could it be that beyond the edge of the observable universe matter is moving faster than the speed of light therefore we cannot see it?

What happens to a black hole when it is done sucking in everything? My brain wonders if the Big Bang is a never-ending cycle and they keep occurring with black holes filling up and then exploding out again, flinging matter all over the universe.

One thing- We might travel faster than speed of light. Argument we never will is stupid because special relativity gives us an equation of relativistic time when speed is less than speed of light constant. But there is a complete possibility there can be equations that might exist of how time would pass when we cross the light barrier. We don’t have enough information to discredit it.

Dark matter is described as invisible matter. Why can’t dark matter be an inaccuracy in the way we calculate the mass of stars. Or something like an inaccurate theory. Is that what’s meant by invisible?

January 7, 2022 at 1:25 pm
I actually disagree with him on a couple things. I am an astrophysicist myself. When he mentioned that you can’t go faster than the speed of light. We do think it is actually possible but we don’t know how. Theoretically, if we had an accelerator with an infinite amount of power/fuel that is used at a faster rate at which light accelerates constantly you would realize that I have no idea what I am talking about. Sorry 🙂

Seeing as it is impossible to measure the speed of light, how do we know how fast it is?
Is there some kind of equation used based on principles?
C B
January 7, 2022 at 2:29 pm
Based on logic, if we know the universe is expanding, how can we not find the true centre?
and what is filling the gaps? Dark matter?
How is it possible to make something out of nothing? (doesn’t that defy physics?)

In space, the ISS travels at a great speed relative to the Earth, but it appears no one feels any g-force. I am guessing g-force is based on the Earth itself.
As a result, is it possible that a human could travel nearly infinitely fast, without feeling any effect?
Does there need to be a quite large gravitational pull for us to feel a force?
Random Person
January 7, 2022 at 3:56 pm
It might seem unintuitive but the ISS is constantly falling towards the Earth. Without gravitational force, it would fly off in a straight line. The Earth attracts the ISS and keeps it in orbit. So, astronauts don’t feel any force just like somebody who is falling doesn’t feel a force.

That speed of light question/answer requires more explaining : you CAN travel faster than the speed of light in a given media. Look up the Tcherenkov effect, where some particles go faster than the speed of light in a particular media where the speed of light is lower than 300 000 km/s. Say a media has an optical index of 1.2. Then the speed of light here is 250 000 km/s. Some particles can go at 270 000 km/s, so they’re faster than light in the media, but they’re still not faster than 300 000 km/s. So nothing is faster than the speed of light IN A VACUUM. However that doesn’t mean that teleportation isn’t possible (maybe), since you don’t really “travel” or have “momentum” when you teleport. So those energy considerations that are talked about in the video don’t apply here (potentially).

Stupid question: You said, that you’d need an infinite ammount of energy to go with the speed of light? How does the light itself do it? My fleshlight doesn’t produce infinite energy, and yet…
Told you it’s a stupid question 😀

You need energy to accelerate any mass (e.g. a spaceship), however, light doesn’t have any mass.

Follow up to the “have the amount of (dark) matter been the same since t = 0” question. Yes the mass/energy content of the universe obey conversation laws and time symmetry… i get that. But what I don’t get is the unconserved energy if photons redshifted by cosmic expansion. Wheres the accounting on that? Does it come free with a positive cosmological constant? I hate the explanation that it “simply isn’t conserved” Its the one thing I struggle to understand.
Erik Andersson
January 7, 2022 at 11:39 pm
While I did enjoy an astrophysicist coming in and I love this guy’s energy, I think some answers shouldn’t be answered so shortly, there are sometimes a lot of room for explanations to the answers, even if they would be somewhat shallow. Just answering with yes/no/another short “obvious” answer and laugh about it will only appeal to the ones who already know the answer. I don’t think that’s the point of this series, right?

January 8, 2022 at 1:04 pm
But if it were possible to have an experiment in which you have to travel a large amount of distance and thereby teleportation is possible then doesn’t it technically mean you are faster than the speed of light? Because velocity= space/time and you’ve two points in space, the beginning of the teleportation and the end. So the amount of speed is equal to the difference between those points divided by time. I know it’s teleportation but it’s not like you suddenly don’t exist anymore in the process of travelling that huge distance.
I understand general relativity and I understand why we can’t go faster than the speed of light, but I still wonder if this is a correct assumption to make. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Ryan
January 8, 2022 at 1:24 pm
Technically, the amount of time it would take to teleport between to points would still take the same amount of time it would take light to travel between those two points, unless you able to break physics and rearrange subatomics particles in space time.
Ryan
January 8, 2022 at 1:24 pm
Because information cannot travel faster than light, I don’t believe it is possible to travel faster than the light itself, unless you are able to teleport outside of space time itself which is another theory in itself.
Marlon Valcq
January 8, 2022 at 1:33 pm

Buck Anderson
January 9, 2022 at 3:01 am
I wonder if dark matter could be a form of constructive or destructive wave interference. I also think that black holes cause expansion in the universe and possibly even matter itself because gravity is no different than acceleration but since matter isn’t accelerating in any single direction it is accelerating in all directions which means it doesn’t have any additional motion through space but rather the motion is of space itself. The expansion of the universe is based on the motion of matter so it makes sense that matter is either linked to or is the cause of expansion especially black holes which are constantly collapsing in on themselves. Maybe there is a balance between gravity and expansion where gravity causes expansion and expansion causes gravity.

I omce thought that Dark matter are “out of energy” fotons… becausewe understand that fotoms interects with matter, just like any other matter, but it would require energy so fotos are a kind of matter that we do not fully understand, and once it lose its speed and energy in someway, it do not just disappear, it becomes dark matter, and how we do not understand fotons we wouldnt understand it..

What if the universe just expands for a while then suddenly is pulled back by dark matter into a tiny ball of energy and “big bangs” again in a continuous cycle. Either that or the whole universe is really just a string like in string theory that makes up and even larger universe and matter and beings.

I think you could elaborate on some of your answers a bit more, because some of them came out a bit misleading – like, turning on your headlights while travelling at the speed of light *does* emit light at the speed light, but you could interpret that to mean that the light would pool in your headlights. No, the light is emitted at the speed of light *relative* to you, so it would be the same as any other time you turn on your headlights. That might make it sound like the light is now travelling at twice the speed of light, but no. The speed of light in a vacuum is always the speed of light, irregardless of who’s observing it and how fast they’re travelling.
You could also mention *why* you can’t travel faster than the speed of light, because I think that’s something that just seems like an arbitrary thing to people. The speed of light is not… really the speed of light. It’s the speed of causality, or information. Information about an event can only travel so fast throughout the universe and particles without mass travel at this maximum speed. Then you can also imagine that if you *were* to travel faster, you would be travelling faster than information, which creates all kinds of logical issues that break causality.
I would also add to the edge-of-the-universe question that imagining an expanding universe as not having an edge makes a lot more sense if you picture the universe as the surface of an expanding balloon, where every spot on the surface expands at an equal rate and there is no border to speak of. Not that the universe is necessarily a round sphere – the universe could be like a differently shaped balloon, or be infinitely big – but that’s one way to picture expansion without an edge.

Okay, so, BD+17°3248 is a star that’s 13.8±4 Billion Years old, so the question is that is our Universe really 13.77Billion Years old or maybe something more? Referring to the UBC Lectures on Vedic Philosophy as well. Also, referring to recent Hubble Telescope discovers of star clusters.
Brian Plum
January 15, 2022 at 7:46 am
This guy says the “universe is 13.77 billions years old, plus or minus a 100 million years”. Any freshman physics student knows it’s wrong to include 0.07 billion as the last significant digit if the margin of error is +/-100 million.

Follow up question to that on Parallel Universes: is it worth thinking instead that the “infinite parallel universes” are not existing simultaneously but rather all across time one after another, since time itself is infinite but the universe-massive though it may be-is going through big bang>expansion>contraction>singularity🔄 all with the same “finite” contents but on different trajectories and therefore variations each time it begins anew? 🙊 Idk, i’m having fun with the thought

Ive few doubts.
1. As we know speed is relative, it just changes according the perspective of an individual. According to us ( whom we live on earth speed of light is 299 792 458 m / s, where as the speed of light might be something else hypothetically for those who live in alien planets right ?
2. As heating objects, matters,atoms etc (things) expand. Our earth also have certain amount of temperature and the temperature now is increasing, can we expect that earth is expanding?

it doesnt. astrophysics explains how this world works and why it works the way it does, but it doesnt explain why or how it was made. Look back at when he was talking about the big bang. He said he couldnt explain what caused the big bang, meaning that something, someone, formed it. Even if it was the result of existing galaxies dying, collapsing and reforming or just a simulation, something still caused it to happen.The Astrophysics isnt to disprove religion, it’s to help humans have a greater connection to this universe that we live in.

Dimensions are not the same as say, the sides of a tesseract, or hypercube. These infinite dimensions are inside of eachother, entangled, neighboring, co-existing, and more. Every choice ever made created branch realities. We can actually make some level of contact with our alternate selves. It is a hive mind situation, spanning the omniverse. How do I know this? Well, if you don’t know, experiment with your mind until you are it’s master. Disassociatives seem to be the brighter conduit for the cross-platform exchange of acquired and compiled memories, emotions, and fears. BE an alternate you for a few minutes. You will understand.

Isn’t Jupiter about 1/70th or 1/80th of the minimum stellar mass? If it were twenty times bigger, would that mean eighty times the mass? It’s volume would be twenty times greater, but it’s mass might increase more because it would be more dense. Or would it? My high school science education did not provide me with the skills to figure this out on my own.
