    When viewed from near a city, all the stars do look alike. In my hikes to some fairly remote areas devoid of most of the light pollution, I sometimes stretch out under the stars and that's when you really notice the differences. The night sky from an area like that is something everyone should see!

  • @DeeArtist321

    Now I wonder, what was day on Earth like when Sun was only 70% bright (if the Earth was around at all, back then!) :D
    Is our Sun getting brighter, or larger - or which one of these 2 will happen faster? Anyway, poor Mercury...
    Thank you for another excellent video!!!

    • @Quickened1
      @Quickened1 5 лет назад +4

      DeeARTIST Jewelry ...it was 70%... but I thought the same thing. Not a stretch to think our planet was much colder, dare I say, in a prolonged ice age.... Pretty hard to determine what phase our Sun is in... I'm sure science is striving to answer that very question, however, no matter what their conclusion, it is likely they'd be wrong. Time, in an astronomical sense, is measured in millions of years... It would be like predicting that next week it's going to be colder outside, by extrapolating data, from only one second of our current temperature! Just not possible in my opinion... Data collected on the Sun, for a hundred years, is but a blip in time...

      Unless it has a sufficiently massive companion that it will eventually collide with on the timescale of trillions to quadrillions of years, it's highly unlikely that any brown dwarfs will ever become stars.

      @@RawSpaceVideos Whats up Raw. Yeah, i was wondering how different atmospheres would change the way light refracts.

    • @RawSpaceVideos
      @RawSpaceVideos 5 лет назад

      @@TestTubeBabySpy With Mars, there are a couple of challenges. The low atmospheric pressure results in almost all Martian water being either frozen, or sublimed into vapor. Rainbows require refraction through material dense enough to alter the different wavelengths of light to different degrees (i.e., droplets or crystals). I suppose atmospheric ice crystals could cause a rainbow, though there is precious little water in the Martian atmosphere to freeze.
      The second challenge is the makeup of the Martian atmosphere, which is almost all carbon dioxide - which sublimes, rather than melts. There can be no CO2 droplets, and the CO2 gas is not going to form a rainbow.

    Alex, awesome presentation. I wanted to ask, you know how scientists are able to make measurements of things like the mass of a galaxy or talk about all the matter they can see not adding up to what should they see? Are they including the matter in the seemingly empty space? You mentioned the amount of stuff in the imperfect vacuum and interstellar medium. Is there a lot of heavy atoms produced in the fusion of stars that you can’t see in a telescope? I ask the universe...

    • @jasong546
      @jasong546 5 лет назад

      Green Rabbid Rabbit ,thanks. If yes, how do they include that stuff in their adding up how much mass there is in a large area like a galaxy? I am going to find something good to read about it, but maybe you can help too? Or recommend a book? When they say gas and dust, what is the dust usually made up of? Anyway, thanks for the “yes”.
