Kid Asks Neil Tyson "Can A Black Hole Suck In Another Black Hole?" & Gets His Mind Blown Away!

Only 1 person other than myself commented on your now 2 year old comment. Please go away. Einstein sought to make the complex simple. You try your best to make the simple complex.. you're a fraud.

@@KjetilBalstad Yikes!

no, neil has just lit a spark in that kid more than his current 2nd grade imagination. he will become a great astrophysicist one day. you can see it in the kid's eye, the wonder and passion neil's answer illicited.

@@bakotako nope he was expecting a short and brief answer

A conversation where you answer only with yes and no is a shitty conversation.

How about we just admit we don’t know what the kid is thinking because we can’t read his mind nor do we know anything about him at all to give us an accurate answer.

Alina Tahir yup. But still give the benefit of the doubt because I enjoyed Neil's story and most kids find the thought of time travel extremely interesting.

YES!!!

"Haha I think you'll need a pretty good spaceship for that" "No your mom is here on earth"

Basically everybody on RU-vid.

He'll never get answers. He'll get guesses, but never answers.

As it should be. The kid should walk away with more questions to look up himself, or keep him interested in the subject. A simple "yes or no" doesn't stimulate the mind.

@@Cramblit exactly. I’ve always looked at my dad as a genius because he just seemed to know everything but I was just like him. Always questioned everything and that’s how I know everything I do today and what makes a lot of us scientists. No degrees no certificates, just the ability to learn from the simple question of “why?”

@Swintyy Yes he did simplify it for the masses, but he didn't simplify it to the level the kid would fully understand either. "Yes timmy, a black hole could theoretically eat another, next question" is literally as simplified as he could have gotten, but he didn't go that simple, he still had a complex enough answer despite it being simplified to keep the kid engaged and interested, hopefully.

@@Cramblit his name is Clayton

Or he tried to time travel to the past but his body got distorted so he aged backwards instead of traveling back in time (kinda like Paul Rudd turning into a baby in avengers endgame)

Great guy. Wish more teachers were like that

"Noone ever understood the thesis of another physicist. But if you are well experienced enough, you just scroll down to the summary and there you have it!"

Since he couldnt understand a thing, he just read the conclusion :))

Here’s a question, if matter that is swirling around these two black holes, and some of that matter is propelled into the past, can the black holes actually make extra food to eat? Matter to consume, you know the thing. If the matter is sent back to where it was a week ago, then it would double in size, and around again, and quadruple, and on and on. Or would that be some kind of paradox that would not be possible for some other strange reason?

pause

rolling through the comments cause the clip annoyed me, and i want to answer the kids question ; Black holes cannot absorb each other, but they will fuse, as the smaller black hole will be pulled into the gravitational distortion of the larger black hole. the smaller black hole will then add its own gravitational distortion, and, eventually, the two will merge, with the larger original black hole exponentially increasing in size as a result.

Not that I know of. But they should. Oooh! What are they called like, dirt cupcakes? With crushed Oreos as the dirt on the cupcake with gummy worms as the worms? Those were dope as hell. They should do that, but instead of cupcakes they should do that on candy apples. Honey crisp candy apples.

Unfortunately you spoiled an amusing comment by using the stupidity signifier "bruh".

that's what I was like.

Yes or No answers suck :D Because they always lead to further questions, which could be answered in first place "Do you wanna go eat out?" Yes "Should we get pizza or kebab? Or go in some fancy place?" Yes "Any suggestions where?" Yes All this could have been avoided by just answering "Yeah I would love to go eat out. Maybe that pizza place?"

That's topically predicted algorithm. As "Yes", if "yes", so "how".

Subjects like this one need to be explained like he did.

Don't worry about my bed time dude I'll just ride colliding black holes into the past

I did my student teaching in second grade. During that time, my brother died, but fir various reasons, I still went to school. While I was explaining the morning work, one child interrupted me (normally not acceptable, but it was cute in this case) and asked, "Miss G, are you awake?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Because your eyes still look like you're asleep." My heart melted one second, but then the next second I was panicking because I had to explain what happened without mentioning "brother," "died," "suicide" and without causing a million more questions. So I explained that I had upsetting news that morning, but was okay now and wanted it to be a good day. That instantly caused a million more questions, lol. So I kind of awkwardly said I needed to get back to the morning work. My cooperating teacher said she couldn't have done it better.

Chill Dewey.

Except around colliding black holes. Then the future is the past.

That question actually has an answer. The bits that you delete are transformed into heat, increasing the entropy of the surrounding space. Information is conserved but dissipated.

If you are talking about physical memory like magnetic tape, nothing happens to the actual memory. However the location of the memory gets deleted in the database (kind of like a table of contents) of files to be written over by your future files. So until you need more memory for something, the file still exists but your computer doesn’t know where it is because it doesn’t show up on the database.

Welp, I’m going to overthink about this now

There's a vsauce video about it

@@danielshrekoderbanner Leonard Susskind talks about it too, somewhere I can’t recall. He says that the real law of conservation is not about energy, but more fundamentally information.
