      Well, let hope they take in the gravitational effects of adding 80x mass. the sun and JUP JUP are already in an orbit they is closer to a bi-nary star system then that of a mere planet. It might relocate with the habital zone of the solar system..... But we are very adaptive species.

      Hey Kyle, how big would a black hole have to be, to be powering the Sun? I'm asking you, because you mentioned that our "dim star" scenario would allow Jupiter to become (eventually) as bright as our Sun. Since we can only see the first couple of layers of fusing gas, I speculate that our Sun still has a few secrets to bare. So, please? I'd explain it, but I'd DEFINITELY lose everyone in the interim.

You get more than 1000 times the living space disassembling a small planet to construct rotating habitats than if you only used the surface to live on.
      Yes we mine on Earth, we are not that advanced in space yet. I also doubt we would ever fully dismantle earth to turn it into a swarm of space stations. It's where we were born and we are nostalgic critters. But why go to the extreme effort to make a gas Giants moon habitable when you could house so many more people by taking that moon appart instead? By the time we could even try more people would have been born and raised in space than on Earth.

    A couple of points come to mind watching this. 1) you talked about capturing a black hole and moving it.
    I think it would be simpler to just create one where we need it.
    2) getting rid of Jupiter's magnetic field. Don't Black Holes also have strong magnetic fields of their own?
    Or would the field not reach far enough to matter because of how small the black hole we need is?

    • @winferdprice5310
      @winferdprice5310 Год назад +1

      That would be the more reasonable approach. just build 2 LHCs focused on Saturn's poles and accelerate matter into the center until the Black hole is created then scrap them into the new star. Then we can sit back and bask in the in the brilliance of our hubris that really did cause man made Global warming.

      1. We of course dont know how to create a BH.
      It would have to bee macroscopic, so, at least the mass of a Himalaya or more.
      You may know that Hawking radiation gets stronger as a BH gets smaller, at the end it probably explodes, but for this we would need Quantum Gravity.
      Its conceivable that some future LHC may create sg like a BH withthe mass of a few nuclei (thats less than Himalaya) which would be probably unstable because of Hawking radiation - but we dont know for sure as this would be clearly an object in the realm of Quantum Mecanics and we dont have a gravity theory describing that realm. With GR Theory we belileve to have a (perhaps good) model for macroscopic BHs only.

      @AnInsideJoke 4 года назад +1

      It would actually destroy multiple planets, including our own.
      Even without any of the actual heat from the Jupiter-sun reaching us, Kyle clearly said that the light itself would, making what is supposed to be night have near daytime level brightness, completely screwing with the circadian rhythm of every plant and animal on earth, including humans (just look up how often and easily people go nuts near the arctic circle during that whole "6 months of darkness/light" thing).
      Plus, I can't remember, do all of Jupiter's moons have proper rotation? If not, then the ones that don't will just remain icy on one half, and super-heated on the other, which will make them even less habitable than they currently are.
      All of this is also without mentioning that smaller, "dwarf stars" (which Jupiter would classify as if it were turned into a sun) have super-short lifespans and tend to be unstable. And unstable stars tend to end in novas or supernovas. And supernovas are the 2nd most destructive known force in the universe (black holes being the 1st). Just the explosion itself would completely obliterate the entire solar system (and possibly a good chunk of the surrounding Oort cloud too), to say nothing of the massive amounts of gamma radiation which would be released.

      ​@@AnInsideJoke Even if we human reach the point to indeed do something like this , you really thing that we with a population of maybe dozens of billions of people not only in the earth, but in other planets with small population we would care for the life of minimal creatures ? if yes, we would create controlled environment for then and the day and night would be irrelevant , if no, what is most likely to happens since we as a species don't give a fuck about another species if they are no useful to us. they would just die and within 100 years no one would give a fuck. I know that is a evil way of seeing the things and I don't agree with that but we don't give a fuck to most creatures now days even we could easily save most of then ,since their environment still sustainable and renewable. we as a species don't care , all that some people do is cry out in the internet to others to see with no immediate response .
      And the process of heating of a planet soo much bigger then the earth would be soo slow that most likely would take century's for the planet/star Jupiter reach a temperature OR brightness high enough to have a catastrophic impact in the planet earth , and even if that's the case , we would have much bigger problems because probably a this point the Earth would be almost dry of natural resources and the population would be soo massive that even most humans would live in absolutely poverty.
      and the last thing yes maybe some small planets or moons be destroy .but if that is the price that humanity would have to pay to survive as a whole we would do that without a single trace of doubt.
      We are human and I think that nothing is a price high enough to survival of the whole species .

      I thought about it too, but I don't think so, because probably the Hawking radiation are proportional to mass of the black hole so it would take a pretty long time... and as I saw a video talking about the end of the universe, the evaporation by Hawking radiation would evaporate the biggest black holes in around 10^100 years, so... we have time XD

With strong enough magnetic field it can act as a 'umbrella', shielding it from solar winds. And Lagrange points are quite stable requiring far less fuel to keep it there. This idea is far easier then moving a moon.

      @@ssifr3331 well if we assume that pressure is extremely high in a black hole due to the extreme gravity, it can both be cool and hot, after all no heat can escape it, however it most likely acts like a Bose-Einstein condensate where all the atoms take up just 1 space and the electron cloud is what actually takes up the space. And last time I checked those things are cool. Although the mass to energy conversion says that a black hole with mass m is if it isn't rotating m×c×c joules, meaning let's assume it's 250 billion solar masses, so it's 1 Sol × 11839612713113028000000000 centigrade heat units, or 22500000000000 Peta Joules × 1 Sol... do you understand how ridiculous the energy is.

    • @colbyfife4709
      @colbyfife4709 4 года назад +14

      The mass of the blackhole itself would be at most if an asteroid started orbiting Jupiter so the solar systems gravity would not be thrown out of whack. Jupiter's own goldilocks zone should not interfere with the central star's due to distance. Uncertain about the radiation thing due to the majority of what earth gets hit by comes from our own sun but radiation coming from Jupiter could have an impact, though the Earth's magnetosphere would probably handle it fine due to actually being stronger on the backside (due to the solar winds pressure from the sun facing side) I might be wildly wrong on the last one though and we would not want Jupiter to get super hot.

The only ones that might work are black holes that were created in the very early moments of the universe, but their existence is not confirmed, and their masses might not be compatible either.

      Anton Petrov did this simulation in Universe Sandbox. He kept copypasting Jupiters and adding additional mass to the original one. At 60 masses of original Jupiter he got to a brown dwarf, still not technically a star because it doesn't have nuclear reaction inside but it gets quite hot, around 1400 K. But he kept going... and at 78 it crossed the star threshold, became red dwarf and got lit.

    Instead of trying to find a micro-blackhole for this, you could make one. Disassemble Mercury to construct a partial (about 10%) Dyson Swarm around the sun, and with that, concentrate the captured sunlight to manufacture kugelblitz black holes. Since this process allows you to make more than just one micro black hole, you can make a few extra, plop them into Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, and get FOUR new mini-stars for the Solar System.

      with present day tech, communication we send out would take thousands if not millions of years to reach a planet with life on it, and if they have tech that could reply faster we likely dont have a way to recieve it. if they are at our tech level than it'd take just as long to get back to us.

      Mathematically we cannot be alone in the universe so if we just take educated guesses chances are the alien lifeforms are either not technologically advanced enough to recieve/reply to us or we are not technologically advanced enough to receive them.
      That being said there are also other factors we need to consider like is it smart idea to invite aliens to our planet? Will their immune systems protect them against our bacteria and vice versa and so many other things

    Hey Kyle! Amazing episode as always. I'm a big fan of the show, and since my degree is in Astrophysics, I thought this would be my best bet to try and achieve Super Nerd status.
    I noticed a few people wondering about what havoc a Black Hole of this mass would do on it's way to Jupiter, or if Hawking radiation would evaporate it before it got there, so I thought I'd have some fun and look into it, since your busy doing 'definitely not super-villainy' stuff.
    Using the equation for the radius of a Black Hole based on it's mass (R=2GM/(c^2)) and rearranging for mass, and a Black Hole of that size would have a mass of about 10^21 kg. Which is a lot, but it's about 100x less than Jupiter's largest Moon Ganymede (or Gainymede to use your excellent pun).
    [Wouldn't getting the gains on Ganymede be waaaay more difficult due to the lower gravity?]
    The black hole would be slightly more massive than Ceres; the largest asteroid in the asteroid belt.
    Whilst this is pretty big, I doubt it would 'wreak havoc' on the Solar System, assuming it didn't get too close to a planet, especially any the terrestrial ones. If it passed through the asteroid belt it could throw asteroids out, which could endanger us, but if so most of its effects on us would be indirect, at least until it reached Jupiter.
    As for the Hawking radiation evaporation problem; using some equations I found [see my reply to this] I plugged in the mass value calculated and got a time for the Black Hole to totally evaporate of 2.66*10^37 years. So, on that front, the plan is all good too.
    Having a red sun in the sky could help with neutralising any pesky superheroes that draw their powers from yellow sun light btw.
    Would an active Black Hole such as this one be releasing high energy radiation that could be potentially harmful to life here on Earth, or would our magnetosphere protect us?
    Thanks again for another amazing episode. It's always great fun not only to explore all these wonderfully nerdy ideas with you, but to see the passion and enthusiasm you do it with. Keep up the amazing work.
    And remember, not matter how unkind the internet can get, there are so many fellow nerds out here (beyond the void) that love, appreciate and enjoy the awesome work you're doing.
    One last thing: my cat is called Jupiter and I think he got a bit nervous after reading the title.

      Great observations ma man! I can see that the degree in astrophysics has payed of. One question though - what formula did you use for Hawking radiation? I can't find one on the internet that also explains the used values clearly (it's very hard to learn about physics in english since english isn't my first language)

    The first hypothesis for the stellification of the sun that you proposed consisted in "squeezing" Jupiter to the point on initiating steady nuclear fusion.
    But wouldn't the mettalic hydrogen insise jupiter's core pose a risk to a longlasting energy source, being more stable than normal gaseous state hydrogen?
    Guess that the your starkiller needs a different power source

      I assume the reason why suns dom't have that problem is because of the enormous forces blasting outwards preventing that hydrogen from solidifying like that
