Baby step, maybe? Depends on the quantity of water they'll find and how easy it will be to obtain. More energy-efficient ways to produce hydrogen from it would help too. Anyway, you'd have to bring truckloads of stuff first to get anywhere. Wait isn't that where For All Mankind episode 3 starts? :P
In grade school I had a teacher that didn't understand the sun was never going to be directly overhead, and kept taking us outside at 12pm to see our shadows disappear. Thank you for covering topics that are clearly misunderstood by many.
@BS-jn2fj Most Grade School teachers know very little about science. Their speciality is language and numeracy. Get you to reading and writing and basic arithmetic. Hopefully by the time a child finishes 3rd grade they are well on their way to those basic skills. So many misconceptions are had by so many people... and they never grow out of them.
If I wanted to teach elementary kids that the sun never went completely overhead, I'd build a simple model involving a tilted globe and a light and show how light hit the surface throughout the year. If I felt very industrious, I'd drill a hole at the city where we were located and insert a camera, showing them what the sky looked like from the surface.
I am in awe of Neil's mind. He explains these complicated subjects so that ordinary people like me can understand. I often find myself wanting to holler "wow," halfway through his explanation. As someone else makes a statement, his mind is already thinking through every possible angle of it. Thanks for all of the great content. I guess I need to become a Patreon.

India's ISRO first discovered water on the Lunar south pole and Chandrayaan 2 mission was dedicated for its research. Unfortunately the rover crashed while landing on moon as one of the parameter of the lander malfunctioned confusing the autonomous software onboard. Chandrayaan 3 has been launched with the corrections required on the software algorithm to accommodate wider range of parameter inputs. The fuel tank has enlarged and the landing gear is designed to absorb greater forces at 3m/sec. India has also signed Artemis accord for the same purpose.
Question: What happened to the China original first landing video on the dark side of the moon? Also, what happened to the cosmonauts' monkey video that went through the bow shock? Both videos seem to have disappeared off the internet. 😳
@@ChandranshuDwivediThere was these original historical vids posted on RUclips long ago, but now it's vanish. Both particularly has proven many theories, and scholar scientists either ignore or refuse to discuss it. Instead, we are consistently redirected to older content, similar to what was shown in the, "Do you REALLY think we didn’t land on the moon?!" video. With RUclips enforces its shadowban policy, it constantly feel like we're living in a dictatorship country.
If all things go well, Indian mission Chandrayan 3 is going to be the first exploration mission landing directly into the lunar south pole region. This scheduled to happen around 23-24 August 2023.
I only recently discovered this channel but I'm addicted to watching your content. I love it, great job guys, thank you. You make the most complicated things so simple to understand and you are blowing my mind.... Daily! 👊😎
Not sure when NASA is sending the Artemis 3, but currently ISRO's Chandrayaan 3 is already on it's journey to the South pole of the moon and is estimated to land there on August 23
High Noon made perfect sense in the Old West. It was a way to mark a specific time of the day, when the sun was at its highest. Clocks meant nothing in those dusty western towns.
I feel like i have a big heart and get emotionally attached to these star talks because of how they discuss a possible PLAN for a potential path for future space needs. The logistics just get me going :D
This part about polar night and day (4:00-4:26) is completely wrong. In the Arctic Circle, you have exactly one day a year when the sun doesn't rise and one day when it doesn't set (it just approaches the horizon but doesn't pass it), but the rest of the year you have normal nights and days with sunrises and sunsets. Going from the Arctic Circle towards it's corresponding pole, the number of days a year the sun doesn't set (or rise) increases, but the only place where you have one 6 month day followed by a 6 month night is only exactly on the north (or south) pole.
3:37 So, the highest the sun can appear above your horizon is equal to ninety minus your degrees north or south latitude, or, alternatively, how many degrees you are located either south or north of the closest geographic pole.
I didn't read through all of the comments, but hopefully I can add to the understandings of sunlight at the Arctic [or Antarctic] circle. In spring and autumn, their day length is pretty much the same as elsewhere. Of course on either Equinox, they also have about 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness. Like all sinusoidal relationships, it's a smooth transition. The wave amplitude in hours is larger than anyplace between it and the equator, and smaller than that for locations between it and the pole. Keep up the great explanations. I love these.
I'm on the 1st season of For All Mankind and they claim there's water on the moon where if we were to build a base on the moon we can use that water for fuel to get to Mars and beyond
wellll it's too bad that he Has some FLAWED opinions. such as his belief that climate change is caused by air pollution.! co2 is PLANT FOOD. co2 is Heavier than nearly all the other gases in the atmosphere. at present, the amount of co2 in the atmosphere is NOT enough to produce greenhouse affects. d
Could you explain a bit more the picture of an astronaut on 8:47. Unless this is an illustration, what is illuminating him? Shouldn't he also be pitch black? I assume this picture wasn't taken with a flash because it would illuminate his shadow. What is reflecting light on him?
@10:00 your explanation about camera and aperture really up to the par, if you are science educationalist and on a mission to explain science to people and that's what you can do? So, you talking about videography but saying about photography, in video it is like continuous photography, but in photography once aperture closes down it doesnt open again. Anyway, the surface of the moon reflects lot of light, the video camera shutter speed or say continuous still photos, is very high to capture lot of moon surface reflected light, but the star lights also coming to camera film/sensor, in order to see stars you have to focus camera on the sky
There is a complication that works much in our favor. The Lunar South Pole is at the bottom of a very large crater (South Pole-Aitken basin). The rim nearest Earth can take its name from the nearest named crater (Scott A Mastiff). From its south edge you have line-of-site to Earth 90% of the time, direct sun about 95% of the time, and line-of-site into the deepest polar craters 100% of the time. This is a gift from the gods.
Once again, great video! I have a question though... How do we measure a point to be the north/south pole of the moon? Is it somehow relative to the earth's north/south poles? I had learned that the orientation of the orbit of the moon is not fixed in space but rotates over time due to apsidal precession. So how do we agree on definite points for north/south pole on the moon?
India's Chadrayaan 3 is going moon's south pole in 3rd or 4th week of August 2023. It has a lander and if they will succeed in landing the lander then it might just expedite the discovery
I love you vids Neil and Chuck. It's rare but occasionally you slip up and contradict yourself though. In this video you taught us the sun is never straight up above us. This was an interesting lesson that most people don't think about or realize. However you made a statement in this video saying "At noon all the shadows disappear because the light is coming straight down." If this is true then the source of the light, a.k.a. the sun, would be straight up which we now know is not true. Sorry just had to point that out. Keep up the great work guys love you both. Neil and Chuck are the perfect pair to do these educational vids. Always learn something new and always entertained and laughing making it even more interesting and easier to remember.
Will modern cameras be able to take photos of man on the moon with stars in the background when we get back there or is the brightness of the surface of the moon to great?.. Not a Patreon member but i'll shout you both a coffee ☕☕. Thanks for making Science easier to understand and entertaining 🧡👍
I was always told as a kid that "high noon" or "12 o'clock high" actually came from clocks. At noon (or any 12, including midnight) the clock hands point straight up.
The absence of an atmosphere also means that water's vapor pressure is quite low there. Probably, the water sublimates there. The regolith is quite porous, though, making it act like a vacuum getter to trap the water.
Moon sponge! Just give it a squeeze. If only. Wonder how much the first bottle of moon water will go for back on earth? I know bottled water is expensive but we're gonna take it too a new level here!
@@daviddavids2884 Vacuum is the absence of matter; the presence of porous stones means it is NOT vacuum. In fact, the presence of water vapor also means it is not vacuum.
Mr. Tyson, could you explain or expound upon available information about Cruithne? I feel surprised that more people don't know about this. Plus, I'm not an astrophysicist so much of the language used seems a bit confusing. Kinda like trying to explain measurements in moles to people that aren't chemists. Specifically, I'm not understanding about the orbit cycle. This is very foreign info to my brain.
And more complicated yet, you don't get one long day and one long night and that's it, unless you're at the actual north or south pole. (Talking Earth, again.) When you've just crossed the arctic/antarctic circle, You get a couple days around summer solstice where the sun gets nearly down to the horizon at midnight and then just goes up again. After that, you have days where the sun doesn't go down until around midnight and comes right up again an hour or two later. The daylight gets shorter and the night gets longer, until the autumn equinox, when it's about equal, then the nights start getting longer and longer as the autumn progresses, until the sun's just doesn't actually clear the horizon for a few days around the winter solstice. Then you get days where the sun's just up a couple hours around noon, and the days slowly get longer and longer throughout the spring until equinox again, when it's about equal, and then they keep getting longer until the middle of summer again. Even that's an oversimplification - there are places in Alaska that have the sun not go down for a month in the summer, but still have a couple of hours of sunup even at winter solstice, which I assume is because planetary orbits are really complicated and the orbit is not circular, I don't know it's complicated is my point.
I literally have: Both a photo showing Brian using Brent's admin credentials to do his job, even though we both had our own admin credentials for the network. As well as a photo of Brian's Office Communicator / Lync status where he states "The Penguins are Attacking." That was what, 2016ish? :P
So, Neil, I have a degree of insight into New York City's problems to help out. Didn't know you and Chuck had it so bad. If in NYC, near XMAS the noon sun is only 26 degrees, that means it's always freezing outside. Because freezing is 32. But if you get somebody with a PhD college degree who gives the city the 3rd degree interrogation, that would warm things up, so their pipes won't freeze - right?
@@devkumarpatel1012 yep. I hope it is successful too. I just can't shake the image of the Proton rocket inverting itself after launch and exploding because a technician installed a gyro upside down (which was supposed to be impossible, but give a man a hammer and he'll make anything fit) 🤦♂️.
Wouldn’t light that hits Earth and bounces back towards the moon shine in those craters (especially the southern ones on the side that faces us) lighting it up like the moon does for us at night?
@@MarcelBal15 Just looked it up, the moon orbits at around 5 degrees. I just see it from the northern hemisphere so it looks like it’s more than that and I seriously doubt 5 degrees is enough to go into the bottom of those craters anyways. So you’re definitely right about there not being a lot of light coming from earth down there.
Yup, in an hour the sun's gonna be right up there. During "High" noon we're on daylight savings time. Also, my position in the time zone means the sun isn't there at noon. Pittsburgh is at -80 degrees, and that is 20 mnutes later. Also, the Analemma changes things up to 16 minutes plus or minus.
idk bout the sun but i am baffled by the moon.First of all i can see it up in the sky sometimes in the year during the day like 11am and yesterday it was up there like 6pm so i wonder in the meantime there where it is night do they see the moon and should they if i can see it too?The other weird thing i have noticed is that the brightest light next to the moon where they say it should be venera that is supposed to be closer to the sun that is behind us in that moment so how come we get in between if venera is closer to the sun....third weird thing sometimes the shadow of the earth on the moon is curvy like drBecky says toenail moon which kind of implies for rounded earth but sometimes the shadow is quite flat line and i know the actual shape is not perfect ball but i didn't think it is as flat as it looks the shadow on the moon.
The most southern point in Hawaii is 18 degrees north, not near close enough to the tropics. Even St croix, VI sits at 17.5 degrees. You'd think that 2-3 degrees is pretty close but it's 140-210 miles, which is 2-3 times farther than the Kármán line, i.e., edge of space.
@@KingCobbones hmmm.. I feel sheepish because I just realized that for some reason I've believed the tropics were between 15S and 15N, can't figure out why that was in my head? They say that the best thing about being shown you're wrong is from then on you get to be right!
honestly i think that when people are asked where the sun is at noon, most people point up just because it’s a simple answer that’s close enough and probably the answer the others are looking for in other words i think everyone may know mostly, they just cant be bothered
You forgot the mention here that unlike Earth, the Moon has almost no axial tilt, meaning no "seasons." This is why these cold traps can exist. If the Mon had a tilt, this effect wouldn't work. Same on Mercury in fact, where there might be even MORE water ice at the poles. Not that anyone's rushing to send astronauts there.
Even with the lack of atmosphere on the moon, the surface material of the moon crater should refract/reflect enough light from the Sun to allow light to interact with the low areas of the crater. Correct?
0:46 tell me about it, Neil! The ancient people, celebrated awareness, just like the snake on the head in Egypt, the Birdman in North America, the eye on the forehead in India. The rocks are carved, so that you can exercise your awareness, look at the stones!
The third eye doesn’t represent nature outside of human body it represents your last main pressure point is in the center of your head between your eyes and actually has nothing to do with being aware or awareness that miss representation of western ideologies. Third eye awareness actually comes black farmers form North Carolina not Hinduism or Buddhism
There may not be sunlight in the cold traps at the lunar south pole, but there would be light from distant stars as well as cosmic rays... Wouldn't they be enough to rid those cold traps of all their water?
Chandrayaan by ISRO is on the same mission.. n Indian scriptures have way more info on moon and it's qualities, effects, Indian astrology have some cool insights about moon n we fallow chandramaana a type of calendar based on moon movement
Can anyone please give me an answer to this question - I have even tried chatGPT which gives a different rediculous answer each time - this has had me wondering for years and I just wish I could find the answer - How far would you have to be from the Sun to experience gravity of 1G - assume you are in a rocket that is not in orbit & has thrusters to hold you at a constant distrance from the Sun. Also assume no gravity from any other object.
Do you think the Artemis III mission really is the next step to lunar colonization?
Unless a following mission finds out presence of water below the surface even at the equator, yes.
What happens if you fillup a certain area of moon with water? Or create a lab to create water and release to Moon surface? What happens if we do that?
Baby step, maybe? Depends on the quantity of water they'll find and how easy it will be to obtain. More energy-efficient ways to produce hydrogen from it would help too. Anyway, you'd have to bring truckloads of stuff first to get anywhere. Wait isn't that where For All Mankind episode 3 starts? :P

Nicely done again guys!! Good topic!!
This part about polar night and day (4:00-4:26) is completely wrong. In the Arctic Circle, you have exactly one day a year when the sun doesn't rise and one day when it doesn't set (it just approaches the horizon but doesn't pass it), but the rest of the year you have normal nights and days with sunrises and sunsets. Going from the Arctic Circle towards it's corresponding pole, the number of days a year the sun doesn't set (or rise) increases, but the only place where you have one 6 month day followed by a 6 month night is only exactly on the north (or south) pole.
3:37 So, the highest the sun can appear above your horizon is equal to ninety minus your degrees north or south latitude, or, alternatively, how many degrees you are located either south or north of the closest geographic pole.

Both a photo showing Brian using Brent's admin credentials to do his job, even though we both had our own admin credentials for the network.
As well as a photo of Brian's Office Communicator / Lync status where he states "The Penguins are Attacking."
That was what, 2016ish? :P
So, Neil, I have a degree of insight into New York City's problems to help out. Didn't know you and Chuck had it so bad. If in NYC, near XMAS the noon sun is only 26 degrees, that means it's always freezing outside. Because freezing is 32. But if you get somebody with a PhD college degree who gives the city the 3rd degree interrogation, that would warm things up, so their pipes won't freeze - right?
Unless... it's 26°C because metric system. Then it never freezes. Oh no, I've gone cross eyed.
You're forgetting that New York City has thousands of street corners, most of which are 90 degrees, so that should help keep things warm, right?
India (ISRO) already sent Chandrayaan 3 for the same purpose and will land on the south pole on 23rd August
If it doesn't crash like the last one. Too soon? Space is hard.
@@peterkallend5012 One can only hope
@@peterkallend5012 Harsh but true :-)
@@devkumarpatel1012 yep. I hope it is successful too. I just can't shake the image of the Proton rocket inverting itself after launch and exploding because a technician installed a gyro upside down (which was supposed to be impossible, but give a man a hammer and he'll make anything fit) 🤦♂️.
Yeah fingers crossed for successful landing!
Wouldn’t light that hits Earth and bounces back towards the moon shine in those craters (especially the southern ones on the side that faces us) lighting it up like the moon does for us at night?
It would be a pretty negligible amount of light I think
@@MarcelBal15 Just looked it up, the moon orbits at around 5 degrees. I just see it from the northern hemisphere so it looks like it’s more than that and I seriously doubt 5 degrees is enough to go into the bottom of those craters anyways. So you’re definitely right about there not being a lot of light coming from earth down there.
Yup, in an hour the sun's gonna be right up there. During "High" noon we're on daylight savings time.
Also, my position in the time zone means the sun isn't there at noon. Pittsburgh is at -80 degrees, and that is 20 mnutes later. Also, the Analemma changes things up to 16 minutes plus or minus.
Fast forward over the senseless advertisements and us an ad blocker, and this isn't a bad video at all!!
idk bout the sun but i am baffled by the moon.First of all i can see it up in the sky sometimes in the year during the day like 11am and yesterday it was up there like 6pm so i wonder in the meantime there where it is night do they see the moon and should they if i can see it too?The other weird thing i have noticed is that the brightest light next to the moon where they say it should be venera that is supposed to be closer to the sun that is behind us in that moment so how come we get in between if venera is closer to the sun....third weird thing sometimes the shadow of the earth on the moon is curvy like drBecky says toenail moon which kind of implies for rounded earth but sometimes the shadow is quite flat line and i know the actual shape is not perfect ball but i didn't think it is as flat as it looks the shadow on the moon.
The most southern point in Hawaii is 18 degrees north, not near close enough to the tropics. Even St croix, VI sits at 17.5 degrees. You'd think that 2-3 degrees is pretty close but it's 140-210 miles, which is 2-3 times farther than the Kármán line, i.e., edge of space.
Hawaii is indeed in the tropics because it is south of 23.5 degrees north latitude (Tropic of Cancer).
@@KingCobbones hmmm.. I feel sheepish because I just realized that for some reason I've believed the tropics were between 15S and 15N, can't figure out why that was in my head?
They say that the best thing about being shown you're wrong is from then on you get to be right!
@@JayBandersnatch"A... 15 degree per hour drift"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@ldmtagBut, east-west. 😂
honestly i think that when people are asked where the sun is at noon, most people point up just because it’s a simple answer that’s close enough and probably the answer the others are looking for
in other words i think everyone may know mostly, they just cant be bothered
Awesome explanation. Just saw India's successful landing on the south pole of the moon.
In some northerly places, there are two seasons: winter and August.
You forgot the mention here that unlike Earth, the Moon has almost no axial tilt, meaning no "seasons." This is why these cold traps can exist. If the Mon had a tilt, this effect wouldn't work. Same on Mercury in fact, where there might be even MORE water ice at the poles. Not that anyone's rushing to send astronauts there.
@12:55 is it geological ? are you sure? or Selene-logical or selenlogical.
"Astronauts are three guys who get high on the same capsule". ~Dick Cavett 1977
Of coarse we can't see stars on the Moon, because they're right here on Earth on RUclips, Neil&Chuck
Pink Floyd had a great Jazz song called The Dark Side of the Moon. They described it in a formatted and digestible time of the time.
Even with the lack of atmosphere on the moon, the surface material of the moon crater should refract/reflect enough light from the Sun to allow light to interact with the low areas of the crater. Correct?
chucks face would translate well into a muppet doll
0:46 tell me about it, Neil! The ancient people, celebrated awareness, just like the snake on the head in Egypt, the Birdman in North America, the eye on the forehead in India. The rocks are carved, so that you can exercise your awareness, look at the stones!
The third eye doesn’t represent nature outside of human body it represents your last main pressure point is in the center of your head between your eyes and actually has nothing to do with being aware or awareness that miss representation of western ideologies. Third eye awareness actually comes black farmers form North Carolina not Hinduism or Buddhism
I live in Wa State. We never see the sun. We just have Faith it is there.
You should talk about ISRO's Chandrayaan mission which discovered water on the moon .
Can we see everything that was left on the moon from the Apollo missions with the telescopes we have today. If not, when?
Not a word about india's chandrayaan 3 which will be landing (hopefully soft landing this time) at the south pole of moon....😮
The sun is right there ☝️🫵👈👉 all day
1:31 The animation is depicting wrong lines as 23.5⁰ N & S
There may not be sunlight in the cold traps at the lunar south pole, but there would be light from distant stars as well as cosmic rays... Wouldn't they be enough to rid those cold traps of all their water?
water VAPOR is not the same as liquid or solid water. in VACUUM, regardless of the temperature, water can ONLY be vapor.!!!!
Neil and Chuck for 2024
Chandrayaan by ISRO is on the same mission.. n Indian scriptures have way more info on moon and it's qualities, effects, Indian astrology have some cool insights about moon n we fallow chandramaana a type of calendar based on moon movement
Can anyone please give me an answer to this question - I have even tried chatGPT which gives a different rediculous answer each time - this has had me wondering for years and I just wish I could find the answer - How far would you have to be from the Sun to experience gravity of 1G - assume you are in a rocket that is not in orbit & has thrusters to hold you at a constant distrance from the Sun. Also assume no gravity from any other object.
Very interesting !!!
5:39... the moon has ring worm!
