Supernovae are the most powerful explosions in the universe, unleashing enough energy to outshine galaxies. We have no real metaphor for their power - if the sun were to magically go supernova it would feel like you were being hit by the energy of a nuclear explosion, every second. For weeks.
While supernovae are the engines of creation, forging the elements that enable life, they also burn sterile whole regions of galaxies. So what would happen if one hit earth?

@dailykittencuteness5598 Год назад

The only other possibility that was eliminated was a solar storm, based on the solar maximums, but it’s still possible that the sun did it, just extremely unlikely. Also other solar storms that we know of haven’t caused this effect, which means if a solar storm did do it, it was unbelievably massive.

@doug6531 Год назад

Nothing in the solar system makes Iron-60. The sun isn't massive enough, and humans can't make it because it requires energy input from either direction, fission or fusion. Also amazing to think about, is the Iron-60 was made in the supernova...and traveled the 300 light years to earth, and arrived in enough quantity to be detectable. Also, any element heavier than Iron is only made in supernovas as well, because of the energy input required for Iron.

@mnxs Год назад

The reason they could figure that out is the particular _kind_ of radioactive iron that was found - iron-60. It's only produced by supernovae, and yet it's never found on Earth in mines and the like, as with its "mere" 2.6 mil years half-life, all of it would have decayed away (to cobalt-60) since the formation of the planet.

I hope they end up growing and getting more attention." Seven years later, my wish has most certainly been fulfilled. For years I've evangelized this channel to my friends and coworkers as the gold standard of educational content, and I still get giddy when a new video comes out. I've purchased dozens of calendars, posters, and journals, and I will happily continue to support this amazing channel. Cheers, Kurzgesagt!

These videos are TV quality, yet you produce these and offer them to us for free -- not on one channel, but on multiple channels, most of which required translations -- all for free. I respect you. You guys are one of the channels that make RU-vid. (DISCLAIMER BELOW, because there's a lot of debate in the replies.) A lot of people have taken "TV quality", to mean bad. However, I want to make it clear that I didn't mean the comment as an insult, but as a compliment. It is also important to note that I did mean streaming services, such as Netflix, not cable. Though I spend virtually no time watching either, this comment meant more so that this is quality content, that I could see becoming official rather than a RU-vid operation. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy RU-vid and consistently watch it, but you also have to remember that some RU-vid channels (such as this one) are more... polished, than others, especially considering that this is the same platform that has the family vloggers, and "DON'T CALL AT 3 AM!!! 😲😲" videos.

Even if we can invent FTL tech, we will only ever be able to visit a tiny, tiny part of the universe as (covered in another Kurzgesagt video: "TRUE Limits Of Humanity - The Final Border We Will Never Cross") everything outside our local group is expanding away from us faster than or fast as the speed of light. As mentioned in the above video, 94% of the known universe is already gone beyond the veil

I mean if you think about it life has had all this time to evolve without being entirely wiped out, what are the chances for that to happen right now in our short lives?

@ArawnOfAnnwn Год назад

@@OmniversalInsect Some things we are uniquely vulnerable to, but the rest of life isn't. The most obvious example is a human centric disease, however for a more cosmic example consider a powerful coronal mass ejection that is aimed at us. Our modern electronic society would be very negatively affected by that, while the rest of life would just see a pretty light show further south than they usually appear. And in fact we've seen such a thing quite recently - look up the Carrington event.

The best you can do to make the world better is to live your own life as well as you can, contribute to your community where you can, and not blindly follow others when it's the wrong thing to do, even if it's the popular thing to do. You don't have to be a superhero, just do the best you can realistically do. When people try to take on too much or set their goals too high for the world, they often end up doing nothing, nothing that makes a difference, or just complain and get angry or depressed.

It’s… worth noting that life probably wouldn’t have time to get anywhere near back to where we are now. While 'the sun has five billion years left' is a true statement, it’s also heating up continuously (and the concentration of carbon dioxide is dropping)- in 800-900 million years, photosynthesis will simply cease to be possible. Even as soon as 500 million years will have increasingly harsh conditions. The highest estimate is 1.2 billion years before anything more complex than single-celled organisms goes extinct.
