  • This video tours Webb’s NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) image of supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A). NIRCam’s high resolution detects tiny knots of gas leftover from the star’s explosion, as well as light echoes scattered across the field of view.

      "estimated that it exploded 340 years ago as seen from Earth" That's just a weird way to phrase it. If it's located 11,000 light years away, when did it really explode? 340+11,000=11,340 years ago?

      One light year is a unit of distance, not time. It represents the distance that light travels in one year. The speed of light is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. To calculate the distance in kilometers that light travels in one year, you can use the formula:
      \[ \text{Distance} = \text{Speed of Light} \times \text{Time} \]
      So, \(1 \text{ light year} \approx 9.461 \times 10^{12} \text{ kilometers}\).
      It's important to note that a light year is a measure of distance, not time.

      Black holes are still fkn with my head. The math says that if you pass the event horizon, not only are you pulled into the center (spaghetti like) but also space and time are sort of inverting so your experience of time also spaghettifies and approaches infinity like your mass. It's also a big hollow space with the singular point inside it being where all the dense mass was/still is/exited through a corresponding white hole somewhere/when else. Also Hawking proved black holes are emitting a type of radiation and therefor will eventually reduce and disappear. Talk about one wild ride.

    • @jaiachin9579
      @jaiachin9579 Před 5 měsíci

      @@TragoudistrosMPH definitely a hibernation system as you call it. I don’t see interstellar travel possible for humanity, at least for us being on-board. It would take about 6,300 years to reach Proxima Centauri in a spacecraft moving 5 mi/sec., given the star is roughly 4.2465 light years away.
      I believe that reaching the outer planets in our solar system may be possible in the next 100+ years ( maybe many more ) if spacecraft evolves to travel at speeds feasible to make it there within a few years. You gotta think that even spacecraft moving at 20 mi/ sec would decrease the amount of years to get to Proxima Centauri, but that’s still 1,575 (give or take) years then. Betelgeuse (in Orion) is hundreds of light years away from us, so imagine that!
      All in all, I firmly believe that it is possible to further innovation and technology to achieve such a task as our solar system being explored. However I do not think that will come in our lifetime. Nor do I think it’s going to be possible at all travel among the stars.
      Even though we’ve made so much progress in the last century with everything to medicine, technology, etc., I still think there is quite some time ( if at all, any) before that could happen.
      The last two things I’d like to day is that: given stars are that far apart and away from Earth, the only possible scenario would be NASA (or whoever in the future) sending out something to travel interstellar. Even then, it’d take thousands of years for the FUTURE after that to even get data back to us humans. Lastly, because space is expanding faster and faster, galaxies are moving along with it at high speeds, which means you’ll just never catch up to see a star.

      It's going to be a year or two before we start seeing that kind of stuff. Taking single images of bright milky way objects only takes a short time. Whereas spectra on Earth sized planets will take dozens if not hundreds of runs to stack all the datasets to filter out the noise and get clear results. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for this bit too.

    • @TheStockwell
      @TheStockwell Před 6 měsíci +11

      I hope this helps: Cassiopeia A is thought to have exploded 10,000 years ago. The light from the explosion was finally seen on Earth 340 years ago, not 340 years *after the explosion.*
      Beethoven died almost 200 years ago. If you're just now hearing about, it's not because it took 200 years for the news to reach us. He died two centuries ago. You're just now learning about it, 200 years after the fact.
      Some cutting and pasting:
      "The light from the exploding star reached Earth 320 years ago. ( . . . )." Cas A "resides 10, 000 light-years away (. . . ) so the star actually blew up 10, 000 years before the light reached Earth in the late 1600s."
      It took me a while to understand how that works.

    Most men's games are associated with "hitting the target" (football, hockey, billiards, basketball, etc.). It seems that there is something with innate instincts, and maybe sexual - purposefulness is attracted by emptiness (a gate, a hole). And here there is such a huge void (the Universe), and even with a lot of black holes... It looks like astrophysics has a great future!... Well, about the growth of the "intellectual potency" from man to humanity - see from the DrSci: "Biophysics of Evolution of Intellectual Systems" // Biophysics, 2022, Vol. 67, No. 2, pp. 320-326.
