We want a video about the jellyfish UFO video. We need the science to explain how a jellyfish that big left an Aquarium and started flying around American bases randomly! Lol
Thank you both for the content!!!!! I was raised by my great-grandparents, in El Salvador they insisted so much on having a night under the stars or knowing the time just by looking at the sun without digital resources. Without a doubt, the best childhood. Thank you very much for reviving my memories. As always, a big hug. I appreciate your content a lot. Start talk 24/7/52 ❤
I know you will probably never read this, but thank you. you inspire us all to love science. I have literally cried from epiphanies I've had watching your videos on here, TikTok and anywhere else I can find your videos. You are what Bill Nye used to be, but on a whole other level. I'm trying to say, you are amazing, my whole family loves you, and you've made the world and science make sense for me.
@@janerkenbrack3373oh god, oh that’s horrible 😭😭 I’m in central Illinois (it’s important to seperate Illinois into northern, central, and southern), southern Illinois is just mainly a really dry cold rn and northern Illinois is taking the brunt of the snow… here we have both snow and dry cold 🙃
Excellent discussion Neil! It's also interesting to note that Analemmas viewed from different Earth latitudes have slightly different shapes, as do analemmas created at different times of the day. Analemmas on the other planets have different shapes entirely! 👍👍
Growing up a friend that moved to Texas for a few years before moving back to NY had a hard time estimating the time of day and blamed it on latitude and time zones.
Of course if you really want to use the shadow of the sun to get the correct time, you also need to consider your longitude on the earth. For example, the Pacific Time Zone here in the US on the west coast is "nominally" from W 120 degrees to W 135 degrees. That's 15 degrees, or one whole hour difference from one side of a time zone to the other. So, best case, for the Sun to be directly overhead at noon (Standard time), you'd have to be at exactly W 120 degrees. Since the Earth rotates at about 15 degrees per hour, if you're out at the North Oregon Coast, you're at about W 123 degrees, the sun will be overhead 3/15 of an hour, or 12 minutes later than at the nominal start of the Pacific time zone at W 120 degrees. So sunset, and there are some real beauties out over the Pacific Ocean, is also 12 minutes later. Plus or minus the Analemma effect.
It was updated for the same reason that made Michael Jackson get new ID and drivers license when his face became white. All colors need to be current and up-to-date.
In the movie Cast Away, Tom Hank's character keeps a calendar in his cave where a bit of light peaks through a hole. That was the first time I realized it, or it finally clicked, that the path created the figure eight shape, and I'm 42 years old.
In watchmaking this is called “equation of time” and some _really_ expensive watches will have the plus-minus minutes indicator for it. I’ve always wanted a watch with this complication!
I'm having that "Prestige" moment, where I go back and re-think everything that came before. I remember seeing that figure 8 loop on SO MANY maps, globes, and charts. NEVER KNEW WHAT IT WAS FOR OR WHERE IT CAME FROM!!! My brain is doing that 3rd-act twist memory replay for the span of 40 YEARS! Mind beyond blown
I heard that from the Analema you can learn the tilt of the axis of your planet plus your latitude (given that you know all the analemas in all the latitudes of such planet)
The Analemma, always fascinating, I know an ancient one on the floor under Palazzo della regione porches, beside the Piazza del Duomo, in the città alta of Bergamo in Italy.
The phenomenon of shorter and longer days is primarily due to the axial tilt of the Earth as it orbits around the Sun. This tilt, approximately 23.5 degrees, causes different parts of the Earth to receive varying amounts of sunlight throughout the year. During summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun, resulting in longer daylight hours and shorter nights. Conversely, during winter, the North Pole tilts away from the Sun, leading to shorter days and longer nights. This cycle continues as the Earth travels along its elliptical orbit, influencing not only the length of day but also our seasonal climates. Considering this intricate dance of celestial mechanics, how might our perception of time change if the Earth's axial tilt were to shift significantly?
Wow! My first comment on my favorite show by my favourite scientists for 6 years now . The cartoon part made me type 😅 it totally blew me, . 🎉 More to that. MY GOD! Do I ever watch anything else but this channel? To who it was laid, We are a startup company in Nigeria soliciting for a grant. Thank you 😊
You missed the role that the tilt of the earth plays in the making of the analemma. In fact, its effect is bigger than that of the earth speeding up and slowing down in its orbit.
I love this. I've never watched Star Talk before. I built a 10" f/6 with a Paul McCoy mirror in 1992 and as of now am about 25 observing sessions from 1,000, a goal I have for 2024. My obsession as a telescope observer (Naturalist of the Night Sky, I like to say) has made me into an autodidact of sorts about many aspects of astronomy, physics and cosmology. One interesting thing that you guys could have added, perhaps to the detriment of your Christmas origin story, is that the date of earliest sunset (which varies around the earth) is, for example, around December 8, at 40 degrees N latitude. The date of latest sunrise seems to be around January 8th through 10th. Understanding this requires a somewhat more nuanced explanation of the basic principles of celestial mechanics you explain (you geniuses-- I hate you) while making fun of them, but would be worthwhile. Think about it. I like it.
Thank you for the real history of Christmas. I always suspected that Jesus wasn't born on December 25, and that that day was chosen by the religious leaders for very specific reasons.
The variation in the length of the solar day is also affected by the tilt of the earth on its axis. The rate of change of the sun's longitude varies according to the amount of latitudinal movement, which is at a maximum at the equinoxes and zero at the solstices.
Great vidio, i tracked the sun shining through a spot on the window as it shined over my train layout and placed toothpicks on an angle to the sun and over a year i got a figure 8 to my surprise but found that the tight 8 at its top , that being most of jan. Neet .Thanks for the morning coffee...
You know. When we were kids and checking the sun for a rough idea of the time we got it right. Rough idea being the operative description. It was good enough to tell us when to start making tracks for home. Its only civilisation that needs more exactness.
at the equator and in the band around it enclosed by the point furthest from the equator that points at the sun directly, has three "solstices" one at the maximum height which is pretty much straight up, one at the lowest point in the north and one at the lowest point in the south, but secretly our solstices is the two low points at the equator and the highest point isn't a solstice at all because the sun just keeps going it only stops at the lowest points in the sky. so as you travel from the pole to the equator and to the other pole, the path of the sun at its maximum height per day across a year becomes a line that is at the pole a line from bellow the horizon to some maximum, then as you walk down towards the equator, the line climbs higher and and higher in the sky until you can see both a maximum and a minimum, that is the polar circle where you no longer have a period in winter where the sun never comes up, you keep on walking until you see the line reach directly above you, that is when you are walking into the band around the equator where the sun can be directly upwards from the ground, you keep walking until the middle of the line is directly above, that is the equator, and now if you keep walking you will see all the same things happen to the line in reverse as you travel towards the other pole. if you instead look at the sun at noon you will see this figure 8 shape, it will not be symmetrical necessarily at the equator, because the shape of it at the equator depends the orientation of the tilt relative to the eccentricity of the orbit. when the earth is in the position closest to the sun, the earth might be tilted in any which way and to any degree, the current shape is down to the correspondence between tilt and eccentricity, which changes over time, due to precession, and other phenomena of orbital mechanics, related to the sun, moon and other planets. think about this chuckie boy, the earth is not quite round, it has a bulge like a tidal bulge, but circularly symmetric instead of linear, this is because it rotates, that bulge is acted upon in the same way as the tidal bulge is by the moon and sun driving the moon away and stealing angular momentum from the earth into the earth moon , and earth sun system. but for this bulge it is being torqued in a different way, it is being torqued in a way that wants to place the equatorial buldge directly towards the sun, and so it is rotating and being torqued in many different ways, by many different bodies, and at the same time it has a non circular shape, and so it precesses around in a funny way, but very slowly, so the tilt, the orientation of the tilt, and the eccentricity off the earth changes slowly over time, that means that this analemma also changes over time, which is even cooler.
So I was noticing how the sun has been hiding out even on sunny days in a more southern sky. In November I had moved my shy plants that were north east near front of house into a more open space in the front yard because rhe dear sun wasn't peeking at them anymore and they needed the sunshine! I noticed in December how dark certain parts of the yard became because rhe sun was staying so low all day. Yet, it was frying my plants that faced more south and slightly west. I had to move my aloe plants AWAY from their southern windows or they got sun burned in December! OK. It all makes more sense! 😊
….or why I have looked up solar noon. Because I like to know when the sun is as high as it gets for mountain biking in a forest. I mean when you want to go fast, the light can be a real problem.
the people living at the equator when looking at solstices :) chin up lad. some region around the equator has to such that the sun is sometimes straight above you, sometimes towards the north and sometimes towards the south, but only two lines not at the equator has only north or only south, but also straight above. strange stuff indeed. geometry is cool. its the tilt of the earth, it makes it so that there is a band some distance north and south from the equator, where each point can point at the sun at some point in the orbit but not always, the point on the earth that points directly at the sun, is always moving, drawing a line that over enough time covers the whole band around the equator. this band also changes with the precession of the earth when it changes its tilt over time, mechanics is cool.
CP time is like what they say about Filipino time. It's important not to generalize or make assumptions about an entire group of people based on stereotypes. Each person has their own unique characteristics and behaviors, and it's unfair to attribute certain traits to an entire culture or nationality.
Traditionally, “CP time” is aligned with African Americans. It’s a phrase, that we originated, to generalize OURSELVES b/c as a people b/c we seemed to always be late LOL. I promise you, Neil and Chuck weren’t generalizing all races/ethnicities of color. They were making fun of themselves as African Americans and it wasn’t meant to extend to other people of color. I understand and agree with your viewpoint about generalizing a group of people. However, being an African American myself, I can attest that we don’t take offense to the term nor feel slighted as an individual in any way. If we want our folks somewhere on time (not CP time)… we tell them it starts 30 mins early or we’ll say “look we’re not operating on CP time today. If you’re late, the doors will be locked and will not reopen” 😂 Again, I agree with your statement, but that’s now they intended that phrase to come across 🙂
i noticed this way back in hs. I could tell the time of day by the sun to some degree, but i was always a bit off and never knew why. The other kids thought it was magic or that i had a hidden clock or something.
Great but you didn't touch the gnomen. Is there such a thing as plasma chemistry? Where plasmas of different types can be mixed to result in another product?
Surprised that Neil left out the role of the Earth's tilted axis in creating the analemma. The tilt determines the height of the" "8", while the elliptical orbit produces the width of the "8".
i had one question, The transformer has time as a factor in its formula, you can use Einstein's formula for time and only theoretically build a travo so high and perfect that you use the mass of the earth as an energy source
CP TIME practical application: I was a news photographer in Tallahassee FL. I covered events at FSU (Florida state univ) and FAMIU (FL A&M univ). In order to arrive. at events at FAMU at an appropriate time i needed to be sware and adjust for CP time. FAMIU announced when the doors opened so that people could arrive and socialize during set up etc. So they didn’t actually start the event late There was simply a cultural difference in the publicized starting time. Knowing that you could adjust your arrival accordingly.
Have You Ever Used An Analemma to Tell Time?
Every year Summer Solstice and the day of the earliest sunrise being different.
We want a video about the jellyfish UFO video. We need the science to explain how a jellyfish that big left an Aquarium and started flying around American bases randomly! Lol
Like Chuck said, "it's completely new."
Sounds to much of a Dilemma
Not familiar with an Analemma, but I know her cousin, which is a Dilemma.
I wish I had these conversations at school when I was little. 33yo now and I love learning with these two guys. 🥰
School was a program used to keep us dumb
Me too ! And I’m 60 . I have definitely learned more from these 2 men than I did in school.

I was about to comment about the fixed time offset due to longitude location but you did an eloquent explanation of it. Thanks.

i noticed this way back in hs. I could tell the time of day by the sun to some degree, but i was always a bit off and never knew why. The other kids thought it was magic or that i had a hidden clock or something.
Great but you didn't touch the gnomen.
Is there such a thing as plasma chemistry?
Where plasmas of different types can be mixed to result in another product?
A lot of jewels in this one
awesome consciousness
Surprised that Neil left out the role of the Earth's tilted axis in creating the analemma. The tilt determines the height of the" "8", while the elliptical orbit produces the width of the "8".
i had one question, The transformer has time as a factor in its formula, you can use Einstein's formula for time and only theoretically build a travo so high and perfect that you use the mass of the earth as an energy source

CP TIME practical application:
I was a news photographer in Tallahassee FL. I covered events at FSU (Florida state univ) and FAMIU (FL A&M univ). In order to arrive. at events at FAMU at an appropriate time i needed to be sware and adjust for CP time. FAMIU announced when the doors opened so that people could arrive and socialize during set up etc. So they didn’t actually start the event late There was simply a cultural difference in the publicized starting time. Knowing that you could adjust your arrival accordingly.
