These videos just keep getting better and better. The perspective shots are amazing, especially the cargo ship next to Hale-Bopp. The view from Washington was breath-taking!
Interesting fact: Mark Twain was born when Halley's Comet was visible in the sky. He predicted that he would die when it returned. Sure enough, 75 years later Twain died the same year Halley came back.
@@mm72213 I'm pretty sure the Mark Twain thing is true. If you're wondering about my Heaven's Gate comment, I was trying to make a joke like "Twain was riding comets before Heavens Gate" or something since that was part of their whole belief.
Watching your animation skills progress over the years has been fantastic-some real WOW moments in this video! Love the first person type views youve doing! Awesome work!!!
I remember all the hype when Shoemaker-Levey hit Jupiter. There were people who thought it was gonna ignite the planet and turn it into a star! I also remember when Hale Bopp came through, though at that time it got famous for a different reason. That little man going right up and touching it made me shiver a bit, ngl. Your presentation has stepped up so much in this video, im really impressed! All the little tidbits of information were really great. Good job!
I love how the music switches between epic and menacing. Which is appropriate since comets are simultaneously very beautiful but also some of the most dangerous things in the solar system.
I loved it in the Time video, where the increasingly dramatic music can't go any higher or depict the meaning of the increasing scale, and simply fades out.
A science function author created the idea of space travel, satellites, and landing on the moon. What do you know, fiction became reality, or say they say!

I've been lucky to have been born in 82... I was lucky enough to see Halley's Comet in 1986 when I was 4. Didn't understand it completely but I remember it happening and my mum talking to me about how special it is to be seeing it. I also remember the Jupiter impact of Shoemaker-Levy in 1994 when I was 12. We watched it on live broadcast on a news special. Then in 97 when Hale-Bopp went past, I remember standing on the beach where I lived and getting a really clear view of it as there were no streetlights etc, and the sky was clear. Amazing to see the streak of white across the blanket of stars.
The video quality keeps getting better video after video. Great job with the Churyumov-Gerasimenko comet view of the Rosetta mission. Also, the music was superb.
What you failed to mention about the Pilae lander is that it bounced off the surface of the comet and came back down hours later on its side. The cold gas thruster on the top meant to help keep it pinned to the surface after contact so the drills on the legs could attach it to the surface failed to fire.
A cinematic masterpiece, from the destruction scene to the cargo ship crewman touching the comet which makes us feel the sheer size of the celestial object, and to the final view all the way from Washington 200 miles away.
Fantastic vid. I saw Halley's Comet in 1986. It was visible from within the city I lived in, despite light pollution and cloud cover. I was twenty three years old. In another cosmic blink, I'll be gone back to the stars myself.
Not only an epic score to go with this but amazing movie-like cinematography. Your other videos have been nuts but this takes production up 1,000x! Also, comets!
I've been watching your channel for years, and this is one of the coolest videos you've ever done. I especially love the breaks in between the city-scale comparisons to focus more on select objects. Excellent work, can't wait to see what you do next.
As someone who follows those objects and their missions, That was the most epic thing I think I have ever seen. Thankyou. from Australia. Shared by default 😀
I'm really enjoying the new style of little tidbits of information and different animations of the comets flying through space. This is really cool. Keep it up!
It's not even the size that really matters. It's the velocity with which the comet hits. Even ignoring special relativity, mass scales linearly while speed scales quadratically.
Your animation and editing skills have improved greatly throughout the years and dare I say this was one of your best works yet. Thoroughly impressed with this presentation. You just earned yourself a subscriber!
I absolutely love your videos. The way you highlight the sheer scale of these objects makes my mind implode. Also the music is the icing on the cake. Makes me feel like I’m watching a high production film. Keep up this fantastic work.
Wow, the detail in this work is stunning. Even the view near the end of the video showing the comets by NYC, as they would be seen from Washington DC, with atmospheric haze and the curvature of the earth's surface accounted for. Excellent work! 👍
I am seriously impressed, your improvement with every single video is inspiring, every time a new video of your own appear the entire day bright with a new light.
Absolutely fantastic video. I remember seeing one of these comets as a child and how mesmerizing it was. It was what made me so interested in astronomy
Better and better every time. The music really highlights the majesty of the presentation, and really great editing and science informations. Visually appealing AND "teaching worthy".
Outdone yourselves. Outdone my high expectations. Truly, truly awesome. The information and animations and music. Superb. It is very difficult to convey scale on this size but you gave it a damn good go and best I've seen.
Very. When the Levy-Shoemaker comet hit Jupiter, scientists at the time said that such an impact, if it happened on Earth, would probably be enough to completely wipe some poor country off the map. Dust and debris thrown up into the atmosphere could also alter the climate enough for a couple of decades and cause a minor extinction event. (For some comparison, the asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs, the Chicxulub impact event, involved an asteroid 10km across.) However, for a planet the size of Jupiter, it basically just shrugged it off like no big deal. In fact, over the ages Jupiter (and the other outer gas giants) probably saved Earth from a great many similar impacts due to its size and gravity drawing a lot of smaller objects into impacting with itself rather than with Earth.
I rarely comment on any videos but this kind of workmanship, just awesome...... It's on next level...but you have created a base level for yourself MBS. NEXT VIDEO SHOULD BE MUCH MUCH HIGHER....... waiting eagerly.
These short sequences where you explain general information about comets and, if given, the space missions assigned to some of them, combined with camera movements to create a sense of scale, are amidst the reasons why you are the very best Scaling-UA-camr. Many others are trying, but you are the one who always delivers. Your videos are as appealing to watch as full-on movies!
I love the presentation of the video and the music fits so well, the music makes it more dramatic I love this!! ❤❤ Tysm for this I can now answer the exams! ❤❤❤❤
WOW have I just not noticed or have you really ramped up your presentation techiques? definitely way more theatrical in effect than I remember the others being!! LOVE THIS! (and the additional animations too!!!!! :)
MBS, espectacular, es ilegal ver esto gratiiiis Ver la evolución de este canal con los años ha sido fascinante La verdad que queda uno sin palabras con tan buena producción
How many times you'll destroy New York?
MetaBallStudios: *YES*
Btw, I had a great fun composing the music for this epic video
It's a canon event 💀
To be fair, NYC is a dumpster fire anyway. Wouldn't be the worst thing to happen, but maybe, since I'd be affected here in PA 😂
It's very spacey, fits in quite well.
New York gets destroyed in everything. It has worse things to worry about probably
The music was absolutely perfect!
The music was composed specifically for this video by Luis Humanoide! I love his adventurous sounding music.
He left a comment, legend
UA-cam will still find a way to copystrike your video... 💀
I'm going to have this on repeat in the background this weekend to make laundry folding more dramatic and suspenseful.
The music certainly lends a cosmic mood to this informative tour!
yeah very Space Mountain
These videos just keep getting better and better. The perspective shots are amazing, especially the cargo ship next to Hale-Bopp. The view from Washington was breath-taking!
Yes it was! I lived in Lynnwood Washington and I and my wife and young son went out to a park to see it. Very memorable!
Makes me really nervous haha
These videos are amazing!!❤💯
Washington DC

I tried way too hard to come up with a stupid Heaven's Gate joke for this piece of trivia
Was that true or are you BSing me on some heavens gate cult?
@@mm72213 I'm pretty sure the Mark Twain thing is true.
If you're wondering about my Heaven's Gate comment, I was trying to make a joke like "Twain was riding comets before Heavens Gate" or something since that was part of their whole belief.
It honestly crazy to think that humans were actually able to land a spacecraft on a comparatively small rock hurtling through space..
Totally agree
Ye
Agreed
The power of mathematics is truly humbling at times when you see it used right. :)
And that that little spacecraft will be there for an unfathomably long time.
Watching your animation skills progress over the years has been fantastic-some real WOW moments in this video! Love the first person type views youve doing! Awesome work!!!

I'd touch a space rock with no heaitation. Fuck space germs. That's so fucking cool
I love how the music switches between epic and menacing. Which is appropriate since comets are simultaneously very beautiful but also some of the most dangerous things in the solar system.
When they have a ring you know their disaster level is dragon, probably on the level of planet destroyer.
I loved it in the Time video, where the increasingly dramatic music can't go any higher or depict the meaning of the increasing scale, and simply fades out.
As far as I know, no science fiction author would ever think about the idea of a comet having rings. The universe is mindblowing.
We know more about Venus than we do about the rest of space

You are really lucky my friend, stay healthy.
I was 23 in 86'. Stood in my girlfriend's city street gawping at the heavens.
The video quality keeps getting better video after video. Great job with the Churyumov-Gerasimenko comet view of the Rosetta mission. Also, the music was superb.
This is no longer a "simple" size comparison video. This is now a true educational stuff, and I love it. Keep it up.
Metalball raises the bar yet again.
Mmm, meatballs.
💯💯❤️
MetalBall really picked up their production values lately, their videos are insane
MetalBall?
One of your best yet, Meta, personal highlight being the perspective shot from D.C. looking out towards New York.
That WAS a nice touch, agreed!
Dude your animation skills keep getting better. Good stuff as usual! ☄️
The quality of the videos is getting better and better. Good job!

"Failed" to mention lol
The music is totally!! It makes the whole thing feel like a movie! Really loved the whole video! :D
A cinematic masterpiece, from the destruction scene to the cargo ship crewman touching the comet which makes us feel the sheer size of the celestial object, and to the final view all the way from Washington 200 miles away.
Amazing video! All the small cinematics and info took it to the next level 😊
I really liked this approach! Seeing the history and missions interacting with them really helped set the scale
I'm completely in love with your current content. These videos are like an incredibly immersive experience
Wow, the music was so cinematic! I really enjoyed it! Thank you for your awesome work as always!

This is truly magic man... You are inspiring generations with your work, and you will be remembered for decades, not if centuries....
Man, your videos just keep getting better and better. All these animations had to have taken an enormous amount of work! Nicely done!
I'm really enjoying the new style of little tidbits of information and different animations of the comets flying through space. This is really cool. Keep it up!
It's not even the size that really matters. It's the velocity with which the comet hits. Even ignoring special relativity, mass scales linearly while speed scales quadratically.
That's just what people with small comets say to compensate.
Ooohhh!! Okay smarty pants!!!😅😅😅😅
Are you saying that energy equals mass times the velocity squared?
Well, it still needs to be big enough to survive entry. Edit: And mass.

Woah, Big Rock!
Thank you MBS always a pleasure!

I liked the music! It gave the video a cinematic feel
There's no way, this channel is very good, informative and fun. I love watching Metaballstudios destroying the world, it's wonderful 😂
I love the variety of shots/size comparisons and all the extra info on screen. Your videos are the best "size comparison" videos on UA-cam fr
Fantastic video with all the different angles and size references. You're getting even better.
I am seriously impressed, your improvement with every single video is inspiring, every time a new video of your own appear the entire day bright with a new light.
Absolutely fantastic video. I remember seeing one of these comets as a child and how mesmerizing it was. It was what made me so interested in astronomy
Nice! Favorite part was the pan-out for Halley's comet at aphelion with the triumphant score playing in the background.....well done!.
This channel never ceases to amaze
What could have been a run of the mill video turned out to be an eye popping visual feast. The music was also epic! Great work!
You keep making some of the greatest videos on youtube!
Better and better every time. The music really highlights the majesty of the presentation, and really great editing and science informations.
Visually appealing AND "teaching worthy".
This is a great Video Metaballstudios ❤❤👍👍
0:39 feeling both saddened and interested by a “missing” comet was not on my MBS bingo card
I dare say this video is the best creation of this channel. Simply exciting and absolutely captivating.
Your production quality is increasing at an impressive rate!
Happy 11th Year, MetaBallStudios!
That container ship needs to stop messing around with Comets and get me my imported designer French salad tongs I ordered from Amazon Prime!
That was amazing, one of your best ever!
Man, these videos keep getting better and better!
Absolutely fantastic video, one of your best, great work! 🔥👍
This is the best video yet! Awesome!
Outdone yourselves. Outdone my high expectations. Truly, truly awesome. The information and animations and music. Superb. It is very difficult to convey scale on this size but you gave it a damn good go and best I've seen.
One of your best videos yet.
Un magnifico trabajo, muchisimas gracias.
Spectacular work as always! Thank you, Metaball!
It would be scary if a giant meteorite actually fell.
Very. When the Levy-Shoemaker comet hit Jupiter, scientists at the time said that such an impact, if it happened on Earth, would probably be enough to completely wipe some poor country off the map. Dust and debris thrown up into the atmosphere could also alter the climate enough for a couple of decades and cause a minor extinction event.

@@Zaxares hey, look at the big brain on zaxares
It would actually fall into your house
Flexing those animation skills.
Keep up the awesome work!
Another excellent video. Enjoyed the visuals with haunting Shoemaker comet
The music really sold the video.
Another great video, excellent music, love it!
Wow just wow and im glad to see the new perspectives you are doing in the videos it adds alot to it
Best size-comparison video I've seen. Great sense of scale, fun information tidbits, and awesome music.
Love this channel even if youtube doesn't love me seeing it. Great videos and even if they weren't, great source of music.
I rarely comment on any videos but this kind of workmanship, just awesome...... It's on next level...but you have created a base level for yourself MBS. NEXT VIDEO SHOULD BE MUCH MUCH HIGHER....... waiting eagerly.

Lots of imitators, but nobody does it better than you, man. Please keep it up, love your work.
I follow you since the begining of your chanel, and the quality of your videos has increase a lot, keep it up!!
Dude this is such high quality, it's like the melodysheep of size comparison videos
Excellent video, your animations just keep getting better and better!

The crop-duster from Independence Day going to fight the alien ship?
@Pyroteknikid no, the other thing
@ I keep trying to post emojis but they get deleted. lmao
A second plane has hit the comets…
I dont get it, you were referencing a scene in a movie? 2012?
Wow, your videos just get more and more impressive!!!
Sir you're getting way too good with this, breathtaking work

Ver la evolución de este canal con los años ha sido fascinante
La verdad que queda uno sin palabras con tan buena producción
Excellent video! I loved the POV and the trivia.
Amazing graphics, music and educational tidbits! Fantastic video!
Maybe the best video so far. A real sense of awe about it - helped by that great music.
Wow damn.. quality of your videos is insane in all posible ways
Amazing video as always!
Its really insane and brilliant video!!!
Amazing. The perspective intercuts and dynamic scenes are next level when it comes to comparison videos.
We started with untextured 3D models lined up and now we got full cinematic experiences. Great work!
You really stepped it up with this video! Amazing work!
Wow, you've come a long way from simple size comparisons. The extra animations really elevate this one. Thanks, MBS!
Really well done, bravo. I liked the extra information and pan ins and outs, makes the subject matter much more interesting than just the size.
