5 Times Interstellar Got Physics Wrong 

That’s a pretty good point. I assume it was in an effort to save as much fuel for the mission as possible

@@howtheory Yeah earlier in the film before they left, Cooper mentioned that he was barely able to leave the stratosphere with the ranger he was flying at the beginning. This basically says that the rangers are capable of getting into orbit on their own but because they’re leaving earth, they would need the fuel on their expedition rather than have it be wasted just trying to dock with the endurance.

May be escape velocity of miler is very less

It wasn't about thrust. It was about conserving as much delta-v (fuel) as possible; hence why they used a rocket to send the it into orbit so minimal fuel in the ranger was burnt.

@@pranjal__0612 As he said, it’s not. The gravity is higher. Escape velocity directly correlates with mass.

Thank you! I was pretty stunned when I first made it too. It’s my new wallpaper lol

@@howtheory yooo thats nice

@@howtheory I don't want to be disrespectful but I don't see the difference. Can you give me a hint?

Thank you, glad to hear that!

I saw it somewhere that they decided against it because it'd be too confusing for the audience.

@@lloydfeng5716 damn, kinda sad.

@@lloydfeng5716 That's really dumb, because I think it would have looked cool on the screen.

​@@lloydfeng5716 I don't even understand how it could be confusing to someone. You can barely even notice the shift

I appreciate the kind words! Your support has definitely motivated me. We’re all gonna make it brah

@Beyond you can always use epidemic sound for free and start paying for it once your videos get monetized. Most of the music I’ve tried looking for is not good on RU-vid and other places

Appreciate it man!

I didn't realize that it was only 1k wth

Exactly

He only has 1k because people would rather watch low-resolution 1 hour videos of spinning chips with 80s music instead of quality content like this.

@@howtheory Lil bro spend 1500 hours for 57K views 😭

Thank you!

Bruh how, where else could it be filmed

@@baccaracks Millers planet duh

😂

I had a a lot of fun making it too. I had never seen any good looking semi realistic examples online so I felt pretty good with the end result. Appreciate the kind words!

​@@howtheory Space Engine simulates it well

Glad you enjoyed it!

Yes, and a suitable accretion disc can replace some of the need for energy being emitted from the star too!

If you got sucked in by the black hole, you might change your mind

Maybe so but they are mainly safe if you are outside their event horizons and gravitational pull. If you have the misfortune of being pulled into the event horizon and are turned into spaghetti, it’s a wrap

I mean it would be real cold and very radioactive

Thank you, will do!

His books “Black Holes and Time Warps” and “The Science of Interstellar” are top tier books imo. Big inspiration for the channel

It’s super cool imo how much Nolan wanted the film to be as scientifically accurate as possible, so he consulted one of the greatest physicists ever, the nobel prize winner Dr Kip Thorne. I wonder if Dr Manns robot being named Kipp was just a coincidence

Fair enough. I just didn’t want to go too in depth on one principle

Imo the ending was absolutely awful and a total deal breaker. They should have shitcanned anne hathaways character.

How can someone "fall" into blackhole still alive and end up on their home's library? 🙄🤔

Annnnd here come all the armchair film critics to provide a critical rebuttal to something i never said. To everyone who hated this movie...the comment section to vent your malcontents is that way 👉👉👉 Thank you for your cooperation

@@Nbomber and you are allowed your opinion buddy 👍😂

@@Agent-ie3uv Cause, he was guided there by future humans that knew how to make it possible. And, he is NOT in his home library, he is just manipulating the gravitational coordinates of that specific place. It's like when you change some values at the memory of a graphics computer program to change a color in the screen. The effect occurs in the screen but the real change took place in the memory, something like that. And, cause it is a fictional movie and you have to make some magic here and there.

Exactly. All the knowledge from my video was obtained from the book written by Kip Thorne about the production of Interstellar. They were aware of all of the scientific inaccuracies and focused on entertaining the general population as opposed to adding unnecessary complexities.

its because its a shitty Hollywood movie

Thanks man❤️

yeah im trying to be nice but jesus its true

Sounds like he's confusing the time dilation of travelling close to the speed of light with the time dilation of extreme gravity.

spin is a parameter of energy and energy absolutely plays a role in time dilation ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Z4oy6mnkyW4.html

The spin is necessary to mitigate the gravitational gradient, which allows Miller's planet to exist in a stable orbit so close to the event horizon. The spin also accounts for why Cooper doesn't get spaghettified as he descends to the event horizon. Gargantua is meant to be spinning at very close to the maximum, but it looked a bit odd, so we turned down the spin to 0.75c in our simulation, which produced a smaller eccentricity in the shape of the shadow.

@@paulfranklin7161 Hello Mr Franklin, I am genuinely curious since you’ve come from a VFX background - have you always been well read in theoretical physics or was it due to the research required for the movie in which you acquired your knowledge? Love your work!

@@jamesdienow I have a fine art background, but I have always been interested in science. I watched a lot of science documentaries on the BBC when I was a kid 🙂 However, I learned a lot from working on the film, though I have to say the mathematics of it all completely elude me - fortunately my colleagues with physics degrees understood it which allowed us to collaborate meaningfully with Kip Thorne, who is a bona-fide genius by any measure.

Thank you!

To stay in a stable orbit that close to a black hole, Miller’s planet itself must have a massive mass itself too doesn’t it? So the atmosphere is maintain by the mass of Miller’s planet itself. Also the atmosphere is blocking most of the radiation, same as Earth.

@@tonamg53 Gargantua has an accretion disk which probably means that it's spitting out at least hundreds of times the amount of radiation the sun is emitting. With how close the planet is to the black hole I'd imagine it would take an absolute beast of a magnetosphere just to hold onto a semblance of an atmosphere. On top of that, our atmosphere doesn't even block all of the sun's radiation, with the sheer quantity of gamma rays, x-rays, and charged particles pummeling the planet even a relatively thick atmosphere is going to be insufficient I imagine. The mass of the planet doesn't really matter when it comes to it's orbit if I remember correctly, mostly because Gargantua is just so much more massive than Miller's planet.

@@randomaster138 Size does not matter in space… its the mass that will determine how and what the planet is going to orbit… If the gargantua has way more mass, then the miller’s planet will just going to get suck into it… but it’s in a stable orbit which can only implies it has enough mass to counteract Gargantua massive gravity. Also when they are on the planet they are under the influence of miller’s planet gravity, not the Gargantua, so the time dilation is actually from the miller’s planet itself. Just like we are on Earth and its the Earth’s gravity that affect us, not the Sun (although the sun affect the Earth as a whole which pulls into a stable orbit around the Sun) Also blackhole radiation is just a theory and no one knows for sure. By definition, black hole should not emit radiation as even light cannot escape its massive gravity. However there are some evidence suggesting that it does emit some kind of radiation although it is very weak. Most radiation that affect us that we know of, are from stars like the Sun which basically is a massive ball of un-shielded fusion reactor…

​@tonamg53 While Hawking radiation is hypothetical, what composer and randomaster are referring to is radiation from the accretion disk itself. Spinning at such high speeds with so much energy that the accretion disk itself becomes a source of x ray radiation. Incidentally how the first black hole was discovered, Cygnus X1, invisible to telescopes in other wavelengths but a very bright emitter in x ray. And.... that's not how time dilation OR gravity works either. They're in the sphere of severe time dilation around Gargantua. It's that simple. Why would a planet have enough gravity to cause such extreme time dilation? Time dilation around Gargantua as explained in the video, is due in part because of its mass, but most importantly it's spin. The rotation of Gargantua drags space time itself to that extreme, and the planet is orbiting within that region

​​​@@tonamg53l that is required for an object to be in a stable orbit is it move fast enough to not fall in, and far enough tidal forces do not tear it apart. A planet can definitely orbit close to a supermassive black hole and not have to be massive.

Because the people in charge knew the truth but wanted the population to believe otherwise. That's pretty simple to deduce.

@@cchavezjr7 Where did the money, resources, and labor force come from? Did “the people in charge” do it all themselves.

@@aliensoup2420 taxes obviously. NASA was in existence which most people thought was no longer. Why is it difficult to think that the government wanted the general public to remain focused purely on food production which was becoming scarce while secretly working on a side project that might save humanity?

Much appreciated, thanks!

Glad we share the same passion. I plan on uploading some videos relating to Einsteins special relativity in the coming months so I think you’ll like that. Best of luck!

Thanks!
