Life and Death: A Cosmic Perspective from Neil deGrasse Tyson 

hey Niel, I just wanted to ask, why is it impossible to reach 0 kelvin? bc we would need an infinite amount of "other cold" to do so? haha well, ive thought of an even better idea, so HOW ABOUT we just build a box that can support 15psi, then use a powerful vacuum to suck all the air out, if theirs nothing in the box, then theirs nothing to really be effected by the temprature, theirs nothing to VIBRATE AT ALL so would that not mean infinite cold? (pardon my spelling)

You said "Life is better than death." How do you know? Many people would disagree.

I want a video on Nihilism...

If we can gain the technology to terraform another planet and created an atmosphere why can't we create something to clean our own? Why can't we just build gigantic air filters all over the place?

This video covers Tyson: 'That Time Everyone Tried To Defend Injecting Bleach - SOME MORE NEWS'

Great quote! 👍

This is always my goto tactic when dealing with unreasonable theists who simply can't accept that yes... Just like Everything Else...We Die! Another one I used is... If you did live forever... Surely you'd get bored after the first few 1000 years or so... That one always stumps them! Honestly, as Neil put it, this notion of living 'forever' isn't really about that at all. But simply about the fear of Death itself. Even though this is a Natural process which will simply 'return' us to a state of non-existence, prior to our conception.

@@sdwone I do not fear death... but I fear dying.

Or we just don’t remember it. Either way, Mr. Twain was correct.

Great one...

Doesnt matter either way. Once gone, all our memories go with us.

Yes🎉👏

the glazing is crazy but fr im glad to be born in the same generation as my king lebron james

Please try to feel better about it. After all, when we eventually do die, we really won't know it.

the video comes from an atheist perspective, why not admit that the huge complexity and order of the universe and biology cannot come from mere coincidence.. Why undermine the very possibility of a creator?

@@blackpebble1911 Because the idea of a creator is too fantastical and has no hard evidence to back it up. And the existence of a creator would just open more questions. Where did they come from? Did another creator come in a make them too, since they'd likely also have to be pretty complicated. How do they work? How did they make anything in the first place? Did they have to learn anything? Why are they here? I doubt that discovering their existence would even answer these questions.

@@mrsnufflekins3479 Very well said. It's better for humans to focus on what we know and what is right Infront of us, than that make reaching claims about things any human simply cannot know. What good is religion going to do? All it has done is brought segregation and war so far lol.

Nice story ☺️

a bit of a understatement but yes now that i look at it like that, damn that’s so interesting

But I don’t have any purpose beside working so I can eat, it’s strange that life give so much to everyone, everyone manage to have excitement and so much things to do, I don’t understand, all I do is going to a friend to drink talk amd watch tv or we go to the bar not very often or we go play some sports at a park, soccer, boxing, or we throw baseball… I have no embitions or projects I’m not even sure why

I like gaming too but you get it there’s nothing much for me outside of work and I have a small group of friends and most of them don’t even know eachother, it’s strange

Hang in there Isaac. I fight with my demons as well to do the work i must do to get where i feel like i belong. belive in yourself. we all have a skill. lets go do our best. hi hi. have a good .. life :p

❤️

Thank you i really appreciate that, I don't hear alot of nice comments like that in life much and if I do it's always from strangers and not family.

You are lucky to be one of those who got to science before they got to religion. No one should be dependent on religion to save them.

Hi, how are you doing?

Hello Joe Monroe, take heart my friend that you are leaving your mark through your work and legacy, blessings to you and yours.

Maybe your spirit has forgotten the realm it was in before.

@@howardcohen7784which if true would be a mercy. Imagine if you kept memories from past lives as the energy that is your consciousness keep going on. That would be torture, though if true, that would still be akin to a true death of sorts since we are our memories and experiences.

Hello....my experience was interesting..cardiac arrest...float about in different form..invisible partial structure...portal opened...son was giving me CPR...slipped back in...I was fully consciousness throughout.....we all experience this metamorphic event upon body death....serenity was the feeling.... onto next dimension...just abide by your prophet regardless of faith..same message..golden rule..care for sick,feed poor...be good Stewards of the environment....same message from every prophet worldwide.....luv your neighbour

It is not of the science goal to prove or disprove anything , the science goal is to get information and knowledge

Science does not have to prove or disprove anything..... It's Jesus, HE HAS THE FINAL SAY..... WITHOUT JESUS THERE IS NO EXISTENCE.....

Life and death has nothing to do with religion; but if it gives you comfort go on dreaming😊

Spend time reading the gospels and you'll find real life and eternal life. The same power that rose Jesus from the grave will raise us up as Jesus promised. Neils view is depressing and if it's true it would mean that life means nothing. But we were created by God for a purpose. There is plenty of evidence for Jesus and that He is the truth. Neil knows the stars and our galaxy but not life Faith hope and love will remain and God and us live/love eternally by His power. Space time and matter will come to an end.

How do you know a creator will not reunite you with the ones you miss when you and all your loved ones are dead? Why not consider the possibility instead of just assuming nothing else happens.

@@roselaflare False hope without proof is why we have madness. Nobody can simply make their minds believe is such sci fi and it all becomes better. Thats called Supression of our natural human nature "Why".

@@roselaflare because when you really start to consider ‘it’. Assuming you can use critical thinking, you’ll realize how silly the whole idea is. Life IS special BECAUSE we die. It’s finite. If there were something inside of us, let’s say a soul perhaps that lives on forever well then life wouldn’t be all the special and nothing we do would matter. What would be the point of doing anything or even getting out of bed in the morning? Religion was made to give people a sense of peace and something to look forward too. It’s a comfort thing. It is easier to be fooled than to be convinced you have been lied to.

How could you watch this video...and STILL conclude that, there's a "true meaning to life"??? NEWSFLASH! Life has absolutely zero meaning, if there's nothing after death.

@@davidleonard7439 i thnk what gives it meaing is that you can't know for sure. What you do know for sure is that you're going to die, and that means that you have to MAKE your life mean something - even if it's just sharing a hard life with someone you love and who loves you back. It's the experience of love that gives meaning to this life. And love is the most precious within the limits of a human life. We have each other to love - that's it. You gonna hate or you gonna love? Then, maybe you find out something different after death, who knows? Nobody knows what consciousness is anyway.

​@@davidleonard7439 I fully agree with you mate What's the point of coming into this world and then just dissappear into nothingness It's the saddest thing ever to have all these thoughts and emotions and experiences and after just nothingness

@@eltoneagle8136 that nothingness is our home world, we came from it and shall be returned. Its not about You once your time is up but what you left behind for others to seek and aspire what u lost on your journey back home. We will no longer suffer to be happy or be happy after we suffer. Death is the gate to our safe dimension were all is and will be one day to come.

But what's the point of that? You were nothing and you'll be turned into nothing after a very short period of time. There's literally no point in anything you do, feel or sense, because it has no bearing for your future. You're just a piece of space dust. And even that space dust will eventually turn into nothingness.

@BACHOMP I agree. I take comfort in the fact that I am possible, as are you. That means we can eventually happen again.

By just existing we have won the greatest lottery prize possible. We weren’t conscious of anything before we became alive and we will know nothing after we die so enjoy as much as you can, help others not hurt and treasure each moment

Have our EYES also deceived us? Neal, a prominent scientists makes proclamations on ufos, without investigations, seems a bit odd coming from a guy who needs evidence. Well, what about MULTIPLE SENSOR READINGS< independent radar AND multiple witnesses, all at the same time, bro! Last government report in front of congress, says the military sightings over the atlantic and pacific were on MULTIPLE sensor readings, AND multiple witnesses, at the same time. How the heck can you dismiss that as a sensor malfunction, simply making a proclamation with out investigating? Looks like its YOU WHO FEARS the unknown! Make a video about who these ufo's are and what purpose do they present for humans? It's apparent now that 10 to the 30 power , or whatever that number is, is also the chances of life turning into intelligent life, that ends up traveling thru space/time. Perhaps that is where our lives are going, to strive to be better and better and improve everything we use, until we can travel and search for other intelligent beings. Your video is nice ,but it skips the ultimate destiny for us.

If you put nothing inside a box you can not name it "nothing" because nothing can not exist inside something, therefor, nothingness does not exist because the existence is something.. stop searching for "nothingness" because it doesn't exist inside the existence, BUT if you can find something that doesn't exist then you can search for the nothingness, but again this is not logical because you can not find something that doesn't exist inside the existence. Note: if nothingness is a place or an origin of somethings YOU CAN NOT NAME IT NOTHINGNESS

You won't be aware of losing it for all eternity, so i wouldn't worry about it

It's a shell game put on by evil forces, energy never goes away, this paradigm of materialistic reduction has no physical demonstration or verification, it isn't even possible to confirm or deny the validity, so start living a moral and just life, look into stoicism and get some real tools for dealing with life!

For some dying is peace at last. You close your eyes and… nothing. Ohh boy oh boy, the relief.

Your amygdala creates fear, which can be suppressed by the cerebrum, the thinking part. Personal Death Solution for the rational optimistic (1% > 0% chance to survive one's death plan) Your connectome (which contains consciousness/ memories) saved by glutaraldehyde cryopreservation with a genome sample (DNA) to rebuild the body and refresh the telomeres to stay at a desired age with your thoughts. Caution- Future folk will also be able to scan your saved thoughts for intent and malice, and judge accordingly...(keywords Robert McIntyre Nectome Brain Preservation Foundation). Universal Death Solution for the rational optimistic (You live forever, now what?) Entropy, or the heat death of the universe, can be possibly escaped by going through black holes to energy rich white holes in a different universe within a multiverse. That or AI/ group conscioussness reverses entropy (keywords "Startalk White hole" "Conquering Maxwell's Demon", "The Last Question"). Then create life or join the multiversal superbeings club, gets fuzzy here for me, TBA in 100 trillion yrs.

@RC248 Well said.

Watch Sam Parnia's videos about consciousness

You won’t miss them. You’ll be gone and incapable of missing them. Kind of a blessing.

You can never make the world better, just worse. Nature doesn't care about your life, and with every day you live, you just generate more junk for nature to cope with. You literally are just a disease for this planet. Nothing more.

Ahh, and HERE is where I fear the presumption is rapidly going awry. NO NATION is properly addressing climate change, we WILL continue to overheat the environment and we WILL have a HIGH probability of an extinction event in the next century - or even 2o years, this kind of change comes in a swift collapse of the existing system. Good luck, humanity.

Not even in the slightest for me.

I beg to differ. Your hypothesis is invalid because you first have to exist to be sad about not existing. That's the thing about non existence, there is no you to miss anything.

@@judgegixxer precisely, with non existence, there is nothing you'll miss out on because you do not exist at all because there is no you who has existed in the first place.

“Narrator-man”?

He really is, yet some people came to learn about his left leaning scientific based politics and decided he was "arrogant" or "not likable", etc etc etc. What a sad commentary on our society

Yeah I think that's mostly a American sentiment. Well maybe Alberta too if I'm being honest but Alberta is like Canada's little USA.

@@Turn420 that’s the thing though. Science doesn’t lean left (as you likely know). It’s that the political left trust the sciences so they are usually in harmony. But a lot of people think science is just “leftist garbage”. We’ll never be able to convince them that they have it backwards. It’s anecdotal but it’s 100% true for me personally. I followed my love of science and my politics leaning just shifted naturally with it. I think that’s how it is for most.

An international treasure, NDT is known worldwide for his ability to explain scientific ideas in a relatively easy to understand fun way. As for his left leaning politics in Europe or the UK he would be seen as a centrist with a slight left of centre view.

Allah (God) says, "Every soul will taste death, and you will only be given your [full] compensation on the Day of Resurrection. So he who is drawn away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise has attained [his desire]. And what is the life of this world except the enjoyment of delusion." (Qur'an 3: 185) "And it is Allah (God) who sends the winds, and they stir the clouds, and We drive them to a dead land and give life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness. Thus is the resurrection." (Qur'an 35: 9) "Does man think that We will not assemble his bones?" "Yes. [We are] Able [even] to proportion his fingertips." (Qur'an 75: 3-4) "So observe the effects of the mercy of Allah (God) how He gives life to the earth after its lifelessness.

If I was 3 years younger today I’d probably ignore you Thinking life is just an easy way for everyone to get enjoyment off of torturing you and then giving you pleasures that they use for their amusement when they take it all away That life is a way for you to feel torture and that death even if it leads to non existence is better Now I am horrified that I thought that way and the fact that I could’ve died believing that I could’ve died not drawing, not writing, not seeing, not feeling and not experiencing anything I’ve chivied at this point In the future I hope I’ll think again “oh my god, if I died back then I wouldn’t have made this many things and I’d only be remembered as a child with no reason to die but jumping off the building anyway”

My problem is: I think life is very, very special. However, if you take is being special you will not want to part with it very much. We all have to, in the end. We can't fall in love with life because because we all have to give it up. I think the best thing is face death with a brave and courageous heart.
