    Cox is far and away the best promoter of physics there's ever been!He's stimulated a 23% increase in physics student's applications. They should give him a knighthood.

    Adam McVeigh should get a noble prize for bull shit and locked up for indoctrinating children to believe his world of unproven pseudoscience crap which can all be debunked in a heartbeat. Ok let’s start with a simple THEORY!!! One day there was nothing, then for no reason from nothing, nothing exploded, creating everything,, space, time, stars, blah blah blah and earth, the first cells, etc, now 90 billion yes s later we’re spinning faster than the speed of sound, hurling around the sun at 67 thousand miles and hour our galaxy moving at 450,000,000, and the whole thing moving so fast at a speed that’s almost immeasurable and totally nonsensical. Yet nobody in history has ever seen heard or felt this. Not single inch of parallax in the stars has ever been detected, every test taken to prove the earth spins has failed, evolution, never been proven, gravity never been proven, easily explained by density and buoyancy. Everything you think you know is fake, don’t listen to this cock, he mentioned they’ve actually measured the exact age of the universe, ok wtf please was he there huh lol 😂 have you done the calculations yourself, wait no, so are you telling me you listening to a idiot you don’t know, read books of men/ women you’ve never met, but believe what they tell you, so you believe them why? Wait, dare I say it, a leap of faith. You’ll be telling me they landed on the moon next lol.

    7 жыл бұрын

    Controversial? How? The Big Bang shouldn't actually be an issue re: "the god issue". It could work well together. However, anyone who believes God actually created the universe in 7 actual days is stupid. Sorry, there's no other way to look at it. But each "day" can be 450 000 years long -like the light remnant from CoBR. Certainly there was a point when light existed -when it was no longer an opaque universe -also a 'very long time' ago. The concept of "dark" also existed and still does; therefore those first few verses of Genesis can be re-interpreted using the fundamentals of physics. But as Cox states, there *was* a Big Bang but we don't know what precipitated it.

I’d love him to emphasise on this , also removing the higgs field … would it break every solid apart to the point it’s invisible , like break a solid apart at a atomic level

    Lisa Randall needs to have talk with Brian Cox: first 6 or so questions from audience were from boys. First question from a young lady, prompted by her teacher, was actually a joke.

    I really like Brian as a presenter but he does have an annoying habit of starting one sentence then suddenly stopping and starting another. This happens several time in this lecture, and in every other presentation and TV show I have seen him do. It is like he starts an answer and then something else, possibly a better way of explaining his point, occurs to him so he changes tack with no warning.

    Love hearing this guy, but I wish Brian Cox would be a little more accurate in his explanations. He does use a little creative freedom to help the average person visualize and romanticize about the wonders of particle physics but I think does contribute to some people delegitimizing him, especially due to his high academic background and the fact that he works at CERN. His explanation about how the particles that you're made of bump into the Higg's particles to give matter mass isn't really very accurate coming from a professional particle physicist nor are the figures for Saturn's rings accurate at all. I doubt you'd be able to see a 2 or 3 meters worth of anything around the entire planet of saturn.

    What is your with your condescending and hostile attitude, although I suppose I shouldn't expect much more from KZread comments, silly me. There's a difference between simplifying a statement and falsifying a statement, which was my point.

    Actually I disagree Lenmetallica+ Cox' discussion about how the particles "you're made of" bump into the Higg's Boson is exactly how all the CERN theorists, engineers and physicists described it.

    alexandra momentalle I'd like to see the source for this information. I am no particle physicist by any sense of term, but I am under the impression that the creation of a Higgs Boson is an excitement of the Higgs Field, as described by quantum field theory. Matter interacting with the Higgs Field is what supposedly gives matter it's mass. The Higgs Boson by itself has no role in this interaction.

    Ok, so Higgs particles "bump into other particles" -these are the words of p' physicists (I get the generalisation you're referring to now a bit better) but doesn't the boson itself have energy & therefore mass? Yes, they're the result of the Field but contain 70 g'VE (I have no clue how to find cosmological symbols on my laptop -sorry about that). If you listen to the lecture 'Smashing Physics' I think the explanation whilst general at first will give you the quanta algebra you need? Certainly it helped me a bit. I'm knew to this -biology via medicine via music was my field. Introduced to this recently by my son, actually: who is only 14 and zooming along!
