1:21-17:17 Can you explain eclipse prediction like Im in middle school? High school? College?
17:31-20:17 Is it possible to view an Eclipse from space? Do astronauts on the space station see anything during eclipses?
20:22-24:10 Related to the eclipse, it is interesting that the Moon always shows the same side to Earth. Why is that? (Ive heard about commensurate frequencies, but Im not sure about the origin of this fact.)
24:11-28:53 How are orbits in the solar system so stable over time?
28:58-31:54 I wonder if it would have any effect if the Moon did rotate with respect to the Earth?
31:59-34:07 If the Moon were spinning fast, it would probably still have a liquid core, I think?
34:15-41:49 If the Moon were to be broken apart, leading to a debris field impacting Earth, what models exist to predict the scale of these impacts and their potential effects on global climate, ecosystems and people?
42:01-43:01 Is predicting eclipses harder than predicting the motions of planets or comets?
43:08-1:05:58 Can LLMs do math?
1:06:02-1:07:14 When will the AIs start colonizing space?
1:07:27-1:11:28 When we have large models of all sorts of other stuff, will LLMs primary role not actually be as the interpreters between humans and our tools?
1:11:29-1:12:48 Cant we look into the brain to find out what types of transformers or even other things we need in LLMs?
