      And knowing that we will never be able to explore at least 99.9% of it other than watch what it was like billions of years ago, even our closest galaxy Andromida is out of our reach! The light we see today from that galaxy left over 2 million years ago, 6 trillion miles a year light travels, 186 thousand miles a second, we a a species are a long way from the tech&science needed to travel at those speeds with even a small amount of mass, sending a message is all we can do at the speed of light, we are not even at 1% the speed of light in terms of rockets or space ships, voyger 1 that launched in the 70's is currently traveling at a speed 40 thousand miles an hour and that would take a couple of billion years to reach the Andromida galaxy! Like i said its safe to say that we will only ever be able to explore our own galaxy, the other 99.9% of the universe is untouchable

    Hi, I just discovered your channel today while looking up videos of red giant stars. And I'm hooked. Not only is your production quality top notch, but your narration is just so pleasant and appealing to listen to. If I didn't know better, I would think this was a Discovery Channel documentary. I've long been a casual "fan" of cosmology, always staying up for hours after bedtime when I was a kid reading books about everything from black holes to astrophysics. RUclips has only continued to feed my fascination for the wonders and mysteries of the Universe some 25 years later. And I'm definitely proud to be your newest fan and follower. Thanks and keep up the great work!

      It’s 5,100 light years away meaning the lights delay is 5.100 years, this is a very short amount of time in a cosmological timescale. UY Scuti isn’t going to go supernova for another 1M years which is short compared to the universe but enough compared to the distance we are at. Humanity will have to last for 1.05m years respectively to witness it. Betelgeuse might have already exploded, we are waiting for that light to reach us now, but that star is way closer to home :)
