With a new localized voiceover and no way to switch to the original. Maybe it wouldn't be available at all, if those people responsible for TV decide that other content would be better at making their dumb target audience watch their ads. And I would have to watch this at a specific single point in time or miss it.
I literally came to the comments to say the opposite. I enjoy these videos, but the narration was terrible on this one. The narration on all the others was an interesting commentary on what was happening. The narration on this one began with the stuff about the uniqueness of life being an error when it is actually just chemistry (what a stupid contrast to draw, and DNA is pretty unique. Nothing like it exists anywhere outside of life). Then we get to the stupid stuff about "you will probably be surprised to find out that it is sugar" which made me come down to comment. We are not 3 minutes in yet, but if the narration continues to be this stupid I will have to start watching these videos with the sound muted.
Sometimes I wonder if a personal hero would've liked something created after they passed away. [Ex. would Disney have liked the movie Frozen?] But sometimes nobody has to wonder, like with this series it's obvious: Carl Sagan would've loved it. Greet work guys. = )
Agreed, this is absolutely Sagan's style of content. Easily one of my favorite UA-cam series that I've ever seen, and I've seen a probably unhealthy amount of UA-cam.
@@saturnsounds8063 Thank you, and omg I can understand why he felt that way, because I got choked up writing that comment every time I thought about Sagan watching Hank's show and realizing it's exactly what he would've wanted.. 😂
Walt would be turning over in his grave at the cesspool of filth that Disney has turned into with child grooming, pedophilia and satanic movies created under his name.
Huh, I came to the comments expecting to find a bunch of people who think they understand entropy better than they really do trying to argue with you about the relationship between life, energy, and randomness. But no! This channel has a pretty chill community :)
But the Universe couldn't have made evolution happen from nothing because the beginning of life would decrease entropy. Since I don't understand how that would work it clearly is my super specific God who made everything by speaking magic universe creating words. (Sarcasm intended)
*"They are still surviving on that stored energy originally flung out from* _two atoms_ *fusing in the core of the sun"* That really gives you prospective.
not to be pedantic _but_ .... that energy was technically expended in the first photosynthetic reaction that the photon participated in. 'stored' energy is just a chemical change in stability.
@@alveolate I dont get what your trying to say... So you think the energy came from some other place? Not matter how many reactions or chemical changes occur the point is the same.

I love this channel and I love the way Hank narrates too. I feel like this should be a planetarium show or an IMAX documentary. But I'd settle for a feature length documentary or limited series haha.
Another amazing, hypnotic, wondrous journey to the Microcosmos! Schrodinger once said, "Life extracts negative entropy from its environment.". (1944 - "What is Life?")
there are subjects which sound interesting on a video level but become really tedious to actually study. ive heard that microbiology is one of the more interesting subjects however.
Did anyone else here grow up with Gaylord Johnson’s book “Hunting With the Microscope”? I no longer have my childhood scope, but I still have the book! Full of charming drawings, it gave me my first interest in the world of little creatures.
The shot of the Oscillatoria at 1:47 was absolutely amazing. It's a shot of something incredibly small, yet it seems to be on a scale much larger than us. When you think about all the proteins composed of 1000's of molecules all interacting with one another in that cell, you realize just how massive life really is.
These videos complete that unfulfilled part of me. I think I would've been a happier individual if I were a scientist: microbiologist or botanist. Anyway, thank you so much yet another super-edifying and interesting video.
The more I watch these, the more adorable I find these little creatures. I'm gonna have to watch this one again because the whole time I was struggling between listening properly and going "omg look at that! And that! Wow!"
I don't know any other science channel right now that's as successful in coupling its theme with an artistic vision for driving the content. Narration, sound selection, presentation and direction all blend together in the most agreeable way. Thanks for that effort :)
These are not the type of videos that I can just watch in a hurry on the bus or with breakfast, these videos need to be savored like the wonder they are. I almost ritualize them at this point, but they really feel special to me.
It felt like the point of the video (at least the first few minutes) was to invoke emotions of awe and amazement rather than to be informative. If what you show is awe inspiring and amazing, there is no need for that.
Life is a fine balance between order and randomness. Too little order and we have chaos, too much order and we have crystals. It is the old dichotomy between soldiers and saints, innovation and conservatism, stasis and change. You are going pretty deep with this one.

Life is a so wonderful miracle and it’s to see all these dead planets, unable to begin the cycle or no more able to sustain it. Like cosmos microcosmos carries around this sens of sadness in the middle of wonder. All my life, i was very sensible to this feeling and it affects me deeply.
Prigogine's notion of life as dissipative structure has been around since the 70's, and Schodinger used negentropy to explain "what is life" thirty years before that, so it's fascinating to see their ideas creeping into the mainstream. JttM, you guys have done a fantastic job of encapsulating this conception of life in a way that is both accessible and profound.
I don't know if I'm the only one getting constant mindblown moments watching these videos having to stop to just let my brain swallow the meaning of it all... "surviving on that stored energy originally flung out from 2 atoms fusing in the core of the sun..." OMFG! the amount of variables to keep in your head to fathom the complexity of all of it... Anyway, thanks for all these videos, I'll be sharing them with everyone haha
I believe the 100x refers to an area governed by lens physics, and there's conversion equations necessary to find a linear measurement inside that 100x. Maybe a slide jockey develops an intuitive feel for it after years of practice. In any case, what you describe is on every map that's worth looking at, and it would be a welcome addition here.
Best channel I encountered in years. Also, as a chemist, i couldn't agree with you more. Already we can synthetize complex macromolecular objects and even proto-machines. Sometime in the next decades we will learn how to produce synthetic "organelles", then later synthetic nuclei with genetic information written in a new molecular laguage; and the circle of life through chemistry will be complete, started by Friedrich Wöhler in 1828 when he transformed ammonium cyanate that is an inorganic ionic salt into urea, a natural product of life.
Masterfully presented-exactly the kinds of things I think about when peering into my microscope at these tiny blind, deaf and dumb, relentlessly energetic creatures..."and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
Once I saw the thumbnail, I knew the content would be just as great. Was not disappointed, but exceeded my expectations. Way too underrated of a channel!!!
Earth is struck by high energy photons from the Sun, and emits low energy photons as thermal radiation. Life is just a particularly interesting path the energy takes in between.
This video is just so beautiful. I love the "falling into randomness." It is so fascinating to think that the universe as a whole is going through this process, and we are just swimming upstream towards complexity as far as we can manage, until our machinery breaks down and we pass down the race to our children.
I've watched countless documentaries about the universe and the vast distances, but never have those made me feel so small and insignificant as these little guys in the last couple of videos. Thank you for the amazing presentation!
One of my favorite examples of chaos that you shouldn't feel so bad about fighting against is the tangled cable. There's many more ways for a cable to be tangled than untangled, and the math of the universe loves making tangled messes more than structure and well kept loops.
razgriz oh sorry man. I just meant the philosophy of “physicalism” which is “the doctrine that the real world consists simply of the physical world.” It’s related to scientific materialism. Not sure why he’s wedging in his physicalist philosophy on a video on microbiological organisms.
Are you arguing that we don't understand the chemistry of life? The things discussed in this video are not meant to disprove spiritual beliefs, just to explain what we can observe in our small view of the universe.
@@shadbakht He isn't wedging anything but Biochemistry and Thermodynamics. Simple stuff really. What do you expect from a science program? Mystic mush?
@@RazgrisFloob Microorganisms don't exhibit them but if that's supposed to mean they're of a fundamentally different nature to us, then the definition of "life" needs to be adjusted accordingly.
Nice soothing soothing voice. And today the lesson of micro-organisms is spiced with some thoughts on the 2nd law of thermodynamics. Pass midnight, time to sleep, perchance to dream.
I love this channel. This is science communicated as science should be communicated. You guys assume your viewers not to be disinterested in science, or to be children like. Last time I saw science communicated this way was in David Attenborough's Life on Earth in 1979 and The Living Planet in 1984. Beautiful job
Some other level to explain the complexity of energy and beginning of organized form of life ,just amazing ! Thank you very much for this ideas which will complete someone the way of seeing through life,world,nature,Universe!
OMG - This is just so magnificent! The world will grow exponentially in understanding as they watch your videos which are presented so well, with charm and a lightness of touch. Yeah!

I'm working on getting back into art anyway, and you guys are inspiring me to do some drawings, which may also become mixed media (ink, watercolor, maybe colored pencils) of several of these microorganisms.

This video beautifully and clearly explains the complexity of life and connects so many important concepts in biology. Thank you from a biology teacher!! Will definitely be using this video in class 🙏🏻
