In the same time someone somewhere from Andromeda is watching a gigapixels of Milky Way(or whatever they call it..)...and wondering definitely we are not alone in the universe.
Watching this is a religious experience for me. I’m moved to awed tears every time. Especially when I remember that this is only one *quarter* of only *one* galaxy, out of trillions.
really puts into perspective how you can look into a grain of sand here on a microscope, then think about how "big" our planet is and how big of a feat it is to travel a good chunk of it, then to think that this pic looks like a beach full of grains of sand, and then yet a picture of a bunch of galaxies can also look like a bunch of grains of sand.. we really are microscopic in the big scheme of things if we really think about it! so amazing yet intimidating to realize at the same time
@@-requestisinvalid-6299 current estimate is about 2 trillion in the "observable universe" and possibly up to 30 quintillion as a best guess of size of the entire universe assuming it is a finite size. I heard some where the est size of the entire universe is around 250x the radius of the observable universe (46 billion light years) making it around 23 trillion light years in diameter. Assuming the rest we cannot observe is as isotropic as what we can see, the estimate is 30+ quintillion galaxies. ultimately who knows it's just F'n big
Neat to see your comment here Peter! I am a Jackie Evancho fan. Wonder if Jackie will take an interest in this? Needles to say, loved your "Hallelujah" duet with her!
First time watching this I legit cried. I don’t know why it made me cry. Maybe because it was a reminder that my problems are small. It’s a reminder that we are so small compared to the larger mysterious universe filled with worlds and possible life elsewhere where people are having ongoing problems too. It’s a reminder that death is not only in our world but also out in the darkness of space. Even these large planets and suns eventually die and new ones are born and life continues.
God put that emotion in you to cry in awesome wonder of His creation... Please don't be like the fools who believe the scientific impossibility that everything came from nothing...
This hits you right deep into your soul. Be grateful that we have a conscious to be aware of the universe and all its beauty. As far as we know no other species on this planet has ever been aware of the universe. We are lucky.
It's almost certain that this is the case. Maybe not in Andromeda, but in one of the literal billions of other galaxies that exist in the Hubble Deep Field alone, let alone the trillions of others in the universe at large. I would also love for there to be other life in this galaxy, let alone Andromeda, but it is impossible for there not to be other life in the universe in general. It is just too big to support us alone.
Renegade Shep loves his M-6 Carnifex Hand Cannon I think it’s kind of strange that the Fermi paradox is used as explanation of why we are alone. The universe is unimaginable big and who’s to say even the most intelligent life can get to other galaxies let alone other stars. The distances are too large to say for certain whether interstellar and especially intergalactic journeys are even remotely possible.
it really puts in perspective how fighting against each other is such a waste. We could spend our resources on space exploration rather than war. We are all Earthlings, a family. I wish everyone could see that.
Rachel Marilyn Wilde That's why I liked the movie 2010. Also the one who created Andromeda said "Look! The nations are like a drop from a bucket, And as the film of dust on the scales they are regarded" Isaiah 40:15. We're just dust fighting dust.
It is amazing that we can resolve individual stars in galaxies outside our own. The countless hours and effort of so many people that made this possible are tremendous. Humanity is awesome! Keep exploring.
+MIKE ZEROH Exactly, there are millions and possibly billions of stars from andromeda that may not even exist anymore due to the death of those stars but we still see the light they sent to use 2 million years ago! It really is mind blowing.
In theory it is possible but it is substantially closer to us than we actually realize. That galaxy is moving toward us at a speed of 250,000 miles per hour and at that speed it will only take another 4 billion years for the collision with the milky way. So much to still learn!
+Grind Time Yeah, ya right. And according to most astrophysicist types we won't notice a thing because no 2 stars from either galaxy are ever going to collide. There are several doing it now.
Many years after this blew my mind for the very first time... I still continue to watch it an amazement. I now design planetariums and remain fascinated enough with this video to continue to watch it on a regular basis. It's. Spectacular. So much spectacularness Please let me know if you would like to make a new version with updated visuals, music made for this, an explanations.
Of all the images taken of space, this the one that has given me the most clear visual communication of how big the universe is, especially when you consider this is just one of billions of galaxies.
Dreadmyshadow Or not important... I wanted to create a short of an alien team aboard their spaceship picking up a reading for a nuclear anomaly in an area that is not notice by those species who space travel. So they get excited thinking that a species has recently discovered teleportation or travel beyond the speed of light. But when the get here, nothing... then they focus on the land mass where the reading of the first burst happen then a flash of light. With horror they realize what this precious energy is being used for... they are so depressed and label our solar system a 'danger zone' for other more advanced cultures to be warned. And one of them remarks "I've seen this type of thing before. They won't last more than 100 cycles around their sun before they destroy themselves, and good riddance the universe needs to be spared from such destructive/conquering creatures." Then they leave.
We may well be the most advanced in the universe. SOMEONE has to be. We're the most advanced civilization that we're aware of, at least. The search never ends.
So many stars and they look so close to each other. Knowing that it would take thousands of years to travel between each one, puts in to perspective the size of a Galaxy!
Once I came to terms that the universe isn't centered around me, and my narcissism faded, I really began to appreciate everything in my life---knowing it's all temporary, including me, and must be enjoyed now, not tomorrow. Something about the idea that you will live forever in some paradise dulls the experience of life. Once you come to terms with that it's not forever, you'll begin living. Religious people have said to me my life must be empty and have no purpose. How wrong they are. And how ironic that is. Some guy stumbling through life under the haze of religious hypnotism who thinks some god is watching and judging every move he makes saying my life is shit. Yeah, right.
How anyone could look at this, and think we're alone in the universe is beyond me. This just one of TRILLIONS of galaxies too. We aren't even a spec of dust in the universe.
The fact that people think the universe was created for humans and only humans bothers me. We are an advanced bread of ape living on a small planet orbiting an average star within a galaxy containing billions of other stars within a universe containing trillions of galaxies.Theres nothing special or unique about us besides being relatively intelligent compared to the life forms here on earth.
Josh Rubin But we have capitalism, and that is obsolete. Humanity is not yet ready to transfer into a modern society where capitalism is not clenched like a security blanket. I think humanity could be better than that.
SlypherSpoons self-important, not self-importance. I won't go into any other of your errors, but they're annoying and I can't take you seriously. Nice attempt to sound remotely intelligent. This could be the most pointless comment I've read. Go read a book, and get a life. Maybe learn how to construct a sentence. Lol, what a joke.
I agree. This is incredibly humbling. We think we're so important yet we are so small. Yet at the same time, this video helps me think no mater what happens in life, in the end, everything will be ok.
i dont think this really forces anyone out of their comfort zone, i feel in my comfort zone when watching it, but it definitely is humbling. The existence of other intelligent life is practically undeniable after watching.
I never know how this should make me feel...amazed? insignificant? curious? resigned to the fact I'll never know? hopeful that there is so much out there I won't end here?.....I feel it all
+BananaBread It's all relative :) We see but a tiny fraction of the EM spectrum, we can only hear a fraction of the audio spectrum, we only experience a tiny fraction of time scales, of distance scales, of size scales, of energy scales. Compared to the full range of reality that we can access with the science and math tools we've developed, our bodies are laughably incapable of experiencing it in a meaningful or intuitive way. But we are exceedingly good at understanding our tiny slice of reality, because that's what our brains were made for. Compared to some imaginary beings which could intuit all that we've spend hundreds of billions of dollars and centuries finding out, we really are like dumb little insects in a way.
You have no idea how far reaching your videos are going. My oldest son is absolutely obsessed with space. He's six. When he saw this it's almost like it changed him. He absolutely has to see this before bed so "he can dream about the stars in space". Please make more. We've watched every one of your videos.
I also should point out that this very video has grabbed ahold of me as well. When I'm away at work I watch it before bed. I want to learn more about space and the stars. What is a good website for things like this?
Thanks for your super kind comment! Most spacey stuff I get clued into from the 'space' section of reddit (reddit.com/r/space) but linked from there you might find some sites in particular that focus on particular things that you find captivating. Phil Plait's Bad Astronomy Blog is interesting but a bit more technical. You could also try sites like Universe Today which aggregate space news and discoveries, aimed more at a general audience. Have fun!
I was also six when I saw a documentary about Gagarin. The world was never the same again. My grandfather would tell me about God and heaven above us, and would like "do you have a moment to talk about space?"...hahahah

Bro you will be more amazed if u knew that Quran abounds with scientific facts which appeared centuries before their discovery by science. This demonstrates according to supporters that the Quran must be of divine origin. Among these miracles said to be found in the Quran are "everything, from relativity, quantum mechanics, Big Bang theory, black holes and pulsars, genetics, embryology, modern geology, thermodynamics, even the laser and hydrogen fuel cells" Check this out bro if you like science try it out! Its like a spoiler book that tells you what’s happening now and future! Also Surah Dhariyat Miraculous Verse As per Quran, the word heaven refer to what lies above the Earth. ... This phrase thus means “We expand the sky or the universe to a great extent.” This is the outcome that science has arrived today, and the Quran mentioned such a fact centuries before the invention of the first telescope.
@@user-jz5ku9lg1t thanks bro for your effort,May the Almighty rewards you highest place in heaven, myself am in tears right now to know that the God of all creation and the skies remembers us and have sent us messngers along with our history from Adam(pbuh) till Muhammad(pbuh) with the Quran which presents the creations of the skies as a reminder and signs of the true One almighty God worthy of worship, All praise is to Allah the most merciful. the way to survive, the way to Almighty God the Glorious Quran.

Yeah and if the colors are correct then the more red they are the older the light is b/c of the expansion of space. Or maybe Andromeda is to close to be significantly affected by this
@@Tiagomottadmello Only those big bright stars from our galaxy are that close (in the foreground). Andromeda is 2.5 *million* light years away, with the front stars getting here maybe a hundred thousand years sooner than the back stars. Crazy stuff!
This for me is the most beautiful video found on the internet. I watch it regularly, to remember how small we are in this universe and to be amazed at the greatness of God. Thank you Dave for being able to combine images of superlative beauty with music that expresses the power of creation.
Now imagine that most of those stars have planets orbiting them. Many of those planets are habitable, and many of those probably have life and civilizations. How many... thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of civilizations does Andromeda have if it is estimated to have 1 trillion stars? Watching it on my 4K display and being able to see individual stars have stunned me. And I have no shame to admit it brought tears to my eyes.
Beyond awesome, even beyond description. Simply 'Out of this World'. The distances involved are unimaginable. You do have to wonder what else and who else is out there ?
Fun fact: The distances between stars in our own galaxy and between those on Andromeda is so vast that when our galaxies finally collide it is almost a statistical impossibility that any 2 stars will collide.
I am on my way becoming a teacher. I showed this video for twenty 10-year old kids. Before I started the film I explained to them that space was big, and that there were many stars in the universe. I asked them to guess how many. They answer varied from between thousand to a billion. We talked about space for a few minutes. I then started this film on a projector. I can only say that their reaction was wonderful, filled with awe and wonder. Thank you. Keep up the good work:)
I don't understand why some people feel insignificant after watching this. I feel amazed by the fact that among billions of possibilities we happen to exist. I so feel lucky and thankful!
dude we dont even feel or remember what happened billions of years before us. And yet we are here. We didnt wait to be here. We just suddenly gain consciousness and here we are. consciousness is inevitable and it happens somewhere in the universe. If it wasnt earth it would be somewhere else in different timelapse.
@Doc Possum There are far too many factors to be considered that we can't possibly say the chances are "low enough." We really have no idea one way or the other.
and to think thats just one of many billions or even trillions of galaxies in the universe, is just... i dont even know what word to describe it
Год назад+4
The craziest part to me actually has to be that there was no transition as they zoomed in. Everything is actually in that very image. It all fits because of the insanely large resolution
It would take 10 000 years just to count the number of stars in that galaxy. Here's why: Let's say it's 300 000 000 000 Estimate is between 200 000 000 000 and 500 000 000 000) stars in that galaxy. If you spend 8 hours every day counting and you count 4 times as fast as seconds.
As the commenter above said there's estimated around 1 TRILLION stars in Andromeda.. Milky-way is estimated to have around 100 - 400 Billion.... 100 - 400 *BILLION* Stars is Alot!!! Now ad to that, all the planets & moons of those potential 400 billion stars.. We're in a pretty decent size Galaxy!!!! Andromeda though... *RIDICULOUSLY HUGE!!!* *☆1 T R I L L I O N☆ Stars... (then the planets & moons)* Just Imagine...
You'd think that somewhere in all that mess of stars and planets there's gotta be a place where the better option to buying more printer ink is NOT to buy a whole new printer.
+pixl warrior Who told you they have "gigapixels" or naming our galaxy a "galaxy" or the "milky way" .. .. or even "watching"; that's more mindbowing isnt it :'D
Just goes to show how insignificant the endeavors of humanity are in comparison to the vastness of the cosmos-the accolades we receive, territorial disputes we see and hear in the news, insecurities towards other people we experience-just nada, zilch, zero, nothing. Therefore, why would we effin care about what other people think about us anyway. So, live your best life in the grand scheme of things in this dark yet fascinating home called the universe 😊
No life other than us is like taking a mug of water from sea and telling no fish...there are trillions of fish in ocean and so there are millions of lifeforms like us in whole universe.
It amazes me when I see the galaxies to think, God is even bigger than this. We are like a tiny pinpoint in the vast sea of God's presence. The fact that God shows his love to such microscopic creatures as we are... its hard to even fathom. ✝️❤
Nick Johnson Because it's so impossibly small compared to what everything is. We have the mental capacity to see millions of galaxies, which alone is more significant than all of our money has ever bought.
When faced with the level of technical scientific knowledge and technology we have achieved and created, no one on earth today should starve to death and be without lifes essentials. Money, at this point, is holding humanity back from its true potential.
Nick Johnson Self-centered much? What I'm saying is we spend our lives running in inconceivably small circles trying to accumulate money and status when in reality none of that matters beyond staying alive.
Damn...this is making me feel insignificant, make me think that one day I am gonna be dead, and I will be part of that entire magnificent. But at the same time make me feel special, because for some reason, i am actually here. We all are gonna die some day. So let's make our lives worth it. 💜 Good vibes to everyone reading this, attract your dreams, and make them come true.
Some day trillions of years from now entire universe is gong to die and when the last star dies out it will be nothing but a dark and cold universe. So what? Everything physical has to pass on someday even the universe.
The Legend Then the energy spreads so far apart within the universe it can no longer hold a spacial vacuum and then inverts like a rubber-band. Then BOOM the universe begins again in a large explosion.
@@theragingcyclone So then that makes me think from your comment, what if there was a God that would let us eternally exist and never let us humans go extinct?
@@plexell735 Same thing here. But we just don't know if there is one. Surely there has to be a way to find out if God exists? Or maybe I'm just completely wrong lol
It is really terrifying to imagine the size of our galaxy..the giant black holes that live in the heart of galaxies..Nebula and their magical colors.. Even if I am an atheist, looking at the sky makes me see God with certainty
Yuri Neijhorst I mean you are not wrong. And against the odds, we survived and evolved past nature’s ways of evolution, building society etc and look where we are now
marvar gare yes people are stupid and take a shit ton of stuff they don’t understand at all for granted, but seriously now, were the times when we were afraid of predators better
With our current technology it would take us 18,000 years to go to the nearest star from the sun. Now imagine conquering our own galaxy or even andromeda. R.I.P. And light itself takes 4.3 years to go to the nearest star.
After watching this even if someone says there is no God then i would say he is absolutely clueless that how this far dense universe has been created on its own...i dont believe that everything is created without a creator so 100 percent there is a god and he doesnt bother to show himself to us tiny creatures that demand him to show himself....because we are nothing
*After watching this even if someone says there is no God then i would say he is absolutely clueless* I see stars here, not god. Beside Timmy, tell me which god, and why yours?
@@ryderpham5464 Yes but it took 2.5 million years to get here, thus we're seeing 2.5 Million light years ago. What is actually there we will see in another 2.5 Million years. At this moment.
Tinkle Tingler It's a little thing, but we're not seeing it 2.5 million light years ago, we're seeing it 2.5 million years ago. If something was right in front of you, you'd be seeing it a millisecond ago, not a light-millisecond ago.

8 years after this came out, and it still gives me chills.
I've had a recurring reminder to watch it for the past 5 years and it STILL blows my mind.
Every. Single. Time.
Andromeda has 1.232 x 10^12 stars and that’s just one galaxy out of 100 billion galaxies…
Do they play golf in Andromeda?
Its amazing and mind boggling that mostly every single dot is a star and they are densely packed, yet they are light years apart from each other.
Wonder how many of those stars have planets.?
Look up Hubble ultra deep field. Every dot in it is a galaxy.
And maybe in one, just one, have alien life, looking at our galaxy in the same way and wondering the same thing. That’s the question the pops in my mind.
@@KAT-dg6el There is no galaxies inside Andromeda. The other galaxies are outside on deep space.

This hits you right deep into your soul. Be grateful that we have a conscious to be aware of the universe and all its beauty. As far as we know no other species on this planet has ever been aware of the universe. We are lucky.

Who knows, an intelligent life form in andromeda could be peering at the Milky Way and thinking
*“Surely we cant be alone”*
It's almost certain that this is the case. Maybe not in Andromeda, but in one of the literal billions of other galaxies that exist in the Hubble Deep Field alone, let alone the trillions of others in the universe at large. I would also love for there to be other life in this galaxy, let alone Andromeda, but it is impossible for there not to be other life in the universe in general. It is just too big to support us alone.
@@RenegadeShepTheSpacer I agree. It would be very arrogant of us to think, all this space, and we the only one.
Definitely. All these stars and planets made from the same chemical elements as we are.
Undoubtedly, we are not alone..
Renegade Shep loves his M-6 Carnifex Hand Cannon I think it’s kind of strange that the Fermi paradox is used as explanation of why we are alone. The universe is unimaginable big and who’s to say even the most intelligent life can get to other galaxies let alone other stars. The distances are too large to say for certain whether interstellar and especially intergalactic journeys are even remotely possible.
@@RenegadeShepTheSpacer There are Klingons, Karsashions, Romulans and Vulcans in just the quarter of the Milky Way we live in. Plus More!!
it really puts in perspective how fighting against each other is such a waste. We could spend our resources on space exploration rather than war. We are all Earthlings, a family. I wish everyone could see that.
It's nice to see someone else who has their head in the right place.
Rachel Marilyn Wilde A tiny family on a little pale blue dot xD
Rachel Marilyn Wilde i could see that
awe that's very kind to say
Rachel Marilyn Wilde That's why I liked the movie 2010. Also the one who created Andromeda said "Look! The nations are like a drop from a bucket, And as the film of dust on the scales they are regarded" Isaiah 40:15. We're just dust fighting dust.
7 years later and this is still one of the most beautiful videos I've seen. I'm still high.
It is amazing that we can resolve individual stars in galaxies outside our own. The countless hours and effort of so many people that made this possible are tremendous.
Humanity is awesome! Keep exploring.
Not only stars but also planets. In fact Andromeda has a number of stars with confirmed exoplanets.
And that is just one galaxy.....
And there are 100 billion more in the observable universe....
Tony Ragsdale Actually I think there are 2 trillion galaxies
Very possible. www.ast.cam.ac.uk/public/ask/2360 is where I got my number from. Posted in 2012, I'm sure a lot has changed since then.
theres hundreds of billions of galaxies. ik.....makes you wanna die lol
That was just part of it, not even the complete galaxy.
*Did you realize that you were watching a moment that was 2 million years ago!!!*
+MIKE ZEROH Exactly, there are millions and possibly billions of stars from andromeda that may not even exist anymore due to the death of those stars but we still see the light they sent to use 2 million years ago! It really is mind blowing.
In theory it is possible but it is substantially closer to us than we actually realize. That galaxy is moving toward us at a speed of 250,000 miles per hour and at that speed it will only take another 4 billion years for the collision with the milky way. So much to still learn!
+Grind Time Yeah, ya right. And according to most astrophysicist types we won't notice a thing because no 2 stars from either galaxy are ever going to collide. There are several doing it now.
+Alex SH .....when the light that made that photo left Andromeda.... we just became a fully up right walking ape.
+Alex SH Yes but universally wise, out of human comprehension and logic, 2 million years are nothing..
Many years after this blew my mind for the very first time... I still continue to watch it an amazement. I now design planetariums and remain fascinated enough with this video to continue to watch it on a regular basis. It's. Spectacular. So much spectacularness
Please let me know if you would like to make a new version with updated visuals, music made for this, an explanations.
Of all the images taken of space, this the one that has given me the most clear visual communication of how big the universe is, especially when you consider this is just one of billions of galaxies.
NOW DO SOME OF YOU REALIZE !?!?! Do you now realize how preposterous it is to say there's no Alien lifeforms out there far more advanced than ours?
I bet they even already noticed us and categorized Earth as "mostly harmless".
Tommaso Soru Or "Harmful if released into the Galaxy"
Dreadmyshadow Or not important... I wanted to create a short of an alien team aboard their spaceship picking up a reading for a nuclear anomaly in an area that is not notice by those species who space travel. So they get excited thinking that a species has recently discovered teleportation or travel beyond the speed of light. But when the get here, nothing... then they focus on the land mass where the reading of the first burst happen then a flash of light. With horror they realize what this precious energy is being used for... they are so depressed and label our solar system a 'danger zone' for other more advanced cultures to be warned. And one of them remarks "I've seen this type of thing before. They won't last more than 100 cycles around their sun before they destroy themselves, and good riddance the universe needs to be spared from such destructive/conquering creatures." Then they leave.
We may well be the most advanced in the universe. SOMEONE has to be. We're the most advanced civilization that we're aware of, at least. The search never ends.
Tommaso Soru More like "Crazies and best to avoid"
There's probably some huge galactic war we have no clue about

So many stars and they look so close to each other. Knowing that it would take thousands of years to travel between each one, puts in to perspective the size of a Galaxy!
Fun fact- There are more galaxies in the universe than there are stars in andromeda.
Of course.
Yep

Fun fact there may be more universes in the multiverse than galaxies in our universe
Jo Kah its just a speculation, not a fact.
This brings tears of joy to my eyes.
Why are you happy?
What this video is telling us is pretty much that we don't matter. We're nothing.
Once I came to terms that the universe isn't centered around me, and my narcissism faded, I really began to appreciate everything in my life---knowing it's all temporary, including me, and must be enjoyed now, not tomorrow. Something about the idea that you will live forever in some paradise dulls the experience of life. Once you come to terms with that it's not forever, you'll begin living. Religious people have said to me my life must be empty and have no purpose. How wrong they are. And how ironic that is. Some guy stumbling through life under the haze of religious hypnotism who thinks some god is watching and judging every move he makes saying my life is shit. Yeah, right.
+Hampurilias - The tears of joy come from the realisation that we are a part of this wonderous universe. We do matter.

Lucas Ferreira Why?
This is one of my favorite videos of all time and one everyone should watch
Man, if only we can realize how little most of our problems are truly and how magnificent and grandiose the Universe is, Life would be more Peaceful.
How anyone could look at this, and think we're alone in the universe is beyond me. This just one of TRILLIONS of galaxies too. We aren't even a spec of dust in the universe.
+John Wick They might say GOD did it, and uses gravity distortion to make things look far away, and all that nonsense.
The fact that people think the universe was created for humans and only humans bothers me. We are an advanced bread of ape living on a small planet orbiting an average star within a galaxy containing billions of other stars within a universe containing trillions of galaxies.Theres nothing special or unique about us besides being relatively intelligent compared to the life forms here on earth.
Josh Rubin Yea, but what if humans are not so advanced or intelligent, yet ?
+Dragnoxz Zanox thats exactly what I was saying. We are only smart compared to other life forms here on earth.
Josh Rubin But we have capitalism, and that is obsolete. Humanity is not yet ready to transfer into a modern society where capitalism is not clenched like a security blanket. I think humanity could be better than that.
Everyone should be required to watch this. It's humbling, thought provoking, and forces us out of our comfort zone.
SlypherSpoons self-important, not self-importance. I won't go into any other of your errors, but they're annoying and I can't take you seriously. Nice attempt to sound remotely intelligent.
This could be the most pointless comment I've read. Go read a book, and get a life. Maybe learn how to construct a sentence. Lol, what a joke.
I agree. This is incredibly humbling. We think we're so important yet we are so small. Yet at the same time, this video helps me think no mater what happens in life, in the end, everything will be ok.
i dont think this really forces anyone out of their comfort zone, i feel in my comfort zone when watching it, but it definitely is humbling. The existence of other intelligent life is practically undeniable after watching.
exactly
Your mom is thought provoking. Sexual thoughts.
And we are a part of this. We are a product of this universe. I'm speechless.

+BananaBread It's all relative :) We see but a tiny fraction of the EM spectrum, we can only hear a fraction of the audio spectrum, we only experience a tiny fraction of time scales, of distance scales, of size scales, of energy scales. Compared to the full range of reality that we can access with the science and math tools we've developed, our bodies are laughably incapable of experiencing it in a meaningful or intuitive way. But we are exceedingly good at understanding our tiny slice of reality, because that's what our brains were made for.
Compared to some imaginary beings which could intuit all that we've spend hundreds of billions of dollars and centuries finding out, we really are like dumb little insects in a way.
You have no idea how far reaching your videos are going. My oldest son is absolutely obsessed with space. He's six. When he saw this it's almost like it changed him. He absolutely has to see this before bed so "he can dream about the stars in space". Please make more. We've watched every one of your videos.
I also should point out that this very video has grabbed ahold of me as well. When I'm away at work I watch it before bed. I want to learn more about space and the stars. What is a good website for things like this?
Thanks for your super kind comment! Most spacey stuff I get clued into from the 'space' section of reddit (reddit.com/r/space) but linked from there you might find some sites in particular that focus on particular things that you find captivating. Phil Plait's Bad Astronomy Blog is interesting but a bit more technical. You could also try sites like Universe Today which aggregate space news and discoveries, aimed more at a general audience. Have fun!
We need more people like your son . congratularions !!

Bro you will be more amazed if u knew that Quran abounds with scientific facts which appeared centuries before their discovery by science. This demonstrates according to supporters that the Quran must be of divine origin. Among these miracles said to be found in the Quran are "everything, from relativity, quantum mechanics, Big Bang theory, black holes and pulsars, genetics, embryology, modern geology, thermodynamics, even the laser and hydrogen fuel cells"
Check this out bro if you like science try it out! Its like a spoiler book that tells you what’s happening now and future! Also Surah Dhariyat Miraculous Verse
As per Quran, the word heaven refer to what lies above the Earth. ... This phrase thus means “We expand the sky or the universe to a great extent.” This is the outcome that science has arrived today, and the Quran mentioned such a fact centuries before the invention of the first telescope.

and to think thats just one of many billions or even trillions of galaxies in the universe, is just... i dont even know what word to describe it
The craziest part to me actually has to be that there was no transition as they zoomed in. Everything is actually in that very image. It all fits because of the insanely large resolution
It would take 10 000 years just to count the number of stars in that galaxy. Here's why:
Let's say it's 300 000 000 000 Estimate is between 200 000 000 000 and 500 000 000 000) stars in that galaxy. If you spend 8 hours every day counting and you count 4 times as fast as seconds.
As the commenter above said there's estimated around 1 TRILLION stars in Andromeda.. Milky-way is estimated to have around 100 - 400 Billion.... 100 - 400 *BILLION* Stars is Alot!!!

Because it's so impossibly small compared to what everything is. We have the mental capacity to see millions of galaxies, which alone is more significant than all of our money has ever bought.
When faced with the level of technical scientific knowledge and technology we have achieved and created, no one on earth today should starve to death and be without lifes essentials. Money, at this point, is holding humanity back from its true potential.
Adam Green so we should just quit our jobs and become homeless and dedicate our lives to thinking about space which i couldnt give 2 fucks about?
Nick Johnson Self-centered much? What I'm saying is we spend our lives running in inconceivably small circles trying to accumulate money and status when in reality none of that matters beyond staying alive.
Damn...this is making me feel insignificant, make me think that one day I am gonna be dead, and I will be part of that entire magnificent. But at the same time make me feel special, because for some reason, i am actually here.

After watching this even if someone says there is no God then i would say he is absolutely clueless that how this far dense universe has been created on its own...i dont believe that everything is created without a creator so 100 percent there is a god and he doesnt bother to show himself to us tiny creatures that demand him to show himself....because we are nothing

I see stars here, not god.
Beside Timmy, tell me which god, and why yours?

@@ryderpham5464 Yes but it took 2.5 million years to get here, thus we're seeing 2.5 Million light years ago. What is actually there we will see in another 2.5 Million years. At this moment.
Tinkle Tingler It's a little thing, but we're not seeing it 2.5 million light years ago, we're seeing it 2.5 million years ago. If something was right in front of you, you'd be seeing it a millisecond ago, not a light-millisecond ago.

Is there somebody in the Andromeda Galaxy watching "Gigapixels of the Milky Way"....and wondering? Watching and wondering, just like we are?
