"think about how much of nature remains invisible, unless seen through the right eyes" is a very nice quote. makes me want to see from all creatures perspective, to truly experience life from all points of view.
There is some seriously GORGEOUS photography in this episode. I especially like how sometimes you can see the entire reflection of a flower inside just one dewdrop. Wow.
We evolved to see the "visible" range because that happens to be what the atmosphere lets through (plus a little UV and IR, but not much). If there was different light coming in, we'd probably have evolved different eyes. And it's impossible to imagine what that would look like. Just like to see what a blind person sees is to see what we see out of our elbow.
Michael is not nearly religious as the Hanson Bros are ... I despise their smug attitude when facing religious ideologies head on . There is no god and the non-overlapping magisteria Bullshit is just that ... Bullshit . Respect is owed to human beings, not the ideas that pollute their brains . The Hansons have extended respect to religious ideologies too many times . Evolution is an unguided process and purpose non-existent . Good clip today, though .
Really interesting to learn Bees see a Lot more ultraviolet light so they see flowers completely differently from us. Inspired a sense of wonder and amazement in me. Thank you!
Yeah, I knew we couldn't imagine it ourselves but I maybe thought we had developed special cameras or cool filters that allowed us to see in different wavelengths. Thank you for getting back to me! Keep the videos coming, man.
I love to learn, although I tend to resist the effort sometimes. Well done. I'm going to watch again. Didn't fully understand how they see the plants differently.
We can build devices to convert just about any wavelength to something we can see. But if we do that, are we really "seeing" the world that way? Or just seeing the world as we do now, only with a representation of the invisible?
Dude, I love the fact that unlike many people from other channels, you're not talking in a super fast speed, don't use jumpcuts every three seconds and most importantly: you're not trying to be deliberately super cool and totally funny too hard. Screw the SciShow and Crash Course, I am subscribing to YOU!
so if bees see more than humans can, maybe that's why they never ever fly in a straight line; they're trying to fly around something so they don't run into it
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seta Most of that can be explained by their hair, actually. It's easily of the more fascinating parts about them. Check out the article on synthetic setae too, there is some amazing stuff in there about Van Der Waals forces. It mainly applies to Geckos, but it shows that just because something is just tiny hairs doesn't mean it doesn't have some amazingly powerful function.
Thank you Dr Joe. We're beekeepers. 2 questions: I'm wondering how many ways light pollution affects pollinators in general and migration of some pollinators like the monarch butterfly.
I don't think light pollution would affect pollinators since the sun would simply outshine all of it and as you probably know, bees don't like going out at night 😆
cool thing is that you can have a lens removed from your eye that allows your eye to see UV light, however it often is only done to protect vision and isn't something like plastic surgery
You said we would need the right pair of eyes to see the rest of the world. What would the world look like under different types of light aside visible light and UV light?
Great Videos , Thanku for that. can please make video on Albert Einstein Statement on bees "If the Bee Disappeared Off the Face of the Earth, Man Would Only Have Four Years Left To Live "
Thank you for your good work and informations, I notice honey bees stop forage about 11 oclock , is that depend on UVA ?, its is about 10 at that times. thank you again.
I know how mega useful bees are, but my question is what the hell is the point of wasps? They pretty much do the same thing, only wasps are nastier and don't produce honey, so what's the deal with wasps?
+ANIME-SITY Wasps have a job to do - and that's insect control !. Without them we'd be overrun by flies, spiders, and garden pests. Think of them as our insect predators - as valuable as our raptors, wolves, and lions are to keeping our ecosystems in balance.
My question is can an atom be both an ion and an irregular isotope at the same time? (I bet there's a cool explanation behind the answer.) (P.S., He MAN!)

VR hajj already been deployed
I almost heard: "as always, thanks for watching"
Seen a fair bit of Vsauce, huh?
Yep
I'm not kidding, I actually heard as always, thanks for watching. I didn't even notice it until I read this comment.
MALDONADO APARECE GATO

I'll double-check with my parents, but I am prettttty sure that's a no. Although they would make very cool brothers.

Very interesting point about the electric charges between bees and flowers!

You know you've reached beekeeper status when you can see mites on the bees in a PBS video. Hint it's at 55 seconds in.
what do they look like? 👀
so if bees see more than humans can, maybe that's why they never ever fly in a straight line; they're trying to fly around something so they don't run into it
This video was amazing. The shots of the flowers and bees were beyond beautiful, they almost looked like out of a pixar movie.
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR PHD!
(I'm in the middle of mine, in MSE, so I can only imagine how awesome it feels to be done!)
Exceptional upclose video of bees. I was amazed!
Shush, Joe is awesome. =D He's not just the "host", It's Okay to be Smart is his blog name and has been for years.
what flower is that at 0:44 it grew by my old house in south oxnard and has the greatest sweetest smell of all flowers ive came across. ,
Passion Flower en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passiflora
Beautiful and informative as always.
I rather thank GOD the creator for designing such wonderful creatures!
thanks for teaching me
Congrats on your Ph.D.! Keep these videos coming :D
Never seen Joe this less energetic
I loved this!!!! Thank you for teaching this. I loved watching it.
The Last part was funny.lol.
So when are the videos explaining how bees do the impossible, touch the untouchable, and break the unbreakable?

Fight the power!
It would be really cool to develop bee goggles so that we could see the world as a bee does!
Bees are wonderful species.
How incredible, I barely BEElieve 🐝😆 him
Awesome love this. Feel like we are just touching the surface to the hidden language of the word 👏👏👏
The speed Hank talks, I wonder how horrendous a ScieShow outtake would be :o
Bee googles - see the world through the eyes of a bee, next beer googles - see...
thank you so much, makes so much sense ..... big chunk of my puzzle your presentations are really good keep up the good work xx cheers
Congrats Dr!
Apparently, bees are also attracted to the symmetry of flowers, as that often means sweeter necter
Excellent, I was doing a presentation v my students about bee vision.
Good presentation.
Bees are amazing!
Thank you Dr Joe. We're beekeepers. 2 questions: I'm wondering how many ways light pollution affects pollinators in general and migration of some pollinators like the monarch butterfly.
Bruh
I don't think light pollution would affect pollinators since the sun would simply outshine all of it and as you probably know, bees don't like going out at night 😆
CONGRADULATIONS!! YOU HAVE REACHED LEVEL FIVE BLUE WIZARD!
Please ... their is definitely a creator behind this ... it could not be otherwise ...
100 i never see the unseen, but it is nice to get a taste....
The bad language rating on that might be a little extreme. But I'd love to do that!
Congratulations Doctor !
cool thing is that you can have a lens removed from your eye that allows your eye to see UV light, however it often is only done to protect vision and isn't something like plastic surgery
Very interesting, glad I subscribed when I did.
You like Carl Sagan AND He-Man. You Sir, have all the ingredients to be an awesome person!
Congrats on the Doctorate!
Great Question, and Great answer Thankyou.
Dang, I didn't know about the electrostatics part. Thanks for teaching me something!
So if sweat glows in uv, this is why bees Chase me when running
Thanks for this one! Any chance you can do one on why it takes so long for our eyes to become adjusted to the dark?
Bees really like me for some reason
Congratulations!!
Great information. Thanks
Also, subscribed
congrats!
great vid!!
Can we get an "Outtakes of 'It's okay to be smart" video?
nice :) tnx
You said we would need the right pair of eyes to see the rest of the world. What would the world look like under different types of light aside visible light and UV light?
Glory be to God all Mighty
Mustapha Berkani now, why would you say that on a science video?
To remind myself not to be arrogant.
Some make a bee simulator w/ jetpack & fuzzy costumes plz KthxBai :3
That was beautiful.
My best friend just finished her PhD in molecular biology as well! Congrats. Do you have any postdoc plans?
1.31
this is what you are looking for
~Fascinating! :) ~Thanks!
Stay this awesome guys!
wwwwwwwwooooowwwwww!!!!!
that's truly magnificent , Thanks a lot for the info.
Can you use a household vacuum in a space vacuum
Huh. I have a bee that can't fly for 2 weeks now. I was wondering how she sees me. Thanks for this video. :-)
Holy hell 10 years ago!? Lol I need another update
What is the horn-like sound at 0:17?
it's ok to bee smart
2:46 HEMAN?!?!?
beautiful images :D
Great Videos , Thanku for that. can please make video on Albert Einstein Statement on bees "If the Bee Disappeared Off the Face of the Earth, Man Would Only Have Four Years Left To Live "
The first joe vid
Now I want a bee tattoo
I hope it's FSC-certified mahogany ;)
😇😁😁😁thank you so much for this video i need to stude on sicence his helped me a lot😀😇
So weird, nottinghamscience just had a mention of the same thing.
clark kent
Thank you for your good work and informations, I notice honey bees stop forage about 11 oclock , is that depend on UVA ?, its is about 10 at that times. thank you again.
does anyone know the name of that flower that blooms in this video?
I know how mega useful bees are, but my question is what the hell is the point of wasps? They pretty much do the same thing, only wasps are nastier and don't produce honey, so what's the deal with wasps?

How so? I think he's very likeable.
This is really getting me wanting to make uv photography!! Turns out its quite expensive with lots of technical jargen im not to familier with :/
Wings Of Life!!!
like your channel thanks a lot for sharing
Doctor Joe!
make me wish i had a UV camera or something ,i would love to see just one flower from the prospective of the apis mellifera .
Are you the long-lost brother of John and Hank Green?
The Hanson Bros are just too ... Religious for my taste . Good clip mr Hanson .
this video likes me because y my science class we learnd of living beings and we are in the part of insects =)
ximena sandoval you must have been 8 years old at the time you wrote this lol
I see you have many leather-bound books.
0:26 is that a giant microbe
nice
