The onlu reason Ihad stopped subscribing to Nebula is that I can not make a convenient playlist like I can on UA-cam. I like to listen to your videos when I drive for about 1.5 to 3 hours. If Nebula gets the ability to make playlists, I would get it immediately. It had been a while since I last subscribed.
Honestly, nebula kinda overpriced for such a platform. No matter how vital and beloved the platform ceators HAVE to realize that brilliant, curiosity and nebula are yet another subscription. Disney, Max, prime, Netflix, hulu, youtube, apple, and crunchyroll all have significant subscribers, and thats before things like XBL+play pass, PSN, NSO, and video game battlepasses. It is simply unrealistic to think people will be willing to add YET ANOTHER hand in our pocket. They need to follow the examples of the minor big players like showtime, stars, cinemax and the like and offer Nebula thru an adjacent platform like prime or youtube or something. They have to offer something worth eliminating one of the aforementioned platforms, because many people simply cant afford to burn dough on nebula when it doesn't even offer the functionality of youtube (the very platform we discovered Nebula on thru SFIA). I love nebula, but i wont be burning dough on it.
@@blueslsd I think it has do with us just having a relatively small dev/programming team, features getting added slowly, though that would be a nice one.
I always just think of what we label as a “monster,” as a species in which we have not officially discovered yet, and are large enough to have the ability to harm humans.
The reason they can wear only breather masks is explained in the expanded universe, although it's no more realistic for that. Basically the shields of a starship can be extended to provide a thing atmospheric envelope around the ship. This is contradicted by other lore a bunch of times though, even concerning this specific ship, since Lando needed to put on a full space suit when looking for bombs and repairing damage to the Falcon.
I suppose you could include the man-made dragons from the Pern series of books by Anne McCaffrey. Their skeletons incorporate boron for strength, to enable them to fly in an Earth gravity and at one atmosphere. Also the dragons were designed to grow larger over generations. Another example of void ecology is the sequel to the Arthur C Clarke novel: Against the Fall of Night, Gregory Benford's Beyond the Fall of Night. To paraphrase, life on planets is akin to slime on ocean rocks and life in space is akin to all other species swimming about said ocean. Meaning, life's main area of existence is space.
Well, I'm sure glad this clarifies things a bit. I was getting nightmares thinking about how much ammo to stockpile for a Tyrannid hive fleet incursion.
There's a problem with the cubed law. There's a point where an organism would just collapse in on themselves in any environment with gravity. In space they'd have a problem generating energy (if they don't have photosynthesis)
Missed a golden opportunity to reference a budong But in all sincerity - there are no space whales. They exist only in fiction. Too preposterous a concept to be given serious consideration
Ideas like this make for great stories whether or not they're super realistic. There's a short film called "The Beacon" on the Dust youtube channel about a space monster that is particularly good.
To the point toward the end about having to slowly cross the interstellar void. Sci-fi occasionally touches on this, to a degree. Many organisms, such as viruses and the tartigrade, can survive otherwise unsurvivable situations by entering a type of stasis. Size might be a problem. But just because something is very large, doesn't mean it can't lay very small eggs.
Possibly a space faring giant space monster might be able to generate its own artificial gravity. Gravitic manipulation would be useful for moving around in space as well as retaining its own atmosphere (useful for thermal regulation). For example, the giant space slug in Star Wars might retain an atmosphere in its guts to facilitate its gut flora that help break down the stuff it eats.
I love the hydro shell idea. I want more of that but also this could be done with a rotating habitat. Off gasing and temperature regulation might be problems with a hydro shell that a rh would solve.
I mean everything has gravity and given how big the universe is and how limited our knowledge is of its pieces and parts it wouldn’t surprise me in the least bit if there are asteroids out there composed of material that enhances gravitational forces.
Explosions in space, swords of light powered by magic crystals that can melt metal and cauterize flesh on contact (but dont burn the hands), minutes from surface to orbit without reentry, battle monks that can use magic and their foes are utterly incompetent hostile empires that cant even handle basic logistics, cybersecurity or military intelligence run by sociopathic self-defeating angry monk wizards. Every single space vehicle from single person fighters to dwarf planet sized battle stations have both impulse drives AND antigravity technology... But gravity on an asteroid is where you draw the line.
What about an armored-blimp solution for the kaiju-scale challenge; hollow, filled with some lighter than atmosphere gas (maybe even heated to decrease gas density even further), both helping fight gravity and keep living tissue closer to the source of oxygen or whatever gas they breath from the atmosphere by having their flesh and other living and structural tissue distributed more like a thick shell than filling the internal volume more fully like normal Earth creatures?
This is retroactively PERFECT timing. At the time you posted this, I just got done with a DnD session where my silly Orc barbarian who'd been acting the fool paid the ultimate price to his Lovecraftian pseudo-patron - an Aboleth in space. Pretty sure there's nothing in the core book about rules for breathing in space though! Bye Zogdush, maybe watch some Isaac content while you're out there. 😅
If our lovely narrator decides to make an episode about a solar system about a sun surrounded by an asteroid Dyson swarm ecosystem of mega fauna and Flora. I will be down for that. But I will steal much of it for a DND month shot campaign.
mynock chewing on power cables, the space worm was filed with mynock because that's what the space worm eats, it attracts mynock in by the environment it makes, some times large predictors are chasing mynock but then the mynock escapes in to a cave too big for the predictors chasing the mynock, the space worm eats those too and that's why it has teeth. that whole part from star wars, just seemed totally natural and explained if stuff could live in space.
The largest sauropods probably were over 100 tons -- considering what a miniscule sample we have (note there are known cases of huge African bush elephants at 10k kilos+). Some sauropods _may_ have rivaled the mass of blue whales.
Something frequently overlooked regarding weapons against Godzilla is that even if modern weaponry can punch through Godzilla's scale, there's nothing really countering their insane cellular regeneration/repair abilities. Wonder if there's anything that could stop that.
i really hope we get soon an episode exploring aliens who want to clean Earth of life. Like why. I suggest looking into Crysis Legion, it gave a very interesting theory/way to explore it: Because Earth before mankind evolved, was a garden/psudo farming land, where the Ceph alien life harvested materials. When humans evolved and conquered Earth, the alien's systems were activated and began to find ways to kill all human life because they are destroying the biosphere.
An asteroid field that dense might be able to hold onto some atmosphere? I think the greater mystery might be why they haven't collapsed, but maybe there are enough exploding ships to keep them apart over time. 😀
It's nice that you release the exlusives from other places on the Net. Not too soon, to make the invesment invalid for folks that paid for it, and not too late either.

On the subject of mobility in space. I remember reading an arrticle in Scientific American many years ago that described a method to 'swim' in microgravity using the gravitational gradient with something similar to a frog kick. Though the gained momentum would be fairly small in most cases.
I do not believe that the laws of physics allow for animals much bigger than twice the size of an adult blue whale to exist. A body that huge could not maintain cohesion. I believe that nowhere in the entire universe is there an animal the size of Godzilla.
How long would a rocky body shattered by an impact, or brief tidal disruption, just strong enough to crack it apart but not produce anything much above even too close the escape velocity of the resulting collective cloud of rock and dust, stick around in a dense enough concentration before either recoalescing or getting spread into a more "realistic" very undense distribution? A short enough span of time that the lack of molten blobs would be unrealistic? Is there no configuration of masses and orbits which would produce a region that would stably maintain a dense ring of rocks that repeatedly gets disrupted just enough to produce something similar to the typical scifi "asteroid field", perhaps something sorta analogous to rings on planets but around a star, stabilized in that state by passage of planets instead of moons?
One thing few sci fi narratives remember is that there are no chemical reactions without pressure, and there is no pressure in vacuum. Meaning nothing can evolve from zero in a hard vacuum. It would need to first evolve in an atmosphere or under enough water to provide that pressure, and then become vacuum-resistant. If we assume it gets around the no-reactions-without-pressure issue, it would need to be built like a pressurised tank, its skin forming the pressure hull. It would then also have the issue of its pressure-retaining skin constantly evaporating. Not fast, but with how little 'food' there would be for it out in the vacuum, this would quickly become an issue.
Sand worms are more like a creature swimming in a fluid and not like one sitting on ground. It's even demonstrated in Dune they trigger liquefaction of the sand around them meaning they can use buoyancy forces to distribute the weight of the sand and themselves to an equilibrium. They are swimming, not tunneling.
I was trying to figure out a world setting where the remains of a gas giant settles just far enough from its star that it saved, just enough atmosphere to be earth thick. Trying to justify how a metal ball would have plate tectonics and stuff. Flora vs fauna, ect.

What’s a monster though? On a planet of Godzillas, Godzilla is just some dude

I can't believe it! SFIA finally did a giant space monster episode! This is the stuff dreams are made of ;)
Can we pet them?
Depends on if you are attached to the hand I imagine :)
Maybe with a specially designed mecha. Something big, tough but non-threatening. Think "Hello Kitty" x "Optimus Prime."
At least once…
@@mikehickey7383I wanted to say that.

Neat how your throwing some new field of study in the mix so casually .
