Sonia, great question. Anton thanks for that answer. I look forward to your take on the Great Attractor. We need to remind ourselves that there is so much we do not know.
Watching Anton's presentation made me feel that light travels really quite slowly. He said it takes light 100,000 years just to cross our galaxy, let alone cross our local group.
Fascinating presentation, Anton. As a youth, I was always amazed with the currently understood velocities at the different scales you consider here. From our velocity as we rotate around the center of the earth, to the velocity as we orbit the sun, then the galaxy, etc... all the way up to our velocity relative to the cosmic background radiation, and perhaps beyond even this.
Can’t wait for your Great Attractor vid! Been hoping you’d make one. If everything nearby is being sucked into one spot, could that potentially make one huge super galaxy sometime extremely far into the future? Unless it’s some sort of gigantic black hole, I suppose.
We are just bacteria living on a rock orbiting a star, thats floating around a galaxy, thats orbiting a supercluster, that's floating in a universe thats orbiting a multiverse, thats.... oh my pizza is here. Bye.

Indeed your are a great teacher. I'm learning more now at 48 than in my highschool days. I thought it was the sun In the center of our Galaxy, now I'm learning that it's a massive black hole in the center of our Galaxy.
I'd say this was one of the best visualizations of our place in the universe. Because most time you get to see flashy and of course beautiful images like with the Laniakea Supercluster that are indeed a bit misleading esp. when not explained properly. Thanks Anton for clearing up the confusion.

Hello wonderful Anton! I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago. I love your content. Very informative. I've always been interested in astronomy and space since I was a young kid. My dad got me into it from a young age as he was a keen amateur astronomer himself. I downloaded and installed Space Engine a week ago, it was the free 2017 version but since then my laptop keeps crashing with the Windows blue error screen always happening.

Hey anton! I dunno if you read this but if so, you really should try Elite dangerous exploring with thier dynamic galaxy map. Which means it changes the skybox depending where you are in the universe... Which makes for some of the best views in gaming.
@@lovejetfuel4071 So, then you don't believe in a starting point in time and space? How can it expand, when there wasn't a start? Also it is impossible to measure the whole size of the universe, because we cannot see more than observable universe. But we can calculate the size, once we understand every bit.
Really smart dude... nice channel. One thing I've always questioned is... how is our solar system oriented with the direction it's moving in the galaxy. Meaning which way is our north pole positioned with the direction our solar system is moving through the galaxy....
It would definitely be amazing to stand on a planet within a globular cluster or within or very near a nebula, like Orion. Although, that would easily dominate the sky making it difficult to see beyond and realizing there's an entire universe out there. Our virtual unremarkable area of the galaxy with its darker emptier space allows us to see and know way more than if we were in a globular cluster.
your videos are great. Could you sometime explain your understanding of "spacetime" such as its tension, resistance to "tearing", what king of energy do gravity waves have? or if there is even a way to describe it that way. if black holes are spinning spacetime is there a resistance?
I'd like to see a detailed presentation of our immediate neighborhood, maybe 25 to 50 to 100 lightyears, local cloud, fluff, star associationa etc. Thanks
Callz112 I think they'll be quite high, because in our own galaxy we've found tons of earth like planets so in other ones it wouldn't be much different
I’d say it depends. If you’re talking about something like the Large or Small Magellanic Clouds, which have lots of stars densely packed together, it could be difficult for life to get started since a supernova could happen very close by no matter where it tried getting a foothold. In that case, it probably has a better chance in a larger galaxy like our own. But who knows, we’ve found life here on earth in places we never expected to so I could be wrong.
I have yet to see a sci-fi film or a short, where naked eye visible stars are thousand - or more - times more numerous than what we have! The sci-fi planets tend all to have pretty much similar starry skies as we do. Also, there gotta be places where neighboring solar systems' stars are so close, they are seen bigger than just points.
Some stars can end up getting launched out of their galaxy by a supermassive black hole if they are in a binary star system in which one of the stars falls into the black hole and the other one is slingshotted out.
So if i randomly get teleported to aliens i have to say somewhere in the inner part of the 5th ring the short one almost at the end? Or should i just shut up
Anton a question why don't globular clusters implode or settle into an orbital pattern? I've read that some are composed of very old stars so I was thinking that the outer most ones would have had plenty of time to be pulled towards the center.
Hey big guy, CAN'T get enough. I'm unable to use the engine, Question : what would happen if a piece (ha ha) of a magnetar hit the earth in ONLY weird scenario anyone could postulate . Could a HOLE LOT OF STUFF happened at once and we got NICKED ? Love your LOVE of work you do !!! Good Work. see you when I'm looking at you !!! 😎
Now I'm no astrophysicist and only have a backyard understanding of that which swirls around us in the night sky. First off...I can't help but wonder what our night sky would look like if we were, say, 10,000 light years closer to Sagittarius A.... Then, I have to ponder just what the Great Attractor might be. Now...I've been following Ben Davidson (SuspiciousObservers) and Wal Thornhill and the whole concept (which I think is very sound) of the Electric Universe. Astronomers and Astrophysicists know from observation that there are great filaments...strings of galaxies and galaxy clusters...that are arranged in a pattern that looks very much like the neuropaths of the human brain. There is scientific evidence that there are Burkland currents and magnetic connections between not only our own sun and Earth but also between galaxies and clusters. These kinds of observations tend to bring to mind the Mandelbrot Set and Julian Set. I may be stretching things a bit thin here (I am, after all, just a "shade tree" physicist) but it seems to me that what we see in ourselves is also evident in the universe (or multiverse) around us. As in the Mandelbrot Set, no matter how far you zoom in or out, it all pretty much looks the same. Coincidence? I would dearly love to sit down over a pitcher (or more) of beer to discuss this subject with someone more learned that me. Mr. Davidson or Mr. Thornhill would be at the top of my guest list...but I would certainly be open to commentary with others from the science community.
The brightest thing you could possibly see while on a planet around a star is if that start was orbiting around a Quasar. A galactic black hole eruption of such proportions that it would outshine the very stars around it.
If we would sit a little bit above our orbit or plane around the galatic center, we would have a far better idea as to what our Milky Way looks like. But we sit right in the middle of alot of mass and as such we will need a few more years to better measure our surroundings. Maybe with LIGO and similar detectors we will some day have a real good idea about our place here.
We were closer to the rim AND on the opposite site of the galaxy center... I used space engine like 1 year ago and that's where the solar system was all the time. This is a Mandela effect.
My question is...if the universe is expanding...what is it expanding into? Perhaps the universe is a giant torus. A toroidal circulation (a product of a massive electromagnetic field. Much like that of a simple magnetic field.) that would place our present universe on the downward slope of the middle or outward slope of the "south" end of the torus. If we think about this...this would mean that what we know of the universe would expand (ridiculously) as it skates up the outer shell of the toroidal profile before sliding back in at the "north" end and being compacted back to a denser form at the "hub" of the torus. A rebirth. Now...I am not any kind of follower of any particular religion. However...I find it rather intriguing that the Hindu religion has a belief that the universe has, on several occasions, collapsed and restarted. A cyclical event. Could my off-the-wall hypothesis be on the trail of something?
@@rockdog2584 We have no way of answering that. I've always wondered this myself. Although, there's definitely nothing preventing it from expanding. At least nothing outside our universe. This is just a question that will go unanswered. To be honest, I've always pictured our universe as just a bubble in an ocean, this ocean being whatever it is outside our universe. That said, I don't think the universe will expand indefinitely. It'll eventually reach its peak size. Will some unknown force hold it at that size or will it quickly collapse in on itself to repeat the process? It boggles my mind. I want to know!
Hello wonderful people. Can someone explain to me how do we manage to know all this until laniakea and beyond? Did we observe this? How can we zoom out ? I mean we just took a pic of first black hole and its barely visible. Would appreciate an explanation.
galaxies are ultra big, like 100000 light years across while black holes are very compact objects (they are only big when ultra massive, but still incredibly hard to notice). I'm still amazed how big database and years of data gathering are needed to make such maps
correlation of movement and the different ways we can observe the universe, put simply. one way, for example, is to use a specific type of supernova that's quite the same through the universe and use it as a distance measurement. collect enough data, put it into one biiiig picture and keep adding data aka zooming out ^^
@@xd-qg5dz you guys are assuming the big bang only happened once and at one point but it's not the case it happened at everywhere. Also please remember that the universe doesn't expand into anything because there is nothing expand into so it expands into itself. So there is actually infinite grid filling space. I suggest you to watch PBS space they can explain it better than me.
in fact, the brightest place is when you light a small candle in your hands... ...WHILE BEING CLOSE TO THE EVENT HORIZON don't mind the image of your own candle-lit back of the head just everywhere around you
I suspect that the 'Great Attractor' has something to do with the center of gravity across the entire supercluster.I speculate that there is an unusually high concentration of matter and dark matter concentrated towards the center of the body of the supercluster.
This video has shed a lot of light as to why I am seeing maps this way. So the Milkway in and of itself is not the center of the universe, but the visible universe. So in other words, we can only see VU us VU. VU is the Visible Universe. So in other words, The big bang could have happen outside the VU! Or the Big Bang may not have happen at all, but something else, because the Universe is bigger than the VU. Can you please do another video where we are seeing the Milkway on a star in Andromeda or one the MCs or any other galaxy. Thanks
Have we found where the universe started? Can we tell the direction the bang happened at? I know we can tell movemt and how everything is spreading but can we see far enough to tell direction of the center of the universe?
The Universe is so massive we cannot even comprehend it yet, even the biggest Supercluster we are even able to comprehend currently is being pulled to something, for all we know our entire observable universe is nothing but a tiny hard to see dot inside another massive structure being pulled by something even more massive, we just dont know enough / have the technology yet
Holy shit.... Compare to this Pircture our problems are soooooooooooooooooooooo small...... But in our heads they are so big.... 🤔 Time to start otherthinking.
When I first saw maps of the large scale structure of the universe, I thought the points of light were individual galaxies. Now I learn they're galactic groups. The universe is mindfuckingly huge.

Perhaps the universe is a giant torus. A toroidal circulation (a product of a massive electromagnetic field. Much like that of a simple magnetic field.) that would place our present universe on the downward slope of the middle or outward slope of the "south" end of the torus.
If we think about this...this would mean that what we know of the universe would expand (ridiculously) as it skates up the outer shell of the toroidal profile before sliding back in at the "north" end and being compacted back to a denser form at the "hub" of the torus. A rebirth.
Now...I am not any kind of follower of any particular religion. However...I find it rather intriguing that the Hindu religion has a belief that the universe has, on several occasions, collapsed and restarted. A cyclical event. Could my off-the-wall hypothesis be on the trail of something?
Whoa dude you just blew my mind 🤤 what if our universe is just 1 atom of spit on the street? 🤔
@@rockdog2584 We have no way of answering that. I've always wondered this myself. Although, there's definitely nothing preventing it from expanding. At least nothing outside our universe. This is just a question that will go unanswered.
To be honest, I've always pictured our universe as just a bubble in an ocean, this ocean being whatever it is outside our universe. That said, I don't think the universe will expand indefinitely. It'll eventually reach its peak size. Will some unknown force hold it at that size or will it quickly collapse in on itself to repeat the process? It boggles my mind. I want to know!
Hello wonderful people. Can someone explain to me how do we manage to know all this until laniakea and beyond? Did we observe this? How can we zoom out ? I mean we just took a pic of first black hole and its barely visible. Would appreciate an explanation.
galaxies are ultra big, like 100000 light years across while black holes are very compact objects (they are only big when ultra massive, but still incredibly hard to notice). I'm still amazed how big database and years of data gathering are needed to make such maps
correlation of movement and the different ways we can observe the universe, put simply. one way, for example, is to use a specific type of supernova that's quite the same through the universe and use it as a distance measurement. collect enough data, put it into one biiiig picture and keep adding data aka zooming out ^^
Amazing vid, thanks!
Also note that this is just the observable universe I think we can safely assume that the actual universe is almost infinte indeed.
It couldn't be infinite, because that would mean the universe would be infinity years old, which it's not.
xd Not true. The universe is definitely 13.8 billion years old no matter if it keeps going past the observable universe or not.
@@OptimusGnarkill Yes but it can't possibly be currently trillions upon trillions of light years apart now.
@@OptimusGnarkill Yeah but the universe is expanding much faster than the speed of light
@@xd-qg5dz you guys are assuming the big bang only happened once and at one point but it's not the case it happened at everywhere. Also please remember that the universe doesn't expand into anything because there is nothing expand into so it expands into itself. So there is actually infinite grid filling space. I suggest you to watch PBS space they can explain it better than me.
The brightest place has to be by a supernova.
A blazar
in fact, the brightest place is when you light a small candle in your hands...
...WHILE BEING CLOSE TO THE EVENT HORIZON
don't mind the image of your own candle-lit back of the head just everywhere around you
Big bang was the brightest thing ever
I suspect that the 'Great Attractor' has something to do with the center of gravity across the entire supercluster.I speculate that there is an unusually high concentration of matter and dark matter concentrated towards the center of the body of the supercluster.
Milky Way: Heyyyy Andromeda, I'm all alone..
Andromeda:
Milky Way: I'm all done with making planets..
Andromeda:
Milky Way: ..And I'm not wearing much..
Andromeda: **z = −0.001**
Im too stupid to understand that
Andromeda galaxy -- hold my beer
Very interesting video Anton 👌
Brilliant stuff... Thanks a lot.
This video has shed a lot of light as to why I am seeing maps this way. So the Milkway in and of itself is not the center of the universe, but the visible universe. So in other words, we can only see VU us VU. VU is the Visible Universe. So in other words, The big bang could have happen outside the VU! Or the Big Bang may not have happen at all, but something else, because the Universe is bigger than the VU.
Can you please do another video where we are seeing the Milkway on a star in Andromeda or one the MCs or any other galaxy. Thanks
So our solar system is in the habitable zone of our galaxy
You have the best name on RUclips.
Hm, almost like it was intentional.
Please make a video about the great attractor.
Have we found where the universe started? Can we tell the direction the bang happened at? I know we can tell movemt and how everything is spreading but can we see far enough to tell direction of the center of the universe?
From the singularity ie everywhere. There's no center or preferred direction.
The Universe is so massive we cannot even comprehend it yet, even the biggest Supercluster we are even able to comprehend currently is being pulled to something, for all we know our entire observable universe is nothing but a tiny hard to see dot inside another massive structure being pulled by something even more massive, we just dont know enough / have the technology yet
Holy shit.... Compare to this Pircture our problems are soooooooooooooooooooooo small...... But in our heads they are so big.... 🤔 Time to start otherthinking.
I love these videos. Universe is huge
Yay! How close will Pluto and Neptune ever come to each other? Pllllz do a video on this!!
When I first saw maps of the large scale structure of the universe, I thought the points of light were individual galaxies. Now I learn they're galactic groups. The universe is mindfuckingly huge.
are there any galaxies than move into the visible horizon into the observable universe or is everything already expanding too much?
Even when shown the magnitude of the size and distance the observable universe, it is still is unfathomable.
You are a wonderful person
Love that name, Laniakea😍😍😍
