times 216 00:11:08.640 --> 00:11:10.880 earth 217 00:11:10.880 --> 00:11:14.800 i was the first extra solar terrestrial 218 00:11:14.800 --> 00:11:15.920 planet 219 00:11:15.920 --> 00:11:18.078 to be found 220 00:11:18.078 --> 00:11:21.839 i have a very short orbital period every 221 00:11:21.839 --> 00:11:27.039 20 hours my star i spin around 222 00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:29.920 the density of my planet 223 00:11:29.920 --> 00:11:34.078 is about the same as the earth 224 00:11:34.078 --> 00:11:35.360 that's why 225 00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:38.320 you know i am a terrestrial planet and 226 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:42.120 not a gas giant but what that is worth 227 00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:44.880 astronomers watched my hosts are from 228 00:11:44.880 --> 00:11:48.320 earth and saw a planet in

00:13:39.920 --> 00:13:44.880 on september 8th in 2006 officially 260 00:13:44.880 --> 00:13:46.880 my birthday 261 00:13:46.880 --> 00:13:48.399 i was discovered 262 00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:51.639 by an astronomer named francis t 263 00:13:51.639 --> 00:13:55.120 o'donovan that is for sure first seen on 264 00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:58.320 the transatlantic exoplanet survey or 265 00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:01.839 you could call it trez it's an acronym i 266 00:14:01.839 --> 00:14:05.120 say this all happened in california you 267 00:14:05.120 --> 00:14:08.720 will see at the famous palomar 268 00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:12.480 observatory my discovery also took place 269 00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:15.440 at the low observatory located in 270 00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:16.399 arizona 271 00:14:16.399

come see 306 00:16:03.199 --> 00:16:06.000 my narrow path in which i travel on the 307 00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:09.519 earth surface this is a total solar 308 00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:10.959 eclipse 309 00:16:10.959 --> 00:16:14.320 my totality is on inspiring so don't 310 00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:17.759 miss this this celestial event is called 311 00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:20.959 a solar eclipse let me tell you about it 312 00:16:20.959 --> 00:16:24.000 so you can understand all this a solar 313 00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:27.199 eclipse is caused by the moon that is me 314 00:16:27.199 --> 00:16:29.680 i pass in between the sun and the earth 315 00:16:29.680 --> 00:16:32.000 till black is what you see here are 316 00:16:32.000 --> 00:16:35.440 several stages and some visual tips that 317 00:16:35.440 --> 00:16:38.480 you can use to recognize a total solar 318 00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.560 eclipse stage one is called a partial 319 00:16:42.560 --> 00:16:44.720 eclipse is when the sun's disk is 320 00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:47.199 partially blocked by the moon like this 321 00:16:47.199 --> 00:16:49.680 the stage two is called bailey's beasts 322 00:16:49.680 --> 00:16:51.199 which are bright spots of light it's 323 00:16:51.199 --> 00:16:53.279 when blue lying valleys on the moon's 324 00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:55.040 edge allow sun right through that's 325 00:16:55.040 --> 00:16:57.279 right stage three is sometimes called 326 00:16:57.279 --> 00:16:59.680 the diamond ring the stage is key in 327 00:16:59.680 --> 00:17:02.000 which marks the last few seconds before 328 00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:05.039 totality the last bit of sunlight that 329 00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:07.520 is able to shine through the low-lying 330 00:17:07.520 --> 00:17:10.079 valleys creates a single flash of light 331 00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:12.480 on the side of the moon the fourth and 332 00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:15.520 most important stage is called totality 333 00:17:15.520 --> 00:17:18.079 when the moon completely covers the disk 334 00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:20.240 of the sun this is what you see then 335 00:17:20.240 --> 00:17:22.720 comes the final stages in which the sun 336 00:17:22.720 --> 00:17:25.039 will grow a crescent on the opposite 337 00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:27.039 side of the bailey's beads with one side 338 00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:28.000 shown 339 00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:31.200 but before you see this celestial event 340 00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:33.840 there's a few safety precautions for eye 341 00:17:33.840 --> 00:17:36.960 injuries to prevent this is a total 342 00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:40.480 solar eclipse come see my narrow path in 343 00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:43.200 which i travel on the earth's surface 344 00:17:43.200 --> 00:17:46.960 this is a total solar eclipse 345 00:17:46.960 --> 00:17:50.320 my totality is on inspiring so don't 346 00:17:50.320 --> 00:17:55.520 miss this on monday august 21st 2017 347 00:17:55.520 --> 00:17:57.840 there's a total solar eclipse north 348 00:17:57.840 --> 00:18:01.119 america we'll see but the totality you 349 00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:03.520 want to see can only be observed from 350 00:18:03.520 --> 00:18:05.760 lincoln beach oregon to charleston south 351 00:18:05.760 --> 00:18:08.240 carolina so i've heard the path of 352 00:18:08.240 --> 00:18:11.760 totality is 70 miles why they say seen 353 00:18:11.760 --> 00:18:15.520 in 14 states in the continental us of a 354 00:18:15.520 --> 00:18:18.480 totality lasts a few minutes so be sure 355 00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:20.480 to be there and please use special 356 00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:22.799 safety glasses so your vision isn't 357 00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:25.440 impaired you can buy these special solar 358 00:18:25.440 --> 00:18:28.320 eclipse classes online so protect your 359 00:18:28.320 --> 00:18:31.039 eyes from the sun while having a great 360 00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:34.960 time this is a total solar eclipse come 361 00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:37.760 see my narrow path in which i travel on 362 00:18:37.760 --> 00:18:41.520 the earth surface this is a total solar 363 00:18:41.520 --> 00:18:42.960 eclipse 364 00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:46.320 my totality is on inspiring so don't 365 00:18:46.320 --> 00:18:49.280 miss this a solar eclipse has several 366 00:18:49.280 --> 00:18:52.480 areas we need to discuss take a look at 367 00:18:52.480 --> 00:18:54.720 this picture to learn each part is a 368 00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:57.520 must here's the penumbra a partially 369 00:18:57.520 --> 00:19:00.240 shaded outer region surrounding the 370 00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:03.039 umbra a fully shaded inner part that's 371 00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:05.440 darkened a partial eclipse is what 372 00:19:05.440 --> 00:19:08.240 you're seeing right here when only part 373 00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:10.799 of the luminary of a special body's dark 374 00:19:10.799 --> 00:19:13.760 in there this is a total eclipse it's 375 00:19:13.760 --> 00:19:16.240 red on your screen it's when the hole of 376 00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:18.320 the disc of the sun is covered that's 377 00:19:18.320 --> 00:19:21.520 what it means this is a total solar 378 00:19:21.520 --> 00:19:24.799 eclipse come see my narrow path in which 379 00:19:24.799 --> 00:19:28.000 i travel on the earth surface this is a 380 00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:30.960 total solar eclipse 381 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:34.400 my totality is on inspiring so don't 382 00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:37.120 miss this 383 00:19:37.520 --> 00:19:40.880 i am the sun the center of your solar 384 00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:44.559 system i do erupt intense high energy 385 00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:48.240 radiation this radiation i expel is 386 00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:51.039 called the solar flare you learn about 387 00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:53.679 them in this song and why you should 388 00:19:53.679 --> 00:19:54.720 care 389 00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:56.960 the sun is a ball of plasma like an 390 00:19:56.960 --> 00:19:59.039 extremely hot ocean shape like a wheel 391 00:19:59.039 --> 00:20:01.520 this plasma is pushed around in shape by 392 00:20:01.520 --> 00:20:04.000 the sun's magnetic field when the sun's 393 00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:06.720 plasma swirls around by its magnetic 394 00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:09.119 field it gets twisted and releases 395 00:20:09.119 --> 00:20:11.679 energy around sunspots they are real 396 00:20:11.679 --> 00:20:14.000 this energy released is caused by 397 00:20:14.000 --> 00:20:16.480 magnetic knots when one of these knots 398 00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:19.280 breaks it releases solar flare so you 399 00:20:19.280 --> 00:20:21.840 are taught solar flares are waves of 400 00:20:21.840 --> 00:20:24.960 high-energy radiation shot through the 401 00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:28.080 solar system in which we are all one 402 00:20:28.080 --> 00:20:31.119 these solar flares race to space at the 403 00:20:31.119 --> 00:20:34.320 speed of light creating a solar proton 404 00:20:34.320 --> 00:20:36.960 storm these storms are no delight when 405 00:20:36.960 --> 00:20:39.039 millions of tons of plasma are thrown 406 00:20:39.039 --> 00:20:41.280 from the sun's atmosphere these storms 407 00:20:41.280 --> 00:20:44.000 are called coronal mass ejections as you 408 00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:46.960 see right here these cmes reach speeds 409 00:20:46.960 --> 00:20:49.520 of 5.6 million miles per hour when they 410 00:20:49.520 --> 00:20:51.919 hit earth it doesn't hurt living beings 411 00:20:51.919 --> 00:20:54.000 even with such power the earth's 412 00:20:54.000 --> 00:20:56.000 atmosphere protects life from the 413 00:20:56.000 --> 00:20:58.480 biggest solar storms by absorbing the 414 00:20:58.480 --> 00:21:00.960 impact so beings on the surface are safe 415 00:21:00.960 --> 00:21:03.840 from harm when a cme is too big it 416 00:21:03.840 --> 00:21:06.480 creates a solar superstorm that occur 417 00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:09.039 once or twice a century so you've been 418 00:21:09.039 --> 00:21:12.240 warned if a solar superstorm did happen 419 00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:14.240 in this day and age it would shoot 420 00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:16.960 billions of tons of plasma from the sun 421 00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:20.080 i do say if this type of cme traveled 422 00:21:20.080 --> 00:21:22.080 across space towards the earth it would 423 00:21:22.080 --> 00:21:24.640 reach you in one day yeah that's fast 424 00:21:24.640 --> 00:21:27.119 for what that is worth it shock wave 425 00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:29.679 wood compressors magnetic field making 426 00:21:29.679 --> 00:21:32.320 it frail the two magnetic fields would 427 00:21:32.320 --> 00:21:34.159 merge stretching earth's field into a 428 00:21:34.159 --> 00:21:37.039 fan tail this stretch tail can't contain 429 00:21:37.039 --> 00:21:39.600 this energy anymore when it snaps it 430 00:21:39.600 --> 00:21:41.919 releases explosive energy towards the 431 00:21:41.919 --> 00:21:44.159 earth that it's stored this creates 432 00:21:44.159 --> 00:21:45.600 something very rare called the 433 00:21:45.600 --> 00:21:48.720 geomagnetic storm normally no living 434 00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:50.880 thing on earth would even know it had 435 00:21:50.880 --> 00:21:53.919 formed the only thing it would affect is 436 00:21:53.919 --> 00:21:57.039 your electricity because you rely on 437 00:21:57.039 --> 00:21:59.440 this so much it would disrupt human life 438 00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:01.520 you see because earth is covered in 439 00:22:01.520 --> 00:22:03.280 millions of electric wires and 440 00:22:03.280 --> 00:22:05.679 transformers this geomagnetic storm 441 00:22:05.679 --> 00:22:07.440 would shut down the power humans would 442 00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:09.840 be overturned if one of these storms hit 443 00:22:09.840 --> 00:22:11.919 the earth electricity and internet would 444 00:22:11.919 --> 00:22:13.679 not work all things powered by 445 00:22:13.679 --> 00:22:15.919 electricity would turn off along with 446 00:22:15.919 --> 00:22:18.240 all networks computers wouldn't work 447 00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:21.039 along with phones and electronic devices 448 00:22:21.039 --> 00:22:24.159 no refrigerators or any other household 449 00:22:24.159 --> 00:22:27.039 appliances even though we can't stop 450 00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:29.679 these terrible solar storms their nasty 451 00:22:29.679 --> 00:22:32.320 side effects can be prevented by how we 452 00:22:32.320 --> 00:22:35.119 are warned engineers would have a day or 453 00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:38.159 two to unplug major power grids until 454 00:22:38.159 --> 00:22:40.320 the solar storm passes earth preventing 455 00:22:40.320 --> 00:22:42.960 blackouts we forbid humans need to 456 00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:45.440 prepare for these types of storms to 457 00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:47.520 prevent being thrown back to the stone 458 00:22:47.520 --> 00:22:51.200 age before they form a cool event humans 459 00:22:51.200 --> 00:22:54.000 experience from any solar storm is the 460 00:22:54.000 --> 00:22:57.039 aurora borealis at the two poles is 461 00:22:57.039 --> 00:22:59.919 where they perform i'm the life-giving 462 00:22:59.919 --> 00:23:03.240 sun you all need me to live but i am 463 00:23:03.240 --> 00:23:06.559 unpredictable so solar storms i give i 464

476 00:23:55.520 --> 00:23:58.799 in the month of august on the 30th day 477 00:23:58.799 --> 00:24:02.240 in the year of 2004 i convey i was 478 00:24:02.240 --> 00:24:04.240 nicknamed the diamond planet due to 479 00:24:04.240 --> 00:24:06.720 research that suggests i have a carbon 480 00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:09.760 rich composition underneath my surface i 481 00:24:09.760 --> 00:24:13.440 was discovered by a female astronomer 482 00:24:13.440 --> 00:24:16.359 she goes by the name of barbara 483 00:24:16.359 --> 00:24:19.679 macarthur the detection method used by 484 00:24:19.679 --> 00:24:22.559 astronomers to find me is a method 485 00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:27.000 called radial velocity my host our 486 00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:30.320 caprenticer 55 pancreate 487 00:24:30.320 -->

00:24:59.600 know about me this far my mass is about 497 00:24:59.600 --> 00:25:02.559 8.08 that of the earth i take point 498 00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:04.559 seven days to complete one orbit of my 499 00:25:04.559 --> 00:25:06.640 star for what that's worth i belong to 500 00:25:06.640 --> 00:25:10.080 the constellation called cancer here is 501 00:25:10.080 --> 00:25:12.640 an example of what it looks like of this 502 00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:16.320 i am sure in 2016 in the month of 503 00:25:16.320 --> 00:25:19.359 february nasa's hubble telescope 504 00:25:19.359 --> 00:25:22.320 detected two gases on me those gases 505 00:25:22.320 --> 00:25:26.320 were hydrogen and helium with hints of 506 00:25:26.320 --> 00:25:29.840 hydrogen cyanide well it was on its run 507 00:25:29.840 --> 00:25:33.600 i am tidally locked just like your moon 508 00:25:33.600 --> 00:25:36.320 that means i have a dark side you won't 509 00:25:36.320 --> 00:25:38.320 see it too soon 510 00:25:38.320 --> 00:25:41.119 silicates in my atmosphere would 511 00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:43.760 condense into clouds on my tidally 512 00:25:43.760 --> 00:25:46.880 locked dark side i commence reflecting 513

10 billion years 548 00:27:47.840 --> 00:27:50.240 that makes me one of the oldest rocky 549 00:27:50.240 --> 00:27:52.720 planets discovered with cheer 550 00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:57.440 i am around 280 light years away i'm a 551 00:27:57.440 --> 00:28:01.440 third bigger than the earth i do convey 552 00:28:01.440 --> 00:28:05.359 i get close when i orbit my g-type star 553 00:28:05.359 --> 00:28:08.640 it takes me 10.5 hours to orbit once 554 00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:12.720 because i'm not too far my mass is 1.59 555 00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:15.679 of the earth's that's one of the reasons 556 00:28:15.679 --> 00:28:19.200 i'm so unique for what that's worth 557 00:28:19.200 --> 00:28:22.960 lauren wise's team is researching me 558 00:28:22.960 --> 00:28:26.320 she's the team leader at

--> 00:30:54.480 the universe from the big bang in alien 611 00:30:54.480 --> 00:30:56.960 planet formation and much more of course 612 00:30:56.960 --> 00:30:59.039 i'll take 30 days to travel a million 613 00:30:59.039 --> 00:31:01.200 miles to my home that's permanent 614 00:31:01.200 --> 00:31:03.279 orbiting the sun aligned with the earth 615 00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:06.240 to explore space is my intent when nasa 616 00:31:06.240 --> 00:31:09.039 built me 10 billion dollars was my cost 617 00:31:09.039 --> 00:31:12.000 my impressive primary mirror is 6.5 618 00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:14.960 meters across it has 18 segments in a 619 00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:17.519 honeycomb structure i say and i am 620 00:31:17.519 --> 00:31:20.960 powered by an onboard solar array the 621 00:31:20.960 --> 00:31:23.760 solar array provides me with 2 000 watts 622 00:31:23.760 --> 00:31:26.080 of electrical power and a propulsion 623 00:31:26.080 --> 00:31:28.799 system to maintain my observatory orbit 624 00:31:28.799 --> 00:31:31.039 by the hour i have enough propellant on 625 00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:33.760 board to last 10 years of operation to 626 00:31:33.760 --> 00:31:35.600 give a better understanding of the 627 00:31:35.600 --> 00:31:38.799 universe to every nation i can see 13 628 00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:40.880 billion light years back in time which 629 00:31:40.880 --> 00:31:43.519 is 100 million years after the universe 630 00:31:43.519 --> 00:31:46.480 was born i do refine we're important 631 00:31:46.480 --> 00:31:48.960 because we give a view of space that is 632 00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:51.519 clear orbiting above hurts foggy 633 00:31:51.519 --> 00:31:54.480 atmosphere we're the hubble space 634 00:31:54.480 --> 00:31:56.799 telescope and the james webb telescope 635 00:31:56.799 --> 00:31:59.360 that's me we're here to tell you about 636 00:31:59.360 --> 00:32:03.480 us and what we can see 637 00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:22.399 i'm the milky way fart spiral galaxy 638 00:32:22.399 --> 00:32:24.399 you now see 639 00:32:24.399 --> 00:32:28.159 with an estimated visible diameter of a 640 00:32:28.159 --> 00:32:30.399 hundred to two hundred thousand light 641 00:32:30.399 --> 00:32:32.880 years across me 642 00:32:32.880 --> 00:32:35.120 i'm the milky way 643 00:32:35.120 --> 00:32:37.360 the song is about 644 00:32:37.360 --> 00:32:40.640 facts of my galaxy 645 00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:43.440 i'm not the biggest but 646 00:32:43.440 --> 00:32:48.720 i'm the one you call home actually 647 00:32:48.720 --> 00:32:50.880 i am the milky way 648 00:32:50.880 --> 00:32:54.159 the galaxy you are all 649 00:32:54.159 --> 00:32:56.640 a part of 650 00:32:56.640 --> 00:33:00.880 your solar system's a small part of me 651 00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:04.640 here's more of me oh love 652 00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:07.919 your galaxy is a gravitationally 653 00:33:07.919 --> 00:33:10.480 bound collection 654 00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:12.640 of stars 655 00:33:12.640 --> 00:33:16.240 and a spiral swirling through space 656 00:33:16.240 --> 00:33:20.720 that's what you know about me this far 657 00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:25.440 i am one and about to trillion galaxies 658 00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:28.720 in this observable universe 659 00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:33.519 let's give some examples of my size 660 00:33:33.519 --> 00:33:36.640 in the coming verse 661 00:33:36.640 --> 00:33:40.399 i do have a radius 662 00:33:40.399 --> 00:33:43.519 which is measured from my center to the 663 00:33:43.519 --> 00:33:45.440 edge of me 664 00:33:45.440 --> 00:33:50.159 which in lighters measures 52 665 00:33:50.159 --> 00:33:52.720 850. 666 00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:55.919 when you measure me from one inch across 667 00:33:55.919 --> 00:33:57.440 my 668 00:33:57.440 --> 00:34:00.440 entirety 669 00:34:00.720 --> 00:34:04.000 i'm about a hundred thousand light years 670 00:34:04.000 --> 00:34:05.440 across 671 00:34:05.440 --> 00:34:08.639 as you can plainly see 672 00:34:08.639 --> 00:34:14.320 i do probably contain 100 to 400 billion 673 00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:16.639 stars you know 674 00:34:16.639 --> 00:34:20.159 that's an estimate that humans created 675 00:34:20.159 --> 00:34:22.879 but there could be more 676 00:34:22.879 --> 00:34:24.639 to show 677 00:34:24.639 --> 00:34:28.879 to give you an example of my size while 678 00:34:28.879 --> 00:34:32.639 we'll look to my neighbor and see 679 00:34:32.639 --> 00:34:36.639 the spectacle goes by the name of 680 00:34:36.639 --> 00:34:38.399 the andromeda 681 00:34:38.399 --> 00:34:40.719 galaxy 682 00:34:40.719 --> 00:34:44.399 if you measure the andromeda across from 683 00:34:44.399 --> 00:34:46.159 one side to 684 00:34:46.159 --> 00:34:48.480 the other 685 00:34:48.480 --> 00:34:49.879 it's about 686 00:34:49.879 --> 00:34:53.440 220 000 light years wide 687 00:34:53.440 --> 00:34:56.960 it's my big brother 688 00:34:56.960 --> 00:34:58.520 this is 689 00:34:58.520 --> 00:35:01.440 ic1101 galaxy 690 00:35:01.440 --> 00:35:04.320 i will now share 691 00:35:04.320 --> 00:35:07.599 it spends as much as 4 million light 692 00:35:07.599 --> 00:35:10.880 years that's a lot bigger if we're 693 00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:12.719 compared 694 00:35:12.719 --> 00:35:15.920 there are a lot of other things bigger 695 00:35:15.920 --> 00:35:20.839 than this called super clusters 696 00:35:20.839 --> 00:35:24.719 laniakea is a good example 697 00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:29.119 i am part of it's hard to muster 698 00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:29.880 the 699 00:35:29.880 --> 00:35:32.960 laniakea supercluster 700 00:35:32.960 --> 00:35:36.920 is thought to be in size 701 00:35:36.920 --> 00:35:39.200 520 million 702 00:35:39.200 --> 00:35:42.880 light years an estimate humans had 703 00:35:42.880 --> 00:35:45.200 comprised 704 00:35:45.200 --> 00:35:48.160 the next time you think earth is the 705 00:35:48.160 --> 00:35:52.160 center of the universe you know 706 00:35:52.160 --> 00:35:55.440 remember you're just a speck floating in 707 00:35:55.440 --> 00:36:00.020 trillions of galaxies in a space unknown 708 00:36:00.020 --> 00:36:09.599 [Music] 709 00:36:09.599 --> 00:36:14.000 this is the ore cloud a spherical layer 710 00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:16.719 of icy objects 711 00:36:16.719 --> 00:36:19.680 surrounding our sun this is the ore 712 00:36:19.680 --> 00:36:21.119 cloud 713 00:36:21.119 --> 00:36:23.520 which is a theoretical 714 00:36:23.520 --> 00:36:24.960 concept 715 00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:28.160 astronomers has fun 716 00:36:28.160 --> 00:36:30.079 the york cloud 717 00:36:30.079 --> 00:36:33.920 is the most distant region in the solar 718 00:36:33.920 --> 00:36:36.320 system 719 00:36:36.320 --> 00:36:40.960 it's much farther than the kuiper belt 720 00:36:40.960 --> 00:36:45.040 we're filling you with this wisdom 721 00:36:45.040 --> 00:36:47.760 the orc cloud's supposedly a giant 722 00:36:47.760 --> 00:36:50.640 spherical shell surrounding the rest of 723 00:36:50.640 --> 00:36:53.280 the solar system as you're propelled 724 00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:55.680 there could be billions or even 725 00:36:55.680 --> 00:36:59.520 trillions of objects within the or cloud 726 00:36:59.520 --> 00:37:03.359 that's what nasa projects this or cloud 727 00:37:03.359 --> 00:37:06.960 could be the source of most comets this 728 00:37:06.960 --> 00:37:09.280 is thought because of a comet's long 729 00:37:09.280 --> 00:37:12.880 period orbit the distance of this ore 730 00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:16.719 cloud from your sun is estimated to be 731 00:37:16.719 --> 00:37:19.520 two thousand to a hundred thousand au on 732 00:37:19.520 --> 00:37:22.960 its run one astronomical unit or a u is 733 00:37:22.960 --> 00:37:25.920 the distance between earth and the sun 734 00:37:25.920 --> 00:37:29.040 like you see on your screen this is the 735 00:37:29.040 --> 00:37:30.880 ore cloud 736 00:37:30.880 --> 00:37:35.200 a spherical layer of icy objects 737 00:37:35.200 --> 00:37:38.160 surrounding our sun this is the ore 738 00:37:38.160 --> 00:37:39.599 cloud 739 00:37:39.599 --> 00:37:43.560 which is a theoretical concept 740 00:37:43.560 --> 00:37:46.079 astronomers had spun 741 00:37:46.079 --> 00:37:48.640 the first description of the orc cloud 742 00:37:48.640 --> 00:37:52.800 was in 1950 by jan hendrick or the dutch 743 00:37:52.800 --> 00:37:54.800 astronomer you see 744 00:37:54.800 --> 00:37:57.920 this or cloud's divided into two regions 745 00:37:57.920 --> 00:38:00.320 you see here a disk shaped inner or 746 00:38:00.320 --> 00:38:03.520 cloud and an outer or cloud sphere 747 00:38:03.520 --> 00:38:06.160 there's never been a confirmed direct 748 00:38:06.160 --> 00:38:09.359 observation of the york cloud so it 749 00:38:09.359 --> 00:38:12.320 continues to be speculation 750 00:38:12.320 --> 00:38:15.040 this region's thought to have formed 4.6 751 00:38:15.040 --> 00:38:17.920 billion years ago after the formation of 752 00:38:17.920 --> 00:38:20.560 the planets in the solar system though 753 00:38:20.560 --> 00:38:23.200 this is the ore cloud 754 00:38:23.200 --> 00:38:27.599 a spherical layer of icy objects 755 00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:30.560 surrounding our sun this is the ore 756 00:38:30.560 --> 00:38:35.839 cloud which is a theoretical concept 757 00:38:35.839 --> 00:38:39.880 astronomer says 758 00:38:40.870 --> 00:38:43.889 [Music] 759 00:38:48.800 --> 00:38:51.520 this is a circumceller disc called the 760 00:38:51.520 --> 00:38:55.040 kyber bell and the outer solar system is 761 00:38:55.040 --> 00:38:57.480 where its presence is felt this is a 762 00:38:57.480 --> 00:39:00.239 circumstellar disk called the kuiper 763 00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:03.280 belt extending from the orbit of neptune 764 00:39:03.280 --> 00:39:06.320 so its ice doesn't melt the kuiper belt 765 00:39:06.320 --> 00:39:09.520 does be on neptune's orbit one of the 766 00:39:09.520 --> 00:39:12.320 largest structures in our solar system i 767 00:39:12.320 --> 00:39:15.839 admit it was discovered after pluto was 768 00:39:15.839 --> 00:39:20.160 in 1930 but 1992 direct evidence aimed 769 00:39:20.160 --> 00:39:23.119 it officially the kuiper belts a region 770 00:39:23.119 --> 00:39:26.800 of leftovers that are icy from the solar 771 00:39:26.800 --> 00:39:29.760 system's early history this is thought 772 00:39:29.760 --> 00:39:32.719 to be one of the main sources of comets 773 00:39:32.719 --> 00:39:35.440 but the kuiper belt is mainly made of 774 00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:38.320 icy objects there's lots of objects here 775 00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:39.520 and also 776 00:39:39.520 --> 00:39:41.920 rocky effects astronomers generally 777 00:39:41.920 --> 00:39:45.359 accept as the known dwarf planets orcas 778 00:39:45.359 --> 00:39:48.320 and pluto both exist within the kuiper 779 00:39:48.320 --> 00:39:50.560 belt 780 00:39:50.560 --> 00:39:52.560 and monkey monkey also make their 781 00:39:52.560 --> 00:39:54.560 presence felt there are hundreds of 782 00:39:54.560 --> 00:39:57.040 thousands of objects in the kuiper belt 783 00:39:57.040 --> 00:39:59.280 region that have been there since the 784 00:39:59.280 --> 00:40:02.239 solar system began this region's 30 785 00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:05.520 astronomical units or 50 au from the sun 786 00:40:05.520 --> 00:40:08.000 that's the estimated size of the kuiper 787 00:40:08.000 --> 00:40:10.520 belt on its icy run the kuiper belt's a 788 00:40:10.520 --> 00:40:12.719 trans-neptunian region in the solar 789 00:40:12.719 --> 00:40:14.960 system it's smaller than the asteroid 790 00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:17.280 belt but much larger as it's fun this 791 00:40:17.280 --> 00:40:19.520 kuiper belt's named after the dutch 792 00:40:19.520 --> 00:40:22.560 astronomer gerard kuiper though he did 793 00:40:22.560 --> 00:40:25.599 not credit its existence i am sure the 794 00:40:25.599 --> 00:40:28.079 kuiper belt far past neptune's orbit 795 00:40:28.079 --> 00:40:30.800 it's felt but the oort cloud extends 796 00:40:30.800 --> 00:40:33.520 even further circling the kuiper belt 797 00:40:33.520 --> 00:40:35.839 lots of kuiper belt objects have moons 798 00:40:35.839 --> 00:40:38.239 that orbit daily the most well-known are 799 00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:41.520 pluto hameya quarrer and also aries 800 00:40:41.520 --> 00:40:43.520 there are more than a trillion comets 801 00:40:43.520 --> 00:40:46.239 within the kuiper belt haley's comet is 802 00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:48.560 the most famous on earth or presence is 803 00:40:48.560 --> 00:40:51.280 felt this is a circumstellar disk called 804 00:40:51.280 --> 00:40:54.239 the kuiper belt in the outer solar 805 00:40:54.239 --> 00:40:56.719 system is where its presence is felt 806 00:40:56.719 --> 00:40:59.520 this is a circumstellar disc called the 807 00:40:59.520 --> 00:41:02.719 kyper belt extending from the orbit of 808 00:41:02.719 --> 00:41:07.559 neptune so its ice doesn't melt 809 00:41:07.969 --> 00:41:12.800 [Music] 810 00:41:12.800 --> 00:41:15.119 earth that's the second moon 811 00:41:15.119 --> 00:41:16.319 it's me 812 00:41:16.319 --> 00:41:18.560 provisionally designated 813 00:41:18.560 --> 00:41:20.079 2016 814 00:41:20.079 --> 00:41:22.880 h03

00:41:30.079 --> 00:41:36.598 i was first spotted in april of 2016 819 00:41:37.040 --> 00:41:40.079 by pan stars 820 00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:43.520 asteroid survey telescope 821 00:41:43.520 -->

missions were a nasa program 867 00:44:17.920 --> 00:44:20.400 and set a major space flight milestone 868 00:44:20.400 --> 00:44:23.920 for all humans the apollo program was 869 00:44:23.920 --> 00:44:27.480 conceived in 1960 during dwight d 870 00:44:27.480 --> 00:44:31.520 eisenhower's presidency then the apollo 871 00:44:31.520 --> 00:44:34.319 program started in 1961 872 00:44:34.319 --> 00:44:36.960 and consisted of eleven total space 873 00:44:36.960 --> 00:44:39.599 flights and missions apollo was and 874 00:44:39.599 --> 00:44:42.000 that's a program that had american 875

was launched in 1968 884 00:45:07.119 --> 00:45:09.359 with the crew of three the times the 885 00:45:09.359 --> 00:45:10.920 crew orbited earth 886 00:45:10.920 --> 00:45:14.800 163 apollo 8 launched 1968 with a 887 00:45:14.800 --> 00:45:16.880 different crew of three and then the 888 00:45:16.880 --> 00:45:19.520 mission was also successful with earth 889 00:45:19.520 --> 00:45:22.640 orbits numbering 10. apollo 9 tested the 890 00:45:22.640 --> 00:45:26.079 lunar module in orbit in 69 the crew 891 00:45:26.079 --> 00:45:28.880 orbited the earth 151 892 00:45:28.880 --> 00:45:31.200 times

successful instead 901 00:45:52.960 --> 00:45:55.520 of ending in doom all astronauts 902 00:45:55.520 --> 00:45:58.880 survived on apollo 13 you can see after 903 00:45:58.880 --> 00:46:02.800 an oxygen tank explosion in 1970 the 904 00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:06.719 apollo 14 mission launched in 1970 one 905 00:46:06.719 --> 00:46:08.560 which marked the first landing in the 906 00:46:08.560 --> 00:46:10.960 lunar highlands this mission was done 907 00:46:10.960 --> 00:46:13.040 the first use of the apollo river 908 00:46:13.040 --> 00:46:16.239 happened in 71 as well this launched on 909 00:46:16.239 --> 00:46:19.440 apollo 15 mission and it went real swell 910 00:46:19.440 --> 00:46:22.800 apollo 16 launched in 1972 911 00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:25.760 astronauts explored the lunar

1020 00:52:07.119 --> 00:52:10.719 far i'm about 4.24 light years from the 1021 00:52:10.719 --> 00:52:13.040 earth and i'm the closest star to the 1022 00:52:13.040 --> 00:52:15.920 sun for what that is worth discovered in 1023 00:52:15.920 --> 00:52:19.599 1915 by astronomer robert eins i'm sure 1024 00:52:19.599 --> 00:52:22.559 in south africa at the union observatory 1025 00:52:22.559 --> 00:52:25.760 in johannesburg my latin name proxima 1026 00:52:25.760 --> 00:52:28.480 centauri means when this is defined the 1027 00:52:28.480 --> 00:52:30.800 nearest star of centaurus that's all 1028 00:52:30.800 --> 00:52:34.640 that's assigned we're alpha centauri the 1029 00:52:34.640 --> 00:52:38.319 closest star system to the solar system 1030 00:52:38.319 --> 00:52:42.559 your earth is from alpha centauri is a 1031 00:52:42.559 --> 00:52:46.400 triple star system where 4.37 light 1032 00:52:46.400 --> 00:52:49.839 years away from your sun we're alpha 1033 00:52:49.839 --> 00:52:53.440 centauri a an alpha centauri b which 1034 00:52:53.440 --> 00:52:56.960 forms a pair of stars called binary 1035 00:52:56.960 --> 00:53:00.000 alpha centauri a officially rigel 1036

00:57:20.240 --> 00:57:23.079 let's look at this galaxy size 1120 00:57:23.079 --> 00:57:26.960 comparison from small to big of course 1121 00:57:26.960 --> 00:57:28.220 now here we come 1122 00:57:28.220 --> 00:57:31.359 [Music] 1123 00:57:31.359 --> 00:57:34.559 i am beetlejuice i'm nearing the end of 1124 00:57:34.559 --> 00:57:37.520 my life one of the top 10 brightest 1125 00:57:37.520 --> 00:57:40.559 stars up in the night sky i am a red 1126 00:57:40.559 --> 00:57:44.079 super giant expected to explode into a 1127 00:57:44.079 --> 00:57:47.040 supernova in a hundred thousand years or 1128 00:57:47.040 --> 00:57:49.960 so i received the name beetlejuice in 1129 00:57:49.960 --> 00:57:53.599 1836 by sir john herschel in astronomer 1130 00:57:53.599 --> 00:57:56.240 and a great scientist i'm the second 1131 00:57:56.240 --> 00:57:58.319 brightest star in the orion 1132 00:57:58.319 --> 00:58:01.280 constellation after the star rigel we're 1133 00:58:01.280 --> 00:58:04.720 seen from any of its nations my diameter 1134 00:58:04.720 --> 00:58:07.839 is about 700 times out of your sun and 1135 00:58:07.839 --> 00:58:10.319 i'm 640 light years from the earth 1136 00:58:10.319 --> 00:58:12.559 that's quite a run but my surface 1137 00:58:12.559 --> 00:58:15.119 temperature 6 000 degrees and fair and 1138 00:58:15.119 --> 00:58:17.839 high cooler than your sun surface 10 000 1139 00:58:17.839 --> 00:58:20.640 degrees yeah that's right i'm so massive 1140 00:58:20.640 --> 00:58:23.520 if you replaced your son with me i'd 1141 00:58:23.520 --> 00:58:26.000 reach past the orbit of jupiter i'm 1142 00:58:26.000 --> 00:58:29.040 gigantic you see i'm considered a young 1143 00:58:29.040 --> 00:58:31.599 star at just 10 million years old soon 1144 00:58:31.599 --> 00:58:34.799 to explode into a supernova scientist 1145 00:58:34.799 --> 00:58:38.079 say so i am beetlejuice i'm nearing the 1146 00:58:38.079 --> 00:58:40.960 end of my life one of the top 10 1147 00:58:40.960 --> 00:58:44.160 brightest stars up in the night sky i am 1148 00:58:44.160 --> 00:58:47.359 a red super giant expected to explode 1149 00:58:47.359 --> 00:58:50.559 into a supernova in a hundred thousand 1150 00:58:50.559 --> 00:58:51.839 years or so 1151 00:58:51.839 --> 00:58:55.280 a red supergiant is an aging giant star 1152 00:58:55.280 --> 00:58:57.520 that has consumed its core supply of 1153 00:58:57.520 --> 00:58:59.520 hydrogen fuel that's what they are 1154 00:58:59.520 --> 00:59:02.799 helium has accumulated in my core so 1155 00:59:02.799 --> 00:59:05.520 well and hydrogen's undergoing nuclear 1156 00:59:05.520 --> 00:59:08.559 fusion in my outer shells when my outer 1157 00:59:08.559 --> 00:59:11.359 shells expand i take on a red color 1158 00:59:11.359 --> 00:59:14.079 because i'm cooler than i was i'm happy 1159 00:59:14.079 --> 00:59:17.280 to discover red supergiants are the 1160 00:59:17.280 --> 00:59:19.839 largest snow stars in the universe and 1161 00:59:19.839 --> 00:59:23.119 i'm expected to supernova on to the next 1162 00:59:23.119 --> 00:59:25.839 verse during fusion heavier atoms are 1163 00:59:25.839 --> 00:59:28.319 created until my core is iron that's 1164 00:59:28.319 --> 00:59:31.040 when i'll run out of fuel without even 1165 00:59:31.040 --> 00:59:33.839 trying when that happens to a star as 1166 00:59:33.839 --> 00:59:37.119 massive as me the entire star collapses 1167 00:59:37.119 --> 00:59:40.079 and explodes as a supernova you see when 1168 00:59:40.079 --> 00:59:43.200 i do supernova i'll create quite a sight 1169 00:59:43.200 --> 00:59:45.280 some predict i'll even look like your 1170 00:59:45.280 --> 00:59:47.559 full moon's brightest light the 1171 00:59:47.559 --> 00:59:50.559 radiation i'd put off from becoming a 1172 00:59:50.559 --> 00:59:53.040 supernova wouldn't affect earth because 1173 00:59:53.040 --> 00:59:56.880 i'm 640 light years old i am

01:09:06.479 the furthest reaches of our solar system 1337 01:09:06.479 --> 01:09:09.839 in orbit my distance from the sun in my 1338 01:09:09.839 --> 01:09:13.920 furthest orbit is about 84 billion miles 1339 01:09:13.920 --> 01:09:17.120 i barely see it if you saw the sun from 1340 01:09:17.120 --> 01:09:19.359 that distance you wouldn't squint it 1341 01:09:19.359 --> 01:09:21.439 would be so small it could be blocked 1342 01:09:21.439 --> 01:09:24.319 with the head of a pin i'm the second 1343 01:09:24.319 --> 01:09:27.600 reddest object in our solar system the 1344 01:09:27.600 --> 01:09:30.319 first reddest is mars yeah i am second 1345 01:09:30.319 --> 01:09:33.359 to him i am three-fourths the size of 1346 01:09:33.359 --> 01:09:36.400 our dwarf planet pluto and i'm believed 1347 01:09:36.400 --> 01:09:39.120 to live in the inner or cloud you know 1348 01:09:39.120 --> 01:09:42.400 my name is sedna a dwarf planet 1349 01:09:42.400 --> 01:09:45.198 candidate i'm in the

01:09:54.719 10 500 earth years yeah that is a long 1353 01:09:54.719 --> 01:09:57.600 run it's predicted the last time i was 1354 01:09:57.600 --> 01:10:00.400 closest to our sun earth was coming out 1355 01:10:00.400 --> 01:10:03.280 of its last ice age now that isn't fun i 1356 01:10:03.280 --> 01:10:05.840 live in the coldest known region of our 1357 01:10:05.840 --> 01:10:09.360 solar system it's minus 240 degrees 1358 01:10:09.360 --> 01:10:11.979 celsius where i'm from my name 1359 01:10:11.979 --> 01:10:15.198 [Music] 1360 01:10:15.198 --> 01:10:16.400 i'm in the is 1361 01:10:16.400 --> 01:10:19.360 reaches of our solar system in orbit my 1362 01:10:19.360 --> 01:10:23.198 name is sedna a dwarf planet candidate 1363 01:10:23.198 --> 01:10:25.840 i'm in the furthest reaches of our

01:10:39.679 seven major tectonic plates it's what 1368 01:10:39.679 --> 01:10:41.760 shapes the face of the earth with 1369 01:10:41.760 --> 01:10:44.479 volcanoes and earthquakes the 1370 01:10:44.479 --> 01:10:47.520 lithosphere consists of the upper mantle 1371 01:10:47.520 --> 01:10:49.760 and the crust they're part of the 1372 01:10:49.760 --> 01:10:52.238 geosphere on earth which makes these 1373 01:10:52.238 --> 01:10:55.040 plates adjust tectonic plates are 1374 01:10:55.040 --> 01:10:58.238 irregularly shaped slabs of solid rock 1375 01:10:58.238 --> 01:11:01.198 composed of oceanic and continental 1376 01:11:01.198 --> 01:11:03.920 lithosphere bedrock there are three 1377 01:11:03.920 --> 01:11:06.479 tectonic boundaries running between 1378 01:11:06.479 --> 01:11:09.679 tectonic plates diverging convergent and 1379 01:11:09.679 --> 01:11:12.000 transform now aren't those names just 1380 01:11:12.000 --> 01:11:12.960 great 1381 01:11:12.960 --> 01:11:15.600 dive birds and boundaries move away from 1382 01:11:15.600 --> 01:11:17.760 each other and produce print valleys 1383 01:11:17.760 --> 01:11:20.320 most active between oceanic plates yes 1384 01:11:20.320 --> 01:11:22.560 the plants out in the sea 1385 01:11:22.560 --> 01:11:24.880 convergent boundaries move toward one 1386 01:11:24.880 --> 01:11:27.360 another and destructively collide and 1387 01:11:27.360 --> 01:11:28.800 that's where you'd find those 1388 01:11:28.800 --> 01:11:32.080 earthquakes and volcanoes to reside 1389 01:11:32.080 --> 01:11:34.479 transform boundaries are two plates that 1390 01:11:34.479 --> 01:11:38.479 slide past one another the centre is the 1391 01:11:38.479 --> 01:11:41.198 best example 1392 01:11:41.198 --> 01:11:43.840 let's talk about the lithosphere and the 1393 01:11:43.840 --> 01:11:46.880 seven major tectonic plates it's what 1394 01:11:46.880 --> 01:11:48.960 shapes the face of the earth with 1395 01:11:48.960 --> 01:11:52.159 volcanoes and earthquakes let's look at 1396 01:11:52.159 --> 01:11:54.560 this topological map of the earth that 1397 01:11:54.560 --> 01:11:56.080 we live on 1398 01:11:56.080 --> 01:11:58.560 and the seven major tectonic plates 1399 01:11:58.560 --> 01:12:01.600 we're learning in this song the biggest 1400 01:12:01.600 --> 01:12:04.080 is the pacific plate it lies beneath the 1401 01:12:04.080 --> 01:12:05.760 pacific ocean 1402 01:12:05.760 --> 01:12:08.400 nicknamed the ring of fire due to all 1403 01:12:08.400 --> 01:12:11.920 the volcanic emotion the north american 1404 01:12:11.920 --> 01:12:14.320 plate is an x on the list of major 1405 01:12:14.320 --> 01:12:17.198 plates it includes both continental and 1406 01:12:17.198 --> 01:12:20.719 oceanic crust i indicate next we have 1407 01:12:20.719 --> 01:12:24.000 the eurasian plate also a major tectonic 1408 01:12:24.000 --> 01:12:26.880 grade two large continents it includes 1409 01:12:26.880 --> 01:12:29.679 our europe and asia today let's talk 1410 01:12:29.679 --> 01:12:32.320 about the lithosphere and the seven 1411 01:12:32.320 --> 01:12:35.360 major tectonic plates is what shapes the 1412 01:12:35.360 --> 01:12:38.080 face of the earth with volcanoes and 1413 01:12:38.080 --> 01:12:40.560 earthquakes and then the african planet 1414 01:12:40.560 --> 01:12:44.080 is next get to straddle the vast equator 1415 01:12:44.080 --> 01:12:46.479 north of africa's continents in it 1416 01:12:46.479 --> 01:12:49.040 that's an easy way to locator the 1417 01:12:49.040 --> 01:12:51.679 antarctic plate is a medium size of the 1418 01:12:51.679 --> 01:12:54.400 seven plates that are major a house is 1419 01:12:54.400 --> 01:12:57.120 the continent of antarctica you'll hear 1420 01:12:57.120 --> 01:13:00.960 as i banter the indo-australian plate is 1421 01:13:00.960 --> 01:13:03.679 on the smaller side of the majors it's 1422 01:13:03.679 --> 01:13:06.000 off to consider two plants but as one 1423 01:13:06.000 --> 01:13:08.719 it's definitely much greater the south 1424 01:13:08.719 --> 01:13:11.120 american plate is the smallest of the 1425 01:13:11.120 --> 01:13:12.880 major plants you know 1426 01:13:12.880 --> 01:13:15.198 that includes south america and atlantic 1427 01:13:15.198 --> 01:13:17.679 ocean sea bed 1428 01:13:17.679 --> 01:13:20.320 about the lithosphere and the seven 1429 01:13:20.320 --> 01:13:23.360 major tectonic plates is what shapes the 1430 01:13:23.360 --> 01:13:26.080 face of the earth with volcanoes and 1431 01:13:26.080 --> 01:13:29.120 earthquake talk about the lithosphere 1432 01:13:29.120 --> 01:13:32.159 and the seven major tectonic plates is 1433 01:13:32.159 --> 01:13:34.560 what shapes the face of the earth with 1434 01:13:34.560 --> 01:13:38.760 volcanoes and earthquakes
