Thank you for sharing with us, Anton. Very much appreciated, as always! And please, keep up the amazing work, my friend.
I have always imagined there would be black holes or a swarn of them holding clusters together. It was really apparent to me for some reason but didn't think about wether it had been discovered or not... Very interesting that this exists and I wouldn't expect it to be a swarm of them!
Anton. I'm an old person and hope I live long enough to continue hearing what you have to say. Your explanations are superb and I, and many others, hope you continue helping us learn. My thanks, Anton - and YOU are a Wonderful Person.
Anton, M13 is the first cluster I've found on my own...this subject is near and dear to my heart...this is my favorite vid of yours so far and I've seen a a lot of them...Please keep up the awesome work! You are my favorite Wonderful person!
I found this channel and haven't stopped watching all your videos since. You speak in such a soft voice which makes it more easier to understand the concepts.
@@jaysonscott187 Well I'm exaggerating but low numbers are usually to do with solar systems or short distances. More often the numbers involved are in the billions more or less haha
Well for perspective compared to smaller galaxies that is actually pretty high for instance the Large Magellanic Cloud has about 11 Globular clusters so the less massive the galaxy the likely less it will have (though The Milky Way is probably going to eventually steal the LMC's globular for now they are still gravitationally bound to the galaxy along with a small collection of satellite galaxies. In the local Group only Andromeda, The Milky Way, Triangulum, and the Large Magellanic Clouds have any globular clusters probably since like gas and stars bigger galaxies tend to stripe them away. I'm not actually sure what the minimum mass to hold onto globular clusters is but the LMC appears to be about 10% the mass of the Milky Way accounting for Dark Matter Halos. The galaxy itself is aa recent capture only just going through its second pass so it seems to have been thus far insulated from tidal stripping thanks to its baryonic gas halo which suggests its probably a good representation for how many Globular Clusters the LMC had in terms of order of magnitude Another factor which may explain the "low" numbers relative to a galaxies mass is that several of the Milky Way's Globular clusters are in the process of being destroyed via tidal interactions with the Milky Way probably ones the Milky Way originally stole from galaxies it has devoured given their orbits
This channel is my source for the latest is space science news. I love it. For me, it's the best way to keep up with the most recent discoveries without having to read and wrap my head around papers that would probably make my brain melt. Keep up the great work, Anton!
oh that brings back some memories, while arriving home with my wife back in the early 90's; when i didn't know any better, anyway, big spider on the porch, so being mostly my x-wife's fault, she yells "Stomp on it", yea, good idea except it had a thousand babies on its back (i thought it looked big for a spider) anyway again, of course i had to stomp and stomp some more with little spider babies running in every direction, i wonder how funny it looked to the neighbors? "Look hunny, i told you white people can't dance" oh yea, black holes, yea thems things are everywhere, mostly at the center of something important.
I would have never visualized it like that. Spiders, huh. Keep thinking about things. We need different minds working in different ways because we will never get anywhere if we just rely on a few people with the same way of thinking.
There are 3 generations of star formation, as I understand it. Planets are more a property of later generation stars where heavy elements are present (formed in supernovae). As globular clusters are so old, it is likely there is a low predominance of heavy elements, and hence planets.
400,000 stars in a globular cluster 34 light years across. That is a high density. That would be a spherical volume of 20,580 cubic light years. That would be 20 stars per cubic light year. Average distance between stars would be 0.368 light year. Approx. 4 trillion kms, 1/10 the distance to Proxima Centauri.
I’m drunk but I love your videos. Id just like to ramble for a second. We are so primitive in our understanding of what Antov teaches us. He looks at things in so many perspectives. That’s what he understands and puts it into a meaningful way we can start to understand. I’m just wondering. If physics is based on probabilities because that’s as far as our math will work. Are people looking at several different problems and trying to find a similarity in the mathematics.? A similarity in the math between probability problems could Lead to new mathematics. I’d give you the credit if I could.
So does this mean, any advanced civilizations out there who might already be communicating between one another, would most likely exist inside globular clusters? We are sort of like, a stranded civilization?
@@Barnardrab Even worse than visual light would be all of the other radiation, like ionizing radiation, and Gamma Radiation from all of the many hundreds or thousands of stars.. oh yeah, and the more frequent outbursts from the more frequent novas or supernovas... Those would scorch anything resembling life as we know it..
Very interesting video on globuler clusters Anton. Considering their shape and star density, it pretty logically follows that they would also have higher densities of black holes as well. Moral of the story, on your next interstellar trip, steer clear of GC! Greetings from home Anton.
The first time I saw a documentary about Globular Clusters was in the 80's, but the film was from the mid 60's. Most of the info was probebly wrong, (I don't realy remember it much), But it realy got me interested in them. Thank you Anton for the latest news.
Very nice video, Anton! I can see you have done your homework ;-) Globular clusters are fantastic and hide answers to many questions regarding DM and the evolution of (a) galaxy. I'll check out the paper. Thank you!
Seems like there's a lot more black holes that we've thought earlier, so I'm calling it now: dark matter is black holes. They're everywhere and mess up the way galaxies rotate etc.
I have to wonder if there's a set of 6 black holes orbiting each other around a central point. (reference to an obscure scifi novel series, had to note it. :) )
@@richardconway6425 Just black holes are scary. Now add in swarms of black hole, combined with max levels of radiation, because swarms of black holes was not terrifying enough.
Is there anything about space that wonderful Mr. Petrov doesn't know? How does he find the time to be so well studied and up to date, and still make videos?
I wonder if the big bang was the singularity of all former universe blackholes combined. After all stars even red and white dwarfs finally cooled off, the remaining black holes converged over time, then got so massive, it's singularity spewed out everything it sucked in from the previous universe. Sort of like a repeated cycle.
That is... *Terrifying!!!* Of all places to visit on your galactic cruise I would say cross off any globular clusters from the list! The night sky illustration is exactly what Asimov was talking about in 'Nightfall'... Except not only was it filled with hundred of thousands of stars but a gaggle of black holes as well. That planet was _deeply_ screwed whether it was 'nighttime' from all the eclipses or not!!!
I'd like to assume they are just a form of early galaxies. Tiny black holes, LOTS of raw matter from the starts. Collision and novas and billions of years and boom, rocks gasses stability. I'm not super educated in this field but I like it.
This is something that one should expect to have always been happening. Why would they be surprised by the frequency of gravitational wave detections? I always thought this was happening. Is there something different about how their brains work? Do they just look at equations and numbers and never visualize things in their minds? I expect this is happening more often than the gravitational wave detections would suggest. Another thing you never see them talking about is the collisions of planets with planets or stars with stars. It's always them going into orbit around one another when they get close because of how they interpret the distortion in space time. Usually you see an animation of one star sucking off material from another. I'm waiting for them to start finding more evidence of stars colliding with stars.
Anton a correction at 4:14. There will not be any supernovas because of the advanced age of ALL the stars. Even the blue stragglers are smaller than type FO and not massive enough to undergo cataclysmic collapse.
hey, Anton! i caught a paper the other day researching the possibility of black holes having hair, unlike the paper in the video you showed us one time, and i was curious if you have seen it yet. this team seems to think it’s possible for black holes to have hair, i have no idea, but it would be really cool if you covered this other paper, too!!
@@RideAcrossTheRiver Gravimetric distortion? I think thats star trek technobabble and not a real thing. Alsp being in a globular would suck. To many nearby giant stars nearby that could go supernova and the journey towards the core would provably fling us into intergalactic space. Be nice to be near one, but not in one.
I imagine that over the next few billion years most if not all of those blackholes will merge into one large intermediate mass/low mass super-massive blackhole.
Great work as usual, Anton. If there was just one black hole in the middle of a globular cluster, that would have an axis of rotation, and over 13 billion years wouldn't the cluster be flatter? Having lots of little black holes dancing around would allow the spherical symmetry to be maintained?
6:32 34 lj diameter, 40,000 stars, so in average 2 stars per cubic light year 6:36 1000 times more than here, so we have here 1 star per 500 cubic lightyears. So the average distance should be here 8 light ears.
I heard 400K. I went back to listen again at 4:53 and Anton did say 400 thousand stars in the cluster in question. You're just missing one zer0. That's an even higher density of stars. 😰

IT was a while ago that I was pointing out that many undetected, small BHs can't be ruled out as part of the missing "dark" matter. Everyone was insisting that we would see microlensing everywhere, and I was pointing out that we recently discovered many white dwarves that were not know before with GAIA and not with microlensing surveys. It is good to know that there are still many more massive, yet perhaps tiny, things that are turning up that many would say "we would already know about".
Mr Petrov, Thanks so much for sharing your encyclopedic knowledge. Have you covered the theory of universe dissipation or "death" then re-constitution or "re-birth"? Remarkably similar to vedic 'age of Brahma' concept. Thanks again.
Actually, what this could mean is that globular clusters that do have a IMBH might be even older than the ones that don't. Because logically, if that many black holes are there and they are colliding, then the eventual result (if given enough time), would be one IMBH at or near the center of the Globular.
Imagine some really advanced civilization exploring around this area and just like our ancestors traveling uncharted waters and disasters these advanced beings encounter a swarm of black holes kind of like a ship captain dealing with two storms merging. Just a cool thought I’m sure we will see it in a movie eventually.
A thousand stars in the volume of our solar system? That's... that's a LOT denser than I thought! And it means several thousand planets, tens of thousands moons, millions of asteroids! What a treasure for a space travelling civ! They have so many places VERY near.
