watched this yesterday still thinking of some of the stuff talked about. Had me in existential dread talking about the galaxy, universes, time distortions, black holes etc

Big Brian Cox is one of the coolest brahs alive srs
Einstein level smart, and incredibly good at explaining scientific concepts
I listen to him whenever I see him on something -
Glad you guys are taking an interest in physics.Death to all genocidal fascists. Glory to the revolution! Glory to the workers!Comment

I listen to maybe 45 minutes of astrophysicists speaking per day. Absolutely love it and I know quite a bit. If I wasn't in tech, I'd be in astrophysics I think.
The most interesting things to me:
1. Whether or not the universe is infinite. We're nearly certain it's bigger than the observable universe (due to expansion faster than light), and there's no reason to assume it stops. It either wraps onto itself, or is infinite. We haven't detected even the slightest curve.
2. Nobody has the slightest clue how the BB happened.
3. Many-worlds theory (quantum physics, particles behaving differently upon observation, this might suggest the act of observing "snaps" a reality into place, meaning there are nearly infinite universes that are different based on which one you snap into and observe)Comment

I enjoy the video but would have liked more Brian and less Joe.Comment
