Why Do We Exist with Hakeem Oluseyi
Summary
Cosmologist Hakim Uleisha joins StarTalk to discuss his new book, "Why Do We Exist," which maps nine realms of the universe to explain human existence. The conversation covers the physics of plasma, the evidence for the multiverse via super-horizon fluctuations, and Uleisha’s "SWAG" (Scientific Wild Ass Guess) approach to science. They also explore the origins of vertebrates, the liquid metal core of Earth, and whether supermassive black holes formed before their host galaxies.
