- Fly through the galaxy with Museum astrophysicist Jackie Faherty, who takes us on a dazzling tour of new research and data visualizations made possible by recently released data from the Gaia space telescope.
In April 2018, the European Space Agency’s Gaia observatory released its second data catalog, which includes the distances to over 1.3 billion stars. Faherty breaks down why this information is so revolutionary, and explains how this information is helping scientists and non-scientists alike understand the universe like never before.
Listen to the full SciCafe event, including a Q&A session, by downloading the Science@AMNH podcast on iTunes, Soundcloud, or wherever you get your podcasts.
This SciCafe took place on October 3, 2018.
The SciCafe series is proudly sponsored by Judy and Josh Weston.

American Museum of Natural History is an amazing adventure
Hello good or Ming 11/05/2019
Pseudo trash absolute garbage . You reject every notion that not all us are complete idiots who can not question your absurd stupidity you pass off as a scientific study of your dumb ass limited construct you make out to be reality .
If everyone had this passion about their work, this world would be a different place. Thank you, young lady.
Having teachers like her, learning wouldn't be a struggle for me
@@eclipse369. You sound intimidated. Just because she is passionate and studies something incredibly difficult, that you have no knowledge of, does not make her “ego too much”.
@@eclipse369. and you don’t know Jackie.
This presentation is MIND BLOWING! it's nearly impossible for the human mind to grasp. I love Jackie's passion, enthusiasm and humour.
I keep coming back her - such a delight. The visual information is amazing - the presenter's vibe is so pleasant, so powerful. It's a joy - one of the best videos in the CZcams video library.
Fascinating watching not only the movement of stars, but also the evolution of technology that allows us to gain a better perspective on the universe. Galileo would be proud.
The most incredible fact showcased here for me is this...I can now visualize with absolute astonishment the 37,000 light year distance between the large and small Magellanic clouds. And they look so close.
Amazing! Thank you for sharing this presentation. Jackie Faherty has a remarkable mind!
wisdom of this realm is foolishness to our creator..
#theawakeningisunstoppable
and this is just regurgitated garbal wisdom and cgi...wake up
Why didnt THEY PUT THIS ON THE NEWS? No, they rather flood the news with the latest drama of the Kardashian's
My favourite opinion.
PUT THIS ON THE NEWS! your fav girl is RIGHT!
Because nobody cares about Education, society is in ignorance of the factual truths and is developing an intellect in following fake-drama. Bad time for Education in the world.
The same reason why you are talking with your husband about the weather, how kids do at school or about the new neighbors. And not about Astrophysics...
Btw. I despise scientists whose first sentence during a lecture is "Are you all exited?" and who wear more jewelry then the Kardashians on the red carpet.
@@Astuga czcams.com/video/Nzb-VmUCaxM/video.html
None of all you specialists in Physics, Math, Engineering, Mechanics, Chemists, etc, etc, etc, could have done this alone. It is the TEAM which makes this all possible. Sincerely Yours, a team member!
Absolutely amazing! Thank you so much, Jackie!
WOW, she is pure passion about this subject. For someone who knows nothing, or at least very, little, I'm now totally hooked after listening to her and have booked up for a night at the planetarium near Kielder, England. She has as much energy as the universe lol. Loved it.
Fascinating. As a 65 year old, I'm astonished at all advances in science, since I was young. Fascinating again, to speculate, what will be, in another 40 years! Love this presentation.
There's so much we still don't know. I envy future generations.
Really? You envy them? Of what? Polluted and toxic planet? Thanks but no thanks. Think Fallout not Star trek.
Toxic soil, polluted oceans, dirty rivers. Clean water will be more valuable than gold. Planet earth will be a wasteland in 200 years or sooner.
We ARE our predecessors' future generation.
freeze yourself
Galileo probably said the same thing.
Science can take blame for some of those things we do not know.
I really enjoyed this presentation. Thank you for sharing the data visualizations with the world.
WOW.
I love astronomy and science, been loving and following it for years now. So I'm not easily impressed but wow and indeed. Our milky way like never seen/simulated before. Great work!
Fantastic presentation - well done! Jackie's love of her work and enthusiasm for spreading the "magic" is so infectious!
"Live hard, Die Fast Stars" ........like Jimi Hendrix/Janis Joplin and the rest of the 27yr old club
Astrophysicist Jackie Faherty gave a spectacular presentation. I love when these show up online, more and more cutting edge science is being done every day! Jackie's project on the Brown Dwarf plants is also connected with Galaxy Zoo! Sure didn't realize that until I looked up her link online and found it connecting up my Galaxy Zoo acc. Sure wish those images were a little bit more beautiful. It's such a bummer, I miss all the exciting new images!
Good Luck with your Brown Dwarf planet search Miss Jackie! Thank you for the wonderful presentation. 😍
Wow, there are a lot of mean-spirited critiques here. Where's the childlike wonder that this technology deserves? It's fantastic technology. Thank you Jackie Faherty for your high-spirited presentation,
@MonkeyZorr Right..that's why there are so many of us are here commenting on her political jobs. lol
@Don Pelton, I agree, so many haters here. I enjoyed the hell out of this presentation, I'm over 60 but her enthusiasm made me feel like a kid again. These bozos are yawning and whining but I'm wishing it was 2 hours longer.
I'm not a child anymore.
There's the childishness! Ah... From the mouths of babes. @@CrimsonBlot
@@CrimsonBlot I'm sorry. I thought we were talking about mean spirited critiques.
Astronomy is so fascinating. The passion in her voice is pure and authentic. Wished I would have been more intuned when I was in school. Kudos to you young lady.
This woman is passionate about her subject matter, she knows her stuff and she breaks really complex theories into plain English so that shmucks like me can understand. Really enjoyed her presentation!!
Oh my goodness, i love this woman's passion. I wish I could hang out with these scientists. So much to learn.
Thank god for youtube... did i just say that? lol
But really, there are so many gems of up to date talks from scientists that we would never be privy to otherwise. The next best thing to hanging out with them.
wake up, earth is flat and stationary, space is a hoax, there is a firmament above us, people are waking up everyday.
@@godschild5587 God is probably very unhappy because you doubt HIS CAPACITY OF CREATING A GIANT UNIVERSE.
You should be ashamed of trying to diminsh HIS WORK with this continuous effort,so you could feel special and important.
At the moment ,you are NOT acting like a God´s child.
You are acting like a VERY IGNORANT CHILD,ignoring God and His creation.
The importance of people is not measured by the size of their body in the universe or the size of the universe around humans.The importance of people is measured by the capacity of accepting and recognizing how great is the Creator and His Creation.
The Universe is Immense and His creator moves all over its extension.
Deal with it.
@@billybelcaro9585 Unfortunately, there are people who make comments like the one I saw after yours.
Physics and lots of math will get you there.
Amazing work scientists and engineers.. Thank you.
...don't any of them bump into each other?!....
Had to watch twice and could watch it again..alot of work went into this and ty for opening up our minds more.
Jackie is precious ! Explains so the average person can grasp the facts.
This is absolutely amazing stuff!! Thank you for the presentation, Dr. Faherty!
I love this visualization style. As an artist I like the scale it can boggle your mind with.
Fantastic presentation! With the pace of data coming in from present probe projects, it's really great to see renderings of this data in visualizations that are easily digestible. I applaud Ms. Faherty for bringing all this together is a way that allows us all to appreciate what is out there in a way that's never been seen before. A real movie of what is happening instead of a simplistic animation. Really fantistic stuff! Keep up the amazing work Jackie and I look forward to more of these awesome presentations.
sure, "real"
I've presented to Aerospace companies for 20 years, in my former Metrology career... this Lady is one of the best presenters i've seen. Super impressive technology.
I am SO GLAD I came across this video. Thank you!
My feelings exactly.
did it open up your eyes
I disagree with the people bashing her way of presenting this. I do feel like an 8 year old and this was perfect. Made me really interested and on the edge of my chair. Awesome presentation, awesome video, great job!
Agreed. She's presenting to a diverse audience, not colleagues. Maybe all the haters here are Astrophysicists.
Agreed Robert. The lady's enthusiasm is infectious. She a true devotee of an important subject.
you feel like an 8 year old??
Thank you for making an excellent point. This stuff is NOT easy to understand!!
@@Blox117 I can't speak for Robert Stevenson, but I (a 55 year old man) do feel the excitement of an 8 year old learning this stuff. Which is a testament to her presentation ability. Even if you don't have an astronomy/cosmology background, you can still get as excited as a 3rd grader having your eyes opened with this kind of revelation, and I love how she ends it by saying that anyone can help with this analysis, anyone can open their inner scientist and experience the same kind of wonder that obviously drives her research. Well done.
To see the first take and use of new revolutionary data set is always very exciting. I can only imagine the implication of this new data and its uses will take decades to fully utilise. Red dwarfs are exciting and potentially enormous by way of opportunities. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming. Its amazing to think back to Carl Sagan's cosmos as a boy and the imagery was based on theory and those shown here are based on actually data plotting paths and motion etc. Truly exciting times. For us all.
Invitation accepted, thanks for the Christmas present!
Telescopic perspective is still and real, but motion drawn from other perspectives
is animated, based on calculated data to be processed in millions of years. (Years?)
Since time doesn't exist, I have used the term Process for time, while year is the
duration of the process of Earth rotation around Sun, which is just another process
like numerous other processes, such as duration of cooking food in kitchen is different
from the duration of process of a year.
If you still think time exists, then think of vacuum or empty space, somewhere in the infinity,
without any processes, where I would imagine duration of my cooking process, you would
imagine a year on Earth and someone else would imagine drive from home to office, etc, etc
but in fact, there were no processes to measure in vacuum or empty space somewhere in the infinity.
Now its easier to think of Eternity (timelessness) in the Infinity (limitlessness) as well, where,
Processlessness aare actually the Timelessness. Thanks for reading.
This is literally awesome! It is equally humbling. There is so much to look upon, observe over time, study, test, etc. All that we come to know is but a step toward greater knowledge and understanding of all of life and existence itself. Wondrously fascinating! Thank you much for sharing this!
She does transfer her enthusiasm very well, you can tell, she is escited and this is partially her child. Love the way she refers to it. People like that bring other people ahead, she is great. The data must be absolutely humongous.and i can only congratulate, and thank for it.
WOW!! she is fantastic, wish I had a teacher with her interest in Science back in the day, when we hadn't even landed on the Moon with a surveyor space craft... Even up to the Apollo landing... teachers in high school were like robots themselves just doling out information... I hope there are more like her, who know how to turn kids on to STEM subjects... Even if there are few jobs, with knowledge comes power.... My parents believed in having a well rounded education, and they tried their best to get us involved intellectually with the science discoveries of the 50's and 60's which helped with the explosion of information and technologies that has happened since, and powers my interest to this day about the future... without that, I'd be another 70+ senior, sitting in a nursing home, waiting to peg out... Remember that as you teach your kids and others... you are helping them to navigate through life's technical and social changes, not just supplying them with the tools to earn a living...
Great advice, thank you.
Your style and approach to explaining how the galaxy look and function is just breathtaking! Great job Doctor. As a result, I definitely will visit the museum in the near future .
65 year old man here; I wish I was being born tomorrow to see what great 'stuff' Jackie Faherty discovers!! Happy to have enjoyed the Museum of Natural History for many years.
puts a lot of our "news" into a much more humble perspective. Thank you!
Oh no!!! I started to read the comments....WHY do I always start to read the comments?!?
Indeed. Humanity may be a lost cause.
@Jerome Walker Habit mostly. Plus comments on channels like, ChessNetwork, Numberphile, and PBS Space Time, among a few others are generally better than the normal noise.
They are good for truthful criticism.
I fall into the same trap, Colin. I share the feels.
Ha ha ha exactly my friend. Curiosity killed the cat...
OUTSTANDING PRESENTATION! I could not even sleep well last night thinking of that new data!!!! Wonderful!!!
Wow! I've played with the older data in Partiview. I would love to be able to turn on time and see the movement like this. Outstanding.
But she says your laptop will be crashed.
I liked the presentation. The mapping of our solar neighborhood is what most intrigues to me, finding out stuff so close to us that we never noticed before. Also, Astronomy seems very static when it comes to stars, being able to visualize their movement is pretty amazing.
I, too, was surprised to hear that there are many "brown dwarf" stars near us which are too dim for us to see.
Excellent presentation! In my junior year of high school I took a course in Astronomy. I quickly became an assistant to the prof and not only helping him with his projects, I occasionally helped teach class. This presentation of yours reminded me very much of the sort of things we did back then. One involved painting a scale model of the solar system ( relative to distance, but not size ) on the floor of the hallway. Another project involved a square yard of Styrofoam and hundreds of push pins to map out things in the galaxy relative to Earth. My final exam was to do my own presentation. I had the full use of the planetarium at my disposal. So I did one on how vast the Milky Way is. And I did it in relatable terms to everyday experiences. So this vid brought back some good memories. Thank you.
"Through the magic of science, but it's not magic, cause it's science." I like her.
Wow......I actually was able to comprehend some of the presentation. What a leap forward.!
She’s introducing science to people that may not otherwise be exposed. We’re currently dealing with a plague of anti-science beliefs and the rejection of truth. Anyone attempting to share knowledge to a wider audience shouldn’t be criticized but encouraged.
That's just not true. The only question in question is global climate change an to the degree that man is responsible. That is about it. The rest of science is pretty safe. Stop exaggerating the idea that Liberals are 100% truth seekers and science observers while all conservatives believe in creationism. Science is about skepticism not consensus. Consensus is politics. Science is about trying to disprove what someone else believes to be true till after much peer review it is proven to be true or false. While maNy experiments can appear to show a theory is true it only takes one to prove it is not.
Why do some people reject even the most basic and well-established science truths? There are two sexes. Nuclear power produces no carbon emissions. GMOs are harmless. The ban on DDT has cost a million lives in Africa. A significant number of climate scientists have raised serious objections to the claims of the warmists. But some people believe their political fantasies are more important than facts.
Brian is right, it's absolutely pathetic that so many Liberals think they have the total right to "Science". That Conservatives just cannot comprehend or refuse to. It makes me vomit when Liberals behave so condescending.
Justin Hopkins,
I detect a leftist who thinks science is God, and consensus is scripture.
*"The work of science has nothing whatever to do with consensus. Consensus is the business of politics. Science, on the contrary, requires only one investigator who happens to be right, which means that he or she has results that are verifiable by reference to the real world. In science consensus is irrelevant. What are relevant are reproducible results. The greatest scientists in history are great precisely because they broke with the consensus. There is no such thing as consensus science. If it's consensus, it isn't science. If it's science, it isn't consensus. Period." --Michael Crichton*

@@JayJay-ki4mi
Science is a method, not a body of knowledge. I don't think anyone is a "science denier." The people who accuse others of being a "science denier" are usually the ones trying to pretend that their interpretation of the data (body of knowledge) is the only acceptable interpretation. They're the ones who think consensus is science.
Fascinating stuff made even more interesting by an excellent presenter who with genuine enthusiasm made this sound like an Apple event!!
Truly, the human mind and our capabilities are amazing. Its only a few hundred years since we really had much clue what was going on out there and we’ve got this far. What do the next couple of millennia hold??? A culmination of effort from much of the global population, from astronomers, chemists, engineers, project managers, accountants, governments and tax payers, this really is one of the whole human races achievements.
Muslims defeat us and return us to the stone age. That's what the future holds.
Seeing the 'Magellanic clouds' above the Milky Way takes me back 30 years to climbing in the Andes & camping near
This is absolutely fantastic work by Jackie Faherty! ... So proud that my ancestor Collis P Huntington was a founder of the American Museum of Natural History and funded the Huntington Expeditions ... I worked with the evolutionary microbiologist Dr. Lynn Margulis who co-wrote the Gaia Hypothesis [Margulis was also married to astrophysicist Carl Sagan] and I later pioneered augmented reality and photographed NASA's Orion Journey to Mars First Test Launch at the Kennedy Cape Canaveral through Google Glass ... This is SO COOL! ... amazing use of technology! ... We are star stuff! #Gaia #GaiaHypothesis #DataVisualization #MappingtheGalaxy
I was a bit familiar with the Gaia mission but not with Margulis' Gaia Hypo until I saw your post and investigated. After watching a thorough 10 part series "Voyage of the Continents" for many weeks at bedtime recently, I kind of drew the same conclusion of the hypothesis: It's as Earth is a living organism closely tied and evolving alongside what we deem life. Whether this is just a probable roll of the dice or intentional, well that is a whole 'nother topic :D Love your enthusiasm! Highly recommend that series.
looks like you are very proud? Pride is foolish. Downvoted. PS I like scientists, but I cannot comprehend PRIDE. I think it's some sort of illness. I would have understood if you had written 'it's so pleasant, I feel that my actions are so important for the humanity, and touching this well fills me with joy, and my fountain sparkles!'. I'll downvote any pride-filled turkey-cock.
I have been to many presentations at this museum and to say she is presenting to layman is a correct assessment.
These presentations are only attended by interested lay-people like me, who have paid actual money to hear these presentations. That is not to say I am not educated. My degrees are in Biology and my Masters is in Multimedia Technologies...but I still attend because the presentations are presented in a style that everyone can understand. Her manner of talking truly is due to living in New York but her style of presenting the facts, is entirely due to talking to laypeople. The audience came for a show Not an education lecture as you would get in a college class. They are likely to be people with a passing love of astronomy, whatever their day job may be, who paid their 10 bucks to learn what the latest news is in observed astronomy. They aren't an audience of physicists nor astronomers, but hobbyists and potential Museum Donors ($$$) who need things explained in simple terms, and WOW'ed by what the museum staff are doing, or could be doing with more funding.
Also, this is more of a teaser than a comprehensive explanation of the galaxy. If you want the details, there are plenty of people willing to give talks (and she might well be one of them) that last an hour or more. They may even be in the same building.
She makes me puke in my mouth a little.
@@clevername8832 Why do you say that? We should appreciate scientists like her trying to motivate young people to marvel at the universe around us and to want to find out more. If we judge them by the way they talk or look, scientists like Stephen Hawking would have given up trying to interact with the public long ago.
What's all this doing for your everyday common man? With these billions spent, what's it concretely doing for us?
@@rogerdodger8415 Just compare the pittance (thousands or millions) allowed for basic science research compared to dropping untold billions on defense. I'm not saying that defense isn't necessary, just that congress willingly gives defense the lion's share of taxpayer's money and tosses 5% of that amount towards the science that not only educates humanity about the reality of their place in the cosmos (i.e. relieves their ignorance) but may also lead to new science and technologies that benefit mankind...you know, like in the past, the science research that led to COMPUTERS, SMART PHONES, the INTERNET, advanced agriculture to stave off the FAMINES of the past, advanced MEDICINE that prolongs and improves the quality of LIFE. Just because you may not stop and think about or be aware of these advances that ultimately behoove you doesn't mean that you should denigrate them out of your ignorance.
so amazing. sped up in the 'fly-by' animation those stars appear like motes of dust in a sunbeam. truly perspective-changing
Astonishing! Many thanks for the post.
I am so excited to see what the James Webb Space Telescope will discover!
Still Waiting.....

I know. Me too. Can’t wait til the 2050’s for first light😒
@@2campercamper I never had the pleasure to meet a purple hippo, but that doesn't mean he is not of this world...you proof it. But to stay with the subject : it is not because you don't understand science and the "jargon" these two are not real , not observable, measurable, etc, etc. .The universe is measurable....but we have still to refine our means to do it. Patience is part of science.
@@2campercamper , Before you hit the reply tab, you should proof read what you write! Your first line shows that you can't even make a complete sentence. Maybe a basic English class wouldn't hurt you.
Third time I've watched this because it's captivating and beautifully presented by a brilliant and energetic astrophysicist. Every time we go to NYC we make sure we go to the MNH and buy tickets to the Hayden Planetarium...we've never been disappointed.
Exciting and brilliant speaker, fascinating and mind-blowing science!!!! Over the top!! Thanks!!
So with Gaia's data we can plot the distance and trajectories of stars and place each one where it SHOULD be in time without time delay caused by distance and the speed of light. For example Proxima Centauri is the closest star to Sol, but we see it 4.3 years behind where it is actually located in space due to the light speed time delay of 4.3 years. Now we can show exactly where it is in its orbit of Alpha Centauri A and B binary system as well as exactly where those two stars are in their binary orbits around each other. So we can remove the time delay of what we see in the night sky and where these and other stars are really located in the Milky Way. That will siginificantly help in persuing 1/5 or 1/10 speed of light travel to out nearest stellar neighbors for navigating to them correctly.
Pup314 Thanks for your thoughts. I had not considered time delay in visualizing these star positions. The presenter did not say whether her visualizations were corrected for time, that near stars are closer to their current positions relative to the sun and distant stars are billions of years from the positions we see them. I have spent a lot of time listening to scientific presentations and making them myself, though not on astronomy. I prefer to have each visual aid, like a graph, clearly explained, ordinate, abscissa, dimension, scale, trend lines, error bars, colors & symbols etc. In this case I kept feeling that the scale and resolution and the meaning of other characteristics of the images were left to my imagination. It can seem obvious to the presenter since they look at their data every day, but for most other people, taking time to explain what we are seeing is much appreciated. For example, early in the presentation I could not reconcile the apparent star burst pattern of bright stars which seems not to match the spiral distribution of matter in the galaxy. Could you explain for me what was being shown? Another question I had was later in the presentation of the distribution of iron rich stars represented in green. She said the more distant stars were bluer, so less iron and therefore older. But when she pulled back in the image of the galaxy, the green stars formed a starburst pattern in a small region of the galaxy. Is that because of the time factor you mentioned above. Thank you.
@@drmasroberts From what I understand the Kepler view was towards the constellation of Cygnus the Swan, and the stars we see are those stars in that direction we see from Earth. Kepler 2 mission after its gyroscopes had somewhat failed was allowed to look around the ecliptic for brief (compaired to the previous Kepler observation time) observations. So for Kepler 1 mission we are looking across a few spiral arms in a narrow area of view. Kind of like looking through a cardboard tube. we will see some near by objects and some medium objects and some distant objects in the field of view. I think (I am trying to understand this myself) the time dilation effect for the iron rich (green stars) compared to the distribution of the blue stars is not a major factor as the distances are in thousands and tens of thousands of years distant, and has more to do with concentration of super nova ejecta( heavier metalicitiy of stars formed from the super nova ejecta) towards the center of the galaxy. That sine more matter is closer in to the central black hole you will get heavyer stars that are both younger and live shorter lives, and enrich the instellar medium with heavier elements faster, as opposed to the outer rim and spirals of our galaxy where stars might be fewer in number smaller in mass on average, and thus longer lived and producing less heavy elements. I think, too, that locations of the actual spiral arms where matter is concentrated more also plays a part. I hope that helps you. I certainly do not know of all the variables in this scenario.
This is a question I've had for a long time now as well. As I hear about maps of the universe, I'm thinking that such maps are distorted by time delay. I have often wondered whether someone could construct a model of the universe, or our local area of the universe, that positions stars where we predict they should be now based on their velocity and trajectory. I've emailed several astronomers over the years with no reply to this question.
@@Knoxvilletim Maybe now with this Gaia star probe such information it gathers will make such a real time map possible? Maybe see if you can email the AMNH to find out the name of this presenter and take a look at the actual information and learn how to set it up yourself? Maybe star with the closes 10 stars to our Sun. some of shich would be Proxima Centauri, Alpha Centauri A, Alpha Centauri B, Barnard's star, to name 4 i can remember off the top of my head.
That is beautiful. But it is hard to beat the mid pacific too. Thanks for sharing!
Thank You .. Merci .. very well presented by "Jackie Faherty" of American Museum of Natural History ..!!
Inspired! Thank you! What a great talk. I love that you talk about real science like it's normal. Making it real to lay people. And what a fascinating story. Will never look at the stars in the same way. THANK YOU. Please do more. We need more people like you in these times. How can I help?
Love this! Thank you for sharing!
Awesome presentation, I wish science teachers could be like her!
I wonder why most intelligent science people choose not to teach?
What a knowledgable and clear, forthright sharing of the latest we have on star creation and mapping star/galaxy movement over accelerated timeframes. I detect no brashness or aggression from the excellent presenter whose enthusiasm drives the presentation.
These stars are moving like molecules in air , how vast the difference in scale and yet the familiarity is mindblowing ! We now have an accurate representation of the galaxies , a step towards understanding space.
I really like her enthusiasm about space exploration and astronomy.

Thank you Jackie for this superb presentation, AMNH just gained a new sub.
Nice to see such enthusiasm. I like her presentation and I like the content. I have a masters degree but this is not my field so I guess you could say I'm a layman and I find this very interesting at this level.
@@PersonalStash420 I would give you 10 "likes" if I could, you've said what we all think brother 😀👍
Science asks questions that may never be answered; religion preaches answers that may never be questioned.
@@lbpiercy It would be nice if someone occasionally answered any questions at all, though. ;-)
I agree with you: the risk is that, missing good questions or answers, we assume that the questions we have matter and the answers given to them are correct.
@@lbpiercy "History shows science declares answers that are often later proven wrong."
Uhu, and the thing that proves them wrong is more science, you fuckwit. Science, when it turns out to have been mistaken, will learn from its mistakes and build a new model that better fits the data we have. Religion just shuts its eyes and ears and screams "NAHNAHNAHNAH, CAN'T HEAR YOU!"
@@lbpiercy Never mind, you're right. My response was uncalled for.
Thank you Jackie. Lovely video just the way only you can do it. Love it.
One has to love Jackie's passion!
Exactly that i was going to comment
Jackie Faherty is amazing. She is such a wonderful inspiration. Thank you!!
Yes indeed! She is a splendid scientist. I wish her all possible succes in her carrier.
She's a waffling bore. I didn't hear any science, all I heard was planetarium marketing.
Silly-Ass BROAD Should Be In Front Of Third Graders
@@kneedeepinbluebells5538 I wish she was! Maybe then we'd have more kids becoming scientist, and not bible-thumping morons!

I love this Amazing presentation thank you!
Wow, wow wow. I am flashed. Makes me humble and thoughtful.... We as humans only have this world and how are we treating it! Space, we only can reach it in our dreams. Thank you for this excellent presentation.
I hope you are able to teach many other people because you are great at it. You make the information fairly simple to a wide verity of intelligence levels In terms of knowledge of astronomy. Your enthusiasm for your subject is clear and powerful. I hope we hear more from you in the future.
Superb. Thank you for sharing.
Here's another beautiful rendition of our satellites in space. Here's some stars that are also in space.
About time we got some fresh blood into Astrophysics... well done, Jackie Faherty !!
*We have a Universe to Explore !!*
This captured beauty of a world beyond our little dot is an absolutely inspiration..Thank you for sharing!
Amazing, thanks for contribution 🙏
This is jaw dropping. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing these amazing views with us!
Wow. An amazing presentation. I enjoyed watching it
Brilliant. Inspiring. Enlightening. Powerful. Important. Just a few words that could never do justice to an accomplishment of this magnitude. Here's two more words, "thank you."
Important was a stretch
Great presentation and great science.
WOW. This is super Awesome. Stuff like this when it is revealed makes you wonder how much more there is that we have to figure out yet even in our own solar neighbourhood let alone other galaxies.
answer : a lot
Very nice. Science missed the matter that is in the vacuum and that causes this.... czcams.com/video/Hb8pvboJEYo/video.html
vikrant tyagi .. All of it! That's what's left to figure out.. They don't know shit.. Theories, imagination and belief, that's what they got.. They have a butt load of unproven theories and some how the masses quantify that as fact based knowledge when it's not even close on the best of days..
No, "stuff like this" is not only false, intentionally misleading, but also an indication of how dumbed down society is.
Don't let them fool you with their educations, their fundings, their titles and their claim to be scientists. What you have witnessed right there is the opposite. It is entirely speculation. Speculation about the weight of those stars, the lifetimes, the sizes, the densities, the rotations, the interactions. etc etc etc. Do you really think a computer can accurately calculate how two stars collide? Do you think they can accurately simulate the movement of millions of stars for millions of years?
These are the quantum physicists as they might want to call themselves. They claim reality is in essence nothing but data. This requires a framework for the data to be processed. So they claim we live in a simulation. Every single quantum physicist HAS to believe this. If you walk in a place no human being has yet walked, they claim reality is rendered just before your eyes can pick it up. If you don't go there, they claim it is not rendered....... It is madness. The error of the interpretation of a man called Einstein.
Light has no zero rest mass. That was Einsteins argument of why light would be the fastest possible thing. If it has no rest mass, and if force is applied to it, it has to travel at the fastest possible speed (if not disturbed by the medium in which it travels). So they claim that the speed of light is the maximum speed. That's absured. Then they keep on working on specifically this point.
Every person who calls him or herself a scientist and believes in quantum physics, will tell you to first learn about the speed of light. It's more rediculous than any religion I've ever encountered, and there are some wicked ones out there.
@@dismian7 Good sir, or madam, I take contention with your assertion that They claim light to be the maximum speed. No such claim has been made. E=mc² can be interpreted to say that -physical matter- cannot travel at lightspeed, or that if were to that it would undergo a change in state; specifically, from being physical to being energy. However, I have no qualms with your assertion that the Science Oligarchy does peddle a great deal of swill in a great many of the higher Sciences.
Beautifully done! I, for one, strongly believe that while scientific analysis should always be done with dispassion, presentation of such findings should always be with passion. Sadly, in most cases, we get the opposite: we get passionate research and dispassionate, boring presentations. Not so with this one! The amount of enthusiasm is so dense that it's almost tangible. How anyone can hate this, I don't understand at all. Kudos and well done! Love from S Asia!
It's great to hear someone speak who is passionate about the subject.👍👍👍👍👍
Good stuff. If we replay the motions which Gaia now reveals for neighbors, are there any past near transits that might coincide with major past climatic fluctuations or extinction events?
Not quite. See, you have current position, velocity and direction for all these star. From that, you can make linear plots. What you cannot make is accurate predictions because all the stars here are constantly being influenced by the complex gravity fields of other moving objects in the galaxy. Add in the uncertainty of dark matter and dark energy, and all plotting predictions going forwards or backwards becomes increasingly erroneous in an exponential way. Watch the video at 15:30 and notice all the star pairs/groups are moving in straight lines across those millions of years. In reality, they would be moving in curves as they proceed through and with gravity of all other objects.
Still, very educational and entertaining! :-)
@@valkyriefrost5301 thats a good point, but i would still be very interested to see that information. for stars that are close enough or moving fast enough, i think even a straight-line approximation would probably still be fairly informative out to several millions of years.
@@Speedj2 I wish we could target our searches towards comets (perturbed by our past millions years nearby stars passing us by). I wish we could see where we could expect oort-cloud hits, but we're nowhere near that precision. So it's still "same old" look out at every direction and hope a killer-comet is not coming from near the sun (only about four days warning period), then hope we can make difference in trajectory in few months we would have left.
Sholz star fucked us really bad 70k years ago
@Geo Well yeah, obviously. Anything larger than ~20 km across is likely to have caused all life on Earth to go extinct! The Chicxulub impactor is only hypothesized to have been 10 to 15 km across and that (apparently) caused the entire Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event.
A near transit might simply perturb Oort or Kuiper Belt objects sufficiently to "stir" them up and send a few on reoriented trajectories that impact Earth.
You are making me sooo excited
You're a great speaker, presenter, and SMART! Just like me....I wish. Like your video very much.
Great job! thanks for keeping us engaged.
Brilliant! I'll be following all this closely... I have a few questions.. 1. As the light we see from all stars indicates their positions when the light started its journey to us, and that those stars have moved by the time the light the light reaches us, I assume the stars positions have been corrected accordingly. Some of those stars will have burned out, or even supernova'd in the intervening time. Also, new star will have been created... How have the gravitational influences of now dead and newly formed stars been accounted for in the program's projection many millions of years in the future? And if you are going back in time, what about stars that have supernova'd that we don't know about? Cheers and please keep releasing these incredible insights to our universe...
Well, to account for the gravity of the stars which we can't see (brown dwarfs, etc.) and also that of the "dark matter" which we can't see, I'm sure that they have factored in the best estimates available. After all, they do this for a living.
Chris A - A fact I pointed out in one of my papers in university 56 years ago. If the sun nova'd, we wouldn't know it for eight minutes! My point was that ALL 'knowledge' is actually a belief.
@@eltigre249 Oh no... Beliefs are things we believe it, and haven't any solid proof (like religions and gods). 'Knowledge' is the body of scientifically proven facts, like dinosaurs, fossils, climate change and a round earth....
@@eltigre249 Knowledge aka sciences try their damnedest not to be beliefs. By using instruments beyond the scope of what the human form can measure, we continue to prove and disprove thru peer review and thru many different scientific disciplines. When all of these things continue to point at the same thing, we become more certain of its truth. Scientists are fully aware that not every understanding is 100% correct. Having confidence of 99% can be used to build upon, and as it gets built upon and scrutinized from all involved sciences it becomes further cemented and understood. What would be the alternative? To give up because we do not know for 100%?
If the sun nova'd, we would know not fthru the human form but from our instruments/tools and calculations/predictions. From current data, the sun will become a Red Giant set to reach the orbit of Earth 5bil yrs from now, but don't worry... enough other stuff will be happening that it won't be our only concern and hopefully by then we'll have alternatives.
A 'belief' is something that you cannot necessarily prove to others, nor others prove for you. 'Knowledge' is stuff that first we prove, then continues to be proven and can be proven by others.
Belief: Someone thinks another is still overly concerned about their college paper from 96 yrs ago because maybe they feel their paper received an erroneous bad grade.
Knowledge: Looking up the actual grade of that paper and knowing it.
Wow, Jackie.... this is fascinating! Thank you!
I Love this woman's presentations. She is the reason I subscribed to this channel.
It's so sad that if this was a song video or a cat putting a hat on it would a hundred times the views and comments! We are so lucky to have this brilliant mind blowing information available at a push of a few buttons. I think about the graph paper we had on our school ceiling representing time and the mobile solar systems we had hanging in our science classrooms and think who could have dreamed we would have this information in such a short period of time. The next decade and beyond is going to bring things we are not capable of even imagining!
I love to see hear passion in her voice and see it on her face
I know right.... Not nearly enough women have interest in something outside of a selfie; lunch with the girls.. .etc.... (So it seems anyway)... So yeah this is really a turn on lol..
@Welsh Simon you're not wrong.
@Benaiah Ahmadinejad word
I would like to see MY passion....on her face....lol
@@GabeTheGun1 I just like her cute voice
I have to ask. Why should I be afraid? All of the scenarios the presenter said that we shouldn't be afraid of, but do be afraid anyway, won't happen for least one million years.
So I have have to ask, again. Why should we be afraid?
terb reduob Understood. But I'm still not afraid. 😎
@@MarkOden Well, basically, I think she showed star (with its own oort-cloud of comets) passing our star "soon", so you could conclude that earlier stars passing through our oort cloud would perturb stones and they would be hitting us. Nothing we can do about it now, she did not say we should advance our monitoring of space so we don't get wiped out ("like dinosaurs"). Though dinosaurs were on their way out anyhow, a hit by comet just speeded it up a bit.
She didn't say it directly but add 10-10000x amount of stars to any video she showed and you may get a decent picture what's happening... We need a plan to divert stuff dropping our way.
That's why she said 'don't be afraid, but do be afraid'. Just like when you look into the Yellowstone Super Volcano or the other things that could cause extinction level events for earth in the far far future. They're things that are scary, but so far away or unknown that its not worth actually being scared about.
Justin Miller Your analogy is comparing a person with a bad heart wondering if they will ever have a heart attack to someone with a bad heart wondering if a jet plane will ever fall on them.
@@MarkOden I don't get why you didn't like his analogy. He was on point with it. What this data shows is, that stars are "constantly" passing by. This can cause asteroids or comets getting pushed into our solar system, potentially hitting earth. Before that "we didn't think" that other stars would pass us so frequently.
Its scale means "Don't be afraid, this is stuff that might happen in a million years or so". Its implications mean "But be afraid" because you should always remember: The universe is very hostile towards life. The fact we're here, is dumb luck. Dumb luck can run out over night.
This is truly a groundbreaking project. A few decades from now we will know so much more because of this. After computers are able to render at higher speeds we should be able to map and project the movements off all the stars in our galaxy.
Hey that is awesome info. Thanks for sharing. Keep it up !
These visualizations really need to be done in 3D, collapsing star movements into a plane leaves out so much info
Haha, the shape of the Kepler data is so embarrassing, if aliens capture our star charts they will totally be able to tell that we can't build reliable reaction wheels :(
Use your got damn brain, boy! This is the usa.
If 3d rendering was used, yhe Federal Researve would find a way to 🍒🍌it up and Tax it.
Lol
Yeah...I guess utilizing rendering software and required processing power would optimize the visual effects thus enabling "brain matter" of individuals that lack previously quoted word, to understand what a proper visualization should look.
In theory

They are in 3D. Like she said, they're pre-made videos because the data set is so huge that she can't do it in realtime on her laptop for the presentation.
