@@GammaFields Actually, in the relatively small number of stars pointing their rotation axes in the right direction (our way) AND close enough to have a significant effect, it very much is a question of IF not WHEN. The population of suitable progenitor stars is fairly small, and the timing and orientation requirements are quite stiff. It is very definitely an IF. That one of the 6 or 7 largest extinctions does not have a *detected* terrestrial explanation doesn't mean there wasn't one - just that nobody has worked it out. Yet. Plus, of course, the necessary evidence might have disappeared down a subduction zone. Meantime, we are, as a species, reproducing the causes of the #6 mass extinction, but doing it faster and harder than nature did. Which doesn't seem to worry people enough to actually *do* anything about it.

Imagine traveling to another star and accidentally flying into a dormant black hole because you had no idea it was there until it was too late since the gravity is too strong already

@cheeeeezewizzz

11 күн бұрын

Very unlikely. The gravitational reach of a black hole isn't any greater than that of the star which formed it. The total amount of gravity excerted is the same, just highly concentrated the further you get towards the center. For instance if the sun were to suddenly be replaced by a black hole of the same mass tomorrow and continue rotating as normal the entire solar system would just continue as usual, just in darkness. You would feel the gravity from any black hole WAY before you got anywhere near the event horizon even in space. Now, you might have trouble if it's one of the theorized rogue black holes that are just flying around the galaxy, those things supposedly move really fast. Could totally intercept your course out of nowhere conceivably before course corrections could be done to avoid it.

Many Thanks Anton for keeping my interest in Astronomy alive. I thoroughly enjoy all your videos.

@@vladskiobi Of coarse. They work for free and don’t care about anyone around them.

The ending wave with a smile has become a great cap to each episode. It reminds me that although fields like astronomy and physics are very serious toned, it's perfectly fine to enjoy them. The Cosmos is a very cool thing.

Love the "Terminator-style" attempt at a smile at the end.

So they Finally found planet X

Planet X-ray!

There are no "huge" BHs only stellar mass and supermassive. Informally intermediate mass and ultramassive are used.

Excellent science...congratulations Anton

Very exciting to have this type of black hole in relative proximity. Can't wait for detailed observations of the system.

🎉🎉🎉

Anton delivering science news always puts me to sleep, and I love science.

What about finding Planet Nine, which is surely a mug-sized black hole by searching for its likely satellites? Hard, I know, but we should not expect such a massive object to not have some moons, after all it's suppossed to weight x10 earth masses, right? Black holes everywhere, I love it!

That's really amazing news my friend! How are you and your wife? Everything is ok?

This is fricking fascinating!

Wow! This is a really interesting video.

I AM planet X and i approve this video.

Thank you Anton

I know just enough about space to know that when something in space is “near,” there’s practically never anything to worry about.

Thank you 😊

It is scary to think there could be black holes everywhere around us just sitting there undiscovered.

Thankyou wonderful Anton

Quick thought... Could ancient apocalypse stories of anything along the lines of "the dark one came from below the earth" mean an unseen asteroid/meteorites that cause catastrophic events? The wording of ancient texts, and how it has been translated and transcribed over history especially, intrigues me.

very unlikely, considering how much evidence those sorts of events would leave. that line in particular actually makes me think of volcanic activity far more, which I would think is far more likely, as we know of plenty of examples of people being killed by volcanoes (Pompeii anyone?)

I sometimes imagine anton signing off cheerfully after confirming the inbound alien armada

Shivers down spine, Neil Peart drumming!!

Thank you so much for your presentation style. I like how you give us the information and oh my God do you give us some amazing information in a way that even a simpleton like myself can digest and even if it goes over my head the way you present it is enjoyable and I really appreciate that it encourages me to go to the library and study things that I don't understand and what I really appreciate and I don't want to underestimate this at all I really appreciate that you're not the standard person on KZread that's always begging for subscriptions and begging for views I appreciate that you are providing information and it enjoyable experience for what it is and for that I thank you I truly appreciate what you are doing and for that I love and send my ever loving thanks for what you are doing

Awesome!!!

TY Anton

I hope this isn't way off topic but there's a theory floating around that we actually live inside of a black hole since our universe is ever-expanding and black holes are gobbling stuff up and getting larger someone is saying that we actually live inside of a black hole kind of makes sense since we can't see the past the horizon
