    Hi everyone, Alex here, welcome to the remaster of the video that made this channel possible! It was my first ever video to take off. I've come a long way since then, and wanted to revisit this amazing planet with updated visuals and audio. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who joined Patreon. Your membership is what allows me to keep Astrum what it is, and not what the algorithm looks for. bit.ly/4anEb5u

    Many years ago a friend of mine got himself a telescope.
    When he first trained it on Mars, the planet was experiencing a global sand storm.
    He described it as an orange fuzz ball.
    We both got better views later, and could make out features like the polar ice cap. I'm totally glad I got that opportunity.

    Whenever I think of how Earth looks to other planets, I think of Carl Sagan’s “pale blue dot” quote, and everything in my life feels so small and meaningless. Instead of feeling depressed or horrified, it calms me, and helps me distress a little just knowing how insignificant we are in the grand scheme of the universe.

    Love the remasters for this series. We know so much more than we did back then and it gives you a chance to make a video of higher quality. I’m pretty new to this channel but it’s become one of my favorites and I’ve gone back and watched your older videos, especially about stars. I find stars and light to be very fascinating. It’s amazing too the images we can get now from Hubble, modern ground telescopes, rovers, and probes. We can see the wonders from space from our own little neighborhood here around the sun all the back to the distant past of the universe. There’s so much beauty on this planet that it’s a marvel to see the beautiful features of places we most likely won’t get the opportunity to go to. Keep up the good work

Hell, his _mom_ is still alive and will be turning *103* in November. So I hope you were just being pessimistic and that outlook is not due to an actual medical condition.

    Thank you so much Alex! Your presentations are always wonderful and your enthusiasm is infectious. I need to mention a fact that is never covered in the presentations of Mars in anyone's video but is truly astonishing. There is so much water on Mars that if the surface water was melted including the hidden glaciers it would comprise an ocean of about hundred and 15 feet deep over the entire planet. Could you please and a feature video give this theme sometime?
    From Wikipedia:A bundant water ice is also present beneath the permanent carbon dioxide ice cap at the Martian south pole. More than 5 million km3 of ice have been detected at or near the surface of Mars, enough to cover the whole planet to a depth of 35 meters (115 ft).[13] Even more ice might be locked away in the deep subsurface.

    My favorite fact, which I just learned, thanks Alex, is the reason Mars has that color. It also got my imagination zooming thinking about the megastructures that had to have been there to create that much rust. The Fe was mined from that used to be Grand Canyon size, crevasse Valles Marineris. That's where all the oxygen hiding. When we go back and start building again, more iron we use, easier it'll be to breathe. Now that's one helluvan incentive right there. Lol

    • @tylerdurden3722
      @tylerdurden3722 2 місяці тому

      This fact is even better. Some rocks/sand have iron in it's chemical composition. And when you expose those rocks to oxygen the iron "rusts" and the rocks/sand turn red...just like here on earth (iron is the most abundant metal in the crust).
      If you've ever seen a place with reddish sand and/or rocks...those rusted and turned red, just like on Mars.
      No megastructures needed...you just need Iron to be the most abundant metal in the crust...and on Mars, it's very abundant.

    If you don't have 4K turned on DO IT NOW! There are some absolutely STUNNING images you have to see in high-res.

      Like when he's beeting his dawg during the last 5 mintues? He really lays into that dawg, closed fist punches right to that dawg mouth. He kept screaming at him, calling him "shifty" and "smarmy" and "judgmental". I don't think that dawg is gonna make it through this one, in 4K you can really see it in his dawg eyes. He's prayin' his little dawgy prayers for tha sweet release of death.

      That's if you actually have a monitor that can do 4k. If you choose 4k on a 1080p monitor it'll be a super tiny bit better but nowhere near actual 4k quality.

    I'd like you to compare the challenges of building a community on Mars compared to a community on our Moon - excluding the time and expense of travel, but including the dangers to the crew in Earth-Mars trips, such as radiation and long-term weightlessness or spin gravity.

    But can you please do metric units aswell going forward? a video conversion would be nice, because which European in their right mind does know what 38000 or 120000 ft is in meters or km... (i know now, because i looked it up, but also i now am writing this essay to 'complain' about the units you use.)
    really just a feature request comment if nothing else.

    What first got me interested in space was the National Geographic articles about Pathfinder back in 1997! I was fascinated be the idea that we can control/communicate with machine sso far away. And then Pathfinder itself was even in the book/movie The Martian in 2015!
