The chapter delves into the complex concepts of time, space, and our perception of reality, discussing the idea of time stopping for individuals and the past, present, and future as dimensions we pass through. It includes references to famous quotes, the Bible, Beyonce, and a humorous exchange on focus. The hosts explore Quantum Entanglement, subspace communication, gravity as the curvature of space-time, and scenarios involving asteroids and light distribution from stars.
Are black holes places or objects? Neil deGrasse Tyson and cohosts Chuck Nice and Gary O’Reilly answer grab-bag questions about distorting spacetime, Olbers’ Paradox, singularities, the shape of the universe, and more with astrophysicist Charles Liu.
