The edge of everything used to be the edge of the map. But now, thanks to what we know about astrophysics and the universe, the edge of everything might not even exist…

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… (👈 astrophysics, basically)
Let me know what you thought of this week’s video! The size of the universe always blows my mind…
...being friendzoned.
I need to say you are forgetting about Piri Reis map
Thanks for the video. I have always wondered. Astronomers say that the universe is 13.8 billion years old. They say this because of the cosmic inflation they see amongst other things. My question is, shouldn't they say that it is AT LEAST 13.8 billion years old? We really can't make true calculations without being able to see the edge of the universe. Or is everyone saying it is at least 13.8 and I haven't been paying attention?
So when we see the light and the galaxy is older and further by the time we see it, why is it we still see it at the observing time and after? If in fact it has moved away and is also older and the light has to travel now a longer distance to reach are eyes. I think the observing of distant light is wrong because the light as you see it does not go away, you don't stop seeing it even if it has traveled further away do to expansion of the universe. Either that or the theory of expansion in the universe is wrong. MP
@It's Okay to Be Smart I always figured that since the Big Bang was a point, and in expanded pretty much in every direction, wouldn't the Universe be just spherical (or weirdly kind-of-sphericalish since some parts are spanding faster)
0:48 "If the earth were flat.... which it's not" - Dude got super-serious, really fast.
wouldnt you get serious if you were telling the truth xD
The sheer size and ferocity of the Flat Earth Pheonom is taking many folks, including this chap apparently, by surprise. Of course its just another round in the never-ending Young Earth Creationist battleground, but since its Biblical basis is even more tenuous than the Oct. 5, 8 o'clock in the morning in 4004 B.C. earth and possibly universe insanity, it takes a correspondingly greater amount of willful ignorance and tinfoil hattery to believe in - but we shouldn't be TOO surprised: we live in an "unpresidented" age where someone who claims to believe global warming is a conspiracy invented by the Chinese, can become one of the most powerful nutjobs in the world.
In otder to drive home the point ro those morons who believe otherwise!
@@HolyMotherofGrid you mean in america. here in sweden global warming is a fact and everyone knows it
Flat earthers are annoying.

I was expecting, "Hey! Vsauce here! How far is...far?" *mysterious low bell chime*
And then continuing with an abrupt "Point Nemo!"...is the further place you can be, on Earth, from any landmass...but the universe it's bigger"
Vsauce sold himself out so to speak. You tube Red.
@@mikshin9825 oh yeah, god forbids somebody makes money out of what they like!
mikshin then he made it all free
You are mistaken,
Hey!!! Vsauce.. Michael here!
What is the farthest away?
“Hey Vsauce. Michael here.”
what is far?
Duane Angeles nice 69
Amazing the number of people on the internet who think they are clever
@林 *drops an apple on the ground*
Ok. What the heck is this???
Hey vsauce Michael here. but where are you? Probaly far from where i am. But what does far mean? Well according to dictionary.com far means "at, to, or by a great distance (used to indicate the extent to which one thing is distant from another)" but how far is far? Well now we run into a conundrum since the universe is potentially infinate how far is far?
2:02 And in 2300 they will be like

There are no words to how much I love this channel.
Looks like 11 words.
@@herbtenderson7335Hmm...You might be on to something there...
@@THETRIVIALTHINGS now it's 19 words
So, how's that infecting going?
@@f1r3hunt3rz5Radical retired me. I was too powerful for them to handle.
The train and bridge analogy is something I will definitely use in the future. A lot of people can't wrap their head around it but that is a great way of laying it out.
The only thing missing with that analogy, is that the space between the two didn’t move, which it does in space. The stretching of that space in between us and super-distant galaxies is what makes redshift happen
What if humans on Andromeda Galaxy are also keeping an eye on the Milky Way and are alos making a CZcams Video about it? That'd be so cool.
I heard that the middle of every galaxy had a special black hole called supermassives
I’ve heard about andromeda because of that the supermazive is 100 times the mass of the sun
@@maxwellmegagamer8535 No worries then, since Sagittarius A* at the center of our galaxy is over 4 million times the mass of the sun.
According to astrologers, we might not even experience a collision with anything from Andromeda since the amount of empty space is greater than the space that something as small as a planet takes up. It could still interfere with our solar system though if anything gets close enough to throw us off corse and we fly out of this solar system or towards the sun. If another solar system or star or even a gas giant came close enough, it wouldn't even have to touch our solar system to throw the earth out of orbit. It's still extremly sensitive, dispite the amount of empty space vs the space taken up by planets. Don't worry too much though. Our galaxies won't collide for a very long time.
That’s very likely. Considering how gigantic our universe is, anything is possible.
I think it could be much worse when a stray solar system or even a black hole from Andromeda hit our galaxy if both galaxies are spinning in opposing directions. If both galaxies are spinning in the same direction and a black hole gets near this system, we're gonna have to find a way to stay connected to our sun while also staying in the habitable zone because the faster a "close call" flies by us, the harder it will yank on our system. If both galaxies were spinning in the same direction, the chance of collision would probably be higher but the tug gravity has on us won't have a lot of kick. We still would be in probably more danger though because if two stars or solar systems stay too close for too long, the chances of bumping into each other is pretty much 100% unless one galaxy is going much faster than other but it would have to be going probably twice the speed or more and it still can't come too close. The closer it one comes to our system, the faster it will have to pass us by but even when headed in the same direction as us, it both systems would yank on each other too hard. Sorry for how long this comment was.

Beautiful video. I have watched every video on CZcams regarding redshift, expansion of the universe, standard candles (cephids) etc. and this is the most succinct one I have seen. Great introduction to the size of the universe.
What a great video! Takes crazy difficult physics and makes it engaging, digestable and interesting. Well done!!!

@A Thing no dude we're not...
Your videos are outstanding. Very fun to watch!
No matter how many times I watch space videos like this... I'm always blown away. Thank God people were curious enough. It makes us more curious now.
How did you get to the result of 92 billion?
Awesome how you tied that together, very informative.
Uncharted areas of space are not protected by lions as previously believed, but are in fact guarded by the much more dangerous kraken.
Beyond 92 billion light years, there is only Cthulhu.

Challenge for me in 2018:
1. Look up in night sky & choose just ONE star.
2. Look away for 10 seconds.
3. Look back and try to re-locate that same star again.
Have you tried that with Polaris yet?
There are only 3 stars that I can surely remember. Its the orion's belt. The rest, I dont really know...
Your standards are really low. Lol

Literally small. We're the specs of specs of specs of dust compared to how big the universe is.

Heard these ideas a few times, but never explained so well 👏👏
Great video. I hadn't really understood the redshifting of light until you explained it here in this video. Thank you.
Great upload : - )
When I was a child... my grandfather would show me the milky way spiral arm in all its glory.... now I'm 50.... I cannot show my own Son...... there is now to much light pollution here in Cymru Wales UK where I live....No such thing anymore as a dark night... such a shame.
Sam Lawrence you should go to a field at night. There your son could see the sky in it’s full glory 🌌
@@victorm9131 Thanks Victor...
I live in a small village.... surrounded on all sides by mountains.... but the light from the City 20 miles away is enough to wash out the stars...
I hope there are still places left in Cymru Wales UK where I can see the night as it was before all the light pollution....but you'd have to be about 50 years old to remember how glorious it was lol.
Last time I saw the milky way properly.... was in England at toot hill observatory..... even saw andromeda..... blue...red...and orange stars.... as well as silver.... all with the naked eye... about 25 years ago.

You heard him folks, Earth is not flat. But I bet it's actually a fancy donut shape
😂
But no one with credibility is allowed to go see it from space. Wonder why.
With sprinkles. Krispy Kreme rocks the casbah.
He said the universe, not the Earth.
That's actually theoretically possible. There's either a SciShow or SciShow Space video on it.
There's a night sky? You mean the big WalMart light in the sky that's always on? Yeah, that's about 3 miles away.
I hope you've managed to see the sky on a clear night out in a rural area with little to no light pollution at some point in your life. Living in a city you forget just how much of the universe you can see with just your eyeballs.

Mr Monster ME
so tl;dr
our universe is like minecraft. there's a block limit(where light is and we can actually see) and then there's the phantom chunks (where we can't actually travel or see)
Not to mention that matter we can see touch and feel represents only 5% of the total the rest is dark matter and dark energy

Every Galaxy is moving away from every other Galaxy. We will never see further away then we can right now.
Not true. Galaxies close enough to each other attract each other strong enough to not be torn apart by the expansion of the universe. In fact, the Milky Way will merge with Andromeda.
@@orangehatmusic225 Wrong.
The rate at which the universe is expanding won't be able to completely "out speed" light speed in time before we can see more of the universe.

"There Be Lions out there!"
Yup! The Leo constellation! Right between Cancer and Virgo!
this reminds me of a question from a physics class I was in a few years back, "What is the furthest thing we could travel to in throry". The answer is "the local group". This is because this region of space is bound together by gravity and the space-time of everything outside the local group is expanding faster and faster. Because space-time is expanding FASTER everywhere that is not bound together by gravity at some point our "partical horizon" will consist only of the local group. Of course this is trillions of years from now, but it is almost a mathematical certainty
I feel a bit smarter after watching this vid! Thanks!
this a fantastic question and i hope the video answers it well (:
I love the "discover" places where people already lived
The furthest away stars and galaxies will be only visible in infrared and lower spectrum due to energy loss from traveling thousands/millions of light years.

I was thinking about this last night it’s such a hard concept to comprehend and I don’t think we’ll ever have the capabilities to figure it out. If there is an edge to the universe how is it possible for nothing to exist at all. And if the universe is infinite.. just how can it go on forever with no end. Either way it’s pretty mind blowing to try wrap your head around it.
It's unimaginable , there is no perspective! The mystery is unfathomable. But, its also right here, right now!
