    Kudos to the sound design!
    I've really been a stickler for decent sound design on RUclips lately, and you not only have phenomenally clean recording and mixing, but the sound effects, like the rumbling when we see a star in full render, are brilliantly subtle and add so much. Keep it up!!

  • @Yamyatos
    @Yamyatos 6 лет назад +1

    I knew a lot about this process but i was completely mind blown that we use the difference in red shift of the light source as a way to get information about the planet. I mean.. planets are tiny, and their influence on their start is tiny. Sure in kilometers it's probably noticable, but to think that we are able to detect this small difference in distance, over a distance of 40 lightyears just blew my mind.

    This video's quality is outstanding, the animation is super helpful to understand all the explanation and alongside the editing and narration it makes it much more pleasant and interesting to watch and learn. Thank you for making such high quality content. I'd love to see more space related content in the future, even if the animation is not as complex, as i imagine this kind of video must take you a lot of time and effort to produce which isn't ideal if you want to make them somewhat often.

    • @tristanmoller9498
      @tristanmoller9498 6 лет назад

      Because often the discoveries are just to mindblowing to be believed. So dissecting them like this really brings you closer to what is actually happening at the telescope and what scientists actually do. That makes it kind of “touchable”

  • @ethanrowland3650
    @ethanrowland3650 6 лет назад +2

    Great vid! I have one question, however. In science class I was taught that the first exoplanets were discovered around pulsars by using the doppler effect. Pulsars rotate very quickly and emit radio waves at consistent frequencies, allowing scientists to detect changes in the frequency of these waves due to the star shifting due to orbiting the center of mass alongside a planet due to the doppler effect. Pulsars are essentially the ultra-dense cores of stars many times the mass of our sun and do not emit visible light, and thus the systems that they are a part of are not comparable to our own solar system. Just for clarification, did you leave this method out of the video because the pular systems are not as comparable to our solar system because the sun isn't a pulsar? Thanks!

    @maarten.k8347 6 лет назад

    Hey Real Engineering,
    I've watched the video but I'm still wondering how your calculation at around 3:20 came around. You suggest that the orbit of the earth around our sun is a perfect circle and in that case the equation Ds=Au/Tan(p) would be good. But in reality the earth doesn't have a perfect round orbit so in that case the distance AU won't be the same. So my question is, do these astronomers really use this equation or is there a nuance in the calculation?

    • @aryanandaleebazim823
      @aryanandaleebazim823 3 года назад

      with 0.017 eccentricity, earth's orbital deflation is about negligible, that's why it almost doesn't matter. And yes, there is nuance in almost every calculation in astronomy. As far as I know, they calculate an error range for every value they plug into an equation other than the fixed universal constants
