This video is the exact kind of thing I’ve always wanted, unfiltered information about space. So many channels are amazing sources of info but put it through a “general public” filter which makes it hard to learn deeper aspects from the actual video. Thank you so much for filling this void in my soul that I needed
I agree. While it is very easy to find 'general public' basic channels for Astronomy & Astrophysics, it is more difficult to find something of a bit 'higher ambition', while still avoiding crude data, maths demonstration, etc. And this is a great balance i believe. At least it works for me too. And yes, the animations are awesome on that soft-spoken voice. More!
@@goergeskaplan I agree on this too, although I also believe that deep dives into the math and data, accompanied with explanations can teach us a lot too and give us the tools needed to dive into these sciences too
@@Arterexius Definitely, agreed. It is even paramount that there are some Math, raw data and references to original papers, researchs, etc. Tough part is to find the right balance for the largest audiance. Which should be a bit above your level and challenges you. And this channel delivers for me. Cheers
I majored in physics, did research in astrophysics, and now teach astronomy. I am astounded at the analysis in the video. I felt like I was back in undergrad quantum mechanics just recognizing enough concepts to keep it together and follow along. The mention of 4d space really made me chuckle because it kept piling on more and more amazing layers to the simulations that it really blew me away. Superb.
I'm just a civil engineer and a laymen when it comes to this sort of thing but I couldn't help picturing what all these fantastic graphic simulations would look like if they included the fact that the whole ballet is busy chasing the sun around galactic center at half a million mph - and I can't even fathom adding the galactic movement.
Agree. Enough detail that the reality is not diluted so much that it is illogical, but not so much that it is overwhelming. AWESOME visuals, and well explained.
First time viewer of your channel... What a fantastic video this was - very well organized and animated. I'd never heard of these "orbital gateways" but it really made this idea that Jupiter is the "vacuum cleaner" of the inner solar system much more intuitive. You earned my subscription today and I'm looking forward to browsing your older content and seeing what comes next!
Except that them are totally wrong. Try any gravity simulation, Jupiter doesn't grab, doesn't protect, doesn't make a shield for Earth, is the opposite. Jupiter's gravity works as gravity pull, not a shield. Shoemaker was just in trajectory.
As a history major, self-taught coder, and Christian, I can't help but be amazed that the simple laws of our universe give rise to such a beautiful system of protection. It's amazing to me to see the beauty and complexity of creation, so perfectly suited to us. (Or us suited to it as the case may be)
Wow, for me it was mesmerizing to see the simplicity of an explanation of something so complex as million-body simulation. Congratulations for all the hard work !!! The end result is marvelous.
In the first two minutes of this video you gave me a better understanding of asteroid tidal disruption than I've ever had before. You explained exactly why the fragments behave as they do and why it took two full orbits to impact Jupiter. Well done. I'm suitably impressed.
WOW. Your animations are incredible, especially since the manifolds potentials are always so pretty and their visuals give access to a lot of information about the topic at hand.
I follow a lot of space/science channels that at some point have tried to go over the same subject, but they always left me with more questions than answers. The details combined with the visual animations in this video was logical, easy to understand, and very pleasing to watch and listen to. In the end, I had no questions and instead gained fruitful knowledge, thank you!
One of the best, informative animations I've seen. Conceptualising Jupiters gravitational effect on comets as a gateway to the inner solar system is so interesting. A lot of visual information about space is presented in a 2D, top down way. This is amazing.
This is amazing. I have always heard the statement that Jupiter cleared out the solar system and that Jupiter protects earth from more but I never thought it was this beautiful. Math is amazing.
Same here. I was aware of the phenomenon, Jupiter acting as inner-solar shield, but had no real insights into its actual mechanisms. Great explanations and marverlous animations, this channel might be a gem. Cheers
All planets do it a bit. The big four are nice and big and create 4 layers of big shields. Mars also, but a lot less. If something gets through all of that, it still has to get past the moon which circles earth directly and frequently and takes a bunch of big hits itself. Seems that if we want to look for a planet that can sustain life, we need to be looking for systems with several big cleaners.
Earth is extremely lucky and beyond rare to not only fit the criteria for life but even on a solar system level is protected and sustained in order to produce life.
This is the first time I've ever seen an explanation of how Jupiter shields us from being hit. The gateway animation is very interesting, but I didn't understand how it occurs. i think you really need to explain that in more detail, and in layman's language, if possible!
You can’t get anymore laymen than this. What he’s explaining is essentially the 3 body problem. If you want a deeper understanding, you’d need to dive into the math. Any advanced orbital mechanics textbook on the Circular Restricted 3 Body Problem (CR3BP) goes into detail with the idea of manifolds and forbidden regions.
@@Kevin-kp8ds Thanks for listing the specific data to go in search of, should you be interested to pursue the subject in deeper detail. It is also too advanced for me too, but I still watched fascinated until the end and grasped as much as I could. ☺
@@OriginalOmgCowno it isn’t, and if you understood the maths behind it you could explain how it occurs to a child. Try not to trick yourself brother if you can’t explain to a kid it’s probs because its not understood enough
Oh my god dude I've always wondered how this actually works, but to see it delivered like THIS ALSO AND WITH CODE This channel will be in the science comm hall of fame
I just happened to discover this channel and the way you explain things about Jupiter is amazing especially with the animated graphics that compllement your exposé. I also second the comment by runninggag regarding your calm and clear voice.
Man all of these data reminds me a lot of the stock market data. Calculating and predicting masses. Amazing and it looks like a very high production video! You've gained a sub! Underrated channel!!
That's an instant subscribtion for me. I know these videos may take a while to be published but I don't care. The quality of everything makes up for it.
The visuals in this video are breathtaking. I couldn't follow everything you described (because I lack necessary knowledge) but I was mesmerized by the imagery throughout.
bro the tidal disruption animation already got me to watch more of your stuff! you and kurgezagt are feeding me these sciency content and im here for it ^^
I’m gonna be so honest and say I didn’t understand even half of what you said. This was just so over my head. But I loved it so much! It’s really an incredible video and you’re an excellent narrator! I still learned a lot, even if I don’t understand everything yet.
Great video! Just stumbled upon your channel, great work and presentation. Don't know if the excellent animations are yours, someone elses or soft extracts but they're awesome and complement very nicely the soft-spoken naration. Loved it, and subscribed. Will follow. Thank you. Cheers
These orbital mechanics are surprisingly comparable to electron orbits requiring specific energy levels to move an electron from one shell to another, specifically an electron volt. But considering how these gateways seem to have some amount of standard deviation, it makes me wonder if maybe it doesn’t necessarily take one electron volt for electrons to change levels, but perhaps a standard deviation exists that can allow for greater levels of manipulation of matter on that scale.
I'm a student studying astrophysics and this is the most beautiful science video on RUclips. If I had a source of income I would definitely support you on Patreon. Please keep spreading science until I graduate!
I love your videos. You put so much work into them and they break down really complex topics in a easy to understand/comprehend way. Great work. Is the full stack (editing, recording, research and such) done by you or do you have a team/hire out some things? (I ask to pass along the credit/praise if you have others involved).
I am very grateful that you shortly talked about the 3D mechanics, because as long as you didn't cover that I was watching the video with great scepticism
This channel is perfect for those with a bit of a background in physics or math. It really exposed something incredible about physics that I didn't know existed. I could never have imagined a reality like this in the solar system.
it's just so beautiful and poetic. Im no expert in astronomy nor physics, but it just seems so understandable thanks to the animations. Jupiter is a big bro to us, that's all I can say
I remember this event clearly, I was like 10 when it happened but I was already fascinated by astronomy and it was a big deal all over the news. There were no live streams at the time, but IIRC one of the major TV networks interrupted the regular program to cover the impact either as it happened, or as the impact sites rotated into Earth's view, i forget which it was but I totally remember switching off my SEGA to see the images. That event was like gasoline on the fire of my love for astronomy.

When you can’t actually explain how orbits work so you make up an imaginary force to cope
And the visualization of the centrifugal force looks like an up turned sheet, hmm🤔🤔
@@slenderman3310 It's a non-inertial frame of reference, there can be effective forces. Then you can solve for potential from F = -
