  1.  @ifbfmto9338  wow, literally no one has ever thought of this before, must be hard being smarter than literally every scientist working on dark matter

  2. You greatly underestimate how much professors make, especially at his level

  3. 5:05 the dead zone is where effectively all scientific papers live. One notable exception being “Will any crap we put into graphene increase its electrocatalytic effect?” published last year

  8. " I live in America," oh you mean the country that's performing this mission? The only country to have successfully landed something on Mars? The country that spends the most on research and development? The country that has the best college system? The country with the most scientific paper published and the most citations? you need to get out of the "America is the worst at everything" bubble

  9.  @asitpaul423  uh, no? They have an orbiter, that's it

  10. It’s easier to see the moon that’s 382 500 km than it is to see a city that’s 100 km away

  11. Gareeb Scientist yeah but that require someone beside the Americans being able to successfully land something on mars, which has not yet happened

  12. 9:22 why does the probability drop off below 20?

  13.  @HungryLoki  then why do so many Europeans come to the US to go to school?

  14. The world is binary, either something is a knot or it is not

  15. Isn’t that more or less what quantum field theory is? There don’t exist any discreet particle but rather local maxima in fields

  16. Yung GOD luckily the ESA isn’t running this mission so it probably won’t crash

  17. My lab has an IPES instrument and it’s very sensitive to noise from the environment. We recently moved out lab form the basement to the top floor and saw a non trivial spike in our background signal. I dont know if it was cosmic rays but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was

  19. P is phosphorus and Po is polonium. Besides, it’s hardly the only inconsistency

  21. If the wheel is driving the propeller, how does the car start? Surely it’s the other way round, the propeller takes energy from the wind by slowing it down in the forward direction and this is what drives the wheels

  22. The experiment seems similar to the ones run to find neutrinos, how do they discriminate between light from neutrinos and light from dark matter?

  23. @ yes. You can definitely both 2 and 4 as iterations of unity, define combination and define equality. There is a reason addition is taught to literal children

  24.  @GodplayGamerZulul  man, reading is hard for some people, isn’t it?

  25. Somewhat odd that the method we use to control avalanches (allowing smaller, controlled avalanches) is the exact opposite of how we treat fires

  30. suf sanin how exactly? The don’t exactly have a stellar record sending stuff to mars

  31.  @sufsanin1917  kinda hard to hide sending stuff to mars, and they've crashed everything so far Try to remember this is country with fewer people than Bangladesh, an economy smaller than South Korea that couldn't figure out how to build an olympic village "But Russians were the first to launch a satellite to Mars." after more than a decade of failures and even then, the orbiters didn't fulfill their mission, NASA had the first flyby, successful orbiter and lander "And they archived much more "firsts" than America so I think that they are more advanced." this is so unspeakably dumb, i honestly hope you're trolling

  32.  @sufsanin1917  What other points? You have a childish, ignorant and just overall dumb understanding of any and all pertinent information. Just because the Soviet Union once did some stuff that doesn't mean anything now, certainly not that russia not only is capable of landing stuff on Mars, something they've never been able to do successfully, but also of hiding it from the entire world

  33.  @sufsanin1917  "NASA were more successful as the Russians already did the necessary experiments" citation needed and if this were true, why weren't the Russians then also more successful?

  34. 20:19 I’m missing something. How can the statement about g have a godels number of g? Surely it’d be some constant (the rest of the statement) times g

  35. The phrasing on the question is the problem, there are not three separate options, there is not way to flip tails and only wake up on Monday or on Tuesday, they are inherently linked. There are only two options, wake up on Monday or on Monday and tuesday

  36. No one is suggesting that light travels at different speeds in different directions, they’re saying our observation are as consistent with that as they are with a universal speed

  39.  @lepassant478  " "The best college system" lmao, patriotism/20" how exactly does patriotism work if it's not your country? Besides, it's not me saying it, it's these guys for several years running now https://universitas21.com/network/u21-open-resources-and-publications/u21-rankings/u21-ranking-national-higher-education

  40. @Aspy "one of the largest" is there a larger western country I'm unaware of? " they have the population, budgets and economy respectively to do so" does Europe not? The soviet union? China? Why are they so good at landing when everyone else can only manage to crash?

  41.    "Canada is larger than the USA" yeahno, the US has a greater land area by like 50,000 sq km plus 300,000,000 more people "Brazil is almost as big" Congratulations, did I say no one was close? Learn to read

  42.    perhaps not but you do have google, which you should endeavor to use

  43. Its fitting that the National lab that messes around the most on its veritasium video is in Florida

  44. of course it did, it wasn't a European mission
