As a physicist once told me:
Quarks are strange - if you try to separate them the energy used creates new ones.
This is comparable to pulling on a rubber band so hard that, instead of breaking, a new rubber band pops into existence and the original reverts to its original position.
Rubber band mitosis
oh yeah i saw that happen once

🤣
The new rubber band literally being made out of the sheer force you used to pull it.
so infinite profit???
Having come back to this video after seeing a lot of theoretical apocalypse scenarios, it occurs to me that a lot of those scenarios can be summed up as "Our destruction would be instant, unavoidable, and we would have no idea it was about to happen beforehand because it would hit us at the speed of light."
Just a lovely little thought. Instant, spontaneous annihilation.
Suppose that’s better than a slow, drawn out extinction though.
It really makes me wonder if and how mankind could go extinct, or if mankind would just keep pushing and living on until the last black hole in the universe dies out, and then humans would eventually run out of energy and resources and die
Or maybe 5 billion years is just not enough for humans to make it out of the solar system onto a new habitable planet…

I think a Spore-like universe creation game made by you in your art style would be the coolest thing. Like say you're at the begining of the universe and the conditions are right to form a neutron star and the player decides whether it collapses into a black hole or not and whatever decision the player makes sets conditions for the future of the system. Once you've created the conditions for a planet to harbor life, you begin the planet stage and control conditions and events on the planet until the conditions create intelligent life. Once they reach their space age you go back to space and control their exploration and conditions of colonized planets. I'd play the hell out of something like that.

I have one question. If strange matter was to be put into a black hole, could it convert the singularity into strange matter? What would happen then, would it change into something horrific or just be a black hole except with a funky singularity?
The answer is…maybe, but it makes zero difference.
Nothing is more dense than a black hole’s singularity. period. A “strange” black hole would be entirely identical to any other black hole of comparable size.
@@AJSSPACEPLACE Maybe black holes are 'strange' on the inside
On the outside? Absolutely nothing would happen. On the inside? No one can know or even attempt to guess. Things inside a black hole are so weird and unpredictable that there is literally no way to guess what goes on there. All our rules of space and time and matter and energy don’t just break, they cease to exist entirely. Infinity becomes possible and exists alongside negative infinity. A singularity is infinitely small yet at the same time is infinitely large as soon as you cross the event horizon.
The information paradox dictates that all matter falling into a black hole is effectively eliminated from existence once it reaches the horizon it doesn’t matter if it was strange because now it’s just more black hole
I just watched a video about atoms that they released 8 years ago. Neutron stars were mentioned there and it didn't discuss much about their core. I'm just amazed at how much science progresses over time.
Quarks: *having a nice party*
Strange quarks: _vibe check_

Jesus Christ oh shit

It'd be more like
"I am the perfect one. Become perfect with me or live life as a lame, unstable short lived mortal"
And literally any matter would just-
"ok"
@@JesusChrist-lx4vm and why?
Pushing strange matter into black holes is like when the main villain in the cartoon needs to join forces with the hero of the story to defeat an even more powerful villain.
lmao so true
Lmao, although it'd be more accurate to say that the arrogant main villain helps the hero destroy the new villain because only he has the right to torment the hero and test his strength.
Could the strange matter not react with the light around the black hole? Or create a strange black whole?
@@reasonablyobsessed If by the light around the black hole you mean the accretion disk then that matter could probably become strange, but it probably wouldn't matter too much because its about to get sucked into the black hole anyway. As for the black hole itself, it probably wouldn't matter if it became strange because all that matter will still be in the singularity, with no hopes of getting out.
Couldn't have said it better myself!

I have to really thank you for your consistent use of "could," "might be," and "it's possible" throughout this video. Too many things I've seen discussing topics we are only hypothesizing about state things very matter of factly, as if we know this is how it all is.

This comment section is enlightened already
It violated a lot of rules during the oversimplification . Their representations of the quarks are quite outdated . We use a Y bend to represent the bonding between the quarks . Also, according to Quantum Chromo mechanics , there can be any odd number of quarks in a proton . But as they said : oversimplification.
Raja Sundar Precisely, there are a lot of oversimplifications for the sake of general understanding. These videos are made for people who are just getting into science, math, and physics, not for experienced people. Still, they do a really great job and the animations are beautiful.

ezgi berf NOT AT ALL.
Here's a weird question: Could a REALLY advanced alien civilization make some kind of weapon that shoots strangelets?
Maybe, if they are very advanced.
Actually, it looks much cooler and fancier than, say, blowing up stars and spawning black holes which, I believe, became somewhat usual ways to write super-advanced aliens (as usual as they can be).
They could make a gun that looks like a laser gun until you realize it is shooting a compressed jet of strange quarks instead of light. Godzilla's atomic breath with some cosmic power up. Of course since it would be moving at a % of light speed and it is super dense strange matter, it would obliterate whatever it impacts before converting it to strange matter.
If you consider Kurge said theres a way to move stars by throwing their mass to where you want, you could do this but with Strange Stars and instead of being slow enough for it to stay in place its would be launched at high speeds. To contain strangelets inside some kind of magazine it would need a imense power to keep the inside of the gun in absolute vacuum to prevent air turning into strange matter, and a gravitation system to prevent the strangelet from touching anything that isnt a atom or matter. Strangelets guns probally would be only viable in space since any kind of atmosphere is made of matter too, so only in space where theres no matter to get transformed
Wouldn’t the gun itself turn to strange matter?

What I don’t understand: strange matter is created under the extreme pressure within the core of a neutron star. When two of these collapse and spill their contents into space, strange matter would all of a sudden face much less pressure and really cold temperatures. Wouldn’t it then go back to regular matter?

There is no reason to fear this.
Neutron star collisions are common enough with enough matter being ejected that there is no way we haven't already encountered matter from one.
Atoms are too numerous.
If you dump a cup of tea in the ocean then wait a few years and make a new cup from the ocean you will have a few atoms from that first cup.

This video is certainly fascinating, and I love a good thought adventure. As old as the universe is, if there were a danger of everything turning to strange matter wouldn't we have seen it happen already? At least in some part? The universe is like a perfect machine, and we don't understand it completely in our infancy as a species. I'm betting we're safe.
The universe is expanding faster than the speed of light at the outskirts. That's why we call it "the observable universe". The light from objects outside the observable universe will never reach us because it's coming off something that's "moving" faster than light so it'll never reach us
The expansion of the universe makes it seem like two far away objects are moving away from each other but they could both be stationary in space and it would still look like movement
Most of the strange matter would be too far away to reach us
If the volume of the object gets less that means the quirks are merging so this would mean its not contagious its just flying all around

*messes up my whole night*
but thats just a theory
@@ineedaname4480 A strange theory.

Who would win
The Unstoppable Vacuum Decay
Or
Some strange bois
i would vote for vacuum decay... cause many of the neutron stars collided by the time we are here.. so everything should be already strange matter
Vacuum decay can't catch up with expansion, so it depends on where the two occur in this hypothetical scenario. If they happen within the horizon of each other, vacuum decay would change the fundamental rules that allow quarks (strange or otherwise) to exist. If they don't happen within the horizon of each other, they go on blissfully unaware of each other.
Both are extremely unlikely to be true, though. Both require a bare assertion to be accepted - that they are a more stable energy state than what the universe settled into after 14.7+ billion years of numerous extreme conditions.
@@Merennulli is speaking the language of gods
Stangelets will have to start working fast, considering the universe is expanding exponentially. If it waits a few millions or billions of years, eventually there will be parts it'll never reach, because space is expanding so fast.
@@HayashiKaiji Actually, it's far too late for it to reach the entire universe from any given point. We can see the CMB in every direction, which is too early in the universe for star formation and shows uniform mixing of the early universe up to that point. The oldest things we can see in one direction inherently could never interact with the things we see in the other direction.
The more I learn about the Universe the more I am glad to simply exist right now in its time and enjoy it.

I was expecting some intellectual comments but instead was met with a sea of memes
welcome to youtube?
You wanted memes, you got em
That's strange, i didn't expect that.
The normies took over long ago.
I'm not mad tbh, the most intelligent comments you find in a normal youtube comment section are usually still mind numbingly stupid, it's insane how much bullshit there is on this site
It's nice that you guys are uploading on a weekly basis now!
i don't know tho fast uploads could lead into bad quality videos
@@pashaputrasupriatna4596 You think Kurzgesagt would upload a bad video?
I guess they have a larger team now.
True
@@zestoh_coffee_892 They already did.. Addiction and Refugee Crysis
Amazing, thank you!

Name oxygen molecules leads to corrosion and deterioration... i cant get the definite word but you still get the point right
Don't mind this, just another world-ending scenario that may be possible.
69th like
It's actually the same world-ending scenario, just with more specifics! This is basically the False Vacuum apocalypse. :)
I mean. If it did happen it would be rather quick.
Or, maybe not.
its not possible.
how old do you think existance is? if not eternal?
the end of it or even the start of it doesn't exist. It just is.
Strange matter has apparently been made in particle accelerators quite a few times. What Kurzgesagt didn't mention is that these strangelets decay immediately. It could only exist under extreme conditions
Yes. That is correct. They are only formed under extreme conditions. But even if they could persist, it wouldn’t do anything. Because it is not those strange matters that zombiefy everything. It is the gravity when they are crowded into tiny volume.
Maybe a dense clump of strange matter could create its own extreme conditions, because it's a lot of mass compressed into a tiny space. That means extreme gravity and hence also extreme pressure.
Man that seriously sounds like some scifi stuff, instantly reminds me of Phazon from the Metroid Prime series. And suddenly I would love to see yet another apocalypse film, but this time centered around strange matter and actually entertaining.
_I wish there was a way to inject Kurzgesagt videos into my veins_ *I'm addicted*
The Exoplanets Channel I think that's a little extreme, I mean I just crush them up a little and snort them you know
Whats wrong with fermentation and then ingesting the videos as a pint?
Just pop his videos like American's pops opiates
You can.
1. Separate each of their videos into long compilations of bitmap images (which is what a video is, a huge compilation of pictures).
2. Convert the bitmaps into binary. Use C programming language to read in each bitmap and convert from ASCII to binary.
3. Engrave a microscopic chunk of quartz with the binary using an electron microscope.
4. Put the piece of quartz into saline solution and inject.
You done him wrong..

5:28 I just find the Moon's facial expression really cute
I have a few questions (for anyone who sees this and can answer)
Neutron Stars -
1. Is Nuclear Pasta stable enough that if removed from it environment, it will not explode, combust, disintegrate, evaporate, etc?
2. If I had a teaspoon of Nuclear Pasts, would it have enough gravity to cause damage surrounding or Earth?
3. Is Nuclear Pasta made of Iron and/or Nickle and if so, can it rust?
Strange Matter -
1. What state of matter is Strange matter? (I assume liquid)
2. Can Strange Matter be a solid?
3. Would there be any way to contain Strange Matter if it is "contagious"?
Who will win?
