How did everything get started?

Has the universe a beginning or was it here since forever? Well, evidence suggests that there was indeed a starting point to this universe we are part of right now. But how can this be? How can something come from nothing? And what about time? We don’t have all the answers yet so let’s talk about what we know.

Also, we try to make this one not depressing. Tell us if we succeeded.

BY THE WAY. We have a website now. We’ll try to blog from time to time, show you guys how we make the videos and give more insight to our process. Also we sell stuff. We really don’t know where this whole kurzgesagt stuff leads us. But we are really thankful for all the attention and positive feedback and yeah, maybe we can make this our jobs — it would be pretty nice and we could do more content each month. But we’ll see. For now, thank you very much everybody for making this little adventure possible.

Thomas did an aweful good job again. 🙂

Next Video: April. (as soon as we can but we kind of have to make a living and visit college) Topic: Nuclear Energy (probably, if we finish the research in time — if not something else)

Short videos, explaining things. For example Evolution, the Universe, Time, the Stock Exchange or controversial topics like Fracking. Because we love science.

  1. I really don't like that we call it the big bang and the beginning of everything and that time and space have their beginning and that they really exist outside of human consciousness, people will think that time and space and physical matter are not just concepts of our brain … people will think that something really exploded when the truth is that it just stretched and eventually it will retract and stretch again and so it pulsates endlessly like it is in the past an infinite numbers of times. somehow all those names and descriptions of that event limit it to ordinary human understanding, and the universe is not like that, don't get me wrong observers are very important as we are conscious beings, I just want to say we have to understand that our concepts and notion of reality are not really true because we are limited very much.

  2. We humans are so weak and limited . The universe is all there is , more like thats as far as we can comprehend or understand . Even the universe is so complex we cant understand half of it. We have limitations as to how far we can go . Yet us weaklings think we are the ones who knows everything .

    I feel like its time to respect the unkown and admit we can never truly understand it.

  3. The universe may not be infinite, but it came from the infinite, and contains the infinite. What do scientists think is keeping all the atoms moving itelligently, forming different matter depending on their speed? The universe is alive, it is not a dead thing, because it contains the infinite consciousness. There is not one atom that does not contain it. That is why scientists today are dioscovering just what the so called space holds, infinite energy. Energy by definition, that cannot be created or destroyed. The universe did not come from nothing, but came from pure infinite consciousness. We try to fathom the infinite with our finite brain, and wonder why we get in a tangle. The infinite can only be experienced, not studied or mapped.

  4. Big bang fiction we factualize!…
    What exactly exploded? And where did the energy come from to fuel this cataclysmic explosion?….

  5. its always funny to see people saying "GOD IS THE ANSWER" in the comments. these are science-based videos. you really think people are gonna just say "Yup its all god, problem solved" ?

  6. My prediction: Nothing is real. Everything you know, everyone you know, everything you belive, it was never real. It's nothing. We are nothing. Think about my comment in bed tonight (well that is, if sleep is real)

  7. The big bang theory is a concept created by atheist to dispute God's existence. This theory explains nothing and this video is the same. This guy just making vague statements like "we are the universe's way of experiencing itself". What the hell doesn that even mean?

  8. There will never be an answer to okay what was before the explosion and okay what is an explosion which is why this entire theory is ridiculous

  9. How does everything come from nothing and why does the whole world buy that stuff? you need to have faith if you are talking about laws that existed outside of the observable natural laws,thats just faith you can't explain them, you just have faith that there is no God.

  10. What if its a paradoxical loop, what if only after the end of the universe does the beginning of the universe begin. What if both the beginning and the end already exists and its, like a video, is being played right now. Only then can be time travel possible.

  11. Absolutely nonsense!

    It is unbelievable that this ridiculousness is still floating around as 'truth'!

    Whimsical nonsense!

  12. I love how these religious comments are always like "Yo bro this is fake it must be God, nothing can not exist", I mean yo bro, if you can't prove the existence of nothing, how about you go prove the existence of your God

  13. wait so in some videos show it like things spreding and i think of them as mini like garlickys / the beginning of some a least so rhat can explaine why galaxys move and maybe also can be why we will collide with on another universe one day

    Ps

    I have so much more i want to say but not nat byyyyeeeeeeeee

  14. I have been sharing my Christian faith on these types of posts for decades now. Atheists will typically ask for evidence of God while claiming that matter, left alone for billions of years, changed itself into a discarded computer, a hula hoop, and a goldfish bowl. They have also fiercely denied that atheism is a religious belief, claiming they have 'one less God than I have.'

    Yet, do they? In all respect, most atheists believe in the big bang, going as far to call it 'science.' I worship Jesus Christ, Who loved the world so much, He was willing to be nailed to a Cross so that the thief on His right could be made right with God. Yet, many atheists look in awe at a sunset, overwhelmed that an explosion of nothing could have created such glory.

    Atheists are children of the Big Bang, the children of chaos. They bring chaos into the world where there is no right and wrong, just 'social contracts' where people agree to be nice because it makes for a better life. Right! Just as a disciple of Christ will produce love and order, so an atheist produces destruction, as explosions are always destructive. It is an empty life without purpose.

    That is why I write these posts. My father was an atheist and I was an ADD kid, having trouble paying attention. Now, as a grown Christian, I understand why. You only listen to things that are important and, in my circle of influence, nothing was important. For example, the lyrics of atheist songs are meaningless and, frankly, not worth listening to. Yet, you can know Christ. He is the way, the truth, and the life. Jesus Christ is the light of the world.

  15. I’m so like interested in this field of like space, time dimension and all that and anything that relates to space but I’m not sure what exactly I can go into as field wise and major wise
