[00:00.00] 作词 : Favours![00:01.00] 作曲 : Favours![00:07.50]I want to ask[00:08.00]you all to consider for a second[00:10.67]the very simlpe fact[00:12.38]that,by far[00:13.40]most of what we know about the universe comes to us from light[00:18.44]we can stand on the earth an look up at the night sky[00:22.02]and see stars with our bare eyes[00:24.53]The sun burns our peripheral vision[00:26.83]we see light reflected off the moon[00:29.40]And in the time since Galileo pointed that rudimentary telescope at the celestrial bodies[00:36.24]the known universe has come to us through light[00:39.29]across vast eras in cosmic history[00:43.00]And with all of our modern telescopes[00:45.46]we could able to collect this stunning silent movie of the universe[00:50.27]this sort of series of snapshots that go all the way back to the big bang[00:56.06]And yet,the universe is not a silent movie[00:58.73]because the universe isn't silent[01:00.79]i'd like to convience you that the universe has a soundtrack[01:04.49]and that soundtrack is played on space itself[01:08.45]because space can wobble like a drum[01:12.10]it can ring out a kind of recording throughout the univesrse[01:16.85]of sone of the most dramatic events as the unfold[01:19.95]So in this ambition to capture songs from the universe[01:24.31]we turned our focus to black holes and the promise they have[01:28.79]because black hoels can bang on space -time like nallets on a drum,and have a very characteristic song[01:35.65]which i'd like to play for you----some of our predictious for what that song will be like[01:41.22][04:23.00]Now black holes are dark against a dark sky,we can't see them directly[04:29.00]they're not brought to us with light,at least not directly[04:31.72]We can see them indirectly because balck holes wreak havoc on their environment[04:35.80]they destroy stars around them,they churn debris in their surroundings[04:39.55]But they won't come to us directly through light[04:42.00]we might one day see a shadow, a black hole can cast on a very bright background.but we havent yet[04:48.92]And yet black holes may be heard , even if they're not seen[04:52.84]and that's because they bang on space-time like a drum[04:57.63]
