Folks, here's the deal—how far does my voice reach? I'm calling everyone so we can do our official opening here on the main stage of our fourth day, a big Sunday here at the Space Day Experience. And of course, we can't start today without congratulating and thanking the women who are part of this event. Thank you to the women who came, who are here to support us. Thank you to the women who are working at our event—the women in security, the women in cleaning, our monitors. Thank you very much and congratulations on your day on behalf of the Space Today Experience, okay?

They make this whole event happen for free here at Arena BRB, at Mané Garrincha, in the heart of Brasília. And you can see we have several booths. There's the Free Play Arena for the console crowd, computers for you to play on, there's a simulator back there, a zero-gravity simulator, a travel simulator, a Formula 1 simulator, and we also have the Drone Arena. So if you like watching drones fly and do stunts in the air, feel free to check out our Drone Arena. We also have the eSports Competition Arena, so if you like a bit of LoL, Free Fire, Counter Strike, Mortal Kombat—any competitive game you like—we have competitions every day on our second stage. We also have booths from the Catholic University, so to learn about courses and the current state of technology in the job market, visit the Catholic University booth. We also have the Einstein Jr. booth, so if you want to know how chemical and physical reactions work and see experiments in practice, go to the Einstein Jr. booth—they serve visitors very well. We also have the Zero Impact booth, so if you have that old phone with a cracked screen or a computer that no longer works, take it to the Zero Impact booth where they collect these devices properly and safely.

If you don't want to bring it, or if you have a very large device, you can schedule today for them to pick it up from your home and dispose of it correctly. And here's the thing: on this stage at the Space Today Experience, we still have more today—now I want to hear you make some noise for the excitement, okay? Come on, today we will also have biologist Henrique!

Wow, the crowd likes Cossielo, huh? Who's been watching Cossielo for more than five years, Cossielo?
Desconhecido
3:34
Cossielo is old guard of the internet, isn't he? But the guy's badass and he'll be here on our stage.

On our stage, ex-Pânico, nowadays doing a podcast out there, roaming free. But here's the thing: to kick off our main stage here at the Space Today Experience 2026 edition, let's welcome with a lot of noise him, who runs the largest astronomy channel in Brazil. He's the face of our event—look, his face is right there, his face is passing by there, where? There, look back there, that guy right there.
Desconhecido
4:17
What a handsome face, huh? Let's welcome with a lot of noise the face of our event, Sérgio Sacani, ladies and gentlemen!
Sérgio Sacani
4:30
Hey! What's up, everyone, good afternoon, how are you?
Sérgio Sacani
4:34
Good.
Sérgio Sacani
4:36
Now yes, better, huh? Thank you all there, thank you for coming to the Space Day Experience. Very cool, you know? Thanks a lot. Congratulations to the women—March 8 as well.
Sérgio Sacani
4:48
Mothers, daughters, sisters, everyone who came to spend this Sunday with us.
Sérgio Sacani
4:54
Here's the thing, folks: I don't do any presentations, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
4:59
My thing here is to answer your questions.
Sérgio Sacani
5:02
Questions about anything, except...
Sérgio Sacani
5:06
love or financial matters.
Sérgio Sacani
5:09
I don't have a clue about either of those.
Sérgio Sacani
5:11
Yeah, but look...
Sérgio Sacani
5:13
You will raise your hand, then you'll come up close and he'll hold out the microphone for you to ask questions. So feel free—whoever has questions, bring them forward.
Sérgio Sacani
5:23
that bothers you.
Sérgio Sacani
5:27
Any?
Sérgio Sacani
5:29
So, Sacani, it seems
Desconhecido
5:30
that everyone—no one has a question,
Sérgio Sacani
5:31
right? Where are the questions? There are schools here, right? Whoever doesn't ask a question, I'll ask one, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
5:37
And if you don't answer, I'll send you to your teacher.
Sérgio Sacani
5:41
Go ahead.

5:41
Good afternoon, how are you? Good.
Sérgio Sacani

Sérgio Sacani
5:47
Thanks, thank you. Okay?
Desconhecido
5:49
I love your work. I'd like to know—on your last podcast you talked about the Iran war.
Desconhecido
5:54
about the atomic bomb, what would happen to us here in Brazil.
Desconhecido
5:59
If they detonated a bomb over there, what would happen to us here?
- Neutral
Sérgio Sacani
6:04
About: monitor and respond diplomatically to international conflicts
This war that's happening in Iran is a terrible thing—war is always terrible—it's going to affect us for sure, because we're talking about the region that produces the most oil on the planet.
Why it was classified this way · 78% confidence Talks about the war in Iran and its influences, without proposing concrete action.
Sérgio Sacani
6:16
So that's Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait and so on.
- Neutral
Sérgio Sacani
6:21
About: monitor and respond diplomatically to international conflicts
And Iran is using a strategy—two strategies. First, it bombed oil facilities; that's terrible.
Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence Explicit description of an attack on oil facilities by a state.
Sérgio Sacani
6:28
And now there's something that few people are talking about, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
6:32
but it could be decisive for the war now, which is this: that region of the Middle East doesn't have water, folks—there are no rivers there.
Sérgio Sacani
6:39
It's desert, you see?
Sérgio Sacani
6:42
They produce water through desalination of seawater.
- Neutral
Sérgio Sacani
6:46
About: protect desalination plants
It's the place on the planet with the most plants that remove salt from seawater and turn it into drinking water. Iran is now bombing all the desalination plants.
Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence Says that Iran is bombing desalination plants, threatening potable water.
- Neutral
Sérgio Sacani
6:58
About: protect desalination plants
And this can end the war quickly. Why? Because either they keep bombing and then they'll kill the population by thirst.
Why it was classified this way · 80% confidence Warns that attacks on plants can kill the population due to lack of water.
- Neutral
Sérgio Sacani
7:06
About: reduce exposure to international oil price fluctuations
because there's no other source of water there besides that. So this is something that's very... We're going to suffer consequences because of the price of oil. We have no idea for how long.
Why it was classified this way · 77% confidence States that the country will suffer consequences because of the oil price.
- Neutral
Sérgio Sacani
7:17
About: reduce exposure to international oil price fluctuations
I just left here—the barrel was hitting $93, you see?
Why it was classified this way · 75% confidence Reports the value of the barrel of oil, information with economic implications.
- Neutral
Sérgio Sacani
7:22
About: reduce exposure to international oil price fluctuations
That's very high; some are already estimating $140, $150 and we'll suffer because everyone here has to put gas in their car and the price at the pump is going to skyrocket.
Why it was classified this way · 82% confidence Predicts a rise in gasoline prices due to the increase in oil prices.
Sérgio Sacani
7:34
But that's it.
Sérgio Sacani
7:37
Next.
Sérgio Sacani
7:38
How do you make a rocket? How do you make a rocket? But if I knew, I'd be a billionaire like Elon Musk, right?
Sérgio Sacani
7:48
How do you make a rocket? Well, a rocket—later you'll see Einstein Jr. here, they make something similar to a rocket. But a rocket isn't that hard to make, okay? You need to put fuel in it.
Sérgio Sacani
7:59
The stuff you put in the car to make it run.
Sérgio Sacani
8:01
And you have to put a lot of fuel, because it has to get off the ground. That's not easy.
Sérgio Sacani
8:07
And then you have to find some material. Elon Musk—I'll use that question here—the Starship, which is the biggest rocket in the world, do you know what it's made of? Anyone have an idea?
Sérgio Sacani
8:18
It's made of steel.
Sérgio Sacani
8:20
Stainless steel.
Sérgio Sacani
8:22
You know the pressure cooker at your house?
Sérgio Sacani
8:24
It's exactly, almost the same thing he uses to make the Starship.
Sérgio Sacani
8:29
Stainless steel, which is one of the simplest materials there is.
Sérgio Sacani
8:33
Another curiosity about the Starship.
Sérgio Sacani
8:36
A rocket, to answer him there.
Sérgio Sacani
8:39
If you think about it, a rocket is a giant water tank.
Sérgio Sacani
8:44
Right?
Sérgio Sacani
8:45
because the rocket is basically all fuel.
Sérgio Sacani
8:48
And only its tip is what matters.
Sérgio Sacani
8:51
So it's a gigantic pipe.
Sérgio Sacani
8:53
Full of liquid inside.
Sérgio Sacani
8:55
Agree that it looks like a water tank?
Sérgio Sacani
8:58
It's so similar to a water tank that when Elon Musk started building the Starship, do you know which company he hired to build it?
Sérgio Sacani
9:06
a company that made water tanks in the United States.
Sérgio Sacani
9:09
so, if you think about it, it's not such a complicated business. It's just that it gets complicated, it keeps exploding, and for it to work you have to have several explosions, and there are few people in the world.
Sérgio Sacani
9:23
Or governments, right, who more or less have money forever, or private individuals — there are few people who have, first, that much money to go blowing the thing up like that until it works, and second, the courage, right, to do that and show it live to everyone.
Sérgio Sacani
9:38
Alright?
Sérgio Sacani
9:40
Next.
Desconhecido
9:45
Did you know that in Israel, the water — the salt water — they're using it to purify Israel's salt water; there's not much fresh water there anymore?
Sérgio Sacani
9:56
That's right, Israel has one of the most modern systems, right?
- Neutral
Sérgio Sacani
9:59
About: monitor and respond diplomatically to international conflicts
to remove the salt from the water and so on, but it's Israel — Israel is cautious — but why don't they attack Israel? Because Israel has a large anti-aircraft battery and destroys their missiles; they look to attack other countries that are weak in that, but that's exactly it, they know about that.
Why it was classified this way · 78% confidence Explains why actors do not attack Israel due to air-defense capability.
Desconhecido
10:18
So, Sérgio, good afternoon.
Desconhecido
10:19
I'm a big fan of your work, first to say, and I wanted to ask you what you think is at the bottom of a black hole, at the center, in that case, your opinion.
Sérgio Sacani
10:31
Man, so let's go, right? The black hole...
Sérgio Sacani
10:35
First, how does a black hole form? It's a star much more massive than the Sun, more than eight times the mass of the Sun.
Sérgio Sacani
10:42
It first explodes in a supernova.
Sérgio Sacani
10:44
And then the core that's left over collapses and becomes a black hole.
Sérgio Sacani
10:49
So, yeah...
Sérgio Sacani
10:50
What a black hole has, mathematically speaking, is something we call a singularity.
Sérgio Sacani
10:56
Now, what's in there, we will probably never know.
Sérgio Sacani
11:00
Why?
Sérgio Sacani
11:00
Even if we send a probe in there to study a black hole, its image or its data doesn't come out of there.
Sérgio Sacani
11:08
Got it? That's terrible in physics.
Sérgio Sacani
11:11
Because physics says that things have to be preserved.
Sérgio Sacani
11:14
But in a black hole we lose information.
Sérgio Sacani
11:17
That's called the information paradox.
Sérgio Sacani
11:20
Got it?
Sérgio Sacani
11:20
And how are we going to know what's there? We don't. It could be anything, even the library from Interstellar. Did anyone watch Interstellar?
Sérgio Sacani
11:29
Interstellar, who saw it? Just you? No, you have to see it.
Sérgio Sacani
11:33
Interstellar imagines what would be inside a black hole — there the Tesseract and all that.
Sérgio Sacani
11:39
Einstein had a very interesting phrase about Black Holes.
Sérgio Sacani
11:44
He said the following, let's see if the folks here are good at math, huh?
Sérgio Sacani
11:48
How much is, folks, any number, 10 for example?
Sérgio Sacani
11:53
How much is it?
Sérgio Sacani
11:54
Pay attention to the question, huh?
Sérgio Sacani
11:56
What's 10 divided by zero?
Sérgio Sacani
11:59
No.
Sérgio Sacani
12:01
10 divided by zero. Who has the answer?
Sérgio Sacani
12:06
Bye, bye.
Sérgio Sacani
12:07
10 divided by zero. You learned that math, didn't you?
Sérgio Sacani
12:11
10, how much is any number divided by zero?
Sérgio Sacani
12:18
No.
Sérgio Sacani
12:19
So I'm going to, huh, I'm going to — I'm going to open a math channel, huh.
Sérgio Sacani
12:24
Any number divided by zero, we learn in school, is a mathematical indeterminacy.
Sérgio Sacani
12:29
There's no way I can divide anything by zero.
Sérgio Sacani
12:32
Imagine, I have ten little balls here, ten little things here from Einstein Júnior, and I have zero people.
Sérgio Sacani
12:38
How do I divide 10 by 0?
Sérgio Sacani
12:40
It's an indeterminacy. Then when you advance a bit in math, you do calculus — the differential and integral calculus invented by Isaac Newton — it has the answer. And that's what happens in a black hole. What happens in a black hole? I take a very large mass, I compress it into a space.
Sérgio Sacani
12:58
so small, into such a small volume, that, pay attention, the volume tends to zero.
Sérgio Sacani
13:06
It's not zero, it tends to be zero, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
13:09
And then I take something, divide it by something that tends to zero, and via calculus we prove that the answer tends to infinity.
Sérgio Sacani
13:18
So, the black hole, Einstein said the following phrase.
Sérgio Sacani
13:23
A Black Hole is where God made the division by zero.
Sérgio Sacani
13:26
because division by zero doesn't exist in mathematics, but inside the black hole it does.
Sérgio Sacani
13:31
Alright?
Sérgio Sacani
13:32
Next!
Desconhecido
13:37
So, Sérgio, I'm a big fan of your work. Thanks. I wanted to ask if there's any prediction of when humans will go to Mars.
Sérgio Sacani
13:45
Man, let's go, right? Getting to Mars is very difficult for us, even more so right now, at the moment, right? Because the one who was leading all the human trips to Mars was Elon Musk.
Sérgio Sacani
13:55
But now, because of all the problems that happened over in the United States, about going to the Moon and such, I don't know what, he has already changed his plan.
Sérgio Sacani
14:01
So, he forgot Mars and is now going to the Moon.
Sérgio Sacani
14:04
He gave an interview a short while ago and said it should be around 2050, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
14:10
So, humans will only go to Mars around 2050.
Sérgio Sacani
14:14
Why is that?
Sérgio Sacani
14:15
First because it's very difficult.
Sérgio Sacani
14:17
Second, because Mars might not have as many resources to be exploited as the Moon has.
Sérgio Sacani
14:23
The Moon has water, the Moon has rare earths, the Moon has L3, all of that is economically viable.
Sérgio Sacani
14:29
Mars not so much.
Sérgio Sacani
14:30
So that's why Elon Musk himself changed [his plans]. But a date people have been considering currently is 2050, more or less.
Sérgio Sacani
14:38
Alright?
Desconhecido
14:45
Joking around, okay? Well, in philosophy we learn the principle of causality, right? That every cause precedes an effect, every effect a cause.
Desconhecido
14:53
And, having said that, I can affirm...
Desconhecido
14:56
that before matter I need something that was immaterial, and before time something that was timeless.
Desconhecido
15:03
So, what do you think that immaterial and timeless thing was that caused matter in the Big Bang?
Sérgio Sacani
15:10
So let's go, right? First thing, there are several errors in your statement from the point of view of physics, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
15:17
The Big Bang isn't that, okay, folks?
Sérgio Sacani
15:20
Forget about someone happy.
Sérgio Sacani
15:23
which I don't know who it was.
Sérgio Sacani
15:24
There are people who say unfortunate phrases around the world. The first of them is to say 'fabric of space-time'. There's no fabric at all.
Sérgio Sacani
15:34
Forget that, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
15:37
The Big Bang isn't that, okay? The Big Bang isn't that. The Big Bang is a model, one of several that we have.
Sérgio Sacani
15:43
that explains the evolution of the universe.
Sérgio Sacani
15:47
From a certain point. That's the Big Bang. Oh, does the Big Bang speak about the beginning of the universe? No, no, you understand?
Sérgio Sacani
15:54
But some unfortunate person went there and said like, no, because the Big Bang shows how the universe was born. The Big Bang has nothing to do with that, okay? The Big Bang shows how the universe evolved from a certain state, which we call, which was a state of matter. Actually, it wasn't matter, right? We say it was a plasma.
Sérgio Sacani
16:15
Plasma, for those who don't know, is the fourth state of matter. We have solid, liquid and gas.
Sérgio Sacani
16:20
When you heat the gas to absurd temperatures.
Sérgio Sacani
16:23
because it becomes a plasma.
Sérgio Sacani
16:24
At the very beginning of the universe, what should have been there, we don't know, we probably will never know either, but what was there was a plasma of certain subatomic particles.
Sérgio Sacani
16:37
Some subatomic particles there, among them gluon, which is such a particle, and quark.
Sérgio Sacani
16:44
So what we had was a quark-gluon plasma, as we call it, at the beginning of the universe.
Sérgio Sacani
16:49
Quantum perturbations began to occur, these are things that happen normally, and from those quantum perturbations the universe began to evolve.
Sérgio Sacani
16:59
And how do we explain that evolution? The Big Bang is one of the alternatives. And there are several others. For example, one of them that always...
Sérgio Sacani
17:09
Physics explains what the first thing that existed was.
Sérgio Sacani
17:13
Physics explains what the first thing that existed was, man.
Sérgio Sacani
17:17
It's more or less along the lines of what he said, right?
Sérgio Sacani
17:19
So, in physics, probably no one will know.
Sérgio Sacani
17:23
Exactly, there are some things we'll never know for sure.
Sérgio Sacani
17:28
Unless you believe in a certain thing. You believe in something.
Sérgio Sacani
17:32
Knowing is another thing, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
17:35
For example, how the universe was born, we'll probably never know.
Sérgio Sacani
17:38
Because there are moments from the early universe that are difficult for us to access. We'd have to have equipment that might cost a fortune, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
17:48
And the same goes for life, for example, how life arose?
Sérgio Sacani
17:52
There are several hypotheses that deal with the origin of life.
Sérgio Sacani
17:56
We don't know which one it is, we probably will also never know.
Sérgio Sacani
18:00
So, like, is the goal of physics to explain how the very first thing came about?
Sérgio Sacani
18:06
Or is it that humans have that curiosity? I understand that humans have that curiosity.
Sérgio Sacani
18:10
Theoretical physicists try to explain.
Sérgio Sacani
18:13
That's what I'm talking about here right now, you understand?
Sérgio Sacani
18:15
That there was, way back at the beginning, a state — things had a state — which was that plasma with subatomic particles, you understand? And from there things began to evolve.
Sérgio Sacani
18:28
How that happened — there are various ideas about it.
Sérgio Sacani
18:31
Okay?
Sérgio Sacani
18:32
Next.
Sérgio Sacani
18:36
Where's the microphone?
Desconhecido
18:46
Good afternoon, I wanted to ask you what you have to say about celestial bodies that we know have a mass there, a frequency, but you can't see them yet; they're not visible.
Sérgio Sacani
18:57
There's one there about 15 times the mass of Jupiter; it's large.
Sérgio Sacani
19:01
But we can't see it because it doesn't even emit light.
Sérgio Sacani
19:05
That's why we talk about a brown dwarf; it doesn't even reflect light.
Sérgio Sacani
19:08
But how do we know it's there? There are studies done in the infrared, which is a certain frequency of the spectrum, that allow us to detect that object.
Sérgio Sacani
19:17
I don't know if that's it.
Sérgio Sacani
19:19
Now, if that's not it, I don't know. What we know about things we can't see but see the effect of is dark matter, for example. It has a gravitational effect, but we can't detect that matter.
Sérgio Sacani
19:30
But I didn't see it. What's the name of the documentary?
Sérgio Sacani
19:35
Bring it over for her to talk about it, so I can look that up — I found it interesting.
Desconhecido
19:38
It's the Cosmos series, by Carl Sagan and... Oh, okay,
Sérgio Sacani
19:43
so he talks about a Brown Dwarf; it's the Brown Dwarf he's talking about.
Sérgio Sacani
19:46
All right.
Sérgio Sacani
19:48
There, look, show it there.

About: prioritize women in scientific events
Let's go — we're going to give priority to women, okay? Because today, obviously, is International Women's Day.
Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence Says explicitly 'vamos privilegiar as mulheres' as an action at the event.
Desconhecido
19:55
All right, Sancani? Good.
Desconhecido
19:58
In the time of the 3 e Atlas, we're still in the 3 e Atlas idea; I remember I saw some of your videos and Schwarza's, which I think are measured — I like them too.
Desconhecido
20:12
But you had an extremely scientific and rational stance about it, so much so that you created the Huawei worldwide. It's something alien, isn't it?
Desconhecido
20:21
I wanted to know your point of view, not regarding the 3 e Atlas, but about the discussion it brought to the world with its passage.
Desconhecido
20:31
What do you think about intelligent life beyond Earth, in the world, in the universe?
Desconhecido
20:36
The 3 e Atlas are being discussed, I wanted to know your point of view. I know this is rational, but I wanted to know your point of view on that, please.
Sérgio Sacani
20:43
Great. It's good — the question always comes up, I was waiting for it to appear.
Sérgio Sacani
20:48
Since we have a lot of people here today, it'll be really good for me to do my survey.
Sérgio Sacani
20:53
It's an election year — you'll be interviewed a lot out on the street.
Sérgio Sacani
20:56
So you'll start by answering my survey, which is only three questions.
Sérgio Sacani
21:00
Pay attention, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
21:02
First.
Sérgio Sacani
21:03
Here it is.

It's just a matter of belief, okay, folks? It's not a discussion. Don't argue with your head, okay? Let's go.
Sérgio Sacani
21:11
Who believes that any kind of life exists?
Sérgio Sacani
21:16
In the universe — microorganism, bacteria, a cell, an amoeba, anything — who believes it exists?
Sérgio Sacani
21:25
Great, practically everyone.
Sérgio Sacani
21:27
Let's go, second question.
Sérgio Sacani
21:29
Who believes intelligent life exists in the universe?
Sérgio Sacani
21:33
Beings similar to us, more or less.
Sérgio Sacani
21:37
Whoa, that's already dropped a lot.
Sérgio Sacani
21:39
And the third and final: who believes that these beings...
Sérgio Sacani
21:43
visit us or are among us.
Sérgio Sacani
21:50
You see? That's more or less always the trend.
Sérgio Sacani
21:55
The 13 Atos — first, it didn't pass, okay? It's still there. It's because it lost the hype, right?
Sérgio Sacani
22:01
It lost the hype; people don't pay attention to it anymore. But it's going to pass near Jupiter on March 16. We're waiting for that, because there's a probe there that should take really cool images of it.
Sérgio Sacani
22:11
What did it end up becoming? A comet — like any comet we have here in the Solar System, as I've said since day one, you understand? I've said that since day one. Nothing else.
Sérgio Sacani
22:22
There's a line — let's see if folks can help me here. Do you know Thanos?
Sérgio Sacani
22:28
Thanos from Marvel.
Sérgio Sacani
22:29
Thanos has a line that...
Sérgio Sacani
22:31
What does that show us? Thanos says the following: Reality
Sérgio Sacani
22:37
Is surprisingly — how does he say it?
Sérgio Sacani
22:41
Surprisingly, it's...
Sérgio Sacani
22:44
Thanos says it like this: Reality...
Sérgio Sacani
22:46
Is surprisingly disappointing.
Sérgio Sacani
22:50
I wanted it to be a ship, to land, a being to walk among us here, but reality isn't like that, you understand?
Sérgio Sacani
22:56
Reality is much more disappointing than we think.
Sérgio Sacani
23:00
What I believe, huh? If I had to raise my hand, I don't believe there's intelligent life elsewhere in the universe.
Sérgio Sacani
23:08
Okay? I don't believe it. Ah, Sérgio, but such-and-such, such-and-such.
Sérgio Sacani
23:12
You could refute me in a minute — even using mathematics, there's a thing called the law of large numbers.
Sérgio Sacani
23:18
Which even supports that, however, the conditions for life, for intelligent life to arise and such, are very restrictive things that happened here, and for me, I just believe, okay folks, it's not a discussion, nor philosophical or anything deep, it's simply that life is mere chance, and reality is disappointing; as we live it here, it would be cool, right?
Sérgio Sacani
23:41
A ship landing, man, I'd love that.
Sérgio Sacani
23:43
An alien landing and walking around, man, that would be sensational. But it's not, you know? It's not.
Sérgio Sacani
23:48
Three iapras, comet, simple.
Sérgio Sacani
23:51
People used to say, with me saying it's a textbook comet, right?
Sérgio Sacani
23:54
Actually, it's not a textbook comet. It's a book-cover comet.
Sérgio Sacani
23:58
Because it's so normal, so normal, that it could be put on the cover of a book.
Sérgio Sacani
24:04
Ah, bring it there, what's that over there?
Sérgio Sacani
24:07
No, it's not like that.
Desconhecido
24:09
But I think it's not a normal comet; there's the Harvard one, I forgot the name, which became quite famous for the interviews and for the considerations he made — it had 10 anomalies that completely deviated; those anomalies can't be labeled as a normal comet.
Sérgio Sacani
24:24
No, so let's go.
Sérgio Sacani
24:26
You're from here in Brasília, it's near Goiânia, right?
Sérgio Sacani
24:30
Here in Brasília. You live here, right?
Sérgio Sacani
24:32
Good. Here, Goiânia — everyone knows it, right?
Sérgio Sacani
24:36
There's a very famous dish in Goiânia, which is rice with pequi. Who's eaten it?
Sérgio Sacani
24:41
Rice with pequi.
Sérgio Sacani
24:42
Is that rice or not?
Sérgio Sacani
24:45
Huh?
Sérgio Sacani
24:46
There you go.
Sérgio Sacani
24:47
Your question is answered.
Sérgio Sacani
24:49
The comet is as follows: since it came from another place that's not the solar system,
Sérgio Sacani
24:55
of course it's going to have those anomalies. The Vila Oébia — I spoke with Vila Oébia live, you understand?
Sérgio Sacani
25:01
Of course there will be chemical elements there that aren't in the solar system. So, great.
Sérgio Sacani
25:07
No, its behavior has nothing wrong, not at all, not at all — so much so that Vila Oebre backtracked, you see?
Sérgio Sacani
25:12
He backtracked on all of that.
Sérgio Sacani
25:13
Actually, of all the anomalies he mentioned, the only real one is the chemical composition.
Sérgio Sacani
25:19
Anti-tail. Every comet has an anti-tail. All of them. I've even photographed a comet with an anti-tail. I have a photo of a comet with an anti-tail.
Sérgio Sacani
25:27
And I showed it, and I showed my photo live, you understand?
Sérgio Sacani
25:30
So, there's nothing. It's just that people want it to be.
Sérgio Sacani
25:33
But always remember Thanos's line.
Sérgio Sacani
25:38
Say it.
Sérgio Sacani

There you go.
Sérgio Sacani
25:40
Reality is disappointing.

25:44
I want an explanation of the first life that arose on Earth. It's a very basic question. So,
Sérgio Sacani
25:50
that's what I was explaining to everyone here earlier, I don't know if you saw, right?
Sérgio Sacani
25:53
And...
Sérgio Sacani
25:55
There are questions, right, that maybe... First, folks, let me tell you something here.
Sérgio Sacani
26:00
Many people think it's science.
Sérgio Sacani
26:02
that entity.
Sérgio Sacani
26:05
it would have an answer for everything — first of all, it doesn't, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
26:08
In fact, the role of science is to question.
Sérgio Sacani
26:11
We were talking about 3 and Atlas here; it's a very cool thing, because what's the role of science?
Sérgio Sacani
26:16
A new object shows up here, let's question it.
Sérgio Sacani
26:20
Alright?
Sérgio Sacani
26:21
survival.
Sérgio Sacani
26:22
We'll probably never know.
Sérgio Sacani
26:25
how life actually arose on Earth.
Sérgio Sacani
26:28
What we do today are experiments.
Sérgio Sacani
26:33
to try to reproduce.
Sérgio Sacani
26:36
the environment that Earth had.
Sérgio Sacani
26:39
about 3.2 to 3.3 billion years ago.
Sérgio Sacani
26:44
which is probably when the first living cell emerged.
Sérgio Sacani
26:48
But how it arose, we won't have an exact answer.
Sérgio Sacani
26:52
They already did an experiment that consisted of applying an electric discharge to water with some chemical elements. That produced the so-called amino acid.
Sérgio Sacani
27:02
But after that, nothing else formed.
Sérgio Sacani
27:04
So that theory, that hypothesis ended up falling apart.
Sérgio Sacani
27:08
Today, science...
Sérgio Sacani
27:10
explains the formation of life through fumaroles.
Sérgio Sacani
27:14
which are hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor.
Sérgio Sacani
27:18
There you have the energy, there you have the necessary chemical elements, and the necessary condition, which is water — that solvent we have.
Sérgio Sacani
27:27
But today this is the best explanation; that doesn't mean this is the explanation.
Sérgio Sacani
27:32
Understand?
Sérgio Sacani
27:33
But...
Sérgio Sacani
27:34
It may be that in a year, two years, six months, another explanation better than this will emerge and we'll follow that line. But today, perhaps the first life on Earth arose under these conditions. We managed to reproduce this in the lab, it worked very well, and we can go to the vents today and observe this process as well.

Hi, I'd like to know your opinion about string theory.
Sérgio Sacani
28:13
Great question, huh? So let's go.
Sérgio Sacani
28:17
String theory. First, what is string theory, for those who've never heard of it?
Sérgio Sacani
28:23
We have four forces of nature, okay?
Sérgio Sacani
28:27
gravity, the electromagnetic force, the strong nuclear force, and the weak nuclear force.
Sérgio Sacani
28:33
They all have particles.
Sérgio Sacani
28:35
Except one.
Sérgio Sacani
28:36
which is gravity.
Sérgio Sacani
28:38
Who here saw me arguing with Monarca about the Graviton?
Sérgio Sacani
28:41
Did anyone see that discussion?
Sérgio Sacani
28:43
So...
Sérgio Sacani
28:44
The graviton would be that hypothetical particle of gravity. We've never been able to find it or anything.
Sérgio Sacani
28:50
And that would unify...
Sérgio Sacani
28:53
Relativity, which deals with the huge things in the universe — black holes, galaxies — relativity handles that.
Sérgio Sacani
29:00
And quantum physics.
Sérgio Sacani
29:02
which deals with the subatomic world.
Sérgio Sacani
29:05
How do you unite them? We don't know.
Sérgio Sacani
29:08
Time passed, some physicists developed the so-called string theory.
Sérgio Sacani
29:12
What does string theory tell us? Instead of a particle being a point-like thing...
Sérgio Sacani
29:18
it would have a dimension, it would be, it would be a little string, just like a guitar string.
Sérgio Sacani
29:25
And then we pluck the guitar string in a certain way, we get the note C.
Sérgio Sacani
29:29
Pluck it another way, D, E, right?
Sérgio Sacani
29:32
So, depending on the vibration of that string, it would generate the forces.
Sérgio Sacani
29:37
and at one of those frequencies it would generate gravity.
Sérgio Sacani
29:41
Awesome.
Sérgio Sacani
29:43
But...
Sérgio Sacani
29:44
there's a very important thing I need to tell you.
Sérgio Sacani
29:47
In physics.
Sérgio Sacani
29:48
we have two very important strands of things that have to happen.
Sérgio Sacani
29:52
One of them is theory. What is theory?
Sérgio Sacani
29:56
In short, paper accepts everything.
Sérgio Sacani
29:59
Anything, you sit here, logically, not violating basic rules, paper accepts everything. So, string theory was described beautifully. There are books and more books.
Sérgio Sacani
30:10
But in physics, everything described in theory has to be observed.
Sérgio Sacani
30:15
There has to be the experiment, and that's where string theory got into trouble.
Sérgio Sacani
30:20
To this day, since string theory emerged, we haven't been able to perform any experiment that proves any part of it.
Sérgio Sacani
30:29
So much so that today...
Sérgio Sacani
30:31
there is a very large strand of physicists, a large number of physicists, who say that string theory is dead.
Sérgio Sacani
30:38
And then there's the great Marcelo Glazer — do you know Marcelo Glazer?
Sérgio Sacani
30:42
Marcelo Greiser, Brazilian physicist, sensational, my friend. He worked for 30 years on string theory.
Sérgio Sacani
30:48
on something that could be dead, may not exist, may be worth nothing.
Sérgio Sacani
30:52
Imagine working 30 years of your life.
Sérgio Sacani
30:56
on something that is worth nothing. He gave an interview to Pedro Bial just now; I advise everyone afterward, go on YouTube, search Marcelo Gleiser and Pedro Bial, and he talks about that life experience of his, because it's an amazing thing.
Sérgio Sacani
31:08
So, man, string theory today has no experimental confirmation.
Sérgio Sacani
31:15
So you'll say, 'do you believe in string theory?'
Sérgio Sacani
31:18
Theoretically, yes.
Sérgio Sacani
31:19
What's missing is the experiment to prove it.
Sérgio Sacani
31:22
Bye.
Sérgio Sacani

What was the physics behind enabling, during the Apollo 11 mission, a call from the Moon to planet Earth?
Sérgio Sacani
32:41
The physics is as follows: it's called communication via radio waves.
Sérgio Sacani
32:46
So the call was made to a large antenna.
Sérgio Sacani
32:50
And that antenna made the connection here on Earth.
Sérgio Sacani
32:53
So, the missions that came before Apollo 11 — Apollo 8, Apollo 9, Apollo 10 — they tested two very important things.
Sérgio Sacani
33:03
First, communication via radio waves. Would it work? It did.
Sérgio Sacani
33:08
The second thing that few people know: the cameras that went on the Apollo mission were television cameras.
Sérgio Sacani
33:15
But that had to be tested.
Sérgio Sacani
33:17
It's just that a lot of people think.
Sérgio Sacani
33:19
A lot of people — I'm not saying I'm talking about you — but many people think the NASA guys were asleep one day.
Sérgio Sacani
33:25
Then they woke up.
Sérgio Sacani
33:27
let's go to the Moon. It didn't happen like that, folks.
Sérgio Sacani
33:30
There were several missions before that tested many components, equipment — antennas were tested, several types of antenna, cameras were tested — until they arrived at that configuration. So communication was done by radio waves, through a large antenna that was in Australia, and from there communication was made with the rest, and the cameras were television cameras.
Sérgio Sacani
33:52
The Apollo 8 mission took television cameras to be tested. And if they didn't work? They had a plan B, plan C and so on. Okay?

The multiverse is the same thing as string theory.
Sérgio Sacani
34:28
Actually, the multiverse originates from string theory, okay? It originates from string theory. You, at your age, must watch a lot of Marvel.

Sérgio Sacani

Sérgio Sacani
34:53
Again.
Sérgio Sacani
34:54
The multiverse theory — perfect, it's beautiful.
Sérgio Sacani
34:58
How would a parallel universe, as we call it, be born?
Sérgio Sacani
35:02
Everyone here has played with soap bubbles, right?
Sérgio Sacani
35:05
Sometimes when you blow a soap bubble and it's growing, doesn't another little bubble appear beside it, stuck to it?
Sérgio Sacani
35:13
That would be a very simplistic view, but to help us understand what a multiverse would be.
Sérgio Sacani
35:18
So, theoretically it exists, we've never observed it.
Sérgio Sacani
35:22
There are some physicists who say that if we look in a certain place, we might see some clue, but so far it hasn't been proven. And aliens, right?
Sérgio Sacani
35:32
I don't believe in aliens. Do you believe?
