Great story. When it's a slow day in astrophysics, biology always has something to offer.
4:24 Oh my lord, Anton used a pun! This is a new era of the channel.
It seems like those creatures achieved enlightenment
50 points deducted from Hufflepuff for an unauthorized use of a basement tier pun.
I love the random comedy I can find in the comments of his videos. What a cool community he has.
Have to give you a glowing review for this one, Anton!
May your light continue to shine for us!
😂
its only light now that plants can create, but give it some time and plants start shooting with lasers
The ones that shoot lasers are the ones that don't get eaten....
They'll make a "pew pew" sound when they do it too.
shooting photon beams attracts predators and thus the plant dies out over time.
plants vs zombies 3
Another recent discovery is that the scent of mown grass is produced by grass when it's under attack. It seems this scent attracts predators of the insects that usually eat the grass. So by producing this scent it's actually calling for a predator to come and get the offending insect. So given a few million years, grass will have it's own weapon to shoot anyone that dares to approach it with a lawn mower.
So groovy, this planet. Thank you for explaining the details to us and making these lesson fun!
Least alien anthon viewer
😂 So groovy, indeed.
Science is in great development in every field. My religion, Islam, attaches importance to science and supports both philosophy and technology. The Quran says that the sun and the moon are in a certain orbit, and the harmony in the world and the magnificence in space show the greatness of Allah.
Shine little glow worm glitter!!
Thanks Anton. Hope you are well.
Bioluminescence is what happens when I see there's a new video from your channel, and it makes me smile. Luv u, Anton.
This channel has become a staple in my routine! Thank you so much Anton! It’s been a refreshing break from True Crime.
I've heard second hand that if you eat the bioluminescent mushrooms "they recharge your batteries"
Dunno about that, but might make your piss glow in the dark. ;^[}
Someone should talk to Paul Stamets about crossing Psilocybe with Omphalotus spp (jack-o'-lantern mushroom) - then you'd have shrooms that glow in the dark, and then make you see glow in the dark stuff everywhere after you eat them.
When I was a wee youngen I collected a heap of fireflies in a jar to try and make a night light. They all died and I felt really bad :(
@@stevengill1736Those would sell like hotcakes, just on word of mouth alone...
Gosh, Anton! Your videos are always so informative and entertaining! And, I love your smile! You are an all-around great person!! 😊❤
Myra fancy’s Anton 😊
@Joe_1sr9 Yes I do!! 😊❤️
Right? Hands down, my favourite science-themed YT channel, along with PBS Spacetime. He's so good at packing a lot of complex info into a concise, layperson-accessible video.
Lucifer means "light bringer", very cool naming of these molecules!
Lucifer the Morning Star
Have those scientists ever considered that bioluminescence evolved so many times just because it’s cool? Everybody likes stuff that glows.
Yes, definitely sexy. Makes one want to talk about eggs. If they wiggle the glowy fin's tip in that seductive way... rawwr. Makes one want to spawn allover their hollow in the sand! If only these shrimp would go away... they look hungry...
( 😅 )
Every civilization has its rave phase.
This post is so plur.
i want a pet anglerfish
Science has been in great development in the last century. Religion and science support each other. Islam values science. The existence of the world is in a great order. The formation of day and night, seasons, the continuous growth of space, and the fact that each planet is beautiful and magnificent in its own way shows the greatness of Allah. It is Allah who creates this from nothing. He created it to serve people so that we can be thankful
Thanks Anton, this is really kool stuff.
As a side note on the greens and blue colors. The marine environment color range is in shades of green to ultraviolet. Many species have ultraviolet iridescence. We cannot typically see this ultraviolet as humans, but under a soft UV light at night we can catch a glimpse of it. The nighttime marine environment if far "Brighter" than out human eyes realize :)
I just had a thought... if places like Europa and Enceladus do have life, they might have creatures that bioluminesce also? Underneath all that ice.
Wouldn't that be beautiful.
Beautiful image to think about.
very bright of them.
Another great Anton video
Dinoflagellates sparkle every night on the brightest bio bay on Earth.
Vieques, Puerto Rico.
Amazing stuff. Thanks Anton for the wonderful video.
Watch one of your videos every morning 😅
Fascinating. Thanks. So informative and interesting.
pretty sure they do it because it looks awesome
Wonderful as always Anton. Thank you. 👍☺️
Greetings Anton, great vlogs, one minor correction, not archaeological but palaeontological, please keep up the good work, always fascinating and informative!!!
Anton is also luminescent since he shines light on all kinds of knowledge. 🎉😊
WOW! one of your most exciting vids yet!! thanks so much for all your hard work and the research you put into making these…am sending this one to my molecular bio professor friend at UT.
Glowing developed because it looks 😎
I wonder if any of those bio-luminescent mushrooms are good in a stir fry.
Would it glow?
Chemical reactions that produce light or fairly rare . Are there any chemical reactions that produce ultraviolet?
@@robertunderwood1011too much energy required for this type of chemical reaction.
Of the dozen or so I've read about, they are either slightly to moderately toxic, or woody like shelf fungi.
In America they often go by the name of foxfire or fairy lantern, and you can buy plugs that are already inoculated to grow them for yourself.
I would imagine the constituent chemicals would oxidize into oblivion quickly with heat and dicing.
My daughter has Down Syndrome, and I used to buy her those 100 packs of glowsticks to play with when she was a baby. When cracking one of them for her, the stick ruptured, and I ended up with neon glow in the dark hands for about 5 minutes. I tried taking a few outside and painting the steps with spatters of glow, but it lost it's luminescence within a minute or two on exposure to air...
Love this. 🌟 THANK YOU!
The abyss fish is nightmare material right there.
Actually most white LEdDs today are at better than 50% efficiency, some getting up to about 70%. On the quantum level they are even more efficient but some of the light does not exit the semiconductor crystal or gets lost in the phosphor that does the blue to white translation of the light.
Hello wonderful Anton
> "Radiant beings are we, not this crude matter."
~ Yoda
Isn't it "Luminous beings"?
@@joewhitfield5561 Yes it is. One of my favorite scenes ever.
Thanks you my friend!
We need Anton to explain the basic nature of reality, light.
JUst a small side anecdote to this subject. Back in the mists of time (1991) We were producing an animated kids' series called Roughnecks, The Starship Trooper Chronicles. It was one of the first 3D animated TV series ever made. One of the problems we had was that try as we might the characters just looked dead. We tried every filtering and image manipulation trick in the book to bring these characters to life and nothing worked. Then one of the guys ran a little test. He made one of the characters skin a 5% light source. In other word they radiated a tiny amount of light and lo and behold they 'came to life'. We used it on all the other shows we worked on, even when we did CG characters in live action.
Light,always fascinating, thanks 👍😊
Fact check: LED lights are more like 40% efficient, not "only 20% efficient". 20% efficiency is akin to a relatively efficient incandescent light (i.e. not efficient at all in the grand scheme of things).
So, the ocean is saying come eat this surfer.
Coral, feeling threatened, starts to breathe heavy, triggering its antioxidant reaction. Biologists: Oh, it's "turned on".
Were some of the Ediacaran squooshies bioluminescent? Like those jellyfish and that kind of sea pen that glows when you touch it? That would have looked so cool.
Best LEDs have much higher efficiency than 20%. Best white LEDs have package efficiency of over 70% and blue ones around 90%. But more typical values for mid bracket high quality ones are in a range of 55% and 70%.
That's efficiency relative to equivalent incandescent bulbs. The video is referring to absolute lumens/watt efficiency. A quick search says that the diodes themselves actually produce light at about 30-40% of their theoretical maximum. I suppose the 20% comes from counting in the additional inefficiencies of the circuitry, phosphors, and other factors included in the average bulb.
It all just goes to show just how horrendously inefficient incandescent bulbs are. 💡
@@davidh.4944 No, I'm talking about the absolute efficiency. I studied these for my work projects. You can find some info regarding top of the line efficiency for example by searching
"From physics to fixtures to food: current and potential LED efficacy"
Could it have been a defense mechanism? So those with eyes didn't run into them? Especially when the Earth was darker. So they glow to keep themselves from getting smashed by a shark or whale for instance?
fascinating!
Great video! Pls make the sound clearer...just a suggestion
Thank you
The simplest explanation is that these creatures have reached enlightenment.
👽😇
another you're correct they do miss this aisle stage but the blanket stage is called a motile stage.
I think it's funny how it is implied that we've discovered the first organism that had bioluminescence' when after all' we don't know.
Interesting
why don't we turn the lights off with ROV in the deep ocean and film (with special cameras) the light show?
or at the very least film with red light as to not scare away animals with the ROV's bright white light.
we could learn so much from turning the lights out.
Such tiny critters playing with light better than we do!
Bioluminescent earthworms, too
Going by your Vader shirt, it was the medichlorians.
All bioluminesent creatures have now been fitted with low voltage high brightness LEDs, when first fitted with light bulbs in the 1960s there was a lot of problems with water getting in and short circuiting the equipment. Even with good insulation the problem still persisted, and 800v electricity supply give rise to electrocuting everything around for miles. As time has go by the technology now has perfected the problem. And at the start only white bulbs were available, but thankfully now with LEDs any number of colours are in use.
Terry knew.
if i would be able to glow i would score 10x more
Let there be light
I learned recently that humans are also slightly bioluminescent. Researchers still don't know why, I'm not sure they know how either, but we all glow. It's just so dim that you can't see it.
I recently discovered the "Boring Billion" and its funny colored oceans. You should give them a try.
Woow alot of speculations
Maybe it's just about energy. Looks aren't everything, and earlier on with simple life it actually meant nothing because sensing color wasn't a thing yet, and everything pretty much has to be a color. Color doesn't have to have a "reason". Energy is a much better "reason" for any living organism. Gr8! Peace ☮💜Love
2:20 WHAT IS THAT
@Anton Petrov; Hello Wonderful Person 👋 💫
Bioluminescent entities definitely get the imagination rolling, all the different information presented here most likely is as accurate as the scientists behind the biology release to the annals and journals of present day. Someday when the boundaries of science meet the impenetrable barrier of totality in the grace of evolutionary civilization we’ll be able to genetically modify attributes to utilize bioluminescence as an medicinal and effective alternative to present day limitations.
2:46 Archeological record, not paleontologial?? TRIGGERED. In all seriousness though this topic intrests me quite a lot, and I do not know why. Really good video!
The problem with luminescence is it uses energy and gives your position away to anything and anyone that is interested. In an ocean full of predators, it's quite remarkable that its so common.
Why not have vacuum areas that heat up
0:41 WTF ANTON really are you trolling or did u ask woody from toy story to animate that
94…. NINETY FOUR separate cases of life converging on a biological creation of light
Mindblowing
💡
👁👁👁 very good
1:23 90% of the time, it works every time!
Anton, do you know of any experiments involving animals and ultra-violet light? I think scorpions, for example light up. Why is that? Must be others.
They've developed more efficient led's using the structure of the lightning bug.
damn if its 90% efficient compared to LED light having 20% efficient 😬😬. we really need this to be researched intensely
❤❤❤❤
Theres a bacteria that glows too.
Bacteria can do pretty much everything. Learning how to gentically engineer it is key to converting planets to atmospheres we can breathe IMO. Using in situ or minimum salting to set of a chain reaction.
I know nothing in this regard, but is it at all possible that bioluminescence was the earlier solution for dissipating the extra energy, and it's use in metabolism came later? Genuine question.
If the corals so ancient developped that tactic, the reason for the tactics must be equally old
Could. An unwater intelligent species use it . Maybe an under civilization have more use of domesticating other species for their technology
Underwater civilizations would be unlikely to invent fire or something similar, even if they were amphibious and figured out how to use above ground fires they would probably be doomed. Besides that they need agriculture as well. It seems unlikely to me that an underwater civilization would progress past hunter gatherers. A very advanced pre fire underwater culture would be unlikely to even progress to the heights of human aztecs even if they had farming because they still wouldn’t have fire.
So,do they know what the "inactive" version is?
Damn, I didn't know LEDs were that inefficient
Bioluminescence = dark forest deference
I can bioluminescent too
just in the infra-red
Aluminium/oxygen magnetics are mysterious.
i wonder if the organisms in the deep ocean will survive a terrestrial extinction event
Also why do we have an atmosphere? from the perspective of, why is it still here?
❤️👍
1:29 Just making sure someone points out that the most efficient commercially available LEDs have around 50% efficiency. Still nowhere near as impressive as bioluminescence but the light technology is already over twice as efficient than what it was a decade ago.
basically these creatures reverse photosynthesis instead of collecting light to produce sugars and oxygen they use the oxygen and mayor probably sugars to create light. so his reverse photosynthesis
Good point !
Like galaxies
👍🙂
I Don’t Care Who Calls me a Sissy !!! Those Angler Fish are Some Freaking Scary Looking Fish and Just Because Science Probably Doesn’t Know for Sure , Could You imagine Diving and One of These the Size of a Pickup Truck is Coming at You or more Likely Teasing You Close Enough To Bite with its Glowing Antenna Tip !!!! Talk about Prehistoric Looking !!!!
I thought all animals were radiating light but we couldn’t see it. Like we produce heat heat is light. But it’s like infrared????
The sun is a sentient glowing celestial body
Oooo
Anton, what happened at the end of your video? It looked like someone forced you to smile when you were angry 😂
Implant RGB LEDs around your groin! I’ve been saying this! Dare to become irresistible. Only 290 payments of $29.95. (Don’t act like your date strolling up with an underglow isn’t gonna make you want a closer look).
RGB / effect "buttocks plugs" have been a trend now in some Southeast Asian countries for few years already. Often used with a thin, see through skirt for late night parties.
@@tkermi Um... I admire Asian culture in general, but I could've gone my entire life without that twinkling, colour-cycling image in my head...
"Ugh," to the power of "Ew."
@@Deletirium 😅 Yeah, I think they are mainly used by ladies with profession related to partying and intimate services. Though some free spirited design seekers apparently wore them too.
