The Beginning of Everything -- The Big Bang

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.

It's amazing how after 7 years, this voice is still the same and it feels like I've been learning from the same teacher for 7 years now.

[klutzy]

This guy manages to make me feel like life is pointless and that life has meaning at the same time.

[mineSTAR]

I just cannot wrap my head around what’s the “nothing” outside the universe is.

[santiagorojaspiaggio]

Love how the explanation begins with "let's explore what we know" and finishes with [beyond that] "we don't know and maybe we never will". That's science. It's not about taking for certain something it doesn't know. It's not about CREATING answers; it's about FINDING anwsers. And also temporarily accepting to say "i don't know".

Why do I keep watching these videos I’m having an existential crisis

[hysrae]

"we are the universe's way of experiencing itself"

damn. what a phrase

[NazzyDragon]

"We are the universe's way of experiencing itself."

That is so fucking deep right there.

[LM]

lokking back from 2023 you got huge improvements over the years. Always love your videos no matter what the content is

[ahmadumar]

I sometimes find it hard to believe that quality content like this is not hidden behind a pay wall.

Edit : to everyone saying you're paying for internet, there's something called public wifi too my man. Plus, considering internet costs is like saying "Uhh that soup kitchen is giving free food but I gotta pay for transport to get there"

[ComradeKemal]

I have no fear against death, i have the fear, that i will die without knowing how the universe works

[coolbeans]

Is it just me or do you get chills realizing you’re a human

[cheeseburgerrunner]

I LOVE this channel. I learn a lot, everything I watch is based on actual evidence and current theory by creators that appear to be dedicated to the truth. Not only that but are dedicated also to “what is known” and “what also could be”.

Very well researched, very well illustrated, very well communicated to us non-astrophysicists. The fact that all this is free on YouTube is incredible and I’m extremely thankful to the Kurzgesagt team.

*When you know you are going to be having an existential crisis but you click on the video anyway*

[Someone-sqim]

Mad respect to our science teacher for showing this in class today

[joaosal]

"We are the universe's way of experiencing itself" big quote man

[SourSoul]

"Since we ourselves are made of dead stars, we are not separate from the universe; we are part of it.
You could even say that we are the universe's way experiencing itself. So, let's keep on experiencing it, until there are no more questions to ask."

[ObamaShowChannel]

Sometimes I feel like our Universe is on loop. It started, died and it happened again, and again and again and again.. Am I the only one?

[danb_]

“Time becomes wibily wobbly” easy with the technical terms professor 😂

[DanielMartinez-zxpv]

"Let's keep exploring until there are no more questions to ask"
I don't know why but that sounds so uplifting for me.
