    I am an Astrophysics major (although this knowledge isn't from a class), we don't currently know of any stars large enough to create a GRB that are pointed at us and close enough to cause mass extinction level damage. The closest possibility is WR 104, a Wolf Rayet star (basically a star that's so big and powerful that it's blasting off a sizeable fraction of its mass in its solar wind, although there are other traits), which is pointed vaguely towards us and very large, but it's not certain that it will create a GRB (one originating in a high metallicity star would be unusual) and only certain attempts to measure its axis have shown it as anywhere near pointed at us, other methods have found it pointed well to the side and therefore not a threat.
    Short duration GRB, which are created by colliding neutron stars, would be harder to identify as those are small enough that us failing to detect them is a real possibility at the ranges close enough to be a threat, but those are even more rare, and release less energy than long duration ones.

    Hello Kurzgesagt! I really admire you and I love the work that you do! I'd like to share something rather personal with you. Something I've been holding onto for about 2 years now and I have to tell you this now. So, please allow me to elaborate so by the time your done reading my comment, you'll know why.. Firstly, I am a deaf man but I haven't always been deaf! You see, I was born with a horrible disease called Ménière's and after me fighting and battling with it for 23 years of my life, it finally took my hearing from me.. I knew eventually I'd lose my hearing before I was 30 years old, due to the aggressive progression of it but during my last year of hearing, I tried so much to listen to as much of the things I loved because the only way I would be able to hear again.. was.. to relive my memories.. My sister has helped me so much through my depression and what she started doing for me - and even still to this very day - she writes down videos for me in my notebook and then I'll try to read and watch the video the best I can because sadly, the UA-cam Captions are worthless. That is how I found you. I especially fell in love with you're work because in that field, making a deaf person hear again is possible and I long so badly to hear again. It saddens me that if I ever meet a woman and have kids, I'll never hear their voices.. It saddens me even more deeply I can't here my mom's voice no more or even my dad's.. I never realized how ungrateful I really was with my life.. How I took things for granted and how I long to change my past because now I know, what it means to be appreciative!! You sadly don't appreciate something until you don't have it no more.. I sadly, learn't the hard way. So, for watching your videos for about 2 years now, it has really helped me so much through my depression.. in ways you probably wouldn't understand.. I'm always so excited when you release a new video because, I love to LEARN! And one last thing before I end this, a few weeks ago, my Doctor diagnosed me with Endocrine Cancer but I am still waiting on the official results.These last few years, I was slowly getting out of my depression but getting that news, really.. really brought me down..i don't want to go blind too!! i don't want to die either.. So, I needed to get this off my chest because who knows, I might be dead in a few months, I don't know. I was never one to express my self but all I have had since I went deaf, was the UA-cam Community and I am just thanking all the ones that has helped me through this that didn't even know they we're even there for me! I know my comment will disappear with all the others and that's OK!! At least I know I took my time to write this for ya! Thanks for everything and thanks for being there for me, when you didnt even know you was.. goodbye friend. bye bye now and remember, rock on!!

Than help create our own bloody universe, and life forever. Maybe one day hit the bar, and meet the kursgesagt team. Have some space pints, and just smile. Because they were wrong. We didn't die. But odds are we won't escape our mortality ANY time soon and we're all stuck here until it all ends individually for each one of us. Making every single experience we've ever had absolutely worthless as it cannot. Literally cannot be remembered. No matter how much we do, odds are. It's for absolute nothing. Emptiness.

      The atmosphere will absorb most of it, so, when it hits, the sky'll turn white (maybe enough to temporarily blind you) and most of the Ozone layer will be gone.
      It would take you a month to die from slower causes like lack of oxygen, tumors and sun exposure.
      So, when and IF it happens, quickly get indoors and you'll only get sunburnt a bit.

    The fact we won't know a GRB is going to hit us until it actually DOES hit us actually puts me at ease. It means that fucking mass hysteria wouldn't be a thing before it hits.

    • @Adrenalin844
      @Adrenalin844 7 років тому +14

      Sorry to disappoint you, but there'd be more mass hysteria than ever observed. The burst hitting us wouldn't kill us, but rather cook the ozone layer. The following few years would cause, well, 101% cancer for every human and anything else remotely alive during daytime, and all of our tech would probably get wrecked. Much worse than panicking about knowing that it's coming and going out of your mind to prepare for it.

    • @zacharyadler4071

      +Adrenalin844 Apparenty everyone just instantly dies from it, no cooking over years involved.

    • @Adrenalin844
      @Adrenalin844 7 років тому

      It doesn't cook stuff. Mostly... Just completely destroys all of the Earth's protections against radiation. If it's close enough, it would also have leftover radiation hitting the planet after the ozone layer is gone, but I'm pretty sure there are no stars viable to become GRB's close enough to cause that effect.

    • @flyingpenandpaper6119

      +Adrenalin844 but if there was a star close enough, would we all die instantly?

    • @Adrenalin844
      @Adrenalin844 7 років тому

      Not as far as I know. Radiation doesn't melt things after all, and gamma radiation would simply screw our atmosphere up. Now if some gass gets ejected from close enough and hits us... Then it's a whole other story.

      +Hasan Bora Kaygın well, if you look at the "uncannon" star wars comic where chewy and Han warp drive to earth and get stranded. then doing the calculations, the force awakens takes place around 1844, only about 172 years ago.

      Fortunately, AFAIK astronomers haven't found any stars nearby about to make a black hole. Thanks to math, we can judge how close a star is to becoming a black hole (if it can) and if a problematic system is discovered, we will have enough of a head start to put massive funding into a space program and anti-gamma ray materials to make a shield of sorts. It won't be quick, but we will have quite the head start.

      It travel with (almost) light speed, so if they found one, you and I (and everyone else) already dead. The biggest danger what we know is Betelgeuse, but we are not sure what will happen with it. And it could died hundreds of years ago (and the Earth killing GRB is on its way), or it will be alive for thousands of years more, and there won't be any GRB, or it won't hit us all.
