This talk was one of the highlights of my professional life! Thank you to the outstanding demonstration team, the organizers, and incomparable staff of the Royal Institution for allowing me the honor of giving this Discourse. I hope to be back on your hallowed grounds someday!

Great venue!

I've never met anybody like you, Brian. Your ability to explain cosmology and astrophysics with such clarity and passion is truly next level. Congrats on yet another career milestone.

That was fabulous. Your delivery was so engaging. It was a real joy to see you lecturing in such an esteemed theatre. Bravo.

Once again Dr. Keating I am amazed at how well you can break down complex ideas and make it engaging for the average viewer to understand!

This was a brilliant talk by Brian and the jokes were not bad too. It answered a few things I had a partial grasp on so I shall return to this one again and again. He weaved the story from Aristotle through Maxwell, Einstein very neatly

Thank you for giving an excellent lecture with clear voice and clear logic. To me, Paul Davis' remarks are quite memorable. "Multiverse explanations are reminiscent of theological discussions.. invoking an infinity of unseen universes to explain the features of the one we do see is just like invoking an unseen Creator. The multiverse theory may be dressed up in scientific language, but it requires the same leap of faith."

Awesome lecture! Dr. K crushing it as always 🙌

Hi Brian. Brilliant lecture. Thanks so much. In the past, Ive dropped in and out of episodes on your KZread channel, with slighty mixed views (get more people on who are not trying to push their latest book) But I thought you amazinly excelled yourself. Such a brilliant lecture, oozing with passion. Thank you so very much. EDIT: Forgot to mention it was one of the best RI lectures I've seen (and I watch them all! ). Shalom.

Wow that is so wonderful to hear!

Did he really pack all of that into one hour? Shame no Q&A, but he didn't waste his chance. Delivery was as always impeccable

One of the best presentations i have seen during recent years at RI. As a person who is following you Mr. Keating on your youtube chanel i knew you are going to deliver... but this was truly an outstanding presentation well beyond any expectations. Congratulations! Happy for you to be there! Well deserved for all the years of your hard work :)

Appreciate the clarifications of the leading theories and hypotheses in the area of bleeding edge physics (cosmology).

Awesome! I was in the UK last week and had the thrill of attending a lecture at RI and visit the museum. I understand your excitement about the place. Fantastic presentation.

I was originally drawn towards RI presentations as a great source of education and still rely on it to expand my knowledge to some extent today. Although nowadays there seems to be too many talks summarising the evolution of the universe, serving as an opportunity for aspiring communicators to test their mettle at the RI. Please don't interpret this as a complaint because there can never be enough communicators of science in the world as far as I'm concerned and the RI is a great place to foster the community but I rarely learn anything new from RI talks any more. However, your presentation stands out as an exception, implementing many of the great ideas discussed in recent years on your show with the smartest thinkers in physics. But most excitingly, I learned something that I've waited on for a long time, the next phase in the follow up to your amazing BICEP2 experiment! I was deeply inspired by your original endeavours and have always hoped that the experiment would get the follow up that it deserves, thanks for this update! Your presentation was one of the most passionately charged I've seen in many years, no doubt capturing the imagination of many young viewers. Well done Dr Keating, I'd call this a home run.

Thank you Dr. Keating for such an enjoyable lecture!

great great talk! WOW. I see a Nobel prize in Brian’s future

Watched the first few minutes by now, I am watching the Prince of presentation 😊 well done!

When is the next live lecture and where? Im crawling to the finish of my doctorate and there are a couple of people, including yourself, who I find incredibly inspiring to listen to. Would love to see a live lecture and shake your hand in gratitude.

you look really well Dr Keating, i was so pleased for you, appearing at the Ri. well done oh and great lecture. but no Einstein finger puppet?

Captivating lecture! Highly informative and entertaining!

wow ok brain blown this was absolutely fantastic.. i loved all the demonstrations i prolly only got about a quarter of it 😬 I'm going to watch it again every six months.. to learn more but also to see what changes over time

As always, your lectures are also intriguing and informative . Very entertaining as well. Thank you

Phenomenal job, Brian!

One alternative point of view and an entertaining and easy-to-understand book about creation, evolution, and the Big Bang debate is Axis of Beginning.

I'm glad that Brian is a scientist that doesn't afraid to put a Genesis into that lecture with so much respect for both religion and science. I really love his approach on searching not even for answers but for proper questions that first need to be asked. Great lecture!

Great lecturer! And brilliant lecture. I loved it and learned a lot. Thank you. ❤️👍

Great performance waww, go go Brain ❤

re Malus Law; most of use viewed this effect through an LED display. Is the effect of Malus' Law apparent when viewed through a screen of LEDs? I think earlier in the talk you mentioned that the light from LEDs is polarised. Would this over-ride the polarising effect of the yellow/blue spots?

Really good delivery.

Excellent👏

Great talk Brian

Great talk!!

Good job five stars

I live in Argentina and we follow the laws of an expanding universe, because inflation never stops...

Amazing. I don't know how I will feel if these B-mode polarizations are found (or not). Either way it will be profound. I remember when "dark energy" was discovered and being dumbfounded that the universe will be infinite. That was one half of the question. The ending. This is the beginning question. Can't wait for the results.

Is conciousness related to the Cosmic Background Radiation ??

🙏♥️ amazing!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!

Nice one Brian!

Ok.. we don't know why it's accelerating, the expansion... but my question... what would it take to stop this ? Hypothetical, i mean... what phenomenon could actually stop it?

Fantastic as usual 👏🏻

In the slide depicting the “Popper status,” Inflation theory is designated as non falsifiable, while the Scalar field is. If the new experiment fails to detect CMB polarisation, that is, no degree size curling to be seen in the data, then, the result points to lack of evidence for a burst of gravitational waves during Inflation. How do you imagine cosmology from there on? Wouldn’t this result disprove the current version of inflation?

I really enjoyed that! Thanks!

Well done Dr. Keating!

Excellent.

Perfectly Timed.

Great lecture!! 👏👏

I do not understand why skipping centuries of development from Greek straight to Newton, as if there is nothing in between !!!

A wonderful talk, but did I miss the part that explained what happened 4 days before the Big Bang?

This classroom is notoriously prideful. I would propose a humility pass to talks given. As a scientist I see the value of this talk but in my field we need to take this with humble pills. Swagger will set us back, just follow the data and be open to possibilities never overly confident in your eliminations.

I see no arrogance here, and I don't see Keating making grand statements of his own work, instead having pride in centuries of successful discovery and the search for truth made by generations of scientists before him. Being a confident orator doesn't make someone prideful (of oneself) or arrogant.

Sweet KZread win two favorite channels as one .

What a tie!!!

Dr Keating & his friend Eric Weinstein are two of my favorite conversationalists.

Who’s better, Einstein or Newton?

The light experiment was cool never realized that what would cause that optical illusion, also moved my head with the one experiment and re-pinched a nerve in my neck which wasnt cool XD

Here is my hero Brian. Sorry Sabine will get mad at you again

29:55 except we literally cannot say that, we are the only known form of life. For all we know there are a billion different combinations of the cosmological constants etc that can make life, we think the set of factors we have are special, but they might not be. They might just be the ones we got, and since they do not change, the atoms and molecules did what they could in the universe they had. They can't pretend they have a different universe, it's just this one, that's it. no others. The settings of the universe aren't interesting, what's intersting is that life evolves under any settings at all.

One observation from the demonstration of orbital planetary phenomenon of planets around a sun, a massive object and a less massive object representing the orbit around there. I note the demonstration indicates the 'Earth's' orbital path will fall into the sun in the future. Just to be sure and for time to pack my bags, will this happen before the Sun goes 💥?

I had no idea that Bruce Campbell moonlighted as a cosmologist.

BICEP2 GO!

Brian Keating is One of the most interesting physicists and experimental physicists today who push the idea of the multiverse forward and I can only say that we are right, the multiverse is the reality of all realities .I support his efforts to prove it experimentally. because reality is fractal final spiral and goes in a circle

God Speed on BICEP 2!

Hang on...we dont know what Energy is or how the concept of Entropy harnesses it...answer what Energy is, we know how to equate it, track it, but what is it!

Why is the RI collaborating with PragerU?

Great presentation, (but on one unrelated point, I beg to differ. There's _no_ comparison between wikipedia and The Encyclopedia Britannica, and wikipedia is NOT the online 'version' or 'edition' of that great set. An innocent mistake, but it bears repeating. If you care about it at all, read on. Originally a different comment, but I copied, then deleted it, and pasted it in here, because I actually have an opinion on the Britannica itself): READING IS FUNDAMENTAL!!! He had to pilfer one!!! I have the complete set of the Britannica; The first printing of the first _edition_ that totally revamped the index to comprehensively organize subject matter in such a way that _finding_ what you want didn't require knowledge of the 'alphabetical order' of topics _related_ to each main entry. True, with that set, I'm 'locked into' the 1982 'knowledge base', but the indexing scheme is so well designed that updating your research to the current state of the art is actually made _easier_ because of how the core of the hardback set is presented. Computers and artificial intelligence are fantastic, but there's a definite advantage to also using just the _index_ of that edition, as it helps you drill down deeper in a manner suggested by the index. It really is quite a bit like having an expert nearby who you can tap on the shoulder and ask "What might I be missing? What other topics might I include?" READING IS FUNDAMENTAL!!!

Great talk, a wee thought though,, if the further away we look the universe is expanding faster and faster does this not mean that the expansion was faster whilst the universe was younger. Seams logical unless I'm missing something.

What does believing in God have to do with intelligence? Belief in God is a logical conclusion based on all history, experience and scientific thought; but, faith is a choice and intelligent people can make extremely bad decisions. Your personal beliefs have nothing to do with science. You choose not to believe in God based on ignorance of the world. You cannot claim moral and intellectual superiority when you don't know anything about your history or the foundations of the cosmos. I'm sensing an overwhelming aura of Dunning Kruger emanating from your presence.

. If there is an infinite number of universes, there must be a universe within which an infinite number of universes does not exist. The fact that your math allows some phenomena to BE true doesn't mean that phenomena IS true. You're chasing your own tail when allowing your math to RULE you.
