@@dprphotoAnton is using Einstein's "Special Theory of Relativity" to determine the "kinematic time dilation" (the faster an object travels the less time passes) experienced by the cosmic ray traveling at a relativistic (very close to the speed of light) velocities. Look up the "Lorentz factor" for more details and the formula for computing the time dilation.
Wait a second. So the ultimate speed is not speed of the light? A particle could travel a 1 billion light years in 1.5 Earth days? That's not just faster than light, it's more like a PORTAL?
Some guy experienced a bit flipping during a Mario speed run. He was then accidentally warped to the top of the level. They later validated it by manually flipping the exact bit and got the same result.

I would like to note that, on average, memory bits gets flipped two or three times for non cosmic ray reasons for every one that gets flipped by cosmic rays. The effect isn't negligible, but even without cosmic ray induced errors, the number of bits flipped would be in the same general area as it is now. The most common reason for errors is when a bit flips legitimately it creates a magnetic field that can sometimes cause a nearby bit to flip as well.
This makes sense since chip makers spend a lot of effort to get "good enough" error rates for each new generation of chips with smaller transistors, and when the error rates are on the same order of magnitude as cosmic ray errors, that defines good enough.
This was actually used for a malware attack in the past. If a program could figure out where it was being physically stored on a chip compared to where basic system security protocols were, and if it could cause the two to get shuffled around, it could gain access to physical bits around important physical bits for the computer's security and hammer that bit over and over again until it flipped giving it control
Think of the cost savings economy wide if someone started making computer and server cases that block most cosmic rays and other random outside forces that affect electronics.

Good to have you back, live, Anton. Thanks for leaving us those compilations while you recuperated! Getting hit with a baseball is painful enough. A particle with the same force concentrated to to the size of a proton could be devastating. And, at 99% C, there would not be much time to duck!
How exactly would that be devastating? Like okay it hits another particle that's part of a cell, so some of the energy is likely converted into static mass while other particles are sent off too, but there is so much space between and inside atoms, that what are the chances that either of the original two particles, or the created particles are going to collide with another one in your body? I don't see how that energy is going to stay inside your body, except for maybe a few neutrons generated by the collision.
It wouldn't be devastating. You wouldn't even notice it. On the scale of single particles the size of protons, you wouldn't have enough target surface area at such extreme relativistic speeds for it to interact with too much of you.
@@user-qd3fm8te8o I thought he exactly said that it had the momentum of a baseball? Or did he mean the entire mass-energy of a baseball was put into it's kinetic energy (in which case I would assume it would have much more momentum than a baseball).

It's still just a single particle. It will pass through a lot of matter without even touching. it'll probably kill a few cells. It won't leave a smoking crater.

You wouldn't feel anything. Even the one he mentioned with the equivalent energy of a baseball would go completely unnoticed because only a tiny percentage of that energy would be imparted into your body as it passed through. It would definitely destroy any DNA it hit, so it could be the reason you develop cancer years down the line, but nothing would happen in that moment.

There's only so much you can get from the video and we should all keep in mind that having a synopsis isn't the same as actually understanding something. With science that would mean being able to assess the data and be familiar with the method used.

Wow! I understood! I get frustrated at times with cosmology and physics talks. Just can’t follow. Your talk was very well organized with simple examples. I am intrigued and plan to watch more of your videos. And i won’t let others deter me from exploring and feeling a sense of awe. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Thank you
I feel so excited for so many mysteries discovered in physics these years. It's like we are at the edge of a whole new branch of physics similar to the quantum revolution in the early 20th century.
dark matter, dark energy, quantizing gravity, observing cosmological anomalies like laniakea and experimenting quantum interpretations just to name a few, i believe we are close to a crucial turning point in the history of physics and its really exciting
The first thing that came to mind when you said it came from the local void was some kind of interaction with dark matter or dark energy, it'd easily explain why we're not seeing anything there and quite likely also the unfathomable energies. Like maybe a super rare collision of two dark matter particles creates a planck length black hole that instantly evaporates with hawking radiation. E: Since a lot of people probably won't read the replies I'll update this here too. Did some calculations based on the theorized energies of WIMPs (100GeV range) and as one might guess from the assumed particle energies they're nowhere near enough to even theoretically produce a planck scale black hole. Either there'd need to be billions of them or they'd need to have energies far above theorized.
To me, the fact that it came from the direction of a void is compelling evidence that it is from beyond the local void and was able to extend the galactic speed limit by going through an area with less interference. My .02, not an astrophysicist...
@@tzortzinis1 It's possible that two tiny invisible balls of darkness bumped into each other so hard, it created a hole in space that blew up with a ton of energy, sending a very fast and strong tiny ball to our planet.
Hello Anton! I really like your new camera angle and setup! This information is very interesting. It really does prove that there will always be more to discover.
IBM's cosmic ray study revealed the actual leading cause of "bit rot." Most times, the bit flip is in a large data structure, like changing one shade of pink to a slightly different shade of pink in a large prepress page layout in Photoshop. Sometimes it's in a kernel pointer, and your computer wanders off to go contemplate its navel.
Is there a limit to how much a material these rays can pass through? Would dense materials such as lead or uranium etc stop them? I understand that high density materials cause a some cascading effects of secondary radiation, and that some interesting composite shielding is used on space station and satellites. Worked in industrial radiography and in some instances up to 4MeV x-rays... there cosmic rays sound like monsters compared to that. Wow.
That lead warps space/time to a measurable extent doesn't surprise me considering the relativistic effects GPS sats/recievers have to calculate to be accurate due to a meer 250,000 feet difference in the earths gravity field gradient. It IS new information to me and I thank you. Are there any online lectures about this you are aware of? Makes one think of Bob Lazar's "gravity one and gravity two". @@tsm688

I’ve always wondered about the possibility of rogue black holes of assorted sizes getting catapulted out of galaxies by mergers, just floating out there occasionally crossing paths with other expelled material. Or perhaps larger black holes that instead of having galactic masses collect around them either shed it or have it drawn away by larger masses, as part of a process of failed clustering.
@@boyblue3270 It's a reference to the first Top Gun movie. The first comment about The Petrov Drive to Information Zone, reminds me of the scene where Maverick and Goose are saying, " I feel the need for speed!" The next scene has the song Highway To The Danger Zone. Hence the correlation.

Seeing the location of the source of some of the cosmic rays is so close, I had a thought that some mechanism of black holes approaching each other past the final parsec might be producing them, the energy emitted resulting in the black holes getting nearer to each other
I agree with this, it could be like a space scissor between black holes or dark matter is my idea, as if we had scissors between Earth and the moon and shut them it’d be at almost light speed, in this sense it could be a scissor that sends hypercharged particles everywhere if it’s a merging black hole, this idea takes away the need for it to come from one place as it could be from anywhere and sent in any direction
@@tyresefarrell Not an expert, but I think for something as violent as a black hole collision we'd be likely to see very strong sustained radiation, since the black holes wouldn't collide in a single instant. So it's not a good explanation for these very intermittent particles. However, I wouldn't be surprised if this is a side effect of something much smaller falling into a black hole, or even a collision between two objects in orbit very close to a black hole.
@@chriswilliamson9993 this doesn’t explain any form of dark matter we have , we have zero ideas of how it works and our best bet it based on hard science that also doesn’t work in our model of science
An acquaintance of mine told me about this a few days ago. A particle was detected having the equivalent power of a baseball. To think of how much power that single particle had staggers the imagination and requires some sincere thought about whether or not there really is such a thing as a multiverse because that particle couldn't, or shouldn't, actual exist.
Right, assuming distance is in the ballpark, there may be something about those two regions.. this is on the level of a collapsing black hole,..is the Void much older than we can plumb, emitting heat from the surface of a golf ball. is the Cygnus star cluster caught in titanic tidal forces..
During a super mario 64 speedrun, someone performed a seemingly impossible feat because a cosmic ray struck his N64 and changed a binary value for marios height position and teleported him up a tower shaving off a huge amount of time
Can’t these rays be stirred by a massive object? Maybe it doesn’t come from the void but something in it made it change directions, unless it has a way to measure the distance trackers like redshift for light?
What if something isn't a void but merely looks like one? A massive black hole the size of an entire galaxy might look like a void. Also tons of particles could limit visibility, especially with diverse compositions. Just random thoughts. Love your content and your willingness to share.
You would still be able to realize it is there by the effect it has on the light around it, such a large black hole would cause the craziest gravitational lensing. Would love to see what that would look like, though.
Would it be possible for massive amounts of particles with heavy metals throughout or in our visual range potentially block the lensing of a galaxy sizes black hole? Just thinking light can't bend stains what it never reaches. I know it's not likely but I thought the idea was fascinating.
The current idea is that it isn’t just a void and there is in fact something there. Which is why they’re going to take a look. Hopefully we get answers, but the reality is we’ll get more questions instead lol
This story puts me in mind of _rogue waves._ How many entities, conditions, factors, etc ( eg heliosphere ) have been discovered, without which we couldn’t exist?
They can infact if you link stringtheory with some spintheory principles when it comes to voltage and velocity when molecular density reaches a cymatic equilibrium it will harmonize and amplify the effects of a similar wavelength since quantum entanglement is a natural phenomena
What I think is happening with these cosmic rays to make them so powerful is due to a type of lensing. For example if there are undetectable smaller black holes in close enough proximity to each other that in a sweet spot between them cosmic rays came escape. Meaning that they are pulled and accelerated from the side away from us in toward the black holes and then exit at that sweet spot at a higher rate of speed and energy. Much like how a fresnel lens works. Thanks for this video Anton! I very much like this kind of thought experiment.
@Anton Petrov Thank you Anton for breaking this down into simple understandable language for us non-scientists. A very good presentation that I RoccoMend.
It maybe hard to find the origins of the rouge particles because of directional changes from other bodies such as stars, black holes or planets. These particles maybe utilizing gravity assist from one of these sources perhaps going through a galaxy like a pinball.
Yeah I meant to say that magnetic fields such as surround black holes or other objects would act as a hadron collider. Maybe the particle originates at a black hole and then gets more energized by other objects. Who's to say there can't be curve balls being hurled at us?@@castonyoung7514
I believe that'd take too much time, as the script he seems to read from gets butchered every time. The amount of jump cuts, LITERALLY every 5-10 seconds, means he's fucking something up every 5-10 seconds. Also, i believe he's too much of a tightass with money to pay someone to transcribe it. Seriously, think of how much this man makes through donations with 1.21 million subscribers and had to quibble with a landlord over a rent increase, saying he couldn't afford it. PLUS he works as well. And just decided to update a microphone. Just think if only 1% of those subscribers were only giving $1 a month. That's 3 grand a week. And you have got to be honest, those are very conservative figures considering there'd be a minimum Paypal membership level and at the end of the video there's a good 2 minutes of names screaming by which are paypal memberships.
Anton, i have a question. Is Earth magnetic field weaker ? And also, am I only one who remembers that 20 years ago i could look around sun no problem it was bit yellowish, now even in winter it is blinding and white.
Your body couldn't absorb almost any of the energy from one of those hitting you. It would rip right through you and you'd absorb less total than if it were less powerful. I remember learning of something similar with the guy who accidentally shot himself with a particle accelerator.
I'm curious how big are these rays? is the entire planet getting hit with it, or a city... or is it just a small diameter that could hit one person but not the person standing next to them? He doesn't go into that.
Imagine that particle hitting your freshly made cereal bowl... splash! Ruined morning :) Also thanks for making videos, learned a lot from you over the years, and today I subbed.

Even the one he mentioned with the equivalent energy of a baseball would go completely unnoticed because only a tiny percentage of that energy would be imparted into your body as it passed through. It would definitely destroy any DNA it hit, so it could be the reason you develop cancer years down the line, but nothing would happen in that moment.
Cosmic rays slam into the atmosphere causing a "shower" of lower energy and less massive particles. They do not make it to Earth's surface.
@@user-cr4pz5yg7y True until tested we will never no unless you do some research and come to the conclusion you quite literally wouldn’t feel such pain on a small scale I don’t know and I’d rather not speak on what I don’t know😅
I am 100% sure that insurance companies say that not cause any ill effects for you...
Anton looking like a pro with that sweet new mic 🎙️💯
I love all the educational stuff you rock comrade LOL intelligence and educating ourselves brings us past any labels they want to impose. Truly respect and love what you do brother keep it up !
I wasn't prepared and almost spit my coffee on my screen when you said "uhookers", lol
For years I have enjoyed your videos and greatly appreciate your dedication and insight. Thank you so much for all you do Anton and have a wonderful holiday with your family
Feels like its easier to understand you in this one. Love being able to come dig into stuff like this. Thank you for your work, wonderful person.
Your audio sounds just as good as it did before the visible mic.
Even though you do an excellent job of explaining complicated subjects so they are more easily understood, I still feel like I need to go back to school to understand this sometimes.
There's only so much you can get from the video and we should all keep in mind that having a synopsis isn't the same as actually understanding something. With science that would mean being able to assess the data and be familiar with the method used.
Yeah.....Because Its Mostly Bollox & Bullshit Misdirection & Blatant Lies
Its okay i feel the same way too. Its part of the learning process
Anton, I love you, and I love your channel, but for real, I don't need anything else to fuel my anxiety, bro!
I'm just kidding, keep it coming. This is one of my favourite channels. I could listen to you talk all day.
Good to see you back and healthy. Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.
Anton! I, for some reason, have trouble hearing you normally. The mic in your face helps SO MUCH! Thank you 🤗
Thanks for your insight and dedication as well as your hard work ❤
Thank you for your continuous great videos! Love how you present this information in a way that even a layman can grasp the concept.
Please continue this great work
Also love the humor :D
Wow! I understood! I get frustrated at times with cosmology and physics talks. Just can’t follow. Your talk was very well organized with simple examples. I am intrigued and plan to watch more of your videos. And i won’t let others deter me from exploring and feeling a sense of awe. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Thank you
The Amateratsu at the end after the credits was a great reference! Lol love it. Great video!
I feel so excited for so many mysteries discovered in physics these years. It's like we are at the edge of a whole new branch of physics similar to the quantum revolution in the early 20th century.
Yes, we may be getting closer to a dark matter age.
dark matter, dark energy, quantizing gravity, observing cosmological anomalies like laniakea and experimenting quantum interpretations just to name a few, i believe we are close to a crucial turning point in the history of physics and its really exciting
I also feel the same way!
The first thing that came to mind when you said it came from the local void was some kind of interaction with dark matter or dark energy, it'd easily explain why we're not seeing anything there and quite likely also the unfathomable energies. Like maybe a super rare collision of two dark matter particles creates a planck length black hole that instantly evaporates with hawking radiation.
E: Since a lot of people probably won't read the replies I'll update this here too. Did some calculations based on the theorized energies of WIMPs (100GeV range) and as one might guess from the assumed particle energies they're nowhere near enough to even theoretically produce a planck scale black hole. Either there'd need to be billions of them or they'd need to have energies far above theorized.
That would do it as the wave function would have energy approaching infinity and the wavelength close to zero. 😮
Is there a Heliospheric/ Magnetospheric field diminishing strength relationship?
To me, the fact that it came from the direction of a void is compelling evidence that it is from beyond the local void and was able to extend the galactic speed limit by going through an area with less interference. My .02, not an astrophysicist...
Explain it to me like I'm five, please.
@@tzortzinis1 It's possible that two tiny invisible balls of darkness bumped into each other so hard, it created a hole in space that blew up with a ton of energy, sending a very fast and strong tiny ball to our planet.
Hello Anton! I really like your new camera angle and setup! This information is very interesting. It really does prove that there will always be more to discover.
Thank you for trying something new. This is so much crisper. Glad and grateful!
That was a fascinating investigation . Loved it . Thanks Anton
IBM's cosmic ray study revealed the actual leading cause of "bit rot." Most times, the bit flip is in a large data structure, like changing one shade of pink to a slightly different shade of pink in a large prepress page layout in Photoshop. Sometimes it's in a kernel pointer, and your computer wanders off to go contemplate its navel.
You ever think there is life in that void that has some kind of radar blocking the entire area? If I had a galaxy sized empire that’s what I’d do.
if i had a galaxy sized empire, i wouldn't be afraid of what's out there

Is there a limit to how much a material these rays can pass through? Would dense materials such as lead or uranium etc stop them? I understand that high density materials cause a some cascading effects of secondary radiation, and that some interesting composite shielding is used on space station and satellites. Worked in industrial radiography and in some instances up to 4MeV x-rays... there cosmic rays sound like monsters compared to that. Wow.
you basically answered your own question. The video showed a tree of cascading particles all with lower energy/mass so there is your answer
Lead @99.9% speed of light is a monster indeed. An atomic and molecular wrecking ball. How interesting!
@@Rivenburg-xd5yf lead nuclei are so heavy they have relavistic effects while stationary :D
That lead warps space/time to a measurable extent doesn't surprise me considering the relativistic effects GPS sats/recievers have to calculate to be accurate due to a meer 250,000 feet difference in the earths gravity field gradient. It IS new information to me and I thank you. Are there any online lectures about this you are aware of? Makes one think of Bob Lazar's "gravity one and gravity two". @@tsm688
Anton, the sound of your voice is much better now, it’s nice 😊

Victor Hess was Austrian, not German. He spoke German, but he was born in Austria, lived most of his life there before migrating to the US.
The mic actually works better than previous before without it. I can hear you now loud and clear even without the volume way up. Thanks Anton for sharing what you know. Great work!
I’ve always wondered about the possibility of rogue black holes of assorted sizes getting catapulted out of galaxies by mergers, just floating out there occasionally crossing paths with other expelled material. Or perhaps larger black holes that instead of having galactic masses collect around them either shed it or have it drawn away by larger masses, as part of a process of failed clustering.
Love the new set up Anton 🎉🎉
Best channel to watch late at night. I love these videos
On The Petrov Drive to Information Zone!
Ready
Go😅
I feel the need for Anton!

@@boyblue3270 It's a reference to the first Top Gun movie. The first comment about The Petrov Drive to Information Zone, reminds me of the scene where Maverick and Goose are saying, " I feel the need for speed!" The next scene has the song Highway To The Danger Zone. Hence the correlation.
Hey Anton! I have been subscribed to your channel for a long time now and I always look forward to your videos. You have a gift for making complex topics accessible and interesting for the non-scientific mind. Your videos help me calm my busy brain (I have Asperger's) and inspire me to learn more about the wonders of the universe. Thank you for your amazing work and passion. You are a true educator and a role model for me.
"Oh la la! This is so cool" screams merch! Anton get on it!
We love you wonderful person! Mic or not you always make the difficult to understand somehow understandable.
Awesome Anton. Excellent astrophysics study. Thank you for your due diligence.
Seeing the location of the source of some of the cosmic rays is so close, I had a thought that some mechanism of black holes approaching each other past the final parsec might be producing them, the energy emitted resulting in the black holes getting nearer to each other
I agree with this, it could be like a space scissor between black holes or dark matter is my idea, as if we had scissors between Earth and the moon and shut them it’d be at almost light speed, in this sense it could be a scissor that sends hypercharged particles everywhere if it’s a merging black hole, this idea takes away the need for it to come from one place as it could be from anywhere and sent in any direction
Or perhaps counter rotating black holes, on approach, launching particles via the combined frame dragging…. I’ll call that one the skeet hypothesis
@@tyresefarrell Not an expert, but I think for something as violent as a black hole collision we'd be likely to see very strong sustained radiation, since the black holes wouldn't collide in a single instant. So it's not a good explanation for these very intermittent particles. However, I wouldn't be surprised if this is a side effect of something much smaller falling into a black hole, or even a collision between two objects in orbit very close to a black hole.
@@chriswilliamson9993 this doesn’t explain any form of dark matter we have , we have zero ideas of how it works and our best bet it based on hard science that also doesn’t work in our model of science
I see it as more of a from final parsec to a few Schwartzchild’s radii apart as opposed to the moments before actual collision
An acquaintance of mine told me about this a few days ago. A particle was detected having the equivalent power of a baseball. To think of how much power that single particle had staggers the imagination and requires some sincere thought about whether or not there really is such a thing as a multiverse because that particle couldn't, or shouldn't, actual exist.
Right, assuming distance is in the ballpark, there may be something about those two regions.. this is on the level of a collapsing black hole,..is the Void much older than we can plumb, emitting heat from the surface of a golf ball. is the Cygnus star cluster caught in titanic tidal forces..
Soon, I hope, we will do this too.
sorry it was my particle, my mistake

During a super mario 64 speedrun, someone performed a seemingly impossible feat because a cosmic ray struck his N64 and changed a binary value for marios height position and teleported him up a tower shaving off a huge amount of time

Is this quantum jump?

Love the mic brother! Keep doing your thing!!
I watch every day too! Catching up on the backlog since i just discovered you a couple if weeks ago.
“Oh la la, this is so cool”
I’m still laughing.
Can’t these rays be stirred by a massive object? Maybe it doesn’t come from the void but something in it made it change directions, unless it has a way to measure the distance trackers like redshift for light?
At that speed, it would take some truly stunning forces to get it to change direction in a meaningful way. We know nothing anything like that strong.
What if something isn't a void but merely looks like one? A massive black hole the size of an entire galaxy might look like a void. Also tons of particles could limit visibility, especially with diverse compositions. Just random thoughts. Love your content and your willingness to share.
We can detect stuff from space in wavelengths other than visible light, though. A big black hole would still be very obvious.
You would still be able to realize it is there by the effect it has on the light around it, such a large black hole would cause the craziest gravitational lensing. Would love to see what that would look like, though.
A massive black hole would bend light around it and affect nearby galaxies.
It would be VERY noticeable.
Would it be possible for massive amounts of particles with heavy metals throughout or in our visual range potentially block the lensing of a galaxy sizes black hole? Just thinking light can't bend stains what it never reaches. I know it's not likely but I thought the idea was fascinating.
The current idea is that it isn’t just a void and there is in fact something there. Which is why they’re going to take a look. Hopefully we get answers, but the reality is we’ll get more questions instead lol
OMG ! Thank you Anton for this update
WAKE UP HONEY NEW ANTON VIDEOOO! I know nothing about physics but i'm so glad Anton keeps my inner astronomer/physicist happy
This story puts me in mind of _rogue waves._
How many entities, conditions, factors, etc ( eg heliosphere ) have been discovered, without which we couldn’t exist?
this isn't one of them.
listen closely. he explains how rare they are with or without.
@@tsm688 in fact, they were supposed to be two separate comments, but I admit I made them look a little logically connected.
I wonder if some particles can ride gravitational waves like a surfer
With the amplitude to wavelength ratio being so minuscule not likely. But an interesting idea to think about.
Probably quantum waves.
🏄♂️🏄♂️🏄♂️
They can infact if you link stringtheory with some spintheory principles when it comes to voltage and velocity when molecular density reaches a cymatic equilibrium it will harmonize and amplify the effects of a similar wavelength since quantum entanglement is a natural phenomena
@@Zbezt Ah yes.
The famous Quantum Encabulator Effect.
What I think is happening with these cosmic rays to make them so powerful is due to a type of lensing. For example if there are undetectable smaller black holes in close enough proximity to each other that in a sweet spot between them cosmic rays came escape. Meaning that they are pulled and accelerated from the side away from us in toward the black holes and then exit at that sweet spot at a higher rate of speed and energy. Much like how a fresnel lens works. Thanks for this video Anton! I very much like this kind of thought experiment.
A cosmic particle accelerator, imagine if we could harness something like that!

@Anton Petrov Thank you Anton for breaking this down into simple understandable language for us non-scientists. A very good presentation that I RoccoMend.
It maybe hard to find the origins of the rouge particles because of directional changes from other bodies such as stars, black holes or planets. These particles maybe utilizing gravity assist from one of these sources perhaps going through a galaxy like a pinball.
But the effect of regular stellar objects on such a particle would be inconsequential. Only a black hole could change its direction.
Yeah I meant to say that magnetic fields such as surround black holes or other objects would act as a hadron collider. Maybe the particle originates at a black hole and then gets more energized by other objects. Who's to say there can't be curve balls being hurled at us?@@castonyoung7514
amaterasuuuuu!!!!
Anton: It would be nice to have transcripts available for your excellent scientific presentations.
I believe that'd take too much time, as the script he seems to read from gets butchered every time. The amount of jump cuts, LITERALLY every 5-10 seconds, means he's fucking something up every 5-10 seconds.
Also, i believe he's too much of a tightass with money to pay someone to transcribe it. Seriously, think of how much this man makes through donations with 1.21 million subscribers and had to quibble with a landlord over a rent increase, saying he couldn't afford it. PLUS he works as well. And just decided to update a microphone.
Just think if only 1% of those subscribers were only giving $1 a month. That's 3 grand a week. And you have got to be honest, those are very conservative figures considering there'd be a minimum Paypal membership level and at the end of the video there's a good 2 minutes of names screaming by which are paypal memberships.
How about it's just hard to understand what he says, even with practiced listening? @@evanroberts2771
big fan of the new mic setup! Great video as usual Anton
Always wonderful content we keep learning about our wonderful universe
Anton, i have a question.
Is Earth magnetic field weaker ?
And also, am I only one who remembers that 20 years ago i could look around sun no problem it was bit yellowish,
now even in winter it is blinding and white.
Buddy that is probably with age and eye sight deterioration.
Maybe from looking at the sun too much?
Weaker
Sky was a darker blue as well.
Keep staring at the sun, you'll figure it out
Your body couldn't absorb almost any of the energy from one of those hitting you. It would rip right through you and you'd absorb less total than if it were less powerful.
I remember learning of something similar with the guy who accidentally shot himself with a particle accelerator.
I'm curious how big are these rays? is the entire planet getting hit with it, or a city... or is it just a small diameter that could hit one person but not the person standing next to them? He doesn't go into that.
Scientists: Gods isnt real.
Also scientists: oh my God particle.
God is a derogitory word for things we dont know its that simple thats why no one gets punished for saying god damn it
@Zbezt the point I was making is that you are disgusting people. Thanks for elaborating to that end.

3:06 That seems odd. How could the helliosphere block those particles without a giant magnet? Direct collisions? There is too much empty space out there for that, I think.
