I am honestly surprised Matt has never heard of a tardigrade. I don’t know much about biology or chemistry but I know what a tardigrade is. They look like bears in a space suit. They are quite famous I think.
Bears, hence the nickname "Water bears." They can survive months, if not years, w/o water. They can survive the most extreme of environments, such as space, volcanos, the deep sea, and even Ohio.
@@Arighan86 Yup. They're truly amazing, and I believe(bet) if we're ever gonna start life on Mars, those tartigrades are gonna be the first test. In relatively closed captivity, of course. No exploring too far the Martian lands, at least a large glass dome, like a greenhouse. Or the moon, or some other potentially habitable world.
"Coccus" is one of the words used to describe a bacteria's shape. It means round or spherical. There's also "Bacillus", which is rod-shaped (long and thin) and spiral shaped ones simply called "spiral bacteria".
@@CaTastrophy427 nah the mass of the black hole doesnt matter here the diameter measurement is kinda accurate, though I think its radius instead of diameter

Tardigrades are also known as water bears, so you probably have actually heard of them at some point. They're the little things that can survive extreme temperatures, radiation, suffocation, dehydration, starvation, and outer space.

@@elder_j_gaming721 quarks can't exist solo, the amount of energy require to pull one off a pair or triad is enough to create a new one. You can *never* have a lone quark.
@@elder_j_gaming721 sorta! It's the E=mc² thing; at some point there's so much energy that you have enough mass to pop fresh particles into the universe.
In atoms, "the thing around" is not a "magnetic field" (as per Matt the Wise), but rather electrons in the form of "electron density cloud" (because in this state, electrons exist more like a wave rather than like a particle).
Iron oxide is just rust I think. Tardigrade is also called a water bears. They are super tough. They can be released into the vacuum if space for years then brought in and they will come back to life with a bit of water

au is an Astronomical Unit, which is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. Parsec is derived from parallax-arcsecond, and is equivalent to a little over 3 light years
I'm am attorney, but actually got my BA in astrophysics (not a lot of job opportunities in astrophysics these days 🤷♂️). All these things (like spirulina and tardigrades) are real things. I missed the day on space manta rays and spaghetti monsters but don't doubt they're out there somewhere. You can actually see tardigrades in basically every water source - and they're super durable and can live in a vacuum as I recall. Very cool little creatures. But having a background in astrophysics, if a black hole that size was near a human, it would be all over for the human and everything else... A 1millimeter blackhole would have a mass roughly 10% earth's mass. That would mean about of 1/3 our planet would be immediately available as food and would start being pulled towards it and form an accretion disc with a temperature of 1billion degrees Kelvin (999,999,727 Celsius or 1,799,999,540 Fahrenheit). The sun's surface is only 6,000 kelvin and it's corona is 1million kelvin for comparison. If it had a relative velocity of 12km/s or less it would orbit earth with its accretion disc causing havoc and destruction for everything. A 1mm black hole cannot form in the current universe but it would have been possible shortly after the big bang and would have fit in the upper range of allowed mass.
Probably a 1mm black hole would immediately fall into the inner parts of the Earth with its emerging accretion disc which is destructively shining and crushing everthing on its way. Then it wrecks the whole surface due to the complete planetary destabilization through the destruction of everything inside within the Earth while it follows its orbit that shakes the whole planet. As the result, there would be only left some hot pieces of rock and molten metal as the remaings of the once planet Earth around the insanely spining and shining black hole.
17:20 A parsec is a unit of measurement. They are approximately 3.26 light years or 3.0857×1016 Meters. The reason in Star Wars Han stated he made the Kessel run in 12 parsecs is because he's an extremally skilled pilot. It normally takes people 20 parsecs to complete. FTL in the Star Wars universe is complicated. To complicated to explain in a simple comment.
Matt has never heard of: staphylococcus, probably the single most famous bacterial infection, and spirulina, which is sold in every Tesco (or Waitrose, if he's posh).
Thank you matt for this....i am a science professor and i was dying of laughter the whole way🤣 lets say you got some notion of science but i wouldn't wanna have you as my doctor😂😂😂
"...shortly we should be eating protons and neutrons. But for now, it's just yummy, yummy Quarks." After all this time, his brother Rom finally gets to inherit the bar. If only Nog had lived long enough to see it.
Au is astronomical Units, I believe it’s mostly used to measure distance in space. (I’m learning to be a geologic astronomer so I need to know this kind of stuff XD)
“Au” = Astronomical Unit, the average distance between the center of the earth and the center of the sun (149.6 million kilometers). --------- 1 parsec = 3.26 light years = 206,245 Astronomical Units (au) = 30.9 trillion Km Since space and time exist as space-time, a parsec could be said to measure distance… or relative distance when traveling at a different speed than the observer. Side note: Han Solo wasn’t necessarily wrong when he claimed to have “…made the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs.” That be a way to state how fast the Millennium Falcon was going in warp speed, only experiencing 12 parsecs of distance due to the speed, even though the actual distance was farther.
13:12 Fun fact! The structure of atoms is remarkably repeated constantly as you increase in size. Our cities and towns develop in a similar structure. As does our solar system. And our galaxy. And the universe as a whole That orbitin of smaller bodies around larger bodies is what makes the Universe, from the smallest of scales to the largest of scales
9:17 apparently Motorway Matt has not seen the Moss Piglets episode of South Park or watched Star Trek: Discovery. Interesting. 🤔 I'm starting to have some doubts about his engineering credentials
Single protons are hydrogen, double protons are dihydrogen, a proton with a neutron are deuterium (a hydrogen isotope), the big blobs like you called them are fluor atoms because they have 8 protons and 8 neutrons, witch mean element #8 (because 8 protons). At 8:30 it’s a tartigrade, the strongest living thing in existence. It can survive pretty much anything, harsh conditions of space (no pressure, no atmosphere, high radiations, very hot and cold), dehydrated environments, etc. 1 mega meter is 1 000 000 meters. 1 au is the distance between earth and the sun, witch is about 150 000 000 kilometers 1 parsec is a unit of distance, it is about 3,26 lightyears, one lightyear is the distance light travel in one earth year, witch is about 9.461x10^15 meters or 9,461e+15, 1 meters. 1 parsec sould be about 2,8382e+16 meters. (It’s a very big distance)
Hey RCE love your content. Watching you play always makes me want to play the same games too! It would be really helpful if you could link the games played in the video in the description too
Elements are determined by the number of protons. The number of neutrons is variable, as elements have isotopes. Various bacteria and protozoa. AU are astronomical units, or the distance from the sun to Earth's orbit. 93 million miles, or there about. Parsec stands for 'parallax second.' So if you observe an object, note it's location, and then look it again in six months, you've taken two sightings with a base of Earth's orbit. If it shifts a second of arc, that's a parsec. Or about 22 light years.
Funny thing, I am in the USA and on those scales in the early game make more sense to me in metric units because in all fields of science we use metric. It is easier for me to visual Zeta and Femto meters than 7/8th inch.
for those wondering: 'coccus' and 'bacillus' are names for bacteria that denotes what shape theyre in. 'Coccus' means 'sphere shaped' and 'bacillus' means 'rod/pill shaped'. theres also spiral shaped ones with are further split into two groups, depending on whether theyre rigid and stiff or flexible known as spirillum (rigid) and spirochete (flexible)
RCE, this game reminds me of an older game called Solar 2. You should take a peek at it as it is very similar. Doesn't start *that* small though and you don't start as a black hole (in fact you have to run away from them until later... then you eat them).
As a biologist who feels like didint learn anything about chemestry and microbiology during university, this video made me realize that I did indeed learn stuff xD thanks XD
there is a absolutely amazing size comparison video (on youtube) called "Star Size Comparison 3 ( Vortex )", which goes from below Quarks to Galaxy super clusters (and back). Really cool and contains many the x-ometers. It also has a title that massively undersells, what it is.
9:14 Tardigrades are famous for being able to survive in extreme environments. They can survive: 1 at the bottom of the sea next to lava. 2 without food for ages. And 3, In the vacuum of space! They are some of the smallest animals (,yes they’re animals,) in existence! You can find them just about anywhere!
For anyone wanting to know something more about the microscopic chemistry and biology stuff 1 Proton can also be called Hydrogen cation since it has a positive charge if we consider it an atom since the electron needed for neutral charge is not present... normal Hydrogen atom consists of a proton and an electron but Hydrogen can have its isotopes which are called Deuterium (1proton and 1 neutron in the nucleus and 1 electron in the orbitals) and Tritium (Deuterium with 1 more neutron in the nucleus) and it then goes Hydrogen-4 (for 3 neutrons in the nucleus), Hydrogen-5, Hydrogen -6 and Hydrogen-7 for an atom with 1 proton, 6 neutrons and 1 electron. Fun fact 1: Tritium is the only radioactive of the mentioned, emits a radioactive-green light but that's just alpha-rays and in such small amounts that it can't hurt humans much, therefore there are rings containing small sticks with Tritium inside Fun fact 2: Hydrogen is sometimes also called Protium Fun fact 3: the names for the isotopes also use the same principle as numbers 4 and up, starting with Hydrogen-1 (normal hydrogen), continuing with Hydrogen-2 (Deuterium), Hydrogen-3 (mentioned Tritium) and the rest was already mentioned Edit1: also the game is wrong, 1 proton and 1 neutron should be correctly called Deuterium nucleus, but I understand that the element we are talking about is still Hydrogen and that if there was Deuterium nucleus, most people would not understand what that word means Edit2: the yellow-ish thing Matt mentioned around 5:10 was a virus, more specifically bacteriophage which reproduces by sticking onto a bacteria, injecting its nucleic acid into the bacteria's one and then reprogramming the bacteria to produce more of the new nucleic acid (and genetic information) which results in the bacteria producing many many more viruses and then dying in favor of the newly generated bacteriophages. They consist of several parts, the long thin one being the tail and the kinda round one on top being the head containing the genetic information in the form of a nucleic acid, base plate which is on the other end of the tail and long thin fibers acting as legs of some sort. The virus uses the fibers to stabilize itself on the bacteria's surface, then it sticks the bottom part of the base plate on the bacteria while drilling through the surface of the bacteria and then the rest works like a syringe injecting the contents of the head into the bacteria Edit 3: Coccus is a name for any spherical or roughly spherical bacteria and Bacillus is the name for any bacteria that is in the shape of a rod Edit 3.5: Moving onto astronomical stuff: Edit 4: the megameter is just 1 000 kilometers or 1 million meters, au (or correctly written AU) stands for "Astronomical Unit" which is equal to the average distance between Earth and the Sun or more specifically 149,597,870.7 kilometers. 1 kau used in the game just stands for 1 000 AU mentioned in this edit
Trittium decays with beta decay not alpha decay, the green glow you mention is its use with phosphors to make them glow with the energy of the beta particles. Trittium doesn't glow on its own.
1 AU (Astronomical Unit) = The distance from the Sun to the Earth, or about 8 light seconds Didn't expect that to be useful knowledge. Thanks, David Braben.
A tardigrade is a cellular organism that (maybe) eats other cellular organisms, they are quite easy to find and observe, due to their slow speed and accessible habitat, which is moss on trees.
2:40 it is actually the electrons. The lates model of atoms doesn't potrayed electrons as small ball that orbit nuclues anymore. They potrayed it as area of possibility where the electrons might exist at any given time, since electrons just move that fast that they practically could be almost everywhere on the atom's surface in less then a second.
The scariest thing about this game is the amount of things that can remove mass from a black hole 🤔
Kurzgesagt recently did a video on how to destroy black holes. Worth checking out!
Tardigrade always wins

As a biologist who feels like didint learn anything about chemestry and microbiology during university, this video made me realize that I did indeed learn stuff xD thanks XD
So Matt, is a naval architect an engineer or and architect?
NO ARCHITECT THATS FORBIDDEN ARCHITECTS SUCK
there is a absolutely amazing size comparison video (on youtube) called "Star Size Comparison 3 ( Vortex )", which goes from below Quarks to Galaxy super clusters (and back). Really cool and contains many the x-ometers.
It also has a title that massively undersells, what it is.
Bro.... that video is... intoxicating.. thank you so much for referencing it. It gave me chills dude...
always fun to watch :)
9:14 Tardigrades are famous for being able to survive in extreme environments. They can survive: 1 at the bottom of the sea next to lava. 2 without food for ages. And 3, In the vacuum of space! They are some of the smallest animals (,yes they’re animals,) in existence! You can find them just about anywhere!
Bärtierchen ^^ (the german word for them)
It means "(smal, little, cute) bear animal"
Fun fact:A tardigrade can survive anything and everything
Some say those tardigrades in the black hole can still hear Matt's maniacal laughter to this day...
10x global extinction champion?
AU is an Astronomic Unit which is the distance between Earth and Sun
Mesuring planets in australians sound fun too tho 😂
If reality as we know it exists in three spacial dimensions, that must make this the first ever top-down 4D game.
11:02 that what Jackie Chan said
18:02 fucking love that they included the one true god in the game. The Flying Spaghetti Monster.
1:55 You're wrong about everything! LOL.
16:11 I will tell you what a galaxy might taste like....
Probably like a milky way..
For anyone wanting to know something more about the microscopic chemistry and biology stuff
1 Proton can also be called Hydrogen cation since it has a positive charge if we consider it an atom since the electron needed for neutral charge is not present... normal Hydrogen atom consists of a proton and an electron but Hydrogen can have its isotopes which are called Deuterium (1proton and 1 neutron in the nucleus and 1 electron in the orbitals) and Tritium (Deuterium with 1 more neutron in the nucleus) and it then goes Hydrogen-4 (for 3 neutrons in the nucleus), Hydrogen-5, Hydrogen -6 and Hydrogen-7 for an atom with 1 proton, 6 neutrons and 1 electron.
Fun fact 1: Tritium is the only radioactive of the mentioned, emits a radioactive-green light but that's just alpha-rays and in such small amounts that it can't hurt humans much, therefore there are rings containing small sticks with Tritium inside
Fun fact 2: Hydrogen is sometimes also called Protium
Fun fact 3: the names for the isotopes also use the same principle as numbers 4 and up, starting with Hydrogen-1 (normal hydrogen), continuing with Hydrogen-2 (Deuterium), Hydrogen-3 (mentioned Tritium) and the rest was already mentioned
Edit1: also the game is wrong, 1 proton and 1 neutron should be correctly called Deuterium nucleus, but I understand that the element we are talking about is still Hydrogen and that if there was Deuterium nucleus, most people would not understand what that word means
Edit2: the yellow-ish thing Matt mentioned around 5:10 was a virus, more specifically bacteriophage which reproduces by sticking onto a bacteria, injecting its nucleic acid into the bacteria's one and then reprogramming the bacteria to produce more of the new nucleic acid (and genetic information) which results in the bacteria producing many many more viruses and then dying in favor of the newly generated bacteriophages. They consist of several parts, the long thin one being the tail and the kinda round one on top being the head containing the genetic information in the form of a nucleic acid, base plate which is on the other end of the tail and long thin fibers acting as legs of some sort. The virus uses the fibers to stabilize itself on the bacteria's surface, then it sticks the bottom part of the base plate on the bacteria while drilling through the surface of the bacteria and then the rest works like a syringe injecting the contents of the head into the bacteria
Edit 3: Coccus is a name for any spherical or roughly spherical bacteria and Bacillus is the name for any bacteria that is in the shape of a rod
Edit 3.5: Moving onto astronomical stuff:
Edit 4: the megameter is just 1 000 kilometers or 1 million meters, au (or correctly written AU) stands for "Astronomical Unit" which is equal to the average distance between Earth and the Sun or more specifically 149,597,870.7 kilometers. 1 kau used in the game just stands for 1 000 AU mentioned in this edit
Trittium decays with beta decay not alpha decay, the green glow you mention is its use with phosphors to make them glow with the energy of the beta particles. Trittium doesn't glow on its own.
Even architects know tardigrades aka waterbears. Those are like the cutest thingies! And they might even survive nigh anything!
1 AU (Astronomical Unit) = The distance from the Sun to the Earth, or about 8 light seconds
Didn't expect that to be useful knowledge. Thanks, David Braben.
no its 8 Ligth minutes
was about to reply about the same, minus the time it took in lightspeed
Yes 3 quarks make protons and neutrons
A tardigrade is a cellular organism that (maybe) eats other cellular organisms, they are quite easy to find and observe, due to their slow speed and accessible habitat, which is moss on trees.
Hi, in Cityes Skiline: Create a City in the sky
as a doctor is so funny to hear an engineer talking abut cells and stuff hahaha love you dude!
AU means astronautical units.
This game seems to have been made by a biochemist, and not a physicist. Truly the architects of the hard sciences.
Bacteriophages are cool
5:51 No in recent years phage treatment has begun and these phases only attack enemy bacteria, AKA non-friendly’s to the human body
"What does a galaxy taste like?" I can confirm that it tastes like a Milky Way.
Au stands for astronomical units.
2:40 it is actually the electrons. The lates model of atoms doesn't potrayed electrons as small ball that orbit nuclues anymore. They potrayed it as area of possibility where the electrons might exist at any given time, since electrons just move that fast that they practically could be almost everywhere on the atom's surface in less then a second.
As a biologist, the first couple of minutes hurt to see and hear... It hurt bad...
1 au is the distance between the sun and the Earth
Au means astronomical unit
I wasn't expecting that great reference to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
11:03 thats a arcitect E A T. H I M
Another thing is that au stands for astronomical units which is the average distance from the earth to the sun !!!! I’m a bit of a nerd sorry
