    • Always a pleasure to listen to Max Tegmark.

    • SOO FUNNN

    • Excellent look at how the measurements of the cosmos were formulated

    • Aristarchus seems to have got an idea of the moon size, but 19th C parrallax firmed up his map needed updating.

      And so we see with Prof. Max`s course, the levels and maps of the universe keep being contemplated.

      Thanks to Prof. Tegmark for your course.

    • hmm, no proof that the universe has an end, does that also prove it has no beginning and therefor is infinite. More knowledge from WSU nice.

    • great
