@@icyFL0 lol feel happy you are born today as you can even came to knew about planets . Imagine born in an era like B.C aur A.D or before 1900 or 1800 you wouldn't even knew about what are planets and stars 🤩 So be happy about what you got 😊
It literally breaks my heart that I will never be able to see or visit another earth like planet or get to see an extraterrestrial civilization in my life time. If everyone on all sides, all nations and religions got their heads out of their ass and realize the gift we have been given I truly believe humanity could achieve interstellar space travel. Instead we'd rather wage war on each other, keep the less fortunate locked in poverty, stab each other in the back for a promotion at work and hate each other for having different opinions.
The fact that we truly don’t know very much about the closest planet outside our solar system, should tell you everything about how vast and huge the universe really is
@@lijingliangssuit8012 I feel bad for you, victimizing yourself and being negative on a comment completely unrelated to you. Sorry about whatever you have going on in life to make you act that way.
I think its weird how people keep thinking that planets have to be like earth to support life but who knows maybe there's life out there that live or don't need anything that a human does to survive thanks for coming to my Ted talk have a great day
Thanks for mentioning David Kipping in here. His work has been incredible for research on exo-moons and exo-planets. And I love his channel on RU-vid - it's great.
You want 7-8 billion people to conquer the entire universe? We are eons from being able to conquer our own solar system let alone galaxy. This is a false narrative no matter the technology we develop. The rate the universe is expanding and thus cooling far exceeds what humanity will *ever* be possible to keep up with. I hope to see space travel and more exploration and no doubt over the next 50 years there will be amazing breakthroughs. This just isn’t 1 of them
Not necessarily, we could do both at the same time. Studying other planets and visiting them could teach us about our own planet and how to better take care of it@@josamabingundyakawarpath9429
I have traveled the whole universe in my dreams !! Don’t know why I just dream about traveling to different Galaxy’s , that’s the reason I am watching this documentary right now !!
Space is so fascinating! The secrets that will never be known. We humans are stupid, we honestly think that nothing can have life unless it meets OUR requirements? Logic like this is why we will never reach planetary space travel
Every night 🌙 😴 before I fall asleep I must watch one of these documentaries it's the absolute best for knowledge about space and his voice is so soothing and relaxing x
Just because we gauge distances in space by light years doesn’t mean any human or alien can travel anywhere close to that speed. There could be hundreds of other civilizations just like ours or completely different unaware of the others because the distances are too far from each other. Hard to believe we could be the only ones
I believe you hat bacterial life is common among the stars, but multicellular and intelligent life may be very rare or even nearly impossible because it requires a stable star (our sun has been found to be very quiet compared to other G type stars) with a stable planet (the large moon - a very improbable event) stabilizes the earth’s rotation. Even so, life came scarily close to total extinction several times during the earths history. (Especially the “Snowball Earth Event”)
In the scale model of HD 106906 B, where the earth is the size of a tennis ball and the sun a five story building, there's no reference of comparable size for Neptune or the planet in question. This is just a little confusing seeing as how the end of the reference emphatically states, "Keep in mind that in this reference, the earth is the size of a tennis ball!". What would the size of Neptune be? What would the size of HD 106906 B be? Also, it would probably be easier to imagine a meter than a kilometer, of we're using a scale model to better understand the distance and mystery of gravitational attraction at said distance. Not to sound too contrary, I absolutely love the content, that's the only part of the video I really had trouble with 😅
Sir! You have a splendid voice, clear speech ("the lips, the teeth, the tip of the tongue" as they say) - and slightly boyish wide-eyed wonder 🤩🤩 that together make magic. I truly love your narration.
Although no planet is exactly earth as of yet, even our best telescopes are only able to look in one galaxy and so far only a small part of that. Understand that the equipment for detailed analysis is also being invented and perfected, also from early infancy stages. It will all get better with time. To quote an old saying, "If at first you don't succeed, try try again". Sooner of later we will find a place where conditions are very similar to ours. With the size of the universe it would be harder to believe we will not find one, than believe that we will.
It shatters my mind when I know us dreaming of far away watery planets while we run down our planet not knowing how to save it while talking about terraforming Mars.
Well, I wouldn’t say we don’t know how to save earth, I mean humans are actually pretty smart. Climate change is pretty much irreversible. But there’s steps like reducing carbon emissions we can take to reduce the harm we are causing for our planet
@@brandonskates Of course we're doing a little bit. But our big brains have small minds and wrinkled hearts. With every tree cut down in a rainforest, whole species of animals, fungi and plants in a self-sustaining ecosystem is completely eradicated, nobody takes notice, just to become recyclable cardboard boxes and toothpicks and make place for biofuels or rocket starting ramps. We are unbearably dumb.
I love space so much. I'm saddened I'll never get to study it because I threw away my time in college on a management degree and my math skill is horrid. Amazing documentary though!
If you're a fan of pulp horror, Brian Lumley did a series of novels in the 80's called the "Necroscope" series, where portals link Earth to an alien planet that's tidally locked, with a "Sunside" and "Starside", and humans who wandered there in ancient times living in the ring of twilight. Alien parasites from Starside infest humans and animals, turning them into flesh-warping vampires, and the novels start with some of those vampires finding their way back to Earth.
@@paulgibbon5991 RANDOM, BUT: May i recommend some other science-channel, in an effort to spread joy and education and also battle anti-science? Or is this too random?
It’s funny how ppl speak so confidently on how they know the weight, age, temperature and distance of each star & planet. In reality nobody really has a clue of all this. It’s just mere guesses and probably not even close to what they really are.
I remember watching star trek and they found a small moving black hole in space but it was alive, i just hope there isn't anything like that in our universe
I scrolled for a bit but didn’t see a comment giving credit to the camera man who travelled to all these systems and planets to get us the awesome footage
Forget rockets its warping space. Thats how area 51 found out after shooting down several ufos and realised reverse engineering. Read Timothy goods books. It explains it all.
Omg these are the kinds of videos I need. I’ve been trying to find videos about the exoplanets,cause no one really studies them anymore. Amazing vid 🤩 I like other planets more than ours :-P
No, because all we can see that is light years away is the light that finally caught up to us from other huge stars/galaxies. No way we can see a little spaceship light years away
I feel like I'm in school. It's summer, school's about to let out. We're having a party, with plates of cookies and doritoes. Everyone else is playing games, so I can barely hear the video but it's ok. Anyways, this is super cool 😎 👌
Crazy how all these graphics originated from someone’s imagination and we take as fact. No one has the slightest clue how things look and operate out there
There are things no matter how hard they try to explain it will never have an answer. God is the answer. And I wish science wouldn't always try to remove him from the equation
I have respect for religion but I’ve also observed no evidence of a god. Not sure how any reasonable person could be confident in an existence of a higher being
@@dirtymike3329 Well we believe that no reasonable person could think that they just happened without Devine intervention. I think that in the quiet times of your life, you know of God's existence but you allow the fallen angel to convince you to deny Him. I pray that something happens in your life to change your stance and accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal savior.
From a distance none of our mortal worries matter lost to the seas and infinite possibility, remember that. From a distance none of our lives matter, but the imprint we leave to the stars. Some would ask what the hell did I just say, but from a distance……………..
One of my other favorite facts about Wasp 12b is that it's discovery was officially announced on April 1st. Bet other astronomers thought the announcement was a prank.
Good show. So far I'm glad the commercials seem to be about the same level volume-wise as the show. Usually I listen to space documentaries while falling asleep. Usually I cant do that because commercials blasts me awake.
Maybe point out that evaluations of which exoplanets are "habitable" by scientists will vary insanely depending on which theory they follow. E.g. Followers of such like the "Rare Earth" hypothesis will list criteria that involves every parameter and feature of earth that they rationalise has contributed to habitability in some way, which means excluding every planet that isn't the same as the earth. ... Which is ironic considering life here began when the earth was airless and lava-ridden. most likely around hydrothermal vents (i.e. at the bottom of the ocean away from the sun). There seems to be some confusion over the distinction between "habitable for humans" and "habitable for life." Obviously there's a bit of a difference, y'know?
He said Venus and Neptune have small rings but its actually Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. I remember it because it’s only the giant gas and giant ice planets that have rings.
idk but the thought that we only live one time and i know i will never ever have a chance to see or experience the future after i pass. i will never know what happens to my friends after i pass. i will never know anything and it just makes me feel so empty…
These scientists need to stop thinking that every life form might need water, oxygen and certain temperatures to survive. They might not need the same things we need. We need to stop being so erogant.
Great overview! 👍👍 It is still clear to me none of the planets discovered so far, even in the habitable zone, have a snowball‘s chance in Hell to host life anything like we are familiar on Earth. Wherever the aliens are, they are either very far away, from a parallel universe or are just us…but….from our future.
@@ZombiePepperoni Extremophiles prove you are right for extreme Earth conditions, given though water and shielding from uv, gamma and cosmic rays by the ionosphere. However, on planets commonly bathed in very harsh penetrant radiation it may be very different case. On Mars we have yet to find a Martian microbe and Mars is as close to Earth as we will find in the next 50 years. The Earth is a very rare planet indeed, rocky crust, an ionosphere, water, magnetic field, stabilizing moon, goldilocks zone, none flaring sun, not too near the galactic center, comet absorbing Jupiter….and so on.
I love to sleep listening to space documentaries but I hate the adverts that pop up every 5-10 mins that last for up to 15mins about online betting or something stupid I’ll never pay for
I don't know why but i prefer a British accent on these vids. Much more soothing and educated also this dude sounds like the movie trailer narrator!!!!
Recently found your channel. I absolutely love and enjoy it to the max! You should have _1 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS_ just because of your outstanding content! 👏 👍
Often, yeh- but sometimes not for years until I hear bout something like that 270d exo-planet... Thus me clicking on your vid..only just started so I'll write another comment when I FINISH! 😅
I don't care what anyone says, "Pluto is a planet, that's what I was taught and no one trying to make a name for themselves will change the reality of Pluto, our ninth planet. Oh, and 9 is a much nicer number than 8.
I'm so tired and listening to this vid for the very 1st time ... damn you !!!! :) ... its so interesting I won't be able to fall asleep until its over. *Thanks for the awesome presentation.*
The gravity of a star (or indeed, anything else) never becomes zero, it simply gets overriden by the gravity of neighbouring objects. Until you reach that point, orbit is possible.
Love the documentaries. For the other nerds like me that have a good understanding of concepts like Tidal locking, habitable zones and know most of the systems with potentially habitable planets within 30 ly (I'm by no means an astronomer or physicist)..are there any channels or books you can recommend that go a little deeper?
