@@neo-filthyfrank1347 It's an emotion like any other and it shows an aesthetical appreciation for something, don't be a dick, it's just that the opening is emotional to me. I'm gonna judge the claims presented by the series by what they are. The most problematic ones were the claims about history, like with Hypathia, and with the Library of Alexandria, or claims about the history of thought and knowledge.
Dude if this was all you ever did on this channel ever again I think a lot of us would be fine with that. These videos are so awesome. This is single-handedly my favorite subject to discuss.
I love that this is exploring “inhospitable” worlds. I always wonder if we’re missing signs of life by looking for earth like planets. I don’t have a solution lol, just always wondered
People have wondered about this. It's also difficult to understand the possibilities of hypothetical biochemistries unlike that of Earth's. But carbon really seems to be the best basic compound for life and water is gonna be typically the best solvent (unless if the temperature is such that it completely freezes or evaporates), and oxygen is a good oxidant agent that is common enough in the universe. Although there are elements that you can swap without much of a problem (copper vs Iron in the blood, typical example). I think biochemistries that are different from ours are still possible, but they will be less likely. What is more likely that it will change (by far) is how the basic compounds of life are structured.
I love the theories about life on the moons of Jupiter because of this concern exactly. Using the tidal forces of Jupiter's gravity, one of its moons could have liquid water beneath the ice due to friction from constant pushing and pulling of the icy surface.
Actually makes sense, for me, I’ve always wondered if there could be life OUTSIDE a planet. Like, maybe a habitable planet that’s also near an asteroid belt, with the asteroids being the only hope for complex life to live. Maybe they could store oxygen, energy, and other vital things in special sacs? Idk, I’m not a NASA agent or anything, but it’s still an interesting concept.
What I did like about this project is that the major planets all had multiple biomes within them even though each planet had a specific "theme" to them.
@@neo-filthyfrank1347 I said it because a lot of speculative biology or sci-fi in general have a bad tendency to to only focus on one biome or make the entire planet a single biome. I am aware of the logic. also, nice profile name :)
@@Surkk2960 That seems far more likely in more mainstream instances of these topics though, and those instances are so low IQ and poorly executed that they pretty much aren't even worth discussing anyway.
I would love to see an episode or two on “Hamster's Paradise” by Tribbetherium. It's a project that's heavily inspired by Serina, albeit with hamsters (obviously) instead of canaries. And the creatures and world-building are every bit as detailed as its inspiration, even if the writer does enjoy making frequent pop culture references.
Pov: you're an unfortunate herbivore that got caught in the open by a group of harmsters, with the leader having had a particularly bad day (they are going to torture you to death.)
Oh yes. Just try not to get lost. The lore spans the whole history of the universe and describes galactic society planet by planet. Every few years I get interested again, and every. single. time, there's something you didn't think to explore before.
@@Trans4mers84561 As a contributor of the Orion's Arm Universe Project, watch out for the old outdated content. Those are no longer canon, but unfortunately, we do not have the manpower to fix them. Although if you only stick to speculative lifeforms you should be mostly fine, I believe.
Reaaaaly cool project!!! Ondriel has got to be my favorite! Though in general i loved the amount of diversity in photosynthesizing organisms! You don't see that a lot! As always thanks for shedding a spotlight on such a cool project!
Could you do a segment on the biology of H.G. Wells' work? "The Time Machine" and "War of the Worlds" both have lifeforms that are incredibly foreign and are well thought out.
You should totally do a video on the various planets in the Cosmere. It's the setting in which many of Brandon Sandersons fantasy books take place in, giving you ecosystems that have not only been affected by their alien situations (for example, a planet that has a superstorm constantly circling the globe, and another that's been pushed out of its orbit) but the mystical elements that are also at play
@@neo-filthyfrank1347 The way they work though is almost more science fiction and fantasy, a part of the world and nature that we simply don't have in our on world. Sanderson is known for his "hard magic systems" or supernatural elements that have strict rules on how they operate, and as long as we don't go into Shadesmar it would probably still feel closer to science fiction than fantasy
@@tristandukes5548 Yeah but fantasy stuff is often just used to justify juvenile ideas anyway, and just breaking reality in an otherwise normal setting almost always ruins the flavor of the work.
@@neo-filthyfrank1347 I think your experience with fantasy must be severely limited if that's your take away. Sure there is plenty of middle-grade fantasy stories, but I've seen the genre, and the fantastic used to explore very interesting ideas as well as being woven beautiful into the world building
@@tristandukes5548 From what I've seen the more stereotypical elements of fantasy have absolutely hideous aesthetics totally devoid of the reachable wonder and awe sci-fi can achieve.
Wow! I didn’t expect starfeildhouse to be featured on curious archive as well. Everything in this video I seen already a few months ago and trust me the guy is amazing
The animals of Ondriel are incredible. Those giant filter feeders in the algae-rich layer remind me of those microscopic stentors ("trumpet animalcules") but on a macroscopic scale. I also really like how the Wind Spears offer an electric take on extremophile lifeforms. The following planets Terminus and Whiterain has such an awe inspiring surrealist vibe too, with it's lifeforms resembling bizarre iterations of Terran marine lifeforms living on land, both mobile and sessile. If Charlotte Veldhuizen happens to chance upon my comment, just know you've speculated some very cool stuff for this project! :D
Yeah the dish trees are pretty novel as well. It's interesting how biology can take many different directions and those can give a world completely different aesthetic flavors.
i watch youtube minimized while i work, but its so hard with this channel cause im always like "oh that sounds so cool!" and then im opening the window to see the art haha
Amazing artwork! Ondriel's floating gargantuan lilies, Spon's 'bug-eyed' bacterial colony trees and Karashma's dish trees really stood out to me. One of my favourite pastimes was daydreaming about this sort of thing, i.e. what life may look like in non-Earth like settings. For all we know, if life exists elsewhere it may be nothing like what we've witnessed on earth, and it may not even exist on another earth-like planet but rather a truly unexpected place. Kudos to the imaginative author and wonderfully immersive narration as always.
If we ever manage to travel the stars we will witness life very similar to Earth life, but we will also encounter life that will likely force the human race to redefine our definition of life. - unkown.

Hail to Curious archive for these videos! Im 100% sure there is life out there in the vastness of space. Im also sure its wonderful, mysterious, and very beautiful. I hope we will see some sort of indication from Webb, that planets might be very life friendly.

This video made me think of Roshar (Stormlight Archive). Maybe you should give it a try. It's not fully scientific, there's some magic system involved, but it has a really interesting ecosystem.
The nuance of how life can be on extreme conditions is always rooted in one first principle though: how did those molecules begin. The reason why we seek out earth-like planets is because those conditions are very conducive to easy and gentle fast interaction of click-chemistry biomolecules. It isn't to arbitrarily match our own conditions out of selfishness or anthropic principle, but rather optimum conditions for information theory
Hats off to Curious Archive for going on these dangerous expeditions to hostile worlds. Your work does not go unnoticed.
Only the legendary Cameraman could take such a dangerous expeditions to hostile worlds
Dude needs a raise at his work
Lol
Get this man a raise
@Jungle Clutter he should sit down and have a cup of tea with some birrin or something
