Brilliant delivery of a complex subject that has been researched to within a planck length of its life. Truly informative and entertaining in equal measure. Thanks, Nick
Wonderful presentations on the history of scientific discoveries on this channel! I'm very much looking forward to the next one. Keep up the great work!
Pretty sure its accidental I have been carrying my phone while walking and listening to RUclips when I checked it I saw I accidentally gave a thumbs down
Whoa whoa whoa! Telescopes are cool! There is something about looking through a telescope to see something in space that a picture of it will never give you. It’s a powerful experience.
The "Saturn would float in water" thing drives me insane :D That much water would easily become a star and the gravity and everything involved would annihilate Saturn in so many ways all at once.
How long will Saturn rings last? About as long as it will take for humans to get out to them and start taking "samples" of pure Saturn water for novelty items and the gravitation of all the ships messing up the delicate balance keeping them there.
The Foreskin Hypothesis has convinced me. Clearly this is what Saturn's rings actually are. It's all so obvious now. Also, I wouldn't have survived ten minutes in the 16th century. The world is a stupid place now, but it was somehow even stupider then.
@@guillll Not sure why it matters what people believe. As long as they don't force it on me, I know I don't care. And the only people forcing their views on me are people who believe the world is round.
Do you write these narratives? If so, awesome...write a book...or if you are reading from a book you wrote, what book? So well done, and the historical perspective is well woven into the story. That always gets lost. 👏
Thanks! Yes, I do write my own scripts. I have a background in history and I feel that how we learned the things we know is just as important as what we know. But I find it is actually quite difficult to tell the history of scientific discoveries, because scientists don't care about history. From their perspective, this makes a certain amount of sense; scientific ideas are only as good as the next observation, and if they're disproven, you have to throw them out. No point in dwelling on old ideas if they no longer work. But it makes tracing scientific hypotheses back into the past really frustrating.
Parallaxicality Ken Burns spoke at my graduation back in ‘97, and had a similar perspective on science. I think Chrichton did too. Having information is short sighted without knowing how the information was discovered. It’s a process and always will be. Keep it up! 🤟
I like your channel and this is a good video, but I am noticing a problem with the audio that I would like to point out as it seems to be common in your videos. Specifically, it sounds like you used a voice activated microphone or some software equivalent, leaving the first sound after a silent gap cut off and come in suddenly in the middle of a sound. There are ways of preventing such an audio glitch, but it would depend on what software and equipment you're using. I hope you'll be able to improve it... but if not, please don't let that keep you from continuing to make videos.
Most informative and enjoyable! This really shines light on so many of the mysteries, discoveries and little known but extremely intriguing features of Saturn and its rings. Thanks and keep up the great work :)
So goooood! :o The history on this one is really great, as it is a lot of fun to watch all these familiar figures argue over what the rings are. It's a good story. Your pronunciation of Huygens is still a bit inconsistent, but it's getting better! ;p Almost everything in this video was new information to me, with a few exceptions. I've been way more active looking into astronomy in the past months, so I'm learning a lot, but l feel like l will never be able to come close to all of your knowledge! Were you able to see the Super Blue Blood Moon? I happen to be on the wrong side of the planet, but l have no idea where you live.
Yup. No solar eclipses in northern Europe during our natural lifetimes, I'm afraid. At least we'll be able to see some regular lunar eclipses in July and January 2019, I think. The moon was really pretty to look at the day before yesterday, though. I should probably get a telescope :3
@@TheMaplestrip did you ever get that telescope? If not and you're still interested, I'd love to help you pick out the right one for you. I worked in education services at a planetarium for 3 years and do some (very basic) amateur astrophotography in my free time, so helping people get started in astronomy is sort of my area of expertise 🙂
'Then all the reindeer loved him."...You see, it is the little things like that, that make your channel very, very awesome. I know it has been overdone but maybe, when your feeling a little silly, you could take us down the quirky history of flat earthers...well, maybe not eh. Look, I am sure you have your own reasons for heading a successful youtube channel. Whatever they are, thanks. People like you must surly live in your hearts. You appear to have an enviable relationship with your ego. I will turn my envy into hard work. ttfn Chris.

1:28 Orbital speeds do NOT increase with the distance from the Sun, it decreases, but the angular momentum does increase. I guess Kepler's expression, "velocity increases in proportion to r" was his way of stating angular momentum increases? It's just very subtle and misleading. planetfacts.org/orbital-speed-of-planets-in-order/
They do increase in proportion to distance; the shorter the distance, the faster the speed. They do not, obviously, increase WITH distance, but I agree that was fairly ambiguous.
Love ur videos man. As a side note, I'm not easily shocked or offended. Lmao but the line about Christ's foreskin made me cringe. I shouldn't have to think about these things
I agree,.All these fanboys need to use just a little bit of skepticism ,.I mean seriously,.This guy could telll them ANYTHING and they'd eagerly believe,.Annoying
You are really committed to pronouncing Huygens' name the Dutchest way possible. I love it.
I love history and I love space. This channel is awesome for me.

This channel is an oasis.
Wow, that is a really accurate description, actually. I'm stealing that lmao

My second time watching, what a great video!
The "Saturn would float in water" thing drives me insane :D That much water would easily become a star and the gravity and everything involved would annihilate Saturn in so many ways all at once.
Even positing a stable ocean, Saturn is not homogenous. It's core would sink while it's volatiles would float, like any other gaint world.
@@thetrashman5252 also who knows how violently some of the substances - especially in Saturn's core - would react to a large body of liquid water
Another, excellent, production - well done.
How long will Saturn rings last? About as long as it will take for humans to get out to them and start taking "samples" of pure Saturn water for novelty items and the gravitation of all the ships messing up the delicate balance keeping them there.
22:00 makes a great "what is this?" picture to blow people's minds with.
Very interesting stuff, Nick! You’re a great inspiration to wanna-be astronomers like me.
“Double knob” is my new favourite insult AND compliment.

very nice bro
The grand duke of Tuscany looks like he has some royal blood in him.
One could say the rings of Saturn are not as interesting as the moons, what a fool. Thanks for changing my opinion!
I guess it's a good thing that I will die long before Saturn's rings do.
Would you please make these more frequently?
I will try.

No way does gravity explain the rings, or much else. Resonance conjures up electrical and magnetic phenomena.
