No person has ever been there in history. That’s crazy. I have always wanted to see a video of the surface of a comet and I never thought I’d be able to. This is beautiful.
100% Agree, an unbelievable achievement and technical marvel. Although we have landed countless robots on many solar system objects, this one in particular seems hauntingly beautiful given the loneliness and journey of comets.
Honestly if i were a roch person in the future id definitely invest in asteroid mining. The untold resources found in them could easily advance our civilization
Thats a deep space cold but also the cold of being on an alien environment that has no knowledge or trace of life. Even a mars sunset is more hospitable.
Its so lonely yet so beautiful not to mention it is ROCK that isn't from earth which is amazing plus this thing has existed for thousand to hundreds if not millions of years, this is the first time its ever be observed on its surface
@@cauliflowerpower1025 I know but the footage from the moon didn't look like that. Other videos from space don't look like that. This comet though is just pure static, looks like one of the robot-taken videos inside the Fukushima reactor.
Wait till you hear that the cliffs in this video are 900 M in height. The statue of Liberty in comparison is only 90 M. The "boulders" are the size of large buildings in this picture.
This is orders of magnitude more difficult than landing on the moon from a technical perspective. Like, not even close. You're comparing landing on a huge object that's essentially stationary and very close to us, to an object that's tiny, moving incredibly quickly and is incredibly far away.

Justo cuando alcé la vista, luego de aterrizar, un cúmulo de estrellas, una flor de luz en la oscuridad, se escondía detrás de lo que supongo era, no sé bien cómo llamarlo, ¿una montaña? del cometa. Donde yo estaba la luz evaporizaba el suelo y mi traje tan sólo me protegería algunos segundos. Debía moverme lento. Un paso de fuerza desmedida y nada evitaría que saliera disparado hacia el espacio. Reconozco que me tentaba la idea: saltar hacia el vacío y pasar los últimos días de mi vida viendo un cometa despedazarse lentamente en chorros de gas y vapor por la radiación del Sol. ¿Por qué ir a morir a la superficie de un planeta? Pues, la urdiembre de la existencia es un misterio. Ciertamente palpita algo más que nuestros corazones aquí dentro. Pensaba que sí, pero ya lo veo: que no he venido hasta aquí a escribir la historia, ni dar un pequeño paso para el hombre, ni uno grande para la humanidad. O, tal vez sí. Tal vez el paso grande para la humanidad sea venir hasta aquí, contemplar un cometa girar en el vacío cósmico a quinientos millones de kilómetros de la Tierra y luego morir. ¿Cuánta literatura se hará sobre lo que vi, o por qué lo hice, sin que nunca puedan saber el por qué o los cómo? No es ciencia lo que haré, o, al menos, no la de los instrumentos y las verdades, aunque reconozco que sin ella no hubiera podido nunca llegar hasta aquí. Al menos no vistiendo la carne. Ya vine en sueños, pero no se puede decir que algo es cierto cuando no se maneja el lenguaje por el cual debiese narrarse la experiencia onírica, el lenguaje que lee y habla el que vive los sueños. Por lo tanto, soy analfabeto de lo onírico. En cambio, ahora, en la carne, protegido por un traje espacial, he decidido traicionar la misión. Seré el Judas de los astronautas. Vine hasta aquí a recolectar muestras y hacer experimentos y se supone debía volver. Pero no. Yo vine aquí a morir. No lo sabía, pero ahora lo sé. ¡Supieran ustedes cómo se ve el cielo desde aquí! Y como es cuando amanece, cómo el cometa entero se retuerce y arroja su alma de elementos gaseosos hacia el espacio infinito. ¡Ah! Todo es demasiado bello. No vale la pena volver. Así que me despido. Daré un salto y me quedaré dormido, arrullado por la madre noche toda la eternidad. Tal vez algún día me encuentren y, les juro, en mi rostro congelado, momificado por el tiempo del vacío, habrá una linda, fantasmagórica sonrisa. Pido, por favor, que no me rescaten mis restos. Déjenme allí, dormido para siempre, que tras mis párpados de hielo, un cometa y su coqueta cola, giran y giran por siempre.
Reminds me of Jules Verne's 1870s fantasy "Off on a Comet". Whisked off the Earth by a cometary collision, a group of humans figure out how to survive on a comet bearing a chunk of uplifted terrestrial crust--until it returns to Earth a year later.
It feels so cold and lonely. At the same time seeing this is like a fantasy movie, like if you see an alien. It’s like you’re trying to look for another life forms, it looks like earth.
Why does this footage is only a few seconds long if the real video was 20 minutes long? I'd like to see a not so fast clip, so i can observe the details better
There was no "video". Someone on Twitter created this by sequencing several of ESA's images together. Each image had several minutes of exposure time, hence why so few were taken in the span of 20 minutes.
how about that.... that is not just a comet, its a whole world! A small world, but a world nonetheless. It's better than any hollywood, award-winning cinema by a long shot made of lightyears! I mean the star cluster in the background, the mountains and the shadows and rocks, this is too perfect!
If you slow it down to 0.25x speed you can just about tell each frame and it gives a more detailed look into it in my opinion, as you can see each star go by
satisfies my imagination so much. It's so odd and eerie, seeing such a lonely place, so far away, so cold. Yet 99.9999999% of the universe is like this, which also adds insignificance to the mix of feelings. It almost makes me sad.
The combination of the cosmic rays and how insanely fast this comet is spinning makes it look like it is snowing in this icy world. But, everytime you pause the video you can easily differentiate those dots as the stars in the background and smack 🤦🏾♂️yourself like of course there is no atmosphere, its not snowing on this comet, I'm an idiot and the fact this video even exists is just nuts!!
Absolutely incredible. One question. You can clearly see all the stars in the back round and this is from a comet travelling thousand of miles away. Why is there none from the moon?
I'm no expert but my thinking is, the images on the moon you're referring to were taken with sunlight falling on them (light side of the moon), so the exposures needed to take them were relatively low. Also, the sunlight would have made the stars less visible, similar to how it's harder to see stars when the moon is out, or in a city with light pollution. These photos were probably taken in low/no light, so there's nothing to flush out the stars, and much longer exposures would be needed to make anything visible (which is pretty much how photographers capture the night sky. Long exposure make stars more visible in the photos). Hence why this short sequence of photos covered 20 minutes. Each photo was minutes worth of exposure. Again, just my thought process. I could be wrong lol
You mean in photos taken by the Apollo astronauts on the moon? There are no stars visible because at the fast exposure times they used on the brilliantly sunlit surface, the stars were much too faint to be captured in the photos.

@@ingphotos but it looks like quite a lot of frames per second, if you look at the background it seems quite slow. Surprising that its that short I would expect at least a 30 second clip
@@Quest4astro to get the picture bright enough to see, you need to expose each photo for a looooong time to get all that light in there. It doesn't look like a lot of frames to me. They could have also used frame blending technology to make it smoother.
No, theres no atmoshphere. It's dust and also, a lot of the white dots are stars in the background if you look closely, but it kinda looks like snow lol.
Yes (about water in form of ice). I am sure it was told in physics class in middle school or something... Did you miss that part? But it isn't snow. Where do you think this "snow" is falling from? Empty space? There is no atmosphere on comets. And in video they tell you that those are cosmic rays and stars in background.
No person has ever been there in history. That’s crazy. I have always wanted to see a video of the surface of a comet and I never thought I’d be able to. This is beautiful.
No person ever will. In fact, nothing ever will.

I still think this is one of the most incredible things we as humans have achieved.
