One of the best explanations of time!!
boy has this podcast been there for me. super grateful that it exists. can’t believe how time goes. i remember when the first episode came out and how excited i was to learn some physics. its been a journey and i am looking forward for daniel’s next podcast.
Great episode!!!
the Universe is not boring ✨️
I loved this episode!
thank you it was so intersting . i like to listen it several times ❤
It won't make any sound.
I really enjoy your fruitfull podcasts. Thanks 🌹
Totally asked Daniel this question and he quickly responded with the link to this episode🌹☀️
you guys are the best!! love listening to your episodes
Sturm and Drang! Was that a Destiny reference, or a German lit reference?
I hope so!
I bet it is!
And back to listen this !
I don’t understand why we need dark matter to explain spiral galaxies. Seems very simple to me the arms have become gravitationally locked and they are pulling arms along much like spinning a rope round in a circle. How far does our sun gravity hold influence? What’s furthest object that’s orbiting us? I can see things being spread out just enough so gravity just keeps hold. Anyway I expect simple explanation make me look stupid
episode title is such a good question 🤯
sea foam mermaid tears-gosh i love katie-her little touch to daniels scripted cold opening
Do you guys ever wonder if astronomical objects like black holes or even stars aren't intelligent? As Daniel said, intelligence may be difficult to define, let alone understand. some sometimes I think that we are being deceived by our own nature thinking that out human nature as a model somehow. maybe it's the exception.
Worst part of this potcast is the frequent and lengthy advertisement, blaring at several decibels above the podcast volume level. Worse than annoying, bordering the harassment.
Wow, particle physics doesn't even make his top 3 for funding. Who'd have thought 😄
