And not even knowing their five senses had limits. If its everything you know you think its everything the universe but try to give you but in fact, its not. And so around 160 1600 was inven of the microscope, one direction, and the telescope in the other direction. Each event it was a decade of one another. All of a sudden pieces of the universe, available to us that transcend our senses. Effectively, look inside a drop of pond water and see microorganisms just like just like doing the backstroke. Youre on a brain sentry could not detected were it not for the microscope. You say doesnt make sense that you have entire living creatures inside of a drop of water. Today we know that because we learned from childhood but in the day it may docents at all. He had communication with the royal academy, Royal Society in london, which is what you would normally do when you make a discovery. They thought he was drinking too much. Write another letter and then we can continue our scientific conver
Primary meanis theprimary meansl information about the universe not even knowing 160 around 1600 was the invention of the microscope in one direction and a telescope in the other direction. Its like doing the backstroke that your sensory systemed wouldnt detect it were it not for the microscope and you could think if that made sense to have entire living creatures inside a drop of water. Its what you normally do when you make a discovery and they thought he was drinking too much gin. They were in denial which is a natural thing to happen. One eyewitness testimony to confirm if its real and then we discover quantum physics how it falls completely outside of not only the sentences but our expectations for how anything should work. How can everything be expandinga at all. St host what is significant about the year 1600 . s a guest . You open up the floodgates when you combine lenses and they made a discovery back and the sky is the limit. N a host theres guest theres a little bit of clean
Degrasse tyson, director of Hayden Planetarium in new york city and the author of many books including welcome to the universe, death by black hole, and his latest, astrophysics for people in a hurry. Host dr. Neil Degrasse Tyson, in your new book, astrophysics for people in a hurry, you open it by saying that the universe is under no obligation to make sense to you. What does that mean . Guest get over it. [laughter] i think up until, well, really up til the year 1600 when we didnt have any particular tools to investigate be the natural world, our five senses were the primary means by which we obtained all information about the universe. And not even knowing that our five senses had limits. If its everything you know, you think its everything the universe is trying to give you but, in fact, its not. And so around 1600 with the invention of the microscope in one direction and then the telescope in the other direction, each invented within a decade of one another, then all of a sudden p
Ncssm coming in from the west and southwest and that will enhance the fog and usher in a cooling trend. For today, 50s through 80s and for a few, 90s. We have a stalled bus on the bay bridge in one of the right lanes, westbound on the San Francisco side of the bridge. That is all the way across and is causing slow traffic not only on the span but also at the toll plaza. I want to show you that traffic is barely moving. Sometimes we look at this and you can see that it is slow but moving along. Look at those cars. They look like they are absolutely at a standstill. This is a major problem for the bridge. They have slowed of those metering lights down because traffic on the bridge has become very slow. I would not recommend at this point using the bay bridge into San Francisco. I would recommend maybe taking bart or maybe use 880 to get down to the san mateo bridge which is not that bad right now. You have a window of opportunity to use the san mateo bridge or perhaps think about using t

I think up until the year 1600 when we had no particular tools to investigate the Natural World the five senses were the primary means we gave all information about the universe and not even knowing that our five senses had live and said everything you know, the thinking of letting tries to give you but it is not better run at 1500 it would go one direction than the telescope it was a decade within one another now it becomes available to us to transcend our senses to look inside a drop of pond water to see microorganisms doing the backstroke that the sensory system could not have detected with not for the microscope so the welcome to the universe tire living creatures living in a drop of water but today we know that from childhood but that made no sense at all without Royal Society in london when they make a discove
