I am in a fair bit of pain and can't sleep, nearly cried when I saw this on my feed. Must have missed it on the Patreon, but I'm glad I did, because this is perfect timing.
I’m glad there’s a new one and I have to rewatch every episode. Thanks for fixing the gravity and toilets also. Last time I nearly pissed in my own face…
Thanks for keeping me company on my long commute home from work tonight. As always dense with information but entertaining and well narrated to be a truly enjoyable experience for a space nerd such as myself. Keep up the great work, my friend. Looking forward to continuing this journey when you see fit to find time to do so ❤.
I'm watching this for a second time, after watching the premiere last night with it's inevitable interruptions of Dad retiring for the night, and the nightly rituals of taking my cat downstairs and settling her for the night. there were things I wanted to look at more closely, and now have the leisure to do so. One thing this series has left me with is something of a skull-cracking thought, and that is that, for all that they are so far away, the stars I can see from my bedroom window, when night-time conditions allow, are, in fact, some of our closest neighbours. Think about it for too long and it'll give quite the scare. I also have a suggestion to make about trying to make a 3-D image of our local neighbourhood. It may be wildly unscientific and imprecise, but why not simply leave the inner spheres, which have already been covered, and any outer ones, which are for future examination, blank: only the sphere under discussion should be populated with its inhabitants. If there are stars in the other spheres that really need to be placed, put them in, but otherwise, keep the others clear. That will certainly remove any clutter!
Hi! You might consider adding to this video's info, links to the first three videos in this series, in their chrono order. It would make it easier to find them, as it's not easy. You might even put episode numbers on the titles of the rest of them as well. In any case, great series. I just re-watched all three to get re-oriented again. Thank you!
I swear, Lightyear for distance is like Fahrenheit, Parsec is like Celsius: Sure, the latter is more logical than the other given the scale of things, but the former just works so much better when you're planning between a sweater or t-shirt.
As I commented last night, "I was wondering if you're continue to do these?" I think you should. It's interesting to see what historical characters are behind some of these stars. And, sometimes you see some what I'm calling "Non-Euclidean Stars." Stars like Sirius B, and . . . drumroll . . . Betelgeuse! Sirius B is a non-Eucldean star because of it's age. White dwarfs should be billions of years old. Sirious B is just a few hundred thousands of years old! How did that happen? Because Sirius A took the outer layers off of it! Leaving just the core exposed! Betelgeuse turns out to be spinning faster than normal. It must have done so because, fairly recently(like within the time of Human knowledge) it absorbed a companion star!
What I'm thought of when watching your latest installment of this Astronomy series is "usually when we think about stellar companions, we think about the varied planets." The varied planets has been through some revolutions. We've seen many stars with hot jupiters close into their companion star. We've seen inverted planet systems to our own. Our Solar system has smaller planets inside, and then larger Gas giants outward. The inverted formation is bigger planets inside, out smaller plants outside. And, we've see Star System planets where all the planets are approximately the same size. But, what struck me here, is that instead of seeing planets, we're seeing lots of companion stars - mostly red dwarfs with lots of red dwarf and brown dwarf companions.
250 million years old is still a non-standard age for white dwarfs. White dwarfs are the end stage of a normal sized stars like our Sun. That takes ten billion years. When I mean non-Euclidean, I mean a change of axioms that allows for change of properties - whether geometric or algebraic. Around the same time as the non-Euclidean geometry discoveries of Saccheri and Gauss, they discovered "Abstract Algebra" through Galois theory(and even number theory with congruence numbers). They can warp any mathematical properties. In Sirius B, we have a white dwarf that is of a young age astronomically speaking. It comes about by processes that changes the normal rules of stellar evolution. @@parallaxnick637
Let me say that non-Euclidean geometry changes geometric properties and not just warped space. In non-Euclidean geometries, different geometries can have either have greater or lesser angle sums of a triangle. The Euclidean triangle angle sum = 180s. Degrees. Depending on how you warp the space, you could get more or less angle sum. In congruent integers, you could get 6 times 3 equals 0, or 12 equals 24. The easy way to explain this is "clock arithmetic" which you can easily see that 12 equals 24 for instance. You could get an infinity of units. 1 is a unit.

The idea that life can form by natural processes is a construct of materialist philosophy and has no basis in reality. Materialism allows no other paradigm nonetheless despite evidence to the contrary. My engineering background may influence my opinion, but natural processes do not demonstrate such functional complexity.
Abiogenesis is still a nascent science. It is possible we will never learn how it happened, but even so that does not demand we invoke the supernatural.
@@parallaxnick637 Not nascent at all. More like a failure and hasn't progressed much in the 72 years since Miller/Urey experiment in 1952 that is still touted as proof that electrochemical processes could provide the amino acids for proteins when it didn't create all of the 20 amino left-handed or chiral amino acids nor hook them together to form any proteins. If you had a mixture of all the 20 chiral amino acids they would never hook together and form a simple protein before some of them broke down. It has recently been discovered the amino acids not only have to have its Hydrogen atom on its left side, but at the quantum level the electrons must be spin down to hook together and in the proper order. They still cannot explain how that could occur, let alone fold properly. Are you aware of how many compounds there are that we cannot synthesize without using a living organism? Makes it hard to believe some unknown natural processes created the first independent life form let alone DNA.
This has probably become one of my favourite series on all of YT
Makes my day so much better when I see the notification
Well written, historical and cutting edge, hits a mark seemingly no others are aiming for.
THEY ARE PUSHING ALL MASONIC LIES ABOUT THE COSMOS NOTHING MORE SEARCH VIBES OF COSMOS FOR REAL TRUTH
This channel is criminally underrated
Thank you Nick for being our tour guide!
When the light grows dim, and the cold begins to creep in, Nick arrives to re-kindle the seeker's fire.
Thank you.
Nice. Complicated. Abstruse. Fascinating. Thanks. 😎
Always fun to find a fellow SCP reader! Thanks for all of your hard work, always look forward to watching your latest!
always a good day when nick uploads
once again I'm all chuckle and smiles, thank you Nick
Warms my heart to see this channel really starting to grow! Well deserved!
I am in a fair bit of pain and can't sleep, nearly cried when I saw this on my feed. Must have missed it on the Patreon, but I'm glad I did, because this is perfect timing.
I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you're feeling better. I didn't post this on Patreon because it doesn't really work in audio.
A new Parallaxnick video give me a hell yeah I'm going to enjoy this one
The art by SingularityG3 speaks to the imagination! A great addition to the series.
Nick is a star.
I’d be happy to watch a full episode on the Most Hated Astronomer of All Time. Great episode as always, ty!
Highlight of my day ❤️
same
Do more of these when the library is back up
Hope you are well.
So good to see a new addition to your awesome catalogue Nick! One of my favourite channels and minds 👌
BRILLIANT AS EVER NICK, You Keep Going to Finland but not see the Mommintrolls, and remember its your next Holiday not Vacation !!! Love jeremy.
proper top class scientific commentary that's also fun
I look forward to this every year now❤
Yes!!! Been looking forward to this all day. Always appreciate the amazing work Nick

Thanks Nick. Great job and was well worth the wait. Great content as always. Cheers
Great that you’re back Nick! Wonderful work!👏🏼
Nick you are the best youtuber i have ever found!
Fuk yea a new parallaxnick video!!! This cheered me up greatly!
Thank you, Parallax Nick! I find this series illuminating.
Brilliant, an early Christmas present 😊.
Thanks Nick, I appreciate your hard work. 🙏☮️
I keep coming back to these
So glad to see this series again.
Good to see you back shipmate
Thanks for reviving this series !
Pure gold!! Cheers!
Wow!! Many thanks
Really good overview, great content!
Thank you for your work
Love these
32 liked before the start, the real fans lol
thank god, another parallaxNick video... its couldnt come sooner
excellent video
yes nick thank you
All aboard the tour bus!
I suppose that it is because the spheres are getting larger that
it seems to be getting more "crowded" as we move away from home.

For astronomers, it is the simpler option. Unfortunately most people aren't astronomers.
Sry I didn't make it to the premier 😢
As an SCP nerd, I liked the 682 reference 🤬🐊
Let's. Go.
Be glad there are no spectral type O (also type B with mass greater than 8 solar) in our neighborhood since they end in supernovae.
There's nothing in this episode with the characteristics of Gliese 829.
Such effervescent narration.
Some come close but I don't recall any true sun siblings nearby. Will we get to some in the third ring?
Remember Chara from part 2? That was stated to be so close that you couldn't get closer without actively engineering the star.
woot woot!!!! Lets go!!
The artstyle looks different from your previous videos. What changed?
My semi-frequent collaborator, SingularityG3.
Hell yeah
Sunspots are like star acne.
woooo baby!!!!

I want to like 🤷♂️but you didn't make the joke
😂👍
Seriously I am curious now

Yay
5 min of watching u get 1 more sub ;D

Maybe it needs to cook for a billion years before life can begin?
Thank you. Always a pleasure to listen to you.
