      In fact, you will see the past and history when you look at the sky. Since light travels at 300,000 kilometers per second, many events in the universe you will not be able to observe until its light reaches your eyes.
      The Andromeda galaxy can be seen with the naked eye (you will see it better with a telescope). But the Andromeda galaxy is 2,500,000 light-years away from Earth, which means that the Andromeda galaxy you see is an image of the past more than 2. 5 million years ago.
      Kepler 452b was discovered in 2015 and is 1400 light years away from Earth. That means when we look at Kepler 452b we are seeing its past 1400 years ago. We have no way of observing the planets, stars and galaxies in real time. If a star 10 light-years away from Earth explodes, you won't see that event until 10 years later

For me I can't image how many different intelligent life forms are out there, a thousand , a million, a billion?. These life forms being thousands or millions of years more advanced then us would easily have develop propulsion drives or ways of travel we can't comprehend that could reach us. Even if we were able to travel at warp speed (using star Trek as an example) we would never be able to explore the complete galactic multiverse. That would also be true I assume for the other intelligent life forms......maybe. Thank you for the great reaction and bringing us this video.

    In Ancient Greece, Anaximander suggested “apeiron” referring to how big the universe must be. The Greek word “apeiron” means without limit in time and space, suggesting the universe is boundless. In other words, infinite. This makes perfect sense to me. Since things exist, there must be no limit to existence and existence must be limitless. So I think there’s that the so called “big bang” was the “beginning” of “everything”. Meanwhile, evolutionarily, the odds of us being here, not to mention being here as humans, is unbelievably small, yet here we are. That renders us individually and collectively responsible for consciously choosing to always educating and informing ourselves and each other scientifically and to abandon our archaic, outdated, untrue, primitive superstitions and fairytales and fearmongering. You only fear something if you don’t understand it or don’t know about it. When barrier is crossed, new possibilities open that you likely haven’t even imagined before. Only a few centuries ago we didn’t even know kat if what we know about the universe today. Going back to Ancient Greece which no longer exists, all those great philosophers didn’t know anywhere near what the average person knows today thanks to the enlightenment reformations and the industrial as well as technological revolutions, breakthroughs and discoveries.
    Back to cosmos, I still think the universe has no beginning or end, and is ultimately exempt from time. So there was never a creation. Only evolution. And we as an ape species are but one amongst possibly countless others that are intelligent enough to compose and comprise entire civilisations, regardless of their levels and scales. And there’s no way any species is the so called “center of the universe”. We just be, and that’s it.

    or
    The hopeful way: "this is incredible, this gives us something to strive for so that one day when whatever species we evolve into a billion years from now we can take our first confident steps into our wider galaxy and maybe even beyond that and begin to explore everything that reality has to offer, uncover possibly unknowably ancient civilisations who hit their technological peak when we were cavemen, learn their secrets, record and learn from what they knew and rise to a whole new level of understanding the grand cosmos and our place in it.

      They estimated there are atleast about 20 billion planets in the habital zone of their star in this galaxy alone.
      There are galaxies with 100 trillion stars atleast.

      No. Saturn would also appear as a little dot, this picture was shot waaaayyyy farther away. Those "streaks" you see in that picture are just reflections of the sunlight within the camera lenses.

    Basically it’s called “ observable” because at night we can see it all from your back yard. Because that’s what the light we can see from them shining it’s light at us. But imagine if we were at a different part of our galaxy, like if we lived at our neighboring star then one corner of the universe we would no longer see but there would be an entire new corner of the universe we could see

    The universe is infinite and does not end, ever. It can't. If it did, there would have to be some sort of boundary, which would then have to be infinitely thick. It's damn near impossible for us to wrap our finite minds around this but it is the way it is and the only way that it can be when you break it down to the simple fact. I understood this as a young child when I started asking myself these questions and visualizing it and incorporating common sense. There's really no other way around this.

    I think that is awesome because it makes each of us truly unique. Not in the entire history of the galaxy theirs be another you. They say there could be a multiverse so there could be another you. But it can’t be truly you because you have breathed different molecules which interacted with your body chemistry. How can a duplicate of you breath those same molecules at the same time you do? You’re unique.🙂

    Based on what we already know about how life started on earth with the building blocks arriving in comets, we can assume that, given the literally unmeasurable size of the universe that this has happened in other places. We may never have physical evidence of it but assuming that there isn't any just out of skepticism is fairly ignorant at this point.

    In fact, people are not small, medium-sized objects on the scale of the universe and even slightly larger than average. The smallest distance in the universe is considered to be the Planck length. It is 1,616,255(18)⋅10^-35 m. Roughly speaking, it is 10^-35 times less than a meter or 10^-32 times less than a millimeter. 10^32 is 100 nonillions or 100 thousand billions, billions, billions. Here is how this number looks like 100000000000000000000000000000000. In general, 1 with 32 zeros. So, the dimensions of the observable universe are 880 * 10^24 meters or 880 yottameters. Or it can be represented as 10^26 degrees of meters, for convenience. So, if we take the most approximate, convenient values of the Planck length and the size of the observable universe, we will get a gap from 10 ^ -35 to 10 ^ 26 meters and the average value on this scale will be from 10 ^ -5 to 10 ^-4, while the size of a person on this scale is 10 ^ 0. The size of our galaxy will be 10^20, the atom 10^-10, the Earth 10^7. And I'll tell you this, 10^ -5 - 10^-4 meters is 10-100 micrometers or 0.01-0.1 millimeters, and this is the size of some bacteria. They are the average-sized objects in the universe and a person is 10-100 thousand times larger than them. And for reference, 0.1 millimeters is the minimum size that we can see with an unarmed eye. So we are not so small on the scale of the universe and even slightly larger than the average size of objects 😄 (Sorry for my poor English)

    Pluto is not a moon. It was originally classified as a planet, but is now considered to be a dwarf planet. A moon is a body that orbits around a planet. Pluto orbits the sun but does not have a radius/mass large enough to be considered a planet.

      There is a mathematical equation that used to be used to show how improbable life on other planets is. Then we learned more and the same equation now shows it to be highly likely. As for meeting up with that alien life it would depend greatly on whether FTL travel is possible. There are several ideas revolving around time and/or gravity that might make this possible but our knowledge in this area is still so limited that we don't even know what's possible yet.
