+Dean Calaway Yes exactly. In the same way in the Elite Dangerous universe your ship can travel 1000x the speed of light without the improbability or natural physical effects that would incur in reality.
"You're more likely to die from an asteroid impact than from a shark attack" Dude, you're more likely to die from anything than from a shark attack Hell, you're more likely to die from eating a taco than from a shark attack. Sharks need to step up their game.
0:50 about the length of a blue whale. "Another thing that got forgotten was the fact that against all probability a sperm whale had suddenly been called into existence several miles above the surface of an alien planet. And since this is not a naturally tenable position for a whale, this poor innocent creature had very little time to come to terms with its identity as a whale before it then had to come to terms with not being a whale any more."
+Joshua Richardson We are almost completely powerless about earth's major forces (super volcanoes, massive scale earthquakes etc ) that are way more scary and far more likely to happen during our lifetime. We may never even get close to efficiently protect ourselves from what the vastness of space has in store.
+Fadestrider Yeah, we can't really stop earthquakes or volcanoes eruptions from happening. All we can do is try an minimize the damage for when they do happen.
Look at Mind Field for example, or Vsauce 2 lately. All 3 (V3 Included) have way WAY better quality videos than the rest of UA-cam in my opinion, so well made and professional.
0:55 Someone screwed up their units. Jake says 28,600 MPH. Text says 46,027.2 km/s. That's just...what? Those are so far apart it's crazy. ACTUAL conversion: 28,600 MPH would be about equal to 12,800 m/s or 46,000 km/h, both rounded to 3 sig-figs. Although, without rounding, you get 46,027.2 km/h...so there's your error. Just to play around with it some more, 46,027.2 km/s would convert to 1.66e8 km/h or 1.02e8 MPH. Also, it would be 15.35% the speed of light. A meteor that big going that fast would make the earth stop existing in a single piece and start existing in several thousand pieces. The moral of the story is: GET YOUR UNITS RIGHT! (You kids in school wonder why you get docked for omitting units in your answer? There's why.)
+Manabender I dind't notice that until you said something. That... That's a BIG difference. I think a meteor of that size, going that fast, would make a noticeable dent in just about ANYTHING it ran into.
+Chea Resan The only life we could send would be life that we already have on Earth, and none of the planets in our solar system that we've discovered so far are habitable by life forms from Earth without some degree of modification to the way of living on that planet. So we could send life, but unless it somehow found a planet somewhere with similar conditions to what we have on Earth, the life would die pretty quickly.
What would happen if the moon at a few miles an hour crashed into Earth? Would it maintain it's shape or would it crumble, and how so would it react? I'm almost certain everything would be killed from their two gravities pulling everything together. Say that it was just placed touching the earth somewhere in a desert, would we be able to jump in the air and stay up for longer if we were near it from it's pull? I don't know who is interrested in this?
Let me guess Jake, you've been reading Seveneves haven't you? If not, then definitely do. The first part of the book is all about catastrophic meteors entering the atmosphere. Also for those intrigued, small spoiler ahead revealing the origin of the meteors. It is revealed super early but still. . . . . . . The meteors hitting Earth are shards of the now fragmented Moon.
+Just sub to me dont ask questions Some meteorites are actually very cold when they land because they've been in the coldness of space. The outside of a meteor obviously gets very hot, but a microbe or spore could survive inside of it (in theory.)
+Just sub to me dont ask questions Panspermia is pretty stupid if you ask me. While it's a fantastic and cool idea to think about, it still doesn't answer the question of where did life come from. In fact it makes answering that question even harder because where did the life on the astroid come from?
+ilov3mus1cx3 not really, the aliens that we talk about are life forms born or grown os another planet, we were all born here (that we know of) but yea we have a alien ancestor that evolved.
I always get so frustrated when I see things like animations of how the dinosaurs became extinct, yet they show a planet with continents where they are today, whilst back then they were merged, called Pangea.
@@gagemead27 4 years late, but this is so presumptuous. Not even American, but can tell you now, Russia does NOT have 500 megaton warheads. The largest ever detonated was only 50, and after that, the project was made redundant. They got the outcome they wanted, and in fact, was only half the size of the originally intended. Russia do care about fallout, and how it can affect the land and them, despite what you read about Chernobyl. They scrapped the project after realising it was far too dangerous to make nuclear bombs like the one they did.
+Milenos We come from bacteria that had evolved over millions of years, though in a sense, yes. When a planet is born, it's essentially a big ball of lava, created from friction in the protoplanetary cluster. It cooled over time, and was struck by asteroids containing large amounts of water, which turned into earth's oceans. We can't say for certain when or which one did it, but with water, comes life. And there you have it, the real life Ark.
***** I understand that, but i mean do we come from an asteroid that hit the earth after the earth already formed. Like those giant meteor that destroyed most of life on earth multiple time in earth history.
Milenos As I said, exactly when is a bit foggy.. the bacteria was likely there before dinosaurs were eliminated, but Humans were not realized until after the meteor wiping them out. It's not a matter of "this meteor contains human bacteria" or anything like that, merely the meteor contained ambiguous bacteria that evolved differently in different climates. Looking at fossil records, humans were around a few million years after the end of the dinos, but it being from a meteor is very unlikely.
Moon Man The "meteor" that hit earth and created the moon was likely a planet the size of Mars, called Theia. It's suspected there were many more planets (some estimate as many as 24) in our solar system long ago. It is however unlikely that life came to earth in that contact between the two planets, seen as the subsequent temperatures on earth would've left it nearly impossible for single cell life or even extremophiles to survive.
A metoerite is not the only thing we should fear from space, its possible that a meteorite big enough to reach the ground could have some sort of a space disease like ebola, we could go extinct from a single pebbel carrying a horrible dissease.
Checkout the Rock Elm metorite impact near Rock Elm, WI. This impact was less obvious for geologists to spot. It was roughly 4 miles wide when it hit 450-490 million years ago. It left behind an unusual looking mix of minerals that can still be spotted on the surface at Nugget Lake Park; although the most interesting things are most likely buried well below the surface. Also, Reidite was discovered at this location. "Reidite is a very rare mineral created when zircon undergoes high pressure and temperatures. It is commonly associated with meteorite impacts."
+Stat Statakaka Because that is what his target audience understands? The target audience of this program (the Popular Science one, not Vsauce3) is the average American. Not scientists, not people from other countries. Imperial measurements is all they could relate too, having only a passing knowledge at best of metric.
Meteorite/asteroid can be as big as the planet cause earth isn't all that big compared to other planets in the solar system there just has to be a big enough sun to explode and wipe out other massive planets and cause them to collide with other planets and that would cause a massive meteorite. Remember it's space, a planet can be as big as you can imagine for all we know same with asteroids.
ultraboy222 we may notice it but we wouldnt be able to stop it. and it could of came from another solar system and cane frin there millions of years ago. things could of exploded long before we existed and earth could get the debris any tine
Jake is like the greatest Rage On! T-shirt advertisement walking! He's the reason I brought a ton of stuff from there. Just sucks that they don't have the pokemon top any more, Pokemon had to sue and ruin everyone's fun!
my whole town heard a loud boom today , like a sonic boom :/ like a firework going off, but everyone heard it. I'm trying to see what it was, what it could've been
I've been there! Seeing the shattered rock in Meteor Crater was amazing! Last time I saw solid rock shattered and pulverized like that was when I placed an 80-pound granite rock on top of a block of C4...the rock disappeared. Other rocks in the close vicinity were shattered, as I said, the parts nearest the blast were like packed flour and disintegrated on touch. The rest of the rock had shatter marks similar to a broken windshield, and I could pull it apart with my hands!
So the first 75% of the vid describes the growing sizes of asteroids and how much damage they each can do. Then you say that exploding a huge asteroid is not a good idea? Right after you describe how little damage smaller chunks make? Really?!
I added annotations with the metric conversions. I'll include them baked into the video next time!
+Vsauce3 as always, thanks for caring!
+Vsauce3 i feel like it's healthy to have a metoriod hit earth once in a while dont know why but maybe

Raze what if it wasn't close to any suns? It just floated towards us in the darkness of space. You'd only start to see it once it got past saturn
It'd be a planet, not a meteorite. And planets don't really work like meteorites/comets.....at all.

YOU REALLY SOUND LIKE BILL NYE! OMG THANK YOU FOR THE MEMORIES YOU BROGHT BACK!
I've been there! Seeing the shattered rock in Meteor Crater was amazing! Last time I saw solid rock shattered and pulverized like that was when I placed an 80-pound granite rock on top of a block of C4...the rock disappeared. Other rocks in the close vicinity were shattered, as I said, the parts nearest the blast were like packed flour and disintegrated on touch. The rest of the rock had shatter marks similar to a broken windshield, and I could pull it apart with my hands!
Wow that was the best vid ever!!!! 10 out of 10
AWSOME editing!
Awesome vid, really enjoyed it. Thanks.
So the first 75% of the vid describes the growing sizes of asteroids and how much damage they each can do. Then you say that exploding a huge asteroid is not a good idea? Right after you describe how little damage smaller chunks make? Really?!
