    Imagine how lucky we are to have in our body mechanisms that can translate electromagnetic waves with different frequencies and wave lengths into colors to see our ironically beautiful colorless universe, acoustic waves into vibrations in the eardrum that our brain translates into sounds something which doesn't even exist in the world but was defined by humans, a huge system that covers every millimeter in our body and responds to internal and external forces by sending electric signals to our brain, and of course amazingly complicated connections between neurons that create an enormous structure of information stored in an unbelievably small place. After all this, it feels wrong to call even the stupidest person in the world, stupid.

    Is the universe all the matter that exists, or the space that the matter exists in? If it is the former, and the galaxies and nebulae are moving away from each other, maybe it is the outward motion or expansion of matter that is infinite. Space then is absolutely nothing and the 'universe' only exists as long as matter itself exists.

    Mate, once again you have absolutely blown my mind. I’m still working through the relationship between pure science and meaning. Somewhere I’ve seen a theologian speak of science and philosophy as a complimentary set of concepts. You have brought these 2 so brilliantly in this video. Your emphasis on kindness and compassion oin your closing remarks were really inspiring and resonated with the way I feel about the world. Keep up the good work!

    “The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.” "H.P. Lovecraft"

    The way Prof. moves from objectivity of science to the deep philosophical questions attached with space discovery is just seamless, and just shows the balance one needs to strike between objectivity and subjectivity. Without losing the magic of the universe and without making the errors of religion, he amazingly brings out the spiritual journey that he himself has been through, so that we can be through it as well.

    I've been around this subject of infinity and the multiverses (local or temporal). The concept that everything that may happen happens an infinite amount of times through infinity isn't new for me. That been said... One and an half year ago, my 8 months old daughter choke with a piece of toy. When she was turning blue and passing out I did what was like impossible, I grabbed it with the tip of my fingers through her tiny mouth and throat and pulled it out. I hurt her so much that my wife and I had to take her to the hospital right after. My baby took a week to fully recover. But something was off. When everything was in the balance, I felt like chance did it. It was highly improbable. It just happened independent of anything. I had many nightmares after that of me living my life after this event gone wrong. I even had a nightmare about a funeral, and that frightened me the most. It's like that in many other probable universes the outcome was definitively bad. How lucky am I to exist in one of many universes where I can see my daughter grow up? So in this infinite fractal of chaos, I'm the luckiest man there is. :) Be grateful for what you have, an infinite many others of you may didn't get that chance.

    well, that's better than screening your crack. i think. the universe isn't a 2 dimensional flat plane no more than the earth is flat. that's the silliest thing i ever heard. we can observe this fact. regardless of what side of the earth we're on, or side of the sun we're on, we can see the universe in ALL directions. nor is the universe infinite. nor is the universe a UNI-verse. in fact the universe is so un-flat there's an infinite number of dimensions we can't even experience much less observe. so this universe of ours goes off into more directions than we can even begin to comprehend. the universe does indeed curve back on itself. NOTHING IS INFINITE. if nothing in the universe is infinite why would the universe, itself, be infinite? its neither infinite in space or in time. it has a physical, undetectable boundary and a time limit as well. if you ever reach the "edge" of space your instruments will show you continuing in a straight line but you'll actually be curving back into the universe. and no one's mentioning the physical impact our multi-verse has on other universes. just because we can't see these universes doesn't mean they don't have a physical effect on each other. i have spoken. i am legend. i am my own god! so there.
