The end of this video says this is the last in the series, but actually Neptune and Venus are not released yet. I just had some problems with the ordering in production. Don't fear, Neptune and Venus will still get done. Check out Manta Sleep here tinyurl.com/3amtx2k3 and make sure to use ASTRUM for 10% off your order!
In order to bake apple pie you must first create the entire universe. 😅 I can't remember who or where that quote came.from but that has always stuck with me 😅❤❤❤
@@rockhound3.14That’s a neat quote. 👍🏾
@@rockhound3.14I mean... that quote is not exactly wrong, lol.

Our pale blue dot is the most beautiful sight in the entire universe.
Alex is my best "go to sleep ASMR." After I let him sink in, I rewatch the next day to learn the lesson.
Same also my every night

What also fascinates me about Earth is the variation of terrain. We got dry deserts, wet rainforests, deep blue oceans, high monstrous mountains, etc. It's like multiple other worlds into one! Every other rocky planet we know of doesn't have features like our own home. The vastness, overwhelming size of our universe tends to make us forget about the interesting & beautiful features of our own world.
I often think about that. We also have hail, snow, rain, rainbows, lightning, sun, a range of cloud types, seasons, day and night cycle, rivers, large streams, seas, oceans,…. There is so much variety in the „dead“ nature alone, it’s truly stunning
Fr dude fr. We our blessed to have a planet like our own.
But at the same time, the vastness of our universe, and even our own solar system, tends to make us forget that we may not have the most interesting & beautiful features. We may not be the only planet with such variations in terrain and weather. And, the features that we do have, pale in comparison to the features beyond our basic comprehension of other worlds even within our own Solar System and elsewhere. Titan has seas of liquid methane, Europa and Enceladus have global oceans underground which could harbor life. That is just within our own solar system. Janssen, or 55 Cancri E in the 55 Cancri System, could be made up of nearly 1/3rd of it's mass in diamonds. And, there are also some speculations that there are planets outside of our own solar system better equipped for life than even Earth, such as KOI 5715.01.
Oh good to know!
Wow such an interesting planet, hope mankind gets to visit it one day
Hey man. Someone has straight up ripped off one of your videos on Pluto.
They've basically just re-uploaded your video with an AI voice over reading the same script.
The channel is called Beyond The Cosmos.
I've just looked at the channel, and it looks like they've been doing the same with a lot of your videos.
Plagiarism is the highest compliment.
This is endemic on UA-cam, but UA-cam don't seem to want to do anything about it as it still generates ad revenue for them. Kyle Hill did an interesting video on the topic about a year ago called "UA-cam’s Science Scam Crisis", if you're interested to learn more.
@@carlyellison8498Nah, being a patron is the new highest compliment.
Such a shame.,, they need to make their own content and stop ripping off others who put in the work and effort
I think Pumbaa said it best.
"home is where your rump rests"
Home is where you exist with (relative) safety and security as well as friends and possibly family.
Hello Alex,
you are absolutely right, this planet has so much wonder to offer. With the astronomy and space exploration it is amazing to learn about planets made of diamonds, or places where molten iron rains down, but after the initial surprise and novelty of such other worlds wears off, it is clear that the dynamics, diversity, natural processes and just beauty of this planet stands out.
You said it - "Will anything in universe ever be so beautiful and welcoming as this, our home planet?" I love this so much!
Also, I am really glad, that you've mentioned that plate tectonics is rare and unique and what it does for life. I haven't heard it often before. After watching Anton Petrov's video yesterday about the fact that plate tectonics may be the reason why the Fermi paradox is a thing, I'm happy to hear about its importance and uniqueness from another source.
Thank you so much for all you bring to this world, Alex. Amazing education but also reminder of beauty and gratefulness!
Keep it up ❤
Great to meet you at Open Sauce Alex
Indeed have become the annoying child
First
my man
Good you could both ketchup.
Holy… The man himself 😱
i love earths water vapor clouds so much. beautiful from the ground, beautiful from space
Excellent, quite wondrous. You can see why some people believe in a designed Earth.
I learned all this stuff in Meteorology school, and I need daily refresher lessons to remember it all. Same is true for many of my colleagues. Thank you, Alex! 😊
As fascinating as the Universe is, Earth is not only home, but one of the most interesting rarities that we have found in the universe yet.
Earth is also the Milky Way Galaxy's nearest Earth-like planet.
Thank you Alex, Earth is so beautiful we are so lucky ❤❤❤
🌎❤
This video made me feel gratitude
Imagine being an eternal conciousness roaming the cosmos for eternity alone. Seeing nothing (other concious life), knowing nothing, bored, lost, utterly alone. Every gakaxy, every star you visit.....nothing. Then one day in that eternity of loneliness, you discover Earth and think to yourself 'alas i have finally found heaven in a universe of hell'
Is it heaven though? :)
An eternal consciousness? Oh, you must mean God. Let me tell ya, he didn't create all this to leave it 99.999~% void of life... I'm afraid life is everywhere in the universe, and God put it there for His pleasure...
@@Quickened1I think the reverse is more likely to be true.
@Quickened1 He didn't say God, so it's a bit goofy to assume that's what he meant.
@@Quickened1you say "god is the creator" and equate god to the eternal consciousness, yet the eternal consciousness "discovers earth", so the eternal consciousness is not god
Really enjoyed this video, but then I also enjoy all your videos.
Honestly yeah
Consider the three great advances that got us out of the caves and into the cities.
1) The harnessing of fire.
2) The invention of the wheel.
3) The creation of the first Tandoori Mixed Grill.
Cheers
Tandoori can get me out of my cave any time! 😄
thank you well presented - in my time in the navy and then travels over 20 years i have been amazed at the differences and similarities from north to south / east to west in geograpy and people - thank you!
Very inspiring, I love our Planet Earth!
🌎❤
4:44 A sidereal day is roughly 23 hours and 56 minutes. That explains why my cats wake me up for food earlier every day.
Of all the animals, cats might be the most cosmic ;)
Absolutely lovely done this whole series. I'm very grateful to you for doing this series. It definitely enriched my understanding of the world I'm living in. The world I'm part of. One side of mine hopes many years from now your channel is one the most accessible sources to understanding the universe but I also understand that we are just beginning to unfold the mysteries of this vast enigmatic universe. There will be so many new stories to tell and of course, you'll find me there. Just like a faint star in the night, one of your many fans.
Great series Alex!
Really enjoyed all the detail and I noticed all the extra time put into each video. Thanks Alex and the Astrum Team. Thanks to the Patreons.
Beautiful...just too beautiful a vdo ❤ Thank YOU
Person at 13:00 has their priorities straight. Gotta save the coffee!
This is nearly the exact comment I was going to make, thank you.
EDIT: I laugh every time I watch it.
Haha! Thanks for the time code, that was well worth a re-watch :D
Excellent video, congrats! Amazing edit, your calming voice, stunning clips... Love it!
Your videos will never fail to excite me about the cosmos. 😊 🌍
Another fact that most get wrong:
Earth has intelligent life.
Pockets of intelligence that are rapidly evaporating, thus concentrating the intelligence in an ever diminishing number of people. This is very apparent in the US.
I think you just outed yourself.
@@mitseraffej5812 i wish humanity was more intelligent, but remember that we are the smartest creatures, with the most accomplishments we know of.
Debatable.
I love the ambiguity in the original comment: It doesn't actually say whether Earth has or doesn't have intelligent life. :D
But on a serious and sobering note, scientists have recently learned how prevalent tyre dust is, and that the particles are small enough to slip through the blood-brain barrier, though we don't yet know what it might do to the brain. However, there's an association between lack of intelligence and petty crime, and I can't help noticing that petty crime is a far bigger problem in and near urban areas. But no part of Earth's surface is without tyre dust, and over 50% of the microplastics in the oceans have turned out to be tyre dust.
I love cars, but there's increasing evidence that they're amongst the stupidest things humans have ever created.
By far the most enjoyable videos on YT and 100% appreciate that there is no agendas being pushed, just info 👍❤️💕. Cheers and Bless those who understand our place in the universe
really good video Alex, nicely researched and very detailed ✌️😎
This Earth place seems like it'd be a cool planet to visit.
Debatable. 😂
Speaking as a long time native, you wouldn't want to live here
Mostly harmless.😂
@@anthonymarcello1265 then have fun on venus, goodbye.
@ldubt4494 so, there's actually the possibility of living in the upper atmosphere of Venus, above the sulfuric acid clouds. It's potentially dense enough that it might be very plausible to build floating settlements. Or so I've read.
I'm in love with space, and I fell in love because of your channel.
Keep up the vids man, they are great!
"The Earth is the cradle of humanity, but mankind cannot stay in the cradle forever." - Konstantin Tsiolkovsky
I love the breathable air myself and the radiation protection from the sun, not to mention comfortable temperatures
Fantastic video
This is one of the best videos out of many! Definitely a Saver! 👍😉
This video is very beautifully made and created, It reminds us how much beauty, how dynamic and important earth to us. But many people on earth don't appreciate earth that much, like Carl Sagan said "We succeeded in taking that picture, and, if you look at it, you see a dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever lived, lived out their lives"
I am not convinced; my girlfriend is pretty adamant I'm the most dense object in our solar system.
Get off your big fat mass and do something with your life
😂
This is why a colony on Mars will never work. The first people who are born on Mars will learn how amazing Earth is and curse the people who forced them to be born on Mars. Then they'll just end up coming back here.
I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t stay on Mars forever. We’d probably do something similar to the ISS where people go there for a few months or longer and then return to Earth. If not, maybe they live on Mars but are allowed to visit Earth every now and then and people on Earth could visit Mars every now and then as well. Or maybe reproduction won’t be allowed on Mars until we can find some way to colonize it and make it Earth-like (which comes with its own set of problems). But there are many other problems with building/starting a colony on Mars that people are actively trying to solve. Mother nature loves to throw challenges at us but eventually we find a way to overcome them even if it takes thousands of years to do so.
I seems without burrowing deep underground, humans would receive a lethal dose of cosmic radiation on Mars in a few years. Though that's enough time to get homesick.
Mars will not be settled to live there. Mars will be settled for mining and research, and all people that will go there will go by an incentive. Also, by that point travel between earth and mars will only take some weeks, if youre born there and want to move to earth it will be no problem.
Your bones and muscles would be weaker in mars people so some probably wouldn't be able to come to earth if they couldn't adapt
@@tylerwright3950 Mars doesnt have this weak of a gravity, while they certainly wouldnt be top athletes for a while on earth, they would be fine and over time muscles would build up.
@astrumspace Thank you so much! This is top tier content. ❤
Another excellent video about our fascinating universe. The production quality and visuals were superb. Thanks Alex 👍
Best video ever Alex. Just beautiful, thank you.
This is one of the best video's I've ever seen about earth, and in 20 minutes. That's quite an accomplishment. Thank you very much!
Another great video, thanks Alex
Great video, as always, Alex
11:54. I live there
This was one of your best!
Great as always!!!
Great video!
So incredibly complex and beautifully perfect enough to work together
One thing that intrigues me is how the Earth has a 23 degree tilt. Perfect might be 22 1/2 degrees, as it exactly regulates a balanced set of extremes. 23, though, allows a couple days for weather patterns to minutely dwell, which creates a tiny amount of chaos to occur, helping create near equal sustainable rainfall and moderate air pressures(obviously not the soul reason for this but it helps).
As for nearby exoplanets, from all that I have read, and with a little statistical guesswork, within a 10 light year radius, there should be 5-15 habitable worlds around mostly red, orange, and yellow dwarf stars, and maybe 1 supermoon around a brown dwarf or a super Jupiter. Farther out, this proportion, relative to volume of space and density of stars, should be about the same.
Just the right amount of chaos. I like that. :)
@@bryanbryan2968 Habitability requires so many factors to be just right that it's hard to even find what they all are. One which gets me is having the right amount of water. For all that we say Earth's oceans are vast, the science has found that we should have far more water. The Earth's surface was once covered in an ocean many miles deep. The search for a mechanism by which this excess water disappeared concluded with the discovery that a certain isotope of aluminium would have had the right energy output to boil off that much water and the right half-life to have decayed to the isotope ratio we now see. So maybe there are 5-15 worlds of a comfortable temperature within 10 light years, but many of them might be flooded to such a depth, they have no stable areas which aren't under pressure far higher than the bottom of Earth's oceans.
Bros voice is angelic, love this dude
Awesome video once again!
What a wonderful video, thank you!
These scientists and ancient astronomers from a couple thousand years ago were just amazing. Goes to show you, for as long as humans have been around, there has always been bright, innovative people.
Great job Alex . You obviously put a great deal of work into this video. Yes Earth is a unique planet. It could of never happened by accident.
An amazing video, reminding us of the beauty of OUR Home.
I hope you hear the genuine appreciaton and respect from your viewers, disregarding the trolls. Unfortunately, they are a sign that your work has achieved a certain level of recognition and status, fwiw.
Thank you 💜🌍🌎🌏✊🍀
great video man
Man, watching your videos always gives me the urge to play some KSP
Great video with beautiful and stunning visuals of how truly amazing the Earth is. 😎
Another banger mate
I really like your voice, explanation of the stuff of space contents really match domain
"Keeping time can be more complicated than you thought" this is exactly correct. I didnt realize how little I knew about time until I began studying for a world I'm creating.
The thing I thought would take a couple hours at most to study sucked me into a 2 month rabbit hole...and I may be more lost now than I was in the beginning, lmffao.
Wonderful episode. I actually understood 99% of it. 😊
Can we get a playlist for all the new “our solar systems planets” series now that the remasters are complete?
Too early for the video today!!
Lol
😊❤️🌟Thanks for shining 👍❣️
Your third-person description of the Earth, as a celestial body, is quite delightful. I'm known as a bit of space nerd amongst my colleagues and they are often surprised that Earth is my favourite planet and by my reasoning,...it's where I'm from! =) Also I reckon it's the best looking planet in our Solar System
This is the best one.
Wow, these images were so beautiful again.
Love watching your videos when I’m going to sleep
Beautiful program
5:00
this is so crazy but im about 99.99% sure that I worked at this apartment complex. Everything about it looks exactly the same, seeing this just about threw me out of my chair once I saw it. Im almost certain. I worked there as an apartment maintenance technician back then.
You're awesome, congrats
I'm mostly impressed with the substantiations in this video of my own late realizations that the entire cosmos seems to adhere to some divine plan of perfection and direction towards evolution based on a predetermined paradym of guidance from both the ultimate combined creative source and the variety of imaginative consciousness projected by sentient beings who just so hold the abilities of the imagination concepts
That was cool. Thanks
Brilliant 🙏
Earth is such a fascinating place to live and learn about.
Our home!❤
I shed a tear there
I will never cease to wonder at the universe, especially Earth.
Thanks!
Thanks, Alex! 🌏🌍🌎
Excellent
This video was amazing! I love earth 🌎 hahaha
I have been to earth several times, personally. I always enjoy it.
After all the talk of giant stars and super massive black holes, it is easy to lose sight of the fact that earth is not really a peanut.
COME ON LET HIM GET TO 2 MIL SUBS GO GO GO
I love all the interesting things in this video. KUDOS!
Would the Earth's rotation, slowing down over time, cause the surface to heat-up? And if so, how long would that extra dwell make a meaningful difference?
I feel like this will be played on a ship drifting through space in a few hundred years from now. As a generation grows up only knowing the vast emptiness of space.
great... bravoo
Could you please do a video on what happens, and the timeframe involved, when the Moon finally pulls away from the Earth? I know it would be hypothetical because no one really knows what will happen, but that would be a very interesting video indeed! Thanks, Alex!
What a Thumbnail, Alex. ❤🎉
All these years, never thought earth was this complicated.🌎
This would be a very good video to watch in 2nd Grade. If the students can stay awake listening to this guy's voice.
Excellent video. And VERY topical - we have the best planet in the solar system, quite possibly the best one in the universe, so let's not spoil it. It will cost a fraction of the money a Mars base would need, just to stop and reverse global warming.
Great video. Another thing about our calendar is that not every 4 years is a leap year.
I've spent way too long trying to type this explanation without it reading complete nonsense, that I just copied it from Google.
"Every year that is exactly divisible by four is a leap year, except for years that are exactly divisible by 100, but these centurial years are leap years if they are exactly divisible by 400. For example, the years 1700, 1800, and 1900 are not leap years, but the years 1600 and 2000 are."
I'm glad you mentioned tidal forces acting on the crust, not just the water. Tidal force acts on everything, it's just that the water moves because it can, but the thin layer of rock is under enormous strain because it can't move easily - a strain that changes direction four times a day. The planet is being constantly massaged and I believe this is the cause of the grumbling and groaning, the thousands of tiny earthquakes that occur each day. Convection currents in the mantle probably cause the overall directional movement, but as you say, it's likely that tidal forces enable or enhance this movement by constantly nudging it. On the time scale of plate tectonics, it'd be like a vibration.
You’ve just blown every flerfers tiny mind in just a 20 minute video!!!😂😂😂
this series reminds me of the encyclopedia i had when I was a kid, chapters dedicated to each planets. Read it almost daily and memorized it.
What's the third sentence on page 68?
wonderful
