Absolutely fascinating. Wish I could go back to school and become an astrophysicist! Thank you for your energy Niba! Need to see you more... You explained it so well so thank you to the writer(s) and you for your energy and apparent excitement. Much love to SciShow!

“Eddies,” said Ford, “in the space-time continuum.” “Ah,” nodded Arthur, “is he? Is he?” He pushed his hands into the pocket of his dressing gown and looked knowledgeably into the distance. “What?” said Ford. “Er, who,” said Arthur, “is Eddy, then, exactly?” Ford looked angrily at him. “Will you listen?” he snapped. “I have been listening,” said Arthur, “but I’m not sure it’s helped.
Wonderful work Niba and SciShow team! It's a very difficult subject and you handled it with rigor, clarity and far more details than usually done on TH-cam channels.
THANK YOU! I absolutely love being able to chew on these thoughts that I've rarely heard of and can barely understand the implications of (seriously). But the thought that "lost" information is simply in a new format inside of a black hole is extremely promising and interesting if you consider the thought of ALL information eventually being lost to black holes. Makes me think of disk/data compression as a form of gravity, and changing from a spinning HDD to a solid state drive as similar to passing information through a digital black hole- gone from the HD (or preserved in its last existing state as a backup/memory) and proceeding in a new storage format. I know it's nowhere near the same, but, helps me try to simplify it into more familiar concepts, I suppose.
I will forever wish to be smart enough to study and learn this stuff, it is fascinating. Until then - thanks SciShow for making cool information easily digestible for us normies 👍🏼
Very cool to see a graphic I sponsored in the same video that featured the Weber garden, which I walked passed every day in undergrad 😂 Loved the video and loved learning the lore behind the UMD landmark
Black holes also have a Charge, so it's Mass, Spin, and Charge Not that I've ever seen mention of charge besides vague attempts to explain hawking radiation But apparently the math says so
Charge doesn't usually get mentioned because the positives and negatives tend to cancel out. A black hole with significant charge (relative to its mass) wouldn't stay that way for long, because it would attract opposite charges and be neutralized.
The universe “remembering” the past through gravity waves is like reconstructing a painting after it was burned. Yes you have some information in the ash but some information is (currently) beyond our technology to decipher. There’s a whole lot of analogies being made here. Hopefully viewers don’t misunderstand this. The universe doesn’t actually have a memory as it doesn’t think. This is about reconstructing the past.
Interestingly enough, I see history as a collective memory. You could say that history doesn’t “think”, yet it is still a memory of what has occurred through all those who can decipher the imprints. Instinct itself, is a form of unconscious memory. It can become conscious through introspection, reflection, contemplation, but it is an impact that exists, influences, and inclines that which it affects regardless of our acknowledgment of it.
Nah. We can do a lot with the cosmic gravitational wave background-that’s why we spent so long measuring it with Fermi. We might not be able to reconstruct everything (thanks quantum mechanics) but we can still see even further back than with the cosmic microwave background, and observe signals from sources LISA and LIGO aren’t sensitive to
I think the word memory could unintentionally give off a displacement (no pun intended) of the actual scenario of what the universe does in response to gravitational phenomena. Like your painting analogy, I would see it as no different than understanding fossils in their original forms, then those in their organic states. It's more like piecing together a record made of natural information rather than empirical information via sensory experience, like archeological, palaeontologic, or anthropologic records and so on. We can look at this process as being of natural history more than just astrophysics and theoretical physics. Even the consideration of using black holes in finding gravitational records is synonymous with the nature of how black holes result of Hawking radiation, and it's relationship with quantum gravity, looking deeper into the records of how gravitational signatures are displaced and left behind in the universe.
The difficulty in understanding "spacetime" - and really get an idea how that could be possible explanation of anything? - was beyond my capabilities until I reasoned: 1. A straight line is "kinda" defined by the way light moves. 2. Light has energy can rotate a small device called Crookes Radiometer. Photons have an ultraminuscule kind of mass. 3. Light has no time. It "kinda" defines time, but if you ride a photon you will not experience time (they say, the knowledgeable guys 😅did they try?) When taking these things into my inner universe I can suddenly see why gravitation bends light. I can also see that curving the space is a nice explanation to why gravity is a thing - but honestly, at that point I jump off, with all due respect, I don't think that is the reason for gravity (as if there need to be a reason at all).
What if I am right ... ? it does not mean that science as presented here is wrong, it is mostly the words and analogies I fear will misguide people like my younger self.
The odd shape we detect space as being after a gravitational wave is not the result of just that single wave. The state it was in BEFORE our test was the result of the state it was left in from the previous gravitational interactions BEFORE our observation.
Going by their premise, it would seem logical that each grav wave would modify space time. So yes, how would they disentangle all the different modifications that have happened through time? Going by their analogy, are they implying that you can look at a lake and determine all the times a pebble was thrown into it? And where it was thrown?
I did see a dinosaur sneeze (many times). I have two pet parrots, and birds are dinosaurs. I've seen my parrots sneeze a number of times. (Interesting video, by the way!) 😉😉
I remember the first time I learned light from other stars could be very old depending on their distance. My immediate thought was that looking at the earth light from our star obviously reflects back into space, so to someone far away we might look like a dinosaur planet still. My next thought was could we find a reflection of that light and zoom in for a video of our past. Sadly this isnt likely, but it did spark an interest in space.
in a metaphorical sense, everything we do has an impact, leaving traces in the form of consequences, effects on the environment, and influences on those around us
Got me thinking. Might an object massive enough moving 'that-a-way' fast enough leave a "wake" in spacetime that LIGO or LISA or other like them could detect?
"we'll never see a dinosaur sneeze" Non-avian, maybe! Pretty easy to find footage of avian dinosaurs. :P

I always thought GWs were caused by the movement of objects, since the change in their gravitational influence propagates at the speed of light. That's not a GW apparently, and GWs are caused by acceleration, not just movement.
At the risk of demonstrating that I didn't understand this, I wonder if looking at the universe's memory, should it become possible, could reveal what happened in historical events or crimes...
What I don't understand is everyone claims when something goes into a black hole it continues on past the event horizon, but as things accelerate to the speed of light, time essentially stops... so the only way for them to go past the event horizon is for an infinite amount of time to pass in the rest of the universe... so shouldn't all the information of what went in to a black hole basically just hang out at the event horizon until the end of time?
From an observer's point of view, yes. But that information would be redshifted into infinity. And also two-dimensional, like the shadow of a 3D object projected onto a surface. To my understanding anyways. I'd imagine at some point it becomes impossible to distinguish from noise.
Before the wave passes you, its energy is on one side. After it passes you, its energy is on the opposite side. Since energy produces gravity, that's a permanent shift in the total gravitational field around you. ...or at least I think so. It's a guess really. Hard to believe that effect is measurable.
Brb, advocating for RAM to be changed to RAI Less cheekily, memory has many definitions. Language isn't a rigid thing whose purpose is to conform to rules derived from the observation of it (that's putting the cart before the horse). Its purpose is to communicate, and I'd wager most understand what the title is trying to convey: not a consciousness but a medium by which there is a record (of sorts) of past events.
It's tough to comprehend what the universe is when you actually start considering we are it witnessing itself. We get seemingly working math to work out universal constants that are just arbitrary values (with profound importance for the stability of our reality, I understand). We have the ability to ask and possibly answer any and every question. *like the universe wants something from us* Science needs to be correlating how consciousness and memory work with quantum dynamics and our understanding of reality as a *Social Necessity* so that we can both understand ourselves and how this universe works
memory as in storage of information, it's why roulette wheels are always random, the system stores no information about it's previous states, so is not affecteed by them in any way and hence each outcome is random and every number erqually likely with each spin
What exactly is being measured to find gravity waves? Last I heard gravitons were still theoretical. So what exactly is being measured to detect a gravity wave?
Odd observation but the mic must be well placed because your voice does not sound too loud when I use my headphones. This is usually a big issue when I watch the other hosts.
Makes sense because as gravitational waves expand they lose energy to space so they leave a lasting change on the space they move through. The energy must go somewhere if not conserved within them.
Actually it just spreads out, diluting constantly and inversely squared due to the 3 dimensions of our universe. it does not leave any energy "behind", the bubble expands and passes through spacetime.
So does this mean even in trillions of years when every star and black hole has died out and every particle has decayed and the universe is heat dead. There might be some ripples of space left over?
Niba did such an excellent job! I love the little comments and expressions she brought to the video. Look for ward to seeing more of her!

Just saw Alien Romulus , the gravity generators turning on and off were so cool! Nice return to core aliens !
Would decoding the information of a black hole require a universe sized computer and a universe sized measuring device?
Me: "Hey Lisa I heard you're going into space!"
Lisa: "Uhh, what?"
You lost me talking about black hole hair styles 😅

Great video, thank you very much , note to self(nts) watched ……
More Niba! Sorry Hank.
haha, I don't think he'll be too upset by this!
Good morning SciShow!
I love this
So the Universe has stretch marks too... that's reassuring ☺
I will now forever be sad about not getting to see a real dino sneeze. I feel like it would be adorable.... at least from a very safe distance...
What dino?
So does this mean even in trillions of years when every star and black hole has died out and every particle has decayed and the universe is heat dead. There might be some ripples of space left over?
What if black holes are a type of "atomic hard drive"?
