On March 17, 2014, a group of physicists announced a thrilling discovery: the “smoking gun” data for the idea of an inflationary universe, a clue to the Big …

This is how i will teach my son physics!
We Londoners prefer to use “g” as 9.81ms^-2 ;)
Very good teacher but that class is just clapping along with everyone else
and whatever they see..
Why is his head shaking so much?
i need to find somewhere shirt like hes !
Those who don’t know physics are lost in this world. I am afraid that I am
one of these.. Oh, god I would really love to learn physics :(
The sign of a great teacher is to make learning enjoyable and
fascinating, he did just that. I think it’s funny that folks are able to
understand physics but then are perplexed with how he makes those dotted
lines.
I loved this lecture, great lecture!
Brilliant demonstration on the Pendulum Pro Walter Lewin !
well done !
I wish I can have someone like him as my teacher in the future :)
People in the comments are such butt hurts … Just enjoy what this genius
is saying!
I only wish that he was my teacher …
19:20 for dotted lines lmao
The lecturer is dutch…
#MITOpenCourseWare
I have been doing OpenCourseWare for a few months now on my Roku3 but I
discovered their YouTube channel and last night I found this gem I really
liked the discussion and want to pickup the book.
i like his shirt
On May 16, 2011, Professor of Physics Emeritus Walter Lewin returned to MIT
lecture hall 26-100 for a physics talk and book signing, complete with some
of his most famous physics demonstrations to celebrate the publication of
his new book: For The Love Of Physics: From the End of the Rainbow to the
Edge Of Time
Probably the best physics Professor you will ever see gives his last
lecture. The first Q&A tells you a trick to seeing a green flash at a
sunset.
.
Amazing lecture
Walter Lewin (MIT)
Bello, interessante e coinvolgente.
Take an hour with your kids and watch this.
The way he handles sulfuric acid lol
:’)
if i’ve had a teacher like him i’d be probably a Physics student somewhere
:S shame, that my present teacher made me hate Physics.
One of those bubbles looks like an anus.
Something outside the universe caused the universe to begin to exist. He
inserts multiverse completely unnecessarily and yet would probably just
laugh at Theists
When my ex jumps, she creates gravity waves…
Why did the hot pockets become galaxies? One would think that the hot
pockets would push the matter inside them into the colder pockets. Their
heat would cause their gas to expand and be less dense than the colder
pockets. Why isn’t it the colder pockets that became the galaxies?
Nah, multiverse theory is bullshit that everyone just likes the sound of.
It may suggest the possibility of multiverses, but it certainly isnt
evidence for it and there are other explanations.
Excellent, or I mean, BAZINGA!
Well does that change what my bacon tastes like?
worst ted talk yet? no explanaition was given, just “they looked at it and
found evidence for this” what evidence?
He hid from saying Multiverse XD
Seriusly? thats what they discovered after 3 years of staring at the stars?
what kind of drugs are theese people on? That shit is painfully obvious and
children have come to that conclusion the second they learned about
gravity… jesus what a waste of 5mins.
So who rang the bell?
Nothing presented here could rewrite physics.
Tesla had it figured out a long time ago … that’s why you’ve never heard
of most of the ideas of the greatest scientist / philosopher of recent
history. Google Tesla and electric universe ….
Surely this talk should have been done by the people making the discovery,
not someone who read about it.
Quality of TED is becoming like McDonalds.
I highly doubt the diameter of the observable universe is 14 billion
light-years. That assumption would mean that Earth is the centre of the
observable universe & I believe that each astronomical body has it’s own
version of the “observable universe”. Plus, does the universe really have a
shape? Or the spherical model jus’ for hypothesis reasons?
Which part was the part that will “rewrite physics”?
Proponents of the multiverse universe are no different than radical
Christians and Muslims. They’re pushing their delusions as reality. There
is NO evidence for the multiverse and there won’t ever be evidence for
that. There is nothing beyond the universe. It’s pathetic that people are
so obsessed with the idea of a multiverse because our super-ridiculously
massive universe is no longer cool enough for them.
The universe is so big that I’m certain there are TONS of other unknown
mysteries out there in space that have yet to be discovered, just like how
“black holes” were unknown only a few decades ago. Stop fantasizing about a
multiverse because that is holding science back, start growing a pair and
put more energy towards discovering new, bizarre, mind-blowing phenomenons
and objects in the observable universe. So start focusing on the rights
things, because I am tired of faggot scientists taking forever to release
news of new discoveries because they’re wasting time and energy trying to
prove their foolish dogmas.
4:18 oh come on, never?
Sorry Dr Adams but BICEP2 results have nothing to do with multiple
universes or multiverses. You’re just projecting your personal opinions on
real research and are marring its results with your bullsh*t wishful
thinking. BICEP2 did NOT confirm idea of multiple universes! Read the
paper.
This is fake. April fools everyone
@ what rate do these gravitational waves travel? So does this confirm we
live in a bubble or sphere or is that just for illustration purposes?
It’s really cool that we live in a time like this, when we are witnesses to
discoveries like this one which will probably lead to clearer explanations
of the whole universe, not only the part of the universe where we find
ourselves!
A talented story teller for sure, but I choose to follow the bible truth
instead. Friend choose you this day who you will serve “billions of years”
OR In the beginning God created….
Proof of more bubble means possibility of finding one or more friends out
there. Yay!!!
