Welcome to Cosmology and its Fundamental Observations
This video combines chapters 1 and 2 of the videos in my new series of Cosmology. I'm going through Dr. Barbara Ryden's textbook "Introduction to Cosmology". If you follow along, you'll get a full upper-division undergraduate course in Cosmology. I used this textbook at William Paterson University.
This course will cover the current state of the science of Cosmology. To follow along, it'll be a good idea for you to ge to know your calculus. Here are the topics of this video:
Introductory Cosmology:
Chapter 01: What is Cosmology?
Chapter 02: Fundamental Observations
-- 01: What is Olbers' paradox?
-- 02: The Universe is Isotropic and Homogeneous
-- 03: Redshift is Proportional to Distance
-- 04:...

Where Does the Cosmic Microwave Background Come From?

    @jasonkendall Thanks for many very informative videos. I have to admit though that I don’t understand the logic behind astronomical parallax. That is not just from you, but from every explanation I have ever come across. eg: you take a measurement (a) and six months later you take measurement (b) and count the distance between the two as 2 au. You then half that to presumably give a baseline of 1 au and a right angle from the sun. What about the fact that the sun and earth are also moving through space at right angles to this assumed baseline at about 220,000m/s? Wouldn’t that put the distance travelled by the earth between (a) and (b) closer to 22 au? Where am I going wrong?

    I know I am coming in late here but I have been complaining in my own mind and once or twice to others since I was 15 years old that people were using the word “universe“ incorrectly. When I was 15 I asked my dad what the word “universe“ meant, and he said “all of everything,” and that has been the definition I used. I kept getting frustrated when other people were using the word universe when the truth they only meant the OBSERVABLE universe. I have never been willing to accept that the universe comprised only what we could observe. I’m glad to see that that that misunderstanding doesn’t reach the astrophysics community as a whole. And that the scientific community agrees with me that we are not seeing “everything” and disagrees with the idiot who told me there couldn’t be anything beyond what we could observe, because if there were we would be able to send it in some way. On which attitude I call shenanigans.

Oh, and by the way, this was done in 2018. We have since taken an actual picture of the SMBH in the center of our galaxy, or at least the accretion disk that proves Einstein's theory about black holes.

    It might be useful to keep in mind that anything in the universe less than about 500 million light years away hasn’t really changed much in the last 500 million years. Although we are seeing it as it appeared 500 million in years ago, it looks pretty much the same today. 500 million years is not all that much of a significant time period when it comes to something the size of a galaxy.

    • @JasonKendallAstronomer
      @JasonKendallAstronomer 15 дней назад

      actually, 500 million years as long enough for the Milky Way to rotate halfway around. also, the Milky Way Andromeda will collide in 5 billion years and that's 10% of it. Galactic collisions happen on the order of 1 billion years or so therefore 500 million is a short period of time.

    Any chance (like if you're bored) you could hit cosmic inflation? It's supposed to be like space inflated like a helium balloon faster than the speed of light... then it suddenly ceased, and now the universe has several horizons... like objects 11 billion years old are actually 40 billion lightyears distant, and there are horizons where objects currently emitting light that will be dimmed into blackness, but we can still observe what they had emitted billions of years ago, but won't be able to later... the horizons are all very confusing

    2:07 Questions about "1) Redshift": 1. All celestial bodies exibiting redshift, and thus moving away (from our perspective), are bodies situated milions/billions of lightyears away. Thus the redshift we see today happened millions/billions of years ago. Thus the observation we make is no longer up-to-date by millions of years. Are we sure they are still redshifting or are they blueshifting bouncing back, but that light has not traveled back reaching us yet? 2. If our perspective is not the center of where celestial objects are redshifting from, moving away from us, is it logical to expect the same redshift movement everywhere? That would be rather a coincidence.
