Seeing Saturn through a telescope for the first time is an experience you don't forget. Even with 50X magnification it still feels like you're observing an ant-sized object, which puts into perspective how far away it is. But you can easily see the overall ring shape and just barely see the shadow of the planet being cast onto the rings.

@fireblow6842 5 месяцев назад

I've seen something similar through a telescope once in my life. It feels unreal, I had to take a second look and was still questioning wether or not the image I was seeing was real.

Alex, you have painted an extraordinary portrait of Saturn, my favorite planet of the Solar System, outside of Earth. Not just because of it's beauty, but also because if it wasn't for Saturn's gravitational effect on Jupiter 4 billion years ago, there probably would not be 4 rocky planets, including Earth, orbiting the Sun. Instead they would probably be rogue planets ejected from their orbits to roam in cold, dark interstellar space and the Solar System would have a hot Jupiter. It makes me shiver to think about it.

Video suggestion/idea. What would happen to the earth if it became tidally locked to the sun? And what time of the year would you pick for the earth to become tidally locked to the sun if you could in hopes of giving humanity the best chance at survival? Personally I would pick the longest day for the southern hemisphere with the Pacific Ocean facing the sun. Water would have a better chance of moving heat around the planet and we would get to uncover the land beneath Antarctica. You'd also have multiple large land masses ( Asia and Australia on the east and the Americas for the west ) that would remain on the edge of day/night which would end being where all of us would live.

@thebigdog2295 5 месяцев назад

It's a nice concept, but humans wouldn't be able to survive it. One side of the Earth would be a blast furnace. And the other side, a blast freezer. And the temperature difference would create wind storms because of the differences. And the wind speed would most likely be highest right where you put us living. I worked in a blast freezer when I was younger. And the temperature in there was kept at -40 degrees Fahrenheit. And there are blast freezers that are even colder. The temperature on the side in perpetual darkness, would be a lot, lot lower than that. Cold enough to freeze it completely. It's a concept that's been written about by sci-fi writers over the years. But none of them ever really did research into the actual science of what it would be like.

@christopherpardell4418 5 месяцев назад

@@thebigdog2295It’s not Iike it would happen all at once. It would be a million years of earth’s rotation slowing, well after the moon had been flung off into space, and plate tectonics had stopped. meaning the carbon cycle had stopped. A myriad of different things each of which cold render us extinct would already have happened. In short, we could not possibly survive anywhere near long enough to witness a tidally locked earth.

A rotating magnetic system may possibly find a way to act as either a generator or a motor. It can rotate more slowly (as it is not necessarily a solid) and generate a larger magnetic field, or vice versa. Physics 101. It is unlikely we have sufficient evidence to identify the unknown factor/factors*. The only mystery is our understanding. You are not alone. With you, bro. We do not understand either. 😎 * I have a feeling, but do not know, that this may share some similarity with the 3-body problem. Props for the beautiful images. Saturn is a Physics demonstrator.

@tonyduncan9852 5 месяцев назад

What is very interesting is that energy transfer in such conditions is fairly lossless. Whenever different physical processes interact, this should interest you or anyone. We must understand such outcomes because our future is not certain. Energy transfer from core to atmosphere is unlikely to exceed 10%. The core is a hot and radioactive plasmatic solid. And massive.

Counting ripples in the rings! We just love counting rings don't we? Can't seem to help ourselves from coming up with some new way to do it. 🧐🧐 It is so amazing how much we already know about Saturn. Thank you so much for a movie of Cassini's plunge!!

It's a bummer that they had to destroy this plucky little spacecraft. This thing has to be in the conversation of pound-for-pound spacecraft champions. Thanks for putting such a comprehensive video together about this *cough* stellar *cough* *cough* machine. I'll just slide out the side door now. Cheers!

I remember watching its final plunge live (NASA livestream). Very sad moment.

How extraordinary that even after all these data are gathered in that we still have so many questions regarding this wonderful world. Thank you.

The only problem I have with this channel is the click bait video titles.

You are correct. Excellent videos marred by unethical marketing.

The narrator's voice makes me love this channel especially his tone so delightful and charming.

So 5000 deaths from cancer is an acceptable risk for NASA! Isn't 0 deaths more acceptable? What a very nice organisation!

@sanityshorror 5 месяцев назад

I mean the first moon mission was much more 9/10 chances of death, given our tech levels. And they were already shooting people into space. So. Maybe that helps put into perspective that uh...they aren't all that concerned with life 😭

By this logic cars on roads should be unacceptable because the chance of any one dying from car accident is millions times higher than chance of Cassini probe falling to Earth. Hundreds of thousands die in car accidents every year. If everything, which has even a small chance of killing people, is unacceptable, then almost everything is unacceptable. Cigarettes and alcohol should be banned for sure, for example

Something I really appreciate about this video is that the Computer Generated Images are labeled as such. Unfortunately many media sites do not make this distinction and end up being very misleading with their information. Thank you for your integrity.
