How Far Away Is It - 11 - Andromeda and the Local Group (4K) 

As a native English speaker, his videos are my favorite!

I ❤️ the squiggly lines of your language! Props🙏

Good night sweetie❤️

I don’t think that there’s another form of intelligent life though, that is equally gifted as humans are

@@wd1002 Personally, I’m convinced that the universe exists for eternity. That doesn’t change my point though?

Even loneliness is relative

@@GinoNLDoesn’t eternity essentially exist forever?

@@suspicionofdeceit For sure

You have described my thoughts so accurately :) Absolutely 👏🏾

I love that people appreciate this shit as much as we do. Honestly brings tears to my eyes to know we’re so lucky to have such an incredible wealth of knowledge so well made for absolutely free. It’s honestly amazing

Just a gem of RU-vid.

To the best of our knowledge, all heroes wear capes. However, we recognize that many heroes may or may not wear capes. Also, some villains wear capes. I suppose the point is, do not judge anyone wearing a cape simply by the fact that they are or are not wearing a cape. A cape is not an accurate measure of heroic intent. But David Butler is totes a hero.

😃 😄 😅

Zero now shut up

Yes it is true.

What a calming voice..

He cured my insomnia

The narration is indeed excellent ..

Agreed 100%

You sound like a cool parent. We need more like you.

yes his voice makes his videos a nice go to bed story where he fills the mind of the listener with beautiful pictures and size and distance measurments of beatiful things in the cosmos. ( me myself fall asleep 70/30 with war documentaries and space documentaries ) or stories of ancient kings and queens. I am alone and feels nice to have a voice talking to me while going to sleep. And in the long run I learn a heck of a lot.

WOW! Your kids sound so unique and interesting! I'm sure nobody ever gets fucking sick to their stomach listening to you babble on about them.

Antiscience and "Young Earth Creationist" are the types that gives videos like this a thumbs down. They think they have the all the answers they need from the bible, especially in Genesis. Any science that challenges their core beliefs is blasphemy!

Bots, trolls, flat earthers. 😂

Yes he would!! ,🙏🏾hell I'm blown away as well,!!!!!

so every body us einestein now ?

@@pcpc5242 learn how to craft coherent sentences please!

@@michaelknapp8961 you can even understand unwritten or unsaid toughts from.hearts or minds or treasures of others.

@@pcpc5242 it’s not toughts. The word is thoughts.

It’s only terrifying if you’re paying attention

It terrifies me as well, as their must be a creator who made this beautiful creation, the one creator!

Ditto

Hey there Tavanium! I feel the exact same way about space and that is why I find myself on this channel. My interest has lead me to work towards becoming an astronaut. I am currently working towards that goal, check out my journey on my channel.

Not sure the channel belongs to Butler, he never responds 5o Comments,

That would be marvelous to say the least

When you get there, take a picture and send it to us :)

I have watched a video by this same RU-vid channel where it would take 500+ million years for Voyager 1 to get to a point where a photo of the whole Milky Way Galaxy would be in the pic

@@angeloriggi6370 It would take voyager around 70,000 years to reach the nearest star from our sun

@@chew76 yes, that nearest star is within our Milky 🌌 Way At the current technology, any manned mission would take about 170,000 years to reach Proxma Centari

It's like somebody wanted to keep us here. Good idea.

And we fight among over what God to believe in or what political opinions to hold. We're simply not ready for that real estate out there.

This Isnt Just a Rock Your Standing On,We Live On a Beautiful Planet,But in an Ugly World..And That Comment Above Mine

@@Earthneedsado-over177 How do I know you hate America?

@@timothyandrewnielsen The Earth isn't America, dimwit.

That's why we have our OOB senses, we're designed to be awed by the wonders of creation from direct observations. The caveman tools we are using right now are nothing in comparison to the secrets of our organic genome.

Lol yeah kinda hilarious how we walk around with big egos and self importance like our crap doesn't stink. We are absolutely but a spec of a spec of a thousand million specs.

These numbers truly make your heart ache.

@@patricksullivan653which numbers are you talking about?

Indeed, we can build tens of thousands of tanks but only one Hubble Space Telescope...

Because we speak different language and have different backgrounds and different beliefs and that makes it hard tor us to unite

Ugh that's how survival of the fittest works you dunce

@@anthonyhutchins2300 Why call him dunce, he only ask a question. Must you comment if you don't have anything positive to say?

🙏

Just wish Butler would respond to a few of these comments.

The universe is filled with life and the saddest part is we might never get to see them. The distance is just so vast, I don’t think mankind will unlock interstellar anytime soon. We are too busy fighting over trivial things amongst each other.

@@Dan-Martin I totally agree. It’s very sad.

taha ch755 why are you messaging me? You sound delirious. Please get some help. There is no god.

goodsummitguy it took one Billion years for the first life forms to develop on earth and another 3.5 Billion years for that life to evolve into you and me.

@@malcolmtent thank you, I see, but those stars exists also billions of years ago not only 2M years ago as we are seeing them now. All I am saying is that so many stars near our galaxy and we don't even need to look further to find one civilization :)

goodsummitguy I agree; the Milky Way is 13.5 billion years old with 300 billion stars and Andromeda is 10 billion years old with 900 billion stars. Definitely enough time and real estate for the biochemistry to happen; and we know it happens because we exist to have a discussion about it.

Since my encounter, many decades past, I believe our space family will return. Those intermensional beings have visited since, always loving with approval.😍

PS that is : INTERDIMENTIONAL

Great idea!

As if it ain't mind blowing enough

John Cronin ,🤔🤔Now You Have Me Wondering Why They Built an Observatory In a Heavily Light Polluted Area

PafMedic I live in Massachusetts. Light pollution is a problem almost everywhere in the eastern part of the state. The observatory was part of an upgrade of a local college to a university, and the observatory is atop a whole new science building. That’s a problem also, because anyone walking in lower floors of the building causes vibrations which affect the quality of the viewing. This isn’t just a problem with this university. Light pollution is a problem around the globe. Just viewing through the atmosphere is difficult, not just because of the twinkling, caused by the atmosphere, but because our atmosphere blocks many parts of the EM spectrum from reaching the surface. This is good for life on Earth, but tough for observers. I think the next step is an observatory on the far side of the Moon. That solves the light pollution problem, and we could build instruments that can explore across the entire EM spectrum. And “night” lasts two entire weeks. But this telescope is good for an introduction to astronomy, and it’s open to the public one night a week (though not now, during the pandemic).

Mister Thank you!

Ah haha 😄.lmao

Humans were never big but our brains are just look at the structures we built all thanks to our tiny brains capable of so imaginations.

yup

,😂😂😂

Probably

the universe is so large, if andromeda and Milky way collided, the probability of star collision is low.

If Pluto's orbit (of over 6 bill miles) was scaled down to just 1 mm, our galaxy would be 100 km diam and Andromeda would be 2000 km away.

We can see even individual stars in M31 and M33.

What's even more mind-boggling is the fact that this only about the local group with trillions of stars.. It's crazy

@Star Scream Milky Way is my favorite chocolate bar.

What if there human like us on andromeda trying to get here...😮😮

​@taha ch755 Well, there really isn't much of a difference between Christianity and Islam, is there?

Well said my fellow man kind, the Universe is full of gods goddesses and life forms just like you and me.😍

@@ominous-omnipresent-they If you believe in the God of the Bible, the Word of the One True God, YHVH, then you believe in the creation of Adam and Eve. God blessed them and told them to take dominion over all the earth and all things here. God gave them one warning: Not to eat of the forbidden "fruit", else they would die that "day" ("One day to God is as one thousand years to man.") Eve was tempted by a "serpent"; tempted TO disobey, tempted TO defy God's command, tempted TO taste what appeared "good to eat" (was the serpent eating the "fruit"?) . She did not fear the serpent/dragon. The serpent did not threaten to harm her or her husband. *By persuasion alone was Eve deceived to believe a lie.* God cursed both Eve and Adam, the earth, and the serpent/dragon. Evil, sin and death entered this world because of their disobedience. Adam lost his dominion and the evil one took over. *But God.* Not without a promise of Redemption for Eve and Adam's descendants to return unto God. Who stipulated the required redemptive price of *innocent blood* ? We are not privy to the laws and commands between the evil one and our Creator God, but the evil one knew there could NEVER hence be any man with *innocent* blood. So such was the price. God promised there would be One to pay that ransom. The evil one tried killing and mixing the "seed of the woman" to stop that Redeemer ("The sons of God [fallen angels] saw that the daughters of men were beautiful [compared to ??] and *took them and had offspring* ") . (Think Eve was an exception? She had already sinned.) Cain, one interpretation, says "was the son of the evil one", killed Abel. The pagan rulers had male Jewish children killed at least twice in Scripture. What the evil one did not know, was that out of the *love* God has for man, God chose to pay that price of *innocent* blood Himself, and redeem us back to Him through a human form of Himself, Jesus *the Christ* , not a mere "prophet". Islam claims: *GOD HAS NO SON.* So, no, you are indeed wrong. The Qu'ran completely denies mankind's need for redemption even though God established the sacrifice of innocent animals "with no defect" to be a temporary ATONEMENT for His people's sins. The Qu'ran refuses to accept that an all powerful God CANNOT stoop so low as to sacrifice Himself for His *CHILDREN* . And if there were no other differences between Christianity and Islam, that alone should wake you up to the *fact* that Christianity and Islam do *NOT* serve the same God. Men make God in *their* image, and, therefore, believe He is too MASCULINE to sacrifice Himself for His creation. They do not know all the attributes of God: *love* , *compassion* , *patience* , etc. A MASCULINE God, in men's logic, would NOT save a human's tears, yet His Word says He does. I leave you with one wisdom God's Holy Spirit gave me: Can God grow? My reply: NO! God is all in all! With different events that followed within a few years, I learned: God can grow. How, you ask? *CHILDREN* . Maranatha (He comes) !!!

@taha ch755 TLDR

@taha ch755 Believe what you want, pal. I practically guarantee, no one here is interested. Lots of words can't mask that you have an empty argument.
