The History of Museums: Crash Course Art History #3

Ancient Versions of Museums
Cabinets of Curiosities
Colonialism & Museums
Critiques of Museums

    Seeing the private collection thing is making me daydream of my goal of having a hobby room where a bunch of both official and fanmade merch of my favorite fandoms can be displayed. Prints, pins, keychains, and more just on display for me and my friends to enjoy. Maybe someday I’ll win the lottery and go on a shopping spree on Etsy and Shopify and Big Cartel lol.

    I've just always accepted as a fact that the universe is infinite and after 26 years today I heard for the first time that we just don't have (and never will have) an idea about wether there's an edge out there somewhere. How is it that everyone just casually assumes our universe is infinite? And with "everyone" I mean every single teacher and professor I ever talked to about that😅

    • @AstralJustus
      @AstralJustus 2 дні тому

      I think its because evolution works based on specific environments. What works in one area for one single cell organism doesnt work in another environment. For multicellular organisms its the same until they become stable enough to not change so much. Some say that everything will eventually evolve into a crab shape since crabs are apex evolution but you should look into that.

    Okay, here's a thing that I struggle to wrap my head around. It's easy to say "this thing in the early universe only lasted for 1^-34 of a second", but how can that be understood as a linear understanding of the passage of time if time is relative to mass? Like...many science communicators talk about how people on Earth's surface age faster than those in the ISS due to the space-time curve associated with Earth's gravity. Doctor Who went even further with this concept in an episode where a space colony was stuck while descending into a black hole. The people at the front of the ship (closer to the black hole) had experienced many, many generations. Meanwhile, for the people at the back of the ship, the accident that caused their situation had just happened. If the universe was, at some point, basically infinitely dense, the timescale seems like it would hardly matter. 1^-34 seconds may seem nearly instantaneous to us "now" (i.e. in our current configuration), but it would almost certainly be something experienced as "normal time" from the frame of reference defined as "within the Big Bang". Is there a way to understand this more clearly? Like...some formula that works to adjust and normalize the scale of space and time? I keep thinking, "okay, well if I assume that time was much slower to an observer, the mass of the Universe must also appear to be much smaller." Or else, maybe I should understand this as "the Big Bang happened a long time ago, but only if I assume that it's also happening right now because 'then' is still technically 'now'". Are we just...the crew at the front of the ship? One, that seems too easy. Two, that sounds too close to being an explanation of dark energy and mass. Not only am I confident that someone far more educated than I am would have already considered that, but it also doesn't help me answer the dark matter question of galactic rotation. Can y'all please explore third in a future episode? I'm so very confused. 😭 --June B.
