The Solar System is BIGGER 

Did you spot the snail?😉

1:09 You can fit the su- *EVERYONE DIES*

Tbh there is just a point where it’s too hard to visualize it but man you did a great job! Best representation of the actual distance I’ve ever seen so far

My hopes for exploration and fantasy were crushed as a kid when I learned how big space was. It’s also blows my mind to think that these other galaxies or stars are so huge that you can see them with a telescope or naked eye given the scale of space.

I don't understand how this channel is not dominating youtube. Seriously, your dedication to animations is unmatachble considering that you only expect 10k views on a video. I think you should get atleast a minimum of 1M views.

I found a website once (unfortunately don't remember the name of it, its been a while) that really helped put it into perspective. It had the solar system as a pixelated version of itself, and had you scroll from the sun to the edge of the solar system. Took me a good hour to scroll through. It probably wasn't even accurate, but like i said, it helped me realize that the solar system is truly bigger than anyone can imagine

Thank you for considering my suggestion to use more in-hand scales to reference the size of the solar system (and universe.) You did an excellent job at visualizing and comparing the size and distances in a simple and comprehendible manner to better educate people than those space books you buy as a kid.

jesus now imagine how strong the gravitational pull is when you’re close to the sun, if the planets orbit just fine at those distances

1:18 you said exactly what I thought💀 universe scale videos always go like that

This is by far the best representation of how far things really are from each other in our solar system that I’ve ever seen. Thank you!!!

I have seen approximately three trillion videos on this subject, and you managed to actually do something new and compelling with it. I'm super impressed. 👏👏👏

Ive known that fact about the distance between the earth and moon being so large that you can fit every other planet in that gap with room to spare for many years, this may be the first time ive seen/heard someone else talking about it :)

It's hard to appreciate just how FAR even the closest objects in space are. Our minds just aren't made for such things.

I just found out about your channel and really liked your art style. I was surprised to see you only have 30k subs. Stay dedicated to this beautiful channel and you’ll blow up soon enough. Hope to see you at the peaks of youtube.

So happy to have found you😄 Great animation, and I love your sense of humor!! Your channel is gonna blow up dude

This is the first video from your channel that i've seen, so i just found out about you. After visiting all your other socials, i have to agree with others here that say you are an underated channel and definitely deserve more success. I know you will reach 100k subs soon. Its also inspiring to see you are not just a youtuber, and have success with many things. This makes me feel like i also have the freedom to explore more than one creative skill. Keep up the good work!

Your animations are great and you are underrated for all the math knowledge and stuff you need to do for this

Incredible content! Been around since the start, and have seen the incredible progress and Incorporation of suggestions from the viewers. Greatly looking forward to each and every post.

Most underrated channel on RU-vid

Nice video. Explains the true scale and feeling of how big the solar system really is

I'm so glad to see this! This what I thought how HUGE the universe was and was never wrong about it. Glad that I've found this. I'll definitely share this with my class soon.

Lmao the existencial crisis and off tangents every given second and stopping before getting off tangents is a great touch i don't know if you script this but good job on making it sound natural

I really think that you will become the next kursegesat, the quality of the videos you make are impressive and how you simplify things is even more amazing! Keep up the good work ❤

I do like at the very beginning where you said “You live right here” and pointed at North America, that is almost exactly where I live

moons in tv shows, cartoons, movies, and games be like: 0:27

Perfect for kids

3:58 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 love this part

great content, your channel is definitely gonna blow up in popularity soon!

4:53 In a way I feel shouted out, I live in the Seattle Area. Let's go to my people in Seattle. 👍

The fact that he said "you live right here" and the arrow was EXACTLY where I live made my heart skip a beat

1:31 you can see the sun still

Honestly a lot of sci fi novels need to stop having their stories take place over an entire galaxy and set it in just our solar system. Because an entire galaxy is just way to big for most stories to have such an impact over it, while a solar system is still massive.

A BIG Thank you for letting us understand such an amount of information so easily and quickly. Actually, I tried to created an image with actual size/distance scale of Sun and earth. But that image became so absurdly narrow and thin but streched out that was , kindof , weird .. 😅

i love the little noise at 6:20 ^^ great sound design!!

I sure do love when a video begins, “you live right here,” and pinpoints my exact location with scary accuracy.

another amazing video! these kinds of videos from you are the best scale videos i've encountered

Bro youre like kurzgesagt but simpler. You deserve millions

YES!! THIS VIDEO IS SO FREAKING AMAZING!! THANK YOU!!!! I've been wanting a video that could give an actual sense of scale to our solar system for ages and this has really been so perfect!!

I love Space stuff but you do it with a twist around all of that and with your sense of humor you will blow up very quick. Good luck mate

5:57 more interestingly, that puts it over the Karman line 6 times over, that Oort cloud object is in space. Despite how much you reduced the solar system, it still goes out to a massive scale.

Did you have to make the person standing next to each other reference for the American audience? Since ... you know, they measure in football fields and hot dogs?...

0:01 As a Kansas City resident, I am terrified that you pinpointed my city’s exact location.

I love this video. There are always those videos showing the biggest stars next to each other, but I was always much more impressed by the size of the distances between the different things

the fact that all the planets can fit inside the distance of the earth to the moon always creeps me out😭😭

Can someone PLEASE force JJ Abrams to watch this before he ever gets another dime to make a sci fi film?

I've been thinking about this for so long, and tell everyone about how far everything actually is. I'm glad someone finally made a good and easy-to-follow video on it

This really makes you visualize how incredibly strong the sun’s gravity is that things so ridiculously far away from it are sill affected by

When I saw this channel only had 38k subscribers I was actually shocked, totally subscribing myself!

5:09 Sedna: Why do people always forget me 😢?

Now you gotta understand why space is called “Space”.

"You live somewhere on this oblate spheroid" The 6 people on the International Space Station : do i exist to you?

Distance between each planet and the sun in miles Mercury: 36M Venus: 69M Earth: 93M Mars: 144M Jupiter: 483M Saturn: 889M Uranus: 1.8B Neptune: 2.8B

Thanks! That was fun. I feel like as i got older the world got less and less magical. Thinking about the universe like this brings that magical feeling back to me because it's all just so hard to really comprehend so thanks for that!

Awesome video, really enjoyed. Animation is really good

What I've learned is that I need four people to assert as much dominance as the Sun.

This is a great channel dude i swear. “If you stacked a bunch of these tiny people on top of eachother” 😂😂

1:08 I laughed at this part 😂

3:44 hotel OJ???

I never understood the scale of the solar system because ALL the diagrams and infographics used always scale up the size of the planets or squish them together. I truly had no concept of the vast distances in the solar system until I found a site called 'the moon is a pixel' which is exactly what it says on the tin. The moon is the size of a single pixel and you can just scroll and scroll and scroll from the sun outwards. It drove me insane!

This is very educational. Sometimes I find a gem of a video like this and it really annoys me that the channel doesn't have more followers. This is too good to be hidden in the bowels of youtube.

3:31 if you troh the tomato will smage on the flore

1:40 uhm, one tiny but very significamt correction. The sun would be VERY visible. Even on this scale. Not due to its size. But because of the ungodly amount of light it radiates into space.

A wise man once said The planets’ aren’t people lining up for coffee they’re spheroids in constant orbit (CGP Grey)

This video plays like a sneeze that won’t come out *and I love it*

I feel a bit dumb even mentioning this but your video reminded me of a seemingly very common phenomena, which nevertheless always perplexed my layperson's brain. Which is to say why do orbiting bodies always follow an ellipse rather than a perfect circle. As far as I was able to determine it's simply a matter of probability. given two bodies of Mass there are many possible elliptical orbits but by definition only one circular orbit. It is therefore possible, but extremely unlikely to encounter a perfectly circular orbit. Embarrassingly obvious when stated this way but yeah, just in case any one else actually ever wondered about this. ps great video.

4:24 COVID-19 GET AWAY!

I once read a long time ago that if you had a flat paper map, the size of a football field, of our Milky Way galaxy, then our Solar System would be much smaller than the period at the end of this sentence.😮

There is a rail trail in danvers/topsfield north of boston that does a fantastic job of illustrating the size of the planets and their distance to eachother.

Your channel is soo good and the humour is very relevant and funny compared to other youtubers. Keep it up you deserve more subs 👍

What ? That's filename2 (NULL) ! I see in 2:52 !

That noise you just heard is the sound of my head exploding.

I knew that Earth and the Moon were farther apart than models show, but I didn't know that you could fit all the planets and dwarf planets together between Earth and the Moon during apogee and still have room to spare!

3:12 Created!? You mean the largest planet that formed from our protoplanetary disk.

0:09 I always knew the earth was flat! Thanks for the proof here

I’m honestly scared in the first three seconds I see a marker exactly where I live

Space is unimaginable. Keeps me up at night ever so often trying to comprehend it.

1:03 if that is true then why has it not drifted away from earths gravity

Love the animation, also love how you explained it👍

'A tomato sitting on the ground 10 stories below a pea' is actually exactly how my brain needed to hear this. Thanks lol.

Those scale comparison videos are always fun

Damn, americans would really rather use anything than the metric

0:13 ik ppl WILL deny me here bc This is controversial but, (I believe In god so lemme explain) it is proven, in the Bible that the “earth” is flat! And.. “earth” is the LAND of the “planet”! The *water* is just separate.

I don't think any of these are "misconceptions". They're just diagrams that help us understand without everything being to scale. Not to scale diagrams are very important to understanding. I'd actually say its a misconception that any of these are misconceptions.

The fact that all the planets can fit between us and the moon if they were right next to each other makes me inexplicably comfortable. Mainly the part were i am forced to imagine jupiter that close to earth, i dont want to collide with the death stormes planet

This video is so pointless

I actually watched a video called: to scale: the solar system: I watched it in science class and it showed how all the pictures you see of the solar system are false and wrong and how the distances are way bigfer

This should be required watching for all young students. A little existential dread can be inspiring.

It's astonishing how all those spacecrafts take close pictures of these planets when they are so difficult to find on such a large scale

Bro started the video with doxxing our location💀💀😭😭

These videos are so good, you deserve more subscribers

The series Mars also had a good visualization of the size of the solar system. Marbles were placed in a field in the desert.

Dude just called me useless in all the existing languages

“Wait wrong video!” This channel is so underrated it needs to have more subscribers with the amount of dedication that goes into this channel.

probably the best way to explain the scale of the solar system without making it boring

Such a great video! I've always wondered about exactly this. Thank you!

How this doesn't have millions of views yet 😨 so many people are missing out on peak content. Hope it gets popular real soon.

Imagine t posing with your friends while having a tomato on ur head

It would be an actually fun exercise for children and students to compare the distances of the solar system with other simpler things. It was so hard to get a grasp with these massive numbers.

I honestly find it so fascinating when I look to the sun from the earth as much as I can before going blind, but it also feels weird how small I am and how far away it actually is. Man I love space❤❤❤

to put it in a nutshell, the solar system is huge af.
