    edit: i changed it
    ok so this video has been out for about a week now and a lot of the comments are mad at me for making clickbait, so i’m gonna try to clear that up in one comment
    when i was writing this script a few months ago, i had just gotten recommended a bunch of ai generated clickbait bs that inspired me to make this. I put “there are no habitable exoplanets” as the title as a direct response to the titles of the other videos, which were saying stuff like “these are the most habitable exoplanets”
    this video sat on the back burner for a few months until i finally got around to publishing it, and I didn’t bother to change the title
    the title is not arguing that habitable exoplanets don’t exist. I say in the video that they probably do. If anything I should’ve added quotation marks to the title (there are no “habitable” exoplanets) to make it more in line with what i actually wanted the video to say (which was meant as a direct counter to the ai misinformation that’s everywhere)
    but I forgot to do that, and overnight this became my best performing video ever, and now i’m scared to change the title for fear that the whole thing will just die
    my goal isn’t to misinform people. I actively try to avoid clickbait as much as possible, and I research my videos for months before publishing them. When I made this title, clickbait genuinely wasn’t even on my mind, “there are no habitable exoplanets” was just my first automatic thought
    (and if you check my other videos you’ll hopefully find this is true, my other video titles are usually very simple and non-clickbait. This video is very much an outlier)
    So sorry if you feel clickbaited, but that honestly wasn’t my intention. I had no intent of making the video clickbait, and at this point i’m scared to change it because it could kill the video’s performance, and I feel as though this is an important video to get out to as many people as possible, since it’s directly countering popular misinfo
    i’m not trying to make excuses, i need to hold myself up to a higher standard so i don’t become the exact thing i’m trying to stop, and ig i’ll just remember to revise video titles in the future

      I don't think you are making excuses but you are choosing to leave a clickbait title up at this point, even if not originally, to get money despite the fact you know that this is misleading.
      You do what you want but it is disheartening to see that you care more about getting money than being honest.

      Option one: change the title & risk losing some views.

      yeah, the reality is that Venus, Mars, type planets seems to be the norm in the habitale zone. It's like earth has all the elements needed. planets detectable to us requires large amounts of work to make habitable. I have my own personal propossal that would require alot of work. it would require using asteriod dust to blanket the plants surface. This would lock in the gases that causes the runaway green house. as many rocky worlds is missing a upper surface layer like earth. if mars had this surface layer, mars would be the size of earth.

      @DarkMagicianGirl0 it really isn’t about the money for me
      if this was any other normal video i would’ve already changed it by now, even if it was getting as many views as it was. The difference with this video is that i’m trying to stop misinformation with it, so i feel like it’s more important than my other videos
      i really don’t make a lot of money from my videos yet so it’s not really a concern for me

      There's actually a GIANT void in space that's roughly 330 million light years across with only about 60 galaxies inside of it. Depending on how much you know about space, that might sound like a lot, but usually around *2000* galaxies would take up this space.
      Anyways, I bring this up because I find it really strange just how empty it is. It's almost no way a coincidence. The main theory is that this void is just a lot of other voids merged together... But the other theory is that this somehow involves alien life far more advanced than ourselves, and that they've cleared out a massive section of space for whatever reason.

  • @peaktroglodyte
    @peaktroglodyte 7 місяців тому +242

    I think the reason we haven't found any viable habitable exoplanets is simply due to the lack of data we have. We've only been observing exoplanets for a little over 3 decades, with most of those planets orbiting perilously close to their parent stars (primarily red dwarfs), and/or are Gas Giants and Super Earths/Sub-Neptunes, mainly so because they are very easy to detect. We have little data on Earth-sized exoplanets orbiting Sun-like stars because they're so much harder to detect, due to their much longer orbital periods which makes it hard to verify their existence via transit methods (which is the most common method).
    Our exoplanet catalogue will continue growing over the next couple decades with more powerful telescopes, and as telescopes become more powerful and our observational periods grow longer we will probably have more data on habitable exoplanet candidates.

    • @WildWombats
      @WildWombats 6 місяців тому +35

      People also have a huge misconception in thinking we should know everything by now. It's arrogance, or hubris, to think we already know everything. I was told by someone once that we know everything there is to know about stars and studying them further would be pointless. To me, that's blasphemous because even if we think we know it all, we should still continue to research to ensure it holds.
      So to me, the primary issue is people think we can do way more than we actually can. The reality is we base a lot of our findings on a telescope that realistically can only see most planets as no more than a few pixels on a screen along side some very limited data. Many feel we should at least have identified every planet in the milky way and know for sure whether life exists at any given area. Fact is, we can't even confirm microbial life in our own solar system much less another solar system. Now, as far as intelligent life goes, yes, we definitely should have detected something if it were out there at least within a vicinity. But that doesn't mean they're not here either. It's a bit easier to tell with intelligent life since they can create things that are unnatural you wouldn't find anywhere else, also generate heat and potentially signatures in the atmosphere would be more dominant than early life / microbial life.

      Exactly. Our very best telescopes are just at the very edge of, in the most optimal conditions, being able to just about theoretically detect an Earth-sized planet.

      @NefariousKoel 6 місяців тому +21

      Yeah, I don't see this getting mentioned enough. The data collection bias is always something to keep in mind. The two main methods used depend upon either the relative masses of the star versus the planet or the size/luminosity of the star compared to the size of the planet, along with limited orbital angles. All including the planet's orbital distance. With the technology used to find exoplanets, the available data is heavily biased towards large planets. Especially those close to the star. Which likely rules out detection of many earth-sized planets unless they're near a small red dwarf.
      I rarely see this bias mentioned, but it's an important point to keep in mind. I think habitable earth-like planets are likely to be very rare but we're also not currently able to work with a full picture due to the detection limits.

      "Even earth couldn't have supported life for most of it's existence"
      As I understand it, this is false. Earth is roughly 4.5 billion years old, and life has existed on Earth for roughly 3.8 billion years. It's true that _multicellular_ life is much younger than that, but even multicellular life has existed for roughly 800 million years. Life has existed on Earth for the vast majority of its existence (so far as we can tell, anyway).

    While there might be a habitable exoplanet out there, such truly Earth-like worlds would be VERY RARE. Even if we do find life on other planets, their environments would probably be vastly different and hostile to life from Earth. And we don't know much about planets outside our solar system. We only know about their mass, size, and distances from their parent star(s). A big issue with most "Earth 2.0's" is that most orbit M type stars. Which are not only VERY VIOLENT, but also any planet that orbits them in their habitable zone would be tidally locked, meaning one side is an endless day, and the other side is an endless night.

    As per Keple-22 b: Habitable ≠ harboring life. A planet that could support our life but doesn't yet have any of its own would be even better than one already inhabited, since there would be no problems with the way both kinds of life interact. And life as we know it doesn't need volcanic activity, as long as it has some source of minerals, such as having them contained in the ocean.
    Inhabiting a planet with deep oceans that keeps useful minerals on the bottom would be an interesting challenge. We'd have to kickstart an ecosystem by supplying floating plants with mechanically gathered fertiliser until they could sustain lifeforms that could dig through the substrate and automate that process. Or engineer plants with insanely long anchor-roots and take care of them until they grow them enough to spread.

      If you understand statistics, you’ll be able to pull a probability on the existence of life on other planets based upon randomizing sample sizes on various populations. So it can be reasonable to say that if we parse through 5000 random galaxies and look at 1000 random systems in each galaxy and 0% of those systems have life on them or are incapable of sustaining life, then you can run a statistical analysis on those results and come to the conclusion that life is not probably anywhere else. When we run any kind of study at all, ever, we never study an entire population, but we look at a sample size, hopefully a good one, and then we calculate based upon that collected sample. So if you want to be consistent, that’s how we do things

  • @pHixiq

    People also don’t take into account what part in time a planet is currently in. Remember, for the vast majority of earth’s life, she was completely uninhabitable and devoid of life. A billion years ago a hypothetical civilization could have gazed upon earth and said the exact same things we say about other planets. There was even a billion year time stretch where earth COULD support life but still had none. There were plenty of times where life was wiped out and plenty of times where it sprung up.
    Some of these planets could have been way past their prime or haven’t seen their prime. Or(which is more than likely the case), won’t have a prime at all.
    And I think this is vastly overlooked

    I would like to consider the likely sampling bias effect in all of this. The fact is that it is much easier to find larger planets, because the gravitational effects on a parent star are more obvious. It is also easier to observe larger planets that transit red dwarf stars and orbit closely. That means that the atmospheres of these planets can be observed.. There are also just many more red dwarfs than sunlike stars.

  • @nathangamble125

    Of all exoplanets we've discovered, one of the best candidates for habitability is Kepler-442b. It is has around 1.34 times Earth's radius, it is unlikely to be tidally locked, and it orbits a K-type (orange dwarf) star rather than a red dwarf. Its equilibrium temperature is estimated at 22K colder than Earth, but assuming a similar atmospheric composition, the increased greenhouse effect due to the increased size of the planet would result in a similar surface temperature.
    Of course, it is still most likely that it's not habitable. We don't have any good estimates of its mass yet (likely around double the mass of Earth, but potentially similar to Earth mass or as much as 6 times the mass of Earth), so for all we know, it could be anything from a very small gas planet, or a "super-Venus", to an ultra-dense ball of mostly iron, though a composition similar to Earth is possible.

A planet can be quite a bit warmer even farther out from its star compared to 'habitable' zone. Honestly the whole habitable zone is just an estimate based limited monkey science.

      What a vivid imagination you have, you should write a book about this concept because that's the craziest sci-fi alien "creature" idea I've ever read. But realistically how would such a "singular super entity" come into existence? Via technology? Would it be a digital or cybernetic merger? By conquest or consent or necessity or by accident? What technology would this "entity" possess? And what kind of "life" would this "entity" live? Does it sleep? Does it need food or water or just natural resources in general? If the entire planet if inhabited by this "entity" if it needs to eat, does it resort to cannibalism and eat itself? Or does it feed on the planet it lives on itself? Can this "entity" do photosyntheses like plants do? Is it plant like or bee hive like where it grows small "minions" to defend the main fleshy mass? So many questions!

    • @nimroids6587
      @nimroids6587 4 місяці тому

      @@SpinoRexy733 Those are all amazing ideas. What I tend to imagine is something that could come into existence at the extreme end of evolution. Perhaps it came about from billions of years of separate species of life slowly evolving in a direction where the need to have a simbiosis relationship with the other dominant life is more beneficial to survival than the need to compete like how it is on Earth, forming the ultimate runaway ecosystem perfectly tuned for collective survival. Or perhaps it is one highly evolved organism that began from the very beginning of life on that planet. Its source for energy would advance to bigger and bigger sources. Long structures burrowed deep into the mantle leaching thermal energy from the core. All oceans, lakes and rivers long gone, their water content used in circulation through vein like networks latticed throughout the global body. Chambers the size of continents that act as organs to regulate internal pressure and waste. Weather is generated in the body to serve the needs of transporting acids and proteins through out directed channels. Lightning bolts firing between massive neuron analogs and elsewhere in the body for energy transfer. And an external envelope that can harvest massive amounts of energy from the planets host star (or stars). It would have systems that can break down and sort material arriving from space. I imagine it would be sentient, but not in the traditional idea of self awareness, but in the sense that It would have to be processing massive amounts of information on a scale so large that rather than having thoughts and decisions, it’s “brain” layer would send signals to a nervous system for its body to function just like any animal, as well as help in guiding its evolution in an “informed” way. I also think it would have to be able to produce a complex network of defense mechanisms analogous to things like white blood cells and beneficial bacteria. And its exterior would need to be able to protect the body, and may be topped with a regulated external upper atmosphere film composed of the densest gases to help protect from harmful rays and cellular destruction. Hell, maybe it can take advantage of it’s gravity and orbit to have feelers like antenna that let the body react to solar weather or take advantage of emissions from other planets passing at the closest point in orbit, even though still millions of miles away, something this developed would find a way to exploit it. I believe that if humanity discovers one of these types of worlds there would be no reasonable way to attempt to directly land on it, and it would be incredibly dangerous to be anywhere in its body because of rapid massive respiratory pressure shifts, fluctuating air composition and extreme wind speeds, and huge amounts of raw electricity arcs constantly jumping between conductive surfaces through extreme atmospheric weather mediums, and there’s also bodily acids to worry about. And on top of that, we can’t be sure how the body would react to us being there. Would it ignore us? Or will it recognize our presence as a foreign object and seek to quickly destroy us? I’m really glad that you took interest in my idea. I’ve been thinking for a while about writing a story about the concept. I have one idea with a focus on how humanity would react to the discovery, and another idea of a solo traveler detailing his observations of the world and his emerging philosophical questions of possibility.
