There's a lot of weird stuff in the universe, but hollow planets? Do they make any physical sense?

[@cidien]

I know your comment is largely in jest, but he didn't really "prove" or "disprove" much of anything. What he did was give scientific reasons why he believes he's right. He just reasonably disproved very specific theories where he's assuming he has all the data on how it works. I'm not trying to argue in favor of hollow earth here, but people are becoming dangerously blind these days when the term "science" is being thrown around. If someone they perceive as an authority figure tell them something and that it's proven with science, people tend to stop any and all critical thinking and just accept it, and this is a really good example of that. I mean, heck, we're STILL teaching our kids the pyramids were the burial grounds for pharaohs in school for some reason. It's just crazy what people tend to accept just because they're told something by authority figures.

Does shell thickness affect this? If shell thickness is almost equal to the radius, it is still hollow? If it can’t be hollow, can it be porous? If so, what is the maximum porosity? Does size help? Can it be hollow if it is small enough?

[@GlobalEl1te]

Can you operate a hadron collider within a cold hollow core?

[@tiagoc.fdepaula2930]

The thickness, as well as the hardness, strength, resilience, density, mass, distribution of the material and what is filling the hollow affect it, the same goes for if it were porous. Making a hollow ball of talcum powder is more difficult than an iron one. Size matters in a radius sense, but the small hole in something massive still has a high chance of collapsing. I only imagine a hollow planet if the shell had the above characteristics in the most improved form possible (pure diamond maybe???) or the interior was filled with something extremely dense that prevented collapse (like molten rock).

It can be hollow if a mass like a neutron star was central and accounted for space between it and the accretion shell

Is there a smaller half shell with holes rotating around the sun in a perfect sphere? If the sun is in the middle and is equal distance from everything then how does ice happen? Thank god for the law of gravity, or someone would have to try answering them.

[@opmus]

Not a flat earther but spent one to many nights down the rabbit hole. From my understanding they think the sun and moon are much smaller and closer to us. They still rotate but more on a 2D path. Kind of like a airplane flying around a city in a big circle.

8:13 If the shell's gravity cancelled out the gravity under our feet, then yes, we would float. But if the shell was spinning, then wouldn't the laws of centripetal force make an artificial gravity, meaning that you could walk on the ground?

[@ameliakoke1852]

My god man, good question. Toms twister at six flags ,spins and we get plastered to the wall like clothes in the washer on spin cycle.

[@howielowis458]

That would only work at certain points tho, wouldn't it? Like, if the hollow earth spins around its own axis and you stand at one of the poles you wouldn't be effected by the centripetal force, right? Likewise, the artificial gravity would grow stronger the closer you get to the center. I am far from being well versed in physics so correct me if i'm wrong here.

[@funfacts9110]

@@howielowis458 Yes, I think that you're right. I'm not sure if this is correct, but there is something called the Coriolis Effect, which is basically what you were talking about. A quick Google search says that it's how rotation affects things in different ways, so it changes the wind, the ocean currents etc.

[@williamadams5034]

I mean just saying but the weightlessness thing would've been true if we were living inside the inner part of the shell, not the outer part. Because we live on the outer part we would have the same gravitational pull it doesn't matter if it is hollow or solid. I'm not saying we live in a shell, but this definitely needs correction at 8:08 because we live in the outer part with our head pointing outwards whereas in video he is inside the shell with his head pointing towards the core not like the real life.

The anti-gravity issue with the shell applies on a stationary shell. If the shell is rotating, you will get centripetal force creating a gravity on the inner surface of the shell around its equator, which would dissipate as you head to the poles. In such a scenario you would then want tunnels to the outer side of the shell for living on the outside near the poles to have gravity towards the shell.

I'm surprised that Kyle didn't use the most basic of observable things: the path of the sun and the moon in the sky, and the horizon. In a hollow planet, it would be like standing in a giant bowl, and instead of sky at the edge we would see the world sloping up. But even forgetting about all that, another thing we know for sure is that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. In the hollow earth model, with mankind living inside the shell, the sub would have to be at the center of the earth, and nobody would ever see it set. The moon would have to orbit the sun, and there would be no lunar phases.

So I'm not the only one. Weird that it only started popping up once he left BS.

Oh yeah my favorite science channel

[@Talenel]

You should check out Isaac Arthur's channel. There's a lot of crossover between the topics they discuss. Isaac has a video that covers how it would be possible to build an artificial shellworld, like what Edmund Halle thought the Earth was. He has an entire playlist on building megastructures like Dyson spheres, shellworlds, and rungworlds.

@@Talenel awesome thank you I'll check it out 😎👍

Love the new channel

This reminds me of my question I posed in the community chat a month or so ago about whether a planet could have life inhabit it internally without needing an external source of heat

[@krishenry3048]

Hey Kyle, I'm just curious. Are you going to do a "footnotes" like thing so you can answer our comments like you used to.

[@dominicgilmore3844]

This is Kyle's super villain channel

I wrote into my sci-fi universe a Dyson sphere that had several "micro suns" orbiting it, they were encased Neutron Stars that complimented that sphere's weaknesses. The thing is, I thought the Dyson sphere was original to me. I imagined it as a kid then a teen in the 80s and what the star empire would have to do to make it stable.

this episode's format was the closest I've seen to the old Bill Nye shows Kyle has done. I love it.

2:12 At least not yet. I know you're working on that. 😉😉

i pulled out my calculator when the equations came on because I was waiting for a pop quiz

[@auryc7]

Love the video. The one bit I do quibble about is the idea that people inside the hollow world would be weightless. Distance is a big factor in gravity, so assuming that the gravitational pull of the opposite side of the sphere would cancel out the gravity of the part you are standing on is incorrect, I think.
