The Immense Size of Our Universe Visualized with Space Engine
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 พ.ย. 2024
- UPDATE: the diameter of our observable universe is estimated to be about 93 billion light-years, NOT 28 billion light-years like the video text states. so our observable universe is 2.9 times larger in diameter than what's visible in the video.
Space Engine travel speed is the fastest possible, without missing closer stars and galaxies!
Traveling to the Edge of the Observable Universe
using Space Engine to show the immense amount
of planets, stars and galaxies.

And I'm worried about a job interview....lol i like these videos, makes me feel insignificant.
Show this to Donald Trump. However, he may turn it around and claim Trump votes were cast for him in the Cosmos, but never counted.
i hate job interviews 😔
@@kevinpyne5808 stfu what trump got to do with it you brainwashed liberal
@@kevinpyne5808 I fucking hate it when people like you bring up politics out of nowhere.
I hope your job interview went well!
Imagine. A TH-camr Anton Petrov can navigate all the way back to the Earth from Milky Way's border without using tools to view names of clusters, stars or other objects. He has memorized the relative location of Earth in the Milky Way and uses memory to pinpoint known objects and travels through them back to our own system. He has made a video about this too. Pretty amazing.
I don't think people understand how incredible that is.
I love Anton! Been watching his channel for a few years now.
That's certainly a feat. But I bet there are a handful of people who can do that with some decent amount of practice like professional astronomers and navigators.
He is a WONDERFUL person
@@patmygroin as are you! And I! Hellooooo wonderful person
Thank you cameraman to go in universe to make the video for us...
If the camera man was moving away from Earth at the speed of light, it would take you 93 billion years to get to the end of the video. Oh wait, actually it would take longer because the universe is expanding, so you would never get to the end.
Before anyone woosh this guy I’m pretty sure he knew it was a joke
@@wilsonaquevido5356 nope.
r/whooosh
A very brave camera man. Dedicated to the job, and cuts no corners.
@@DerekMoore82 actually no, while the universe is expanding, the observable universe is relative to your observer. So it would still take 93 billion years to get to the edge of the observable universe relative to earth.
All those thousands of millions of galaxies passing by - This is huge and insane.
It is now commonly accepted by Astrophysicists that there are Billions of Billions of Galaxies.
As per the information we have from Hubble's deep field image - about 125 billion galaxies
@@Ken_James_SV so the observable universe just keeps getting bigger ? No edge ? Just more universe ? I'm ok with that
@@dik56 - Yep. me too. I am one of the growing number (several Astrophysicists inluded) that believe the Universe is infinite. Webb Telescope is about to open many eyes. Get ready for changes in the Science books!
If the sun was the size of the period of this sentence, the next nearest star would be 3 miles away.
One of those uncountable specks of light is our Sun. The very source of heat, light and energy worshipped as a god by our earliest ancestors since the dawn of our species... but how insignificant is this god compared to our galaxy... and even our galaxy itself eventually joining the uncountable insignificance... in the so-called Universe. And yet, human pride and hubris...
Conceit disappears with knowledge
Everything about this is jaw-dropping but the moment at 6:58 is the most jaw-dropping of all 😳
Everyone is talking about the tiny spec of lights, no one is talking about the endless space(nothingness) in which they are all contained
Its full of quantum fields apparently but if you took that away there would be endless space, without which you could not see anything or anyone. :)
I know all that space in-between each other
It’s typically pointless to talk about nothing….
@@gbsailing9436 never
Stanley, there are some interesting videos on intergalactic voids here on TH-cam, where they are explored up to the largest known voids that exist between groups of galaxies. The density of atoms of anything in some of those voids is frightening. Sometimes I imagine how terrifying it would be to be suddenly in the darkness of space, but you’re immortal and yet cannot travel fast…. Ugh, it’s the worst.
It's hard to fathom that it will take 500+ million years for Voyager 1 to reach a point where it can take a complete photo of our own galaxy 😳
GALAXY
I know it's been said many times, but the incredible depth and beautifully cluttered vastness of space is so stunning. Realizing the scope of it was earth shattering for my brain. I love it. I eat it up for dinner.
The US is at at last fessing up to UFO’s….save some space for dessert.
The Milky Way was more then half of the video! That really was a amazing way to show just how ginormous it is & small we are...
I watched the entire video and I still cannot comprehend it.
Looks like warp speed watched out of a rear window. I love it. 🖖
I wish there was a long duration of this. It's hypnotic.
Watch it at quarter speed.
Bruh it’s 10 minutes long lol
Awesome video, and this is only the observable universe too
There is a big chance we will never see beyond this point since the universe keeps expanding and with time we will see less and less.
@@karlokarloo4658 correct…This means that for every megaparsec -- 3.3 million light years, or 3 billion trillion kilometers -- from Earth, the universe is expanding an extra 73.3 ±2.5 kilometers per second

Amazing, mind blowing, what a beautiful our, planets, our stars, our galaxy our universe, tnq sir
Cool...the point of view of the window washer on the Enterprise....
Lightspeed is too slow. What we need is Ludicrous speed.
Lol, I don't think it was lightspeed, if it was lightspeed, the video would me 28 m̶i̶l̶l̶i̶o̶n̶ billion years long.
@@ordinary3004 90-something billion years long in fact
Sir, we’ve never gone that fast!!
By the time we leave the Milky Way, it’s moving at 100 million times the speed of light
Traveling through the universe at the speed of even light must be damn boring.
Imagine what the Voyager spacecraft must feel like. The same view for thousands of years with little change.
Space is huge AF.
Actually it wouldn't be boring at all because at the speed of light you no longer experience the passage of time at all.
@@DerekMoore82 Correct. It would take you 0 time to travel through the known universe
@@ivankaramasov that's complete bullshit. u need hours to pass even some stars and there are a lot more a lot larger objects in space and space is unbelievably more huge than those objects, meaning that most of space is completely EMPTY and dark. yes, it is said that time stops at light speed but we dont know how we as living beings, that cant even imagine a timeless condition, would experience that when passing by LIGHT YEAR distances since we are concious and still could probably feel when years would pass, it's way too simple a statement to just say "you dont experience time and it wouldnt take any time" just cuz in theory time stops at lightspeed. And @Derek Moore, who told you that you dont experience the passage of time at lightspeed and how did the person know ? lol
@@ivankaramasov it would feel like 0 seconds to you, but in reality it took you some time travel
@@bigboyfinesse8310 yes, ivankaramasov was wrong but its a misconceptions. Time will feel slower to you, the faster you get. When you travel at light speed, you no longer experience the passage of time, YOU dont experience it, but it is happening. So to go from one star to the next, it would take you a few years, but to you travelling at lightspeed, it would feel like you took no time

Of the videos I've landed on, I think this is the one that has the ideal representation.
This is the best video on TH-cam.
Just amazing!...
"Efeu" Entertainment... LOL! I love that!!!
Pardon him, he's new...
There is no way we are alone...out of all that
I wonder space travel simulations shown online either go backwards or slowly spin as they go in a curve...it seems nobody ever shows them going *forward* in a straight line.
true. would be interesting to see what it looks like
I think because we know where we're coming from but not where we're going
And here we are...focusing on which restaurant we go next, which car we should buy next, which clothes should we buy next, which educational degree we should study for, do i can buy a house in the future?, where is my next vacation....and so on.
I wouldnt be suprised if highly intelligent species visited this earth and just thought " look at those stone cave monkeys throwing poop and nuclear bombs at each other.....naaah lets skip it and on to the next.
This is beyond scary to think this is where we are and this is only a small portion of multiple universes and the creator doesn't even reside in any of them, this takes my breath away.
True
I'm definitely getting some No Man's Sky vibes from this video.
Nah mate more like megaton rain fall to be more appropriate for this considering no man sky only focus inside one galaxy interstellar space which you can’t leave megaton rain fall however goes all out out into the cosmic space I have to say in-terms of size megaton has got no man sky ultimately beat there no compression there
but in gameplay no man sky mostly definitely wins
I would love to see another space game to cosmic travel with a real time galaxy’s hub one day because of this megaton rain fall really is one of a kind in that department
@@thatjrpganimefanplayerjusi8003 id love that too

@@tonybuk70 we live in a galaxy with billions of stars and millions of earth like planets, not to mention there are trillions of galaxies in the observable universe. So I think the probability is accurate
@@chandipandi Nothing funny about trillions of people dying. By default, your conclusion as a result in that analogy must make you very depressed...
Possibly, although if the origin of life on Earth truly is a fluke then perhaps you could billions of universes of this scale and time and still never even have a chance of it happening again. I don’t happen to think that biogenesis is THAT hard and rare, but it must not be that easy, or great filter(s) must abound to explain the lack of any obvious galactic colonisation. I’d love to have humanity solve the Fermi Paradox in my lifetime…. But at least I’m lucky enough to live at a time when technology can help us get answers to cosmological mysteries, rather than just pure thought.
When you zoom out on the Elite Dangerous map
The universe: okay, so those tiny creatures called humans see everything in me and know better than me about what's outside me? Shit........
Now imagine the multiverse
Great video, yet a little misleading. From the video it looks like the universe is full of stars and galaxies. In fact, the universe is 99% empty space. Showing that is underwhelming in a video, I know. But it would be more accurate.
fair point. the space between stars (and galaxies) is crazy vast and is not really visible on this video
He is travelling at an unfathomable speed, SpaceEngine does show the crazy vastness of the universe.
i remember playing with this a couple years ago - go outside of the milky way so you are looking at it as one big spiral galaxy, then try to find our solar system - that and finding the black hole in center of our galaxy (starting from earth) without advancing time variable to show stars moving fast
Nice
We are literally as useless as fleas, compared to the size of our Universe and yet, we continue to fight each other over things that have no real meaning or significance.

The US is at at last fessing up to UFO’s. The big reveal has started. The occupants of these craft (if there is any) could well know the secrets of the universe.
@@MultiBikerboy1 dude there is NOT A SINGLE evidence of alien life as of yet. our radio signals cant even get NEARLY past our milky way, how would we be able to confirm any kind of universe secret from some uncertain UFO sightings lol.
@@bigboyfinesse8310 ‘uncertain UFO sightings’ good point…the images so far released have been grainy and anomalous. Also the ‘Phil Larson declaration’ issued out bu the Obama/Biden administration in 2011 hasn’t been overturned by Joe yet. But stick around it could get more interesting. 👍🏻

great video, earth is less than nothing
Objectively false. In fact, the mass of the observable universe relates to the mass of the Earth as the mass of the Earth relates to 238 milligrams. That's like a 6.5 mm pebble, or the amount of caffeine in an extra large cup of coffee.
@@karlbarks2219 wow, that's actually a lot for universe standards. I would have thought that the earth was less to the universe than an atom was to it, so the fact that not only is it more, but is an easily quantifiable coversion, means we're not so insignificant after all.
John TH-camr I wouldn’t exactly call it easily quantifiable. I was going to see how many times more massive the universe was compared to the earth - so I’d have a big number to throw at you - but my calculator topped out not halfway before I was done putting in the mass of the earth to divide by the weight of the pebble.
@@karlbarks2219 I made my own calculations, and earth is 1 e +31 times the volume of the universe. And so in comparison if the earth was the size of the universe is will not be 239 miligrams, but only 0.000000001 cubic meter
@@mistergarabaldi4845 .
The size of the universe is difficult to wrap one's mind around. So much bigger than what humans deal with on a daily basis.

This causes an optical illusion. After I watched this for a while then looked at a static screen, the static screen seemed seemed to be expanding.
Anyone else notice that?

No matter if you zoom out into the universe or zoom down into an atom you still find the same thing , spherical bodies orbiting a center of gravity.
@Mdisk64 in this universe, every universe has its own law
u think atoms are spherical bodies?
No, that's utterly incorrect. Atoms are not "spherical bodies", it's just how they are presented in elementary school literature. Gravity is definetely not the dominant force on those scales and electrons don't really orbit the nucleus as an astronomical body might, it's just a methapor for energy levels.
just enjoy the fact that we are unique for now 🤖
for now....

This video made me feel something that i never felt before... is it Sad? No. Is it because we are significally tiny? No. Is it because i been through alot of things in life yet its nothing compare to our universe? No.
There's no way this is actual footage right?
thanks to the area 51 raid it is! /s

Great video. As it's using space engine, are each of these streaks actual plotted stars (and then galaxies)? Also, if you watch this for a few minutes and then pause it, everything drifts back again but nothing moves.
i believe the stars nearby are plottet, and the rest is generated using a model as accurate as possible. afaik space engine is developed by a single person so there must be limits to it's accuracy.
Lots of known stars, galaxies and objects are mapped, but most of it is procedurally generated.
If you an truly comprehend the immensity of the universe, then you probably can't truly comprehend the immensity of the universe.
Reminds me of No Mans Sky =)
More like megaton rain fall with the size of what this video shows would be more appropriate
Interesting … but as a big fan of Space Engine I reckon this clip doesn’t have the desired effect. For one, it needs major trimming. This clip is 90% moving away from the Milky Way, whereas that should have occupied only a minute or so, with travel from planet to star taking up maybe the minute prior to that. And travelling through open clusters would help - some of them are just packed to insane degree with so many Uber-hot blue stars, all extremely young. Finally, the final zoom out … doesn’t seem to clear to me if our POV velocity has been ramped up logarithmically from previous velocity retreating from the Milky Way and so I’m not sure if we’re ‘selling’ the innumerable galaxies.
thanks for your feedback. yeah i should have noted the traveling speeds used. In the beginning i accelerate to a speed then constant throughout our galaxy, once we left our galaxy i accelerate to a much much faster speed, something like 1'000'000x faster (just a guess), then stay at that speed until the end.
I just saw my old neighborhood go by.
If the solar system was the size of a football field, earth would be the size of a grain of salt, and the nearest star would be a couple hundred miles away
What % of the speed of light is this simulation going?
unfortunately i didn't write down the exact speeds and i don't remember.
second half of the video is about 100 Mly/s (100 000 000 light-years per second)
@@efeuEntertainment thank you very much , your work is amazing , it's like the Hubble constant visualized in real time.
dig it!
This is kinda cool, but it really does nothing to give a good idea of the scale of the Universe.
Agreed. No indicators either of how many millions or billion light years the current view is away from Earth.
@@kevinpyne5808 Yeah that too! I meant that it doesn't provide any visual proportionality as well.
And many people still believe life only exists on this planet,
thats just a screen saver
If the entire universe were the size of our galaxy I would still be impressed.
5:43 i like how theres probably an alien civilization somewhere right here.
We are definitely not alone.
If you drove a car at 100mph from Earth to the nearest star outside our solar system (Alpha Proximata), it would take 6x longer than the age of the universe to reach it. It would not even exist anymore when you reach it.
By the time your car - travelling with the speed of 100 mph - gets to the present location of Proxima Centauri, the Alpha system will have drifted far far away. So in fact you will never catch up the star with that speed.
But if we ignore this disturbing fact: 100mph is 1/387 of the speed of Voyager 1, who would need 70 000 years to reach Proxima Centauri. So a car would need approx. 27 million years to get there, which is 1/511 of the age of our universe
(13,8 billion years).
Space... Is.....Infinite

The edge of the observable universe doesn't fade to black because there are just as many stars beyond as there are here.
The fact that people still don’t think there’s other life out there, like, we’re so insignificant lmao ofc there is
Uncomprehensible

I cannot grasp the size of the universe. It is overwhelming.
I always wondered why do the stars pass by so fast when you go at light speed i mean at light speed you can circle around the Earth 7/5 times in one second and around the Sun probably takes minutes and there are stars out there like Vy Canis Majoris that would take hours to circle it but if you pass by stars at light speed it wouldn't look like they are stretching like in this clip to me this looks like way faster than the speed of light,and even if you go that fast how can you survive without colliding with a planet or a star or falling into a black hole.
that's a good observation MM creative!
the travel speed in this video is much faster than lightspeed. just our milky way galaxy has a diameter of 100'000 ly. that means even if we'd travel at 100'000 times the speed of light, it would take us one year to cross it. in the video it takes us merely 5min to escape our milky way galaxy! even faster in the second part of the video where we fly through galaxies.
and about your second thought, about colliding with another planet:
there's an interesting and detailed answer to that question here reddit.com/r/askscience/comments/2pe4oj/say_you_had_the_ability_to_fly_a_spacecraft_from/cmvvytl
in short: there's an awful lot of space between planets. you'd have to fly 15'000x trough our galaxy back and forth in a straight line to hit something.
@@MMCreativeStudio not sure i follow. why would you collide with a star at fast than light speeds?
It's just a game. Physics doesn't apply to you here.
Time slows down when you approach the speed of light. If it were possible to rach light speed, time would stop and from your perspective you'd cross the known universe in no time
Speed of light 8 minutes from the sun, 186,000 miles a second, very slow on this scale.

yes, as long as you add proper credits
