Cities not ready for sea level rise says expert
A leading Australian oceanographer says Australia’s coastal cities, including Sydney, are “not viable” if high-end projections of future sea level rise from global warming play out.

How does climate change affect coral reef islands?
Переглядів 2563 місяці тому
Low-lying coral islands might seem like idyllic retreats, but did you know they form atop living reefs? These islands are Nature's intricate blend of sediments, skeletons, and the shells of diverse marine life. There are up to 700 of these islands across the world that could be at risk due to climate change. Recent estimates by scientists reveal a grim reality: a quarter of these coveted destin...

    The answer is universe we have to figure out right questions to ask for ans that is the universe. ~essence of greatest philosopher ever Douglas adams incredible book the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. It was such a significant video for specifically those science students who have incredible interest in researching,knowing and studying about incredibly wonderful and compelling things.well i loved how prof. Brian inspired after each ans to do research and come in science field. He is such benevolent person ever i see in my life EVERY time he has that incredible way of construing things with his humble smile. There are many unknown things in physics many questions but I think we should be comfortable with the unknown that's what the point of science is there are billions of billions of places and things out there for instance black holes, time travel , string theory,quantum mechanics, wormholes ( totally hypothetical) And many many things out there are such that we don't know nothing about them. And that's what make me excited about physics i wanna go and find out about them and that's what science is. Now "i think no one gets teased for being a science geek anymore like me science is the new rock in roll" I find when you get deeper more and more in PHYSICS you get bewildered and it's hard sometimes but it's incredibly astonishing and beautiful. And being a science fiction lover i think this makes us feel so intriguing in PHYSICS intuitively. And now having this thinking about becoming multiplanetry species and to go among stars that even is essentially significant. Despite what social media and people wants you to think we can build a great future i think .people should be optimistically curious i think to build a great idea into reality it really takes strong willing. We should think that our future is bright and it will be more in upcoming years when we will be making humans space bearing civilization and increasing the scope and scale of human consciousness it's " the future worth getting excited about".🚀

    • @schmetterling4477
      @schmetterling4477 26 днів тому

      He is enthusiastic, all right, but many of his explanations are lacking. The speed of light question, for instance, has two good answers: the first one is experimental. We have never observed any speed that is greater than the speed of light. Until such an observation happens we have to refrain from assuming that it's possible and all our theories have to contain an absolute speed limit. The second one is theoretical: if the universe is metric (and we have never seen it not to be) and if all physics is relative, then there are only two possible solutions to how coordinate systems relate to each other. One of them is Galilean, the other one Lorentzian. The Galilean framework does not support matter, while the Lorentzian one predicts the very matter that we observe. So, if we want to have a non-empty universe, then we have to accept an upper speed limit.

      For the most part we consist of silly people who take nonsensical answers seriously. He claims, for instance, that all possible universes exist. That is bollocks, even within the confines of a multiverse model. There are only very specific kinds of universes that can exist within scientific reason and none of them contain magic. Most possible universes are not even stable and they can't even "exist" for any length of time. They are, at most, transient states. Which stable universes can exist for some length of time is simply unknown. It's not a question science can answer. Not even a little. A theorist should know better than to pretend that we can.

    Does all light travel at the same speed as the light we (our sun) see? You say there are multiple galaxies which have suns which are larger or smaller than ours, is the light the same color or (frequency) as ours and if not how fast does that light travel...if it's different than what happens to your math?

    • @schmetterling4477
      @schmetterling4477 26 днів тому

      It depends on what you mean by "at the same speed". In free, flat space, yes. In gravitating systems, however, and in an expanding universe the answer is negative. We even have measurements of the additional light travel time between planets in our solar system that are caused by gravity. This effect is, for all we know, not dependent on the frequency or wavelength of the light.

      We have no observational data that indicates that the universe will re-collapse. We never had that data. That model was popularized by Steven Weinberg in his book "The First Three Minutes". He clearly expressed that it was his personal favorite rather than science fact and it could have solved the homogeneity problem, which is why there was a lot of theoretical interest in it in the 1970s. It does, however, not fit any of the observed cosmological data.
