Very cool, Anton! I know we’re built from “billion year-old carbon” (Joni Mitchell) but that this carbon came from inter-galactic space truly blows my mind! ❤️
It’s mind blowing to think of all the processes involved that got a carbon atom that was flowing intergalactically billions of years ago to eventually end up as part of a strand of DNA in your body .
Cause of intergalactic particles in our body? Its interesting when you think about it. Ultimately every fundamental particle in the universe came from the same point at the big bang. So in a way its hard to argue why different particles should belong or originate in different galaxies. Through their entire journey they may be fused into another particle in a sun in one galaxy and split by a black hole in another before being flung to another galaxy to be lodged in a neutron star that blew up and shot the particle here to make up 1/1000000000 of my toenail. All we go by is their most recent journey since their last transformation.
See, that’s the bean consuming flora in your gut controlling your behavior, telling you to eat more beans and make juvenile fart jokes.

My aunt had a first hand experience of a carbon travelling through her body. She took off her jewelry as she usually does to cook and a diamond earring inadvertently ended up in the salad that she ate.
Now I've got the Crosby, Stills and Nash song Woodstock (written by Joni Mitchel) on my brain, which I'm quite happy about ,,, and I DO have to get back to the garden, as it happens...

👋 Hello, wonderful Anton To answer your question: No, i never wanted to travel THAT far. Very interessant, again. Fuel for my bored brain. Thank you for your exiting channel.
I seem to recall Joni Mitchell saying "we are stardust. We are golden, we are billion year-old carbon, and we've got to make our way back to the garden".
Niiice. Im working on a very big ToE and this is one of the things Ive been looking for. Wasn't sure exactly what would be there but I was certain it would be.
In pantheism we always believed the universe is God prima facie. Stardust. The signature of life, amino acids, can be found in the interstellar medium. Thanks Anton for this illuminating video.
The idea of transitioning from a money-based economy to a resource-based economy for collective goals, like colonizing the solar system, is a visionary and complex proposition Money serves as a universal incentive system, aligning diverse goals. Moving away from it would require redefining motivation and collaboration.
Isaac Arthur has an excellent video about the phosphorus problem. In a Type II supernova a just created (by the r-process) silicon-31 atom must absorb a neutron in exactly the right spot. This neutron is unstable and emits an electron thus making it a proton creating stable phosphorus-31. Because of this phosphorus is rare.
What if all that carbon is being used to make graphene space stations by aliens hiding on the outskirts of the galaxy...I mean its not particularly reflective and would just look like a cloud dust that periodically forms stars!
Well, you need to replay the video and listen carefully. He does offer a pretty good explanation. Remember too, he reporting science news, and not necessarily endorsing the findings published.
@@stargazer5784 To clarify, that was a comment I made before listening the video. I was writing this to tell what interested me in clicking the video in the first place. I didn't intend to imply it did not answer my question
Could it be that the places such as astro physical jets and the super heated periphery close to the rim of a super massive black hole, where we know that conditions are so extreme as to cause the dissolution of matter, are the source of galactic recycling? Somehow, matter, having been decomposed, can somehow condense into the simplest element, hydrogen, as building material for new stars.
Even if you know we're stardust, it's a mindblowing experience to just think about it for a while. Add to it cosmic mega-currents of charged particles and plasma physics, and you arrive at the Plasma Universe - I hope we're finally going to adapt some form of it and give more credit to Hannes Alfven.
@@douglaswilkinson5700 But lots of it is ionized - only then it can be influenced by electromagnetic fields. Space is filled with high energy photons and particles ionizing intergalactic matter to plasma, which allows forming filamentary structures.
@koczisek It all began with Anton saying stardust. In astrophysics dust consists of silicon, iron, various molecules, etc. Carl Sagan said -- in 1973 -- that we are made of starstuff which includes hydrogen, oxygen and a few other gasses. In day to day conversation it makes no difference. In astrophysics it does. Definitions matter.
This episode was as well done as any of yours, but the mind-bombs were turned up to eleven. Firstly, it seems researchers are slicing away significant portions of the missing mass that justifies the existence of dark matter. Is the Emperor wearing no clothes? There's no way of knowing at this point, but it's exciting to see this unfold. Second, the question of the relationship between a gas cloak and the health of its galazy seems to raise questions. Which is the cause, and which is the effect? Is the abundance of gas keeping the galaxy healthy, or does a thriving galaxy simply feeding the gas cloak? I had to spend thirty minutes cleaning my desk and monitor, after my head exploded. Thank you, Anton. Happy birthday. Keep breathing.
Galactic scale, time and mind expansion, how wonderful! So a few detectable elements hint that halo gas-matter circulation is great importance to galactic evolution, and our biology. What is the full composition of halo matter, how does this relate to hypothesized "Dark Matter" of gravitational anomaly fame?
I am seeing a lot of convergent information about how the cosmos evolved, and it is my belief that the the POP 3 stars were hardly around for more than a few seconds, and most of the matter and atoms in the cosmos were formed as the first energy began to cool, falling into massive clumps that had just enough space to rebound into the accelerating dimension of space forming as all of matter began to react to itself- like popcorn in a huge popper it blew itself everywhere as the heat had new space to grow into.
Interesting questions arise though. How much is just general accretion from gas that fell back into and likely through the galactic plane vs how much is also picked up via accretion as the star system (and likely nebula that originated it) pass above and below the galactic plan vs galactic mergers dragging the gasses along in even greater bursts? Just for starters, then accretion rates at different stages of star system development and more.
It's a bit of a come down to realise that the astonishing set of conditions that resulted in our existences has to be weighed against working at some rubbish job to pay bills.
Too many frakking adverts tonight. I don’t mind a couple, but two adverts every three minutes is too many. I’ll come back and finish this after RUclips goes home and rethinks its life.
The early super giant blue stars use the CNO (carbon-nitrogen-oxygen) fusion cycle. Since they have relatively short lifespans compared to the main sequence stars, they end up going supernova. Without them doing that, we wouldn't have the heavier elements. Kinda makes one wonder if the very early universe would sound like popcorn popping with those super giant stars going pop-pop-pop (providing, of course, if the energy bursts could be translated into sound waves that we could hear and also sped up so that what happened over hundreds of millions, if not billions, of years could be listened to).
This is remarkable. To think that all the carbon atoms in us have been around for longer than the solar system. The photons from the sun are about a million years old + 8 minutes.

The stars are matter, we are matter, but it doesn't matter- Dan V Vliet (aka cap'n Beefheart).

Another fun fact is that somewhere between 30 and 50% of the water we drink comes from the interstellar medium and predates the birth of the sun.
Little nit-pick: Carl Sagan didn't say "we are stardust". He said "we are star stuff". Joni Mitchell said "we are stardust".
Sometimes the gas comes out of me.

Lack of Phosphorus in space then expected is either evidence against life in the universe or evidence of life . If something obsorbing it

This neutron is unstable and emits an electron thus making it a proton creating stable phosphorus-31. Because of this phosphorus is rare.
They now think a lot of heavy elements actually come from neutron star mergers with only some from supernova.
So when supernovae happen, the heavy elements get ejected from the main disc and then return through the halo flow. Very cool
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Wow. Amazing discovery. Wonder what happens if/when our atoms are quantumly entangled with other atoms in other beings?
Quantum entanglement is a state that's _easily_ broken. Any particle interacting with life will lose entanglement as soon as its perturbed.

Has the mass of the surrounding cloud of dust been factored into when using dark matter to explain the galaxy rotation speed anomaly?
So from the perspective of the star forming galaxy, what’s driving the structure of this, is it related to the central black hole?
Isn't it just that the galaxies are just a lot bigger than the disks we see because they have essentially their own galactic Oort clouds?
