      Personally I don't think there is a paradox. I'm don't know if there is or is not life out there but I do know despite what a lot people believe we are very limited on what we are able to see out in space. With our current technology looking for life in other parts of space would be like looking for dust mites in a dark room with nothing but a candle.

    • @bobflendorg1064

      It's certainly another great filter to add to the Fermi Paradox. It would decrease the number of available star sytems for life to evolve. If this is a common occurrence for galaxies, intelligent life might be limited to stars in the outer bands of galaxies.

      This is my personal guess, but I would say, given where we are galaxy-wise and that we do not register any extinction event from 3.5 million years ago (the nearest to it is the Pliocene-Pleistocene boundary extinction, and that was 2 million years ago), any potential life in the Milky Way further away from the galactic core - or one not as far, but better shielded by a lucky combination of nebulae, dust clouds, etc. at the time, could still make it past.
      We did, and there is nothing specifically unique about the Solar System (from astronomical point of view). I would say that events like the subject of this video would still preclude any multicellular life within the core of the galaxy - as if the large concentration of young, bright stars wasn't enough.

    From what we currently know about about the history of the earth, there’s no major events beside our ancestors starting to use stone tools. Given the scale of such an event one would believe that it would mass extinction but considering the lack of such an event I’d be lead to believe that this cosmic event may have been less powerful than we believe.

    Good vid. Looks like you're getting ready for boot camp. It seems like you can call the excretion disk a collection bin. Collecting the left over bits of the Kamikaze objects that are diving into the black hole. All these bit are very hot and energetic, coming from the inside of stars and are held in place by gravity. When the energy level of the excretion disk reaches and then passes the energy level of it's gravity then Boom the disk experiences a nova like explosion and the jets come out and travel in the path of the least resistance which, fortunately for us is north and south and away from us. The really nice thing about this is as the mass of the black hole increases by the material that actually gets to it there is a corresponding increase in gravity exerted on the excretion disk, which means that the excretion disk will have to collect a larger amount of material before the jest will blow again.

    well i know its been said that a period of rapid enviromental change was also a key thing that drove our evolution.
    that having to adapt to freeze/fry flood/drought conditions that came on and went on in a geologically short time, it might be worth looking to see if it lines up with this eruption.
    maybe the rays of this CME played havok with the weather baking and cooling the earth in sudden shifts. i dunno if they ever isolated a cause for it.

      scott miller interesting idea. i wonder how this affects our galaxy in long term ways rather than just killing everything right away. i wonder what it does in the long run. also it would make sense why we don’t come in contact with much alien life ever because maybe those blasts killed off all the alien races. but maybe not all of them. i wonder if the only way to survive this is if we somehow could become essentially like cyborgs/robots where radiation wouldn’t destroy our cells anymore. also or imagine we could harness the gamma rays when they start to hit us, free energy, like some sort of solar panel grid around our entire atmosphere except it isn’t for solar light but for the gamma rays. also it would be good to create some sort of artificial atmosphere for the time this comes if that’s possible. our atmosphere filters out almost all UV light i wonder if we could create one that would filter Gamma Ray light

      @@orianthikoriani8073 i imagine you could create a sail to deply that could mitigate cosmic rays or the rays of our sun to varying degrees even.
      might even be required in the future for long term survival.
      i think its also been proposed that you could do this with micro satellites that would deploy in high orbits. and deploy when needed.
      long as we have enough time to develop the tech but i think we have the general know how and ability it is question of need and cost and like any big science thing this stuff costs.
      and money seems to go in a dozen other areas but maybe where we should be focusing our concerns.
      but we got super volcanoes and other stuff closer to home that could be equally as dangerous and our poles may be fliping they not sure, but if they do over the next few 100s years our magnetic shield is going to weaken and the earth will get baked with all the rays our sun or our SMBH doing it. humans going into interesting times on many fronts.

      exactly. this is the issue with visiting other galaxies. alien races probably should never visit other galaxies because there’s no telling if the galaxy is active by the time they get there. from their galaxy it may seem like a lifeless one but once they arrive it may be a beaming quasar and they become eradicated . the best way to solve this is maybe sending like Droid Aircraft to investigate galaxies and send Data back.

    This looks like one of those gamma ray bursts that could theoretically sterilize the solar system if they happened to be precisely lined up with us, but aren't. The fact that we are out in a spiral arm almost perpendicular to the jets of Sagittarius A* is a really nice neighborhood, I guess. The fact that a substantial flare happened 3.5 million years ago with no obvious mass extinction sounds like really good news for life on Earth. If the Milky Way had two supermassive black holes and one had a spin axis at right angles to the primary one, that might be a lot more scary. Still, good research. As usual, thank you Anton for telling us about it.

    It only makes sense that activity around super massive black holes modulates periodically and occasionally catastrophically. Certainly when massive black holes have been pulled into a supermassive black hole there is such a sudden catastrophic increase in energy going into the jets.

    It would have to be a really quick gamma ray burst to make that kind of fine detail so I am glad you referred to the distance of Sag. A galaxy from the Milky Way. Something like a space-time ripple charged by gamma rays could not account for rearranging molecules as it's platform exists in 4 dimensions but an ionized gas can be manipulated by other ions that would exist at the tapering of spaghettification when condensed energy is finally released by withstanding coils in the neutrino field and it has to be accounted in every form of our current model, so likely this process is feeding black holes with mass over time and the original identities of the current cores are like 1s and 0s (and 2s apparently) in the quantum computer of the primordial universe.

    Sorry, I have to cite Newton here - 1. How do you have bubbles directly on the up/down axis of a big black hole? 2. Conservation of energy for both the black hole and the bubbles -means that energy must have gone somewhere. What we have is something that looks like a gigantic pacifier, which should date for time and distance consistently with the Large Bang event. If not, that's not the answer.
