Paul Matt Sutter is an Astrophysicist, podcast host and science communicator.
The universe is big, but how big? Well... how does 8.8×10^26 m in diameter feel? Alienating? Good! That's why I am today accompanied by Sutter to put into perspective how bizarre the universe is.
In this conversation we cover the cosmic microwave background and how the big bang of the universe is derived from it and its impregnable heat death, conservation of energy, the existence of fundamental forces, the imprecision of english in expressing the laws of nature in contrast with mathematical formulas, the Fermi non-paradox and much more!
