    • @ThomasRintoul
      @ThomasRintoul 12 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Truth be told, very few will actually overlap. There are so many objects and so many possible observation parameters that the odds of an exact overlap are near impossible. Even if you want the same object. You might want different instruments, or different filters on those instruments. Or maybe one group needs 30 mins at the best time, but another needs 2 hours all at a time of less perfect but consistent conditions (space weather is a thing as is contamination from e.g. planets, the moon, etc.)

  • @timothy705
    @timothy705 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I’m maybe being a little too anthropocentric but given how common they are. If red dwarfs were good candidates for advanced biospheres we should probably have found ourselves around one. And even orange dwarfs are both more hospitable and more common & long lived than yellow dwarfs like Sol. But we don’t find ourselves orbiting one of those either. My guess is planets analogous to earth around orange dwarfs would get snowballed by the first carbon sequestering life much like earth did. But would remain that way indefinitely since the orange dwarfs wouldn’t have the increasing luminosity needed to pull them out of the ice age. Red dwarf planets likely have the same problem if they don’t just get completely sterilized by ionizing radiation, in addition to the instability of red dwarfs, the tidal locking of the planets would cause them to have little to no magnetosphere.

    • @chitster
      @chitster 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @ThomasRintoul fair enough but for the SMC to be an analogue it would need to be inhabited by purely first generation stars, it would then be a surprise to find planets. As it has 3rd and up to 6th generation stars it having planets is hardly surprising. Most of the heavy elements were stripped by it's travel through the milky way the last time through but the fact that some planets survived the interaction is expected and most planets would survive, only a few would be slung out. But as there are no first generation stars in the SMC, it's not surprising and expected

    Black holes are based on a mathematical misconception. Einstein wrote in 1939 - "The essential result of this investigation is a clear understanding as to why the Schwarzchild singularities (he was the first to raise the issue of General Relativity predicting singularities) do not exist in physical reality. Although the theory given here treats only clusters (star); whose particles move along circular paths it does seem to be subject to reasonable doubt that more general cases will have analogous results. The Schwarzchild singularities do not appear for the reason that matter cannot be concentrated arbitrarily. And this is due to the fact that otherwise the constituting particles would reach the velocity of light." He was referring to dilation. It's the phenomenon our high school teachers were talking about when they said "mass becomes infinite at the speed of light". This does not mean mass increases, it means mass becomes spread throughout spacetime relative to an outside observer. Time dilation is just one aspect of dilation. Even mass that exists at 75% light speed is partially dilated. It occurs wherever there is an astronomical quantity of mass, this includes the centers of high mass stars and the majority of galaxy centers. Dilation is occurring in our own galactic center. This means that there is no valid XYZ coordinate we can attribute to it, you can't point your finger at something that is smeared through spacetime. In other words that mass is all around us. It's the "missing mass" needed to explain galaxy rotation curves. It doesn't occur in galaxies with low mass centers because they do not have enough mass to achieve relativistic velocities. It has recently been confirmed in 6 ultra diffuse galaxies including NGC 1052-DF2 and DF4 to have normal rotation rates, in other words they have no dark matter/dilated mass.

      It depends on the galaxies. If you mean because of the universe expanding, then that's more true the further away you look. Andromeda is easily close enough for gravity to overcome the little bit of expansion that would be pushing it away.

      While I agree that a lot of people, myself included, think it was collosal a dick move, there are those, including JBB herself, who have said that the Nobel committee should only award the prize to PhD/Grad students in exceptional circumstances.

    She didn't discover pulsars there was a whole team of people who collected the data she was analyzing when she found the repetitive signal from the pulsar. That's why the head of the team won the prize.

    • @ThomasRintoul
      @ThomasRintoul 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      She was the one who identified the signal - her discovery. The Nobel awarded for the Cosmic Microwave Background detection went to the astronomers who found it by accident. Regardless of experience, Jocelyn Bell Burnell identified the signal and discovered the first pulsar. It wasn't Antony Hewish reading through metres of radio telescope readouts

      AHAhahahaha!! That's a great fairy story, but if it were real in ANY way, there would be EVIDENCE that this God exists. You know, this God who claims to want to have a relationship with us? And when I say "evidence," I'm talking about independently verifiable, measurable, repeatable, falsifiable evidence. The same way that if someone said "I have evidence for Bigfoot," or "... evidence for Santa Claus being real!" in either such case, we would ALSO expect them to have the same kind of evidence as listed above. it's no different if someone said that they have evidence that Odin is really the Allfather of the Gods and that he really exists - We'd expect the same kind of evidence from them! Lastly, if we were unique, we'd be made from unique materials. We're not. We're made from the most common elements in the freakin' universe!!! We are as common as muck!! If we're supposed to be unique and have dominion over all the animals, then why did "God" make us out of meat? Why are we made from food? If God were real and if we were created by a God, shouldn't we have been made from unique matter that's at least exceedingly rare in the universe, if not, unique and shouldn't we be made from NON-edible matter, that ISN'T a source of food to animals and insects, etc? Honestly, mate, it doesn't sound like we're unique at all. It sounds like this whole "unique" nonsense was made up by a bunch of ignorant, primitive savages, who had no knowledge of physics and/ or chemistry, so they couldn't understand reality. You can play pretend, if you like, but be aware: Even if the Bible is true, the New Testament is 100% NOT true. Jesus is the False Prophet that the Old Testament prophesies and he tries to steal people's faith by making False Promises, telling people that they'll get everything they've ever wanted. But not until AFTER they die! All of Jesus' promises are bullshit, according to the Old Testament. Read it to find out for yourself! The afterlife is all bullshit, heaven is bullshit, hell is bullshit... But you'd rather believe the sweet, sweet lies, than accept what's written in black-and-white, in the bible, wouldn't you? Keep holding on to those false promises, mate! I'm sure they'll benefit you somehow, even if it is only to give you a false sense of security...
