The Oldest Light In The Universe Reveals The Secrets Of Its Birth

Everything we see, is in the past. Using powerful machines such as the Hubble Space Telescope, and the James Webb Space Telescope, scientists were able to see so far back into the past of the Universe, they found clues to the birth of the first stars, and all of existence itself.

Nice video. The graphics & visuals were top notch, as was your presentation. Thank you!

You are totally correct, also nice to have a human and not a bot reading some badly translated narration.

Thank you! I do hope I can grow the channel more, it's hard to stand out in a sea of AI generated, blatant click bait.

[@dustinlange9759]

It's always bothered me that the newest stars are called "population one." It would make more sense to flip it and call the oldest stars that, since they came first. Are we going to call the future stars "population zero?" Just me being nitpicky I guess. 😂

[@bluedotdweller]

Yeah, it seems silly but at the time this naming system was conceived it made a bit more sense. In the 1940's, German astronomer Walter Baade studied stars in the Andromeda galaxy and found that more yellow stars are found in the halo and the central bulge of a galaxy, and bluer stars more in the spiraling arms, and so he classified them in Population I and II. Later, scientists discovered why these populations of stars are different based on their chemical composition, and in 1978, the theoretical, metal free Population III stars were added, but the naming system was not changed.

[@dustinlange9759]

Just found this channel, nice topics that are very well explained. Subbed. One small point though; not all (natural occuring) elements are formed in stellar fusion(or supernova), many elements only form through decay from those elements.

[@Velo757]

Nice work!!! New sub!!

[@dex1lsp]

1,000th viewer! lol Anyway, the way you convey everything is both really informative and incredibly fascinating. It all unfolds like an epic story, and it's all real! The universe is absolutely astounding. 🤯

[@dmor6696]

Great video. Just found your channel and i love it! May i ask this question: If entropy is a given for most theories, how come we see such "organized" structures. From life all the way to the massive objects like superclusters and those universal strings of galaxies? Is entropy specific or does it "work" in any size of the objects of the universe? And why it looks like the opposite is happening? Is it because the universe is cooling down eventually to 0 kelvin?

[@johngrundowski3632]

Thanks ,,,great program.Quite artfully done.Wonderfull update to star formation🌌✨️

[@nateabels5151]

[@thekingofmojacar5333]

I didn´t know your channel, nice to meet you, great video and explanations! Now is a good time to think (rethink) about the early days of our cyclical, constantly self-renewing universe. The big bang idea or theory has now faded somewhat into the background after the latest images by the JWST (i.e. Flamingo Deep View, extremely red-shift ancient galaxies - CEERS, GLASS, JADE, etc.), so we can assume these days a very creative phase in cosmology with many mindblowing new theories and ideas...

[@mikewood9284]

Another great video thank you

I would have wanted her to be my teacher. A great communicator.

[@RomoRooster]

What's fascinating to me is from the perspective of the photon that journey happened instantly, if you were riding on that photon you would witness the entire evolution of the universe instantly as you zoomed across the universe. At least until you collided with the mirror of the telescope. Lol

The oldest light in the universe will never reach Earth.

[@Maykil107]

its birth is awesome

[@apatheism]

See what you can do when you put your mind to something other than catching Rocky and Bullwinkle!

[@popescuadrian8833]

I think we know very little about the universe, eg: microwave background is not 3d map and there are hundreds of billions of microwave sources, if the light of a galaxy has traveled 13 billion years, this means that it is 13 billion years away from us 13 billion years ago years when he had time to reach such a distance?

[@antaryamitripathy9798]

In our science the law of entropy commands that all things must come to a standstill in a distant future and that spoils the game of life.Perhaps there may be some reassuring theory that is yet to be found,in science.

[@colinellicott9737]

Great vid thx. Li is mare massive than He so why is it produced after H in the big bang?

[@LastKingLKArthur]

This channel is just as cool as JMG, Cool Worlds and etc. And you know what? All of the physics/space greatest channels don’t ever get suggested when looking up these specific topics or space in general. Instead we get fake AI created videos en masse where Michio Kako is on the thumbnail while crying and saying “I’m sorry” “we lied” and just rambling about untrue things on and on and on. Thanks KZbin.

[@LastKingLKArthur]

This video was wonderful! Thank you, even if I heard all of this a million times already from different people, every person speaks about these points in a different passionate way which makes it exciting to hear every single time. I’m subscribing!

[@kevinlawson8124]

Do light ever stop traveling?

[@DanielJStromme]

Then again, have we even seen the oldest light yet?! When things are considered in "BILLION-year terms," nothing is absolutely positively.

Или Вы пример, таких опытов может привести (опыт Майкельсона 1882/2024 г в этом плане выполнен всего на 50%). Почему легче современным физикам написать 1000 теории как ОТО Эйнштейна, чем проделать один прямой опыт за два столетия? В качестве учебного пособия такие ГИБРИД приборы, современная промышленность оптоволоконных гироскопов может выпускать…. - Мы можем пролить свет на тёмную энергию Вселенной, на размеры Вселенной и так далее

[@naciremasti]

If earth were as far away as Neptune, would a light year still be the same distance traveled? A lightyear isn't universal is it?

[@bluedotdweller]

Are you maybe thinking of an astronomical Unit (AU, or the average distance between the Earth and the Sun)? The speed of light is constant in a vacuum, and since space between stars is as good as empty, light can travel freely so a light year is always going to be the same distance. But if Earth was in Neptune's place, one AU would be different.

[@naciremasti]

@@bluedotdweller if we meet aliens from a planet that's as far from its sun as say Jupiter are they going to be able to comprehend what we're saying when we mention distances in light years based off earths orbit is what I meant.

[@jakejada1632]

@@naciremasti No probably not as it's unlikely an alien races home planet would have the same 'year' as earth but they would be able to comprehend speed of light over x time span as a measure of distance

Proof of an intelligent universe. But what was here before the Big Bang?

[@bluedotdweller]

That's a really good question, but how could we possibly try to find something outside of the Universe, if there is such a thing. As it is, the Universe is everything in existence, at least to our knowledge. There could be more for sure, but we haven't observed any evidence pointing in that direction, so far.

Thinking we're the only life in this space bowl we call the universe is naive. My only hope is that we either A) don't discover this any time soon or B) said newly discovered life form are light years ahead in development than us. Because..... what are our true intentions if we somehow got lucky and found what we're looking for? We find it difficult enough already just coexisting w our very own here on Earth today. Are we that naive to think we'll act any better when it comes to life abroad? We better hope they show us far more empathy than we would them. Otherwise, GAME OVER
