- What is a starquake? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Matt Kirshen explore asteroseismology, the sun, and what’s happening on the insides of stars with astrophysicist Conny Aerts.
Is a starquake the same as an earthquake? Learn about the sounds of the stars and the different types of quakes in the solar system. What’s the biggest quake in the solar system? Do other planets have plate tectonics? What does a quake look like on the ice giants? We explore the starquakes of supergiant stars and more.
What does ‘quake’ even mean? What have we learned from analysing starquakes? Discover the internal rotation of stars and the theory of how stars evolve. How old do stars get? We discuss how the angular momentum of a star can impact its lifetime. Does rotation speed up a fusion reaction?
How do oscillations work in a binary star system? We break down what happened to Betelgeuse and why it’s not as bright as it used to be. We talk Kepler, TESS, and the new telescope PLATO that help asteroseismologists understand the stars. Are starquakes dangerous to humans? Plus, learn about coronal mass ejections and how a big one would impact life on Earth.

What's Your Favorite Star Fact?
The fact that they can live anywhere from 10^4 to 10^12 years just based on mass
The fact that my brain can make sense of your mouthquakes is pretty cool :D
Wait wants happening to my left shoulder. 😵💫😵💫
Wow that explains the pain I been feeling
Bettle Juice is dimmer ... The 7th Seal is broken ♡
Love Dr Neil Degrasse Tyson I have learned more from him than I have any teacher lol
It's likely that the same goes for those teachers as well LOL
like star quakes I'm glad to see these types of comments happening all the time and throughout every video by star talk. ^.^
@@crackerjacksimpson5839 à
He is brilliant and explains logically so non-scientists can comprehend.
Well you've been bamboozled bc he is literally a teacher😂 he's just a good one
Matt is locked in a never ending smile lol
His parents warned him his face would get stuck like that, but he just smiled and nodded.
HaHa…Couldn’t concentrate anymore after I read that!!
When the dentist does a great job on those veneers..
He is honored to be there
Yeah ..when he's occasionally not smiling for a few seconds it looks strange. He's obviously thrilled to be there..lol.... ( who wouldn't be..lol)
How lovely is it that we can give blind people a feeling of the beauty in the universe and keep them connected to the experience of space in such a unique way.
That was a great statement she made, and you could tell she was very proud that it's something we can offer to the blind.
It's always fun to see Dr Tyson learn something new too
He already knew all that he was just humoring them! 😉😁
He was being nice
Hi Dr Tyson, I love your stuff,, and I love love astronomy,love from Iran🇮🇷❤
This is one was a pretty cool interview, I loved the dynamic of Matt containing Neil a little bit and he is definitely loving Conny, who is at the same time funny without trying. The dynamic and chemistry of Neil and Chuck is sometimes so good that the end up dominating the interview aka annoying a bit their guests.
And, I learned a lot about Star oscillations.
Thanks to my personal astrophysicist and his Team. Love from Berlin.
Im always happy when a new episode comes out!
Great episode. Fantastic guest.
Astroseismology - what a fascinating sub-specialty. Thanks, N deG Tyson, Matt Kirshner, and Dr. Conny Aerts. It would be interesting to hear some time-lapse audio of a starquake she’s compressed, to render the reverberations audible for us humans. And her explanation for the dimming of Betelgeuse lets me hope they do point JWST that way soon. Looking through veils of dust is its business, to see what the restless red giant was up to, inside the dust cloud it made!
@Tang Daitui
FO
@Tang Daitui You're pretty pathetic for caring.
Dr.Tyson, welcome back.
I absolutely love conversations with such brilliant scientists! I learn so much by the way they make the highly complex understandable 💜
I was listening to this but had to come and watch it before I finish listening to it :D
I love Connie's attitude. She's like Awwww you died, I'm sorry, but let's cut you up and find out what happened. People like her are so so valuable for understanding our universe.
Another delightful guest!
I had a smile on my face the whole time watching this (am only 1/2 way through). I am only just finding this "channel" (subbed) & the chemistry (pun) is so amazing. Bringing me much joy. Cannot wait to watch more. Thank you. 🙏🏽
Best teacher ever!
Congrats to 2 million subs from the future!
Thank you Connie. When I’m accused of breaking wind loudly in the morning I shall correct the accuser by saying I’m quaking.
Or oscillating 😂
No c
Hahaha great one
Just tell em yu are providing beautiful data
There's a couple cars with subwoofers in my neighborhood that make me think there's an earthquake every once in a while
Interesting topic and chockfull of info as usual, Neil and guests! Thank you!! WoW!!
Chuck's friend friend Alejandro from Monterrey, Mexico. Greetings from Kabale, Uganda.
An absolutely fascinating video.
Sweet a new video ☺️ I can't sleep without you Mr Tyson
Hi Dr Tyson, I'm studying to become a PhD of astrophysics and have always loved your stuff. I watched your version of Cosmos when I was a kid and along with other internet space content it inspired my thirst for the stars. I would love to share with you some JWST public data that I have been processing
Cool
Congrats, man! Another place to look might be Launchpad Astronomy. He's been doing a lot of videos on JWST, including a couple on processing public data, so I'd bet he'd be interested in what you're working on.
Hi Tyler! We'd love to see the data you've been processing. Where can we find you?
@@StarTalk did you still want to reach out?
Enjoyed this episode, though a bit disappointed you never touched on the magnetar SGR-1806-20’s starquake
Okay another crazy thing is Betelgeuse (the star not the super natural entity) seems to be in it's last stages of life and probably at this point based off of how light travels it probably already blew up and just now the light is reaching us from that event.
Two overused phrases I hate in astronomy:
"... even light can't escape"
"... already happened long time ago bro"
🤣🤣
I like to listen about stars more than about war. The safeties place in Universe
Conny Aerts might one day win the Nobel Prize!
Neil you need to describe what a polar vortex is.
He's an astrophysicist, not a meteorologist.
some guests add really well to neil and chucks energy and some dont understand it. tbh its what determines an episode quality because theyre all very intelligent
Neil and Chuck for 2024
Happy Birthmonth, Neil!
What a delightful guest!!!
Two weeks....two weeks...
1.99M subs!
Startalk time 🙂👏. It's obvious the smart lady appreciates other people's intelligence, because some times we share amazing information like her and that someone doesn't notice the significance of the information. It becomes like a waste of my time trying to do a good deed.
It took many episodes for the Good Doctor to remember "PROBABLY SCIENCE " (ie Sometimes Science, Is it Science) outstanding educational episode as anticipated Lady & Gentleman
Bless up from Brooklyn
I thoroughly enjoyed that conversation, she was an excellent guest.
Niel, if we use the number line in the left right orientation, is it possible that they can have other dimensions like up, down, and even a time dimension?
Always eagerly waiting my favourite of all RUclips
Love from Tripura ❤️🔥
Epic StarTalk 💫
Starquakes: when celebrities suddenly shift personas off-camera.
Listening to her explain this sounds like a perfect explanation of the orb, an oscillation of the leftover soul.
I wonder if there are quakes with black holes.
It felt for me like listening to Professor McGonagall of astrophysics, just sayin. Truly awesome!
I like how (in segment 3), she basically said she wouldn't use the JWST because it doesn't fit her needs. I think it's always important to remember that "new isn't always better". Great episode.
One of the best guests!
New West is New Westminster, BC, Canada
The greater the star acceleration the more compressed it is and the less turbulence on the inside this is a healthy star with a greater lifespan but what cause the star to age is the pulling on the planets that is orbiting around it believe it or not, the planets releases little pressure from the Sun this calls the sun to flare then pockets are opened and this leads into internal disturbance within the Sun. I believe the more planets orbiting around a star the faster it would age and how big those planets are could have a greater effect. Or if it's a lonely star and no disturbance at all may live less without the the Goldilocks zone to help with internal circulation because without it, it could lead into a weird behavior within the core.
That was lovely ❤
Professor connie is very intelligent. Enjoyed this episode .
“New West” is short for New Westminster, near Vancouver BC, Canada
Haha! My first thought was someone from the Korean Boyband Nu'Est! 😅
its weird to hear Alejandro without chuck doing the accent
Thanx. I agree. An excellent and interesting discussion... 🌻
"Music of the Spheres" is actually the name of the latest Coldplay album - and the idea of making music out of star sounds is... enchanting to me ♥
I'm curious to know if the frequency quake data coming from Jupiter and Saturn don't fit the normality of what you would expect of their interiors?.. or. can you even gleem information about the interiors of these two planets?
DrNeil Degrasse Tyson is jack of all trades! He really got an alien brain!
It's Interesting, in that when I see the term starquake, I think of the massive quakes I've read about happening when the ultra dense crust of a neutron star cracks or shifts.
My first thought was of white dwarfs, which can have quakes from gaining mass and contract. I'd love to hear about how a white dwarf shifts into a neutron star!
Can starquakes cause stars to blink?
Neil and whoever is his guest may be... is always interesting. Even just the pleasant golden tones of Neil's voice..lol...( co host are usually good too..but Chuck Nice is a natural with Neil and is perfect fit with Neil as his pretty much permanent co-host...they make a good team ..science and comedy to make a serious subject entertaining. OK ..now send me my check....or maybe a gift certificate..lol
EVERY. DAMN. TIME.
Me reading name of new StarTalk episode: "Eh, not sure I'm that into that topic"
Me after watching episode: ** MIND BLOWN, JAW ON FLOOR ABOUT HOW UNEXPECTEDLY COOL EPISODE WAS **
A practical use of this discipline is to gather a ton of star quake data over time and then use that data to calculate not just composition, mass and internal rotation but also apply other disciplines like fluid dynamics to the data. With enough time and data they might be able to make a predictive model that could give us humans advance warning to things like coronal mass ejection or solar flares that could affect our life and infrastructure here on earth.
“Alejandro Renosso” asked a question!!! Where is Chuck Nice when you need him 😭
Neil! It’s a good idea to have you laugh often. Maybe there’s another way to make science fun then just smiling. This is not a insult! Just a thought for science to get to people.
"it will blow up, with patience" = from 0 to 200 million years from now. ;O)-
I want to preface this that I am fully aware that they were joking about geologists get excited when earthquakes are destroying lives. For those who are just learning about the study of earthquakes, please understand that their excitement is because as the earth is going through a quake, we are learning more and more about the hows and whys of earthquakes. The more we understand that, the better our chances are in saving lives.
Fascinating, even for lay people like me
Betelguise dimming and your reaction to that info was the same when I found out about Pluto being demoted from a planet to a space rock.
it didn't become a "space rock", it became a dwarf planet. i dunno what universe you live in, but in mine, a dwarf planet is a bit higher tier than a space rock
I like space quakes
This may help correct stellar dynamo theory.
I give example, a problem of family shake entire members also solar system as well,entire planets and stars magnetics strings connected to entire solarsystem
Aw yeah!
Rotation can it be like a vortex the largest mass distance layers will be slow and lower will be pretty dang fast u r the bright star hit me
Ohhh , i understand maybe why someone tells it goes at sun when is night... Because they go when the star it turn off itself
actually, in the movie Beetlejuice, The GhostWithTheMost's name IS spelled Betelgeuse, but then the Maitlands read it and couldn't say it right, so Beetlejuice had to change it just so they would say it right. There was a whole scene about it
How much longer is this gonna be?
If you're from California or Okinawa then the idea of never ending quakes is not hard to grasp.
When is the summification sound track coming out and are people going start to copyright those sounds too 🤔
Great
I was living in Long Beach when that wicked quake collapsed that dual tier bridge in the late 80’s. Then moved back to the Midwest came back for a visit and brought my best friend for his first trip anywhere. We went to stay with my dad then visited some mutual friends he dropped us off. It just so happened to be a wedding reception that night and I was sneaking drinks got myself wasted. Woke up to a wonderful earthquake while severely hung over my friend was confused because it was his very first quake he’s experienced…It’s definitely an experience they come on so quickly and go just as fast.. Only takes 30 seconds to cause extensive damage. Once showing us puny little bipeds who’s really boss!! 😂
I think it was 1989 the first quake I was talking about.
Got a question if we get ice ages don't we also get the opposite a heat age I guess with no ice or cold
45:30 It would have been funny if the editor disrupted the video right when she said that.
I love this show...I am a physicist now yeah.yeah...
****** There is a city called New Westminster in BC, Canada, we call it New West for short. *********
There is a place here in Canada called New West which is New Westminster, BC Canada near Vancouver
, BC Canada..
In some science fiction stories there's the concept of a star destroying weapon. Since iron is the end of the line for fusion in stars, could we destroy a star by chucking '57 Buick's into a star?
It's all a question of scale, to humans a voice isn't a quake, to a microbe it probably is. Seismic waves are by definition sound, per wiki: waves of acoustic energy. They are kinetic waves, the movement of matter bumping against other matter, as opposed to electromagnetic waves for instance.
Quake is the best FPS ever made, well Quake 3.
What an interesting lady
Her findings could help with the nuclear fusion debacle
Great episode, thanks Neil Smoke-deGrass Tyson you are official Science boss.
and here comes our gerenerations most brilliant minds
love america
love tyson
love greene
love kaku
very interesting❤
20 zillion STARS AND JUST 2000
WELL I HAVE TO COME TO U.S.A
Hey good night . How are you doing
Fun fact: that 16yo is actually 42
I assumed that stars rotating at different angular rates at different depths was what caused the star's magnet field.
From mass and angular speed of the stars, is it possible to estimate number, location, and mass of their planets? i think it is.
New West likely is New Westminster, BC
Hey Neil what do you think would happen if earth had two moons and how would it play out
in british columbia canada we have a city called new westminister (new west) maybe hes from there?
I remember this time a few years ago in Portsmouth Virginia there was an earthquake a small one but a quake
