Excellent series! Thank you for taking the time to help us get a deeper understanding of this fascinating subject. You are one of the great science communicators. Keep up the good work and look after yourself and your family during this crazy time. Thank you.
You are just totally amazing. I really do hope you occasionally upload your new ideas here. I think this will give birth to so many new inspirations. Thank you sir🙏
@Krauss, I just found your channel. I didn't know you did it. I love how you explain physics. No body else does it like you. Thank you for your expertise!
Brilliant series .Every episode was absolutely riveting and inspiring. I learned a lot and would like more! Please consider doing additional videos. Your clarity of explanation was outstanding and on a par with the greats like Richard Feynman and Carl Sagan. Thank you.
@@Mr_i_o Yes.. I got to see Feynman lecture, and even more intimidating, he got to see me lecture.. :) (I wrote a book about him where I mention this). I still lecture around the world, when there isn't a pandemic going on. :)
@@lkrauss1 Pr. Krauss Can you make a vid about the mother law of law's and what role dose it play,?,and the theory of making theories?., Is it in some how one reflection of many reflections in the merror chamber?? I wont to hear that from you, thanx. Greeting from middle east.
When one walks the path...the teacher appears at the right time....HITCH ,and now KRAUSS......I am grateful ...these giants invite me to stand on their shoulders.....and I can see far THANK YOU FOR GUIDING ME
Thank you so much Lawrence for taking the time and effort to bring these absolutely fantastic videos to us. It's been a pleasure to watch them and we are the fortunate ones. You have made them all so elegantly, so entertaining but more importantly so interesting. Regarding 'Nonsense and Uncertainty', I'll 'cut straight to the chase'! Since Hitch unfortunately passed away, in my eyes, you became one of the 'Four Horsemen' so no, the Banana wasn't created to fit perfectly in our mouths ;-). So thanks again Lawrence, I'll continue to follow you on all your other platforms and look forward to your new book. Take care mate and stay safe. Doug
Thank you Lawrence for the 5 minutes physics. Please do more short/long videos and open for us a window to science and the world. Nobody does it so well as you.
I know that being an engineer isn't being a scientist, but I really appreciate all that you do. Physical Chemistry was my most difficult course, but it makes more sense now. Even though I never had to use it. LOL I hope you will continue to educate us.
Just discovered, by chance, Lawrence M Krauss, I understand almost nothing you say, but am absolutely intrigued by everything you say! Really enjoyed what I've seen and heard, I will continue to pursue you on the net! Thank you
Love it.. Your series has been fascinating, intriguing, and entertaining in a lot of ways.. I hope to see more of it in the future.. My only disappointment is the amount of your subs. Which I believe is only due to the young age of the channel.
Thanks Professor. My 8 yo son loves listening to your YT lectures about cosmology. We both love science and mathematics because of your influence. Take care sir. I bought A Universe From Nothing. Im on chapter 5
If you ever come across to the UK to give a lecture be sure to let us know - I'll be first in the queue :-) Loved this series and have enjoyed all your books.
Big thanks Mr Krauss. These days when bad horrible news flood the internet, you have been one of the few sources that actually makes us think and question the world. Mabuhay!!
Beautifully put and summarised - thank you very much for your time and effort ! It helps a lot in one’s journey towards rationality. Love from Pakistan ❤️❤️
Extremely profound words, and a great way to conclude your series. One can only hope that some day we will grow beyond where we seem to be stuck today. Maybe this crisis will help people understand that, for the most part, the scientific process does work. Peace
Thank you Lawrence I truly appreciate your teachings. I have never had the opportunity to tell you this: I was raised catholic, in South America. I alway felt things didn't add up, however, it was only until I crossed paths with you that I was able to finally divest myself of the last vestiges of indoctrination. My tipping point was: A Universe From Nothing, to which I was first introduced in a RU-vid video where you were presented by Richard Dawkins, this was about 11 years ago, since then I have followed you very closely in books, debates, news, etc (I did miss you presentation in Calgary, Alberta). Thank you once again for making physics, astronomy and science in general available and understandable to simple mortals like me that do not have a strong background on it. Please keep up the excellent work.
Thanks for this, specially about uncertainty.. I always get very annoyed by media headlines and questions to scientists, specifically when they think "no evidence" means certainly does not cause or happen!
Sir! You are an inspiration. " If you don't challenge you belief system, you are not learning" This quote of yours absolutely gives many a perspective to think in a better way and be humble. Thank you sir
The problem as I see it is, people teach kids "what to think" and not "how to think." I taught my kids to question everything and even me, I tell them I've been wrong before and I'll be wrong again but I keep my mind open so I can learn and adjust my thinking and questioning! I have had so many times where I start showing per-reviewed facts, and the other person you can see is doing the child "fingers in ears, closed eyes and chanting I can't hear you I can't hear you! Then when I finish they go see, he has nothing! I made sure to show my kids these examples and to point out a closed mind is a wasted mind! Never let anyone tell you what to think, think for yourself!
Thank you so much, it's been a great pleasure, and you continue to enrich many of our lives. Hope to see you back here one day, until then The Origins podcast it is! Take care and have a great weekend.
Well, what can I say ... Scientists like Lawrence Krauss, Brian Green, Neil Turok, Mr Tyson and many others, got me in to physics and cosmology and make me think clearer for various aspects of philosophy of life.
Today it has been more than a physics lesson, it has been a lesson for life, I have enjoyed a lot your videos and I look forward to have more of them in the future. Thanks very much professor
Although I hated physics in school and have very little knowledge on the subject and being in my late 40s feel it's too late to start I actually really liked and was interested to try and understand what was being said and explained in these 5 min videos...so thank you very much Lawrence from me here in England UK 🇬🇧😃👍
Love it, podcast are great! A video Once a month would be better than nothing at all. Any plans to come to england, seminars, events, q&a, when all this is over
Very good discussion but feeling still hungry. The idea of nonsense and verification of fact through observation, experiments, calculation are not new. Modern science is nothing new methodologically but only modern and sophisticated tools. As it is common, during college life I was also proud to be student of physics but failing to complete assignment. One evening helping my mom at kitchen, I wondered that kitchen was mom's science lab. If you pay enough attention then you find all the workplaces are lab for human beings. There is no such thing scientific vs unscientific knowledge but only sensible knowledge which comes from 5 sensual organs' and brain. Our knowledge can be evolutionary ( so many branches of science) but we have same 6 organs. There was never conflict between Rationalism and Empiricism but were complementary to each other. Being a student of anthropology now, from Paleolithic age to AI age, same rules are working. As Nikola Tesla has said we must be thankful to Buddha who warned us that our 6 organs can cheat us. In that situation, only machine can help us because they are free from perceptional delusion. That is why, 'Buddha in the Robot' 1974 was written. Hope AI can help us to solve many problems!
"that which disagrees with empirical evidence".. "is nonsense" you mean like how we threw out theories of gravity when we observed galaxies not conforming to our theories? there are only 2 responses to this. we invent 2 separate things which noone has ever observed to explain it away. or we accept that sometimes nonsense is our best theory yet, and we should seek to find a better theory asap. and NOT entrench ourselves into eternally defending a theory which has been falsified.
How can a mundane phenomenon triggered by coincidence such as a big bang produce logic, the language of science that telltales its existence? In other words how can order be created out of chaos? What it tells me that we either are so rare that order was created as one of the infinite possibilities of the big bang so order was created as one of the rare possible outcomes of the communication within chaos itself! Or there is another explanation that I can't seem to find on my own! What's your take on this Dr. Krauss!
