    There has to be life out there. Billions of stars in billions of galaxies. Has to be a another habitable world like Earth. Guess the search continues. Or else, the Fermi Paradox is true.

      Well yes, it has to be out there, but when we make it that broad, it could be the nearest being 3 galaxies over, in which case we would never meet. From everything I see, it seems if there is life at most there are probably somewhere between 3-10 habitable planets in the entire galaxy as most places in the galaxy are totally destructive for sustainability and others are to sparse in heavy elements. We actually have one of the rarest types of stars, we happen to be in one of the less active areas of the galaxy yet occasionally pass through the spirals for extra heavy elements, and we needed a metal rich star in the first place.
      So with everything we know, we can rule out life in the center of the galaxy, in star clusters, and any stars of low metallicity. With that we still have a decent amount of the galaxy left though still a large portion of the galaxy are in star clusters which are far too chaotic to be stable. They also need to be in fairly spacious areas as to be far away from super novas, gamma ray bursts from neutron stars, neutron star pairs, and white dwarves. But most importantly, they can't be the stars outside the galaxy or at the very edge as we do still need some heavy elements for life (phosphorus is needed in all life and is one of the more rare elements in the universe).
      A lot of people also get caught up in these claims of "life not as we know it" though the elements are identical across the universe so we can kinda assume life must be as we know it as there are only so many strange ways elements can combine and for a majority we are made of the most common elements in the universe. Only exception being phosphorus which is the backbone for DNA. However, considering phosphorus is inherently rare even on Earth, we can tell there probably isn't a more suitable replacement.

  • @30gaming83
    @30gaming83 Před rokem +58

    One interesting thing about the Trappist system (as far as I understand it) is the potential impact of how close the planets' orbits around their star are too each other. Because of this, they likely play on each other's rotations, which may not only produce tides, but also cause them to *not* always be tidally locked, both of which could increase their chances of being habitable.

      I'm not sure that would be the case. The Galilean moons all orbit relatively close to Jupiter and each other and are all tidally locked to Jupiter. Io, Europa, and Ganymede are in orbital resonance with one another, though, so these planets may also be, too.

      @mackrethreinhold5253 Před 3 lety +30

      @@EvilParagon4 I am not sure which comment you are referring to, but this sounds like fun little rabbit hole to explore! If we want to classify our own solar system according to exoplanet naming conventions, it would likely be Sol b, Sol c, Sol g, Sol d, Sol e, Sol f, Sol h, Sol i. Here is my justification for this naming scheme: Planets are named with *Star name* and then a lower case letter. Upper case letters are reserved for stars, if the system has multiple. Planet naming always starts with "b", because "a" is assumed to be the star they orbit. The term "planet" comes from the Greek "wanderer", meaning Earth was not recognized as a planet until recent times. Mercury to Saturn where all known since antiquity, so I guess they were all discovered together In that case, their names would likely follow their order from the sun (the sun's name being "Sol"). In that case, Earth was "discovered" after that, followed up by Uranus and Neptune.

    • @marshallbradshaw3817
      @marshallbradshaw3817 Před 3 lety +10

      @山モム丂モレ Letter names are assigned based on their order of discovery. Earth is probably the only planet that was or will ever be discovered BEFORE its star (especially if you don't count the Sun as being discovered until heliocentrism taught us what we were dealing with, but inarguably the first human knew that they stood on something before they knew that something shone down on them). Thus Sol 1-A. ...Or maybe even Terra 1-A, since the name being the star in all other circumstances could just as well mean that the name should be whatever was discovered first, and thus the star in all cases other than ours.

      The only reason companies NEED to grow in our current society is because most of them take LOANS and need to pay INTEREST, thus creating DEBT which has to be paid BACK out of fucking THIN AIR.
      Imagine a country which a set amount of money distributed evenly between its inhabitants. They'll begin to form services and exploit resources to sell stuff, everybody would have to do that to gain money. If there is someone greedy making tons of money because he can, well, he'll be rich and that's it. There is no stock market, no banks. No way to make rich into SUPER RICH without doing anything by exploitation of the poor. That in turn would mean his business, since he is the richest one, is the one most people are ready to give money to. Sprinkle in a bit of taxation to cover sick or unable people as well as pensioneers, boom, it's great.

      But I see what you mean. If I'm no wrong, I believe our Sun also looks white from space. I think this debate on a star being red or yellow doesn't consider literal eyeball observation from close, but the peak wavelenghts the star emits. Because if you consider all wavelenghts of light emitted it will end up aggregating into something close to white light to the unaided eye.

    27:30 yes! It's better for me to split a long video in 2. Really enjoyed it. Especially loved the visuals and detail for each planet. I can now easily imagine how each habitable planet is unique and similar to each other. Tidally locked, position in habitable zone, color and size of star, terrestrial vs marine and mixed. Also density and composition (so water isn't uncommon?). Plus how a (not too) large planet is beneficial; with a molten core providing a magnetic shield, plate tectonics and volcanic outgassing contributing to the atmosphere.
    Part 2 could be great, but now that you've already covered the best (trappist and teagarden), is there more interesting content?

    • @jasonreed7522

      If you disregard the habitable requirement/ideal then there are some very strange exoplanets out there.
      For instance "Hot Jupiters" which are gas giants orbiting far closer than Mercury does. Or i believe there is an exoplanet that is basically a giant diamond because it was originally a star but a different star ripped away its atmosphere leaving just the giant jewel. (Note that it is covered in dust and junk so it is not a shiny diamond but looks more like any other rock).
      That very short list also leaves off so many theoretical planets like rouge planets (planets without a host star), or interesting hosts like neutron stars or black holes, even if such an object would be short lived or highly improbable.

      Planet people ,
      One hidden possibility her is that the cores of red-dwarf planets may be smaller than if they were yellow-dwarf planets .
      If true , this could be due to differential- stripping of magnetic/paramagnetic materials from the protostellar-disks .
      The above would greatly reduce the amount of heat put into these planets interiors , but this would typically be counter-balanced by tidal-heating . The effect of this difference upon convective -cells and plate-tectonics is unknown .
      The above , along with slow planetary-rotation , is likely to greatly reduce or eliminate any planetary magnetic-field . The compensatory effects might be a strong induced magnetic-field , and a very dense ionosphere .
      The above two effects could act together to mitigate the atmospheric-stripping effect of the host red-dwarf star . This could be considered the exoplanet equivalent of the thermal Leidenfrost Effect .
      The implication of the above is that even extreme solar-wind pressure and events , do not necessarily result in the removal of a red-dwarf exoplanet's atmosphere .
      Planets such as Trappist-1d have a very good chance of possessing significant atmospheres , possibly containing large amounts of "fossil" oxygen , liberated from water-vapor by photolysis .

That's not outside the bounds of physics, just our current technical capability. We could have that kind of technology in the next couple centuries.
