Emily Levesque Public Lecture: The Weirdest Stars in the Universe

[@Eztoez]

This is one of the most enthralling astronomy lectures I've ever seen. Emily is a fantastic speaker. The internet needs more of her please.

[@oomphlau]

Emily Levesque is one of the most talented speakers I've ever encountered. No pauses, few word stumbles, very logical and coherent, no "likes," or "I means," or any other lame speaking devices-and she crams a lot into a little space by talking so fast, yet perfectly understandable. A pleasure to listen to.

[@theskyatnightrawunderthedome]

DUMB

[@TagmakersCoUk]

The year Emily was born I was driving through the southern region of the Kalahari desert. At around 2AM I stopped the car, got out and spent well over an hour looking up at a fantastically bright Milky Way. That stimulated an (amateur) interest in astronomy that has lasted to this day. To all parents... when you next travel in areas well away from light pollution, take some time to let your kids experience the wonders of the night sky. Perhaps this will kindle more Emily Levesques. She's a great ambassador for science - we need many more like her.

[@WildBillCox13]

Great comment and suggestion.

[@JimLamagdeleine]

I TOTALLY agree!

[@beefy1212]

Tag Makers Pet Tags; My first true view of the heavens was at around 9k feet deep in the Sierra Nevada mountains also around 2am driving on a crystal clear later winter night. After over an hour of white knuckle driving I got out to take a break. Coatless and breathing air much thinner than I am used to, I looked up and saw something I will never forget. The true majesty of the night sky. I have never seen anything so beautiful, the sheer amount of colors and varying densities of stars, nebula, galaxies. There was so much color, and objects my brain could hardly distinguish anyone object. There is a part of me that wishes I could see this every night, and a part of me that never wishes to see it again because I know if I never saw it again, I could easily say what the most beautiful thing I have ever seen in my life.

[@damaliamarsi2006]

I have seen the stars so bright and it angers me when you get anywhere near civilization and the light pollution just wipes away the most incredible view we has humans will ever see. Just sad.

[@beefy1212]

Damalia Marsi keep in mind the grass is always greener on the other side, not so many generations ago, the ability to communicate the world over in real-time, while holding a computer in your hands hundreds of times more powerful that what we used to put a man on the moon, was nothing short of magic. Not so many generations ago our ancestors, viewed a broken bone as a death sentence, clean water was unheard of, and the concept of going to a store and buying food grown the world over were was but a mere fantasy. It is always easy to find a reason to complain, it is not always easy to remember how truly blessed those of us lucky enough to live with light pollution truly are... And keep in mind there is almost 2 billion people today that live exactly as those ancestors who would see our lives as magic and fantasy, and would gladly trade you their view of the night sky to live the life you have so much disdain for.

'The moment I knew I wanted to be an astronomer' - after watching Carl Sagan's Cosmos as an 8yr old. 40yrs (and 10 different jobs) later I still havnt become one and am not likely to now, but praise the heavens for the internet so that I can watch 1000s of space science documentaries and lectures instead :)

[@Bradgilliswhammyman]

I think professional astronomy is a very hard field to actually get work in. You basically need a Ph.D to get a teaching position at a University. I like Michelle Thaller personally, she was one of the great astronomers from the 90s.

I imagined I'd last a few minutes, maybe fast forward through all the pictures, but she grabbed me and I have watched the whole thing, learned all the names, and had wonderful new insights into the astronomer's ways of doing things. I love the simplicity. Other scientists could learn something from how they name things. Like naming them in their native language with words that explain what they're seeing!

[@MrBilld75]

Flat earthers and other such low I.Q. idiots. I can pretty much guarantee it. They are the only ones I know, dumb enough to dislike this.

[@auto_ego]

I thought the content was great, but clicked "dislike" because of the camerawork and editing. For just three examples, lots of times important slides weren't shown enough, there's far too much unremarkable (non-reaction) footage of the audience, and finally, the third time she said "Betelgeuse", the editor chose not to include any footage of him appearing.

[@ZeedijkMike]

I don't get the idea of the _dislike_ button. If I don't like what I see I just stop watching instead of wasting my time.

[@burtosis]

I disliked some of the confusing points. For example Betelgeuse is roughly 900 times the diameter of the sun, but nearly a billion times the size. I can't imagine a phd would confuse 1 dimension for 3 but it makes me angry this is common among astronomers because this leads laypeople to incorrect knowledge when the terminology is lazy. A toy car 1/10th as long as a real one dosent weigh 330 lbs it weighs 3.3.

[@zombievac]

I wouldn't necessarily dislike this, as it's a great lecture - for young people or people mostly unfamiliar with astronomy. I'm no expert, I have an amateur interest in the topic... yet none of this was new information to me, and the video description advertised it as new information being studied now, which is true technically, but only "new" in the scale of decades. It's all stuff that would be covered in an Astronomy 101 course, for example. So, I almost disliked it based on my own interests, but quickly realized that would be unfair to the lecture. I think the title and description are a bit click-baitish, though.
