The Royal Institution of Australia
The Royal Institution of Australia (RiAus) is a science media and communications organisation. It brings science to life. It creates real and virtual spaces in which people can listen, talk and think about science in all its shapes and forms, and develop innovative and accessible ways of engaging the general community. It sets out to raise scientific awareness and the level of debate on critical issues around science and technology. RiAus strives to highlight the importance of science in everyday life.

How much does this idiot get paid to push lies.
I love Bryan cock
I love how he encourages and makes the young generation interested in science by telling them they could find out themselves if they study.
Nice!
What is at the end of the universe? The answer is easy, it's a restaurant, obvisouly!
The real question is : do the fungi degrade plastic molecules to carbon, nitrogen, sulfur and water ? Or do they produce micro-plastics that later will migrate into soils and waters ?
Is the universe expansion in one direction and if so, which direction? Is it expanding to the left ,right back and forward from the Big Bang?
Who else is here from @Extractions&ire?
I hope elon musk fund this
Can listen all day x
In the past he has stated that his hero was Carl Sagan. You can see so much of Carl in Brian. His enthusiasm, knowledge and his skills to explain would make Carl very proud.
He is enthusiastic, all right, but many of his explanations are lacking. The speed of light question, for instance, has two good answers: the first one is experimental. We have never observed any speed that is greater than the speed of light. Until such an observation happens we have to refrain from assuming that it's possible and all our theories have to contain an absolute speed limit. The second one is theoretical: if the universe is metric (and we have never seen it not to be) and if all physics is relative, then there are only two possible solutions to how coordinate systems relate to each other. One of them is Galilean, the other one Lorentzian. The Galilean framework does not support matter, while the Lorentzian one predicts the very matter that we observe. So, if we want to have a non-empty universe, then we have to accept an upper speed limit.
Fungus, insects, and emzimes have been eating plastic and returning the carbon to our atmosphere for millions of years! Why aren't we letting them?
Promo>SM 🎉
Rubbish Brian, inflation is NOT an accepted theory.
I don't understand why photons can't escape a black hole. It can't be gravity!
Just remember: You are a better driver than anyone else and other driver's are the reason for your inconvenience or accident. Have a great day!
imagine introducing plastic in food chain 💀 , it will eventually end up in animals to whom plastic is toxic
I love this guy. Extremely smart. I've attended one of his lectures and I went home completely satisfied. No boring parts at all. That's a big thing. He's got everything. I'm blown away.
Yes, because you don't know better.
Where from More congras to them How can penish oparetion So ifrom asia continent
Im having mine done on the 13th april. I have two children and one step child im 35 nevours and worried
Absolutely mind shaking. Who are we really….
For the most part we consist of silly people who take nonsensical answers seriously. He claims, for instance, that all possible universes exist. That is bollocks, even within the confines of a multiverse model. There are only very specific kinds of universes that can exist within scientific reason and none of them contain magic. Most possible universes are not even stable and they can't even "exist" for any length of time. They are, at most, transient states. Which stable universes can exist for some length of time is simply unknown. It's not a question science can answer. Not even a little. A theorist should know better than to pretend that we can.
Brian Cox is enormously talented and competent in his field with the boyish charm and looks of a young Paul McCartney minus the Liverpool accent.
that's the whitest nut sack ive ever seen. mines dark, darker than my darkest thoughts.
amazing
Does all light travel at the same speed as the light we (our sun) see? You say there are multiple galaxies which have suns which are larger or smaller than ours, is the light the same color or (frequency) as ours and if not how fast does that light travel...if it's different than what happens to your math?
It depends on what you mean by "at the same speed". In free, flat space, yes. In gravitating systems, however, and in an expanding universe the answer is negative. We even have measurements of the additional light travel time between planets in our solar system that are caused by gravity. This effect is, for all we know, not dependent on the frequency or wavelength of the light.
Oh and now "it might be infinite" this again is not what you were preaching mate. You said it was not infinite.
Oh so now he recons the Universe wont slow down and go into reverse. Big change this then Brian from what you were spouting.
We have no observational data that indicates that the universe will re-collapse. We never had that data. That model was popularized by Steven Weinberg in his book "The First Three Minutes". He clearly expressed that it was his personal favorite rather than science fact and it could have solved the homogeneity problem, which is why there was a lot of theoretical interest in it in the 1970s. It does, however, not fit any of the observed cosmological data.
U didn't answer anything. I set my alarm for different time every day (e.g. 4:35, 2:49: 5:22) and I always wake up just a few minutes before the first alarm. Why? How??
what was happening 10 minutes before the big bang?
There most likely were no 10 minutes before the big bang, at least not in any reasonable interpretation of "10 minutes".
What is the mathematical equation for forever he said the universe will go on forever...
It's mostly intellectual nonsense. Time is not a good order parameter for the deep past and the far future.
great job alaska doesent have to much knowledge on this armen balian news update
Engineering, medicine, and programming
These fires spread so quickly because of the wind and all the Eucalyptus trees. It wasn't the temperature per se. The trees self sustained the fires.
That was a really interesting video, as I live in the UK I don't get to see many Cycads except in botanic Gardens
He the Albert Einstein of our time thank you Dr Cox.
Not even close
It's infinitely dense. It's infinitely hot. God is real. Our concept of physics and time stops at a black hole. And that we need a new theory, God is the beginning partical. It's not human.
Of course god is human. He is a human invention. ;-)
Thanks Carl.
Glad he’s on our planet
Dark Matter is not Matter..... Dark Matter is an ANTI - GRAVITATIONAL FIELD covering the whole Universe. And was Created by "The Matter and Anti-Matter Destruction Event" and all GALAXYS in the Universe Interact with it's FIELD. Dark Matter is just another FIELD, similar to the HIGGS FIELD. That's why we can't see it.
That Jack Horner is a Crackpot.
Sir, you are full of shit as well as.your science😂
Professor Brian Cox is the main man but that woman is weird and slightly scary…
This guy leaves Neil Tyson D grasse for moondust.
This exact day is the day i was born ❤
Welcome zoozve! Great name, genuinely, I 🦆ing love it
What an amazing dicovery😮
It’s a wig
Goddammit you can’t say it’s really a moon when it’s a fucking quasi moon, by that logic earth has two moons.
Sign of a genius is they make it look easy in the eye something that is not
Is it possible that our universe could be repeatedly going through black holes, where everything is broken down to a singularity and life begins again?
This is one of the big theories explaining the big bang, actually.
