Lawrence Krauss: Why Are We Here? | Town Hall Seattle

Award-winning theoretical physicist and bestselling author Lawrence Krauss (The Physics of Star Trek, A Universe From Nothing) is not afraid to court controversy. In 2015, he made waves when he published an essay in The New Yorker with the headline: “All Scientists Should be Militant Atheists.” He also stormed out of a 2013 London debate entitled: “Islam or Atheism: Which Makes More Sense?” because the audience was segregated by gender in keeping with Muslim traditions. Krauss found this untenable. He later returned to the stage and shared his opinion that this sort of religious observance was inappropriate at a public college. In his new book, The Greatest Story Ever Told-So Far: Why Are We Here? Krauss explores the furthest reaches of space and time and the natural forces that govern our existence. He challenges us to re-envision ourselves and our place within the universe.

    at 48:40 he talks about how the magnet waves are bounced off of the superconductor. lately I've been reading about radio transmission polarity. to reduce interference from your own signal, you can use a circularly polarized antenna. it propagates the wave in a spiral shape with either a left hand twist or right hand twist to the shape of the wave so that any reflections off of objects bounce off in reverse (LH turns to RH) and is not picked up as interference due to the antenna looking for a specific left or right waveform. is there anything of that nature relevant to electromagnetic waves? or is it specifically the frequency modulation aspect of radio? or would it not matter since the wave is still carrying a signal/energy, regardless of the shape of it's propagation through space. sincerely, uneducated me.

    When I watch him at the Nobel Conference 49, I'm struck by how quick to assume the other scientists and professors are -- and how steadfast Krauss is to remain skeptical. He's illuminating that way of thinking even among his mostly-like-minded (and established) peers. So, I don't consider him a luminary for his physics exactly, but for the fact that I'm inspired by his critical thinking and for his generosity in sharing it to the public.

    Thought puzzles: With infinity and eternity everything that is possible, is probably inevitable. We are here, therefore we are possible. Perhaps endlessly repeating? (Heidegger- Being and Time?) Just as nothing (no-thing) lasts forever, nothingness can't last forever. Our being here seems almost impossible until you factor in infinity and eternity. We were inevitable. Which is more likely, or harder to conceive?: Infinity or non-infinity? Eternity or non-eternity?

    1)Yeah..why spend money COLLECTED FROM the people..on the people. Let's pay defense contractors more right? In 2015, the world's countries spends about $1.6 trillion on defense, U.S accounts for 37% of total. U.S. is a 4.3-4.5% of the world pop. You think this country spends enough on defense? 2) If you want to increase the U.S budget by cutting defense and that amount spending on the sciences, I agree.

He devalues the belief of others, in fact he has said that we are "Cosmic pollution" which disparages all of us. He says it with a smile. I my opinion he despicable.

    1) You're missing the second part, "at a constant speed." Moving at a constant velocity from your reference frame is indistinguishable from being static. See calculus, if your velocity is a constant its derivative is zero hence static, hence indistinguishable. 2) Right, without leaving the earth and changing your reference frame, you can't perform an experiment to determine which body is moving and with which relation. I.E. Two trains moving at a constant velocity in opposite directions, without changing reference frames, you couldn't determine if train one was moving, one was static and the other moving, etc.

    I do prefer to listen to the Prof's educational lectures, (like the direct approach), because in my own experience, the problem with getting taught one particular way of describing the world is that the effort to reverse the process and unlearn is twenty times longer than learning. (it turned out to be right) So the better plan is to carry on with what you know, but make it as complete as time and ability allows. Maybe it's a matter of natural symmetry, and "you can't teach pigs to sing", so always be constructive. (?) AI will replace the intelligent humans, but what about the rest then? At least there will be plenty of time to follow the path of Faraday, or is that already true?

    Electricity has surface waves and vibration and alignment. But magnetic field curves spaces with a flower spring action for movement. Mostly electric motors run with spring action of twisted lines of forces of magnetic fields. That's why they induce ahead of time for electric vibration to travel. Otherwise electricity cannot travel. Induction is a process of looking ahead. Impedance is opposite and that's why you have to bend the electric coil in such a way that force power is on a line or a circular or elliptical. The elliptical is always the true way because of lookahead. In a nucleus it is the lines of curves of a magnetic field that are curved so much to trap electrons in its position. The centre of black holes should have massive electron traps in magnetic fields. Time is a curvature ratio of fields. Heating is always an impedance curve. That's why you have so much heat in the stars. Normal atoms don't have impedance so not much heat. Can you bend lasers for propulsion. Or at least quantum computing.

How did I miss the George Washington administration. Or Lincoln"s Gettysburg address? Where was I over 2000 years ago when Jesus supposedly gave the Sermon On the Mount. Gee, I sure wasn't around in those caveman and dinosaur days. Where the hell was I to miss all that! Oh, I know. I had to be a gleam in my father's eye! :)
