The same waves that are hitting that radio are hitting me.
I don't feel them.
The radio detects them.
So we can detect things today that people 500 years ago couldn't detect.
But there's a whole type of matter and energy that is called dark matter and dark energy that...
we have no ability to detect not just with my physical body we have no tools to detect them that's why it's called dark matter and dark energy as you say well how do you even know it's there then good question and it's there by difference so in other words they look at the matter and energy that must formed in the creation of the universe the big bang event and there's
a lot missing, and that is what they call dark energy and dark matter.
Now that's not to say that someday we might have a tool that we, hey, we can detect this dark matter.
What to us right now, we're blind to.
one day we will detect.
And I presume every year there's discoveries and dark energy, and maybe one day we'll be able to tap into that energy and use it as an energy form to run our world.
So there's lots of things as scientists we don't understand.
There's far more that we don't understand than we do understand.
In many ways, we don't even know how to ask the questions
of why don't we understand this because we don't even know it was there.
Why do we have the fine tuning of the universe?
Why are the physical constants the way they are?
If you change the dipole moment of water, just a fraction, dipole moment is the amount of electron density on one side of a water molecule versus another.
If that would change just a fraction, there's no life.
There's no life.
