I explain the physics underpinning the end of Interstellar. Huge thanks to my Patrons: The Elephant In The Room Rick Woodruff Tarek Al Azzouzi David Tannhauser Natalia Rosa Jason Moore Claire Leona
I absolutely love how you describe everything and try simplifying it for us that havent studied it as much as you. One possible thing that might help is maybe some drawings? Idk how much of an artist you are but if you want to maybe help your descriptions some more you could draw or model the bigger theories on something. But even if you don't, youre very good at describing things yourself without it
I suggest he models. He said he’s bad a writing so idk if he’d be good at drawing. But yeah, any visuals would really help for us less intellectual beings. Lol
Everyone has a different way of learning, some can do just fine reading the material and coming to their own conclusions, some like interaction eg, teacher , some requires more visual context like charts or videos, diagrams, and others need hands on learning. Bit hard to cover all the bases of learning styles, especially with this subject
I don't know if ya want any feedback and I enjoyed this video plenty as is, but I think showing some clips from the movie and using it as a specific jumping-off point for a concept would really help the flow of this! I only add this, because I am here for the long run! Love your videos and hope this channel keeps growing!
I think it's absolutely fascinating how the end of the movie was the representation of a 5th Dimensional Reality built so we 3 dimensional creatures could understand it.
Dude our hsc assesment was based on the physics principles within interstellar. If you posted this 4 months earlier, I wouldnt have had to pull an allnighter the day it was due xd
Hey Dylan, do you think you could make a video talking about the possibility (or impossibility) of a Dyson Sphere? Where we could harness the energy of the sun
I wouldn't even know what to begin writing about publishing a paper about that black hole scene.. " yeah ummmmm it made some lights around the black hole. ...Yeah, ok, bye"
The tesseract is interesting because it's mentioned if I recall that future humans intentionally create that tesseract to save him (and thus humanity) so that humans can become those later future selves. A bit of a time paradox.
This film was the reason I became an astronomer, physicist and over all in love with our future as humans. I became very obsessed with finding out about the fundamentals of life itself, space and time. Space is truly our future not "Us" but our future generations, they will be picking up where we left and live a life with much less limits and wont have to live in a dying planet. Hopefully we stop war and conflict, and come together as a species that just works on improving our technology and understanding of our physical environment and quantum physics around it. Maybe we will I hope, I really do because if we do only our mortality will be one of few major obstacle. Mathematics needs to evolve more and we cant just leave it up to a limited amount of individuals we have to all put in our part as Mankind.
omg they way you explained the curvature of the universe and how it would bend with a black hole in a sheet of paper made me think of that episode of The Simpsons when Homer goes to our dimension....
Dylan, I obviously know that you are a physicist... but what exactly did you "specialise" in? Or , what would be your favourite aspect or part of physics?
Would love to hear your thoughts on Donnie Darko 😁 the movie still confuses me a little bit. Time travel, wormholes, destiny, diverging paths. It's a lot to take in if the average person doesn't really put some time into researching some stuff
It's actually always filled. It contains the maximum amount of information that it's possible to pack into that space. That's why it has to grow if it 'eats'.
I was watching Interstellar again today and everytime i watch o fet confuse in the last part. Actually when Cooper enters the 5 dimension, from there on i was never able to concentrate on the film, my mind itself starts connecting and thinking about the past incidents... It becomes a web inside my mind
What I don't understand about the move is I thought that when you enter a very large black hole the observer (us, the audience) would see the person essentially be melted down to ashes because of Hawking Radiation whereas from the participants perspective they would just pass through on their long journey to the singularity (if it exists) or through the wormhole. We didn't really see that in the movie though, as the observers we just saw him pass the event horizon. Isn't that the information paradox?
I'm trying to wrap my head around this as someone with no knowledge on this and I just see time as a constant which is the observer. at any point in which you as the observer walk towards something you are compressing time and making the constant slower if you walk away you are expanding it and making it faster. regardless of if the object moves or if you move you are both travelling at the same constant individually, you could argue the constant is different at given moments but at the time you meet you are at the same point in time. the same for black holes which compress light, or supernovas that expand it. I guess the time travel idea in interstellar is based around the idea that a blackhole stops time and then if teleported out you appear at a different point in it, which is just the same as travelling faster than light. you are still aging along with everyone at the same rate just you are using a different medium to travel so the observer bias (the fact everything is a reflection of something that has already happened) is unaccounted for. but using the observer bias (when you move away from something at the speed of light it ceases to age/stop moving) means that relative everything is constant in time, that would just mean you wouldn't travel back to that observed point just be in a different space (like a wormhole) because you moved faster than the observable portion of that travel. a lot of scifi revolves around this idea if you travel far away and come back that everyone is aged but it doesnt work like that and I dont see how it could work like that given if you were observed in your travel then its the same time frame and if for whatever reason you could return instantly all you are doing is compressing the mirror back to the current state you as the traveller/observer are in at the moment you touch (equilibrium). idk just my thoughts from thinking about this.
want to add I would like to understand more, I just understand time as a constant not any theoretical stuff. but yeah time travel to me seems impossible because in order to create a negative of time would just destroy your own observer universe compressing it to a negative and because time is observer based it would just spit out on the other side nothing in an alternate observer universe. the idea of a 5th dimension is just the idea of travelling faster than light, you cant theoretically undo time as its a human construct but spatial positioning is possible at faster rates than light so you could see infinite reflections of yourself if you wanted through a mirror. gravity I guess is this 5th dimension of understanding we need to pass the constant of time for exploration :P.
I think I understand. The first wormhole they use to get to the blackhole is a wormhole through space/time. Then the blackhole acts as a wormhole to a different dimension? Then he is navigated out of the blackhole/other dimension, back to space/time?
Can you look into Star Trek 2009 film. How the Romulan ship is able to travel through time. Is it similar to Interstellar? Loving your channel. Thanks!
This dude is a physicist AND has the looks of a model? How is that even fair? Jokes aside, this is very interesting and I am so fascinated by theoretical physics. Interstellar is an absolute masterpiece of a movie. It’s highly underrated.
The creative physicist he mentioned is named NIMA ARKANI HAMED not Armani Ahmed. Thanks for the suggestion though -I enjoy your videos and it makes me want to delve back into school and study physics
Dyan J. Dance Hi just wanned to ask. Do you enjoy watching movies like Interstellar and when it pops out something that does not sound right in the film, does that make you not watch the movie. P.S. My english is bad sorry.
Do you find there to be a depiction of The Bootstrap Paradox in regards to future humans creating a device to save the Human race in the past? How did the Humans survive to create said device if they didn't have the tesseract save them in the first place?
I have a request that could make for an interesting video. It's to do with infinites. It's to do with a comic book character and an anime character. Would The Flash who can accelerate and move infinitely be able to touch Gojo from the anime Jujustu Kaisen who has the ability to make a barrier of infinite space by using the infinite number of halves between 0 and 1. Basically would the flash be able to win in the story Achilles and the tortoise. This might take some research if you don't know the characters but I'd love a physicists perspective.
@@TheDwarfishjoe huh what is that suposed to me i love both of the thinghs this dood is talking about and im out all the time parties, bars, clubs,ect almost all the time.just couse someone likes those things dosint meant there some fucking loser.look at the vid your waching right now just couse you might be some bum with no life dosint mean he is
