5 "Impossible" Things That Can Happen on Other Planets (Reaction)

[@Blues666]

GJ 1214 is the name of the star (it's a red dwarf about 48 lightyears away from us) and "b" means, that it is the second object in this system. If there are more planets in this system, they would be named GJ 1214 b, GJ 1214 c, GJ 1214 d and so on. GJ 1214 has no traditional name, because that star is very small and is not visible for the naked eye. GJ stands for "Gliese & Jahreis", two astronomers who made the last edition of the "Catalogue of nearby stars". 1214 is the number of the star in this catalogue. Sorry for my bad english... ;-)

I'll try to keep this brief-ish. Exoplanets are named after their star followed by the letter b for the closest in, c for the next, etc. (Current record is a star with 8 planets, notated b-i.) As for the naming of stars, that is an annoying system depending on when and how they were discovered. Several dozen of the brightest stars have traditional names (e.g., Sirius, Vega, Rigel, Polaris), mostly from classical Latin, Greek, Arabic, or Persian. Then all these plus other brighter stars got named for their (Latin) constellation preceded by a Greek Letter (Alpha Centauri, Tau Ceti, Theta Scorpii, etc.). The letters were assigned in alphabetical order roughly from brightest to dimmest. To complete the catalog of "visible" stars (close to ten thousand), numbers are used after the Greek letters are used up. All this is just background context to the question asked in the video. Modern practice is to assign designations based on the project in which they were first noticed or recorded. In the 20th century, a series of catalogs was published by an astronomer named Gliese ("glee-za") and his collaborators. The first version had stars named Gliese 1061, etc. For the first extension, he named them GI 1 - GI 915. (Reason for "I" unclear.) Then on the next one he had help from someone named Jahreiss, so those stars got named GJ 1000, etc. Which explains exoplanet "GJ 1214 b" (@ 47 ly). Then there was the Kepler mission, which was the first satellite designed specifically to search for exoplanets. Eventually a few thousand were found. One of the earliest was Kepler 16 b (245 ly). Around the same time a satellite named CoRoT was launched by France/ESA with a similar mission, and apparently found CoRoT 7 b (520 ly), among others. An earlier catalog of some 225 thousand stars was published by astronomer Henry Draper. Hence the later serendipitous discovery of HD 189733 b (63 ly). As for Titan, well Saturn is the Roman counterpart of Chronos, who was himself a Titan, so I can't explain it; but it's 16-17 light days from the Sun. Personally, I'm hoping for critters in the planet-wide watery ocean of Jupiter's moon Europa (about half as far away).

I agree with you about tornadoes. When I was younger I devoured anything I could get on meteorology, especially storms. I even have a couple of courses from The Great Courses, one on general meteorology and one on extreme weather. Very interesting. But it's even more frightening to consider that an EF5 tornado (301 mph winds) doesn't even compare to those winds on the planet HD198733-b. Tornadoes are why I wouldn't live in the middle of the country. But then, the mid-south is another tornado-prone area these days (I'm from Nashville) and I'd be leery of moving back there. I used to have some interest in astronomy; this video makes me think of getting back into it perhaps. Thank you.

[@gkiferonhs]

Usually whoever first publishes about a given celestial body is granted naming rights, but there are far too many object to give anthropomorphic names and they uses the systemic names using letters and numbers that indicate where the object is, where and usually when it was discovered. These are sometimes referred to as catalog names because an ordered listing of these bodies is available.

[@Pixelblurr]

As someone who lives in Oklahoma, Tornadoes are incredibly scary to my friends who live in other states. Most people I know don't get freaked out by them though. I have slept through a few of them. Just depends on the person, but they can be very devastating when you go up to an F3-5.

[@Simon-hb9rf]

regarding the "deepest point in the ocean" part i do agree with your logic that if we have only "mapped" a small part of the ocean floor we have no idea what would be the deepest, however there is some mathematical and scientific basis for this assumption. in 1950 Marie Tharp produced the first map of the Atlantic ocean floor with a focus on the subsea fault lines, this finally proved theories of continental drift and later was instrumental in developing our modern understanding of plate tectonics. this lead to many such mapping efforts focusing on fault lines. so basically although we have only mapped a small part of the ocean that effort has been largely focused on the massive rifts left in the ocean floor from active plate tectonics which would logically be deeper then areas with no active fault lines. so while it is possible there is some deeper part we have somehow missed until we can map the entirety in inch by inch detail, its reasonable and probable to assume that the deepest point would be in one of several specific regions where the geology would most likely allow for it. still that's why science always qualifies the statement with the word "known" but its not as wild a guess as you may assume at first. this is of course a very brief simplified version of a poor explanation, but the point im trying to get across is that scientific facts always have a long and fascinating history of exactly how scientific communities came to their conclusions. if more people understood the reasoning and process behind establishing scientific fact people would be far less likely to dismiss them so quickly.

[@2apocalypse-X]

The scientific nomenclature for the designations of exoplanets usually consists of two elements: (1) a proper noun or abbreviation, sometimes with associated numbers, followed by (2) a lowercase letter.For example, 51 Pegasi b is an exoplanet around the star 51 Pegasi in the constellation Pegasus. The star received this particular catalogue designation by English astronomer John Flamsteed in his star atlas. Another common star catalogue used for exoplanet names is the GJ catalogue of German astronomers Wilhelm Gliese and Hartmut Jahreiß (Gliese & Jahreiß, 1991). An example is the exoplanet GJ 1214 b, which orbits a host star that is the 1214th entry in this star catalogue. Still other exoplanets are named after the Henry Draper (HD) and Hipparchos (HIP) catalogues, and some are named for their star’s common name, as in the case of Fomalhaut b. Some exoplanet designations often stem from the instrument that discovered them, such as the Kepler planets (named for the NASA Kepler space telescope; e.g., Kepler-186f) and the CoRoT planets (named for the French Space Agency's (CNES) and the European Space Agency's (ESA) spacecraft, Convection Rotation and planetary Transits; e.g., CoRoT-7b). The number in each planet designation refers to the order of the extrasolar system's detection or identification in the instrument's data. heres a link to the full artical if you care to read it www.iau.org/public/themes/naming_exoplanets/#:~:text=The%20letter%20indicates%20the%20order,%2C%20d%3B%20and%20so%20on.

Very interesting. I share your fascination with the ocean. Grew up not a mile from it so we could hear the waves crashing at night. I don't think I could live inland, I'd miss it too much. Growing up we would dream and talk about it - imagine if the ocean would recede completely for just one day so we could go out exploring its depths - what we might find! U-boats from WW2, wrecks of the Spanish armada, maybe even viking longships or long lost treasures or ancient villages/towns reclaimed by the sea. These videos, on space in particular, always make me think of the age of exploration and crossing the oceans. Fascinating - lovely to feel that thrill of the imagination being stirred. I have no book recommendations on this one - the imagination should suffice this time.

So normally planets are named by the star they orbit and the satellite/telescope that discovered them. We named constellations after Greek characters in mythos and our planets after Roman gods.. those are the basics of naming

[@conorstewart2214]

As for naming the planets it is probably named after the star it orbits, like the star is called “GJ1214” and it is the second planet from the star so it is planet “B”. As for why the star would be named that it was probably discovered during some mission or research project that found lots of stars so they just assign it a number, like the first planet spoken about in the video was one of the planets discovered by the Kepler mission, so it is named Kepler plus a number afterwards. I just looked it up, the “GJ” is short for “Gleise” somehow and it is just assigned a number and it is just an exoplanet of Gleise 1214. I couldn’t find any information on why it is named Gleise though but there are a group of stars all named Gleise plus a number.

[@rauminen4167]

Yeah, it's mostly guesswork. The two main ways of detecting planets are the "wobble" of the star, which gives you mass, and transit - when we're lucky with the angle and the planet passes in front of the star - which gives you size. Now, if you have both, you can calculate density - from which you can guess what the planet is made of. Gas, rock, or something in between like water. With the James Webb though, we are able to get accurate spectroscopic analysis of a planet's atmosphere during transit - basically we can tell what it's made of. Which is HUGE. If there's a lot of oxygen, there's a real good chance that there's life.

He's a personal hero for his decades of environmental education and advocacy.

4:51 I believe all those pictures we see of other Exoplanets outside out Solar System are artist renditions interpreting the visual data analyzed by Astrophysicists and not actual photographs of the Planets taken by a telescope!

[@Simon-hb9rf]

regarding the information of distant planets, i will try to keep this comment shorter than my former essay on the depth of the ocean and simply say, most of what we know about these planets comes from a process called "astronomical spectroscopy" which involves studying the light of other stars as a planet passes in front of them, by studying this light we can determine the chemical composition of the atmosphere the light passed through, this can give us all kinds of information from how much oxygen is in a planets atmosphere or even if there are compounds and pollutants that would be indicative of the presence of plants or animals or even heavy industry, combined with things like the size, temperate and distance of the planet from its sun we can deduce much about the conditions on its surface. although as you suggested there is always a margin for error and some basic assumptions have to be made that may not always hold true for every planet, such as its mineral composition etc, we can only make assumptions based on our current understanding, sadly until we get a probe close enough for other methods of data collection we can never say for sure, but the more planets and stars we study the more our understanding grows and the more accurate our predictions should become.

I'm no physicist, but I suspect that a planet's composition is determined in a similar manner to stars with spectral absorption & emissions lines that can be decomposed into signatures that represent the most likely chemical compositions.

In the public domain, most of the available sea floor maps accuracy is about 328 feet (100 meters). The best land maps we have right now has about 15 cm accuracy and there's now efforts to make a 10cm global map.

Gj 1214b is 40 ly away. A lot of the planets and stars are named after the telescope and or how they were discovered.
