It is a magnetized planet with a magnetic field. The standard mass function is wrong, it uses, the Newtonian model. The ring is not due to busted up moons but is a standard plasma ring current which traps charged particles in it. The ring radius varies with magnetic flux density. The larger the magnetic flux density the tighter the radius. The smaller the magnetic flux density the larger the radius.
Great video Christian, I'm really sorry you've been sick. Don't worry about posting videos for us, you don't owe us anything..if anything we owe you for all the unique videos you've made for us. Take care bud, Eric
A couple days ago I checked to see if RUclips unsubscribed me. I'm glad you're okay, but you had me worried there for a minute. Everyone deserves a month on the couch now and then. Great video as usual. You're one of the best and seriously underrated!!!
Welcome back and glad to hear you’re doing better. Is it possible that the ring is in the Roche limit because the density of Quaoar is higher than we think?
Christian! I was thinking you'd better not fade away! There were days, and there were days, and there were days between, I was missing your sparkling clover on all of them!
@James Cheddar oh okay I get it now lol. That’s sad but I guess if we can do some scientific research off the backs of capital gains it won’t be that bad
The simplest explanation is that the rings didn't form by a single moonlet drifting inside the Roche limit. It could have formed by a moonlet colliding with another object (pulverizing it). The outer solar system evidently abounds with very close objects (that ultimately usually form contact binaries) - - but sometimes not: if they're too far away, then when they finally come together [with too much momentum] they can annihilate each other.
I've missed your voice, Christian. I'm glad you're feeling more normal again. I did see your explanation in the early patreon messages, but I didn't have time to respond. Sorry. I love Quaoar, I'm absolutely convinced that it's density is far less than we know. I'm not saying in comparison to gas giants densities, however far less dense than Earth for example as a terrestrial entity, and the rings could be expanding away from its gravity. Also its more likely to be shaped like a potato I would imagine.... a very ugly potato.🥔 Either this or the rings are a real life Halo from an Alien world!!! Good to see you again. I love my mug BTW, thanks. Adam.
Appreciate it. Occultations are a great way to investigate known KBOs and work out things like their shape, size, and atmospheres. But to discover them, it's much easier to image the sky night after night and see if anything is moving. In fact, every KBO was discovered that way!
As for the rings themselves, perhaps the satellite orbiting Quaoar has an influence on the rings? Perhaps the JWST is taking bad readings of distance, as I have noticed there are some videos claiming it is seeing galaxies that are too large to exist. Possibilities abound.
Quaoar is actually a dwarf planet that I never heard of Thanks for teaching me something new! ❤ Super Saturn with its rings still win the competition lol
The thing about space, exoplanets, and astronomy in general is that the rabbit hole of exploration required to answer 'simple' questions is almost always fascinating and long.
Since mass neutralizes resistance within. Proximity mass of lesser energy is repelled towards the weakest point of resistance. Forward momentum is a factor to repulsion. Spheres are proof of pressure in equalization of resistance. Circulation around greater mass of neutralized resistance within accumulates proximity mass of greater resistance to mass. Resistance in smaller mass is repelled towards the weakest point of resistance, which is the greater neutralized mass of weaker resistance. Galaxies are formed by this process. Proximity mass is repelled towards the weakest point of resistance. Mass occupies space as space itself neutralizes resistance within as force of pressure known as weight. Table of elements proves hypothesis. Hydrogen under extreme pressure expands cold resistance into equalization of pressure and expands into helium. More pressure exerted within, more pressure exerted without. Spheres are equalization of pressure. Force of pressure. The nucleus of atoms expands cold resistance into equalization of pressure exerted on it. Hydrogen expands into helium. More pressure exerted, more repulsion equalization. Decay is heat loss. Accumulation of thermaldynamics, equalization of resistance to thermaldynamics pressure increases. Hydrogen expands into helium.
Absolutely and Overwhelmingly informative video from you... Please make a video regarding james webb image of Pillars of Creation and other deep field images.... I love watching your videos... No video on RUclips has a satisfactory explanation of the MIRI image of the pillara of Creation... I hope and I am sure that the best video will be from your side.
i lvoe the chaos of the universe in randomness, but also its simple geometry with the golden ratio, the same can be seen in the microcosm of the cells and plants, but also the macrocosm of the universe, its amazing how it can both be simple and complicated at the same time
Wow! The image of our Solar System at 0:56 to 1:02, relative to Quaoar's distance from its star, appear to show that Neptune and Pluto could possibly collide at two intersections of their orbits around the Sun. Maybe their relative "heights" at those two crossing points prevent it, but I find that very interesting. Could you comment on this, please? I'm glad you recovered nicely from the "incident" that had you down. I was wondering where you were. I enjoy your Astronomy videos. Thank you, Mr. Christian.
The mass of the ring material would affect its characteristics, I'd think. Am I right or wrong? We might have seen them during their brief existence as well, after some sort of an impact event.
This is a good example for our lack of understanding and comprehension of how things really work in the universe that we live in.Whenever the so called experts discover something that says they are wrong Thay basically say that it's cheating and that since it's not working the way they say you should be that's evidence for all of this being a computer program and that we don't exist because things don't work the way they say! Pride leads to ego ego needs to arrogance arrogance leads to mistakes fact.This is just one example of our lack of understanding and comprehension of how things really really really work in the universe that we live in and the more we look the more things we will find that proves just how arrogant that we humans have become and the reason why we have met no intelligence outside of the earth is because there is none.The improbable number is higher than the probable number of the likelihood that there is intelligent life out there other than Earth!!! Take it our leave it it's up to you not me!!! This is just my opinion and My logic Wich is different than your logic.
"and the reason why we have met no intelligence outside of the earth is because there is none." -What a laughable conclusion. Work on your argumentative strategegy.
@@carolprice1389 No you won't. Just saying that your assumption is bs. How could you prove there is no intelligent life other than the one here on earth? Our star is just a really, small and irrelevant one on the outside of our milky way, it would be more than arrogant to assume we are the only life forms.
The fact we found the largest Star in the observable Universe as it's about to blow is beyond likely as well. that had the tech to detect Oumuamua as it flew by on it's one trip through our Solarsystem. that we had the Carrington effect just as we started using electricity and telegraphs that it could disrupt And that the Moon fits right in front of the sun in eclipses. So far out and so stable, this could be a base or space station built round that body and rotating to create gravity for the Inhabitants. Thick and thin parts could be structures or semi transparent parts. That stone could have been a lot bigger and they mined it for the materials to build a 10 -20 kilometer ring base making the ring look too far out. That's a lot of material to build something that big. Interesting for sure.
7:30 "three times longer than" or "three times as long as"? The two are very different. Anyway, fascinating stuff, and I'm putting an early bet on there being micro black holes involved 😉🤣😁
Me thinks there are some Shepherd Moon(s) at play. That might also explain the unbalanced left and right sides of the graphs. But, most differently a shot in the dark on my behalf. Good to see your back. I'll take quality content over quantity any day.
It must be a very dense planet. Less density in the ring debris could also cause that, but I'd assume that less dense ring debris would more easily be stripped out of the ring by the gravity of other objects.
Maybe the core of said planet spins fast enough generating a stronger magnetic field. As well as a material within said planets crust making gravity on it more dense and or potent.
I thought years ago, astronomers discovered all of the major bodies in the solar system have rings, it's just that are very faint and consist of mainly dust and ice. Probably not, I just seem to remember it from a science magazine back in the early 2000's.
I always enjoy discovering something we can't immediately explain. Then the detractors try to deny any explanation stating "What are the odds of that happening?" I like the part when I can say "The odds aren't important, when you have spent 4.6 billion years trying and possibly failing. The fact that we fouind it is enough to give us a reason to try to explain it" People always try to say the chances of that happening are less than 1 in a billion, or some such fantastical relationship. I say, when you've been doing this for billions of years and trying with billions of particles and we have only found 1 so far....the likelyhood is probably much less than you think. ☺
Actually, the rings happen on all planets with a magnetic field, and a charged particle flow impinged onto its magnetosphere. All of the planets in our solar system with a magnetic field have a plasma ring current.
I saw that this guy was officially deemed a dwarf planet as of december 2023. But There are many other bodies that pass the criteria for being a dwarf planets. According to the solar system wiki, the largest 4 are Gonggong, Sedna, Orcus, and Salacia. Some other notable ones are 2002 MS4, Ixion, Varuna, Varda, and Hygiea. Question: Why does it take so much time for IAU to officially declare these guys as dwarf plants? If they pass the criterea, whats the problem? Should we just call them dwarf planets anyway even if its not official? if not, what do we call them and why?
Usually, such rings are maintained by shepherd moons but shepherd moons obey the same laws as rings so they shouldn't be there either. Could the dwarf be super heavy, like a very dense piece of the super nova that created this section of the solar System?
Im no expert, but my theory on how Quaoar’s rings could’ve formed is from an impact of course, but the rings could’ve initially been in the Roche limit before it was dragged outwards past the Roche limit by Weywot, Quaoar’s moon. If these rings cannot be outside the Roche limit because they would form back into a moon or something, either they would’ve been dragged out a bit closer to the CE/AD (like in about 300 or 50 Million years ago) or the asteroids just cannot do that like how the Asteroid belt is formed of objects that cannot collide into one planet. Like I said before, I’m no expert on Solar system formation so take this with some salt.
It's only "impossible" when you go by regular science but if you take plasma cosmology into account, you'll understand that rings around planets are held electrically through plasma currents and not by muh gravity. Hope that helps!
Very interesting puzzle. It’s likely the shepherd theory is correct but we just don’t know enough at this point. It’s likely more than one moon that’s doing the shepherding. But of course there could be other things going on here, there just isn’t enough information here. LGM?
Hey... fun fact... the way I always thought rings are made... I would never find that impossible. They can be even much further. It only means that space is voided of obstacles which allowed the ring to stay and last.
I think the ring IS possible, I think it was pulled from the limit by the moon and is shared in an equal gravity between Weywot and it’s parent dwarf planet.
Of course they should be possible. The gravity of the dielectric inertia plane exists with all toroidal dual pole magnetic fields. They are universal with planets, stars, moons, galaxies and even people. Every planet in our solar system has one kind of belt or another as well. This gravity disc plan is what makes the trillions of galaxies disc shaped, it shapes the disc like rings of Saturn and also makes the planets in our solar system follow an orbit within the disc like gravity plane from our sun's magnetic field. It is zero surprise that a dwarf planet might have rings. Look up the asteroid belt surrounding our Earth.
Something is going on with your voice microphone setup, because every so often, whenever you inflect a 'r', for example, that it will be distorted audibly. Maybe you can fix this?
the key takeaway from this is that the universe has a habit of throwing outliers that fly in the face of the natural laws we so love to apply to our surroundings
Maybe the influence of the planets gravity os higher on the ring cuz the suns gravity is not so strong that far out so it canhold that far from the planet
We still don't know so much about the universe. SO MUCH! We are like kids wandering in a mist. We know a bit of this and a bit of that, but the vast ocean of knowledge still remains hidden.
8:20 (ignoring the "should be taken with a (few trillion) grains of salt"😂) 8:23 why not look at this as from the other way... the fact the ring exhibits these properties actually tells us heaps about those very same 'unknowns' you mention... the ring gives us info about the required resonance parameters you allude are 'uncertain'.
Quite possibly yes, but it’s not clear if they are enough to maintain the ring or if they need assistance from some as yet undetected mechanism. More observations will help!
@@LaunchPadAstronomy Absolutely. These ring systems must surely be very long lived so I wouldn't be surprised if Quaoar turned out to be slightly active, even for it's size, or if it has a second companion. Good video.
Rings around dwarf planets are far more interesting than I anticipated. And all good, happy to see you back!
I agree they are really amazing. And thanks, it's good to be back!
Especially when they aren't where they are suppose to be.
By definition a object capable of clearing its own neighborhood of dented is a planet. Not a dwarf.
@@Xio189 You are so smart. You should have your own Astronomy channel.
It is a magnetized planet with a magnetic field. The standard mass function is wrong, it uses, the Newtonian model.

It is a blessing how good you make these videos, such a good depth!
I appreciate that!
Welcome back and glad to hear you’re doing better.
Is it possible that the ring is in the Roche limit because the density of Quaoar is higher than we think?
Or the broken up moon had a very low density/tensile strength…?

I hope one day we can send probes out and study these objects close up. They’re so fascinating!
@James Cheddar nah we can just send the probe like we did to Pluto. But instead of a fly by they can actually orbit the objects individually
