My name is Anton and I explain science, math or other complicated topics using simulations, video games and easy to understand words. This is a (mostly) family friendly channel with the focus on science education. All of the videos are meant to be informative and will teach you fun facts about science you probably didn't know. So subscribe and stuff
Because people keep asking me about background: -Bachelor of Science, McGill University (2006) -Worked as Astrobiology researcher in the Dr Hojatollah Vali lab at McGill -Master of Science and Math Education, University of Toronto (2014) -Math/Science/Coding teacher since 2007 in various schools, currently South Korea

Hi Anton, great video. I managed to see an aurora for my first time on May 10 - great because I've been looking upward for it for any decades here in the UK. I know we're near a solar maximum and to expect strong auroras, but this year seems to have had more nearer the equator than usual, even allowing for solar maximum. Is that correct? More than I can ever remember anyway. If the above is true, could this have anything to to do with the earth's magnetic pole 'moving around', as it has been in recent decades? I'd kind of expect that to affect the locations from which aurorae are visible. Just thought.
This event was publicized unlike many others over time. We have survived a lot. Sometimes one needs to look around at ground level and realize, the sun won’t kill us, we’re already well into our own destruction. It’s all good. Thanks for the info.
ScienceClic English I think made a more realistic one using simple hardware ray-trace rendering. He also did a ridiculous amount of calculations to remake the black hole from Interstellar and compare the movie to the simulation. He also remade and recreated what passing through a wormhole would look like. I mean… dude did his homework.
No!, the Carrington event was of 20 times more powerful, this time we saw the auroras because the WEAKENING Earth's magnetic shift due to the magnetic pole shift
There were some strong solar storms around 1997-98 also. I remember the northern lights were awesome then also. If you look at the years we have heavy snow years, it lines up with these cycles. So-called climate change has more to do with sun cycles than they want us to believe.
Anton Petrov is an international treasure! May his soul be blessed with good fortune, happiness, and fulfillment both now and in the future, so he can continue to communicate new scientific insights to us all!
Thanks Anton, very interesting! Just another thought ... you mention a Carrington event, and solar cycles, maybe helpful to explain in the clip what they are.
61 billions US tax payer money washed through ukraine into the pockets of the US military industrial complex, but 11 billion being too much for breathtaking, peaceful scientific exploration of mars... interesting priorities.
Anton talking about Dyson Spheres and then mentioning James Dyson while I’m sitting here thinking, my degree might be in accounting and not physics, but even I know that isn’t right. 🤔
Well I hope we can survive it twice because you should see the size of the sun spots that have started to appear on the western limb of the sun turning our direction that were spotted yesterday 😮😮
I think it's very interesting how earth's magnetosphere shield will literally show you colours that indicates how heavy the bombardment is, and even more so, that it aligns with the typical health bar in games where green means good and red means bad.
They didnt notify us, but i got a mysterious email from my power supplier a few days earlier to please conserve energy between the hours of 7am and 9 pm on Saturday 😂
