Astrophysicist Answers Questions From Twitter | Tech Support | WIRED

Yes? Yes.

I wannabe an astrophysicist

i love tech support, i didnt like this one and this person. yes he has an energy and some wittyness that attracts general public but the the quality of the explanations on tech support shall be measured, it has to be vulgarized enough to be comprehensible to a non expert audience and people don't get caught up in the unnecessary details but not too much that your information is so limited that we can understand something totally different or the explanation is simply so innacurate that it is false. Lots of experts on tech support have achieved that balance, he didnt. He went wayyyyy too simple and honestly sometimes it was so vulgarized that it was straight up innacurate.

I expected a better answer to the speed of light question. Improbable sure, but impossible? I mean, there is one thing we know for sure travels at the speed of light, if there is one, there can be others. Maybe he just meant accelerate to the Speed of Light?

Is astro a dog on the jettsons.or is the jettsons a astro on the dog show.

He seems so confident about everything he says, almost like ChatGPT😅

To be fair? Many FTL travel in sci-fi explain that if you look. Andromeda and others move you into "another dimension" for lack of a better term and you wormhole PTP.

If some parts of the universe are expanding faster than the speed of light maybe the only thing that can go faster than light it's dark matter.

Can you find questions like this on Twitter now and if so are the replies serious and not the typical crap we see on there?

dude answered nothing

He is one of my favorite astrophysicists, I first saw him on the show: how the universe works

i would listen to him speak for 10 hours straight

Dark matter is everything that isn’t already a thing

IMHO Neil deGrasse Tyson does a better job at explaining things to non-astrophysicists.

Are there any planets in orbits that might be ... manufactured?
That is, something like 5 planets in same orbit, the liveable zone, in Trojan points?

Hey Vsauce! Michael here

Enjoyed this. Hopefully we'll see more of this guy in the future. The scientific education of the public can never have too many champions.

These were the best questions in this series.

Quasar fm better have a cheaper subscription than Sirius XM

God made the big bang. Simple.

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM WHATTTT

yes

“What happens when you travel faster than the speed of light?”
I KNOW THIS ONE!!!!
E = mc^2 MFS WHOOOOOOO

i have to keep reminding myself how much my first year physics class sucked because this guy is making me question why i quit astrophysics

It's unfortunate that some of the most interesting things about space and how it works are lost in translation when you over simplify things.

this video is complete bs, i exceed the speed of light every time my mom tries to beat me smh

But how did the Big Bang even happen? I mean the very absolute beginning of everything. I’m not trying to get all religious troll on anyone, don’t worry, I literally just can’t find the answer anywhere, the closest I can find is the Higg’s Boson but how was that created? I’m trying to go as deep into the rabbit hole as possible.

Could you maybe go faster than light using a circle? Rotate the middle to close the speed of light then the outer edge goes faster. Idk though not a scientist 😅

What if you going the speed of light and shine a light out of the spaceship would it be going faster then the speed of light?

Isn't the gravity in a black hole traveling faster than the speed of light?

His speed of light answers were totally no fun.

you can't go faster than the speed of light because the light police will getcha

(Sighs) you can travel faster than the speed of light, both technically and literally. The only problem is finding a means of propulsion independent of physics. The technical aspect is just a wormhole.🤫

So light speed will always be the same, no matter where you are in the universe, because it has to be.

While I'm willing to accept the universe has no edge, I'm struggling to understand why it has no center. Doesn't the expansion of the universe, space itself, mean that every point is simultaneously the center of the universe?

I really appreciate how this guy is so very much smarter than me, but doesn't make me feel stupid

that one book
HOW TO DIE


IN SPACE

That was a bad episode ...
