      @TheRogueWolf 6 лет назад +25

      Here's a funny idea: It might vary depending on the time of their year. If their night side was facing the galactic center, it's possible that it would be so bright as to effectively still be daytime; even if they were facing away, they'd have a sky like what we'd see if every star in OUR sky was as bright as Venus.
      But life? Probably not- such close proximity to other stars, their radiation and the energy from supernovas, would probably give life a really hard time.

    Every time I watch things like this I get dizzy at trying to comprehend the vastness of space. It really is mind boggling. Apparently the sky we can see with the naked eye represents a small circle on the edge of the Milky Way galaxy. Another interesting fact is that some astronomers aimed a telescope at one of the darkest patches in the night sky, the size of a small dot in the sky, and found that it contains millions of galaxies. Galaxies, not stars. I have no doubt that the universe is filled with life, and civilisations, but that we are all far too far apart from each other to ever have a chance of finding each other.
    This does not even take into account the time issues. The earth has been around for 4.6 billion years, the universe for 13.7. Humans have been capable of transmitting and receiving radio signals for 100 years or so. It's not just a question of aiming our signals and receivers at the right star system out of all the uncountable possible star systems that exist, but also doing it at the right time, that narrow window in which a civilisation could possibly have existed capable of sending out signals. What are the odds that we are pointing it at the right system at the right time? Those signals may have already passed us by millions or billions of years ago, or they may never reach us because the space in between us is expanding faster than the signal can travel. I doubt we will ever find other advanced life.

    • @jcxmotor5
      @jcxmotor5 6 лет назад

      To add to that, I think it's quite silly to think that advanced civilizations would rely on radio waves for communication. They would have needed to send the signal long before we even existed for it to reach us now, and assuming it hasn't been a constant broadcast, time it perfectly with our development, which they would have no idea about.

    Amateur here, but I'd have thought it fairly obvious that black holes with masses in the same ranges as large stars would behave similarly to those large stars, in terms of how they move thanks to gravity.
    A black hole with mass X has the same gravitational effects as a star of mass X at any point further from the centre than the star's radius. The density of the object only matters once you get close.

    I’ve always wondered what happens to a neutron star that’s rotation exceeds its gravity’s ability to hold it together (I’ve watched some videos about pulsars that rotate so quickly they’re actually wider at the equator)
    If it fly’s apart, what elements would result? Could we find neutron star clumps floating around

    • @GLaDTheresCake
      @GLaDTheresCake 6 лет назад +13

      From my understanding neutrons decay if they aren't paired with anything to stabilize them, so you can't find pure neutronic matter outside of areas with extreme pressure where they are kept together by extreme gravity such as a neutron star. So to answer your question, it would just decay into radiation when it flies off of the neutron star.

    • @beforethelightning9465
      @beforethelightning9465 6 лет назад +2

      I do believe there's a type of black hole that forms when a neutron star is spinning so fast that it bulges out, just a little beyond the critical radius to collapse, a Blitzar. I don't think a neutron star can spin fast enough to fall apart though. Maybe if it was nearing the speed of light or something...
      But if one did, I imagine it would be like firing a shotgun at a swarm of bugs, planets getting drilled left and right by ultra-dense, near-light speed projectiles across the galaxy.

    • @lejink
      @lejink 6 лет назад

      Before The Lightning I’ve heard it mentioned on this channel that there are neutron stars observed that are close to the rotation speed it would take to fly apart
      So it’s this very channel making me wonder this
      It’s only logical that it could only hold together to a certain point

    • @beforethelightning9465
      @beforethelightning9465 6 лет назад

      I mean, it sounds possible, just unreasonable... The initial formation conditions would have to be extreme, I think. Perhaps a hyper-giant star, already spinning fast (which may be why it's so big to begin with) then collapsing with the rotational momentum being conserved as it collapses into the Neutron star, which then brings it's outer layers near the speed of light. The problem is, would that be enough? Would a neutron star break at those speeds?

  • @thetommantom
    @thetommantom 6 лет назад

    So maybe it's like moons pulled towards planets. Pulling in more and more stuff until it gets so big it pulls everything in then starts fusing. Maybe the sun is the center of everything. Giving off energy that it consumes. Like here on earth the sun grows plants that decay into soil. At the same time water vapor might be pulled way by that energy being given off by the sun. At the same time the earth might pull stuff into it's atmosphere.

  • @pakidara2000

    I wonder if this flash is due to the sudden, and catastrophic, restructuring of the star's magnetic field as the core collapses immediately before the out layers decompress. I imagine the quick and violent change in matter of a collapsing core causing all sorts of havoc with a stars magnetic field. Considering that, I wonder what would happen to a star if its field were artificially stabilized throughout, and after, the transition.

    Does this mean there is some absolutely massive place out there in the universe where all the blackholes are slowly collecting and amassing? Like how smaller blackholes are thought to move towards the galactic core as they interact with other things etc, does this mean all the galaxies of the universe are also, slowly filtering down towards this central point? That surely must be an insane swarm of blackholes surrounding the largest one in existence? Which in turn, is slowly absorbing everything as it smashes galaxies apart, and growing and growing.....
    My bet, when a blackhole reaches a sufficent mass, it explodes like what we think of as "the big bang". I bet the universe is so unbelieveably massive that in relation, it's just a localized event. :P

    There are no theoretical limits on how 'small' a black hole can be, but there is a theoretical limit on how massive one can be. Although there is no theoretical limit on how small one can be, there are size limits to the stars that can become a black hole.... As there is no known mechanism for creating black holes other than star collapse, there is a theoretical limit on how small a black hole can be created.
    According to the late Dr. Stephen Hawking, 'virtual' particle pairs are created near the event horizon and can be ejected radially along the poles of rotating singularities. We have already observed X-rays emitting from what we believe are black holes, and awarded Hawking for his predictions.
    As no such dark matter / dark energy has been observed, the race is on to explain the unorthodox rotation of galaxies and other-than-expected rate of expansion. Quantum Mechanics is boasted to be the most powerfully predictive tool Science has...but it doesn't predict very much at all.

  • @Tokahax
    @Tokahax 6 лет назад

    As an expert armchair physicist, I reason the flash is likely due to a Decrease in energy emission from the dying star, thereby exponentially decreasing the force exerted on the surrounding gas cloud allowing low-velocity material to uniformly slam into the surface of the star and producing a flash that blasts inward and outward, illuminating the rest of the gas cloud and kicking a final spark into the supernova main explosion at time of neutron star formation. Note: not an expert armchair mathematician.

    I have a question to throw out there:
    What do you call heat loss which is other than radiative heat loss?
    I'm asking this question because folk have been using, 'radiative heat loss' to describe heat loss in space as if it is an accelerated form of heat loss..
    The facts is that all heat loss is radiative, just as all heat gain is also radiative heat gain. If heat loss occurs using the radiative acceleration of conduction or convection then that is more properly described as accelerated, radiative heat loss.
    In other words, when you hear, 'radiative heat loss', read; heat loss. By the same token, when you hear, 'deep space', probs they are taking about cis lunar space and not deep space.
    One more thing: 4k space is the same as infinitive hot space. Assigning a temperature to nothing is silly. For, '4k space', read; space.

    In introduction to orbital physics one will learn Force of gravity = G m1 m2/R^2. That is, multiply your masses, times the relatively small gravitation constant, divide by the distance squares, and there you have it, force of gravity. So why would a black hole with mass similar to the sun exert any more gravity?

    • @draenthor
      @draenthor 6 лет назад +1

      Black holes don't actually have more gravity than a star of similar mass, it's just that you can get a lot closer to the center of a black hole than you can the center of a star. A black hole with the mass of the sun would have a radius of just 3 km, compared to the sun's radius of 695,508 km. If the sun were replaced with a black hole of the same mass, the orbits of the planets would remain unchanged, but the force of gravity would continue to increase as you got closer than the 695,508 km, where you would previously hit the sun.

    I know this question is probably basic to you guys but how is a black hole made and what are they made up of?

    • @gunslinger2566
      @gunslinger2566 6 лет назад

      They are made from really big stars, which are mostly hydrogen, fusing hydrogen into heavier and heavier elements until iron. Iron takes more energy to fuse than it creates so fusion stops. Without fusion pushing everything out, all that hydrogen and everything else collapses in, due to gravity, into a single tiny point, a singularity.

    Seriously guys, what about that hole in the Soyuz, you just keep ignoring it.
    You're one of the very few folks unbiased enough to end most of the speculations.

      The air leak was sealed quickly by Russian cosmonauts, that's not the point. Someone deliberately (!) did this hole and no one's sure why.

      No one did it on purpose,. It's completely rational, and extremely likely it was a micrometeorite. SMH. Not everything is a conspiracy lmao.

      Scott Manley is good but it's more of a nerd stuff while SciShow is more mainstream. It's just weird how they cover regular EVAs but refuse to even mention probably a single most mysterious accident in the ISS history.

    Could a smaller black hole be ripped apart into not a black hole by a passing larger black hole?

    What if dark matter is nothing more than a bunch of small black holes?

    • @Spartan0430
      @Spartan0430 6 лет назад +1

      that's pretty much been ruled out, the majority of matter is dark matter so if it was all (or just mostly) black holes the effects of such would be fairly obvious and potentially catastrophic. even if they were small.

    • @Prometheus2508
      @Prometheus2508 6 лет назад

      I suspect black holes to be a component of the missing matter problem. These old "primordial black holes" might start chipping away at the 70% of matter unaccounted for, perhaps alongside sterile neutrinos and other options.
