    Cosmology & Astronomy on Khan Academy: The Earth is huge, but it is tiny compared to the Sun (which is super huge). But the Sun is tiny compared to the solar system which is tiny compared to the distance to the next star. Oh, did we mention that there are over 100 billion stars in our galaxy (which is about 100,000 light years in diameter) which is one of hundreds of billions of galaxies in just the observable universe (which might be infinite for all we know). Don't feel small. We find it liberating. Your everyday human stresses are nothing compared to this enormity that we are a part of. Enjoy the fact that we get to be part of this vastness!
    About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.
    For free. For everyone. Forever. #YouCanLearnAnything

    I watched this entire segment of videos and this was a great way to end it. I really like the comparison between the chemical and mechanical layers of the earth!!!!

    Who decided that naming two different things the mesosphere was a good idea?

    Nice quick explanation about the differentiation of the earth. Glad you fixed the part about the mantle! It is propperly explained now =) ty. Maybe you should make a video about convection cells explaining the tectonic movements.
    Nice work!

    This need updating:
    -They have discovered in 2021 the Inner core is made of the 2 parts, solid inner most older with magnetism one way, and solid outer-inner younger with its magnetism about 90 degrees off.
    -Then the already , semi-known the liquid outer core which they think gives our magnetic field (which is getting turbulent causing the field to flip),
    -The known D boundary (really unknown, maybe crystalline),
    -The inner mantle (including the known large low shear velocity [hot] provinces under Africa and the Pacific Ocean, causing plumes like Hawaii and diamond tubes), and the outer mantle - all which which make up the mesosphere (maybe not all rigid),
    -The plastic asthenosphere, mostly rigid lithosphere and crust (including the various tectonic plates.)
