Space is Terrifying

[@Cresendex]

Okay, multiple mistakes in the video I want to address (reply if you spot any more) First 3:50 is not a map to show the sizes of the planets. Second, I said in the video you can "pass right through gas giants" but this is also wrong, they have cores. Third, a lot of people commented that both Voyagers have already left the Solar System, this depends on what your definition of "leaving the solar system" is. If you define it as reaching interstellar space, then it has left, if you define it as leaving the Oort Cloud that surrounds our Solar System, then the video is accurate. This NASA link should clear some of that up :science.nasa.gov/resource/oort-cloud-and-scale-of-the-solar-system-infographic/ Fourth: I mentioned that if you fell into a black hole you would see the end of the Universe, this is assuming you fell into one that would survive until the end of the Universe, which is debated so take that statement with a grain of salt. Edit: Fifth: Evidence came out a few months ago that the Super Saturn planet I talked about in the video (j1407b) doesn't actually exist, or at least, isn't that size. This fact wasn't known to me while making the video because plenty of others talked about it, and there's a great video by KyPlanet talking about why so many people thought it was real. (Thanks TheRealQuartz for pointing that out) This video was made early into my channels lifespan and by this point I didn't check my work as thouroughly, and my research was a bit off at times. My newer videos are a lot better researched and checked for any mistakes. Have a great day :D

[@gasolined]

not sure if this is actually the truth, but J1407b's rings aren't real, they're a myth! it's just (i think) the most likely answer to how a brown dwarf was caught passing along it's star. a simple youtube or google search can tell you more :)

[@superbrian7997]

5:30 The Earth 🌍 is neither tiny or fragile. Texas alone from north to south, is about 801 miles (1,289 kilometers) long. From east to west, Texas is about 773 miles (1,244 kilometers) wide. Hiroshima, Japan 🇯🇵 has totally recovered and rebuilt itself from getting hit by an atomic bomb almost 80 years ago now. That’s largely due to the nuke blast being an Air Burst as opposed to a ground burst, which would’ve infected the earth with deadly radiation particles. And Homo sapiens could detonate every nuclear bomb in their collective arsenal and it wouldn’t even come close to destroying Mount Everest!

[@TheRealQuartz]

The "planet" j1407b seems to not be a plant as its transit orbit has not been made since its one and only transit, it is possibly a brown dwarf with a circumstellar disc which caused the dips in light that was seen as rings of a planet, theres a video by Kyplanet that goes in depth about the myth, love the video either way.

Let me give you hope. If multiversal theory is true, then it's simply a matter of time. At our current rate of technological advancement, we need only survive. Leave this planet before that is no longer possible- or before we render the earth devoid of the resources to do so before going extinct, and damning any future intelligent earthlife. If we can bide our time, and keep researching, learning and innovating, we can confirm multiversal theory. If it is false, we can still keep advancing, and die with our universe, confident that we mastered our laws of nature- and if it's true, we need only learn how to access & navigate the multiverse. If we can escape our universe before it can no longer support life, or even matter? We become an infinite species. We have eternity to pursue any goals we want, free from our biological imperative, to not go extinct. We could effectively travel to parallel universes, to learn as much as there is to know about a thing, and then move on. ..the only problem is, we need to keep the bastards, liars and idiots out of power, for good.

We are basically seeing their ghosts, ghosts from stars and planets that don't exist anymore.

[@pianoman7753]

Part 2: the rate of universal expansion is increasing, meaning that everything in our sphere of observation is all we'll ever get, and even that will be reduced, over time. It will eventually become impossible to ever reach or even detect anything whatsoever beyond the closest stars today. One day, the universe really will be just our own galaxy. Afterwards, our local group.. Soon after that, the entirety of what humans can ever perceive will be contained within only our own solar system, which would be long gone by then, I think. Wherever humans are by then, I hope they can figure out how to eke out existence beyond this place. Existence is good. I like existing. Not existing would probably be less preferable.

In theory, it is possible to build a time machine for traveling to the future but we still don't know if physics allows for going back in time. In practice it would probably be easiest to just use a black hole for time dilation because you need a ridiculous amount of mass or energy to curve space-time dramatically. For supermassive black holes rotating very fast especially, you can have very dramatic time dilation without passing the event horizon. The tidal forces of massive enough black holes won't tear you apart at the event horizon and rotation makes the radius of the event horizon smaller, so you you can get closer. Astrophysicists can actually measure a black holes rotation and a typical black hole spins at 90% the speed of light. In theory black holes also have charge, due to the conservation of charge, and could generate it's own repulsive electric field. This could make time dilation even more dramatic and it would theoretically allow for stable orbits past the event horizon. The idea of entire planets and civilizations living inside a black hole isn't as ridiculous as you would think.@@spingleboygle

[@karachter]

i think something that should've been mentioned is the bootes void, it's a massive area devoid of galaxies that is large enough that, if you were in the middle of it, the only bit of light possible would be some non-galactic stars which are highly improbable, there would be so little light that it's negligable to human vision, you would see absolutely nothing, not even yourself unless you have a light, and if you did, if you pointed it away from yourself, you would see nothing from it and be plunged into darkness once again, it fucking horrifies me and i love it

​@@87dramaramait's more scary to me that the "edge" of the universe (if there is one) is absolutely inaccessible to us. Not just to travel to but also to observe in any way due to the expansion of the universe at that distance from us outpacing the speed of light. So the actual size of the universe could be just a little larger than the observable universe, or the observable universe may be an extremely tiny pocket in a universe which is trillions of times larger than what we can see. Also, space appears to be almost perfectly "flat", but so does the earth from your POV when you're standing on it. So space may actually be curved if the actual universe is sufficiently larger than the observable universe.

I think something to be mentioned about space is the fact that there's this thing called "light pollution" that decreases the visibility in the sky due to the haze of city lights. If we went back just around 100-300 years ago and looked up at the sky at night you'd be able to see the whole milky way stretched out and visible. Shooting stars, cosmic dust, all of it. This is so surprising to people, that back in '94 there was a blackout in Los Angeles, which caused people to call observatories and were freaking out, asking what was going on with the stars and what that glowing cloud was. (They were seeing the milky way) Light pollution is so easy to fix and I wish more people talked about it because if they did we probably could have fixed it by now. I think environmentally it should be top priority because it would incentivize MILLIONS into learning about science/the planet if they could look up and see the milky way EVERY NIGHT no matter where they lived. In fact its actually kinda DANGEROUS to humanity to not fix light pollution because its slowly limiting our view of things like asteroids. Id love to see you make a video on this topic considering there's very few people who talk about it in the science community!

It might just be me and my imagination as a kid, but I always found information on the planets very cool and intriguing. There's certainly a level of terror when you look at the planets as destructive spheres in the void, but those incomprehensible traits are what made them interesting to me and that intrigue overtakes the fear for me. In regards to a possible "answer" to the Fermi Paradox, part of the problem with communicating with aliens is communication in and of itself. Say we did get a signal of some sort. How would we even determine we got a signal? Is the method we're using even the right one for detecting alien signals? Would they even use a language to start with? There's technically plenty other intelligent species on this planet, yet the only ones we seem to fully understand is our own. If we can't even communicate with something like an octopus, a close neighbor, can we expect to understand an alien unfathomably further from us?

[@InquisitorXarius]

Excellent point on the invalidity of the Fermi Paradox.

[@vali.s5109]

And there's another thing, when we're looking at planets and systems light years away, we don't see the actual present of things... we might see the early stages of a planet or civilization, through a lens we cannot really be sure for certain that planet has life or not. We might see the past and civilizations are probably at our level or higher, we're either not detectable to them as they are to us or they simply chose to ignore our existence entirely... or in the same time we might as well be part of a cycle where at each couple billions of years somewhere, in some galaxy, in the part of this infinite void, a civilization meets the lucky circumstances of actually developing only to PROBABLY reach a level where they determine they are either alone or incapable of reaching someone else due to the stupidly large distances.

[@orzorzelski1142]

The thing is, the laws of physics are universal. We might not know everything about them, but we know something. That's why we have radios. It's actually quite reasonable that some other intelligent species on another planet also figured this out. But here lies another problem: the very same laws of physics. Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which on a cosmological scale is quite slow. We've been broadcasting for about 200 years. Our very first radio transmissions only need about 99800 more years to get to the other side of the milky way...

Black holes have always put me on edge. Everything in space is so fragile when put up against the forces of "nature", if space can even be considered nature. The fact that millions of years of history that Earth has accumulated can suddenly be destroyed without a trace really doesn't sit well with me. When you think about it, there is no way at all that we are the only living beings in the entire universe. There are definitely billions of civilisations that are too far for us to ever see. Too far of a distance for us to even comprehend. Entire planets with millions of years of history could be thinking the exact same thing we are right now. Such planets could also be in the process of being wiped out as we speak, whether it be by a black hole, asteroids, or any other unforgiving force and we'd never know. What even in the universe? It is seemingly just a space for things to be held in, but what actually IS it? If it supposedly has an ending, then what's beyond that end?

[@Khajarbghar]

I think the most terrifying thing in space is the void, the vacuum. Imagine being an astronaut in space, getting stuck in the seemingly endless void, slowly dying either out of suffocation or hunger. Maybe even worse, you're immortal. You can be stuck in the middle of the largest vacuum in space, millions of lightyears away from anything, just floating and moving, slowly. Sure, being in a very hostile planet is bad, but if you're left to only your thoughts in a void with nothing to do but think, is it better?

I never thought about space being terrifying until I had my first dream about space travel. I've only had two of them, but both were terrifying. In each one, I was not very far from Earth, in a craft and looking back at the planet through a window. Both times, that view filled me with a kind of terror I've never experienced in my actual life. My thought was, "That's where I am supposed to be. How am I ever going to get back there?" It was the realization that I had done something I shouldn't have done, and it was possibly going to cost me my life. I'm sure it's similar to the feeling a person has while cave diving and realizing that something has gone terribly wrong.

One thing about space I find terrifying is that if the universe really is infinite, that means that pretty much any life form you can imagine could exist somewhere out there.

The vast space is the main reason I'm not afraid of large planets as we are far away from them even in our own solar system and their movements affect us very little. What does scare me is the Sun and how unpredictable it can behave, despite our knowledge of it. Also the fact that we've entered Mars, Venus and the moon Titan and seen the alien landscapes of all of them. Titan will become like Earth when the Sun expands. A small Earth, but stil. What REALLY scares me is our ignorance regarding meteorites and comets. We know hundreds of them, but hundreds of them also enter our planet without us even knowing it was gonna happen. Also the fact that we've only recently discovered Neptune isn't actually blue at all. Like, it isn't anywhere close to blue. It's bright white. We've thought it is blue for century and only now know it isn't. We have all these high tech telescopes and space probes but really we're just taking our first step into seeing things as they are now. The 70s was called the golden age of space exploration but nah.

And nothing

[@d-bag1759]

No kidding. Of all the things we have to be afraid of on our own planet we have it so good that people seriously have time to be scared of space? There’s nothing you can do about it so don’t worry yourself and worry about all the problems we have here. I’d never heard of people so afraid of space that they sound like they need a Xanax.

"I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night." I have trouble understanding the fear of space and planets, so I find this video fascinating. I find what's out there to be beautiful and exhilarating and I would love to see it with my own eyes. That said you've done a really good job communicating how you feel and why you find space so terrifying. Really good video!
