An honest mathematician. Excellent talk highlighting the realization that not all mathematics is physics and vice versa. There’s still much to be discovered both physically and in theory.
Science is based on skepticism, even of existing scientific dogma itself, so it is always refreshing to see someone as qualified as Penrose to fill this role and keep us thinking in other directions than the usual consensus that marches in lockstep with the prevailing theories
I wish Penrose would have heard the question of the young woman more clearly than he did. The question repeated to him by the moderator was not the question she asked. It was a good one I don't think he answered because he didn't hear the first part of the question that had to do with the extremely improbability of our big bang and asking wouldn't that make the othe big bangs even more improbable. It was a great question. I think his ideas about the extreme improbability of our universe was formed long before his ideas about there not being a first big bang. I too would have like to hear him square up those notions.
The brain is an area of neurophysiology activity. Neurophysiology activity consists of electrochemical reaction. Thus at any given time, the brain state is defined by a subset of electrochemical reactions, derived from a large set of possible reactions. Consider the phenomenon of a. conscious thought. As at any given time the brain physical state consists of a collection of electrochemical reactions (events), it can be inferred that they are collectively responsible for the conscious thought. This means that at least in part, simultaneous events are responsible for thought. In other words, thought creates a connection between simultaneous events. This is in contradiction to the consequences of special relativity, which states that the fastest connection between events is the speed of light and thus excludes the possibility of connection between simultaneous events. Consider the memorizing of, say, the value 5. This would necessarily involve more than 1 point in space as, say, if it is assumed a single electron records 5 by taking a particular potential. Then it by itself cannot define (or know) 5, as its magnitude would be defined only with respect to another datum or event defined as a unit potential, thus involving at least 2 simultaneous events. Consider the experience of vision. While we focus our attention on an object of vision, we are still aware of a background and, thus, a whole collection of events. This would mean at least an equal collection of physical events in the brain are involved. Take the experience of listening to music. It would mean being aware of what went before. Like vision, it would probably mean that while our attention at any given time is focused at that point in time, it is aware of what went before and what is to follow. In other words, it spans the time axis. Many great composers have stated that they are able to hear their whole composition. Thus their acoustic experience is probably like the average person's visual experience. While focusing at a particular point in time of their composition, they are nevertheless aware of what went before and what is to come. The rest of the composition is like the background of a visual experience. Experiencing the composition in this way, they are able to traverse it in a similar fashion to which a painting is observed. In this sense, an average person in comparison can be seen as having tunnel hearing (like tunnel vision) when it comes to music, thus making it very difficult for him or her to reproduce or create new music. It can be seen that consciousness is a 4-D phenomenon. If it is a physically explainable phenomenon, such an explanation would involve EPR type effects and as such physical explanations at a quantum level will be involved. philpapers.org/rec/DESCAS
There is no contradiction between emergent phenomena and special relativity. Probably the workings of the brain do utilize quantum phenomena, but the point you're making here is just plain wrong. You are using an insane amount of words to say that emergence such as consciousness arising from the brain is not explainable or calculable using a deterministic theory such as special relativity. It is not, but there is no contradiction either. :)

Herman Potočnik alias Hermann Noordung Potočnik's book Das Problem der Befahrung des Weltraums - der Raketen-Motor (The Problem of Space Travel - The Rocket Motor) in Berlin (1929) described geostationary satellites (first put forward by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky) and discussed communication between them and the ground using radio, but fell short of the idea of using satellites for mass broadcasting and as telecommunications relays (developed by Arthur C. Clarke in his Wireless World article of 1945). The wheel-shaped space station served as an inspiration for further development by Wernher von Braun (another former VfR member) in 1952.

I like Roger's idea that space conformally rescales infinitely into the future as a result of the decay of all matter leaving only massless radiation. What I don't understand is how that conformal rescaling causes new matter to be created leading to the restarting of time and the reexpansion of space-time, and re-emergence of gravity. Does anyone know how this happens in Roger's model?
@@zagyex Yes, well I've heard ideas such as: quantum fluctuations in the quantum foam could start big bangs and lead to inflation. What interests me specifically in light of the CCC theory is that: as mass decays leaving only massless particles like photons, time ends, distance goes with it ie, leading to the collapse of space into perhaps a singularity or close to it. Now, that implies that the concentration or density of the massless particles will go through the roof. I was wondering: at the point where all mass remaining in the universe finally decays, that means frequency and hence time goes to zero. Now, if 'c' (speed of light) = distance travelled by a photon/time, and time goes to zero, then obviously the math breaks. Whether the conformal contraction of space is gradual (as mass and time gradually decay away), or if if time goes only after the last subatomic particle decays, at some point, the constant speed of light has to be violated as distance left approaches zero (the singularity). Does that somehow convert massless subatomic particles back into super hot big bang primordial plasma?
@@dougmarkham I am really not an expert, but as I understand this, photons experience no time even now. And no distance. So in a sense photons are already infinitely close together from _their perspective_ . But particles with mass create a frame of reference where there are distances. So the boundary is gradual for the particles as their frame of reference disappears ?
1:21:56 "... so it's a experimentally perfectable testable theory" Really?! And how exactly could we test whether a massive black hole was formed in a "previous" "aeon", which is how he prefaced that conclusion about testability?
That's not the real problem with Einstein. The real problems are in those cases where he was clearly wrong and he never thought that he could have been mistaken.

What makes Conformal Cyclic Cosmology presume that the stacking of aeons proceeds in a columnar or linear fashion rather than being circular?

Do people that live in deep space (without the influence of strong local gravity all the time like we do) have greater quantum consciousness? Does the full moon being on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun become crazy making because of an unsettling gravity overlap?

It is obvious that Penrose doesn't know much about the history of quantum mechanics. The double slit experiment wasn't the reason why it had to be developed. Atomic and molecular spectra were. Thermal radiation was. The photoelectric effect required it. Technically, and this is quite a bit more troublesome for Penrose, the double slit experiment is not even a quantum experiment. It works with water waves just as well. It works with sound waves. It works with any kind of wave phenomenon and it does not, at any time, require Planck's constant for its explanation. That alone should give a physicist pause to call it a quantum experiment.
For sure. He goes on so many little tangents that it's incoherent and incomprehensible. I really enjoy his writings and his novel approach to science, but he gives a terrible lecture.

Also... He introduced himself as Dr. Blah blah..... Only podiatrists, optometrists, chiropractors, and PhDs in ”education” feel the need to impress others with the title Dr.
Or, if you are not trying to impress anyone you just use the titles for descriptive purposes, like when you are doing introductions.

So called "black holes" are only hypothesised by a few people. That doesn not meant they exist or could exist.
It is like physic's superhero. Completely speculative.
The salary for those sitting around speculating them is real and comes from your tax dollars.
why is roger saying all this?
Why does an opera singer sing?

It is obvious that Penrose doesn't know much about the history of quantum mechanics. The double slit experiment wasn't the reason why it had to be developed. Atomic and molecular spectra were. Thermal radiation was. The photoelectric effect required it. Technically, and this is quite a bit more troublesome for Penrose, the double slit experiment is not even a quantum experiment. It works with water waves just as well. It works with sound waves. It works with any kind of wave phenomenon and it does not, at any time, require Planck's constant for its explanation. That alone should give a physicist pause to call it a quantum experiment.
Triangulation is the reason for the discrepancies in their proper use.

The absolute worst description of the double slit experiment that i have EVER heard.
great stuff but very hard to handle the lecture. He is absolutely terrible at it.
For sure. He goes on so many little tangents that it's incoherent and incomprehensible. I really enjoy his writings and his novel approach to science, but he gives a terrible lecture.
Way too much babbling by SIr Penrose..... It is time to stick to painting pictures.
What a bunch of rambling disconnected nonsense
