"Advanced" is a relative term. The only thing we know for sure that is more "advanced" than ourselves is the universe itself, as a whole, since it is what we came from. Any other "living thing" is going to be more advanced and less advanced at the same time, just like literally every single living thing on this planet is more advanced and less advanced than us. A worm is more advanced than us in its own ways. Same with a bacterium. There's this odd notion that there's going to be other life out there using radio to transmit prime numbers or something. That's like expecting a spider to use photosynthesis. We'll never be able to communicate with another lifeform, at least not any more than we communicate with our close relatives, like apes and cats. Evolution requires this, unfortunately. We are officially alone.

Mrs. Kumiko Kerch's theory of a regenerative structure pervading the universe in Matthewave 935, is an idea that Martin hesitatingly embraces at the end. I predicted that certain names would rise to the fore as descriptive of the mathematics involved in the wave function. The 935 implied in Christ 935US, for instance, represents an ordering central to the core of Matthewave 935 and also it is the sum of her cross intervals. The name, Kumiko also has a soundalike in 9, 3, and 5 in Japanese through the numbers kyu-mittsu-go, i.e. 9, 3 things, and 5. I explored the numbers that bore out a 'phi' relationship when set as a fraction. I explored if any of the resulting fractions matched a popular name in their language. I found a match in Dreyfus which in Frisian sounds like Drei, meaning 3, and Fiifs meaning 5. It is also interesting to note that Dreyfus carries a meaning of 'tripod' or a pot with 3 legs or an elderly person with a cane. As such it lends itself as an answer to a slightly modified riddle of the Sphinx: Who walks on four legs in the morning, two legs in the afternoon, and three legs in the evening? Dreyfus! A typical man with a cane has five appendages: two arms, two legs, and one cane, three of which touch the ground. I concluded due to its similarity to three-fifths, and to Jesus, it is one of a shortlist of names one may reasonably predict for the name of a religious leader in this world, and even beyond.

We infer the existence of dark energy from our measurements of the size and age of the universe, and the motion of objects in it. Basically the universe is bigger and expanding faster than we would expect, and we call the reason for that dark energy because something is pushing the galaxies apart. One of the ways we measure the size of the universe is through what we call 'standard candles'. These are particular types of stars that always have the exact same brightness and mass. If we see one of the stars in a distant galaxy, since we know how much light it is producing, we can calculate it's distance based on it's apparent brightness. there are several other techniques, and we match these up to cross check them.

it seems like many of the ideas that used to be laughed at by scientists are actually being considered. ive noticed many people saying things like there could be multiple universes. the universe is everything that exists in time and space. there can't be multiple. then people say the universe might be infinite. I believe that is possible but some people also say that an infinite universe means an infinite number of us in an infinite number of situations. just because space is infinite doesn't mean that matter is infinite. space could go on forever while just one earth exists. I wonder if the science community will continue to take seriously some of these fantastic ideas or come back down to earth? pun intended :)

The universe is infinite space. To imagine that this space suddenly ends with some sort of barrier defies even common sense.

If dark matter had the right distribution (which it doesn't), it could be several different copies of the the standard model, interacting only gravitationally with ours, while creating its own stars and civilization, so you don't even need extra space to have "parallel" universes.

We are part of the universe so the first question is just a subset. But the Boltzmann's brain hypothesis is not guaranteed to be a real problem. Firstly we don't know that the universe is infinite, and even in an infinite universe it's not guaranteed that all possible outcomes would occur. there are constraints such as physical laws, the initial conditions of the universe, etc that put constraints on the possible outcomes and may prohibit the formation of a Bolzmann's brain. Also even within it's own terms the evidence of our senses suggests the hypothesis must be incorrect. The number of partial, broken, incoherent and insane Bolzmann's brains would vastly exceed the number of coherent ones by a near infinite ratio, and would be the expected experience. So since that's not our experience the hypothesis seems commensurately unlikely to be true.

To a tiny creature on a large balloon it seems flat, but if it crawls far enough it will come back to where it started.

Even a neighboring star system because of the EMFS may not be detectable with our methods. We should look for single star systems, why because we have observable evidence for life. If you look at our planets what do you see? I see a second star that never got formed, due to planetary building because the system were in has rocky cores. It's down to materials available at our systems birth. The rocky cores turned out to be great for collecting gases as we can see.

Dr Khune and Dr Rees, I have had something going on in my mind about the universe and I would like to share it with you and your viewers. Nature does not make mistakes and I believe it would be a massive mistake to have a universe where one could not be able to go from here to anywhere and back----but not in millions of light years rather in minutes or days. What am I saying? It makes no sense that nature would design something like a universe that one could not travel the length of or a place not being able to be reached except traveling millions upon millions of lightyears to arrive at a destination. Nature does everything to the exact proportion it needs to function; all parts of everything in a cell for example are accessible by other parts of a cell. A leaf is paper thin in most cases because it does not need to be any thicker. There is one reason I am saying this and that is that if UFOs exist; if they are real and I have never seen one, but I believe many of the testimonies of people who say they have, then they come from the stars. Boys and girls, there is a big problem because if UFOs do exist then how on Earth---pun intended---are they getting here? We would see them coming across space if they flew in from, say, Jupiter. They have to be using some sort of passageways, wormholes that we cannot see... yet.

"It makes no sense that nature would design something like a universe that one could not travel the length of or a place not being able to be reached" I don't see why that we should expect that. Nature doesn't care about our likes or preferences, or even our needs. As for UFOs, we know for a fact from detailed research that humans are terribly unreliably observers. We report seeing things that aren't there, miss things that should be obvious, imagine memories of events that never happened, or THAT provably happened differently to what we remember. There's been plenty of research on this. We also know for a fact that this can even happen to highly trained professional observers. That's how blue-on-blue incidents and navy collisions and accidents happen even for elite trained personnel. Therefore we would expect there to be a certain level of report of unexplained, strange or impossible seeming events. They are inevitable. So the question is, do we get significantly more such reports than we would expect to get anyway? And what are the chances that these are just the expected level of erroneous reports, or actually space aliens?

All of us with our conspiracy theories are holding bags of hot air we wish were proof of what we believe but cannot prove. I try my best to stay open minded. Here is my research on The Great Pyramid of Giza which was built in 2,300 BCE, at the same time writing was invented. 1. It is 3/60th of a single degree of true north 2. It weighs 6 million tons 3. Its footprint is 13 acres 4. It is more than 755.9 feet along each side 5. It is 146.75 meters high 6. It has more than 2.3 million individual blocks of stone 7. It is locked into the Cardinal dimensions of our planet; The dimensions of the Earth are incorporated into its dimensions. 8. If you take the height and multiply it by 43,200 you get the polar radius of the Earth 9. If you measure the base perimeter of the pyramid accurately and multiply that measurement by 43,200 you get the equatorial circumference of the Earth 10. The scale is not random, the number 43,200 is derived from a key motion of the Earth, which is called the precession of the Earth’s axis 11. The Earth wobbles on its axis very slowly at the rate of 1 degree every 72 years; 43,200 is a multiple of 72; 600 X 72 12. So; they’ve given us the dimensions of the planet in The Great Pyramid of Giza on a scale defined by the planet itself 13. There are several 70-ton blocks of stone raised 300 feet above the ground 14. It has eight sides, and at the spring equinox and the autumn equinox one side of the pyramid is in the shade in the morning and again in the late afternoon and can only be seen from the air-as far as my research has shown. 15. It is a calendar 16. It has expansion joints 17. It is located at the exact intersection of the longest line of latitude and the longest line of longitude of the Earth, in other words The Great Pyramid is located at the precise center of the Earth’s land mass. 18. The builders possessed highly sophisticated knowledge of mathematics and geometry 19. The builders had knowledge of the true dimensions of the Earth to extreme precision 20. The builders possessed exceptionally advanced technical instrumentation to site The Great Pyramid 21. Pi = C over D Phi = Divided by 5 + 1 over 2. Archimedes discovered Pi about 250 BC, but Egyptians knew of it 2,250 years earlier 22. The Great Pyramid is 146.75 m high, its height X a million equals the distance from the Earth to the sun 23. If you subtract the inner circle from the outer circle of the circumference of The Great Pyramid, you get the speed of light in meters to four decimal points: 299,792,458 meters per second 24. The weight of The Great Pyramid is 5,273, 000 tons and that multiplied by a billion is the weight of the Earth 25. If you divide the perimeter of The Great Pyramid by ½ its height, the result is 3.14 = Pi 26. The three inner rooms; the king’s chamber, the queen’s chamber and the unfinished chamber under the pyramid are proportional to the distances between Mercury, Venus and the Earth. 27. The distance from The Great Pyramid to the North Pole is the same as the distance from The Great Pyramid to the center of the Earth. 28. The height of The Great Pyramid 146.75 m X 1 million = the distance from the Earth to the sun. 29. The weight of The Great Pyramid 5,273, 000 tons X 1 billion = the weight of the Earth. 30. If you divide the perimeter of the pyramid by 1/2 its height the result is 3.14 pi h/2 = pi These are of course mere coincidences that happen by chance... 31.

I like your observations and I think your imagination is great. The only thing I'd like to add is that I don't think nature itself can design anything. But maybe it can if nature was created by a Creator. But that's a totally different subject, at least in the context of this discussion by Kuhn and Dr Rees. Peace

​@@simonhibbs887 Thanks for the clarification. I wasn't aware of the current state of knowledge regarding evolution. So do you prefer to think that the Cosmos itself was designed to evolve? I'm not scientifically minded but I do appreciate scientific endeavors.

Mankind is equally incapable of understanding the nothingness that he has emerged from as the vastness that he is engulfed in. We live in a mystical universe.

Just say it. Multiverse means Infiniti.

First view

I suggest that we try not to be overwhelmed by the size of the universe, because, in a certain sense, our own minds are just as "infinite" as we imagine the universe to be (neither of which are actually infinite). Materialism will never be able to answer the ultimate questions.

I used to have a lot of respect for Kuhn but the more I listen the more I perceive his deception. He started by saying with must not start with Philosophy or Theology but "what we know exists namely the universe". His host then immediately flies into a philosophical diatribe postulating other dimensions, possible universes, and other Big Bangs. Kuhn is a metaphysical realist and begs the question of his own realism as though the position is a given. Well Mr. Kuhn, Quantum Mechanics has pretty much destroyed the idea of Materialism/Realism. QM reveals that the physical universe itself has a metaphysical substrate. And if Kuhn actually understood metaphysics he would know that one cannot even prove the reality of one's own conscious metaphysical experience of being human in the world. And if one cannot prove the reality of one's own consciousness, on what grounds do you get to presuppose the reality of the physical universe?

Quantum Mechanics does not destroy materialism or say that the universe has a metaphysical substrate. What quantum mechanics says is space and time does not exists. The idea of separate and distinct objects is an illusion.

I don't think the Heisenberg uncertainty principle implies uniqueness. But it does imply we wouldn't be able to identify which of the huge (infinite?) number of copies of a person are exact copies. The probability that a randomly selected copy is an exact copy would be tiny but non-zero. Given an infinite number of copies, the probability that at least one of them is an exact copy would be so close to 1 that it's effectively 1. (Just as 1 divided by infinity is effectively zero.)

You got all of that from Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle? That formula deals with particle-wave duality, position, and momentum. What does that have to do with identifying the number of exact clones within a supposed "infinite universe?"

It's pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty vast

"I can't start with philosophy or theology, I must start with the Universe, what we really know." They the proceed to discuss everything they don't know about the Universe which is almost everything. I would start with philosophy, guys. You don't know jack about the Universe. (That's philosophy.)

It is very unfortunate that people who are supposed to be knowledgeable talk about "in all 14 billion years, only in 200yrs of Human history we have come so far in understanding" What he doesn't seem to know is that - There is a civilization which studied and understood the cosmos far better than the current breed of scientists - because they were not limited by their physical abilities.

hurry, the universe is coming

“ could just send you into convulsions”:😂 good one Robert👍. Or give one an aneurysm. 😳

It seems to me that our universe is fractal (fractalline?). There really is no proper scale. Sure, there's the Planck length and all that, but nothing ever gets to that point. Existence at slightly above Planck length is still massive (macro) to a hypothetical observer existing in that scale, in the exact same way that everything appears astronomically vast to us at this particular scale. All this stuff is cyclical, lives and dies, then lives again, then dies again, and so on, eternally. Scale is a useless measurement because scale is relative to an observer (similar to velocity). We all intuited this the first time we got high and talked about how the universe could be a drop of water. And we intuited it because the universe gave birth to us, and we've been here, in one form or another, the entire time. Is this helpful at all? Absolutely not, not in a way that science finds satisfactory. I'm just sayin'.

"How vast is the Cosmos?" I think, it is almost 68 vast, or perhaps even 69.
