AFAIK, the closest that we've been to confirming Hawking radiation has been with "fluid analog simulations of blackholes", essentially considering waves in a fluid as spacetime/quantum waves, and having fluid drain thru a hole under controlled conditions and detecting waves escaping the fluid flow right at the threshold where the flow towards the drain starts getting faster than the wave speed in the fluid, and finding the behavior matches the predictions of Hawking's math with the adaptations to a fluid surface instead of 3d space.

@mrln247 Год назад

Pretty sure they have used both acoustic as well as fluid black hole analogues, definitely some of them have shown the Hawking radiation effect. Won't really be measurable at astronomical scale as it's incredibly weak compared with distance and noise. Definitely some videos I've seen on it but can't remember exactly who.

If I'm not mistaken the CMB was discovered by a team at Bell Labs. This team was looking for noise that might interfere with television/radio signals. No matter where they pointed their "telescope," they detected static that was later determined to be the CMB.

@xXxTeenSplayer Год назад

That's fairly accurate. The important thing is that the CMB was predicted, BEFORE it was detected. Predictive power is the foundation of a good theory.

actually they were looking for why analog TVs would pick up static where there was no useful signals, in an attempt to figure out ways to prevent it. So they were investigating where it came from and what created it.

Concerning the x37, consider this: THE PLACE to deploy nuclear armed hypersonic glide vehicles is in orbit. The shortest route to target is not from one continent to another, it is from directly over the target. And a hypersonic glide vehicle launched from orbit would not exhibit that annoying and detectable boost phase of rocket engines lifting it to orbit. They would just drop. A guided rod from god.

Interferometers are an interesting use of data. But two might let you do science but would not allow you to recreate a sensible image, just two pixel's really having more in a small constellation I know for GPS they want 7 points of reference for an exact location. Trying to engineer I to keep each detector in a consistent location to the other would be an incredible engineering challenge, although they have managed to measure gravitational waves which is ridiculous.

@grkvlt 3 месяца назад

interforometry _for imaging purposes_ using multiple recievers, as in vlbi, is the difficult bit when using short wavelengths. obviously individual interferometery instruments using visible light can be built and have existed for a long time

@Czeckie Год назад

18:00 I think the answer should contain words like 'fourier analysis'. It's a mathematical method how to extract periodic components from a signal data. This idea is used everywhere in technology from audio to MRI scans. In audio think of sound decomposing into basic sine waves. Here in the radial method, the wobble is a sum of it's periodic parts - the various planets. Extracting these modes gives you the planets. Sort of. It's more complicated surely, but this is the basic idea.

Re Hoth I am quite convinced, that the question whether there is live elsewhere in the solar system will transfer into the question, how exactly we define life.

Hey Fraser, I vote for Kamino. Tell me what you think of an Orion nuclear propulsion spaceship? It was designed in the 1960s to be built with 1960s technology. It would be a great way to go to Mars in a couple of months instead of nearly a year, one way, with conventional rockets. It can also carry heavy cargo. There's the idea that it could be lifted into orbit by a ring of solid booster rockets, which will avoid nuclear detonations on the surface or atmosphere.

Kamino: The biggest solution to space travel is reliable fusion power. Fusion power will provide plenty of power for propulsion, allow us to have rotating habitats, and protect us from radiation.

They probably should have tested the pin release mechanism on the little shuttle dealie for 2 years before betting the farm on it. Future probe missions should simply avoid all the automatic latches and deployment machinery and just put a little Canada-Arm on there to unfold all the things. It could even have a little hammer to perform percussive maintenance now and then. One good bonus would be for it to pick up a spare gyro and position it in the direction that is needed when the others start to wear out. Perhaps it could detach it and puff it away, then grab another if it becomes hopelessly saturated. Otherwise, it could move a fold-out, mylar-coated, giant tennis racket for a particular orientation thrust effect that is not stuck to one direction. The possibilities will make little arms on satellites and probes an eventual necessity. It would allow for complex configuration changes for the mission phases. Being able to put an item away or take it out of a shielded interior will certainly have value in long duration missions.

[Coruscant] Regarding looking for Hawking Radiation, it's not likely to work at the smallest scales of black holes, which would be those primordial black holes. Once the black holes get tiny enough, let's say with a mass of the Planck mass, and a radius of 1 Planck Length, there just won't be enough energy that can be produced in a quantum fluctuation, often enough to evaporate a black hole away completely. You'd need a quantum fluctuation with the energy of 1 Planck Energy to evaporate a black hole of 1 Planck Mass, and that energy itself will end up creating the black hole that it was supposed to evaporate. In fact, Planck mass black holes may be so stable that they may form the basis of what we call Dark matter in the universe!

@@jessepollard7132 No, that's the beauty of the super tiny black holes, they are even smaller than protons. A PMBH can fit inside a proton, and the proton would look as big to the PMBH as a galaxy does to a proton! Now the PMBH would weigh much more than the proton, it would have the Planck Mass afterall. But the most that would do is it would displace the particles out of the way, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a PMBH passing through and standard Brownian motion. It could definitely not swallow any particles bigger than itself.

Kamino, what about the "Radiation bubble" concept of using the excess radiation from a large and poorly shielded, in most directions, Fission reactor. This, as I understand, would be more like an artificial heliosphere as opposed to the Earth's magnetosphere. It could reduce the total exposure, and a spacecraft with one reactor at each end could have significant coverage with two circular radiation shields/water tanks. Pump all water to one end for accel/decel burns and split for 50/50 power production during the coast phase of flight. I haven't heard much about this concept in a while.

Re: search for life. One common feature of life, no matter it's origin or form, is that it acts against entropy. It doesn't reverse it, but it acts as a brake, limiting or slowing it down. So, if we measure the total entropy of a location, say a planet confined by its gravity well, and we have a comprehensive way of measuring the entropy of this planet, we should be able to use the entropy state as a marker for the potential of life. It's interesting that life is perhaps the one other force in nature that acts against entropy. The other would be gravity.

Coruscant. So, an Earth-mass black hole is still colder than the current CMB. That means it won't start losing mass (if Hawking radiation is true) until the universe has cooled down even more. The Moon is warmer than the current CMB, so it could be radiating more than it is absorbing. Earlier in time, the CMB was Lot warmer through, so a primordial black hole the size of the Moon may not have been shrinking back then. What is the original size range of black holes that would be evaluating now?

In the 'Universe Today Podcast' outro, there's a cellphone. I have that cellphone, and I love it. I just wish Apple didn't stop service for it. I would use it as my daily-driver phone, for the rest of my life, probably, if Apple had allowed that. (iPhone 4s is the model I have)

What about a magnetic force to deter the cosmic rays

@DneilB007 Год назад

Magnetize the hull of your spacecraft and coat it with the debris floating around in orbit. Build up about 1-2m thick of junk metal & use that as shielding. Solves two problems-less space junk hitting our satellites, and fewer people dying from radiation.

I'm interested into why many quantum physicists researching entanglement are more convinced that faster than light non locality are responsible for spooky action at a distance rather than hidden variables. Wouldn't most evidence for non locality also be explained by a variable we can't detect?

On Re: Search for life: Has any one considered the concept that there might be types of life based on other factors than chemistry, such as life based on plasma organized by/generating magnetic flux in various environments such as stars large or small; neutron stars; magnatars, early era Universe; etc?

Hi, I have a question. Why the first light that got thru in the recombination era is assumed to be red? I thought it was much hotter.

@jessepollard7132 Год назад

it is also moving away from us, and the frequency of the emitted light goes down.

@denispol79 Год назад

@@jessepollard7132 Hi! Yes, that part I understand. My question is - How do we know that the original wavelength was in visible red range?

@jessepollard7132 Год назад

@@denispol79 normally done by looking at the spectrum, thus identifying the atoms that released the photons - then comparing them to the known spectrums of local atoms. When matched - the offset of the spectrum specifies amount of the red shift of the original atom as measured from us.

@Fraser Cain I am rather curious about your, and your audience's thoughts on this. Could Black holes eventually be the only matter left in the universe, simply eating/merging with one another until all that is left is one black hole that contains all the matter in the universe, as a singularity in it's core. Could that be a cyclical universe? Or maybe that happened in another universe and our universe is the remains of another previous universe and we are in fact in a black hole? It's 3 am here, maybe I should sleeep. Thnx.

Well, considering the effects of cosmic radiation in an earlier segment, it seems to make sense that they would test their hardware and software for long term effects of being in space. I wonder how much damage will accumulate to the spacefaring Tesla over time. Might be some useful data there, perhaps?

Ha ha ha, "Take a tattoo". :-D One hint of position of your head altitude. You remember from school the "golden line". So, do not fit your head middle of the screen - just rise your chair about 5 - 10 cm or tilt your web camera 1 - 2 degrees down.

@nerufer Год назад

Dear Fraser, I would love to hear from you what you think about the origin of life on earth and why we still havent figured out how to make life out of lifeless material. Will we ever figure it out?

@mihan2d Год назад

Another question. How come Neptune has the most intense winds in the Solar system despite receiving so little energy? I know this is at least partially a mystery but are there any good hypotheses? I heard the 750 degrees C thermosphere is the real mystery about it but those two gotta be connected. Also, what is your opinion on the relatively short (250-350 years) timescale on the Mars terraformation effort in the Expanse? Too unrealistic for the hyperrealistic sci-fi setting of the Expanse?

@JROD082384 Год назад

Neptune has internal heating from radioactive sources that primarily contribute to generating the winds. Solar gain is a small, but not entirely insignificant, factor, given Neptune’s low albedo. It’s not rocket science. It’s not even high school science. This is elementary school science.

@jessepollard7132 Год назад

doesn't take much - there is a lot of atmosphere there, and it was hot when it initially formed.

@dakshpaliwal483 Год назад

A point on the cosmic ray problem... What if we harness neutrons and make a sheet of 'em and put them on our spacecrafts, maybe that will stop the cosmic rays as they are dense and tough. Maybe its the expense of this idea that might prevail in the minds of its judges, but i thought it was worth a try....!

My guess for x-37, it’s a maneuverable communication satellite, countries are shooting satellites out of space, it’s smart to have a maneuverable communication satellite

Say we do a gravity boost to get at 100kms, head to mars, how do we slow down without using fuel? Can we use gravity to slow us down too?

@PupitoManuel Год назад

If all other masses in the cosmos are moving away from us in all directions, maybe our galaxy is the center of the universe. Otherwise, based on the direction of travel of all objects and their speed in relation to everything else, we could calculate where are we all moving away from. Can someone help with this?

@MrMark069 Год назад

Coruscant - Black holes are continuously absorbing CMB. So is hawking radiation predicted to be quick enough to even offset this mass gain? Maybe it won't be detectable until the CMB has lost enough energy/mass through expansion to tip the scales. I'd love to see if anyone has done the math.
