The sun: our planet’s source of light and life. Without it, we would all die, but what would happen if we had just a little bit more sunlight?
For many, the sun reliably rises in the morning, and sets at night.
But there exists a place on Earth up in Svalbard, Norway, where people have to live with the sun that doesn't set for 76 straight days at a time. How do they cope?
And what would happen if the sun never set, ever again? Let’s get into it!

3:07 Axial precession is NOT the reason for the apparent position of the sun in the sky at differing latitudes. Axial precession is a very slow (26,000 year cycle) movement of the earth's axis in respect to the celestial background. It affects climate and star positions in the night sky. What you are after is axial tilt in relation to where the earth is in its orbit. When it is this way */* and the sun is here O, you have the solstice in June (summer northern hemisphere, winter southern hemisphere). When it is this way \ and the sun is here O, you have the solstice in December (winter northern hemisphere, summer southern hemisphere). When its tilt is at right angles (perpendicular) to the sun's position, like this *|* and the sun is here O, you have an equinox, either March (spring in north, autumn in south) or September (autumn in north, spring in south).

Precession isn't what causes the seasons. It happens very, very slowly, on the order of many thousands of years. Seasons are caused *because* the precession is so much slower than our orbit around the sun. In any given year the tilt of the Earth can be treated as fixed for most purposes. If the tilt is fixed and the earth moves around the sun, then during different points in Earth's orbit, different parts of the globe tilt toward or away from the sun resulting in more or less sunlight for those areas. That's what causes seasons. It's not clear if you're intentionally implying this in the video but it could be interpreted that way due to the way in which it is presented, so I wanted to give you a heads-up.

[@atomcraft4067]

I agree. It's not very well explained.

[@cosmogoblin]

Thanks, came here to say this. Precession takes 26,000 years for a full turn, and simply means that the stars we see in each season are different than they were many thousands of years ago (so star signs, decided 2,300 years ago, are wrong - sorry, astrologers!)

I recently read a book "The City in the Middle of the Night" with a similar premise RE: living on a world that's tidally locked.

[@caffiend81]

Gah I am sorry for nit-picking 🤣 But the Earth itself is also very gooey/plastic. Even solid rock is flexible on large scales. So while the oceans WOULD migrate toward the poles initially, the Earth itself would also re-settle into a much more spherical shape under the force of gravity. So the oceans would migrate North/South because they respond faster to changing forces. But as the Earth compacted itself under gravity in the absence of rotation, the oceans would then flow back toward the equator again. Whether or not the coastlines would look mostly the same I have no idea. Though I suspect the associated seismic/volcanic events would be pretty severe so they could uh "rearrange" things a bit.

On Earth the air heated at the equator rises moves towards the respective poles, descends, and flows southward towards the equator. On a tidally locked planet that still had an atmosphere, the air might rise on the hot side, travel to the opposing cold side, descend, and flow back towards the hot side. The winds might be strong, and possibly enlargen the temperate zone, or move it towards the hot side. If there was warm water vapor, rain might develop where the two fronts collided. Given the situation on the sunny side of life rapidly evaporated any water, the resulting desert might not supply moisture like a warm ocean would. Could a tidally locked planet have an ocean? Would it be on the cold side near the twilight zone? My limited knowledge doesn't include if jetstreams would develop, and how they would affect the planet.

[@kalmeira9502]

It's actually theorized that a tidally locked planet could have a habitable temperature on both the sun side and the dark side due to the exchange of temperatures. The hot air from the sun side warming the dark side, while the cold air from the dark side cooling the sun side.

3:05 The axial procession happens over the course of 26000 years. Earth's axis is practically fixed, and that's why we can use polaris to navigate around. Midnight sun happens because the sun's position changes relative to the earth's axis as earth orbits around the sun.

While the Earth's tilt may change, it doesn't have to change to give us seasons. The very fact that it IS tilted gives us changing seasons. Imagine the earth's top tilted towards the sun during summer in the north then move the earth to the opposite side of the sun while keeping the Earth's tilt the same. The top will be tilted away from the sun and the north will have winter. It wobbles some, but that only changes when the seasons come. Things that spin also keep the orientation of their spin until something changes it.

Interestingly enough, even after the earth stopped rotating, it would actually resume to rotate slowly because the moon is still revolving around it.

[@PrymusOiadQaas]

We forgot about the internal friction of the layers of the Earth that would generate massive Earthquakes, Tsunamis (if there was any water left), and Volcanoes causing another disastrous event for those who think they are safe on high ground. The friction might create new and more fault lines and cracks forming new volcanoes and rifting canyons.

[@R3SerialDreams2]

Something important to note is that Earth's perfect rotation is helped made possible due to Luna (the moon). The presence of Luna's gravity is also, of course, what causes waves in the ocean. So the quickest way for Earth's rotation to be significantly altered would be if something happened to the moon.

The Earth would only rotate in 0.0006944444 RPM. Also, no, Earth's rotation is indeed caculated in MPS or KPH (Sometimes using Miles as well). The Equator's velocity is roughly 460 Meters Per Second. Nobody caculates celestial bodies rotating using RPM because it does not tell us anything about the actual velocity the surface on the planet is experiencing, rotation speed is (almost) always in Meters Per Second and is counted at the planet's equator at surface level.

i’m confused, why couldn’t someone just live really deep underground, no cold, no heat, and you could avoid the winds, oceans, water, ozone, and you could prepare yourself for the “being thrown 1000mph” somehow

[@simongobbato7758]

You can'really prepare for that honestly

[@pathofthetrickster]

They'd have to strap in when the inertia comes lol

[@skeleton.9754]

@@pathofthetrickster that’s what i was thinking

[@simongobbato7758]

Try having a car accident at 50kph, tell me what could happen if the same happened at 1000 :)

[@lavadreamer]

I learned about you from gamethory. You guys might want to do a collaboration together saying you both do stuff that are similar

[@joshuab4586]

Love the old school windows animation btw Brew!

[@Carlium]

You don't need to go all the way to Svalbard to experience the midnight sun. I can experience that now, and I live just north of the polar circle in the town of Bodø.

[@dontmindme2044]

Watching the start of the video as someone who grew up (and still lives) above the Arctic circle is wild. Like, "how do they cope?" blinders and thick curtains. Like, we have around 3 months of nightless nights, so it's weird to hear someone be so weirded out about our normal life.

for some reason i legit thought this was a brew x dead by daylight crossover

at 3:00 you say the axial precession is causing the opposing months. the way i have always understood it is that the tilt doesnt change a significant amount during one year. if it is on one side of the sun the top of the earth would tilt towards the sun (northern hemisphere summer) and if it is on the other it would tilt away (northern hemisphere winter). it is similar to spinning in a circle while holding a compass. the compass always points north but at one moment it is pointing towards you and another it is pointing away. axial precession (in my understanding) is a very slow and relatively small (though not unmeasurable) change in the exact angle of the tilt: the most commonly cited effect is the change of the north star, as the rotational axis points in a slightly different direction. in the compass analogy, imagine the needle wobbling a bit but still staying around north. it would still face north ish and its a small enough change that it doesnt affect the overall result of it facing towards you and then away from you. please excuse my overuse of parentheses and underuse of capital letters and apostrophes, and please correct me if any of this is incorrect on my part. thanks for reading, and have a great day!

[@veramae4098]

Yes. Axial precession is why the temple of osiris / ramses has an alter than the light of one particular star used to shine on, when the temple was built. 5,000 years ago. It doesn't anymore. But in about 20,000 years it will again.

I really needed this level of anxiety before going to bed

[@StudioAR]

Here's a video idea, what would happen if the earth's rotation *increased*? Say, by 5x? Or 20x?

[@user-jx2nx7mi2z]

what if you were to stand directly on a pole of the Earth when the Earth stopped rotating. Would you still experience inertia, or would a sort or phenomenon happen?

[@exnihilokonkin6122]

You'd spin in place if the stop was abrupt.

[@jhcoverdrive9287]

6:07 just be careful...if your pallet is at risk of burning, so are the insides of your nostrils and they’re more sensitive. So be sure to legit apply sunscreen up there 👆 just like you’re picking! Also, the insides of your ears can get it in those environments too. Then there’s proper lip protection as some petroleum based lip balm can actually intensify the burn and you’ll end up with big blisters in/on your lips. I spent some time on the glacier at Mt Hood over a few summers...reflected sunlight, especially at elevation is far worse than you think if you’ve never experienced it. I ended up with some light corneal burning just by taking too long switching goggle lenses (maybe 4-5 squinted minutes without eye protection was enough to ruin the next 2 days outright).

[@spacekid9680]

1:34 I was hoping you'd mention Cecelia! If you haven't seen her videos, you should. As someone who lives in the northern UK, I like to take photos during the minute of midnight during the summer solstice and it just looks like twilight.

[@baltousprime7897]

I wouldn't want to be some place where the sun never sets "when day breaks"...*wink*

[@SkyLexin]

man, who knew if the world just suddenly stopped spinning, would be so deadly.

[@MichaelSHartman]

Drive into a large tree at 40 mph.

[@774game]

Drink Nitroglycerin

[@jmtholmbo]

I was in Norway in the north for a month, and the sun didn't set the whole time. Also at times the sun was high in the sky like it was noon for like 2 weeks, even at midnight.

[@gabrielleolsen8605]

I so appreciate the fantasia clip at 13:44 ❤❤

[@azerchaii]

Death by sunlight? More like "dead by daylight", huh
