We’ve come a long way in our understanding of dark energy. In previous episodes we’ve looked at how our universe is paradoxically flat and how dark energy is exponentially accelerating the expansion of the universe. In this episode of Space Time we dive into the true nature of dark energy and how its antigravity effect and its other properties are having such bizarre effects on our universe.

    I'm 5 years late commenting here (this channel is best experienced from start to finish), but for anyone who likes how Matt explains the math in a way that is accessible to laypeople while keeping the hand-waving away to a minimum will probably also like Dr Don Lincoln (a particle physicist) who runs the Fermilab KZread channel. Don gets a little more into the math but he also spends more time taking you carefully through the equations. After I watch a topic on here I'll often go to find the same subject on Fermilab's channel, it can be very helpful to get two different styles of teaching on the same subject in the physics! I'd love to see them do a collab video sometime.

I love going over the equations, since I always feel a huge hole when I'm told "Because Math", without at least seeing the math (And most of the time you guys do throw the equation in the background, which eases my mind). In this case it was perfect to bring it in, because the most advanced it ever got was "Negative * Negative = Positive". I'd be happy to see even more math sometime, at any level of ability.

    Nick, Their is no positive nor negative states of existence in the universe, their is only the comparative states of mass and forces.. A bar magnet has to us a positive and a negative pole. They repel each other and we give then our designations of positivity or negativity but actually they are equal in mass and magnetic field properties and as that law of physics applies which states that opposites attract and equals repel. Both ends of a bar magnet have the same mass and magnetic field force. It is we who choose to call one positive and the other negative

    In all seriousness, just like Einstein thought of the cosmological constant as a placeholder for something we didn't yet understand, I think the same thing goes for dark energy and matter for that matter, as a way to help physicists sleep at night, to keep them from panicking when they realize that nineteen-twentieths of the universe they look in the general direction of and say "I see you" [a lie they tell themselves], "but I have no idea what you are" and then go back to experimenting with the one-twentieth they can actually interact with and measure (and half of those things we can't directly see, either, but only their interactions with other things -- I think Eric Weinstein *_might_* be the guy finally barking up the correct tree with his very-incomplete Geometric Unity, where he's essentially showing a third of our particles to be illusory). Speaking of Eric, he says that he immediately knows someone can't be taken seriously if they ever say "lol" -- fair enough, no one should take me seriously. But I had to "lol" at your implication that Einstein is the guy who wasted 4 years in college. I think that's an easy indicator of someone to not take seriously. We're still looking at the best explanation for the fabric of the stuff we're swimming around in, and it's pretty obvious from your conceit on a subject you barely understand that you aren't going to ever be adding anything to it.

Of course if we do that, we'd all want to slit our throats and cancer would no longer be much of a problem anymore. You gotta have some fun in life or premature death is going to be preferable.

    I get very tired of people who complain about space exploration spending with arguments similar to: "We have social problem X, we must fix social problem X before doing special task Y! Anything else is immoral/wrong." This argument is like a parent telling their children, "Well, mom has diabetes, so we'll spend as much as we feel is necessary to make her happy, but we won't save for your college education." It is shortsighted and wrong. Humanity is a going-concern. We don't spend most of our life energy raising the next generation because the future isn't important. The future of humanity is *everything*. It is unfortunate that some people contract diseases and die. But there is no historical precedent for humanity ever being disease free. One might argue that humans actually live in symbiosis with disease and it could not be any other way. Human death from disease is unfortunate on an individual level, but from a species point of view, it is constructive, even a source of strength. Adopting a myopic view of human problems, expecting that human effort be spent to guarantee each individual get an equal shot at life is a waste of energy. If, on the other hand, humans spend their excess energy reaching for the stars... then we'll be doing something that we have no record of an intelligent species in the universe actually doing to this point. What's more important? attempting to make humanity perfect, it's home (earth) perfect, it's social systems perfect? Are those really more important than expending the knowledge and experience of the only self-aware beings known in the universe? Remember the quote... "Perfect is the enemy of the good." It's a no brainer. I may die of cancer. I may die of heart disease. I may die earlier than "my time" because of an unfortunate accident. But if I ever came back from the grave and saw fellow humans spending more time trying to prevent normal human deaths rather than pursuing their intellect, I would consider myself lucky to be dead.

    @@markthebldr6834 It looks like a popular magazine story that typically lowdegree graduates and the youngest scholars like ,without much pondering or skeptical evaluation . Make no mistake, the subject is exiting. A couple of questions : 1 What is expanding and how? If space is empty, it cannot expand. All of standard physics model theory as well as Bohr, Mickelson-Morley (Einstein "in a way") builds on a literally empty space with physical matter in it. If cosmos does expand like from or by a cosmic inflation/dark energy effect, space is however literally aetherial. There is more than just a small contradiction there. If space is literally empty, there is no expansion, only internal infinities of dynamics. Only special relativity ("SR"/"STR") and magnetism. Gravity and other forces ,energies are there anyways. 2 "Flattens out"? There is no evidence of that. Flattens out into what ? Relative to what? 😅 If space is a vacuum, fluctuative or not, what is outside of our universe? If it is however a UNIverse ,there is no possibility of that. If we have a local blob cosmos in a multiverse ,inflative or not, we have a local cosmos being an aether (a word from greek yritha, an expression in monad-pythagorean cosmology and geometry). 3 Did you read all the work of Miles Mathis? Do that . His name and dot com. 4 Any force pulling against an expansion from the inside of a universe , if einsteinian gravitational , pulls on the outer objects. Are we talking about expansion of baryonic matter movement or expansion of space, or both? How/why? Much of mainstream explanation now just looks like compromises . I guess it secures subsidies to make it look fancy.

    If you fall into a black hole right now, that what is closer to the singularity, will fall faster that than what is further. However, space before and after you, is falling in with you. So from each General Relativistic perspective of "you", because there would be no inertial frame to orient yourself (you could see), it would seem, like you are standing still, with all matter in your personal observable universe expanding in all directions, in an accelerating manner, as all of "you" gets ripped to individual sub atomic particles. What if that has already happened, what if the Hubble Horizon is just our personal event horizon, as seen from the "inside", and Dark Energy, is just due to extreme tidal effects?

Keep in mind your perception would only begin after an immense duration of time has passed in the universe. The black-hole would be much later into its life-span.

    +Mark Fudge No, you're not lost. These so-called theoretical physicists are lost. What they are talking about is theoretical stuff. "String theory," gravity waves, dark energy, dark matter, etc., etc. This is not physics. This is theory. The real problem in Einstein's great equation is in relationship to the equal sign ( = ). What Heisenburg was trying to say was that the observer is effecting the situation. ( what is = to what )? (Consciousness is effecting the equation.) In short, scientists have to seemingly leave out the hidden factor called 'consciousness'. Because they can't measure it or verify its actual existence; they simply leave it out of the equation. ( = ) Wrong! Consciousness proceeded light and it speed (Big Bang). Consciousness is the one omnipresent constant upon the whole of the universe. In the equation E = m c 2, "c 2" really should stand for the constant of Consciousness squared (matter). Consciousness is the cause of light and its speed, not the other way round. Not until they understand will they be able to move faster than the speed of light and be simultaneously present in multiple places (and times) at the same time. Thus: faster than light travel. At least, that's part of the way I see it. CVD

    It's simple, negative pressure means expansion because that pressure is constant throughout the universe, so there is no difference between any two regions of the universe. Thus, there is nowhere for that pressure to equalize to. The relativistic effects of that pressure though is shown through math to have an anti-gravity expansion effect. There is no simile or metaphor that is adequate to explain this. All you need to know is that it happens and the math shows it happens. I guess I didn't say anything new.. so just ignore me. Accepting it without the need of understanding is very tough, but that's your best bet.

    Great video (and videos), It might even make the idea I've always had for this accelerating axpansion of the Universe seem even sillier than before. It's such a simple and seemingly obvious idea that I find it strange that I've never seen it mentioned or even just simply explained away before. Well here it is: Could the accelerating expansion of the Universe be due the unimaginably colossal expanse of nothingness beyond the limits of the Universe? So continually dragging the matter of the Universe into it like a vacuum cleaner? I thought I'd still better mention this even though I'm starting to appreciate more the ideas behind dark energy more after watching this video.

It's always because of math, friend.

    Elastic force seems like the perfect way to define negative energy. I love the analogy of rubber bands pulling inward that was used to define negative pressure. It’s almost like because positive force pulls outward while negative force pulls inward, infinite expansion can be created. If the relativistic effect of negative energy mathematically has to be opposite to positive energy, then wouldn’t the volume of positive energy in a given space dictate the velocity of expansion in that given space?

    Dark energy is not conserved in an expanding universe, but normal energy still is. If dark energy is a constant across all space, it means that we probably can't use dark energy in any practical manner, as we would have to change it's form, or location to use it, which would not be possible while keeping it constant.

    Is it possible that the concervation of energy still works in expanding universe? If vacuum has constant energy and the more vacuum the more energy maby its comming from matter. Think of it that way: the universe is cooling since it began. Cooling means emiting photons. Photons lose energy when they travel through expanding space (they become redshifted) So maby thats the energy sorce for expansion. And why the expansion is accelerating? Maby its just like in Hawking radiation of black holes - the black hole emits more energy expanencialy. If in the future all matter will end in black holes and then gets emited as photons then after infinite time these photons will lose all energy (wavelengh = infinity) which means they will stop existing. In that universe there will be only vacuum. And since you have just vacuum its immpossible to tell if the universe is expanding or not. And that point in time could happen sooner than in infinity. If energy is not infinitly devisible but insted comes in packets (probably true)

Too much space-time and not enough matter is the literal definition of heat death.

    The reality is space time is expanding and you can write equations about it but it may just be an unknow state of space time that is and has to be accepted. If the Universe were once a dense plasma it would have to been like the interior of a black hole and have no future. This primordial black hole was torn apart by this expanding space time that grabbed ahold of every particle and accelerated it to a speed to overcome the gravity of the largest and probably densest black hole imaginable. It flashed over into atoms once the density became low enough (the poorly named big bang) and it continued to pull these atoms apart at a speed high enough so it would not reform into a black hole. When the density became tolerable for universe type things like stars and galaxies it slowed down and is currently expanding at a speed we cannot perceive locally, but the fact is the local space around us is either stretching or adding more empty space all the time and carrying us farther from item who's gravitational effects cannot overcome it. There may be math behind it but nothing more interesting than a very dense plasma (without expansion) or near zero density fundamental particles (with a single initial expansion rate fast enough to tear a black hole apart) would exist if this precise recipe of expansion was not followed, it does not appear to be luck or chance.

Basically, when you try to actually calculate the energy density of space based on the idea of virtual particles, your prediction is thousands of orders of magnitude off of what the experimentally-observed energy density of space actually is. That's kind of a problem for the whole dark energy=virtual particles idea.
