    OUTLINE BY RAMALAKSHMI VV:

    0:00 Countdown- Intro Music
    1:15 Introduction - Hello Everybody
    3:54 Why does inflation (10^-36seconds after big bang) have a high uncertainty? Even after CMBR imaging?..
    15:01 What is cosmic dawn and epoch of reionization in cosmology?
    22:50 Under Brane cosmology, how much does sir think the ekpyrotic universe makes sense? Is it supported by Mathematics?
    35:14 How does Pulsar Timing Array, someone says he has read a paper about confirmation of gravitational wave background existing in fabric of space..
    42:49 What is oscillating in a matter wave?..
    49:14 Why is the primary focus on reducing CO2 when there are other potent greenhouse gases like methane, nitrogen oxides? How are we addressing the e waste generated from solar technology?..
    56:50 Are there any non human living organism that exhibit suicidal tendencies or engage in self destructive behaviour leading to their own death?
    1:02:40 How would the world change if OpenAI or google created AGI today, making them more powerful than governments? What would be the impact on industries, the economy, and society?
    1:06:34 Does sir think we can see AI like Skynet which can be threat to us in few years from now as the advancements are very rapid? Dangers of AI....
    1:12:02 Why oceans deep inside are cold but as we deeper in land it becomes hot?
    1:16:27 As sir said jet engine development is complicated to develop jet blades from single crystal, if we have rocket tech in isro, high temperature resistant materials are used in rockets, why can we use that in jet engine?
    1:22:04 Hypothetically, if we put the entire universe into a large container, what would be outside the container?...
    1:24:38 What is anti-gravity? Can it some how exist?
    1:25:37 How space looks like, does it look exactly as images released by NASA or will it look different if we see a nebula with a naked eye
    1:29:49 What does sir think about possibility of antimatter propulsion for future space travel, and what kind of restrictions does it currently face?
    1:31:30 What are god particle and why are they so important to understand
    1:33:47 Thoughts on Terrance howard
    1:35:12 Someone asks sir to rate khan academy as an educational platform
    1:35:36 Do we have any gravitational anomalies discovered on earth just like in movie interstellar?
    1:36:40 Are we made of particles or waves
    1:37:41 Can sir structure of photon
    1:39:17 If light has no mass then how blackholes gravity affects it??
    1:39:59 Have sir watched big bang theory
    1:40:15 Why space agencies pursuing a nuclear powered spacecraft?
    1:40:55 Have sir figured out new types of battery tech?
    1:41:59 Microplastics un avoidable?
    1:42:52 How does gravity reacts when we reach absolute zero
    1:43:36 Sir's thoughts on Vasuki indicus
    1:44:30 Someone says Microplastics are everywhere, bottom of ocean, organs, ....
    1:45:31 What is we could transfer our consciousness into an ai model? What makes us human, is it our consciousness or our body
    1:48:13 Can humans ever see UV rays
    1:48:42 Can neutron stars have habitable planets?
    1:50:15 Conclusion- Thanks Everybody

    OUTLINE:
    0:00 Countdown- Intro Music
    1:02 Introduction- Hi Everybody
    3:24 In some books about Heisenberg uncertainity principle its give as Δx.Δp≥ℏ and others as Δx.p≥ℏ/2, what's the difference?
    7:52 About fermi paradox
    15:58 When will we actually start mining resources from other planets or asteroids effectively?
    20:51 Olber's Paradox, how does the information paradox challenge our understanding of black holes and quantum mechanics?How do we reconcile that time to stop at the center of the black hole?
    31:58 How did the alignment between Saturn and Jupiter impact Neptune's orbit, causing the late heavy bombardment event?
    38:22 What is true look of Jupiter if it looks different from different telescopes? Are they illusions
    42:55 What is quantum computing and can it be used to encode genes of an unborn baby?
    50:40 What is singularity? How long will it take us reach the singularity after we reach AGI?
    55:34 What is Chaos theory? How applicable is it scientifically and in everyday life?
    1:02:41 How does a butterfly retain its memory as a caterpillar even after getting most of itself digested apart from few cells? Can this be researched and used to transfer memory in humans?
    1:07:04 What is string theory?
    1:13:08 As there was no radiation prior to big bang, does sir think it is impossible for us to know conclusively what caused the big bang?
    1:16:28 What is the difference between a supermassive blackhole at the center of a galaxy and active galactic nuclei?
    1:20:40 What are sir's thoughts on life once existing on Mars?...
    1:24:38 Since Mars lack a magnetosphere will it ever be possible to terraform it into planet like Earth?...
    1:30:30 Where does sir see neuralink trials going? Could this be threat to humans? Could it affect freedom of our thoughts?
    1:32:56 What does sir think about open ai's and google's ai models and should we be worried?
    1:35:37 Thoughts on Oumuamua- a comet or extraterrestrial tech?
    1:39:06 Why do volcanoes occur in islands? Do volcanoes form in main lands also?
    1:43:28 What does the word "dust cloud" mean which forms our solar system
    1:46:06 Are the chances of intelligent life existing on a planet similar to Earth just a chance of probability?...
    1:49:27 How do we capture nebulas, black holes, which spectral waves do we capture or how does this work?
    1:52:55 Can quantum mechanics explain consciousness?
    1:56:31 What is bootstrap paradox?
    1:59:39 Is time travel possible using wormholes?
    2:02:54 Is intelligence a mere product of chemical reactions or is it present at the beginning of everything?
    2:05:01 If quarks, electrons, neutrinos, etc are elementary then why do they split up in other nuclear reactions like in Beta decay...?
    2:08:02 Why desalination of ocean water is so expensive and how it works?
    2:09:21 Multiverse existence?
    2:10:25 Can tech and robotics solve the TFR...?
    2:12:14 Will sir make physics course in physics?
    2:12:30 If time slows down inside black hole then will the object that fell into black hole survive, due to release of radiation?
    2:13:30 Conclusion- Thanks Everybody
