Tardigrades: The Surprisingly Sexy Ambassadors Of The Microcosmos | Compilation
Ғылым және технология
You can find the Microcosmos Microscope at microcosmos.store/microscope
If we had to nominate an ambassador to represent the microcosmos, we would have to go with the tardigrade. They’re weird, adorable, and hardy, - a combination of traits that has made them many people’s first entry point into the microcosmos.

The thing that gets me about tardigrades is that they move exactly like other animals - and I just never expected that from something so small. They're like a cross between a newborn kitten and a guineapig ❤
This is just Hank Green ASMR. I feel like I'm learning, but like I need a nap as well.

Oh, absofreakinglutely! I have a playlist of this channel that I play to relax and go to sleep to, myself! I've got a few other sciences channels I use the same way, too. 😂 I'll go find the playlist title for the one which the channel has, already, and the channel name for the other one. ☝🏽

*Historical Geology with Dr. Chris White* is the first science channel. He has all his stuff in playlists of time periods, like Hadrian or Cenezoic. His voice is as relaxing to me as Hank's is. Also, I use the _Systematic Classification of Life_ playlist by Aron Ra in the same way. They're both really relaxing to me, as well. Well, if you don't like Metal, the outro music Aron uses might be a bit of a shock. 😄 But that's just one of the many, many types of music I love, so it's not a bit of problem for me. 😊

They seem pretty big to be the ambassadors of all microscopic life, but maybe their relative largeness makes them accessible enough to interact with in a way required of an "ambassador"

@@aguyonasiteontheinternet578 Because they're really hardy and oddly cute thus the "water bear" part. I also have liked diatoms since high school marine science class, but I wouldn't call them "an ambassador" in any sense.

Maybe because they're well known in comparison to other microorganisms and their shape and anatomy is more relatable to the average person. Ambassador was a figure of speech, I don't think anyone is going to attempt conversation.

@@aguyonasiteontheinternet578 it is an animal that can relate to both us and them. It is like having a translator who speaks both Icelandic and IsiZulu from South Africa. Very different languages and people, yet you have someone who can bridge that gap and help the rwo communicate and understand eachother.
When tardigrade hatched you gave a sigh that a proud father would! Well done guys i do enjoy your educational posts at 60 yrs old, never too late to learn.
would be amazing to see a video on 'plastivores' such as the bacteria found in cow rumen which can digest plastic! Would be so cool, if possible, to see that process up close!

Yes ❤
"menage a troisdigrade" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣 Oh my GOD, Hank. DYING HERE.
I just started working in the water treatment department for my city and I have spotted three tardigrades so far! I usually will try to take a few pictures and short video, which turns into 30 photos and 6-7 minute long videos. They are so interesting to watch!
I watched an episode of "Lloyd of the Flies" (cartoon about a fly and his pillbug bestie) called Hardy Tardy's where they found a tardigrade which to them was hamster sized and thought it died until they found out it was just dehydrated into a cyst. Programmes and books that play with scale (like Land of the Giants and The Borrowers) really grab me.
As a Biologist I can only imagine the work you did for this great video 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👨🏿⚕️👨🏿⚕️👀

For anyone wanting to know more about t-rexes and other dinos, Prehistoric Planet season 2 just came out and all paleo people agree the series is FANTASTIC
36:36 It's amazing how Tartigrades survived for millions of years. And still here strong just imagine how would they evolve
i love when you said that for almost all the history of mankind (that we know of...) we didn't even knew that this world existed. This is mind blowing !
I love hanks narrations! I get sooo disapointed when a video on microcosmos or shishow isnt hosted by him :p !
I love the homunculus theory, it's just so goofy. We still colloquially talk about human conception like it's true, ie "I was the Michael phelps of sperm" hahaha this is my favorite episode you've made so far, Thank you for your work!

So amazing. Thank you so much for sharing this! The birth of a water bear! Wow!
Their pitch black eyes and claws are so cute
They're adorable and the emotions ive felt while watching this was intense. Press on tardigrades we're rooting for you! 🎉
I loved this! So very cool to watch a baby tardigrade hatching!! They’re not only hardy little things that can survive in otherwise inhospitable environments, but they’re also really cute 🥰 I love this channel 😊
2:26 IT’S BAKING BISCUITS!!! 😍😍😍
Lil guys making biscuits 😮 2:23
*Moss Piglets always bring in the views and Microcosmos love!* 😉
I just want to thank you guys for such intimate content. Tardigrades rule.
“…that’s why, when we found the impending mother tardigrade that started this episode, we took so much care to keep her alive” Continues to poke tardigrade in the face hahahahaha
I so wish I could get the JTTM microscope, or any at that. I am currently nearing homeless and it's getting harder and harder every day. But since day one of this channel I've wanted one. The public library lets me use theirs but they only have preserved slides and I can't bring my own without a teacher's note. Thank you, Hank, James, and Patrons for allowing this content to be free. Me and my 3yo nephew love you guys🧡

Tardi-greats!

Absolutely anyone who knows me, knows how totally and hopelessly dotty I am over My Tardies! I'm head over heels for these creatures. My daughter even got me a stuffed Tardi for xmas! This held my rapt attention for the entirety because~TARDIGRADES! 💖💖💖 Hello 👋 from 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
That was such fun! Always something interesting happening inside a drop of pond scum.
Tardigrades make great pets, and they're easy to train.
The baby is just so adorable!!!! 🧡
I love the attention to detail
This is the coolest channel!!! I love it 🥰 thank you so much for all of your work 🥹❤️
The one from Startrek Discovery was cool 😎
Thank you patreon people. You are amazing. And thank you micro cosmos.
I feel like I should buy you guys a card and some flowers or something. Sadly I don't think they make cards that say, "it's a tardigrade!"
Спасибо за вашу любовь к микрокосмосу ❤️
I loved this journey! I couldn’t stop watching.
Please never stop making these vids ☘️🍃🌿🍀🌱🫧🪷🪸
6:20 This is clearly hubble telescope images, or other telescope.
Yay for compilation videos!! They are my favorite kind of video!!
I’m makin an alien world and on it a meteorite with some of these fellas crashed, and they end up evolving!
Awesomely amazing wow!!!! Thank U so very much!!!❤😮
Never thought I would ever tear up over a tardigrade, yet here we are.
Menage-a-trois-degrade LOL ... not too much!
Anyone else notice that blur knock the hatching tardigrade around at the end?
This was amazing !
I loved this. Watched every minute intently.
Gosh, I really just love this channel.
I just stood in my bedroom cheering for a tardigrade that hatched. Thank you. ❤😂
Your videos always amaze me, but this was so cool!
14:24 😆 🤣 😂 *No, not too much......... perfect actually!!*
You got me on the manjetardegrade
My sister has a phobia of these. I don't see why she wouldn't be. They're like a caterpillar bear and their faces look alien.
I luv both your style of serene and crash course...
Awesome video!! ❤
This is just asmr of hank green being a remorseful god to a micro verse of martian dogs
Always fascinating!
These videos are soothing and beautiful to watch
That was REALLY cool. Thanks.
wow amazing work. this is so so cool :)
lmao nice skim with the microscope deal
Amazing videos keep it up
LOL. menage-twardigrade! i giggled!
What a great subject! What a great channel!
Oh, let's name this baby tardigrade, Teensy !
Tardigrades are soo cool. They make me question everthing we take for granted, like vision. Water bears dont have eyes like organs, but a small light detecting cells. Id like to understand how that correlates to their response to the enviroment. Surley they dont perceve light the way we do, do they? This video is very interseting just from the perspective of novelty. Only four tardigrade species have been observed while the relese of spermatozoa in exuviae.
I can't get over how in the first video, Hank sounds so much like Mike Rugnetta
So cool! Two questions: why are they seem transparent? And why do they often seem to be swimming in place?
The first time in my life, my comment number maybe close enough to one on something that I can say "hi Hank". I am very excited about both that and everything about tardigrades.

Is there a video explaining exactly what we're seeing inside the body of the tardigrade?
Hello! Got the microcosmos microscope. A phone-mount tutorial would be very helpful!
could you maybe make a video about how larger animals can evolve their way into the microcosm? they
18:55 What are the long wormy-dealie-like things whipping around the tardigrades?
Wowowow i remember when this channel was new man
WAIT THIS IS ANDREW HUANG MUSIC YOOOOO I WOULDA NEVER KNEW

Where can I find the soundtrack of your videos ?
Is it in REAL TIME ? or accelerated ? slowed down ? Thanx for this nice video.
I would love to learn to do this

What is the easiest way to collect a water bear from a pond to scope?
no why, i was just looking for a microscope :)
I find it so weird that everything around it is a blob or stick. And then you have this everyday fella just walking around. Why is it the only full sized creature in the micro cosmos?
Coming out of thier eggs and they've been doing just fine
greatest idea ever to send a barely understood life form to a little understood celestial body having only a primitive understanding of what life means.
What would be a good magnification to spot them?
Make a video explaining the pros and con of your kicroscope you are for sale please
I can't believe everything I come across, even frickin microrganisms are getting some action but me. Lucky bastards.
What a fantastic idea! I wish humans had babies this way [I had four children]
Anybody has the reference of the 2016 Goerlitz paper?
Wow
