous forces in the universe. These big numbers help us understand phenomena such as the expansion of the universe and the gravitational pull of black holes. By using these mathematical tools, astrophysicists can model complex interactions and predict cosmic events. How might future advancements in our understanding of exponential numbers further enhance our exploration of the cosmos?
I always get a tingling in my spine when Neil gets to the number of stars in the universe.
🤣😂
10^10^10^56 years: the amount of time you need to wait for the next big bang :) but hey, it's not forever.
Gives new meaning to the googelaphonic speaker system. Great Steve Martin routine. And don’t forget your moon rock needle for the record player
My head transcended into google pieces 😂
Googol
What might really get people is that Since there aren’t even a googol particles in the universe it would be impossible for something as tiny as a human head to become that many pieces.
I got excited when Neil mentioned chess but we never got to hear the number of possible non-trivial chess games is still larger than the number of particles in the universe. Approx 10^120
Continue this with a part two and go into Graham’s number and TRE3 and other massive numbers
These videos are underrated.. It just blew my mind and my ego destroyed.
Ugh, trying to imagine those unimaginably BIG numbers really made my head spinnn! 😣😫
Check out numberphiles video on a number called grahams number
@@emilnilsson3165 is it just me or upon learning about grahams number it feels almost like an obligation to share it with the whole world
Almost everytime I watch this show, I learn something new. 💡
14:11 "Is that a Yahoo?" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am dead
Neil, I love the art
Joe, are you being sarcastic or just mean for no reason?
This is just mind blowing!
Side note: I love how the ads for his videos are of him 🤣
6:38
Neil: .. 15 zeros..
Chuck: This is inconceivable!
Neil: I'm getting there. You don't know inconceivable yet! 😂😂😂😂😂
"There's always a bigger number" -Qui-gon deGrasse Tyson
15:49 ''That's insane''
Yep xD This bit had me laughing for a while, thanks for the video!
Wish you had kept going bigger. I wanted to hear Neil try to describe TREE(3) while Chuck's head explodes.
I wish he would have talked more about Knuth's up-arrow notation more.
Big numbers they said, it would be easy to grasp they said
Actually, Neil was a little off with that "distance of 100 billion single dollars laid end to end" calculation. It actually would be to the moon and back 10 times (at ave distance of 238,000 miles - that part's fine) and then around the Earth 190 times (not 200 times, using a circumference of 24,900) That distance almost exactly equals 100 billion single US dollar lengths (which are exactly six inches, btw.)
Neil: "The amount of grains of sand on one beach is quintillion."
"There's 400 billion stars in our galaxy."
My teacher: There's more stars in the Milky Way, than there are grains of sand on Earth."
Me: "My teacher's an idiot."
*has a flashback 5 years ago*
Also my teacher: "tHe SuN iS iN tHe MiDdLe Of OuR gAlAxY."
actually the sun could be center of our galaxy for all we know. three a 1 in a 10^20 chance our math is wrong.
Graham's Number! Although there are even bigger numbers :).
10^100 = 1 googol
10^googol or 10^10^100 or 10^10^10^2 = 1 googolplex. The repeated exponentiated form is called tetration and even that's nothing compared to truly unfathomable numbers like Grahams number (which involves Knuth's up arrow notation) or Tree(3).
I love listening to Neil, the things he talks about are amazing and he takes time to explain them in a way that is easy to understand, makes me feel like I'm back at school
Dr Strange: I've seen a Googleplex amount of possible futures
Iron Man: How many do we win?
Dr Strange: ...🥺
Googolplex
Chuck’s stumped looks are just precious
Tyson never ceases to amaze. Love it!
