    Dude it has been so fuggin cool watching this channel grow into what it is now! In a world full of A.I. videos an bot bull shit, its super refreshing to have such an amazing "human experience" flaws and all. It's a beautiful thing and should be celebrated.

      Yes. I’ll take human commentary over AI any day. AI is great for visuals, especially if you’re covering a more obscure topic that doesn’t have a whole lot of art or photos for it.

    hey john, could you start a series of videos called "as explained by john"?
    the reason i ask is because after i watched this vid i watched one of your older ones on exoplanets...
    in that vid you said something about a planet being too big and thus may not have a biosphere... you went on to say that the best alternative planets would be no bigger than 2 earths or something like that...
    well can you make a video explaining why if we found a giant or super earth why it still wouldn't be inhabitantal to us??
    perhaps that video could kick off a side series "as explained by john" or
    "john explains" because details like this size of a planet effecting our ability to live there I'd like more information on!
    you could pick out details like that and make highlight videos on them.
    just an idea...

  • @Breakfast_and_Bullets
    @Breakfast_and_Bullets 3 дні тому

    John, I want to say that I love your videos. You always put out exceptionally good content.
    As such, I want to apologize for being somewhat pedantic, but I hope you will understand.
    At 8:25 you described snakes as "poisonous," but there is a difference between poisonous and venomous. If you bite it and you die, it is poisonous. If it bites you and you die, it is venomous. The snake switch you are referring to in the video are venomous.

    You can imagine the horror of seamen seeing a rogue wave bearing down on them. Everyone has always told them they cannot exist, yet in their last seconds seeing one with their own eyes... It must have been like a dragon suddenly appearing in Trafalgar Square or a flying saucer setting down and saluting Nelson's statue!

  • @cykkm
    @cykkm 3 дні тому +13

    Oh dear. The Arecibo failure mode discovery is perhaps the most important one. When a replacement is ever built, the construction mistake mustn't be repeated. In a galvanic contact of Zn with steel, Zn dissolves (this is how Zn-plated steel is protected from corrosion: Zn becomes the sacrificial anode if water makes it through the coating). It makes sense that the process is accelerated by induced currents, but the huge metal construction seems to provide enough grounding even for GHz-range currents, as it hardly has any inductance. Apparently, it ultimately doesn't, and these currents need to be considered.

  • @0ptimal
    @0ptimal 2 дні тому

    I often notice how just because we can't explain or understand how something is, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Like when others tell us about this or that thing and we find it unlikely because no ones broken down how to explain it. I think of all of the truths out there that aren't known, and maybe we get glimpses of but dismiss them.

    Weird that I don't have snake-o-phobia, but that spider thing was a "please, nope" even though I'm not actually scared of them.
    I do live in Australia, so being really close to a spider is kinda annoying (and certainly sets off your defensive measures).

      No live streaming yet, but in the future we might do some on the JMG clips channel. It's not really right for this channel or Event Horizon, but might be fun on clips or twitch or something. I can tell you folks what I'm currently playing on PS5 tho. World of Warships Legends, which I've been playing for years, and Helldivers 2.

    At 12:15, there was Orion in the upper left side of the screen.bout the Arecibo radio-telescope, you can also speculate that the strong radio emissions+ very high humidity could have provoked a kind of electrolysis of the zinc.like copper tubing near an iron nail + humidity produces a slow oiercing of the copper tube.China Fast 500 radio-telescope is stronger than the one at Arecibo wich was 305 m in diameter.
