Nothing in the Universe is static. In the milky way, billions of stars orbit the galactic center.
Some, like our sun, are pretty consistent, keeping a distance of around 30,000 light years from the galactic center, completing an orbit every 230 million years.
This dance is not an orderly ballet - more like a skating rink filled with drunk toddlers. This chaos makes the galaxy dangerous. Our solar neighbourhood is constantly changing, with stars moving hundreds of kilometers every second.
Only the vast distances between objects protect us from the dangers out there. But we might get unlucky in the future. At some point we could encounter a star going supernova. Or a massive object passing by and showering earth with asteroids.
If something like this were to happen we would likely know thousands, if not millions of years in advance. But we still couldn’t do much about it.
Unless… we move our whole solar system out of the way.

I love the saying "Nearly 1% the speed of light" because you immediately understand that is still incredibly fast.
It's actually really slow considering space in our galaxy not to mention entire universe.
And considering average lifespan of a human or even a human civilization.
Speed of light is slow. 1% of that speed is extremely slow even if it's unimaginable to achieve with our technology.
Even if you don't consider travell possibility, only transfer of information, speed of light is extremely slow.
@@grzegorzbrzeczyszczykiewic1139 ok if it’s so slow then go and run 1% the speed of light right now

I absolutely love the snowball effect that this could have for human expansion through the galaxy. One Dyson Sphere makes the solar system our spaceship. As we orbit the galaxy backwards, we colonize another solar system by terraforming its planets, and we build a second Dyson Sphere around the new star. That star then gets its own Caplan Thruster and begins orbiting with us. Both of these solar systems can then colonize 1 more system each, for a total of 4 habitable solar systems. Those 4 then become 8, then 16, and so on. Exponential growth could have us owning the entire galaxy if we wanted to do so. Imagine that. 🤩
Dream on haha.

Evolution is a lie. There is abundant evidence that debunks the theory of evolution.
First of all, there are zero true transitional species.
Every single living thing can be classified as a eukaryote or a prokaryote, a fish or an amphibian, and so on.
If evolution was true, then there must be species that are a transition between two kinds of living things.
If evolution was true, then there must be species that are a transition between prokaryotes and eukaryotes, between fish and amphibians, and so on.
But there are none.
See, in order to be a true transitional species, a species must contain organisms from two different kinds of living things.
There is no other possible way to bridge the evolutionary gap between the different kinds of living things.
For example, a transitional species between fish and amphibians must contain some organisms which are scientifically classified as fish and some organisms which are scientifically classified as amphibians.
But there are no species like this.
The fact is that there are zero true transitional species.
Secondly, there are zero transitional organs.
If evolution was true, then there must be organs that are a transition between two different organs.
For example, according to the theory of evolution, lungs evolved from swim bladders. So there should be an organ that is a transition between a swim bladder and a lung.
But there is no organ that is a transition between a swim bladder and a lung.
These are just some of the many evidences that prove that the theory of evolution is a fairy tale.

@@SimonWoodburyForget Indeed but sustaining fragile human life across galaxies is complicated. It requires to carry a lot of stuff. It might even be the case that we need the whole planet and its ecosystem to survive. Could we even survive without the moon and its tidal force? How about with a different rate and size of rocks crashing into the Earth as cause by other planets? Don't underestimate how fragile we are in the long run.
@@SimonWoodburyForget Save your time. Don't drink coffee. :D
I generally disagree. Time is a resource like any other. It's finite over the lifespan of a single individual (duh), but it's renewable on the timescale of the human species.
But I agree, we have to prioritize. I however don't see how that's related at all. The whole video assume there is an actual need to relocate humanity.
Unless we take human evolution in our own hands (with gene editing or whatever) or without serious ecosystem shaping, there's no way of saying whether the bare minimum for human survival could some day become anything less than the entier solar system.
Or maybe what you mant is that moving the solar system is so slow that we'd be better off not moving it at all and leaving the problem for future generations?
@@SimonWoodburyForget I think you're kinda overestimating the value of time. What we all aim to maximize is happiness. Time is just a resource you can spend enjoying what you have or working to improve your futur happiness.
And I include "having saved futur generations from extinction" into the "immediate happiness" category.

Betelgeuse is going Super Nova soon. ;) Michael Keaton might have to save us with lasers! ;)
Reminds me of that spongebob episode. Why don't we just take the city and move it somewhere else?
me when i was 6:what if we strapped engines to earth or build a big engine that moves the star?
mom:your so creative sweety but that not realistic
10 years later:I KNEW IT WAS POSSIBLE
*based on a true story*

i was so scared of a Super nova in 2019 and this gave me a huge relief
bruh
if we end up doing this, we might be able to increase the life of the sun, so that we can focus on colonizing other solar systems before we actually need to leave ours
Fun drinking game: marathon all of Kurzgesagt's videos and take a shot every time they talk about building a big mirror in space.
"We could get unlucky in the future." This aged badly.
Until we all still die from 1 astroid.
i thought we, as an intelligent modern human civilization, would definetly be able to dodge events like global pandemics, asteroids or other events that we have specific mechanisms to counter against.
Nowadays, im convinced that if a catastropic event was to happen, it would definetly fucking happen. Our administrations are just so incompetent that we see a truck coming at us and are still not able to dodge it.
@@prohacker5086 so that means the entire humanity would get isekai'd ?

@@dianereymond1691 HAHA ALL THE FANFICTIONS I'D READ WILL FINALLY BE HELPFUL
well if you think about it since it came true
i love it when he says “in as little as a million years”
On the scale of a human lifetime a million years may as well be forever. Even on human civilization scale a million years is as good as forever. But on most other scales it really isn’t that long. Geologically things will have barely moved on Earth. On stellar evolution scales a million years is hardly anything. Our own sun has 4-5 billion more years and it’s fairly short-lived compared to red dwarfs that will keep on for several trillion years.
I mean, we're pretty close to curing aging. -- But also, life tends to re-evolve on earth -- like faster than we expect it to -- even when the whole planet was a sea of fire, some random bacteria survived somehow in the dust clouds that got kicked up into orbit (and they survived reentry as well) -- maybe all that plastic in the ocean will be good fossil fuel for the next generation of earthlings a million years from now.
We should probably also start thinking of a way to leave behind some time capsules -- like, maybe on our moon, or on that huge hexagon on Saturn or something...
It’s true though
@@BrainSlugs83 perhaps, who knows. But the plastic isnt good for us or the life currently here so why even try to look for a bright side of it...
@@BrainSlugs83A cure for aging would be a bad idea. Overpopulation will destroy us.
What a sight it would be to see the Milky Way receding in the sky. I'd use this thrust just to put the Sun in a polar orbit over the Milky Way so we could get a full view of it.
thats so cool!!! me and my student really liked the video
This channel gets better and better everyday
We're going full Issac Arthur now
yes, and they were already so good at the beginning I don't understand how they could be any better, but they can, obviously

well not every day. But every video.
I agree. Now we need to find out why the next time we'll see Kursgesagt is in 12020 like suggested at the end. Or am I missing something?

Evolution is a lie. There is abundant evidence that debunks the theory of evolution.
First of all, there are zero true transitional species.
Every single living thing can be classified as a eukaryote or a prokaryote, a fish or an amphibian, and so on.
If evolution was true, then there must be species that are a transition between two kinds of living things.
If evolution was true, then there must be species that are a transition between prokaryotes and eukaryotes, between fish and amphibians, and so on.
But there are none.
See, in order to be a true transitional species, a species must contain organisms from two different kinds of living things.
There is no other possible way to bridge the evolutionary gap between the different kinds of living things.
For example, a transitional species between fish and amphibians must contain some organisms which are scientifically classified as fish and some organisms which are scientifically classified as amphibians.
But there are no species like this.
The fact is that there are zero true transitional species.
Secondly, there are zero transitional organs.
If evolution was true, then there must be organs that are a transition between two different organs.
For example, according to the theory of evolution, lungs evolved from swim bladders. So there should be an organ that is a transition between a swim bladder and a lung.
But there is no organ that is a transition between a swim bladder and a lung.
These are just some of the many evidences that prove that the theory of evolution is a fairy tale.
@Megaven 11 I'm simply spreading the truth.
@@tylerb9877 there are fish with feet
@@tylerb9877 Transitional organs? Transitional species? Where did you get that bunk? Evolution predicts none of those. It predicts incremental random improvements to survival odds. Nothing that looks like "yeah this'll be really cool once it's done", because that doesn't help survival in this generation, and so quickly dies out.
This concept featured prominently in the Stephen Baxter novel Galaxias. Really fascinating.
All of this stuff is so mind boggling

I think the original Shkadov thruster was supposed to be spherical. The problem with a parabolic mirror is that it hard to keep it in place. If parts of the mirror are reflecting light in directions other than along their axis to the star, then the radiation pressure exerted on these parts of the mirror cannot be balanced by the sun's gravity. In theory, you could fix this if the mirror was sturdy enough, but maintaining that kind of tension sounds like a tall order. I think you can solve this by rotating the mirror, but this becomes complicated as different parts of it need to be rotating at different speeds and have different thicknesses.
I remember back then when this video was released, we were getting ready to leave 2019. Now 2022 is also almost over. What a journey!

I specifically came to the comment section to find this joke
Look the movie "Wandering Earth"
How this engine was made
Scientist 1: the earth might hit another star
Scientist 2: why don't we get the solar system and push it somewhere else
Wait, that's not a scientist, that's Patrick!
@@Kurbo64 What's the difference!?
@@person8064 You right, Patrick was a scientist the whole time!
It is estimated that when Andromeda merges with the Milky Way Galaxy that there will be no solar collisions due to the vast distances between them. The main problem I see is in being able to accurately predict a cosmic apocalypse millions of years in the future in time to be able to construct a device that would move our Solar System out of harms way in time for it to be of any use to save us. Reducing the mass of the sun to extend its lifecycle may be viable option to pursue as that would be a clearly foreseeable goal which could be developed with an achievable goal in mind.

This has got to be one of my favourite videos! I am glad i was born early enough to witness the creation of these ideas but damn i wish i could of been born in a future where this was possible.
Exactly.
If immortality doesn't exist in our lifetime, I'd be greatly disappointed for existing too early.
