The Hubble has changed everything about our understanding of the Universe. At a cost of less than $1 per light year, I think the world of science got a real bargain.
I’m absolutely in love with the vastness of space. I wish we had technology to explore the universe. It truly makes me sad that I was born too late for discovery and too early for exploration.
Yes, but the human condition and our limited, tiny life span makes all of this a mean joke on us. If we don't have the technology to travel to the edge of the universe & back, what's the point? (Even if we could, what's the point?) It's like living on Earth now. I don't have the means to visit every corner of this planet so why bother wasting time marveling over it? Even if I was rich enough to travel the entire world, I would still think the cycle of life & death is stupid. Just think how exciting it was for Copernicus to discover the Earth wasn't the center of the universe/galaxy. Fast forward a few decades. He dies and that's all there is to his life. We're all going to be like that with the exception 99.99999999% of us won't die famous like Copernicus. I'm really not a sad, miserable human being. I just state the absurd meaning of the human condition. Anyways, be happy if you can and enjoy life while you can.
@@supersquirrel7546 its alright. We all will leave a foot print behind. Maybe that footprint is small, but we all share the same atoms that the universe owns and one day when we die, we will give those atoms away for something else. Just like how we exist from the same stuff that once made up the dust before our solar system, its actually quite a nice thought to think about.
This might sound weird, but sometimes I like to look out my window and ask the sky if it can see me. When I look at the stars, I remember how there's a few galaxies out there too, visible to the eye. I like to find the Andromeda Galaxy and imagine life somewhere on a planet within it. I like to think that there is someone out there, similar to us, looking back at me, even if they don't know it. Life is out there, for sure. Space is way too big to have just us. It gives me comfort knowing we're not entirely alone, and it makes me think that there's people just like us somewhere out there. People who are better.
I'll sit and ask the universe with you and look at the stars, even if it's on the other side of the world, you're not alone, I'll wave at the moon with you on lonely nights
They have discovered nothing because there is no ‘edge’ to infinite space.. People have a very poor understanding of what the word 'infinite' actually means.. This is not any kind of 'fault', but just that we have evolved within the confines of what appears to be a finite environment, and we thus try to look at things in finite ways, also justifying those 'finite' thoughts. When I first approached the 'problem' I had the same difficulties, so it takes our minds a lot of effort to reach another perspective of understanding, but it IS achievable.. Firstly, there cannot be more than one 'instance' of infinitude, otherwise a secondary 'thing' would render them both 'finite'. So we are describing a 'oneness'.. Also, it can have no 'beginning' nor 'ending' as these would also necessitate a secondary 'thing' (or the utter nonsense of a 'nothing'!), so we are describing 'eternity' when we apply 'time' concepts. Then, we have to admit that it can only be the one thing that interconnects all other 'things', and we deduce this to be 'Space', necessarily.. All references to 'size' or 'direction' do not apply to the nature of infinitude, and thus have no relevance to our understanding of the true nature of existence. 'Measurement' has limitations.. When we point to any position in Space, we effectively create a 'beginning' to any subsequent forms of measurement, which only has relevance to the entity desiring to understand said 'measurement'.

@@suzz1776 but maybe, there is only 1 one ☝️ spark of life per Universe Bubble, when you see us, then zoom all the way out to the cosmic web of Super Galaxy Clusters all the way to what we can visibly see in our known universe, we’re tue Center.
7:32 Probably the best part about MACS J1149, one that you failed to mention, is that the whole galaxy is gravitationally lensed into three, and on the bottom image you can spot one supernova which was lensed into FOUR. As it turns out, light which is gravitationally lensed can take different amounts of time to reach an observer depending on the possible paths taken, meaning that when scientists spotted this supernova, they were able to predict when the next lensed image of it would appear, with a great deal of precision.
It’s things like this which make me love science. The fact that we can predict with a great deal of precision, when the next time we will see something which occurred well before our time is amazing.
I saw a documentary about this, it is mind blowing. The Einstein cross here have an angular size of about 4" x 5" (arcseconds). It's about the same as Uranus when it is closest to Earth.
Ah, the cosmos, you can talk about it and you can look at its beauty endlessly. It's a pity, we probably won't visit the parts that we can see with a telescope, but at least we can look at it and admire them along the way, making up a picture of the world around us, which is so good. Thank you for the video !
But we as a species spawned from the universe can now appreciate and wonder with our minds what could be out there. We have come along way in a short period of time. We also have a long ways to go.
Depends what you mean by alone. If you were on foot in the Sahara desert and the nearest person to you was 150 miles away, would you consider yourself to be alone? And if the nearest hi-tech civilisation was 1000 light years away, which is not far in terms of the size of our galaxy, would you consider we are alone? We can only guess where the nearest hi-tech civilisation is, but it is unlikely to be less than 1000 light years away and may well be further, so whether we are alone or not depends on what your definition of alone is.
Hi Alex, your productions are so well made, but your narrations are the best part, both the writing and the delivery. I'm an astronomy fan while being a complete layperson, with no training in any of the subject matter. I find your explanations easy to follow and understand compared to other physics and astronomy channels. They are also very engaging. Thank you.

You make the complex simple enough to understand, and it’s intriguing.

There is some very old photons hitting us from those early galaxies! Thank you for sharing these mind- blowing images - the sheer scale of the cosmos is unimaginable. And if we could "see" further than the edge of the universe - will there be other universes out there in the endless void, and will there also be clusters of them in an even bigger cosmos and so on!? That of course we will never know, as the observable part of ours is probably a tiny speck of what's out there.
I don't want to ruin your comment, I just want to clarify that photons can't actually be "old" nor have an age That's because they're travelling at the speed of light meaning no time passes in their frame of reference
I've often thought it interesting to be a photon. Imagine traveling at the speed of light, through the universe. All the things it would encounter, and be able to observe from its position would be beyond awestriking. Until quantum physics and general relatively came along, and popped that bubble. As it turns out, it doesn't matter whether the photon is going across the room, from the sun to the earth, or across the universe. From the photon's perspective, everything happens instantaneously. Bummer.
There is so much more beyond... More than we can fathom... It's all absolutely amazing and glorious! We're but a grain of sand in comparison. 🙏 Journey Well Brother's and Sister's 🪶🪶🪶
The sheer size of the cosmos boggles my mind. Considering its unimaginable size, the fact that we're here at all is far more interesting than the idea of there being other intelligent and sentient life out there.
@@voreincorporated3056 more on the fact that we're here. There is more to consciousness then chemical reactions. The fact that I observe learn and feel. An AI "learns" but there's nothing behind it's camera lense. I know I am because I think.

We might be small in the grand scheme of things. But we are a miracle of biological engineering, a marvel in it's own right, just as magnificent as any astral construct.
Why do all of these astronomy and astrophysics videos describe the universe as something frightening? Black holes are almost always described as "monsters lurking at the center of galaxies". And here again, the expanse of space inspires "existential dread". When I view the starry heavens, I am filled with awe, not fear. It's my home, and I feel blessed to be here.

the subject of "beyond the edge of the universe" fascinates me. what could possibly be there? is it empty space? is it a substrate that has yet to be affected by the existence of matter? is it an energy field a gravity field? is it virtually "nothing" in a sense that's almost impossible to comprehend? hard to define with language what "nothing" could possibly be.
@@RocketDCP I think it is generally agreed upon that spacetime is shaped like a fourth-dimensional torus. if you travel in one direction long enough, you will loop back around to where you started.

I love everything about our magical beauty of this universe we're living In its so many we will no about it and it's plenty that we will never get to know thanks so much of giving us an glimpse of it thanks Hubble for every glimpse of what you can show 🙏
Amazing video as always. I've suspected for quite some time that planets or other bodies may move from one star system to another but I never realized that 2 merging galaxies could trade star clusters like that.
It's crazy that we are most likely on the edge of a distant alien civilizations field of view and that when we look at other galaxies there may very well be others looking back.
Mind blowing. I love videos like this and they make me feel significant in that the atoms and molecules that are me are able to marvel and appreciate these wonders while realizing the most distant stars no longer exist by the time their light reaches Earth.
It is always such a great pleasure to learn the unknown greatest mystery of all called universe. Even the vast distances such as billions of lightyears Hubble let us see one can only imagine how little that scale is measuring universe. We can only hope to learn more through James Webb about more of the mystery as Universe will continue to amaze us with.
Alex! Whenever I watch your videos, the selection of music, your easy to understand and cool style. Put the viewer exactly where they ought to be, floating on a sea of metaphysical tranquillity! Thanks!
Well, that was quite interesting, but considering the thumbnail I was expecting to hear something about new discoveries at the edge of the universe instead of another list of well known stars and galaxies, that were obseved by hubble.
Same here my friend. It’s kind of depressing how so many people are taken in by click-bait and how so few even question it. Thanks for having a brain and making me feeling a bit more sane 🙌🏻
Here's something thats kinda sad about the "we cant be alone in the universe" thing... when we look at exo planets (planets similar to earth), we're looking at that planet millions of year in the past. If there can be life on it, maybe there is at the moment, but we can't see it because what we see is million years in the past. If there are intelligent life on one of these planets, maybe they're looking at earth thinking "oh here's an exo planet where life can be !", but they see earth millions of years in the past. So what I am thinking is; we might never know ot at least not for a while and maybe right now at this moment they are there on one of these exo planets, looking for otgers like we are !
It's sad because we likely never will cross that distance. I'm sure there is other life out there intelligent life even but space is just too vast and constantly expanding.
@@Silmerano I agree ! Unless we discover how to just get from point A to point B in the universe without having to just "fly" at light speed or something.

I want to know what is the universe expanding into? How much space is there? Is it infinite? And does the expanding universe keep occupying this emptiness?
The universe could have always been infinite, or it could be some kind of shape that curves back on itself somehow. Either way, don't think of the universe as being surrounded by emptiness since that doesn't make any sense. Space expanded, and matter and energy was created inside it, so all of space would contain matter and energy.
@@tonywells6990 So thats my question. How is space expanding? Into what? Example, if I inflate a balloon inside a classroom, then the balloon is the universe and its expanding in the classroom which is the space. So if universe (which I presume to be all matter from big bang) is the balloon, then is the classroom the space? And how big is it?
@@JohnRaw85 yes, it is expanding, but the universe is space-time. In your example everything that exists is the surface of the balloon. The balloon surface contains all matter space and time.

@@andrebartels1690 A scientific fact is an observation that has been repeatedly confirmed and for all practical purposes is accepted as “true.” We don't know if we're alone or not and so nothing has been confirmed to say if it is true or not. Therefore, it is not, by defnition, a scientific fact. It is merely a statement of interest.
I have a question: How do we know that some of those dots very far away are stars, and not galaxies? In the images even galaxies are not that much bigger dots than those stars, even tho they contain millions or billions of stars.
Analysing the spectrum of the light, stars have pretty distinct spectra while the spectrum of a galaxy looks continuous because the light of all the stars is "mixed together" But there are also other methods, I think you can find a lot of information about it on the internet
Awesome vid! Cavemen used rocks to smash the heads of other cavemen to take their food and women. My point is, we are still (in many other ways) act like cavemen. With all this technology, science, and knowledge we really still haven't figured out how to be civil "brainy apes" let alone find anyone/anything else "way out there" that is going to save us from ourselves.

Firstly, there cannot be more than one 'instance' of infinitude, otherwise a secondary 'thing' would render them both 'finite'. So we are describing a 'oneness'.. Also, it can have no 'beginning' nor 'ending' as these would also necessitate a secondary 'thing' (or the utter nonsense of a 'nothing'!), so we are describing 'eternity' when we apply 'time' concepts. Then, we have to admit that it can only be the one thing that interconnects all other 'things', and we deduce this to be 'Space', necessarily..
All references to 'size' or 'direction' do not apply to the nature of infinitude, and thus have no relevance to our understanding of the true nature of existence. 'Measurement' has limitations.. When we point to any position in Space, we effectively create a 'beginning' to any subsequent forms of measurement, which only has relevance to the entity desiring to understand said 'measurement'. This does not make it a feature of the nature of reality, only a desire from a Human perspective.

7:32 Probably the best part about MACS J1149, one that you failed to mention, is that the whole galaxy is gravitationally lensed into three, and on the bottom image you can spot one supernova which was lensed into FOUR. As it turns out, light which is gravitationally lensed can take different amounts of time to reach an observer depending on the possible paths taken, meaning that when scientists spotted this supernova, they were able to predict when the next lensed image of it would appear, with a great deal of precision.
neat!
It’s things like this which make me love science. The fact that we can predict with a great deal of precision, when the next time we will see something which occurred well before our time is amazing.
This allowed them to actually get increased accuracy by being ready for the event with all pertinent detectors pre aimed and waiting.
Thanks for the additional insight!!
I saw a documentary about this, it is mind blowing. The Einstein cross here have an angular size of about 4" x 5" (arcseconds). It's about the same as Uranus when it is closest to Earth.
All these years later, Hubble continues to amaze us with the objects it can see! We must keep this telescope going as long as we can!
like carl sagan said astronomy is a humble and character building experience, to think of the distances and immensity of the universe is humbling.
Ah, the cosmos, you can talk about it and you can look at its beauty endlessly. It's a pity, we probably won't visit the parts that we can see with a telescope, but at least we can look at it and admire them along the way, making up a picture of the world around us, which is so good. Thank you for the video !
But we as a species spawned from the universe can now appreciate and wonder with our minds what could be out there. We have come along way in a short period of time. We also have a long ways to go.
Thanks Hubble for all your work.

Depends what you mean by alone. If you were on foot in the Sahara desert and the nearest person to you was 150 miles away, would you consider yourself to be alone? And if the nearest hi-tech civilisation was 1000 light years away, which is not far in terms of the size of our galaxy, would you consider we are alone? We can only guess where the nearest hi-tech civilisation is, but it is unlikely to be less than 1000 light years away and may well be further, so whether we are alone or not depends on what your definition of alone is.

There is some very old photons hitting us from those early galaxies! Thank you for sharing these mind- blowing images - the sheer scale of the cosmos is unimaginable.

And yet people say there is no intelligent life out there... The only non intelligent life are the ones who say that exact same thing.

I've often thought it interesting to be a photon. Imagine traveling at the speed of light, through the universe.
All the things it would encounter, and be able to observe from its position would be beyond awestriking.
Until quantum physics and general relatively came along, and popped that bubble.
As it turns out, it doesn't matter whether the photon is going across the room, from the sun to the earth, or across the universe. From the photon's perspective, everything happens instantaneously.
Bummer.
Beautiful thinking.
You had me in awe in the first half then quantum physics comes in like nah, you thought. Lol
Or you can think of the photon as experiencing the whole universe all at once. That is just infinitely more intense than you would think!
It is inanimate and cannot perceive anything. If you were a photon you would experience or think of nothing.
Well Either Way You’ll Be Able To Do This One Day As Energy Never Dies So Eventually We All Join The Universe.

We might be small in the grand scheme of things. But we are a miracle of biological engineering, a marvel in it's own right, just as magnificent as any astral construct.
Why do all of these astronomy and astrophysics videos describe the universe as something frightening? Black holes are almost always described as "monsters lurking at the center of galaxies". And here again, the expanse of space inspires "existential dread". When I view the starry heavens, I am filled with awe, not fear. It's my home, and I feel blessed to be here.

It's crazy that we are most likely on the edge of a distant alien civilizations field of view and that when we look at other galaxies there may very well be others looking back.
The fact that we are able to see and learn from all of this.. and we still havent explored at least 20% of our oceans..............

It is always such a great pleasure to learn the unknown greatest mystery of all called universe. Even the vast distances such as billions of lightyears Hubble let us see one can only imagine how little that scale is measuring universe. We can only hope to learn more through James Webb about more of the mystery as Universe will continue to amaze us with.

Well, that was quite interesting, but considering the thumbnail I was expecting to hear something about new discoveries at the edge of the universe instead of another list of well known stars and galaxies, that were obseved by hubble.
Same here my friend. It’s kind of depressing how so many people are taken in by click-bait and how so few even question it. Thanks for having a brain and making me feeling a bit more sane 🙌🏻
Great journey through space and time. Thanks a lot for showing us this beautiful video.
Here's something thats kinda sad about the "we cant be alone in the universe" thing... when we look at exo planets (planets similar to earth), we're looking at that planet millions of year in the past. If there can be life on it, maybe there is at the moment, but we can't see it because what we see is million years in the past. If there are intelligent life on one of these planets, maybe they're looking at earth thinking "oh here's an exo planet where life can be !", but they see earth millions of years in the past. So what I am thinking is; we might never know ot at least not for a while and maybe right now at this moment they are there on one of these exo planets, looking for otgers like we are !
It's sad because we likely never will cross that distance. I'm sure there is other life out there intelligent life even but space is just too vast and constantly expanding.
@@Silmerano I agree ! Unless we discover how to just get from point A to point B in the universe without having to just "fly" at light speed or something. Ive heard someone saying that if advanced aliens exists thats traveling to ither planets, they might not be using just a spaceship thats goes fast, but a different technology
@@sjkkkkklammmmnnnnjnij that's nothing but science fiction for now at least. We don't have any kind of "space magic" that let's us ignore the laws of physics. Where we are now even approached anything close to light speed isn't happening.

I want to know what is the universe expanding into? How much space is there? Is it infinite? And does the expanding universe keep occupying this emptiness?
The universe could have always been infinite, or it could be some kind of shape that curves back on itself somehow. Either way, don't think of the universe as being surrounded by emptiness since that doesn't make any sense. Space expanded, and matter and energy was created inside it, so all of space would contain matter and energy.
It isn't expanding into anything
@@tonywells6990 So thats my question. How is space expanding? Into what? Example, if I inflate a balloon inside a classroom, then the balloon is the universe and its expanding in the classroom which is the space.

@@JohnRaw85 yes, it is expanding, but the universe is space-time. In your example everything that exists is the surface of the balloon. The balloon surface contains all matter space and time.
Turns out, there this really great restaurant there. Who knew!?!
Something I think is amazing is light from stars on the edge of the universe hit not only us, but everywhere.
Space never terrified me, but awes me beyond believe again and again! :)
Thanks for being the best at what you do.
The most mindblowing scientific fact of all, to me, is: Either we're alone in this giant universe, or we're not. Both options are incredible to me.
Edit: translation error.
Technically not a 'scientific fact'... more of a speculation of wonder.
You stole that quote
@@Релёкс84 you're right, I was inspired by someone else. But I made this a part of my image of the world, so I can say that this scientific fact really blows my mind. Because I'm talking about my mind. Otherwise I wouldn't be allowed to talk about anything at all, because I didn't invent anything at all.
@@andrebartels1690 A scientific fact is an observation that has been repeatedly confirmed and for all practical purposes is accepted as “true.” We don't know if we're alone or not and so nothing has been confirmed to say if it is true or not. Therefore, it is not, by defnition, a scientific fact.
It is merely a statement of interest.
I have a question: How do we know that some of those dots very far away are stars, and not galaxies?
In the images even galaxies are not that much bigger dots than those stars, even tho they contain millions or billions of stars.
Analysing the spectrum of the light, stars have pretty distinct spectra while the spectrum of a galaxy looks continuous because the light of all the stars is "mixed together"
But there are also other methods, I think you can find a lot of information about it on the internet
@@Astromath Ah ok, thanks :)
We would expect that those 'dots' are all galaxies since individual stars are not bright enough to be seen.
@@tonywells6990 holy fuck so every dot I'm seeing is a galaxy?
@@4Noirr_ yes with solar systems and planets inside it. Yep
Absolutely beautiful! Be careful though. If we look too far, we might disturb Azathoth… 😁 I’ll see myself out.
James Webb through infrared will truly show us more
Watching that zoom is just incredible
My soul comes from better worlds and I have an incurable homesickness of the stars✨💫
A million subscribers!! Wow man. It’s been awesome to see your channel grow over the years. Congrats.
Awesome vid! Cavemen used rocks to smash the heads of other cavemen to take their food and women. My point is, we are still (in many other ways) act like cavemen. With all this technology, science, and knowledge we really still haven't figured out how to be civil "brainy apes" let alone find anyone/anything else "way out there" that is going to save us from ourselves.

They have discovered nothing because there is no ‘edge’ to infinite space..
People have a very poor understanding of what the word 'infinite' actually means.. This is not any kind of 'fault', but just that we have evolved within the confines of what appears to be a finite environment, and we thus try to look at things in finite ways, also justifying those 'finite' thoughts. When I first approached the 'problem' I had the same difficulties, so it takes our minds a lot of effort to reach another perspective of understanding, but it IS achievable..
Firstly, there cannot be more than one 'instance' of infinitude, otherwise a secondary 'thing' would render them both 'finite'. So we are describing a 'oneness'.. Also, it can have no 'beginning' nor 'ending' as these would also necessitate a secondary 'thing' (or the utter nonsense of a 'nothing'!), so we are describing 'eternity' when we apply 'time' concepts. Then, we have to admit that it can only be the one thing that interconnects all other 'things', and we deduce this to be 'Space', necessarily..
All references to 'size' or 'direction' do not apply to the nature of infinitude, and thus have no relevance to our understanding of the true nature of existence. 'Measurement' has limitations.. When we point to any position in Space, we effectively create a 'beginning' to any subsequent forms of measurement, which only has relevance to the entity desiring to understand said 'measurement'. This does not make it a feature of the nature of reality, only a desire from a Human perspective.
