It’s time for another episode of Cosmic Queries, where your own personal astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson answers, sight unseen, fan submitted questions chosen by his co-host. This week, Chuck Nice asks Neil questions on a wide variety of topics that we couldn’t answer in other episodes, from alien plant life, to colonizing Mars, to whether velocity could be considered a dimension.
You’ll find out if the constellations would look different from Saturn, whether there’s a north pole to our universe, and why astronomers got the Mily Way’s north pole wrong in the first place. Discover why a stable black hole can’t exist inside a star, and how the expansion of our Sun will affect the Earth. You’ll learn how scientists knew to leave gaps in the periodic table of the elements, and why the moon is spiraling away from the Earth at 5 inches a year. Neil speculates on what the bright spot on the dwarf planet Ceres might be, whether we’ll explore Jupiter’s moon Europa in our lifetimes, and if we’ll find life in its subsurface ocean.
You’ll also hear how NASA inventions led to grooved highway pavement and safer, cheaper LASIK surgery. On the lighter side, Neil and Chuck talk about Neil’s famous vests, the Ship of the Imagination from COSMOS: A Spacetime Odyssey, KZread’s famous “Double Rainbow Guy,” and the wrestling move Neil always wanted to invent which he calls the “Double Tidal Lock.”

@@TerryTeachesTrucking I'm a chemist by education and teach chem in high school, and I love researching astrophysics and quantum physics, which includes watching talks like this. Students are often most amazed by the very big (universe, how stuff on the level of stars works) and by the very small (the peculiarities of the quantum world), so I love answering such questions even if its not that pertinent to the subject at hand. I think one of the most important lessons we as teachers can give is to plant a seed of curiosity in the person. You can't teach every subject and little detail to anyone, much less to someone who deems it useless and boring. My real education started somewhere during university years when I realized that I want to know everything there is to know about the real world, and started spending hours upon hours reading scientific texts. And I still do it - there is so much to learn, and learning feels great! That's the main thing I want to show my students. Knowing stuff feels great, as opposed to be willingly ignorant and proud of it.

Hello from Turkey!

I just love this show. Most entertaining way to learn amazing things & Neil giggling is priceless. Also, HI to the girl in the booth!
I got a question about the Great Worm or Dragon That eats itself: It's a mythological figure. The Oroubouros. Do you science guys think that it might be a crude , pre-historic way to explain that nothing is lost, nothing is gained , everything transforms?

Also....is there a direct correlation between rotation of a star and the revolution of its surrounding planets?
@animistchannel2983
4 жыл бұрын
Only in direction. No matter how fast or slow the star rotates, the planets have to orbit at a speed linked to their distance from the star. This is part of the reason that, as the star system forms, the planets may shift orbits and sling each other around some. A planet moving too fast for its orbit will move outward, and one moving too slow for its orbit will migrate inward. As they cross paths and switch places, they may slow down or speed up each other even more with "slingshot" effects, then restart the process over. Big planets may absorb little ones, or else throw them out into deep space altogether by adding them so much extra speed. As a result, some astronomers have calculated that there may be more rocky planets wandering alone through intersteller space than there are remaining in orbit around stars. Before it settled into the stabilized system we see today, a big gas giant like Jupiter, as it wandered in and out from these interactions, could have slung a dozen earth-sized planets off into the darkness. Some of those "rogue" planets could still have enough heat and tectonic activity being generated by their own core to have liquid water below the surface, and so life could even evolve there, away from any star.
