    I used to always give myself a reason to go on. The reason was “what Simpson’s episode will I miss” I eventually stopped caring and watching the simpsons. Struggled for quite a while to find a reason to continue on. Now I think “what thoughty2 videos will I miss”
    Aside from them being informative, funny and interesting. They’re comforting.

    What I always found fascinating was the time dilation. When a light particle is created from our vantage it can take thousands of years to escape the sun. Then about 8 and a half minutes to get to the earth and the back of your eye where it annihilates. But from the particles point of view due to time dilation it would be instantaneous. Thus creating and annihilating at the same time. Drawing out a null line. A distance crossed in zero time. This one little thing in relativity melted my brain.

    • @terryhayward7905
      @terryhayward7905 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That is because the only real constant in the universe is the one thing that we still do not truly understand. gravity. Time, and therefore, the speed of light is only truly relative to gravity.

    • @davepeterschmidt5818
      @davepeterschmidt5818 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      One thing that always fascinated me about this concept is that, from the photon's point of view, it only exists for a timeless instant as a line connecting its creation point and its endpoint. This means that the endpoint of the light beam effectively exists as a beam that crosses time as well as space, since the endpoint is in the future of the creation point. It's mind-bending to wrap your head around.

    • @BobPharmacon
      @BobPharmacon 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's all hypothetical, so, he is my interpretation. If light has life, it's processes would be effected environmentally. Thusly, to me, light would be capable of thinking and processing that information as fast as say, itself. So, upon that thought, it would be be 'being, living, etcetc' as we do. So around it (this living light) it would see everything frozen in time around it.....🐻

    • @slo3337
      @slo3337 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Another way to think about it is space dilation, the photon leaves and arrives simultaneously experiencing no time as well as traveling through no space. The space between becomes shorter and shorter as you approach C. A photons departure point is the same as its arrival point from the photons point of view

    If you could send a message faster than light, and the receiver of the message was moving, then time dilation could be bigger than the time the message spent in transit. So it would be possible to receive a reply before you even sent the message. This is known as Tolman's Paradox, and it's why most physicists are highly skeptical about any kind of FTL hacks, including wormholes.

      So to negate Tolman's paradox would require the FTL message to 'deflect' the right amount into the future of a time dilating receiver to resolve the paradox. Interesting possible new 'field' effect-- the Tolman anti-dilation Field if you like?

      So they can pretend to know something by imagining an elaborate intellectual construct they call teory. Even tho almost no one claims to understand it. And since they can't prove it, no one can disprove it. Handy.

    I discovered sound had a finite speed when I was 6 years old. I remember watching some dump trucks at a construction site dumping rock. I was about 1/4 of a mile away. I noticed after the truck dumped it load and started lowering the truck bed the rear door would slam against the back of the truck and it took a second for me to hear the bang created by it. I was fascinated by it and sat there for a while to keep hearing it.

      So you would rather waste 18mins of your life by some guy with a fake mustache then listen to the real explanation that he never even gave? Strange how you even came to an understanding when he didnt even offer one. The truth is that you have to be light to travel at the speed of light, and the only things that can faster dont exist so technically nothing can go faster than the speed of light and exist at the same time. Not sure what classes fucked that up for you a million times, but this man is NOT the solution.

    What i always wondered about in experiments like the one with the clocks in planes (and in case my school teacher tought us that: Apologies, that i forgot that):
    How do the clocks in the plane know, that their time has to pass more slowly, because they were the ones beeing accelerated and slowed down?
    Why weren't the clocks on the ground beeing accelerated and slowed down in the opposite direction?
    Shouldn't they all be in equally valid inertial frames of reference?
    Or in other words, if the clocks in the planes from our (and clocks' on the ground) perspective have slowed down,
    why haven't the clocks on the ground haven't slowed down from the pilots (and clocks on the plane) perspective?
    How do we exclude the possibility that there was no side effect ruining that experiment, like for example, beeing exposed to more vibrations, or beeing futher away from a big mass like the earth, or whatever?

    Sound has an echo of vibrations that create the sound like for instance playing on a guitar. Soumd does not exist in space or the universe but it does have echoes of vibrations heard by specific radio frequency computer's etc. There is one thing that could create speed that travels faster than light i think the key to this is using vibrational frequencies and turning those frequencies into energy that creates diffrent speeds of frequencies. By creating a certain machine that converts frequency into energy particles that would be released by the engines of a spaceship to create velocity greated than the no weight of the spaceship. Maybe create a solar panel that can absord vibrations of frequencies.

    Since the speed of light, hence the propagation speed of fields, must remain constant for all the other fundamental constants to continue to be proportionally the same, mass (process) has to increase in order to keep up, but to a limit. Once we go over the speed limit and fields can no longer keep up, matter disintegrates. When we reach the speed of light, wavelength and frequency drop to zero, waves become flat, devoid of any information, and we are back to being immaterial empty space.

    Einstein never predicted the existence of wormholes, he just stated that - mathematically - it's not impossible. That's a very different thing. For wormholes to exist, you need something that has never been discovered yet, and is unlikely to exist (at least in great numbers and / or nearby): anti - gravity.
    Without that, wormholes will never be more than "not impossible".

    I've heard that, to measure the speed of light, you can't have something at the other end sending a message when light is detected, because that message also travels at the speed of light. This means that you actually measure how fast light travels from point A to point B, then back to point A, and you have to divide by two and assume that there are no changes in speed. It is possible that light travels instantly from point A to point B, then takes the rest of the time from point B to point A, and we wouldn't be able to know that.
    I can't remember where I read that, so if I'm wrong, don't hesitate to correct me.

      Yes. You saw it on a Veritasium's video possibly. But that is not really a scientifical answer. Like someone answered in the video, the reason we know that speed of light is constant in all directions is not because we measured it, but because we can obtain a wave equation from Maxwell equations that describes electromagnetic waves (light) with a constant speed. This constant speed is a function of other constants, we have the speed of light as a function, we dont necessarily need to verify with an experiment and achieve anything.

      We don't have quantum theory for gravity. There are some indications that it might not be a quantum field at all, and that it might be an emergent property. Understanding the nature of the gravity, including whether it actually exists or is it just an illusion created by more fundamental interactions, is at the forefront of physics and must be tested with experiments, just like anything else.
      We need as many experiments as we can, and we should constantly try to invent new ones, to increase our confidence level in how things actually work. Scholars forgetting that the ultimate judge is an experiment and getting lost in logic/math is a trend that has been going since before physics existed, and has prevented many great minds from realizing their potential.

    'light' emits pressure and the escape velocity from which light emits from atomic structure is constant. Just as wavelengths are simply convenient descriptions of light it doesn't make them as described because they are obviously a form of fluid. light is heavy and it hurts as well as gives us clues to our surroundings, our atmosphere is very heavy and thick just as this light is. 'Time dilation' is simply a product of gravitational force on how we observe time keeping systems. Unless you can tell time without existing it's obviously going to be different based on distances from large gravitational bodies. The sun, the moon, the Earth are all affecting how time keeping systems tick as well as any form of constant acceleration is going to act on these atomic systems and cause perturbation in electron orbits affecting time keeping. Acceleration naturally elongates orbits of orbiting bodies or electrons... this is very well known, but isn't readily observable because the method of action that is acceleration of a body with orbiting bodies is artificial and not practical to even conduct an experiment, but you can easily demonstrate with magnetism. You accelerate a body with magnetic orbits time of orbit will slow down... no time did not slow down.
    Just because these things are calculable with convenient expressions doesn't give credence to the expressions being representative of reality. Humans agreeing on things has no bearing on legitimacy of this school of thought even if the communication results in furthering scientific discovery or even if it can predict phenomena undiscovered. In fact, this agreeableness is hampering other schools of thought from developing. However you can use current agreement to further explain concepts that are more accurate. Energy = the configuration of mass * energy available to reconfigure mass squared. This allows for a space engine to gain speed without propellant simply by spinning itself and using timing mechanism to accelerate itself in a single direction. The method of releasing requires no energy and spinning an object is not relativistic to any other body in existence. So this theory agrees with relativity and can continue to surpass the speed of light just as close orbiting bodies of black holes already surpass the speed of light so can you also eventually get a large body to gain enough speed to surpass the speed at which emission of light from an atomic system happens.

    We're confused about the appearance of our solidity. The baryonic matter of which we're comprised is made of constiuents that ain't that much different than photons whizzing about in place at about lightspeeds. Our mass? Largely a result of the E=mc**2 formula from the energy of those electrons and quarks. Empty space though electromagnetism keeps that solidity thing going. So FTL isnt possible because internally our matter has stuff already moving around at lightspeeds and then what would happen to all those pieces once the rocketship got going?

    Actually, mass doesn't change with velocity - rather, momentum, p, in special relativity, has a non-proportional dependence on velocity. The fallacy that mass depends on velocity, as
    m = γm₀ , where γ = 1/√(1-[v/c]²)
    arises from the false assignment of the "γ" factor in the momentum formula
    p = γm₀v
    to "m," when in fact, it belongs with "v;" that is, it governs the way momentum (not mass) depends on velocity.
    It is also refuted by the different way kinetic energy, T, depends on velocity:
    T = (γ-1)m₀c² ≠ ½γm₀v²
    It is these velocity dependences that mathematically limit |v| < c for any object with mass.

    my guess is that the stresses generated at that speed will either crush a passenger to paste or shred the body at some level. Would need a transit pod or gravity couch,perhaps fluid filled to cushion the body until speed was achieved

      As long as it's not accelerating or decelerating, through truly empty space, you wouldn't notice.
      Unfortunately, actual space isnt really empty. It's very sparsely filled with hydrogen.
      So at about 20% the speed of light, the situation would be similar to burning through an atmosphere traveling inside a used nuclear waste container.

    Go to a concert in a large venue.
    When the lights go on, from turning on the switch to your eyes in the back row is a perfect example of what this video is saying

    The other method of FTL travel outside of wormholes that can bypass relativity is spatial expansion... Space expansions can happen FTL (we can measure galaxies moving away from us faster than the speed of light, because they're not actually moving, space is being "created" between their galaxy and ours making them redshift ftl), this in theory means you can create an warp bubble using exotic matter to contract and expand space around a vessel moving it FTL without technically moving it (basically warp drive in star trek).... physics is fun

    Nice video, 42. One suggestion: When talking about units, if you go imperial please put somewhere on screen the equivalent in metric units. And again thank you for the video, good one!
