What lies beneath the night sky? As your felt straying away from what is known, a certain consternation is felt. Space and its impending terror is a statement from the universe to us, that we are nothing.

This isnt "the fear of space or astrophobia" or "the fear of planets" this is cosmophobia, an intense fear of space that stems from the unknown void and time that exists ever so infinitely between our minds and in front of our eyes. This video essay covers this topic in depth and provides a different perspective, to the undying curiosity of "what is our universe"

I once knew a black dwarf. Now, before you get upset, let me explain. His name was Marcus and we were classmates. When we learned about the "life of a black dwarf" In our 7th grade classroom, even the teacher was absolutely red in the face trying to tip toe around the lesson. He didn't help either because every time she said "black dwarf"and he would respond with a "yeah, what's up?" 😂😅 He was one of the funniest kids in school and everyone loved him. I hope he's still making people smile to this day.

Looking up at the night sky always fills me with a very primal sense of dread. It's a very difficult feeling to describe, a mix of awe and beauty, but also a claustrophobic and suffocating sense of fear. Something that makes everything around you scary, it makes you want to retreat to some sort of shelter which makes me think that it's an evolutionary fear.

@begny Ай бұрын

I used to get that sense of "cosmic dread" whenever I'd do deep dives on the vastness of space. I recall watching videos talking about the distant future of the Universe and getting stressed out... by things that wouldn't be happening for trillions of years... As of recent, I've instead become mystified by space and the things in it. If you think about it, space is like a desert. It looks like nothing, endless nothing, but once you get past those seemingly infinite swathes of emptiness you stumble upon an oasis. Gorgeous clouds of dust that look like paintings, glowing rings of fire that surround black holes, spectacular light shows performed by stars, both in life and death. If the Universe is truly infinite, then that means there's just as many beautiful oases as there is desert. And of course, among those oases, us. A teeny tiny, little itsy-bitsy pale blue dot. What you said at 4:55 is something I used to think myself. "We're so insignificant and tiny." And sure, maybe we are. But I don't let that stress me like it used too because I've since realized that fact doesn't take away from how special this planet and the things on it are. UY Scuti is massive, black holes are nearly incomprehensible forces of nature, and sure planets like Saturn have rings and moons to show off. But none of them have us. Nothing has us. Life could exist out there, but until we know for sure, we're all there is. And that doesn't scare me because in a way, it makes us really important. Maybe the Universe knows no cruelty, but it also doesn't even know it own name. The Universe, the things in it, and all the laws that keep those things in check are Human discoveries. Yeah they'd exist without us, but they wouldn't be named, defined, or appreciated by anything. UY Scuti is the biggest star in the known Universe. None of that means anything without us. Sure this is an extremely Human-centric perspective, but what other perspective do we really have? Hell even the observable Universe, when you zoom out as far as we can with out current technologies, what do you find at the center of it? Not the Milkyway, not the Solar System, not even the Earth. You. From your perspective, you're the center of the Universe, the thing your people have done endless work to try and understand. At the center of all of it is you. And you know what, even if you wanna look at things from the figurative perspective of the Universe, things still look great for us! All of everything you know and love, you live and stride for, is confined to this single point in space and time. From the perspective of the Universe, you have everything you could ever need, nothing's ever quite out of reach for you. I find that so comforting. Again I totally understand that this is a Human-centric mindset. But it's one that allows me to appreciate the massive scale of the Universe without forgetting that we're just as special as the rest of it. It's very easy to fall into the pit of "Humanity bad, Humanity insignificant" and it's very nice to claw your way out every now and then. Space is one of my favorite things, I find it so eerily beautiful. From my perspective, it is something to be respected and inspired by, not feared. Great video! 😊 Keep it up!

2% of the OBSERVABLE UNIVERSE, is Boötes Void. The observable universe is the portion of the true universe that we are able to see, because at a certain point, the constant expansion of the universe begins to accelerate away from us relatively so fast that light is unable to get past, this point is called the Particle Horizon, a point after which light takes an 'infinitely' long time to arrive at the observer, making it impossible to see past.

The matter will just decay. It'll still be there. Something stubborn will actively refuse to die. Some crazy species will continue to exist. Time will destroy almost everything, but not erase. But the video forgot to mention something. Life is the rivel to decay. Life exists. You can leave a pie in the middle of nowhere, with nothing. The pie will someday be nothing, it won't even be a husk of its previous self. It'll be unrecognizable. Now if you leave a human in the middle of a wasteland. If the human is smart enough, they can take care of both themselves and their environment, ensuring it won't be destroyed as long as they are present. But a single human, will die. Now if you take the human analogy literary, life will never vanish, as humans will exist so long as there are at least 1 male and 1 female. And there's BILLIONS of humans. Note: I have a crippling case of optimism.

The thing i find the strangest is us, we can see, smell, hear, and feel things that aren't meant to be seen, smelled, heard, or felt. Because we are also just a part of the universe. We're made of the same things that everything else is made of, which i feel like people forget. People look up instead of down and say how they feel instead of why they feel. What bothers me the most is why anything even exists in the first place, it's so strange, why did the big bang happen? (Or whatever it was that created this) And if this has been around forever I'd be even more confused. I dont think anybody should be scared of space or existing. Nothing is random, nothing is meant to be, we're all just here and we matter as much as the ground we stand on. It's only humans that make things matter, nobody and nothing cares except for us and there's no reason to care. Everything just *is.* And it's not weird, we think it is but it isn't, it's natural. Idk I find it weird how we can actually experience stuff and find meaning in it, I wanna go back to the old me before I got into this stuff, then I wouldn't "care" so much about how things in fact didn't matter.

You're not alone in this! Its Def us that's the weird thing. We are conscious and aware for some reason, but none of us know why. We just get these senses, and experiences, even though we are technically no different than a tree or a star in the eyes of the universe. Humans add meaning because we have these experiences and awareness but in the big picture absolutely none of it matters. We are the universe having a human experience and that's all we know. Its weird to sit here as a human and realise these things. Definitely used to scare me a lot to think about it, but tbh I find great comfort in knowing that I'm essentially irrelevant in the grand scheme. I'm only relevant in an earthly sense, which is tiny. I matter to me because I make it matter. Idk why I find that comforting but I do. I'm just a speck.

for some reason, though space is the definition of infinite, i feel more comforted than scared. realizing that, in the grand scheme of things, nothing truly matters allows me to have a better perspective of life. the little things that stress me out, as well as the huge life stresses that all people undergo-none of it matters. at the end of everything, we will become nothing. and i thank the universe regardless

I love space and find it interesting. I was staring at a galaxy photo at work one day and my coworker told me he is intrigued by my interest in that because to him space was terrifying. Similar to this video, he stated it was too unknown and big for him and it made him uncomfortable to think of. It's always stuck with me because before then, I never saw this perspective or at least was uncomfortable with the vastness of time and space. Great video

The pure amount of things so so much bigger than us, to the point we're not even a dust particle, nor even a bacteria or virus. We are literally nothing in comparison to our own home. And then we remember how many smaller objects than us there are, most likely also too small for us to see. Universe is an expending mystery that starts with the smallest objects and goes for eternity and beyond. And we won't even know for sure, it could have happened before. And might happen again. But the emount of time that would pass would be so huge a number wouldn;t be able to show it. It's scary, and beautiful in a way.

my question delves into one of the most profound and enduring mysteries of human existence: the potential existence of extraterrestrial life. This inquiry has captivated the minds of scientists, philosophers, and the general public alike for centuries. While we have yet to definitively answer whether we are alone in the universe, ongoing scientific exploration and advancements continue to shed light on this fascinating question. Through the study of exoplanets, astrobiology, and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI), humanity continues its quest to understand our place in the cosmos and the possibility of life beyond Earth.

Really great video, I enjoyed it and actually felt the fear of space as I always do when I begin to think about it. But one thing I did notice is that when you were explaining the distance of some of the neighboring planets or solar systems in light years, you said that it would take us that many years to reach that location. Light years is the amount of time that it takes light to travel in a year, so in all actuality it would take us a much larger amount of time for us to travel that far. Also with the fact that we will realistically never be able to reach the speed of light.

Space isn't just a black background for fancy sci-fi starships to zip across, but a near-void of such scale and innate hostility that just traversing the tiniest portion of it, without dying, would be a feat for the eons. Definitely humbling.

The Fermi question of alien civilizations, I feel, is less like the "ships passing in the night," and more like two isolated ships in the world ocean, moving about with the currents, shining their lights in the hopes that they see each other. I think it is pretty unlikely that even one of those ships manages to 1) levitate, 2) move at hypersonic velocities, 3) exponentially replicate, and 4) shine a billion-watt search light, everywhere it goes. That's what the Fermi Paradox implies about the natural evolution of alien civilizations. Anyway, it is always nice to realize that others do share similar thoughts about topics! I feel the same. 🙂

@caseyfromspace 4 күн бұрын

I actually have basically the opposite opinion, and I'm really curious if anyone else feels the same. I COMPLETELY understand thinking of space as cold and empty but for some reason I think of it as just so alive, warm, and beautiful, even if "warm" might be literally just an objectively incorrect statement. I'm absolutely obsessed with space, and have been for as long as I can remember, which might be why I feel so positively about it, maybe out of a sense of nostalgia. I think the solar system is just so beautiful. I know Jupiter would absolutely annihilate a human, but I don't really find that scary because we're not meant to be there. If there are aliens, I'm sure there's plenty out there that would think of Earth as a hellscape for whatever reason. The gas giants almost feel like huge beautiful machines, just these giant storms churning away. As for the vast distances of space, sure things are really far apart, but they're still connected. We orbit the sun, which orbits the center of the Milkyway, and everything's a part of the same universe! I'm not quite sure why or fucking how, but the universe feels oddly cozy to me. The Milkyway feels almost like a town we live in. It's big and I haven't been to most of it, but I live here so it feels like home, yah know? IDK maybe I'm just silly but I feel like the universe can be thought about in different ways. Thinking about it as a cold mostly empty void that is slowly falling to entropy, yeah, that's horrifying, but I don't think that's the only way of thinking about it. You can think about humans as biological machines biding our time until we fall to entropy, oooorrrr you can think about humans some inspiring pretty way that I'm too lazy to think of, but you know what I mean. Point is I think the universe can be thought of in a similar way. Sure some stuff is bigger in size, but we're as much of a part of it as anything else. I'm kinda losing my train of thought and don't wanna read back over this lmao but you get my point, i think space is beautiful and cozy for some reason and i love it. Not saying this to be like "THIS VIDEO IS DUMB AND WRONG!! >:(" I really enjoyed the video! I fucking love space so anything talking about it is super cool!! and because i love space, idk i wanted to offer my weird point of view. I think it can be thought of as beautiful and cozy if you think about it the right way or are just crazy like me i guess lmao

That the acceleration of our universe is actually it being pulled apart by the ejected energy that forms at event horizon. Our universe might be expelled into the ultimate void which will create other universe's. My understanding of the mechanism of it all is extremely limited.

I'm Pagan (I have been for a long time) and we associate the Sun with the God and the Moon with the Goddess. We also have prayers and ways that we "work with" (try to use energy associated with) the planets. While there are things in the Universe that seems very freaky, I think I see all of this a little differently, feeling like my reverance for the Earth I live on and the Universe that we exist in makes a great deal of sense. How could you not feel reverence for this? Yes, it seems agonizingly lonely but so long as we stay put for as long as we get to exist as a species, we do not have to experience that loneliness personally. It's easier for everybody's mental health to focus on the fact that by some "magic", our Sun and Moon work together to give us perfect gravity and perfect day/night/seasons for life to exist. The Universe is absolutely breathtakingly incredible. The fact that our Sun and Moon create the perfect conditions for life to exist is incredible. And truly all I feel from this video awe. ☀️🌚💫🌟
