Beware False Idols - Dr. Brian Keating, Cosmologist, UCSD

Great pod cast again. Thankyou both.

That tends to happen when we use a very idealized picture of the universe . The micro meteoroids , probably aren't the only things that can polarize the light , it can also be polarized by the gas in the early universe , probably many more objects that exist now , and expansion is just one type of motion , so even if you managed to remove the noise , you have only proved that things moved in the early universe.
Everything that I just said could be point less , because I don't think we know what gravity waves are ,and if they are even able to polarize light (in a vacuum). It not unreasonable to consider the possibility of G waves polarizing light , so I be interested to see the result of that experiment.

I am glad Brian started to take a liking to you guys. It was a good hand shake interview, for when you bring him back in and grill him, open flame. 😈

I was hoping you could interview James Demeo but sadly found out that he passed away in April of 2022.

I do recommend his book (The Dynamic Ether of Cosmic Space) as it's a thorough review of all the ether experiments and includes both Einstein and Newton's thoughts on the subject as well.

Yeah great one again! Many thanks 🙂

Id too really like to listen to what Sabine Hossenfelder has to say in this kind of your cozy, welcoming enviroment 🤗

Brian Keating is one of my favourite Science Explorer. A bit multiworded and gyrate as an interviewer, but a great talker all together.

An heartwarming and hopefull podcast examplary for what can become an open science method for the next generation of scientists and academics.

If it's hard to imagine a video replacing a published text, check out "I did the double slit experiment at home" by Looking Glass Universe as my favorite recent example. You get a real sense of how her progression on changing the conditions really changed her own view of what's going on, even though she was already a theoretical physics graduate. It epitomizes why I'm a huge fan of the video format for scientific experiments. It's the next best thing to doing the experiment yourself. Simply reading about it is like the last resort if you can't be there. Like, if Safire Project didn't have a YT channel where I could see the double layers and tuffs, then would I ever had been so impressed?

It's a funny coincidence that he mentions how light is polarized by water, as a random tidbit, while discussing the polarization of the CMB, when your good friend, The Sky Scholar, has argued that the CMB might actually be from our oceans. I just thought that was funny.

Is a real life Buzz Lightyear.

What a great conversation. I have so much time for scientists who show knowledge of and respect for subjects outside of science. Dr Keating is rich in culture in which he contextualizes his science. It makes him interesting to listen to.

Not the most en-depth conversation.

"Nobel oblige": aspirants are obliged to publish novel discoveries without blaspheming against core sacred beliefs of the Academy (Shhh... and the economic and political power interests of its reclusive patrons).

Einstein's Jewishness had nothing to do with his not receiving the Nobel Prize for Relativity: correct, that it - the Nobel Prize - was really given for inventions that benefit humanity but Einstein was in a mess his entire so-called scientific career. He was accused of plagiarism by numerous scientists and more than once challenged on it. He could not defend himself. Morally Einstein was a frikkin loser and intellectually, he was also a loser. We/humanity owe nothing to him. Einstein is a false idol! Absolutely!

The way Academia works is a strictly limited language of scientific terminology that intentionally excludes the type of subjectivity that has become associated with philosophy.., and philosophy is the nearest source of q-a cause-effect relative-timing emulation by AM-FM Communication In-form-ation to natural probabilistic existence in holographic flat-space ground-state No-thing-defined eternally principles, ie the Actuality of QM-TIMESPACE Cosmology.

If, as illuminated by the conversation, Academia does not reward actual Sciencing of the real-time holography Eternity-now Entanglement, this Quantum-fields Mechanism, then academic staff will do whatever pays well enough, of course.

Aristotelian binocular parallel coexistence awareness of Cosmological time-timing, a view of Actuality that is the constant wave-packaging interference mechanism that has always been line-of-sight and will always be, it's the simplest aspect of phenomena such as is re-presented by Huygens Optics channel, in which the holography reveals itself in 3D-T 2-ness logarithmic condensation of Bose-Einsteinian quantization cause-effect depth perception. It is how you see the Reductionist Observation fact of e-Pi-i infinitesimal Singularity-point constant connection, which means no explosion is required to explain eternal sync-duration resonance in a context of orthogonal-normal, axial-tangential, reciprocation-recirculation, i-reflection containment state where-when line-of-sight superposition of all log-antilog frequency density-intensity prime-cofactor multiple phased ratio-rates forms the tangency space picture of WYSIWYG Superspin hologram.

Bootstrapping Students will soon sort this out by their own undertaking.

But for those already acquainted with pure dynamic mathematical concepts of Calculus, Div, Grad and Curl expositions of a particular version of relative-timing quantization fields.. Grant at 3BLUE 1BROWN graphics channel is a master of explanations and can at least present basic concepts with which one can compose the Holographic Principle Eternity-now Entanglement Conception, after a lot of Mathematical Meditation and cross-sectional cross reference framework implied in e-Pi-i 1-0-infinity instantaneous positioning, (not explosive, quite simply the opposite).

Interesting that Dr Keating thinks the Nobel committee hasn’t made any bloopers, given how many of your past guests would seriously disagree. (Anything related to the big bang, as just one example.)

fantastic episode!!!
