      That's because it's the same, just on another scale.
      As a baby you know nothing, and your home is your world. As a young kid you start to understand your town/city. Then the planet. Then our Sun and our neighboring planets ... and if you show interest, that 'zooming out' of scale never ends.

    The concept of time dilation near black holes always blows my mind. It's mind-bending to think about how time can slow down near such immense gravitational fields. Black holes truly bend the rules of our familiar reality.

    • @Mike__B
      @Mike__B Год назад +92

      Time dilation occurs near ever gravitational body, hell GPS satellites need to be programmed to deal with it because time ticks differently on Earth than it does for things orbiting Earth, granted the amount is absolutely minuscule but for something that requires high precision clocks to help triangulate where you are it absolutely is necessary.

      There's a limit to how much you can improve something.
      The animation will likely reach peak quality and after that it either stays that way or you change the style but it won't be the same.
      Also top quality animation takes way too much time which maybe is worth it.

They somehow manage to keep their charming characteristic style, while making their science videos a full art piece.

    Space is terrifying. Beautiful, but terrifying. Ever since I first learned of quasars, I've wondered if some day Earth might get blasted by the polar jets from a quasar. We'd have no way to detect it, much less defend ourselves from it. Too often it feels like we are a sitting duck in a sea of violent chaos.

      We'd have to live another 15,000 years or so, and continue of the same level of exponential in technology we have been in since the Industrial Revolution, to even come close to being able to observe deep space phenomena in real time. It will probably take us another 2000 years or so just to be able to get a vessel safely to another system, such as Alpha Centauri. The only way to get the speed would be thermo fusion engines, with stellar nagivation able to see and avoid any rubble entirely, some form of huge stellar shield AND enough living space to provide for multiple generations of travellers, as it would still take dozens if not hundreds of years to get there.
      But yes. There is no chance in hell we live that long. If the 55 degrees Summers, failures of crops, 90% ocean coverage and all out nuclear war doesn't get us ... the mosquitos will. Eventually. It's only a matter of time...

      Remember there's no obligation to concern yourself with any of that stuff. This knowledge is not beneficial to your daily life in any way. If it hurts your brain and makes you feel small just stop. We often feel responsible to stay informed about the world around us, or we fear getting ridiculed for being less educated. But we're first and foremost responsible for ourselves, and we can chose what seems beneficial to us and what does not. You deserve to concentrate on the things that make you feel great not small.

    It's hard to imagine, but one of my favourite parts about this is that, if you pointed a quasar at an entire galaxy, it would be shredded apart by the massive radiation beam coming off of the accretion disk. We like to think about powerful anime characters throwing attacks that split worlds but imagine a single blast that even just lightly strobing for one or two passes capable of not only shreding every habitable world unlucky enough to have a line of sight with it, but literally capable of cooking a star and shunting enough mass off of it that it could go extinct. Of course it would take hundreds of thousands of years just for the blast wave to reach their targets but this would be doom to an entire sci-fi universe by itself

    I'm curious what the collision path of Andromeda and the milky way looks like. The math behind such an event sounds incalculable between the numbers of stars, their positions, and the relativistic speeds of these galaxies.
    Heck, we still can't even account for how galaxies are holding together as our current theories show that there is a severe lack of matter for it to work, so we have stop-gap theories like dark matter to fill the void (hehe) until we have a clear picture.

    • @LuQing

      It could be that one does not understand the lonely parts of the galaxys, but the galaxys as an object. Like when we see a balloon as an object and not as a sub-object with air, witch is also made up of different gases, you also get the same result.
      So you can also imagine the galaxy as an single object and calculate as an single object.
