- Dive into the mysteries of our galaxy with "The Fermi Bubbles: Our Galaxy's Strangest Feature." Uncover the enigmatic structures and explore the fascinating science behind this cosmic phenomenon.
When you ask if we would like a video on a topic you should already know the answer is gonna be yes
Simon: "Do you want X or W topic?
The Community: "Yes"
Correct.
@@BallisticDamagesoh good, it's not just me 😂 /s
Supermasive black holes? Dark matter? All day? Sign me up.
yes! supermassive whack-a-mole!!
Yes. We all want a video on our super massive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way.
Silly question really, Fact Boi...
I know right!? The answer to that question is always yes, no matter the subject. However, this is even more obviously interesting than most!
Best new Simon channel for sure

Feels like some clips weren't edited in where they should have been. For example; 10:39
Woukd love a vid about sgr A*
The editing on this video is atrocious. Simon is cut off mid-sentence, or even mid-word, like a half dozen times.
Sorry, but the editing on this was schizophrenic at best .. and really thanks so much for letting us all know that 1% = 1/100th (7:48).
I would imagine that they are sustained from the jets of plasma that shoot away from the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy.
1:10 - Chapter 1 - What are Fermi Bubbles
4:30 - Chapter 2 - An exceptional phenomenon
10:05 - Chapter 3 - Some theories on causation
do a video on why scientist believe dark matter is real rather then thinking our understanding of gravity is wrong
If I recall from one of Simon's "Mass Extinction Events" videos, one of them was hypothetically caused by a gamma ray burst directly hitting Earth. What if the Fermi Bubbles were the remnants of this? It would seem that the Bubbles formed WAY LONGER than 25,000yrs ago, given their drastic yet gradual decrease in velocity (speed of light, to now 1%). I would be very curious to see if Earth was ever in its outer-most path.
A mass extinction takes a while, tens of thousands of years. A gamma ray burst would happen fairly instantly and even wipe out bacteria.
Best new, old Simon channel for sure
Loving this new channel. Simon is the Voice of knowledge on RUclips
The Great Attractor. Plz
🙋🏽♀️ Um, video on our Supermassive Black Hole please
Who ever edits the videos on this channel isn’t doing a good job, I’ve noticed cuts are cutting before you finish a word or sentence, this isn’t the only video I noticed either, it’s on other videos on this channel, I’ve never seen this issue on any of your other channels
"Great orbs of fire and nuclear fury.." there is no fire in space, there is no fire in stars, you need an atmosphere for fire to exist.
With so many channels I honestly don't know why Simon doesn't do a much better job of advertising the fact. He doesn't have a channel list on any of his channels nor an up to date on his video description if at all. He'd get so many more subs if he bothered.
Also, he never announces when he starts a new channel, they just randomly appear in the suggestions.
@@MatthewTheWanderer a few don't even appear there. I found out about his new science channel and space channel on his discord. Seems mad as he's got a fair number of people who will watch pretty much everything he does but?
"Astrophysics everybody. It never disappoints." Simon, speaking the truth!
The Fermi bubbles remind me of p orbits in atoms.
Simon has been very busy lately. He’s been all over my feed. Not that I’m complaining.
And another new fact boy channel. And likely another new FAVORITE fact boy channel ❤❤❤
He’s got the RUclips algorithm in his clutches😊😊
10:37 "that would have required our super massive black hole to be tens of but" -ts
What? Anyway, he did make a mistake there.
Is Simon trying to beat Jacksucksatlife's youtube play-button world record?
Our galaxy has bubbles. We have no idea how they got there, what caused them, if they'll disappear, if they'll stick around, if other galaxies have them, why they're there. But, hey, who doesn't like bubbles.
My personal thought when seeing these for the first time when they were announced about a decade ago "that is what a flame does in zero G." I'm not suggesting it is on fire or anything like that in the case of the bubbles but their shape might just mean this is the standard form of energy takes when it is not gravitationally bound to into the teardrop shape like flames on earth are or having enough mass to force itself into a spherical shape like a star. This is probably just how that energy dissipates each time the Supermassive Black Hole after the plasma jets stop firing. It's rounded near the outer facing edge because it is more rarefied, tapered near the galaxy facing edge because of the mass of the Supermassive Black Hole forcing it to hold it's shape and a weak funnel like motion, and widests just above its central point because that is currently where the terminating end of the Jets are roughly around causing the most ionisation. I suspect if we watch these over thousands of years they will get longer and thinner and will eventually separate and look like they are drifting away from the Galaxy until they are too dispersed to detect anymore. I would also guess that if we had more sensitive equipment we could probably detect a "hazier edge" to these bubbles and they'd look a little less uniform since we are probably just barely seeing these structures at our current level of technology. The bubbles probably also "rain" their energy and ionised gases back to the Galactic disc kind of like a Galactic version of the water cycle just with (mostly) energy particles/waves instead of matter.
Additionally the mention of metals bouncing around inside the bubbles gives me the impression of magnetic fields produced by a dynamo. Though I don't have any speculative theories on this beyond that is was a Supermassive Black Hole's magnetosphere looks like when matter and gas interact and get trapped in their system. Since anything near the equator of the black hole would be forced in the accretion disc shape that forms around black holes when it gets too close.
Or who knows... maybe our black hole just had a REALLY bad case of gas and simultaneously burped and farted out these clouds LMAO
🥳 Welcome to the party! I posted this already, but we've clearly got the same perspective...
It's the galactic manifestation of a polar magnetic field, we call it a Z-pinch. Electromagnetism scales much like biology, the micro level mechanics of the atom translates to the galaxy.
Obviously the visual observation won't be exactly the same, same reason I mention biology, considering how a water bear would consider one droplet as the entire universe, imagine how different life would if the air was so dense that humans have to swim everywhere, again - different mechanics at different scales.
Instead we should apply the behaviour of the universe to help us understand the behaviour of the atom. Fractals, fractals, fractals.
Dark matter is a lie, that force "we can't see", apart from the visible spectrum, what else is travels through everything at the speed of light?
Black holes are not physical bodies, instead they are the lack thereof. The "absence of mass" / "the vacuum" is in itself an "energy" potential. Scientists have observed this experimentally too, vacuums produce quantum fluctuations.
Knowing you understand, I can elaborate even further, that the entire universe is just made up of waves within waves, magnetic waves that interact with the available mass, when a wave interacts with a medium it tends to resonant. The earth's core, made up of liquid metal, resonates to the sun, the sun to the galaxy, the galaxy to its "black hole", the black holes to the great attractor, and the great attractor to the multiverse gods. 😂
Really? Another channel? They are almost the same. Starting to unsubscribe from all but 1 or 2. Sorry Simon (not that you give a F or read comments). But, you’re over doing it. Bye
Every week I find a new graphics channel lol. What doesnt Simon talk about??
Should you make a video about the massive black hole in our galaxy? Considering this is a space channel and that is one of the top 5 most concerning/interesting/relevant space topics, I’d say yes…
Omg, a new Simon Whistler channel‽‽‽ Fuck yes!!!
first
On the Fermi bubbles containing significant amounts of "metals", do you mean metals in the common sense of the word, or in the astronomer sense of the word, which basically means anything heavier than helium I think.
Orientated or oriented? The Electric Universe has a potential explanation for the Fermi Bubbles in a video from 9 years ago involving Birkeland Currents and a Z pinch where Sagitarius A is, much like the Z pinch we see along the currents where stars are created.
Lol, I was going to ask about "orientated vs oriented," too. I'm pretty sure "oriented" would be better or more correct.
You mean you guys made an astrographics channel and no one told me? XD
Super excited for this, the space episodes of geographics were some of my favorite
Yaay!! A separate channel for space ❤ 🚀🌌 Simon, you scratch every itch 😂
The things we don't know are wild ❤
Give us the super massive black hole video. Please and thank you.
I always thought Fermi bubbles was when you fart and pooh at the same time.
Ummm a quasar when the galactic nucleus was active.
Yes we do want a video on SMBH at the centre of our Milky Way
Is the galaxy not 100,000 light years across?
Make a video about Bootes Void. I hear Uranus has got nothing on that gape.
If we can find the owner, do you think they'll let us keep them?
Go go Astrographics (in the power rangers theme)
I would love to see a video on different theory’s of faster then light travel if there are any
I'd be keen on seeing a video about white holes (or even wormholes).
Black--hole! Black--hole! Black--hole!
Love this channel! Keep the content coming
THANKS Keep them coming :)
Do a video on Sgr A* and the G2 cloud.
The halo was activated o.o
Black hole video please.
Agree with kitty on this one
Little known prediction: In approximately 3 years all RUclips videos will be hosted by Simon.
This unoriginal "joke" has been going around for YEARS by now! It's not like he buys other people's channels, therefore at best the percentage of videos hosted by Simon would be much higher in the future, but he'll never host them all, even if that was remotely possible.
I never hear about yobba rays anymore. When I was a very young kid, there was a programme called Space Patrol. When the galosphere crew was doing the checks for take off,one of Huskys' jobs was to turn the yobba rays on. They must have used them all up, I guess?
Yes do the black hole 😂
Easy explanation for the Fermi Bubbles is that our galaxy want to be cute and it's pulling it off very well so let's all enjoy our cute Milky Way Galaxy Bubbles :)
Will speak about the Fermi bubble and where is coming from in few days. Keep up the good work 👌
Nutz? 🥜
Separate video would be gr8, thx
wierd..
Fun fact? The modern crocodile as a species predates the estimated Fermi Bubble formation by roughly 31×....
more please
This is interesting.
WOw???
A video about any supermassive black holes by you? Hell yes,please ^^
Honestly do we need another Simon whistler channel at this stage? There so many I can't keep track of them.
Yes. We do.
The same shape - an hourglass with a ring around the center - is seen in an electron orbital, in supernovae and in galaxies. There must be a fundamental rule governing these phenomena that applies across scales.
True.
Cool. Ty
It's the galactic equivalent of a polar magnetic field, we call it a Z-pinch. Electromagnetism scales much like biology, the micro level mechanics of the atom translates to the galaxy.
Obviously the visual observation won't be exactly the same, same reason I mention biology, for instance, a water bear would consider one droplet as the entire universe, imagine how different life would be if the air was so dense that humans had to swim everywhere, instead we're large enough to build boats that float atop the water. Again, different mechanics at different scales.
Instead we should apply the behaviour of the universe to help us understand the behaviour of the atom. Fractals, fractals, fractals.

Black holes are not physical bodies, instead they are the lack thereof.
The "absence of mass" / "the vacuum" is in itself an "energy" potential (The difference between a High and a Low - Pretty much the entire theory of entropy).
Scientists have observed this experimentally too, vacuums produce quantum fluctuations.
SIMON HOW, MY ENTIRE SUB FEED IS YOU NOW. THIS IS LIKE THE SIXTH CHANNEL OF YOU IVE FOUND.
So if we can harness this energy and send it into the flux capacitor we can have reliable electric cars
The music is distracting and doesn’t fit with the subject 😐
Disagree
Yet another simon channel, 😂😂
