      for me, it’s not the actual stuff in space that’s so damn frightening to me, but the sheer size and especially distance of it all. our planets are nothing compared to the sun, but even our sun is nothing compared to the largest star we’ve ever discovered, but then that largest star is nothing compared to nebulas, but then even those nebulas are nothing compared to the milky way galaxy, but then our galaxy is nothing compared to the largest galaxies we’ve ever discovered, but then those largest galaxies are nothing compared to superclusters, and then those superclusters are nothing compared to the largest cosmic structure we’ve ever discovered. and then top that with the fact that everything is just so FAR away from each other that it will likely be impossible for humans to ever reach our nearest neighboring star, which is only 4 lightyears away (actual baby numbers for the universe). when i’ve caught myself thinking about it, i can’t help but feel this.. empty sinking feeling of doom. one of the few genuine phobias i have. i love learning about astronomy and what’s out there in our universe… i just don’t like thinking about it too much

    When I was a little kid I actually experienced the opposite of astrophobia. I grew up on a farm, and thus had an excellent view of the night sky due to less light pollution, and when I would look up at the stars and the Milky Way overhead, I felt an odd sense of comfort: here am I, a human, on this beautiful planet, able to admire such a magnificent view from our little corner of the universe; looking up at the same moon and same stars that my ancestors all the way back gazed up at. It was like a sense of oneness, with the cosmos and humanity, across time and space.

      As a matter of fact, results from the JWST observations have led to the generalization that rogue planets might be the rule rather than an exception regarding the orbital status of planets in general. Our solar system with its sun with its 8 + 1 planets in orbit around it appears to be a rare occurrence among stars. Although our solar system is scary enough already, we should be thankful to live in the light of a bright star. Of course, life wouldn't be possible without the ☀️. Still, try to imagine the timeline of living on a rogue planet in total, permanent darkness at temperatures near absolute zero. Now, that I find the scariest. Pitch black darkness (unless one brings its own batteries and lighting system 😁) - brrrr.... The sky would slowly change permanently year after year. Some people might be terrorized at the (extremely fictional) prospect of living on a rogue planet and not knowing whether their 'homeland' might be captured by a giant star, or worse, a black hole in the ± distant future !! Fortunately, that prospect is extremely unlikely given the vast emptiness of the universe (relatively speaking). The probability of a rogue planet getting captured or hitting (😱) a star or a giant planet is very remote. One may compare this with the very small probability of "hitting" an atom's nucleus by bombarding it with neutrons because of the extremely small size of the nucleus relative to the volume of an atom.
      BTW, go see 'Oppenheimer', which presents this problem that faced the Manhattan Project's scientists who were trying to trigger a chain reaction by bombarding atoms of plutonium. One of the many problems they were faced with during that absolutely extraordinary technological marathon of death....

    The description of how it would feel like to fall into Jupiter is possibly very accurate. I was once doing an excursion, in Kerbal Space Program with BlackRack's volumetric clouds installed, into Jool's atmosphere, using a probe that I've launched. I deorbited and started falling into the thick atmosphere that slowed me down to a velocity of 30 meters per second. When the probe broke the "surface", it fell into a giant "cave", lightning flashing all around. It was amazing, it looked so unreal.
    But the probe didn't stop falling there. It fell trough the "floor" of the cave and I just sat there, watching. The sun was slowly getting darker, the visibility climbing lower. This was at about 32 and a half kilometres under the "surface" of the planet. It was completely dark some time later, lightning still flashing everywhere around me. And then the probe fell into a second cave, this one much deeper.
    It was terrifying.
    I could see the dark, gaseous floors and walls when a lightning struck. I was in awe and in fear. I didn't expect the Volumetric Clouds mod to make Jool so different from what it is in the Vanilla game.
    The probe finally imploded at somewhere around -75k. I called the mission a success, and I went to sleep. It was around 11 PM when the mission began, 2 AM when it ended.

    I have Thalassophobia (fear of the deep ocean), so I can somewhat relate to the fear of space; however, it doesn’t terrify me as much as the Ocean. In the Ocean, your vision is clouded and you can’t see - whereas in Space, if you can’t see something you just know there is *nothing* there. The fear then becomes one of loneliness, or being stranded - and that has a weird sense of comfort to go along with it.

      Yeah that’s not how space works. You might not see something but there’s so much matter in space that isn’t visible I.e black holes, sunburst , etc

      It’s interesting bc space is fear of the unknown bc there’s nothing out there, whereas the ocean you can firmly be assured that you’re never ever alone in the deep ocean. Something is underneath you

    For me the most terrifying planet is Jupiter because of it''s incomprehensible size and how inhospitable it is. I guess that's the same reason that I'm terrified of all the planets!

      Jupiter is a protector, though! It diverts a lot of asteroids that could potentially threaten Earth.

    I love this video, it reminded me of something I wrote back in Garde 7 in Natural Science. The topic was space and I had to write a paragraph on what I thought of space:
    "As I look at the heavens above, its violent, incredibly unforgiving nature, I feel a sense of Wonder and amazement, what we see in our own Solar system is what we will most likely Visit, perhaps not in our lives but our Grandchildren or Great grandchildrens lives, we are the only life currently in the Galaxy, and thus we should make the most of our gift and explore what we have been given. Human nature is to expand, so I see no reason why the final frontier should be excluded from this."

    I had extreme Astrophobia when I was a kid. I still have it but I kinda love the thrill of fear I feel when I see these massive heavenly bodies.

      I know what you mean, I think I was 3-4 when I first saw a shooting star and I almost cried with fear. It was so scary, I’d never seen something move so fast. My parents said there’s a meteor shower, and I thought they meant rain or something, we all went out back and I saw it right away, and was told that’s a meteor.

    The movie ad astra made me realize how lonely it is out there. When the main character was at Neptune I never felt more immersed in a space movie than that. You really felt like you were lifetimes away from earth and it actually horrified me just seeing emptiness and the mysterious blue planet.
