StarTalk Podcast: Cosmic Queries - The Random Edition, with Neil deGrasse Tyson

[@francisjohnson665]

Love , love , love these guy's. I am 73 and am learning so much from this show. Never too old to learn. 👍👍👍

[@TerryTeachesTrucking]

As a teacher I love the way he teaches

[@GEEK-3]

I hope you have the drive to still gain knowledge at 73, you’re an icon honestly

[@Just_Plain_Steve]

Never stop learning! I'm 42 and feel the same.

[@SMPKarma]

@@TerryTeachesTrucking I'm a chemist by education and teach chem in high school, and I love researching astrophysics and quantum physics, which includes watching talks like this. Students are often most amazed by the very big (universe, how stuff on the level of stars works) and by the very small (the peculiarities of the quantum world), so I love answering such questions even if its not that pertinent to the subject at hand. I think one of the most important lessons we as teachers can give is to plant a seed of curiosity in the person. You can't teach every subject and little detail to anyone, much less to someone who deems it useless and boring. My real education started somewhere during university years when I realized that I want to know everything there is to know about the real world, and started spending hours upon hours reading scientific texts. And I still do it - there is so much to learn, and learning feels great! That's the main thing I want to show my students. Knowing stuff feels great, as opposed to be willingly ignorant and proud of it.

[@Dontbustthecrust]

Yes. Agreed my friend.

Chuck was so fortuitous knowing that everyones here for the cosmic queries with Neil and most importantly, Chuck.

[@rolandschoenke1840]

i learn something new every single episode

[@kpw84u2]

Your show has come a long way from these days four years ago. It has tackled a broad range of topics and even delved into current social issue topics. While stirring the drink with a good dose of humor and interesting perspectives. And Ive seen a maturation and growing of both of you as hosts and interviewers in the podcast world. Even the editing and ambience has improved. Bravo❣️

[@muthuk]

I just can't believe he is answering these questions without knowing them in advance...I mean I believe him when he says...I am speaking more from amazement of the nimbleness & quality of his responses 👌

[@kandukuri007]

Not sure if anyone have observed, they well manage the ads to appear only when they say "let's take a break" so the content doesn't get distracted by crazy KZbin ads! By the way love their content always 😍

23:47 okay who else agrees that was actually the best bill bye impression because i remember hearing bill say that and it’s hilarious how right Neil is.

Dude same lol

[@MikeOSheaGodsDrummer]

Niel van Steenderen me too. Looked it up. Helium help maintain heat guided rockets for DoD and Nasa. Used in surveillance balloons and also cooling/ cryogenics

[@Danymok]

Helium: Atomic number 2. Usually has 1-3 neutrons. Is the second lightest element. Very abundant throughout observable universe.

[@AliAsghar-cv3og]

It is formed in the hearts of stars, hydrogen in the core is fused into helium releasing energy and powering the star.

22:50 NASA is the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. They do a lot of research on aeronautics as well as space stuff, often in conjunction with the FAA. Current aeronautics research include the next generation of air-traffic control, improving wing designs, improving jet engine designs, various ways to improve aircraft safety systems, etc. In the past, they helped in the development of TCAS, Dopler radar use for micro-burst detection and other hazardous weather events, among many others.

[@antoniologan7648]

[@x_capt_x9584]

Also....is there a direct correlation between rotation of a star and the revolution of its surrounding planets?

[@animistchannel2983]

Only in direction. No matter how fast or slow the star rotates, the planets have to orbit at a speed linked to their distance from the star. This is part of the reason that, as the star system forms, the planets may shift orbits and sling each other around some. A planet moving too fast for its orbit will move outward, and one moving too slow for its orbit will migrate inward. As they cross paths and switch places, they may slow down or speed up each other even more with "slingshot" effects, then restart the process over. Big planets may absorb little ones, or else throw them out into deep space altogether by adding them so much extra speed. As a result, some astronomers have calculated that there may be more rocky planets wandering alone through intersteller space than there are remaining in orbit around stars. Before it settled into the stabilized system we see today, a big gas giant like Jupiter, as it wandered in and out from these interactions, could have slung a dozen earth-sized planets off into the darkness. Some of those "rogue" planets could still have enough heat and tectonic activity being generated by their own core to have liquid water below the surface, and so life could even evolve there, away from any star.
