In this mind-bending episode of "Uncommon Understanding of the Universe," host Gary Lyon Otto explores a groundbreaking theory about the universe's origins and structure. What if the universe has always been a black hole? And how does this idea change our understanding of the Big Bang? Dive deep into the intricacies of cosmic mass, Planck lengths, and the ever-changing velocity of light as Gary unpacks the mathematical mysteries that suggest our universe began in an unimaginably small, dense singularity.
Listen as Gary explains the staggering scale of the universe, where stars vastly outnumber grains of sand on Earth, and how the very nature of existence hinges on the interaction and observation of events. Discover the relationship between mass, light, and time, and how the universe has expanded from a tiny primordial black hole to its current vastness.
Whether you're a seasoned physicist or just curious about the cosmos, this episode will challenge your perceptions and expand your understanding of the universe.

In this episode, we delve into the fascinating and complex world of black holes, focusing on the different types of motion that occur near these enigmatic objects. We explore how radial and tangential motions are treated differently in the Schwarzschild metric, a key concept in understanding the behavior of objects near a black hole's event horizon. Discover the significance of local time flow—referred to as "tau" or wristwatch time—and how it affects acceleration and particle interactions in the intense gravitational fields of black holes.
Our discussion takes us through the intricate details of how local experiences and time distortions influence the behavior of objects, leading to profound insights into the nature of space and time. We also touch on the concept of absolute space and relative time, challenging conventional views on black holes and their surrounding environments.
Join us as we uncover the nuances of general relativity, Schwarzschild metrics, and the mysteries of time near black holes, all while avoiding the mathematical complexities to focus on the fundamental ideas that shape our understanding of the universe.

In this installment of Uncommon Understanding of the Universe, host Gary Lyon Otto and co-host Patrick Madden delve into the complex interplay between special and general relativity. They revisit the concept of ambient space-time, comparing it to the experience of moving through still air, and discuss how this ties into Einstein's revolutionary ideas. This episode also introduces Schwarzschild Geometry, named after the brilliant mathematician Karl Schwarzschild, whose work provided an exact solution to Einstein's general relativity equations.
Listeners will gain insights into the differences between special and general relativity, the nature of gravitational effects on time, and the concept of the Schwarzschild radius—the critical boundary around a black hole where the laws of physics as we know them break down. Join us as we journey deeper into the mysteries of the universe, exploring thought experiments, the event horizon, and the unending acceleration towards the speed of light. This episode is a mind-expanding exploration of the very fabric of reality.

In this mind-expanding episode, we dive deep into the mysteries of the universe's shape, the speed of light, and the fundamental forces that govern all existence. Starting from the Big Bang as a central point, we explore theories about the universe being a sphere, discuss the concept of a "flat" universe, and unravel why the universe might actually be a vast, expanding black hole. We also ponder whether the laws of physics were bestowed upon the universe or if they emerged from the universe’s expansion itself. Join us as we touch on the constants that allow life to exist, the nature of consciousness and observation, and the fascinating idea of a digital universe where every event is recorded for eternity. This conversation is a profound journey into understanding the very fabric of reality, challenging conventional scientific perspectives along the way.
