Multicolored Meteor Shower!

[@TheCoBBus]

Weird ! I saw a green-ish one yesterday night while working and it was beautiful

[@Kenadian2006]

Am I the only one that NEVER hears these much maligned trucks?

[@scishowspace]

+Kenadian2006 We usually stop filming when the trucks are really loud, so each episode takes a long time to film, and then we do a lot of post-production work to remove the traffic noise so you can't hear it. So that's great that you can't hear it! When the new studio is finished, the end result will be similar to how it is now, but we'll be able to film and edit MORE SciShow in the same amount of time. That's the hope. More science!

[@Azzarinne]

+SciShow Space Woo more science! :D

[@Kenadian2006]

SciShow Space Didn't realize it was that big of a problem. Guess that goes to show you guys do your jobs well!

[@Eamenic1]

+SciShow Space Must... Have... Moar... Science!!!!!!

[@ThrottleKitty]

..... trucks? o.o

[@michellesfrugallivin]

I saw a green meteor a couple weeks ago. Very cool. Thanks for the info on the meteor shower. Maybe I will be able to see some more colors.

[@Kevinb1821]

I just saw the most beautiful meteor of my life! It was bright blue that had a bright orange sparkly tail. It only lasted a quick second but wow was it bright and vivid. I’ve never seen one that bright and big!

[@OblivionFalls]

Interesting! I saw a golden meteor streak through the sky last night when I was walking along the beach. It was a decent one too, the apparent size was roughly half that of the nail on my pinkie finger when held at arms length. It broke into a number of pretty golden shards that burned out as they approached the horizon. It all happened in the span of about two seconds but it was still awesome. Good to hear that I'll be seeing more soon!

[@electropigeon5472]

+OblivionFall I'm still trying to figure out if your telling the truth or if you were walking along the beach when you really needed to take a piss.

[@deathpony698]

+OblivionFall golden shower? that sounds expensive

[@bobhope4288]

+deathpony698 $20

[@deathpony698]

Bob Hope $5 sucky sucky?

[@bobhope4288]

+deathpony698 I've often found, the lower the price, the higher the experience. Ha

[@raythegardener]

Everything you need for a nice hot bath? Ceres has Mr. Bubble? Awesome!

[@MrMotchel]

Yes! Finally a vid with Hank hosting! I'm getting a bit weary of so many SciShowSpace with Caitlin.

[@ljmastertroll]

Who is going to do the Ceres salty ice bath challenge?

[@AwesomeWoodThings]

+ljmasternoob I nominate you!

[@ljmastertroll]

Awesome Wood Things I'll wait for the Mercury bath challenge.

[@ShivaramakrishnaReddy]

+ljmasternoob i nominate you for the sun plasma bath challenge

[@ljmastertroll]

Shivaramakrishna Reddy I'm going to need some sunblock (SPF 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000)

[@sd4dfg2]

If you go to the Heavens-Above website you can enter your location and select a day and time and generate a skychart showing where Gemini (and Jupiter) will be in the sky. If you've never used a skychart before, you'll see the W and E appear flipped in the image - you're not supposed to look down on it like a normal map, you hold it above your head and then the N/S/W/E line up.

[@BrandEver117]

So was that faint sound in the background trucks? I thought maybe I was going insane lol

[@scishowspace]

+Brandon S You're not insane! You have great hearing is all.

[@maxximumb]

+SciShow Space I thought the noise was coming from Michael Aranda's office. The sound of frustration at his subscriber counter. LOL

[@NolanAlighieri]

+SciShow Space Glad I'm not the only one. I thought I heard an ice cream truck outside and was super hyped for some ice cream...

[@Groaker]

+Brandon S So what you're saying is I DON'T need go to my Audiologist in the morning?

[@GraveUypo]

+Brandon S i could never hear that over the sound of my own background trucks.

[@GoldenPidgeon]

haha throughout that whole episode i could hear a repetitive faint beep! Paused it cos thought it was outside the house, but it stopped when i did. The end def explained it!

[@ShariaTwain]

+SciShow Space Sound proof huh? I've always wondered what it's like to hear SciShow Space in a vacuum

[@R4th0le]

Maybe the spots on Ceres are just all the Tenno farming on Draco... :P

[@zach5192]

+CaptainBAWWWW Yep.

[@the_real_foamidable]

... but in a soundproof studio we can't hear you anymore :-(

[@ragnkja]

+foamidable Directional microphones ;)

[@Amiggydala]

The first thing that came to mind from the thumbnail was "Oh wow Din, Nayru, and Farore are coming to visit!"

[@colinmaclaughlanweir9670]

I have seen a few over the years mostly when I was camping in the bush but the last time was on my drive home from work at 11-00 and it was green

[@Plystire]

I once saw a huge meteor fly overhead, and as it flew through the sky it was trailed by a vibrant color. As it flew, it would burst into a bright spot, and the tail's color would change. I think I recall it bursting and changing colors 3-4 times. It was quite spectacular :)

[@swordmaster2k1]

Who the hell downvotes these videos? Does Hank Green really have enemies that dedicated or something? Creationists?

[@dylanica3387]

With over one thousand people liking a video a few will invariably accidentally dislike it.

[@ishankmahale5393]

+swordmaster2k1 Flat-earthers. They think space is fake.

[@ariane3222]

"local time" tells me a LOT about when the meteor shower actually happens. I live in GMT +1 :'D

[@Azzarinne]

+Ariane [Freakydella] It'll be 2am-ish wherever you are, because they're radiating out from a point that appears to be within Gemini, which tends to be highest around 2am within any given timezone (in the Northern Hemisphere, I assume).

[@ariane3222]

Azzarinne now THAT is interesting.. o.O thanks for the explanation!

[@lyuboslavkrastev6812]

The pink stars are falling in lines!

[@Antenox]

But the trucks give your show _character_

[@KiddsockTV]

Colors! That so ROCKS!

[@MrKnowledgeZ]

Great video, but I wish the title included everything that was covered. I had to double check I was on the right video when I was hearing about Ceres when I expected to be hearing about meteor showers.

[@Wheedlinglemur]

Alright, no more truck probs for Hank!

[@KainusGulch]

Sci Show, Do we know why meteors even come by our planet? Would they normally be like a crazy elliptical orbiting string of debris that we just pass through or are they more like comets?

[@stevenkuznicki4949]

I wouldn't be so paranoid if everyone would just stop talking about me behind my back !!!!

[@WarrenGarabrandt]

I have hearing damage, so I have a difficult time noticing subtle sounds. I guess that's why I never noticed the sound of any trucks.

[@Nichoalsziv]

sublimated the water, not vaporised!

[@CraftSized]

Umm, am i the only one that hears those beeps in the background of these videos?

[@typemoon4894]

I like the truck noises

[@elkboy888]

Speaking of bright spots, I've been hoping SciShow would tackle the light show over California on 11/7/2015. Quite a few recordings of it, but I haven't seen an explanation about it yet (hence why I'm turning to Scishow). Any chance you folks could touch on it? If in doubt, just search 'UFO' with the date and you'll find quite a few recordings. Thanks!

[@carbon5475]

SO it would be great for my athlete's foot.

[@RenbeOfficial]

Anybody who's read Day of the Triffids will be freaking out if they start seeing green meteors.

[@froginchair]

I SAW RED AND IT LOOKS SO LARGE, And the other one is a smaller red

[@GabeVarns]

Are you guys based in Missoula? IK you're in MT and though maybe you worked at U of M.

[@BrandonSchleifer]

Awe. I was really hoping for alien cities.

[@ville307]

Can someone point out a obvious moment when you can hear the trucks? I can't hear anything.

[@deanbullock7782]

Doesn't magnesium burn white? Or is it because of the atmosphere refracting the white light to blue-green?

[@101roccat101]

i know this aint gona get answered...but ill try my luck anyways, what is a ''Sound Prove Studio"?

[@TheHandOfJam]

This will be USA standard time, Will it be visible from WA Australia and if so what time?

[@ShivaramakrishnaReddy]

does the 2AM local time mean 2am for every one? and if so on which day? it would be nice to have a world map with time for this so that every can view it

[@Eamenic1]

Damn! No alien beacon for me.

[@idklol9899]

Would you be able to see it from Australia?

[@FlashJockey1]

make an episode to explain how sound proof sudios work on the main channel :D

[@QuestionableKenz]

when will the gesimites reach their peak

[@PhilthyFork]

No more truck noises!

[@UthoRiley]

You're not in a sound proof studio already? cause i never heard any trucks rolling by during an episode.. However a more logical explanation would be that you guys stop recording or re-record the segments you were working on if there would be noise pollution. If this is the case, than indeed a sound proof studio would decrease production time i guess.

[@BrandEver117]

+Utho Riley I watch with headphones. I could hear a very faint beeping in the background...like the sound they make when they back up.

[@paudel965]

What time it can be seen from australia?????

[@johnnyj540]

Trucks, what trucks?

[@ChalkyGBG]

oh no, earth's got meteroids again...

[@maribakumon]

Have there been any satellites that have viewed meteor showers, or at least meteoroids burning, in other planets' atmospheres?

[@kewqie]

+William lukander wasn't that the Shoemaker-Levy 9 comet?

[@kewqie]

+William lukander That's interesting, didn't know about others. To the Googlemobile!

[@AndrewVanLare]

does "local time mean" Greenwich Time or Montana time?

[@RCOATES89]

you said dust (metoroids) what is the size of this dust?

[@rkpetry]

1. Are "the trucks" the cause of your sharp time-editing; I'd thought it was intentional _vitesse_... 2. SIDEBAR NOTE: The color purity of extremely-faster-moving white-head comets proves the speed of light is constant over the color spectrum; something Newton could have recognized with his color-sharp reflector telescope (an improvement over Galileo's glass lens refractor)... (And he'd have thereby, preempted Einstein, with a better estimate of time+length distortion).

[@Rybread52]

I've seen a green meteor before

[@jojojorisjhjosef]

"local time" thanks hank.

[@scishowspace]

+jojojorisjhjosef That's right. Local time, wherever you are.

[@joeythegreat4900]

+SciShow Space ¿Qué?

[@kparekh1470]

+SciShow Space does that include the southern hemisphere?

[@kusthah9968]

pero muchos de nosotros sí... tiempo local de dónde? :P

[@cookiemonster123400]

he said 2am local time, what does that mean..?

[@jayj3751]

SCIENCE WORDS! i have no idea what u were saying half the time.

[@photosinensis]

Geminids: I need a 6m radio antenna for meteor scatter.

[@SorenHoole]

beep...beep...beep... I can hear it and I think i'm hearing things but i'm pretty sure i'm not..

[@reececrump8483]

im trying to see it right now. i found the star. its to bright where i am ,shame.

[@donnakasper2109]

Ay, this was posted on my birthday! also, I'm american

[@Mattteus]

I need to soak my feet on Ceres

[@reynal_omnicide9217]

local time...

[@lightsidemaster]

Won't even try. Fucking light pollution is horrible in Germany. If I had a private jet I'd hurry to that extremely dark spot in the middle of north-western Sweden, close to the border of Norway.

[@adamwatland954]

Magnesium will burn blue, not green

[@iCannoNz98]

Hank💚💛💜

[@cheesybread8426]

NOO I HAVE SCHOOL!!!

[@sydneydeasum7268]

hello who is the other girl i love u hank

[@neutralissy]

SAW 2 an hour ago

[@eStalker42]

Only I hear those nasty squeak background noises in almost all scishow video?

[@eStalker42]

+estalker exp oh, just read some comments, seems I'm not alone.. but they are disturbing and make me nervous.. (

[@Nikolaos34]

avoid the click bait please

[@Pianothegamer]

Damnit, I watched this video on the 15th of December. Crap

[@BLooDCoMPleX]

God damn it the intro is loud as hell.

[@Boborbot]

Seriously Hank, you're a professional KZbinr as one gets, you should know this shit - if you have annotations for other videos mid-video, have them to open another tab. This shit is elementary. Oh, and great video as usual.

[@cosmicmutant33]

[@MoneyShifted]

Fuck theories I want facts.

[@zedz.2755]

The everyday use of the word theory is very different its scientific use. oregonstate.edu/instruction/bb317/scientifictheories.html

FIRST👍🏻

[@mikeyhawman5855]

Last to get laid😞

[@AngusCS]

+Mikey Hawman Keep telling your self that.
