I remember when i spotted my first qusar with my telescope. The quasar’s name is 3C 351 and it is about 4.6 billion light years away. It took me about 45 minutes of looking through my scope and then reviewing my charts to make sure i am actually looking at a quasar. In my scope it looked like just another dim star, but it blew me away to think that i was looking at a mind bogglingly massive, bright, and powerful quasar that is 10% across the entire observable universe. It was incredible.
That's utterly incredible. Some real top-notch amateur astronomy right there, well done, my friend!!! I have the exact same experience, except all we're talking about for me are my first observations of both Uranus and Ceres hahahaha. I'll work my way up to your level some day I'm sure 😉
I really love how instead of just telling us what a quasar is, you took us through the decades of research it took scientists to figure out what was actually happening. Cheers for a fascinating video!
@@realityvanguard2052 that's why SEA deserves props. There's a lot of popular science channels that only describe what we know something to be after we've already "figured it out", not explain the process that brought us to that understanding. The history of the research and how our ideas change along the way is just as interesting!
@@leminjapan We live in a golden age of informative videos, my friend. Once upon a time, used to just rely on PBS docs for basic info, NOVA science now every Monday night, and just hope it takes you on a journey to the stars... Then when most of the space documentaries became available online in the early 2010's I'd be watching them like every day, only to have to listen to the same basic concepts re-explained over-and-over again in the hopes that maybe I'd learn something new. .. Do you know how many times I've had to hear about how many Earth's can fit inside Jupiter? OR that the sun holds 99% of the solar system's mass? haha or the basics of relativity and space time? Seeing that 2D representation of how gravity works using a trampoline or something xD IT'S NOT EVEN A GOOD REPRESENTATION! Not really... haha but I digress. Point is this had better be a step above those dark times xP or I would be back on Wikipedia.. He does a decent job reading it for me
More mindblowing than Quasars is how you can come up with this incredible quality in every Video. It is so on point that it truly outshines 99,9% of all space documentary’s. Hats off to you. Keep up the amazing work

PBS Space Time is a favorite of mine, also recently discovered Kyle Hill. Them plus SEA are my top 3 for sure... wouldn’t mind any more recommendations though.
This channel and Issac Arthur are my favs. Issac talks more about futuristic and alien subjects but they're similar. They should do a team up on a few vids actually.
I'd just like say how much I enjoy your videos. I've watched similar UA-cam space documentaries and yours stand head and shoulders above the rest. No drama and calmly narrated, extremely well researched, factually precise, fascinating, and great graphics to accompany it all too. Your hard work has not gone unnoticed. This channel is up there as one of the best.
I'm 30 years old right now watching this. I've always been interested in space. For some reason I keep thinking about sitting in my grade school library back in 1997 and doing mundane tasks while this kind of stuff is happening out in the universe. It makes me feel infinitesimally small. Like I could be reborn a billion times and never get any further than bearing witness to these Universal events. It's quite humbling.
i feel exactly this way. whenever i think about the vastness of space i almost quiver at the thought of being that small and insignificant compared to it. but i love that feeling
@@mbukukanyauexactly lol. All the universes size makes me feel is that it’s meaninglessly big. The only thing that matters is what’s on our earth and in our solar system. If you want to know the true nature of the universe then find religion, because astronomers are not figuring it out anytime soon.
I love how I fall asleep every time I watch one of these, so I can watch it again next night. It takes me few nights to finally finish it. Interesting, but calming. Love it.
This is just top notch presentation. Your wording is incredibly well thought out and concise and the ordering of concepts is logical. Even more impressive is the coverage of recent papers that could only be distilled by someone very familiar with the subject matter. Your efforts are deeply appreciated.
That's a common thing for many people including me, but one thing I must say is it helps sleep not because it's boring, It's quite the opposite, but it gives peace of mind and a feeling of welfare. Also if I fall asleep on say minute 20, I will be happy the following day cos I'll still have the 5 min catch-up plus the remaining 10 or 15 minutes to enjoy!
I read every astronomy book I could get my hands on as a kid. I always thought quasars and black holes were separate. Imagine my astonishment and duh moment when I found out quasars are black holes. The thing from which light cannot escape is ironically the brightest thing in the known universe.
This is what really puts me to sleep at night! Nothing better then listening to the wonders of the universe as you slowly fade into the sleeping phase👍☺️
Your videos are awesome and this one is on a league of its own. It's so good that even if it's over 30 mins long, it feels short and you don't want it to end. You show a deep and rigurous knowledge and one learns not one but quite a few things with every video, and also you give credit to people who devoted their lives to investigation and astronomy and maybe didn't get much acknowledgment outside the astronomy guild. Very well done young man and keep it up. Top quality content to feed the mind with curiosity, imagination and the determination to understand.
It's Ramadan right now and one of the things you do is wake up around 3 or 4 to eat breakfast and for the past, two to three years I have been watching your videos every Ramadan at 3 in the morning to get through my food before fasting, your videos are both educational and entertaining and its a treat to watch them every early morning while I eat :)
1. Go check out space engine because it's what he's using to capture this space footage 2. Come to know Jesus Christ, my friend. That religion can make you feel good on Earth but the *only* way to the Father is through His Son who died for us on the cross while we were still sinners.
You have done something that no other person/show has ever done before: finally broke down red shift in a way I can finally understand it. THANK YOU! I have felt so dumb for so long but now I feel just a little but smarter. Thank you so much for that!
'Yes it's really called the Huge Large Quasar Group.' Welcome to letting astronomers name anything. -What part of the sky did we find it in? -Can I name it after myself? -How big is it?
@@kevinflaherty1 the letters usually represent what type of object it is and the numbers are just straight coordinates sometimes with extras like which telescope found it or the cluster its located in. I more referring to giving stuff a 'proper' name though. Observatories/telescopes work the same way (ELT literally stands for Extra Large Telescope)
The Gamma Ray Burst Wall, Bootes Supervoid along with things like this are easily the most fascinating/horrifying things to think about in this universe. It's amazing to think about seeing things like this, is peering into the early universe. Sure there are some quasars within a billion light years, but they're quite rare after 'the age of quasars'. Who knows, in the FAR future we may have another. SEA is easily my most anticipated space channel.
I always watch your videos when I’m going to sleep, and they always end up keeping me up because I’m sat here so encapsulated by the stories you’re telling, thank you for always making the best videos SEA, I’m glad someone else loves space and cosmology as much as I do.
This channel is incredible. Great and comprehensive info, no click-bait titles and not a single plead for likes or subs. The videos are practically animated white papers.
I love this channel. There's something philosophical and deep about the discussion of space here - it's unique stuff, not gimmicky, not too dumbed down and his voice is like a sage.
The best space channel! I look forward to each video and you can tell how much work he puts into each one and how much he loves the subject. 🌟 really amazing work
These are by far my favorite cosmology videos on UA-cam. They’re extremely well put together, incredibly informative, and are perfect to throw on a playlist and fall asleep. Thanks for making these!
Dude, your content is better produced than anything on History or PBS or any other platform. It’s amazing this is free! I’ve been a sub since your early days and your constantly improving! Cheers mate
This is my third night of attempting to finish this video in bed. I always fall asleep after 10 minutes. And I mean that in the best way possible. The production quality of your videos is amazing and incredibly relaxing.
Thank you providing us with so much interesting space content, it's difficult to find a channel as specific as yours and I'm truly grateful for the content you provide.
This is one of the VERY few channels I think is highly professional and is a steal of content on here for free and who's videos not only I've seen all of but that I actually enjoy to re watch and really capture the essence of each topic and space in general.
Been here for awhile and just wanted to say thanks, your content is part of my day almost every day. Always looking forward to the next one friend, Salud!
Astronomy used to be the most exciting for me until u realize almost everything about it is untouchable and will never be able to be used in any tangible way. Still mysterious though but damn why does it have to be so big
I wish every class I had ever taken was like this. A huge amount of information, while at the same time easy enough for the non Astrophysicist to understand. This information really helps change one's perception of how important life and consciousness really is.
I’ve always enjoyed SEA’s content and I like the narrators delivery. I’m at the most an amateur amateur astronomer. I understand just enough of all of this to know that I don’t understand most of it. But I’ll keep plugging away at it.
SEA your videos are amazing I’ve listened to so many now and you just hit all the buttons bro. I love expanding my intellect and you help that process in this area of study. I appreciate you even tho u won’t se this😂👍
I love the journey in each video and how you touch on how our understanding of say, quasars, has evolved over time and where gaps still remain in our knowledge. @SEA nevers just says "this is a quaser, thank you for watching my Ted talk" and for that I am thankful.
Ugh so true. It gives me hope when I look at SEA and other space-related videos. My problems, my anxieties and fears ultimately have just as much meaning as any other human on the planet.
This is by far the best astronomy content I have come across. I have heard I’d quasars many time but never understood the accretion disc. Brilliantly explained.
I really need to know what the thumbsdown people dislike about SEA's videos. Is it his attention to detail? His ability to express complex scientific data in a way that is more accessible? How about his spot on graphics? (I mean, they prompted ME to get SpaceEngine on Steam, but maybe you all don't like excellent graphics?) Or his on point music choices that compliment the graphics and excellent narration? I am truly puzzled.
Your content is world class good. You should be an official spokesperson for the whole cosmology community. Your tone, diction and choice of words are a joy to learn from and the imagery is mesmorising. Don’t ever stop making these videos.
Why didn't I sub to this channel a long time ago? Some of the best astronomy/cosmology documentaries that have ever been made come from this channel. Top notch work.
I've watched... everything, completed it mate. Your channel is literally number one for me out of anything watchable. Not going to lie, I don't fully understand why but it is. I will have watched this video at least 10 times before your next. Thank you, again.
I find myself feeling so small and insignificant when watching amazing videos as yours. It goes to show how insignificant we are in this universe. And how one star can outshine all of us In under one second.
Min 4:57 "take this deep photograph of space" is just mind-blowing awesome. The pace of this video and its music is just perfect, and I must have watched it at least a hundred times now
man! i think i can speak for everyone. we would love to have a new video every day or every week, but if we need to wait a month for this quality, we're glad to wait. now, speaking fro myself. your channel is the best on youtube! damn! every video is amazing! i've watched a lot of them multiple times in the last year, since im working from home. the graphic, the content, the voice, the jokes, everything is on point. thank you, man! honestly, thank you for your work! PS:i would kill to listen to a conversation between you and dr.brian cox!
Hey man, I’ve been watching your content for a few months now and wanna say thank you. Especially for this video. I was about 5 years old when i first watched something on Discovery channel related to cosmos, it was About quasars. I was fascinated by it and was waiting for you to do video on this topic. Appreciated ❤️❤️ keep up the good work
I’m glad you found what you like doing and made it with the intention to put out what you like very much and not only are you very very informative and very unique but very nice to have a video along side a morning waking up or wanting just a chill good time
Also physicists: "What do we name this new fundamental particle we discovered?" "I know, how about that silly word from a poem that's a German curdled dairy product?" "Quark? Perfect!"
Don't get me wrong. But when some people say that they don't like physics but these youtube channels make them love it, I don't really understand how cause I always loved physics. But finally I understand them because I never really liked astronomy but this guy makes me love it.
There is only one thing wrong with evidence for SagA* being a former quasar, and that is the belts above and below the galactic center that appear to be the result of a quasar tsunami.
Thank you for being the first channel to acknowledge that something billions of light years away like a quasar is something likely not still Occurring because the light we see from it happened billions of years ago.

Dude, your content is better produced than anything on History or PBS or any other platform. It’s amazing this is free! I’ve been a sub since your early days and your constantly improving! Cheers mate
This is my third night of attempting to finish this video in bed. I always fall asleep after 10 minutes. And I mean that in the best way possible. The production quality of your videos is amazing and incredibly relaxing.
Thank you providing us with so much interesting space content, it's difficult to find a channel as specific as yours and I'm truly grateful for the content you provide.
This is one of the VERY few channels I think is highly professional and is a steal of content on here for free and who's videos not only I've seen all of but that I actually enjoy to re watch and really capture the essence of each topic and space in general.
Imagine living on a planet where light comes less from your sun and more from the black hole in the center of your galaxy
You don't have to imagine. You can experience it in space engine yourself, which is what he's using to get the footage. UA-cam it
The Sun is humiliated enuf don't remind it.
Literal black hole sun. Soundgarden must have come from a quasar galaxy 😂
When SEA says "vast quantities".....it makes me really happy
We are just an *_atom in the universe_*
Even smaller than that, probably a quark, bc we don't know what's beyond the visible universe.
We ARE the universe. At a large enough scale you can think of it all as one ongoing process of which we are directly a (miniscule) part of
Yes we do....more universe
What are you talking about. I'm just answering the fuckin question to the video which choo choo asked
@@peace4myheart much much smaller than a quark... even to the observable universe
Been here for awhile and just wanted to say thanks, your content is part of my day almost every day. Always looking forward to the next one friend, Salud!
Astronomy is the most exciting science, in my opinion.
Astronomy and microbiology for me! As above, so below.
especially when you are trying to sleep!
I'm a neuroscientist and even I agree with you!
Astronomy used to be the most exciting for me until u realize almost everything about it is untouchable and will never be able to be used in any tangible way. Still mysterious though but damn why does it have to be so big
@@henrycraig5952 That's exactly why it's so exciting. The fact that the universe is mysterious and colossal.
You are massively underrated on here. Honestly you deserve millions of subs!! Your better than 99% of documentaries 👌 Love your work brother
First new video since I subscribed a couple of weeks ago. Excited! Love your content.
I wish every class I had ever taken was like this. A huge amount of information, while at the same time easy enough for the non Astrophysicist to understand. This information really helps change one's perception of how important life and consciousness really is.
“Yes, it really is called the huge large quasar group”🤣🤣
I’ve always enjoyed SEA’s content and I like the narrators delivery. I’m at the most an amateur amateur astronomer. I understand just enough of all of this to know that I don’t understand most of it. But I’ll keep plugging away at it.
Same brother. But its fascinating non the less.

Do you know CGP-Grey?
Veritasium?
Tier-Zoo?
Legal Eagle?
Kozmo?
Sci Man Dan?!
Its ok to be smart?

"Something we shouldn't worry about in the Milky Way,"
Those sound suspiciously like famous last words to me. ;-)
SEA, you are a dream come true. Your genius work puts others to shame. Thank you for all that u do for us!!
Love your content bro. I hope this message makes you smile like your content does for me
SEA your videos are amazing I’ve listened to so many now and you just hit all the buttons bro. I love expanding my intellect and you help that process in this area of study. I appreciate you even tho u won’t se this😂👍
You're the only youtuber I turn my ad blocker off for lol
I love the journey in each video and how you touch on how our understanding of say, quasars, has evolved over time and where gaps still remain in our knowledge. @SEA nevers just says "this is a quaser, thank you for watching my Ted talk" and for that I am thankful.
whenever I'm feeling like shit, a gentle reminder of how small we all are is helpful. There is no better place for that reminder than SEA
Ugh so true. It gives me hope when I look at SEA and other space-related videos. My problems, my anxieties and fears ultimately have just as much meaning as any other human on the planet.
This is by far the best astronomy content I have come across. I have heard I’d quasars many time but never understood the accretion disc. Brilliantly explained.
I really need to know what the thumbsdown people dislike about SEA's videos. Is it his attention to detail? His ability to express complex scientific data in a way that is more accessible? How about his spot on graphics? (I mean, they prompted ME to get SpaceEngine on Steam, but maybe you all don't like excellent graphics?) Or his on point music choices that compliment the graphics and excellent narration?
I am truly puzzled.
The quality of these videos are better than PBS specials when I was a kid... good job
It's amazing how much he's grown past his already great GD content that he started out creating.
Your content is world class good. You should be an official spokesperson for the whole cosmology community. Your tone, diction and choice of words are a joy to learn from and the imagery is mesmorising. Don’t ever stop making these videos.
A most perfect thing for this wet Sunday morning. “Finding patterns in noise”. Many thanks again SEA.
I love you casually gave the most digestible and effective explanation on what redshift is. Thank you very much sir
Bro well done!! You always have really high quality contents, keep it up !
Why didn't I sub to this channel a long time ago? Some of the best astronomy/cosmology documentaries that have ever been made come from this channel. Top notch work.
Damn I love this channel!! This is peace and tranquility and knowledge all in the same place.
👍😂
SEA’s videos are astronomical narcotics I can’t get enough!
Actually that is known medical science: Endorphins
Thank you for making my night awesome
Love your videos. The best space/cosmology content on youtube period. I hope you could do a video explaining string theory too, that would be dope
God i love this channel so much. it really deserves more attention
I'm glad I found it
Best explanation of red shift I've heard. I understand it better now. Im going to subscribe. I look forward to your take on JWST's future findings.
Please never stop making videos - seriously
I've watched... everything, completed it mate. Your channel is literally number one for me out of anything watchable. Not going to lie, I don't fully understand why but it is. I will have watched this video at least 10 times before your next.
Thank you, again.
I'm a simple man. I see a SEA upload, I like it.
I'm a surprise person. I see a joke used a million times and I laugh out loud
I find myself feeling so small and insignificant when watching amazing videos as yours. It goes to show how insignificant we are in this universe. And how one star can outshine all of us In under one second.
Question:
Do you know CGP-Grey?
Veritasium?
Legal Eagle?
Kozmo?
Sci Man Dan?!

Neil Red?
Extremely underrated channel
Spread the word.
Min 4:57 "take this deep photograph of space" is just mind-blowing awesome. The pace of this video and its music is just perfect, and I must have watched it at least a hundred times now
Really well put together. On par with PBS Spacetime.
Keep it up!
With this quality I'm actually surprised that you don't have at least a million subscribers, amazing video as always
I hope you stay safe man, you really help bridge the gap between scientists and the working man
Edit: who tf even dislikes this kind of stuff
man! i think i can speak for everyone. we would love to have a new video every day or every week, but if we need to wait a month for this quality, we're glad to wait.
now, speaking fro myself. your channel is the best on youtube! damn! every video is amazing! i've watched a lot of them multiple times in the last year, since im working from home. the graphic, the content, the voice, the jokes, everything is on point.
thank you, man! honestly, thank you for your work!
PS:i would kill to listen to a conversation between you and dr.brian cox!
I love your content!! I can't believe you out this stuff up on UA-cam for free hahaha
Fantastic video! I have recently discovered this channel and the quality is brilliant!
SEA easily deserves more than 1-2 million subscribers... At least. I've watched all of your videos, again and again. Love from India.
Hey man, I’ve been watching your content for a few months now and wanna say thank you. Especially for this video. I was about 5 years old when i first watched something on Discovery channel related to cosmos, it was About quasars. I was fascinated by it and was waiting for you to do video on this topic. Appreciated ❤️❤️ keep up the good work
Ah yess quasar the bloodlust creator
Few will understand the comment
Of the hundred channels I am subscribed to, your videos are the ones I am most excited to see pop up
This channel is one of my favorite covid discoveries/rabbit holes. thank you
I’m glad you found what you like doing and made it with the intention to put out what you like very much and not only are you very very informative and very unique but very nice to have a video along side a morning waking up or wanting just a chill good time
"What do we name this astral body?"
"Big fucking thing"
Also physicists:
"What do we name this new fundamental particle we discovered?"
"I know, how about that silly word from a poem that's a German curdled dairy product?"
"Quark? Perfect!"
Either that or they headbutt the keyboard
Don't get me wrong. But when some people say that they don't like physics but these youtube channels make them love it, I don't really understand how cause I always loved physics.
But finally I understand them because I never really liked astronomy but this guy makes me love it.
There is only one thing wrong with evidence for SagA* being a former quasar, and that is the belts above and below the galactic center that appear to be the result of a quasar tsunami.
you have outdone yourself again...thank you for educating us!! 💫 quasars are so epic
This channel has taught me so much about the universe. The amount of scripting that goes into each video must be on a cosmic scale itself.
This guy totally rocks it. This and History of the Earth \ Universe are my go to channels. Keep it coming dude.
I really love watching all your videos. They're so informative and relaxing!
Thank you for being the first channel to acknowledge that something billions of light years away like a quasar is something likely not still Occurring because the light we see from it happened billions of years ago.
