Whoa, the production values on this are pretty crazy. What could have been a pretty typical advanced-slideshow is elevated a lot by the motion graphics you've got going on here. I like it.
Thanks! I’ve seen my fair share of videos that are plenty-well researched, but don’t put the time into presentation and it does such a disservice to the information and the audience. It’s not always easy, but I try to not fall into that trap.
Wow, this is the most creatively constructed video of any space media I have ever watched. The style of your editing and all the animation is superb and super professional. Great work!
This is by far the best video on anything science related I’ve seen in 5 years. The sound track, animation, narration, and length of video. Keep it up!
You forgot one possibility, one that quite recently has gained some traction. Being that the planets start of chaotic and all over the place, and influence and push and pull each others orbit in some kind of planetary musical chair. where over time only the ones that find a 'pretty stabile' orbit (or that clear their local area) remain. This effect is stronger the closer they are to the sun and each other due to more interactions with each other, thus Sedna, being far away from the sun and other large planetary bodies, still hasn't 'settled down' yet (and probably never really will, its orbit is just way too slow and far from any large planets)
I really like the "accessed 2022" combined with the dates of documents that have released data. Due to constant re-defining definitions in the field, I cannot stress the importance of the "point of access" which most Astronomy channels ignore (and especially channels that put a "spin on space" to give it more clickable pizzazz, though, ironically for them, this format is "providing the latest"). Everything else is really well produced! Thank you for your hard work!
Thanks! I was a bit more loose with my citations a couple of years ago, but one of the odd challenges of working on videos for as long as I do is that you notice some sources changing out from under you before the video’s even finished. So it’s become increasingly important to me that information carries a certain standard of transparency when possible.
So glad to see you again, I thought of your channel earlier today and wondered when the last vid was. I’m no longer into TMR or any of Brian’s stuff, but your content is still fire.
The whole planet vs. not a planet thing is ridiculous, they should all just be included as planets, dwarf distinction aside, it's a world that orbits our sun.
I feel like you're just pushing the problem down the road a little bit (making new edge cases at a smaller size, Pluto's tiny), unless you're advocating that every speck of dust in orbit around a star be considered a planet which would be a bit silly and I'm sure that's not what you mean. Definitions are really useful! It's why we have so many. I've read folks advocating for a sort of cultural/colloquial use of planet that is a distinct or notable body in orbit of a star (which sounds like your suggestion), while scientific use of planet is more strictly confined; but that's just how language works already, so in a way there is no vs, both exist for the situations that call for them.
It's not the most interesting body surface wise, its orbit is really interesting though. Missions would take hundreds of years on a good transfer window
That's a good question because the orbit takes so long that we can't directly observe a full orbit in our lifetime. I'm not an astrophysicist, but if I had to guess how they do it, it just comes down to multiple observations. From that you can determine Sedna's position, speed, and trajectory. If it has a satellite then you can determine its mass, but Sedna doesn't so I'm guessing instead you determine upper and lower limits on its size and mass based on observations. Now that you have all of these details, you can calculate its orbit because we have a pretty solid understanding of the major bodies in our solar system. So basically you can use math to determine that a body the size and speed of Sedna shouldn't reach escape velocity from the solar system, at least not any time soon.
Thanks! Currently I make music from the show downloadable through patreon, this video's music will probably get posted in the next day or so, but I'll consider also offering them through bandcamp as an alternative.
corrections:
- On the diagram at 4:00, the labels for sedna's periapsis and apoapsis are mistakenly swapped. _(noticed by CatKhakis)_

Babe get up new Emergent Beacon just dropped

That’s high praise, thanks a bunch!

That’s super kind of you to say, thank you!
What's great is that by 2076 there will be a much more powerful telescope to most likely see fine details of Sedna.
Honestly, I just love saying Sedna. Try it, everyone.
Sedna.
Sedna.
It’s an oddly cozy word.
It makes good mouth shapes tbh. The d and n are almost the same sound so they sort of melt together. It's got a nice rhythm, too.
Sedna.

Very good video! I love the classic sci-fi style! The Sedna orbit IS INSANE!! So odd things & discovery these days blow my mind!!😲
You make such beautiful videos

One of the best videos I've ever seen on way distant Sedna yet. Great work! 👍
We need MORE from Brandt. Thank you for this.
So glad to see you again, I thought of your channel earlier today and wondered when the last vid was. I’m no longer into TMR or any of Brian’s stuff, but your content is still fire.
Very serendipitous! I don’t post as often as I’d like, but I try to make it count when I do.
I had honestly forgotten this channel in the daily stress.. seems it's time to binge watch the channel... Again!
The edits in this video are amazing👏🏻
Wow that’s so awesome! Our solar system is full of such amazing wonders.
Very nicely produced video, suscribed.
This is such a quality video!!
This channel is highly underrated
Just like Melodysheep this is amazing high quality content!
this guy deserves more subs no cap
I can't believe this got less than million views ur soo underrated

You should do more of those
These graphics are beautiful.
Love the editing!
Shouldnt apoapsis and periapsis be swapped at 4:00? Apologies whether I'm right or wrong lol!
Damn, you're totally right. Thanks for the correction!
Of course!! Extremely well produced video 👏👏👏 that simulation of the solar system is absolute eye candy
meant colour changing cc
so cool
Wanted to say I’m here before you reach 1m subs
We're here before he at 10k. Which is criminally low.
Glad that Sedna is coming towards us; I hope someone or some organization sends probes at it before it is catapulted back out of the heliosphere.
this looks amazing
Missions should be send on sedna to see what is on it
Rocks and ice. Not much else.
It's not the most interesting body surface wise, its orbit is really interesting though. Missions would take hundreds of years on a good transfer window
how can we be sure that it is following that elliptical orbit and its not only passing by the sun just once before disappear behind it forever?
That's a good question because the orbit takes so long that we can't directly observe a full orbit in our lifetime. I'm not an astrophysicist, but if I had to guess how they do it, it just comes down to multiple observations. From that you can determine Sedna's position, speed, and trajectory.

3:40 LOL
This planet is crazy
Are you planning on releasing the music tracks on bandcamp? The music is such a mood.
Thanks! Currently I make music from the show downloadable through patreon, this video's music will probably get posted in the next day or so, but I'll consider also offering them through bandcamp as an alternative.
I'm inclined to go with Mike Brown on this one. I expect we'll find Planet Nine pretty soon.
I hope so! That would certainly be an exciting discovery.
Fun fact: from Sedna’s perspective complex civilization isn’t even half a year old.
That is fun! It's been an eventful Sednian year.
I hope to see her 2076.
For some reason, these videos remind me of early Pink Floyd. Especially that sonar ping near the beginning. That just screams "Echos" to me.
Some of the shots (mostly at the beginning) look a lot like they are shot in Space Engine.
Edit: Ah the outro says so as well, guess I wasn't crazy.
Good eye! This was my first time using SE, but it was essential for this video-super helpful.
영상 퀄리티 미쳤다. 이게 왜 아직 3천 뷰밖에 안 되는 지 의문이다.
wait i didn't notice it has collar clwosea
dude how tf do you have only 9k subs? like actually holy shit. i legit this has better production than 1 million sub youtubers lol
Thanks! I think it’s just a matter of volume. I prioritize quality over quantity when possible which leads to a slower build on RUclips.
Bro im just normal dwarft planet!
Sedna is not a normal dwarft planet, sedna is scary.
