This answers so much of the things I think about, and it does so in a graphic format where I can actually imagine the scales of things I never could before. Thank you for this video, Jason Kendall!
    Oh, and by the way, this was done in 2018. We have since taken an actual picture of the SMBH in the center of our galaxy, or at least the accretion disk that proves Einstein's theory about black holes.

    This is wonderful to watch...feels like I'm in school at my favorite class with my best teacher!
    I recall the 8 year old me being asked what I wanted to be when i grew up ,by my grade 3 teacher
    "A scientist"...was my reply without hesitation.
    That never happened, but here I am ,62 years later, just as in awe now as i was then.
    Thank you so much for giving this old man such an enjoyable viewing experience!

    • @dima76

      What do you mean "it never happened"? Being a SCIENTIST is about being TRUE, being OPEN, being brutally FACTUAL, and - obviously - being CURIOUS! NOT about getting degrees, writing papers and making academic careers - all that is so so secondary! What is living if not doing RESEARCH? I bet you are smarter and practically more useful and helpful than 99% of the new University Graduates in WHATEVER field : ))
      Sounded to me like you kept true to the essence of what BEING the scientist IS, and at 70 years old still have the sense of awe and wonder when learning new things about the Universe AND a sense of simple, humble human appreciation to find the few minutes for thanking the author - YOU ARE a SCIENTIST, SIR, pure and simple, let all these diploma-waving ignoramuses know! :))

      That’s great! These videos weren’t made with 12-year-olds in mind. But if she is into them, and really likes talking about them, find all the STEM resources you can and get them to her. School resources won’t be enough. I took college classes proper in 8th grade and was fully enrolled at university before 9th grade. I graduated high school with half a computer science major done. I ended up with an excellent career. I still went to and finished high school, I just had permission from the high school to take classes that were not currently offered. If she is great at math, then have her follow the path of my mother who dropped out of high school to go to college and become the youngest graduate student at Harvard at 19.

    2:07 Questions about "1) Redshift":
    1. All celestial bodies exibiting redshift, and thus moving away (from our perspective), are bodies situated milions/billions of lightyears away. Thus the redshift we see today happened millions/billions of years ago. Thus the observation we make is no longer up-to-date by millions of years. Are we sure they are still redshifting or are they blueshifting bouncing back, but that light has not traveled back reaching us yet?
    2. If our perspective is not the center of where celestial objects are redshifting from, moving away from us, is it logical to expect the same redshift movement everywhere? That would be rather a coincidence.

      I've only been a visitor, but I have gotten to see the night sky from the summits of Mauna Kea and Halealala, both views were so dark and clear that it took me more than an hour to re adjust to the constellations, because for the most part, I could barely tell which one I was seeing. There were so many more stars visible, and they appeared so much more uniform in brightness that I struggled to find even the most obvious landmarks otber than the Milky Way.

    Great lecture series, I really appreciate it. It's helping me big-time to place individual knowledge into a broader picture, meanwhile I'm getting the occasional revelation, such as the spiral arms of a galaxy not being spirals at all really, but are instead individual blobs of gas and stars in their individual orbits that are currently lining up to show us a spiral as we take a snapshot. The spiral is a lie.
    I found a fun little blooper at 3:14:40 as G350.1-0.3 was called a "galaxy emitting cluster", hehe.

      Thanks for the blooper find. When I get around to remastering this video, I'm sure I'll fix that.
      And actually, the spiral isn't a "lie", it is what we see if you aggregate the view. That is similar to saying that a cloud in the sky is a lie because it's an aggregate of water droplets. Or a dog is a lie because it's really a collection of diverse cells, most of which are non-dog bacteria.

    • @JasonKendallAstronomer
      @JasonKendallAstronomer  11 місяців тому +1

      Cosmology is the study of the entire universe. It used to be the purview of religions, which tried to explain Where It All Came From. But now, we understand so much more. It is now a precision science. Religions still give each their own human-centric interpretation of “Why Was This Made For Me”, and “What Is It All For”? Science seeks to understand the reasons for the natural phenomena that are in abundance. We now have the tools to understand how the universe has changed and grown from the very earliest times. Scientists debate and research the boundary points of knowledge, not resting on or aiming to reinforce one final story, in the manner of a religion. The goal of science is to offer explanations to what’s observed, and see if they fit and if they fruitfully lead to more questions.

    Glad I wont be around when the Milkyway and Andromeda merge. I would die of shame of its new name.

    One quibble - "you can see the sky as it was MEANT to be seen." It wasn't "meant" to be seen. It just is.

    3 h 3 min: What if light is dark matter? 23 % sounds like the 23 % Helium we (the Universe) have fused into light and energy (heat) already at the moment.
    Light does some fast and "bending" stuff to at least itself - why than not to space an matter?
    In (Galaxy) Centers or Spiral Arms there is plenty "more" light around making things.

    Describing galaxy rotation reminds of that 80's song: "You spin me right round baby, like a record baby..."
    Unfortunately I don't think not of that era would get the rotating record analogy. *shrugs*

    The merge of the Milky Way and Andromeda isn't "long after the Sun extinguishes". It will happen at about the same time.

      Andromeda is closing at c/1000, so it makes for an easy calculation….if you use light years, and not the dreadful parsec.

    I admire and apriciate the plead for change.
    But then you know....
    A calmness settles over you and then suddenly Elon goes supernova implodes back on himself... Only to eventually vapour, radiate into entropy.
    I'm wish I'd still had fate in mankind overcoming the discrepancy between their theoretical best odds and their practice. Though we are strong when the masses unity and God is dead, we are moving towards more individual, we are confused and may fear the future challenge which causes a vulnerability towards populism, lack of optimal rational change collectively in the right direction... But we are in motion and with increased velocity. The energy needed to / time = the apple on tree - out of reach moving away.
    Unless AI comes up with a backup plan to save the day. But if I were AI and would try to come up with ways to improve the conditions for earth to host life...
    Uhhhh ups.

    Uh no. The sun only makes it 1% of the way around in that time. You have made an error.

    Each stars has their own god/jesus who went down to their Earths to teach inhabitants😂
    Jokes aside, can we say that the observable universe is filled with other humans, given that physics applies everywhere else in the universe?

    • @JasonKendallAstronomer

      One can always say that, but when dealing with it as a scientist might, one must always gather evidence to support an extraordinary hypothesis.

      Famous science fiction, notably Star Trek, have a theory of convergent evolution to explain why all of the aliens look human/humanoid.
      It was a little handwaved because they couldn't make good looking ALIEN aliens back then.
      You may also be interested in Steven wolfram's computational physics research, where the evidence is pointing to physics being this way because we observe them this way, and if you get far enough away physics may actually work differently.
      Just some food for thought.
      Cheers!
