So that means you're telling, you're admitting, you're copying to the fact that you don't think communicating to your boss is important. And I find it shameful. And I don't think that everybody should be out of the lab, you know, tanking 20% of their time and learning how to communicate like Neil deGrasse Tyson. But they should spend some of that time.
And they're trained to do diversity inclusion. Yeah, yeah. You're trained. Or they're punished for not doing it, at least. Well, you won't even get in the door now. You won't even have your applications reviewed. I'm interested to see what happens in the coming administration as we speak.

I've traveled literally trillions of micrometers and billions of seconds to be here, and we are going to explore this universe together. Cosmology is the oldest science known to humanity. Since cavemen and women, people have wondered, where did everything come from? We're not going to do any alien autopsies or anything in this class, but we are going to cover a lot of fascinating questions.

Where do we come from? Where are we going? What is the universe made of? How can we possibly understand the grand landscape of the cosmos? When you look back in space, you look back in time. It's amazing we've been able to do this, to study the properties of the cosmos, time scales of billions of years, size scales billions of times bigger than our own.

And now the question is, can we go back to time equals zero? Can we go back to before time equals zero? And what does that even mean? I hope in this course to keep striving and asking these great questions, because without great questions, there can be no great answers. And without great answers, there can be no understanding.

You know, Jordan, I always joke, our profession, I call it the second oldest profession, right? I mean, there have been universities since the University of Bologna in Italy was established in 1082. And look how much has changed. There's a guy or a girl taking a piece of rock and scraping on another piece of rock. How innovative. After a thousand bloody years, we've done almost nothing different.

Okay, so there's PowerPoint, and that's not that much different, let's be honest, right? But what if there were the opportunity to bring in literal the visualizations that they've done on my first course, and I can't wait to see on the second course. And my third course is โ see, what's nice, I'm an experimental physicist. I'm not Brian Greene. I'm not โ

manipulating wormholes like my friend Kip Thorne and so forth, who did the science behind the movie Interstellar. I was the advisor to Christopher Nolan. I'm not a theoretical physicist. So what do I do? I do experiments. The more experiments, the better. But you only do another experiment because some aspect of the previous experiment failed. And that's fine.
