    The really unsettling things are when an item is a lot bigger than expected, and the picture is taken from how you'd see it in real life. Like over sized road side attractions, where it's a giant version of a normal sized thing and you're right by it. It's just unnatural and thus can be even horrifying
    Some of these are also more liminal, which summed up is an unsettling image implying human existence. Like, hit building and structures with no humans around, a sense of nothingness and not knowing what it's supposed to be. The two gl hand in hand in a way when done right.

    6:13 - As you said, our Sun is never going Supernova because it simply doesn't have enough mass to do so - it's not heavy enough. If by some miracle of physics it DID go Supernova, that render is STILL not what it would look like from Earth. The Sun would start to shrink down and then swell back up again in a rythmic way, each time getting brighter and brighter and turning from the orange glow we know to blue and finally the brightest white you can possibly imagine as the Sun got hotter and hotter (it wouldn't turn red like the video, because contrary to every graphic and colours on our taps red is NOT hotter than blue, it's the other way round). The pulsations in and out would get more and more rapid as it changed colour and then in one instant it would explode. In less than a second, what was once the surface (and entire inner contents) of our Sun will be all the way out as far as Saturns orbit. One second you'd be standing on Earth watching the sun change colour and the next second both you and the entire planet would be particles of dust and atoms flying past Saturn - which also wouldn't last much longer after your dust got there - towards the outer edge of the Solar System.
    There's a reason why, outside of two neutron stars colliding and imploding into a black hole (which we recently discovered actually SHAKES THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE FOR A FEW SECONDS!), a Supernova is THE biggest explosion in the entire UNIVERSE. It's insane just how rapid the explosion is and how much energy is involved.

    Idk if this is megalaphobic but one picture that always fucks with me is the picture taken by the space satellite voyager one. Its an almost completely black picture, except in a light ray there's a little tiny dot which is Earth. The photo is called Pale Blue Dot and Carl Sagan has a very interesting quote about it.
    "Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam."

    5:01 OMFG THAT'S FROM A TOWN 30MINS FROM ME HOLY FUCK. Okay, so this is in Australia, in a town known as Newcastle, the cargo ship got washed up onto the beach from a horrendous storm we had a few years ago, wind so powerful that it shook the ship off course into the beach, when the harbour entry about 100m or so to the ship's right, took over a week to remove it and it left a permanent change to the beach, a v-shape "dent". That building is quite an old one, these days it's mostly used as a place to change into your swim wear and it's where meetings/gatherings for swimming competitions occur. To give a perspective of distance, the back of the building to that ship i guess is around 100m, maybe slightly more, maybe slightly less.
    From what i can remember no one was injured, no one was using the beach due to dangerous surf and the captain got to safety via helicopter.
