I think Michi Kaku might have used "gas" as an analogy to describe the state matter was in before it started interacting with the higgs field.

lol...that has nothing to do with his assertion that gas is massless. Maybe he should learn to read.

There's no reason to be derogatory about it.....the guy in the video clearly uses that quote......and I don't know, he is clearly not using an analogy....maybe just poor wording on his part. I don't know enough to critique his explanation. 

 

The fact that gases have mass is elementary. This is something taught to every single person in early science education. Either he shouldn't be discussing it at all, or he's trying to upset me. I'm not sure which.

 

I'm going to second KungKras on this. You need to go look at his original question and the quotation.

Do you agree with this scientific statement: “originally the universe was a gas of particles with no mass at all”?

which is exactly what the guy in the video said......not taking anything out of context, distorting the meaning, or misquoting.

Problem is he took one sentence out of context, which to me, appears entirely illogical and asked a question about it. After you or whoever explained further, I realize it's just a way to explain it in simple terms. It's all hypothetical anyway, maybe massless gases did exist prior to the Big Bang. 

I still don't see why you're defending him. Taking things out of context is never a good idea in a discussion of science.
