It's actually amazing that newton was able to deduce the apple and moon are both falling to earth. Same goes for Einstein and his special / general theories of relativity.
They were taught philosophy, we are not. It's easy to be amazed at something that seems far away. Imagine what indigenous peoples think when contacted for the first time.
@@Fister_of_MuppetsTo this day, we still use Newton's laws and calculations of motions to send spacecrafts to precise accuracy to other planets. Newton also invented calculus to explain the orbits of planets. Waaaay ahead of his time. He is the father of modern science.
This blew my mind regarding the reason for free fall or weightlessness. Wow! Never seen things like that but makes perfectly logical sense. I really enjoy this UA-cam channel. Always learning something new
Newton was a genius to even begin comparing the free-fall of an apple to the moon's orbit. Side note: Chuck also deserves his props for taking on this job and holding his own/being able to keep up with Neil.
Talk about Newton but man, Neil is one of the most brilliant minds of our time. May he continue to amaze us with his knowledge of the universe and his wisdom.

One of my favorite historical greats is Leonardo Da Vinci and to know that Newton is as diverse as he was is awesome and makes me want to learn more about him! Always learn SO MUCH when I watch these vids!!
There are those who care about their fellow man, and would tell the trurh hnowing it would benefit everyone. For others, the truth might benefit others and that might be a threat to them.
I’ve been watching StarTalk for a long time. I’ve seen many episodes on incredible things. But this one was so well explained by Neil that you feel like you can go through the thought process of Isaac Newton. Then you realize how genius his idea was. Love the show! Love you Neil!
On his own Neil is such an amazing teacher I wish I would have had teachers like him in school I would have actually probably paid attention and done a lot better things with my life but that's neither here nor there but the fact that he also seen the opportunity to bring a comedian in to learn what some people might consider very complex science was just brilliant absolutely brilliant
Well we can't overstate a dead done that hit a bullseye on a target nobody even missed, a target nobody could even see. But Einstein and Newton were most likely the top minds to have ever existed, Einstein said he did t stand on the shoulders of Newton he stood on the shoulders of James Clark maxwell
Orbitting is like falling to Earth but you constantly missed it... :D My fav. story about Newton is that when he was the "warden of the mint", and then Newton also became a detective, hunting down counterfeiters. And he had an "arch enemy", a counterfeiter called William Chaloner. This is a brilliant story!
I love this series; I have to admit that I have been binge watching and having a great time. I love the detailed explanations, done with humor. It is so great to see such a fantastic Teacher having so much fun and laughing so much while explaining such complex things that most people never think about.
To put it in perspective: an object in a free fall at the surface of the Earth falls 5m in 1st second. The Earth curves 5m in about 8km (you can do a simple trigonometry calculation to find this out). Thus the 1st orbital speed equals those 8km per second.
THIS MAN HAS BEEN THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED IN MY LIFE FOR PAST 3 weeks lol. Ive known about dr. Tyson but ive been following his videos/debates past few weeks. He is sooooo humble, enthusiastic, brilliant, caring, loving and cool. Just watching star talk I HAVE LEARNED SOOOO MUCH and i relish it But i still dont understand many things he explains lol 😂

I concur, you guys make a great team, I love that you can SEE the loving respect you two have for one another and it's beautiful and sweet and definitely adds to the videos. You guys are hilarious and smart and I love all your videos and hope there's always more💞💞💞
Inertia is my favourite Newton's law (Newton's first law of motion), and now that Chuck is describing both Newton's first and third law in the context of sci-fi movies, I am complete
@TheRenaissanceman65 inertia is an object's tendency to resist change in motion, hence Newton's first law: an object will continue in a state of uniform motion unless acted upon by a resultant force
@TheRenaissanceman65 Newton's second law is "a force is equal to rate of change in momentum" or the equivalent F=ma This is a description of the relationship between force and inertia, but it relies on the first law: an object will remain in a uniform state of motion (i.e. resist change in motion) unless acted upon by a resultant force. This is what inertia is, it's the tendency to continue in a straight line (or remain stationary, hence 'uniform motion')
This is a show I'll have to watch again. If an object is catapulted into space, but is still effected by our planet's gravitational pull, it will return to Earth, albeit in a different location due to Earth's rotation. I need to study more astrophysics. Thanks for your show's insights.
Great team, whenever I feel like some dose of laughing, happiness and at the same time learning interesting stuff, I come to your show. Never disappoints. Bless and continue

3:58 Reminds me of most kids today. Amazing facts thrown at them and their response is just "nice" with a blank look in their face while thinking about TikTok videos. I know Chuck isn't one of them and usually has the appropriate response, but that reaction just made me laugh.
Issac Newton was an incredible thinker. The man discovered gravity by looking at an APPLE. It takes modern scientists a while to make certain discoveries with a huge amount of technology. Not discrediting them, im just saying how smart Newton was. Absolutely incredible.
Question for the next cosmic queries, even though it isn't that cosmic, if u had mount everest or another large quantity of matter above you, by a few feet, and you are standing on a scale would you weigh slightly less than you would normally?
I remember having this lesson named "bricks of the foundation" I never understood that as a kid. As an adult I understand and can say Newton was indeed one of those solid brick for the foundation of modern science.
At 4:04 Mr Tyson; you will agree with me on this I hope, you are wrong. First of all lots of respect and love for you and I want to thank you for all your intellectual work, we need desperately more people like you. I believe Sir Newton discovered the laws of motion at that moment, he Did Not Invent them, but he did in fact invented a new mathematical language to explain what he had discovered. Hopefully I’m right… lol imagine telling my son I told mr Tyson he was wrong and he agreed with me. Lol hopefully he becomes someone like you sir.
Correction: Earth has been in orbit. We merely go along for the ride until we leave the planet and create our own orbital path. Astronauts orbit because they are no longer on Earth and no longer in its atmosphere. The same as you are not traveling 70mph, your car is. You are merely along for the ride.
Love this DUO! I stick up for Neil every time bc I respect what he does✊🏽 We know this is “your show” but he ain’t have to talk to the homie like that bro, seriously. SMDH, not cool bro, not cool!
11:00 Just like when i take out aluminium foil out of the 450°F oven with ovengloves and 2 seconds later on the counter, i can touch it with bare hands. Aluminium really hates being different than its surroundings.
I agree, Neil and Chuck are a very rare but fantastic combination! I was just wondering, given the great sense of humor involved, who were responsible for the design of the "A" in Star Talk? Apart from the obvious rocket leaving the launch pad, I see something else as well which led me to believe Chuck was somehow involved!!😂
7:14 Neil, this is wrong. You don’t need to (and should not) hit escape velocity to get to the Moon. Remember, the Moon orbits the Earth, so you’re not really escaping Earth’s gravity. Flying to the Moon is a sort of an orbital maneuver, where they raise their Earth orbit to a highly elliptical one that gets them to the Moon. They deliberately stay under the escape velocity; it’s safer because it allows for ”free return trajectory” in case there is a problem.
*Cosmic Queries or an Explainer video please:* Does *Planet 9* exist in our solar system? Will we ever find it? Is Planet 9 really a planet or a mini black hole revolving around the sun?

8:08 but aren’t the astronauts going the same speed as the rocket? Relative to them they aren’t moving so how is that wrong?
Exactly. The second the acceleration stops and maintains a steady speed, the “gravity effect” immediately disappears and surely they start to “float”

The speed of the spacecraft doesn't have to be steady to make the astronauts float since they will also do that when the speed is constantly changing in an _elliptical_ orbit.
