Now add to that Graphene Spintronics and Graphene Twistronics, and Graphene Aerogels made in space to revolutionize the way we explore space, all seen on my other channel. A huge mistake people make is going to other sources for this info instead of what's shown on my other channel first in the link from my other comment. Graphene Twistronics can be a super conductor which we don't know a lot about, or insulator. There's also Quantum Computers like Graphene - Photonic Quantum Computers, Quantum Teleportation "used for The Quantum Internet coming by 2030 and as it matures with breakthroughs will be for advanced particle replicators for food replicators, clothes replicators, vehicle replicators, building / structure replicators, and sending things like a duplicate of your computer to other planets like mars and beyond our solar system", the Quantum Microscope, Quantum Sensors, Quantum Simulations, Quantum Entanglement, Quantum 2D Materials. There have been a lot of breakthroughs with warp drives / warp bubbles, seen in the STL playlist on my other channel, don't forget to check out the Time Crystals playlist below the Anton Petrov video, other videos in that Time Crystals playlist talk about using the latest matured Time Crystals as of 2021 to early 2022 and beyond for unlimited energy. Think about a Graphene sphere around the Time Crystal for 3 reasons. 1. To keep the Time Crystal from melting. 2. Graphene allows the Time Crystal to move around and reshape its original form. 3. Graphene is our best electrical conductor, it can transfer the energy to other devices. Take that a step further with a Graphene sphere, Graphene Twistronics and a Time Crystal, and convert the electricity (electron) particles into artificial Photon particles for Photonics = light based energy, and have it as Graphene - Photonics sent to other devices in a home / building and through space ships devices and for other things on the space ships. Supposedly Graphene used for a solar sail, would open other fields of research for a Photonic space ship, or as I would call it a Garphene - Photonic space ship. Dr. Erik Lentz has a new theoretical warp drive that would use positive energy such as Soliton particles, he has worked on the calculations to get the amount of energy required down to the size of the earth, and Sonny White from Nasa has got the negative energy required for older theoretical warp drives down to 700 kg "the size of an elephant, car, or voyager space probe", yes for the warp bubble. A lot of exciting breakthroughs. We need to get rid of silicon, plastics, copper and other things so that we can replace them with Graphene. Yes I'm aware of the scale up methods but we actually have new methods over the past 2 years that people can research. Don't listen to naysayers and their naysayer videos, most of these have old information about Graphene and they haven't updated their research. Graphite is stacked layers of Graphene, and Graphene is just one layer of pure carbon atoms. If you look outside at the grass, trees and plants, and at the plants / animals on land and in the water, they all have carbon in them. We are made of about 15 - 25% carbon, and we eat carbon in our foods. Graphene is completely safe for us and the environment.

For the gravity question - the equation for gravitational effect has the product of the masses of the two objects and a constant being divided by the distance squared. G(M1*M2)/d^2 This leads to the distance quickly causing whatever the product is on top to becoming irrelevant if the distance gets too high since a square function scales up much faster than simple multiplication. There will always be some gravitational effect, but it becomes so small as to not be noticeable at a certain point.

It may also be that things aren't traveling faster than the speed of light. We know that gravity has an effect on light and since we've never been outside of even our own solar system, let alone the galaxy, we don't know if the speed of light is faster than what we're seeing within the gravity well of our galaxy and solar system. Yes, the speed of light is calculated based on the measured speed within a vacuum. However, even if we create a vacuum here on earth, that vacuum is influenced by the gravity of the earth, the sun, and the galaxy. Would the massive gravity well that is the Milky Way Galaxy have an effect on the speed of light that travels between the galaxies? Without physically being out there to measure it, we can't know for sure how much of an effect it has. So, for all we can possibly know for sure, they're "expanding" faster than the speed of light measured within the massive gravity well of the galaxy. Can you move faster than the speed of light? Theoretically, tachyons move faster than the speed of light. So, the speed of light limit may just be the next speed limit to be surpassed.

You just touched upon arguably the most elusive mystery in the Theory of Relativity... GRAVITY!

The expansion of the universe is said to be faster than the speed of light, although its technically not "speed" the universe is what allows speed to exist, it is both the distance and time. The universal expansion is just the increase in space between objects, very mind melting but cool fact.

Nothing can move faster than light... through space. Space does not move through itself, and is not restricted by the same law. Having said that, no part of the universe is actually currently moving faster than the speed of light, it just seems to from our vantage point. For example, if our neighbor was moving away from us by 1 meter per day, and his next neighbor was moving away from him by 1 meter per day, then his next neighbor would appear to be moving away from us by 2 meters per day. Apply this to the universe and it's easy to see how parts of the universe could be moving away from us faster than the speed of light, but not actually be moving faster than the speed of light.

The universe is 13,7 billion years old. If universe expands with the speed of light the radius would be 13,7 billion light years which it is not. The radius is 46,5 billion light years, this means that the universe expands much faster than the speed of light.

@@reineh3477 First of all, you didn't pay attention at all to what I said, or didn't understand it. There is a reason I gave an example as to how the universe can appear to expand faster than light without actually doing so. Second, I never said that it never did at any point, which is why I also have the qualifier in there that things cannot move through space faster than light, but space itself does not have that restriction. At the very beginning, just after the big bang, it definitely expanded faster than light, then slowed down, then gradually began speeding up again. The current expansion rate is 'not' faster than light, but distant places 'appear' to move faster than light because, over a great enough distance, those local expanding spaces add up and push the distant ones away from each other faster than light, even though nothing is actually going that fast. With all of space expanding, and making new space to expand, it can be 13.7 billion years old and be larger than 13.7 billion light years across without anything ever expanding faster than the speed of light. You're taking it as if it expands 1 light year per year in total, but it doesn't. If we start with 1 light year and it expands to 2, then those 2 light years would each expand by 1 light year into 4, then into 8, then 16, where as in your thoughts it would only be at 5 at that point. That is the difference between what you thought I said and what I actually said.

So glad to see you back!

A simple yet crazy example There are more stars in the known universe than every single grain of sand on Earth

As for the part about places in the universe and their light never reaching us because they are traveling away from us faster than the speed of light! I believe this is not because they are traveling faster than the speed of light but because we are both traveling in opposite directions, both at less than the speed of light. An easier way to help people to picture it is like this; if two cars collide head on and both were travelling at 60mph then that would be an impact speed of 120mph. If the cars are heading away from each other in opposite directions then the gap between them is increasing at 120mph, despite the fact that neither car is travelling at the speed at which they are moving away from each other. Sorry for the essay a and my not so perfect grammar but I hope this makes sense.

I love the idea too that all the stars we see with naked eye is in Milky Way. But there are slight excpetions, supernovas, they can shine upon us from much farther away. A gamma ray burst from 7 billion years away was visible for naked eye, for example.

You are correct about the expansion theory, but conversely, there is also the collapse theory, where just as fast as the universe is expanding, it will collapse back on its self at a compounded rate of speed to create a new Singularity. Physics is crazy, wish I was one of those minds that could actually grasp quantum theory and string theory etc. I suggest reading Brian Greene, Michio Kaku, Neil deGrasse Tyson etc... They make things easily digestible.

One way to partly grasp the number of stars in our galaxy is to think of a large sports stadium which seats 100,000 people. Now imagine that once per second, all those people vanish and are replaced with different people. To get to 100 billion people you need to keep doing this for just over 11 days. Given that number of stars/planets, it's almost inconceivable that there's no life elsewhere in the galaxy. We don't know how difficult it is for life to arise on a planet, but it appears to be relatively easy given how rapidly life appeared on Earth once it had cooled enough for life to survive (a few hundred million years). After that, the big barriers appear to be the arrival of multicellular life (which took around 3 billion years on Earth) and intelligent life (which took another 500 million years). With any reasonable guesses for the difficulty and time required for these steps, they almost certainly didn't happen on just one planet in the entire galaxy. It's unlikely that there's life out there several billion years older than Earth as you need at least two generations of stars to produce enough elements heavier than hydrogen and helium for rocky planets with life on them to form. Even so, life could easily have formed a billion or more years ago. That does then lead to the question of where everyone is. With self-replicating probes travelling at 10% of the speed of light, you could cover the entire galaxy in just 1 million years. Constructing probes like this is beyond us at present, but they're in the plausible near-future rather than being impossible.

10:58 I think it's possible. I don't know if it is. As you said Time is a huge factor as well. It really is not just the 'fastness of space', but the 'fastness of space and time'. 18:54 we can not reach many of those places, even if we make it our only goal as the full human race and out all the effort into science.

14:05 So it's expanding slower then the speed of light, but it's doing so *everywhere* at once. So the overall effect is that light from further and further away will never reach us, because the space between us and them will keep expanding cumulatively faster then light can cross that distance. To understand this make a line of dots with equal distance between each dot on a ballon with a marker, then inflate it. The dots furthest away from each other move apart faster then the dots closer together. But the balloon itself is expanding at a constant rate. Now expand this to a whole universe...

Sounds like the universe keeps playing a never-ending game of Hold my Size with its titanic structures to me *shrugs*

Gravity has an effect at infinite distance, although in reality, once you get past the Lagrange points, it’s practically zero.

Ya, the problem with space travel in general is that the distances everything is at, makes it nearly impossible unless you are going for a generational ark type of space ship. Because even at light speed we are talking over 4 years just to get to the nearest neighboring star. And the chances of us even being able to travel at that speed is pretty much zero. And even the whole ark thing would really only work for the closest stars too us. And with how unlikely it is to find a suitable planet to live on, what would even be the point? Some sort of warp, is pretty much a requirement if you want to do any meaningful amount of space travel.

Not exactly you dont need a warp just need to go faster than light. How do you do this well the universe gives us a hint in the form of black holes since the gravity they create light can't even escape but how does this help? Well if you were able to create a machine that can control gravity that's built in to the ship. It needs to do 3 things first use gravity to make a field around the ship second it needs to increase gravity behind the ship to propel the ship and decrease gravity in front of the ship to decrease drag. yes drag exist In space. And actually a accidental discovery of how to do this has happened but as it's not part of the research being done so no ones paying right now to further research it.

@@Cody.Wright To be honest, I consider that a type of warp (in fact believe it's traditionally known as a warp drive due to Star Trek). Also, your description is a bit inaccurate. You are not propelling the ship, nor are you using gravity to decrease drag. The idea is you are using gravity to bend space behind and in front of the ship in such a way to make distances shorter. Basically it's kind of like you are moving space around your ship rather than moving the ship itself.

NASA has found dozens of planets outside of our solar system that are within what we call the Habital Zone of their respective stars. Habital Zone meaning that life could exist. With each of these planets they've sent probes to go and find if it's a possible place for us to colonize eventually or if there are life forms on the planet. One probe I know of was sent in 2009, but it won't reach the destination for at least 10 more years.

2:28 No, not Aldrin and Armstrong. I'm not 100% sure who it is, but since the guy on the left is having the red "Commander of the Mission" stripes on his suit, it is Apollo 14 or later. The stripes were first introduced with Apollo 13 (which did not land due to the accident) after NASA figured out after Apollo 11 and 12, that it was somewhat hard to tell two astronauts wearing basically identical spacesuits apart in photos and videos, so starting with Apollo 13, the commander had red stripes on his suit and helmet.

About aliens...I think time is as important as geography. There is a series on British TV hosted by Brian Cox (the planets) that discusses that Venus and Mars in history were better places for life than earth at different points in time. In theory an entire biosphere could have developed on each, civilizations rose and fell...but after x billion years there is no longer any trace that any of it ever existed. Or maybe they were always just rocks

16:15 the nightsky wouldnt change much since we see stars and nearby galaxies in the nightsky we dont lose them if the small cluster is locked to another cause of gravity

How far away to have no gravitation effect? Well, that depends on the mass of the objects, but I'm sure there is a formula for that to calculate it.

I think it's statistically very likely that there's life somewhere else in the universe.. we may never confirm it but it would be very improbable that we're alone in this universe.

Ya more so if number of sand grains on the earth times 150,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 is how many stars there are.

It's not true that the universe will continue to expand forever, it's predicted that it will start to contract, but that'll be about a hundred million years from now.

Going to Mars... Infographics did a video on this. About the problems involved in doing so. About five months ago, I think.

14:00 From how I understand it, no conventional matter/energy can travel faster than the speed of light. However, spacetime is a field and can expand and contract beyond that speed.

there could be like another 1000 or more planets full of life in our own galaxy alone but they just like us have the same issue of not even existing long enough and haven't been able to come up with a way to go far enough from their own planet to come in contact with another life filled planet so we all think we are alone

I think the most underrated question in life is, Will we even be born on Earth again, what if the whole universe is a spawn point...

just wanted to say I think the idea of getting a voyager 1 tattoo is pretty dope. especially for a viking descendant. when ever I see a picture of Voyager it brings to mind all of the great explorers throughout history and our species comprehension and thirst for exploration. as well as the metaphysical ideas of reaching for the stars, never settling, never giving up, willingness to go the extra mile and the willingness to not be defined, confined, maligned or enslaved.

Fun thing I heard is that there is a theory about the Warp speed from Star Trek that might work in order to bend the area in front of the shuttle in a speed close to the speed of light. If we could bend the area in front of the shuttle it could accelarete further than the speed of light based on the area being bent.... so in theory if you bend an area 2 times the length of the shuttle you could go double the speed of light.... Now if you could bend more area in front of the shuttle you can go further and faster.... Either that -or understanding black holes or wormholes then we're talking! :)

Love that Sagan quote "a mote of dust, suspended in a sun beam" a mote...of dust... that is literally what we are. Do aliens exist? of course they do... we are the aliens.

This truly makes me feel what I and all the rest of humanity our planet, the whole solar system are just a grains of sand in the Universe.

3:08 Actually, it would be a MASSIVE SERIES OF PROBLEMS 😅. It takes 6 months to go, 6 months to come back, and there's a whole year in between that you can't come back because the Earth would be behind the Sun and communications take 20 mins to do the round-trip. We struggle to put people on the moon and it's only 3 days away… Imagine the size of the rocket to store all the food, water, oxygen, training gear (1 trip being literally 4x longer than the average ISS trip), etc. And whoever gets on board better be reaaaally good friends because they'll probably live in a super cramped space for 6 months, live together on a foreign planet for 12, and live in the super cramped space again for another 6 months. The list of problems just goes on and on and on…

The thought I like is that as we are part of the universe (we and everything are made from star dust), we are the seeing and thinking part of the universe trying to understand itself 🤷🤕👍. I feel sure there must be billions of planets out there with intelligent life on them, circumstance and probability and pure luck must have created billions of different species, frustrating that we don't know for sure though. ❤️🇬🇧

as far i understand it the furthest the gravitational effect of the solarsystem reaches is the Oort cloud ( mathematicly ) after that no one knows wahts up. but save to say gravitation is everwhere in some form.

The amount of gravitational force an object has on another object depends on it's mass...

The first people on Mars will never return. Because their bodies will change too much and it'll be pretty impossible for them to come back.

Where did they get that picture of the the lager universe from? From that probe they sent out into space in the 70's?

The closer Question might be, if there is life in our Solarsystem when you also take microbiological life into account. We allready found organic components at some of jupiters moons, which are spit into the athmosphere by ice vulcanos. The icy moon most likely have a great ocean under the ice. Or was it one of Saturns moons? Not 100% sure about that at the moment.

Space is expanding faster than the speed of light from any local point of observation when you go far enough away from said point. If you freeze time and shift your point of observation from this to the end of the universe, in a frozen time perspective, and then continue physical processes you will not move faster than the speed of light at that point. We for example are also expanding away from someone elses point of observation far enough away, faster than the speed of light which is means they will never detect our light again or never detected it in first place.

There could be intelligent life scattered all around in the milky way galaxy. It's just with how vast everything is. The chances of us finding one another is extremely slim.

With how extensive the universe is there has to be aliens

“Nobody knows everything except some unknown known know it all” James Joyce Finnigan’s Wake

The universe's expansion work like stretching a rubber band so since everything is moving away from everything else. So if you are moving away from an obejct at the speed of light, that object will also be moving away from you at the speed of light. Now that ebing said, the distance between both object will increase by twice the distance light travels in given amount of time. So if a beam of light is shined from here to there, it will never be able to reach it in an infinite amount of time, because the distance in between grows twice as fast.

No matter how incredibly small the Earth is, there are people such as 'Simple Viking' who interrupt and take over conversations, as if their words matter. So egos, are bigger.

That actually wouldn't help at all with any kind of currently known technology. We would still be unable to transmit a signal faster than the speed of light. That's not something we can crunch down upon by putting relays in between. The reason for me saying "currently known technology" is the concept of warping space to move something at a speed faster than light.

2:10 Fun fact: you can also fit all planets between the Earth and the Moon with Pluto and there'll still be a little room to spare 🤓.

The speed of light thing can be a bit confusing if you do not have a complete understanding of it. In simplicity the speed of light limit is confined to objects with mass and objects that interact with the quantum field. It does not apply to space and time itself, the universe is basically creating new space faster then then light can traverse the distances, it is not that the two galaxies are moving away from each other it is that new space is being made between them faster then light.

18:54 You won't be so depressed to realize that we could possibly manipulate black hole technology to create wormholes to other galaxies. Plus there's antimatter to use for space travel to go at 1g acceleration.

Humans would be able to do inter galactic travel if and only if our civilization would find a way to create or discover a wormhole or create a warp drive in the next million years or so.

The Apollo missions made use of the gravitational forces of the Earth and the Moon. They let themselves "fall" towards them, which saved fuel which they only needed to correct their course and bring themselves in orbit or escape the gravity fields. These astronauts are not Armstrong and Aldrin. You can see that because the right astronaut stands next to the antenna of the Moon rover. Only the last few Apollo missions had a rover with it to expand their range to do research on the Moon. I believe there's life elsewhere within our Galaxy, but we might never actually know about it.

The next space video you should react to is time lapse of the entire universe. Then the next one is Time lapse of the future a journey to the end of time then maybe The secret history of the moon.

I always find it odd that it's even suggested we might be alone in the universe. there's this weird phenomenon that infects our mindset when it comes to our understanding of who and what we are as human beings. it's likely a protective measure employed by our brains to suppress anxiety and existential thread. it manifest itself when we study the animal kingdom, we image ourselves outside observers, rather than a member of the anima kingdom studying itself. so because we are us, here on earth, we look out into the galaxy and wonder if life exist, as if we are something seperate looking into a seperate thing. when we colonize Mars and a martian is born he would look out into the galaxy and wonder if life like him exist. his attention would then be directed towards earth where he would discover life does in fact exist, he would have undeniable proof for the existence of life, he would know with 100 percent certainty that the universe is capable of creating life and has even done so. also life is not constrained to one form, it comes in many different forms, from virus and bacteria to complex organisms, from aquatic beings that live in water to tiny flying insects. now that this thought experiment is over and out martian friend disappears what has really changed?

You’re correct that the universe is expanding faster than the speed of light, but it’s not moving necessarily. Think of any two points on a balloon as points in space. As you inflate the balloon the two points don’t move away from each other, the space between them grows.

Gravitation has ALWAYS an effect on anything. doesnt matter if u are 1km or 1 Quadrillion km away. BUT...Gravitation is the weakest of the 4 forces AND Gravitation looses power by the square (sorry if not correct, im not a native speaker so maybe some translation issues here) so the farther u go away the more and more less powerfull it gets. But it has always an effekt even though after a certain distance its so minor it doesnt count anymore (like the earth in comparism to proxima centauri or smth because a) proxima is a star and much more massive and b) earth is far away, but it has an effect although its so small not even meassurable)

To the alien life in our galaxy question: here is how I see it: The Milky Way is 100 000 ly in diameter - the light from one edge needs 100 000 years to reach the other one. Human civilization is about (charitably) ~10 000 years old. And we started exploring space properly just 50-ish years ago. The lag in observation is enormous - even the closest star to us, we see it as it was 4 years ago. Even the Sun we see what it looked like 8 minutes ago.

Hey, Can you do geography now with Norway?

Einstein is still right about the fact that it is impossible to go faster than light (different speeds in differents i envionments tho, like on earth a good example is water, that is why you don't see the fish where it exactly is, the speed of light decreases in water, so 300kmh per second is with no atmosphere etc). But "cosmic speed limit only refers to the motion of physical objects through space, from one point in the Universe to some other point. So in general, the expansion of space has nothing to do with moving objects, and is in no way limited by the velocity of light."
