If intelligent life exists in these surrounding galaxies, then they might be discussing the possibility of life in Milky Way, in their version of RU-vid too.
If lightspeed is physically impossible then it’s likely that any civilisations separated by large distances across the universe will never know they aren’t alone!
I think that may be true ... if is in our Milky Way potentially 3,500 habitable planets ,but we will never know, because logically we cannot see so far, and most importantly, everyone is looking to the past. For example, someone from the Andromeda Galaxy would see dinosaurs running around our planet,or a planet full of volcanoes with an unbreathable atmosphere, etc ....
@@Sallamista exactly it’s so crazy and awesome to think about. The stuff in Star Wars could literally be happening somewhere in a galaxy trillions of light years away. They might be super advanced and can “hyper jump” but would still not be able to see or travel across to other galaxies, that’s just the way I think of it
Imagine how beautiful our galaxy looks to aliens inside one of those satelite galaxies. The vast majority of their night sky would be covered by elliptical Milky Way Galaxy.
I thought about this as well! Being part of the galaxy is cool and all, but being in a planet just outside the outskirts of the galaxy must be a sight to behold
Call me crazy but I strongly think that, given how big the universe is and how many billions of galaxies there are, we're not the only planet to have life on it. There's a high chance that somewhere outside of our galaxy there is a galaxy with a planet which inhabits humans too.
@@Hugo-er2gj I think so too. Given the sheer number of galaxies and the planets in them, it's hard not to believe that there are other life forms out there. Even intelligent life forms like us, humans. Unfortunately we will never know what's out there..
@@tamim4235 we, as in me and you? Yep, we may never know. We as in humanity... If we assume that humanity doesn't destroy itself, I am convinced that we will find new ways of traveling, fast enough even to "break" the speed of light. This would allow us to explore the billions of stars in our own galaxy and potentially even other members of the local group. I assess the chance large that we will be able to find intelligent life forms within our local group, the milky way alone contains and estimated 100-400 billion stars, add to that a trillion in the andromeda galaxy. Yeah, while we will definetly not be able to experience this ourselves, I believe our generation will, with the exponentially acceleration pace of technological advancements, lay the very foundation that will make things like this possible. It's not unlikely that we will be able to send a probe to the Proxima Centauri system and get pictures of it within our lifetime! Furthermore, there is still a lot to explore in our own solar system; several of the gas giants' moons have been found to have water underneath their service. There is even a chance that there are simple life forms on those moons! What I'm trying to say is that we should not be disappointed by the limits of the current generation, instead, we should thrive to break those limits.
@@Hugo-er2gj Spot on, I agree. As in life forms: Yes, I wouldn't be surprised if there are other planets elsewhere in the universe which inhabit humans. Again, the sheer size of the universe makes it difficult to assume otherwise. If we look at it mathematically: the probability calculation (Stochastics) favour these theories, even NASA engineers said there must be life out there just because of the unbelievable and unimaginable amount of planets in the universe. Scientist say there are more stars in the OBSERVABLE universe than ALL grains of sand on planet earth. I hope you're right and our technology reaches this far.. But I'm a little pessimistic about it. What's interesting is the Fermi Paradoxon, Fermi basically said the same thing. Let's assume for a second that there have been other INTELLIGENT life forms like us humans WAY WAY before we humans inhabited earth or even before the earth was created. The intelligent life forms, I believe, would have done the same thing as we have: search for life outside of their solar system. But maybe they never reached this far in technology or whatever because they went extinct after a certain time. Honestly we are headed in the same direction, we humans won't be living any longer if we continue like this. One can only hope that out technology advances pretty fast. I can't wait for the James Webb space telescope. I'm dying to know what's out there. But I belive I'll never get to know it..
When I think about this, I imagine that some planet out there is at the same stage we are and calls our planet something completely different. We’ve detected other planets like ours that are bigger so why not lol
I literally have a hard time breathing when I try to picture in my mind how Big our universe is and I honestly don't believe we really even have scratched the surface of how it works....
We haven't even scratched about 0,00001% if we're being honest. The universe is still practically unknown to us, and I unfortunately believe it stays that way.
Our universe could be a black hole. Considering hydrogen and helium were the first elements to form. Mostly everything that is matter is from those elements. And we know stars are made up of it. If a star collapsed, I think it’s possible the elements could reform in the infinite expanded space inside
There is our observable universe about 14billion light years in radius. And outside that we have no idea how huge probably infinite. Anyway as far as exploring our observable universe, I watched a video that said if the universe was like all the ocean on earth we have only really looked at about the amount that would fit in a water tank
If we still don’t understand what’s in the deepest parts of the oceans on earth the I believe all we see are pictures of the universe but dont have a clue what really happens
I will never ever get over how simply massive the universe is.. distances & numbers are almost incomprehensible.. I believe this universe is teeming with life.. it almost feels impossible for it not to be.
I think about this all the time too. It's just my personal opinion but for me, I'm almost 100% sure that there has to be other species, other life forms out there. I have a hard time believing that there's no life outside of our own planet.
@@kwando472 Lol, comparatively speaking it is. I assume your talking about sub-atomic and atomic, molecular and wave level, then it can be argued that at any point in space there is something. However lets talk about tangible substance, see the reference attached: so all of the matter in the universe would fit into about 1 billion cubic light years, or a cube that's approximately 1,000 light years on each side. That means that only about 0.0000000000000000000042 percent of the universe contains any matter. The universe is a pretty empty place! I got this from a particular website but similar references can be found all over the web.similarily for your argument: Space is not empty. A point in outer space is filled with gas, dust, a wind of charged particles from the stars, light from stars, cosmic rays, radiation left over from the Big Bang, gravity, electric and magnetic fields, and neutrinos from nuclear reactions.
Could you please give melodysheep some credit for the music at least? I think you used his videos as an inspiration and you have done a great job with the visuals.
@@aswingnath4257 It's from Melodysheep videos, one of the song is called "The Rising Dawn Bellows Like Thunder". If you enjoy space videos I highly recommend you to watch these 2 videos (they are like part 1 and part 2 about the universe): 1. "Melodysheep - Timelapse of the entire Universe" (which covers the time from the Big Bang to present days) and 2. "Melodysheep - Timelapse of the future" (which covers from present day to the end of the universe) These are literally the best 2 videos ever made about the universe and the music is one of the best (there are links in the both videso to their music tracks), you will have chills while watching. You will have a soul orgasm while watching them, I'm not even joking!
It would seem the Milky way may well have been underestimated, it may well be as large as 300 000light years across due to some new studies, making it the largest galaxy in our local group. Hard to get a real accurate estimate on the Milky way however due to us being inside it.
Loved the video. Until the mid 17's the Milky Way was considered to be the universe. Then Andromeda was discovered and the universe was understood to be so much more. Then surprise! New technology discovered the universe housed countless galaxies and stars. And we get to enjoy these discoveries. I never get tired of watching RU-vids about the universe and it's wonders.
Johanna….17’s ????? Milky Way??????…….in the 17’s women were regularly barbecued live as witches!! The pope certainly wouldn’t have released the Milky Way to the peasants!!
@@joejankovics3863 Don't think the Pope back then was interested in Astronomy. He was too busy performing appalling deeds in the name of God. The nits were too dumb to know if they were witches they would have had the magical power to escape the situation and punish their abusers. Violence against women never runs out.
@@johannapetroff8459 amen sister!! Johanna….I don’t want to sound crass just sympathetic!! No we’re not kin but in a way you are a sister! Stay well…Stay happy…..
Imagine how many Earth like planets with their own civilizations and Animals are in those Galaxy’s it’s mind boggling . If u think we are alone in this infinite universe u are very short minded
Even if at this moment we're the only technological civilization in our galaxy (which I doubt), there are so many galaxies as to make it nearly certain there's another one elsewhere. Unfortunately, other galaxies are so far away we'd never know it. Fortunately, we're in a major galaxy so there's a good chance we could receive a message from another civilization.
No, just able to look at it from more than one angle. We don't know is the thing. Until we do it is silly to fantasize about this. People used to think different humans lived in the sea. Then they thought they lived on the sun and all the planets. We have a very old tradition of projecting ourselves onto the unknown. Earlier we thought large people lived on mountains and caused everyting from weather to bad luck. We called them gods. Some of us just don't do that and instead just wait to see what we actually find without expecting anything in particular. But we need one more sample. Just life somewhere. Anywhere. We can't predict anything at all until we do. A sample size of one is not a sample size. The only thing we learn from that is that this one thing is possible. But anything is possible. #1 question to me is if life can develop on tidally locked planets, and we don't know yet. Because if it can then most life in the Universe will be there. 90% of stars are red dwarfs = 90% of life lives in orbit around red dwarfs = 90% of life lives on tidally locked worlds. They are very different than earth. They can't help but be. Put the earth in orbit around a red dwarf, making it tidally locked, and it will become radically different rather quickly too. Extreme temps at the focus + extreme weather along the terminator + permanent darkness and cold on the dark side = most life in the Universe is aquatic and bioluminescent/blind. Because it'll probabkly mostly have to live on the dark side of tidally locked planets. That's an example of a prediction we actually can make. At any rate if we can find life on just one such planet. Yellow dwarfs are rare = earth-analogs are rare. We already know that for a statistical fact. Projecting earth life as the norm is therefore already nonsense. it is not. Well, unless life is impossible around red dwarfs. Then it might be. It'll still be rare though.
@@sandal_thong8631 message……like what?? How would anyone know?? Do they speak American?? Message 1. Goes……fire up the bbq….we’re coming….we don’t want granny, too old!! AND we don’t eat horse!!…..
@@politicallycorrectredskin796 Bub……it’s hypothetical, we are guessing about everything!! Mind you, our science is in it’s infancy stage!! Dreams, awe, fear, nightmares, some more guesses,then some scientific laws which are holy today!!! BUT will wind up on a garbage heap real soon!! But the only notion of life we have is in the bathroom mirror!!
@@politicallycorrectredskin796 It's not silly to "fantasize" about this. You just use logic. The universe is very homogenous and infinitely large, the laws of nature are the same everywhere. So why would be more probable that we are this special unique thing instead of just another phenomen that is repeated throughout? We probably will never find this second sample, because distances are ridiculous, and the maximum speed is set, so even if the universe is popping with life, we'll be most probably isolated from it forever. But realistically, it's out there, and it was in the past, and it will be in the future. We're not alone. And we do not need red dwarves for this. 10% of infinitely large is still infinitely large.
Imagine alien beings from the andromeda galaxy can probably see our Milky way galaxy and wonder if there's intelligent life there too, just like we do. lol
It's beyond comprehension the vastness of the universe. Even our "cloest" galaxies are incredibly far away. I just wish we were capable of truly exploring it!
Dude…but we ARE exploring it right now!! BUT Jesus……surely you can’t mean physically!!! How old are you..exactly?? Time has passed you by ……get a giant tv and settle down in your wheelchair!!!
It would take something like 5 million years just to travel to the next nearest star, Alpha Centuri, flying at the typical speed of a commercial aircraft, approx 500 mph.
@@chrisholmes2525 Atheist scientists made up theories with no evidence is not science it is the biggest fairytale of all time. You need a good brainwashing to believe them.
@@brenthenderson3373 Whether you believe or not, doesn't change a thing. You will leave, He will still be there. Amazing you never knew the day u were born, neither the day of your departure but a fool says there is no God.
We have to listen seriously to lots of stars over time and on multiple radio frequencies, and look for laser light which can transmit more data. Massive payoff versus small effort.
Dude…a man has to know his limitations!! In business/finances/goals and even women!! Not everything is possible!! All this love, wonder, awe, beauty………just wait until we meet a malevolent nekkid alien!!
What I’d like to know is, what the hell is inside each of those galaxies? Is it possible that each galaxy contain planets and see if there are any type of life that exist? I’ve always wondered.
There certainly are many billions of planets and it's very very likely that many of them to have life, even intelligent life. But distances are so absurd that we will only be able to guess about it, probably forever.
O company of jinn and mankind, if you are able to pass beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, then pass. You will not pass except by authority [from Allah ].Quran 55 :33
"Twice as little"? Who says that instead of: "half the size", or "half as big"? Many descriptions in here were like that; it's very odd and confusing. Also, although these are nice, informative pieces about the neighbors, I have NEVER heard the Milky Way said to be 200K light years across (as you said it is); it is always said to be: ...well, "twice as little" as that! 😉
Gentlemen, the speed of light is 186,00 miles/second. That is 5.88 trillion miles per year. ~200 million Light years means, what you are showing us happened that many years ago. Don't know what would be happening there right now. Impossible to comprehend.
Why do you describe the Large Magellanic Cloud as "seven times as little" as the Milky Way? The phrase you want is "one-seventh the size". And you also said "twice as little". The correct phrase is half as large. Why would a science site incorrectly multiply before you divide in a description?
We are here but where is my mother who left this world called earth? In the star, or in another universe or galaxy or another planet after almost three-year have past since hr left for heavenly abode I remember everyday looking at the sky believing her soul is somewher abobe in the universe. I pray god to have a happy peace afterlife with everything you want
Why they look like they like it used to be one hell of a big thing and it exploded and now from far away looks like a bunch of dust is spinning around-the-clock
I don't know if this is a common thing or something you read in the news that tells you to look out for in the sky at night at certain times. I was at a music festival in rural Tennessee and a whole arm of the milky way was up there. It was amazing, I just laid there all night watching it. It was unbelievably amazing.
I noticed they don't put the Milky Way or equivalent dusty plane of the galaxy in star fields like Star Wars or Star Trek. Babylon 5 liked to use nebulae in the background of some of its shots.
Since I was in my elementary years, I am always fascinated and interested in learning about astronomy. Being able scientist/austronaut is my biggest goal but it was far from reality though it doesn't stop me from learning and discovering new things and ideas related to astronomy. Thanks to this video.
I think we watch videos like this because we sometimes so badly just want to leave this planet because of all the drama! lol I think we all know deep down that the Earth is doomed and NASA knows it! that's why they are trying to get to Mars all of a sudden? Is There seriously no way we can save our own planet? It's our biggest challenge for sure...
It's a human-social-economic problem. For instance we can't get rid of nuclear weapons until we have one-world government that would eliminate war, but step in where there's an attempted genocide or violent insurrection. I imagine it being similar to calling up troops to protect a civil rights march in Alabama. Next, we've been playing follow-the-leader so long and bowing before rich people, that we can't tell them, "NO," to ban coal in 20 years to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Y’all have opinions that are based on dreams!!! Certainly NOT facts!! UFO notions are just current wishes, NOT facts!! Colonists from earth heading into the cosmos?? NOT….again!!! But….something useful…….lower your head, then look around and clean up the mess we’re making of our environment!! WAY easier than hurdling toward some inhospitable planet!!
There is no way we are alone in the universe, I wonder how advanced in civilisation we are? As our technology continues to innovate maybe we will have alien like technology one day😮
Indeed. It's from the Melodysheep videos, if you haven't watch them I highly recommend them: 1. Melodysheep - Timelapse of the entire Universe 2. Melodysheep - Timelapse of the future
It is indeed an assumption, but there are some strong arguments that lead to this belief; when you look to the sky, you can see our Milky Way in the form of a long strip. This can imply that we're looking at a disk form, seen from the side. Furthermore, we can observe other stars and gasses move at differing velocities. This could indicate that they are moving in a circular motion around a central mass. This, along with the comparison of some of our Milky Way's features to spiral galaxies that we can observe, leads scientists to conclude that the milky way is a spiral galaxy. Of course, any images of the Milky Way taken from the "outside" found online are computer generated imagery.
Insufficient data. If we find an oxygen atmosphere around an exo-planet then that would be life. If we find pollution in the same atmosphere, then that would be intelligent life, like Romans smelting lead and silver. But what we really want is to receive a message from a technological civilization. That would be transforming and might help us survive.
An alien civilization might see the gamma ray flashes from our nuclear war, or its long-term pollution, and be sad we didn't live long enough to join galactic civilization and tell them how life evolved on our planet.
@@Heart-shapedBox What gender is God? The Bible calls him father, so you tell me. God is neither male or female. Father means he is the head. I don't know all the answers but I think 🤔I am close enough.
@@Heart-shapedBox Did your mother tell you to stop smoking Marijuana, and watching dumb sports and video games. Read the Bible you will learn something 🙏.
One thing to note is that we don't actually know the real shape of the milky way. It's a spiral galaxy, but it's hard to tell what type when you're part of it.

Just when I think I’m starting to understand bit more about how space works... I come across a video like this. The realization that I know very little is such a slap in the face. There’s always so much more to learn about! Thanks for yet another brilliant video! Love the channel 👍🏽
Think if we lived a billion years, we'd still barely scratch the surface. The universe is just too big for all to be discovered. It's great that wonderful RU-vids exist so we can enjoy the magic of space.
@@johannapetroff8459 fascinating stuff??? With you tube we get the dumbed down version of cartoons and photoshop crap! Interplanetary travel??? Meeting our alien buddies??? We’re WAY too frail for low/no gravity living! BUT WAIT!!!!! And I personally like this! When AI is developed, it will have a strong, mechanical structure. AND if we infuse our collective, good, useful, godless intelligence into it, then much like our newborn, send it out into the cosmos??? AI’S body/frame would be so much stronger than we’ll ever be!!

AND WE as good parents would see our seed thrive and go on, while living out our days until our home planet is destroyed by outer forces!
@@joejankovics3863 I think our planet will be destroyed by human ignorance long before external forces get us. But then again there is a chance we will wise up and treat the Earth with the respect it deserves.🌏
Compared to the life time of a human being, the universe with galaxies is so vast and appears endless. We can only wonder with awe and fear. Serious planning and actions are unthinkable .Filtering and summarizing with purposeful linkage to human survival will give a humanly relevant dimension to this channel.
