The Joy of Techno Science with Rayvon Fouché
Ғылым және технология
How is technology changing sports? On this episode of StarTalk Sports Edition, we wrap up our “Game Changers” mini-series as we look at the science that has transformed the sporting world. Neil deGrasse Tyson and co-hosts Gary O’Reilly and Chuck Nice talk with Rayvon Fouché, author of Game Changer: The Technoscientific Revolution in Sports, to explore game-changing technology.
Sports are no stranger to technology, but can certain advancements ruin the spirit of the game? We explore the past, present, and future of innovative sports equipment. Will these innovations be at odds with athletic federations and even the players themselves? What about technology used by non-players? You will learn about the impact camera technology has had on sports viewing as well as sports statistics.
You’ll hear about the use of computing in athletics and whether or not we can - or should - have robot umpires in baseball and allow artificial intelligence to make calls. Would we want to eliminate humans as judges? Do we secretly like subjectivity in sports? Find out why competitors in a race, even with precise timing mechanisms down to the millionth of a second, can still tie.
To finish things off, we explore the grey area between what we consider sports medicine and what we consider cheating. With such innovations in medicine, are sports going to be dominated by older athletes like Tom Brady and LeBron James? Not only that, but we investigate how advancements in sports technology have helped not just athletes’ bodies but also their minds. Does that raise any ethical questions? All that and more on another episode of StarTalk Sports Edition!

I love to see Chuck getting some love.
Chuck keeps these conversation ground for all us "Normal" people.
Neil putting in work !! 2nd hour long episode this week !!

I love that "ignoring your evolutionary signs to stop". That's pretty much sums up learning to play Roller Derby.
Hey Neil, thanks for all you do. I'd like to request as a guest the Dutch astrophysicist and former MIT professor Walter Lewin. He's amazing and it would be interesting to see the two of you interact over physics.
Please do a 'Science of Inversion from TENET' Cosmic Queries Edition inviting our scientist 'Brian Greene' and our scientist turned filmmaker 'Christopher Nolan' himself...! An incredible infusion of Science and Pop-culture in the modern age!
Love the swimming segment. It's a simple matter of tolerances. You can talk about the dimensional consistency of gravel against a cleat. You can talk about grass density per square cm. You can't use the same tolerances pouring a foundation as you do building a cabinet door. Great stuff. :)

Machining something like a bearing has a lot closer tolerances than building something out of cement can have because, the cement expands and contracts more than metal. So, unless you either build with other materials whose tolerances can be a ten thousandth of an inch or at least line the pool with metal that can be tweaked to within those tolerances, it's going to be impossible to achieve those time tolerances. Lol. I just realized that I said what you said but, I was long winded. :)
I just wish to say how nice it is to have the humor of Chuck Nice incorporated with this show. Just when I need a laugh this man with his great intellect interjects humor into my ears for my brain to enjoy. Thank you from all of us!
I'm not into sports, but these sports shows are unbelievably fascinating!
I listen to startalk all day at work it's great!
Randy Couture was pretty old staying in MMA and I think this would be the most strenuous sport you could do getting in to the years. Although he did 'retire' a few times, he did come back to take back his title and finally threw in the towel at age 47.......in the MMA!!! Anyone over 40, in MMA would be considered grandfathers hehe Oh yeah, they also did a special on Randy Couture, showing that our lactic acid system can be so tuned, that you can recycle energy quick enough, to hold MAXIMUM pressure for extremely long times. MUCH longer than your ATP systems can handle and still not be tired from going so hard that would drain any normal human being.
Someone needs to point out that Rayvon's mic is too far from his mouth...
techno science never dies
Only Niel DeGrasse Tyson could make me interested in sports. Probably because they're barely talking about sports themselves.
This is a great show. Love it.
Indiana used to not observe DST in the entire state, except for counties around Chicago (NW), Evansville (SW) and Cincinnati (SE) which all observed DST. But former Governor Mitch Daniels back around 2000's Indiana law changed to observe DST over the whole state. Which the whole state is Eastern Time Zone with exception of the aforementioned NW and SW counties, that observe Central Time Zone.
not a sports fan, i follow no sports. Yet, there are issues and facets in these Ep's that are worthy of thought and discussion. in general, our rules/laws have been slow in accomodating tech and innovation/invention. we still use industrial age legalities applied to digital age. i see a very similar shape to sports and rules. another interesting Star Talk, thanks!
I love you Neil you are the best now because of you I love space btw this is coming from a 12 year old!

Hi Neil Hi Chuck, Your combination is amazing , You have sparked curiosity in all of us. Many thanks. Can I ask , if time dilation is true ( the movie interstellar) will the cell matabolism slow down also , as time slows down? Just for curiosity, if from the spaceship perspective 1 week has passed and from people near the black hole perspective say few seconds have passed, and during this second they did not drink water, will the survive as it's just seconds or they will die as a week without water ? What are your views on this .
Wow sports edition is blowing my mind
my favorite "I hadn't considered that before" was the variation of lane lengths in a swimming pool 'cuz it ain't perfectly square straight line from corner to corner. Maybe they can put in a laser as "finish line" for many sports.
Has it been ,along time, since you have done a live streaming? Because if not I have missed it 😔
i used to enjoy Techo some years back - Mrs Woods Teaches Techno , a particular favourite.
If I take a rod which is one light year long. Then I use it to press a button which is also one light year away from me. Then have I transferred my energy to the button faster than the speed of light.. Please answer/explain this 🙏
I couldn't imagine a boring star talk video until they came with sports editions :(
The line calls in tennis & replay in NFL Football have changed the game
I believe ''Techno Science'' is a subject that will concern us very much in the future.
if you live in a dimension that have access to time what is the meaning of live there, as you can be anywhere in time what is present, how is it that you are able to access the past but not able to change because of paradoxes that may occur ....... and many more questitions. I really wanted to know the answer and hoping to watch you answer these question in the future videos. Thank you for reading my silly questions.
Awesome stuff 👍
Money ball and Saber metrics. I have read TIBCO founders book Ranadives "The two second advantage" and I am going to watch this in high speed.
I expected it to be about the music genre techno lol
Interdisciplinary studies in one picture. The calm and balanced professor and a bunch of sport freaks.
13:52 yes actually onto something. Ai assisted cameras have helped decide calls in soccer/football

Neil please check out my mini fusion reactor prototype the M.F.C this is not a Farnsworth fusor this is a form of mini tokamak and the first of tokamak kind that uses passive confinement and uses one magnet for electrode protection and particle rotation and uses the x-ray presser from the reaction to confine the plasma as the passive containment. so as the reaction rates increase so does the x-rays so the core self balance's. this cuts out the need for any high power magnets and the needs for extra power input for confinement methods that are in uses to day. most of the info is in the descriptions.
Gymnasts are frequently working towards or practicing bigger moves than they compete until they get consistant enough to put into a routine. They will land it hundreds of times before it goes into a routine.
I love your videos
Hey Neil. Hope thats ok to call you. You remind me of my uncle nic. When i was younger he wpuld always have me try to find things he didn't know. So with that said i have a question. How humid would the world have to be for us not to be able to ignite a flame or strike a match.
As for determining if a ball is or is not in possession, it would be easy to use machine learning. Show the AI a large sample of of it, and simple label each as a 'yes' or 'no'. The AI will sort it out.
1:40, ummmmm I think you're a little confused there. All of Indiana has had DST since 2006. I think you meant to say we have different time zones. A majority of Indiana is on EST, while there are a few places on the western side of the state that are on CST.
Look at Video Game Speed Runners. They measure by hundredths of a second *all the time* once you get down to optimizing a game to it's peak.
Hey I thought this was going to be about Techno Music due to the title
I mean in fornula 1 it's also not about the driver but who has the best machine... Kind of the same thing like with swimming back in 2009.. And in F1 it's been like that for years and decades
Sorry, Neil, you have been pwned by Chuck Nice (and yes, "snap!") 😂😂😂
Love it!
Nice
Why they didn't talk about VAR?
Here in Muncie, Indiana we have daylight savings time
Plus,with T.V. camera's,the players get T.V. commercial breaks(football) as timeouts to rest and water.
Epic!
Only in Indiana can they divide time! When I had a teaching job there, my 15 minute drive to work was in two different time zones! Hour fifteen to get there and got home 45 minutes before I left work! I prefer California without that problem...That is tech!
Don't let them ruin baseball Chuck!
Some world records were missed that I was aware, for example, Iru Balic missed one world record because the people who couldn't verified that wasn't there at the moment when she broke the record.
Would love to see Gary's 80's mullet in 5k....:)
Baseball, Sabermetrics and the book : "Two second advantage".
in reference to the comment about swimsuits. I wish you would have reiterated that all of these people that are competing are still top-level athletes. I'd hate for people to have the impression that somebody with no athletic ability could just walk off the street and throw on a suit and break a world record. The suit matters for the people who are all trying to cram into the top 1% of their sport. It may not necessarily be a big deal to people on the lower end.
Thanks You made that covidy thing ezer
47:10 Touchwood. I thought pacemaker too.
More knowledge
Niel 💕 Ya
Neil is right. MLB should make modern players play like Babe Ruth, subsisting on a steady diet of beer, whiskey & cigars.
Niel you gotta Gimbal that camera of yours lol.
Let’s not pretend that just 1 NFL team videotaped opponents, they all have done it, and are still doing it
So it'll come down who has the best tech or who can afford the best tech.
Chuck is the maynn

Love star talk. Disappointed to hear r@se dragged into the conversation
What's interesting is technology is already better than humanity. For instance, there was this paralympian with no legs, but got the technology to install these super legs that legit makes him faster others who have legs so the technology was banned
"tanning leather was a more recent technology, right" Umm, heck no! "Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia are said to have invented plant-based leather tanning" -The History of Leather Tanning by Dr. Josephine Barbe
tanner baw. I wonder how many football players could even kick it without breaking their foot? I would like to see professional games played in context of pre technological development? It was once banned for causing more casualties than battles. Thou i am reminded of armistice christmas day 1914.
technoblade NEVER DIES @_@

Are we going to make new sports in the future?Like electric skateboarding e x games.

Chuck is very key. Neil is great but he’s too smart for many to understand directly. Chuck can help translate it for normal people
For a comedian, Chuck has a surprising knowledge of astrophysics too. What else is rattling around in that comic head of his?
