What Could Make Eve This Colour? 

Iodine has a lower boiling point than sulfur, and KSP2 says it has liquid sulfur oceans, so it could be liquid sulfur oceans and iodine in the atmosphere and dissolved in the sulfur to make it purple.

I mean, now we gotta also get the "Why is Jool so green?" video. We are getting it, aren't we?

Keep it up I’m glad people are enjoying KSP2 and doing speculations like this, but I’m just going to wait with bated breath for KSP2 to improve soon.

It's because it goes well with the green of Kerbals, of course!

Here before 1k subs, lol, I hope you get popular like NileRed and those guys.

I see much success and popularity in your future my friend. I bet you will reach 100k by this time next year.

Could you do a video on the feasibility of the liquid lake on Vall in KSP 2? It doesn't seem very realistic to me given what the temperature would be. I hope there is some explanation for it though because it would be a shame if they just added it for the sake of adding it even if it doesn't make sense.

What an incredible channel… I love this content, I’m your 907th subscriber!

Love these videos!

Oh cool! The video on my favorite kerbolar system planet it finally out! 😁😁😁😁

The main reason why Iodine would dissolve in hexane and not water would be that iodine (the molecule) dissolves in non-polar substances as opposed to polar ones. However most kinds of liquid rocket fuel would end up being polar molecules (the main exceptions being methane and kerosine) due to the fact that oxygen and nitrogen in a molecule are beneficial regarding combustion, but often make a molecule polar. This can still make sense if the iodine dissolved in the oceans were in an ionic form, like the chlorine dissolved in our oceans. Various chemical interactions could still result in it being a gas in the atmosphere as well.

iodine can be liquid i learned it from a nile red shorts video so my theory is iodine gas is flys all of the atmosphere(like earths blue ozone) and sulfur + iodine solution is raining among the planet and giving the dirt its purple color what do you guys think?

Gast, je bent echt helemaal losgeslagen met deze filmpjes! :D Ook: Eve is paars vanwege alle brandhorens in haar oceanen. Daar heb je echt niet al die nerdy diagrammen voor nodig.

I always thought jool look so cool and beatiful with its green color, but what could make it green?🤔

As my first look at anything KSP, this was pretty fun to watch.

Love these videos man keep it up

Pretty interesting videos. Keep up what you are doing!

Before Kerbin mod gives an explanation to why it became purple

but the wiki said the oceans are similar to rocket fuel and i dont think iodine can be used for something simialr to rocket fuel.

How many times did I use the word Iodine?

the atmosphere could also comprise of potassium permenganate, as large amounts of iodine can absorb too much light and completely darken the surface

To determine the amount of iodine needed to dissolve in hexane in order to achieve a density of 1.5 tonnes per cubic meter, we'll need to use the following formula: density = (mass of solute) / (volume of solution) We can rearrange this formula to solve for the mass of solute: mass of solute = density x volume of solution According to the literature, the solubility of iodine in hexane at 25°C is about 10 g per 100 mL of hexane. We can use this information to estimate the volume of hexane needed to dissolve the mass of iodine required to achieve a density of 1.5 tonnes per cubic meter. First, we need to calculate the mass of iodine needed to achieve a density of 1.5 tonnes per cubic meter: mass of solute = density x volume of solution = 1500 kg/m^3 x (1 L / 1000 mL) x V Solving for V, we get: V = mass of solute / (density x (1 L / 1000 mL)) = 1.5 x 10^6 g / (1500 kg/m^3 x (1 L / 1000 mL)) = 1000 L This means that we need 1000 L of hexane to dissolve the mass of iodine required to achieve a density of 1.5 tonnes per cubic meter. Assuming that the solubility of iodine in hexane increases with increasing temperature and pressure, we can use the mole fraction of iodine in hexane to estimate the solubility of iodine at 5 atm and 425 K. According to Henry's law, the mole fraction of iodine in hexane is proportional to the partial pressure of iodine above the solution. We can express this relationship as: mole fraction of iodine in hexane = k x partial pressure of iodine where k is a constant that depends on the solute and solvent, and partial pressure of iodine is in atm. Since we want the solution to be liquid at 5 atm and 425 K, we can assume that the partial pressure of iodine is 5 atm. We can solve for k using the solubility of iodine in hexane at 25°C: 10 g iodine / 100 mL hexane = k x 1 atm Solving for k, we get: k = 10 g iodine / 100 mL hexane / 1 atm Now we can estimate the mole fraction of iodine in hexane at 5 atm and 425 K: mole fraction of iodine in hexane = k x partial pressure of iodine = (10 g iodine / 100 mL hexane / 1 atm) x 5 atm = 0.5 g iodine / 100 mL hexane Converting this to mass/volume ratio, we get: 0.5 g iodine / 100 mL hexane x (1 g / 1000 mg) x (1000 mL / 1 L) = 5 g iodine / L hexane Therefore, we need approximately 200 L of hexane to dissolve 1000 g of iodine, assuming that the solubility of iodine in hexane is proportional to its mole fraction in the solvent, and the solubility increases with increasing temperature and pressure.

It's all the explodium innit

the oceans always looked metallic for me...

That would make Eve's atmosphere quite toxic and corrosive. Can iodine dissolved in chloroform or hexane act like a monopropellant ? I've searched, but can't find anything hinting that it can. Now, are there any substance that is : 1) Purple and 2) Can act as a monopropellant ?

Earth used to be purple because of single cell organisms made o²

Are you sure it couldn't be just some chemical in the KSP universe like a random chemical called like...volqueine or something?

Iodine is sufficiently soluble in toluene to achieve that magical density. A pure toluene sea is unlikely, but I'm sure a clever mixture of hydrocarbons would do the job quite happily. AKA rocket fuel.

Permanganate Ions

remember that wikipedia has ksp2 thing

Eve's oceans could also be liquid iodine. Under enough pressure and temperature, iodine can actually exist as a liquid.

I wonder how you would get to a 5 bar atmosphere with a radius of 700 km. The core and mantle must consist of solid iridium or something.

LEAN WORLD!!!!👾😈💜

water is clear, not blue. it reflects the sky. maybe thats why eves oceans are purple

I don’t need sleep, I need answers

I will send a probe in KSP 2 to investigate, covered with science experiments... Wait... Oh, yeah that's right they don't exist.

Plz explain in the next video why is kerbin so close to kerbol and has liquid water

It's more likely to be a fictional and not at all sync to real world logic substance, this is supported by the fact that KSP is a game. Just a thought 🤭🤭

Hopefully not dumb questions, but why do atoms move faster when heat is added, also when the atoms move faster does them hitting each other create more heat?

Explodium

Iodine is much darker though?

well linx said that a moon crashed into eve so it’s possible

Actually Eve is one of Kerbin's neighbours! not the second planet from kerbin. It is the second planet from the Sun

It is methane. Thanks

Bruh, its just lean

why do you sound like dapz?

if i remember earth before was purple but then nature make a funni joke and become green. This mean that there was life on eve or even moreeeeeeee: Karmans started as a life on eve but asteroid hit it and some particles that have that life hit kerbin and the new life begin. Eve is purple becouse the surface itself can be multiple plants beetwen rocks and ocean below the surface. Then those plants produce funny purple gas and the atmoshere + surface purple ocean well become purple. -worst theory ever

it's more loocks like manganese...

Lean🤤💜💜🧃🧃

Why he ourple

Xenon makes purple stuff krew vvv vvvvv
