      We are so used to seeing the edge and knowing where it is, but we lose scope with scale because the edge is less defined. I start forgetting distances after our solar system just because in my perspective, they're either too big to see both sides, or you're far enough away to see both sides but now too far to use smaller objects for reference. The universe is the extreme but it goes on forever, and if it doesn't, I will never know, or I'll die very quickly, so it doesn't matter much either way.

    While the parsec was originally used incorrectly in Star Wars, it ended up being corrected and added a lot to the universe. In Star Wars, hyperspace lanes are created to travel quickly from one place to another without crashing into planets or stars. That means that traveling from one place to another in fewer parsecs than was normal meant not following the hyoerspace lane and risking crashing into something. Different ships travel at different speeds, but if you're following the hyperspace lane you all travel the same distance. That's why Han Solo's shorter parsec run was so impressive. Especially because he did it in a particularly dangerous place.

    In Star Wars Han Solo uses the Parsec as a unit of distance, not time. The Solo movie explains why.
    That is, the Kessel Run was a hyperspace course which had no established lane (Kessel was a planet, hence the "Kessel Run"), because of different hazards, like black holes or space monsters, and some travelers would make detours to reach the destination, so they would make that run in different distances. Han Solo used a special fuel to escape a black hole and a monster, therefore he made the shortest distance by travelling faster and without detours.

    The thing that keeps me up at night is our age prediction of the universe is only accurate if our expansion theory of the universe is accurate. And our current theory is that the universe is nearly 14 billion years old but we have only been studying the expansion for less than 100 years. Meaning our theories of expansion and age of the universe could be unfathomably inaccurate. The slightest change in expansion speed could throw our numbers off by a massive margine. For all we know space time could be so warped that we observe an illusion of the universe expanding. Who knows! Doesn't stop me losing sleep because of how badly I wish I knew!

    In Star Wars their ships all travel at the same speed, their navigation system determines how fast they make it to their destination, as they have to avoid obstacles along the way. So Han says they made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs because he's talking up the Falcon's navigation system, not how fast his ship is. Other ships would take much longer, as their navigation systems would swing them much wider to avoid black holes and other objects in space rather than being able to plot a course closer to them.

    About the Star Wars thing, the 'apologetic' for it is that all vessels travel at the same speed, the speed of light (making 'the jump to lightspeed'), and all that matters in terms of travel time is how good your navigational computer is at calculating the route to be as close to objects as possible without _hitting_ anything (especially _dangerous_ things like supernovae or black holes). As such, what makes the Millennium Falcon a 'fast ship' is that it can cut corners better than other ships, and thus the _actual_ distance travelled _by_ the ship was smaller than that of other ships.
    Not that they explained this in the movie, and it sounds like a post-hoc rationalization to me.

The last thing your would be passengers want to hear is that you intend to go anywhere near black holes. It was a blatant writer error which was later explained away in a more blatant way. The thing I just hate about SW is how it simply refuses to own its mistakes, and the creators (and the fans for that matter) sweat their arses off to try to explain all of it's errors because it surely has to be perfect.

      ​@@dustingaethje1332 You're thinking of 'escaping' the gravitational pull, but that's not the case by any stretch. As I said, if you need to escape the gravitational pull, you've already screwed up your trajectory.
      Not to mention that the point where 'not even light can escape' is called the event horizon of a black hole. If you reach that, speed won't help you, cause you've been spaghettified and basically reduced to your primary elements from the insane forces.
      When traveling around black holes, speed isn't the key component. Navigation is. Finding the sweet spots where not only can you avoid being pulled into a black hole, but can actually utilize their gravitational force to slingshot yourself to even higher speeds. Of course, higher speeds allow for tighter trajectories, but the key problem with the Kessel run is that you're going through an area of intense gravitational disturbance and numerous black holes all around. Your speed is secondary, what really matters is charting an optimal route, and this is one of the Falcon's major advantages. It has maybe the single best navigational computer in the entire galaxy, and is capable of charting routes unknown to everyone else.
      The Falcon also has a 0.5 rated Hyper drive (The most advanced Imperial ships have a 1.0 rating, the lower the better), so when in hyperspeed, it is basically impossible to catch. But you don't do the Kessel run on hyperspeed, and the Falcon's sublight thrusters are nothing exceptional. So back to my original point: speed is not the point here.

    As far as I know, in Starwars, all Hyperdrives have the same speed, as they not so much work via acceleration but instead, they fling you into a parallel universe, where travel works differently (somehow, I'm not an expert by any means). As you travel much faster than you can steer, you need a computer to calculate your route. So in terms of speed it boils down to: 1.) How fast can calculate your route (when can you start) 2.) How precise your route is ( how much clearance between you and obstacles and thus how much distance). In Starwars, a race is a battle of computing power and map data. The shorter your route, the faster you arrive as all warp drives give you the same speed.

    Actually Star Wars does use the Parsec term correctly, because they arent talking about a measure of time, they are talking about a distance. With 12 parsecs being the shortest route anyone has ever taken because it goes through extremely dangerous territory that everyone else goes around

  • @lilalmonds4595
    @lilalmonds4595 2 роки тому

    Parsec was meant as a measure of distance, even specified in the script, Han Solo doing it in less parsecs was a result of the millennium falcons engines being able to fly much closer to the black holes and other (alien made) gravitational anomalies, a shortcut, which by proxy allowed him to get to wherever faster

    10:13 fun fact: novelist Ann C. Crispin gave us an explanation of the parsecs quip, in her Solo trilogy. The boast wasn't (only) about speed, but about the route a skilled pilot could take, and going close to some space-warping black holes along the way would allow Han (and others) to make the Kessel Run faster than the norm. Even in space, one cannot always travel in straight lines. 🤓

    Actually I'd like to point out something, it's true that the universe is 14 billion years old, and it's expansion is suggested that effects lights travel too, by expanding due to dark energy the same light (always at 300000km/s) due to space expansion travels a longer distance even if at the same speed, this is what astro physics is about right now, that's why the observable universe goes for 93 billion light years, even if light has just travelled 14 billion in it's exact space time. Hopefully i was clear, I'm Italian and I'm 17 so can't really be that precise 😂

    About the misuse of parsecs in Star Wars, they are actually correct. The so called "Kessel run" is through a dense nebulae. The smugglers were using it as it was making them undetectable. The kessel run was calculated in parsecs travelled, meaning that if you did the kessel run in 20 parsecs, then this was the total distance travelled in order to go from one end to the other. They were not travelling in straight line so in order to avoid denser pockets of gas inside the nebulae and other magnetic storms they had to make several course changes, sometimes adding several parsecs to their trip. The millenium falcon did in just less than 13 parsecs which implies that they used a more direct route with higher risks. But they are correct, in star wars, they never intended to have parsecs mixed with speed, as it always meant that it was simply the distance travelled. This is just a mis-interpretration of a poorly writen scene, that's all.

    You really wouldn't want to attempt flying through a gas giant, while that is correct that it is unlikely they have a defined surface like earth or other rocky bodies, as you descend into the atmosphere the density and pressure increases by orders of magnitude high than anything we could replicate here on earth. Essentially the extreme density of the matter that makes up the innermost layers of the gas giants is so dense, and under so much pressure (not to mention, hot! Hotter than the surface of the sun hot!) that the state of matter under these pressures would be greater in density than any solid we have ever observed (short of neutron degenerate matter that makes up neutron stars, and magnetars). So yes, technically there is no solid surface, but the state of matter at lower altitudes is so dense that it would surpass the hardness of the crust of earth by a significant degree. One theory hypothesizes the presence of metallic hydrogen. Read about that, it's pretty wild stuff.

    the parsec quote from star wars has to do with how hyperspace works there are gravity shadows left by black holes and stars that people in universe have to avoid the kessel run is unique because some aliens put a bunch of black holes next to each other making it difficult to navigate han solo found a path through the black holes completing the run without moving through as much space as he didn't have to go around. the kessel run isn't about speed but the path you take.

    Well seeing as they warp jump in Star Wars and have to calculate the proper path from point A to point B it makes perfect sense that he was able to make the kessel run in "12 parsecs" because he's not talking about time.. he's talking about the distance he had to travel. Ship computers plotted courses for warp jumps based on everything that was in between the starting point and destination. If no calculations are made, you run the risk of slamming into a planet, a star, or any other object along the path. So his ship's computer was able to plot a much shorter path than other ships. It's like taking a different road to drive on. One fork in the road will take you to the next city at a total distance of 15 miles travelled, however if you take back roads, you could cut that distance down to 12 miles instead.

    The millennium falcon making what ever run in 12 parsect was more of a statement of how powerful the engines are that it can get closer to the black hole cluster wothout being pulled in. Thus making the run in a shorter distance than other ships. It is an easy mistake to make if you aren't a starwars nerd. At first I thought the same but they are using the term correctly.

    You should pay more attention to the scene where Han Solo flies the Kessel run. He did in fact complete the Kessel run in 12 parsecs. The Kessel run is 18 parsecs. How did he do that? His navigator, L3-37 (leet), took the ship through a debris field and cut 6 parsecs off the course. The old cut through a back alley trick. No one else was insane enough to try that.
