Join Andrew Dunkley and Professor Fred Watson in this
thought-provoking Q&A episode of Space Nuts, where they
tackle intriguing questions from our listeners about dark matter,
flawed mathematics, black holes, and more.Episode Highlights:- Dark
Matter Debate: Kevin from Melbourne challenges the Timms on their
previous discussion about dark matter, questioning whether
SpaceTime itself could be the elusive substance.

- Flawed Mathematics: Simon wonders if the breakdown of
models at the extremes of the universe is due to our mathematics
being flawed. Could our system of mathematics be misaligned with
the real world?

- Black Holes and Spin: Isaac from Brisbane, aged nine, asks
how black holes spin if they take up no Space and why spin affects
Space.

- Gravity and Space: Isaac's dad inquires about how gravity
bends Space and thus bends light traveling past it.

- Energy in Space: Rusty from Donnybrook speculates about
harnessing the energy of Space and the potential for one g drives
to revolutionise Space travel.

- 00:00:00 - This is a q and a edition of Space Nuts

- 00:01:05 - Kevin from Melbourne asks whether spacetime itself
might be dark matter

mathematics being flawed

- 00:11:38 - Simon: I just finished watching a science fiction
series called dark matter

- 00:13:01 - Why do black holes spin if they take up no space

- 00:15:11 - Isaac's dad wants to know how gravity bends
space

- 00:16:56 - Fred and Andrew: Soon we'll harness the energy of
space itself

- 00:18:39 - If we could achieve one g drive, it would make travel
around the solar system pretty schmick
