Loved this vid Tim ! A combination of education and good story telling, so well done Tim ! I eagerly look forward to the Pluto vid because it's a very "polarising" ( pun intended ! lol ) topic of debate ! Thanks Tim ! Wes, Liverpool, UK.
"In 1845, astronomers Urbain Le Verrier in Paris and John Couch Adams in Cambridge separately began calculations to determine the nature and position of such a planet. Le Verrier's success also led to a tense international dispute over priority, because shortly after the discovery George Airy, at the time British Astronomer Royal, announced that Adams had also predicted the discovery of the planet." wiki. Adams predicted it first but Airy failed to look for it when Adams asked him to.
Uranus or Sweta (Greenish White planet) Vishesheena hi Vaarshneya Chitraam Pidayate Grahah….[10-Udyog.143] Swetograhastatha Chitraam Samitikryamya Tishthati….[12-Bheeshma.3] Sage Vyasa states that some greenish white (Sweta) planet has crossed Chitra Nakshatra. Neelakantha Chathurdhara, the Indian scholar who lived in Varanasi in the later half of the 17th century also had the knowledge of Uranus or Sweta. Sweta means greenish white, which was later discovered to be the color of Uranus. Neelakantha writes in his commentary on Mahabharat (Udyog 143) that Shveta, or Mahapata (one which has greater orbit) was a famous planet in the Astronomical science of India. He calls this “Mahapata” which means one that has greater orbit and indicates a planet beyond Saturn.
Yeah Tim, bring on the Pluto discussion!
Well done and great research! Enjoyed it!
Pluto is a planet!
Accoring to which definition?
@@Kyle_Hubbard Yes, it is a dwarf planet!
I was here before the title changed from "How to find a planet" to "How to discover a planet" to "How Uranus discovered Neptune"
Me: alright computer find me da planet
Computer: line 147 missing a colon

I'd love to see more of this kind of video
Really good explanation
i love your videos! you amazing.
This video is even better with the jokes about people faltering when their paradigm is challenged 👌 I literally lol'd so many times. So true!
Sage Veda Vyasa mentioned Uranus, Neptune and Pluto in his epic poem Mahabharata and named them as Sweta, Syama and Teekshana.
AKA George. Uranus was named George (after 1776 King George) for 30 years.
Hehe Uranus :DDD
