The idea of a planet that formed without a star to begin with and has always been in darkness is incredibly haunting. Sounds like a wonderful setting for a grimdark novel.
So long boys it's been fun! *Few months later* Dang it's getting really lonely out here... *Few years later* Am I leaving the galaxy?? *Few thousand years later* Yeah looks like im dipping out of the galaxy.. *Few million years later* Hard to believe that tiny dot right there used to be my home galaxy....
I was actually about to make a comment about how his presentation is melodramatic and not necessarily scientifically accurate or at the very least misleading. And most importantly, the premise in general that a rogue planet would be more "lonely" than Earth is illogical. We haven't confirmed life in the rest of our solar system, and if we do it's most likely microbial. We're already about as alone as it gets (as far as we know). Also, no, interstellar space isn't unimaginable. It's about what you'd experience anywhere in space, just a bit darker. You'd still see stars in the sky. It is a deeper vacuum, but that's not really something you'd notice without taking a measurement. What's really interesting about rogue planets is that they could harbor surface life due to their thick hydrogen atmospheres, but he glossed over this point as if it's insignificant, and instead focused entirely on emotional depictions of how lonely he imagines it'd be.
I like SEA´s style. I don´t think he is misleading in any way and I think most of us are OK with loneliness description. It´s very subjective how you feel about certain facts and yes we are alone too but SEA was saying it in a different context and it was spot on. Listening to sheer facts without a bit of subjective "melodrama" (as long as the facts themselves are not twisted) would be be far less interesting.
Scroll through the comments and see how many start with the word “imagine” That’s a great indicator that these videos are getting people thinking, which is a good thing.
Imagine just standing on this planet. The sheer loneliness. The cold. The awe. There are no words, just a sky that cannot he described in words. You may be forever isolated from humanity, but a what cost? You see something no human ever has and probably ever will see- our home, our universe. In its very prime beauty.
The only galaxy we can see with our eyes is the Andromeda galaxy which is part of our local group. If that planet would be in a void or something one wouldnt see anything.
I'd like to recommend the short story "A Pail of Air," written in the 50s, about Earth becoming a rogue planet after a passing black hole drags us into interstellar space.
Yes I recommended this story on another rogue planet video recently. I haven't read the story in decades but it was so memorable that I remember it in great detail. Also: When Worlds Collide, by Philip Wylie and Edwin Balmer. Great Golden Age sci-fi, very dated of course (written in 1933) and campy but another one that stuck in my mind. Edit: I went to gutenberg site and reread "A Pail of Air" finally. As great a short story as ever.
That happens to me, I usually think about how everything in the universe will eventually die and then there will be... nothing. Literally nothing, in all directions. Nothing.
Cmdr. Lewdiepie Unfortunately for the foreseeable future, this shitty place is all we have. For some inexplicable reason, everything we know of that has ever moved, crawled and breathed of its own design has existed here. The descendants of initial colonists might reach planets their ancestors could never hope to reach within their lifetimes and still find those worlds empty prior to their arrival. We might ultimately be alone, save for wherever humanity manages to go. It’s such a long time away I don’t think it matters to us. But it’s a hard feeling to shake all the same.
Accretion Disk Why you have to get nit picky about gases and pressure ect... Just imagine right now a dark mountainous alien planet with wind blowing, thats all!

Fundamentally, existence is the most lonely of all. No one, not a single person who has ever lived or will ever live will be able to think your thoughts, taste with your tongue, and see with your eyes. The consciousness of you is the loneliest being to ever be. At least intergalactic rogue planets have atoms to accompany them and a group to identify with. What does a person truly have?

@@pw1340 I have a 5 kilowatt generator for my house because nobody can exclusively depend on the municipal power grid in the very rural area I reside. But, I do make my own diesel for it. I do run lighting with it, as well as everything in the house sometimes. Kerosene is a class 1 diesel fuel. I guess one can stretch that thought and say I have lots of kerosene lights. My vehicle also runs on diesel and has lights and I make over half the fuel for it as well.
Imagine if one day far away into the future, we figure out some technology that defies laws of physics as we know it, allowing us to travel between galaxies in a near instant, having that ship traverse a direct line to them. And then, our first intergalactic trip.... ends because the spacecraft smashed into one of those rogue planets floating between the galaxies. Just how unlucky would that be? xD
It's a valid point. Methods of detection would be limited. It might be detectable by how the light of the background stars behave when we look at it. Once the ship is close enough, it should (in theory) be detectable by bouncing a signal off it. Of course, we have to take into account that nothing in the universe is stationary, and the distances are vast; if detected early enough, very little course correction would be necessary to miss such an object... assuming it doesn't have a smaller body in orbit around it that we failed to detect.
I believe that a Rogue Planet made it from the Milky Way to Andromeda and vice versa. Im sure moons and Rogue stars are in intergalactic space as well. Imagine a Rogue Star inbetween galaxies it has a family of 4 planets and one of them is habitable. Instead of seeing stars their seeing galaxies😎. Some organism don't need sunlight but from the chemical in the Planet's soil, or hydrothermal vents as well is full of nutrients, as long as the Planet's core remains warm. Most people are very aware of this now.

@@skycloud4802yeah you say that but I bet your attitude will change if we get knocked out of the solar system to be “independent” and “unchained” from our parent star. You’ll be all like “Nooooo!

I just want to hug them, and let them stay in our solar system. :( They never deserved it. It’s like planets are the babies, but the parent (sun) either rejected or exploded into supernova
Maybe this is where Triton came from. It collided with Uranus, knocking it sideways, then slowed down it was captured by Neptune and started its inclined retrograde orbit.
I learn so much from these! It’s always so interesting to learn about space, you’re one of the first channels that pop in my mind when I want to nerd out. And I’ve been here since 40k subs, so I can’t wait to see you get to a million. And it WILL happen.
I haven’t watched your vids in a while, and coming back to this after your last geometry dash video, I’m honestly so proud of you man. Keep up the good work! I’m really liking these scientific videos
That was wonderful, educational and somber. The cadence of your magnetic narration kept me in a state of mourning, until your dreadful gasp before revealing the mundane categorical name of the second rouge planet ever discovered, which literally caused me to laugh aloud. Thank you SEA, for this and all the inspirational presentations you have bestowed upon us. I can, and have, listen to your soothing and impressive articulations for hours at a time. You are absolutely captivating!
How the actual fuck would you hear the planet’s core move when it’s a few hundred thousand kilometers bellow you in an earth-sized planet?????? A nice image but about as plausible as me getting a life at this point.
It may seem strange but...I don't seem to hear the sun, I'm sure all the noise i hear comes from the stuff around me, I'm pretty sure that's how it would be on that planet too
Another amazing video! As others have said, your channel seems way underrated. You put together really well-written and illustrated mini-docs of so many fascinating astronomy topics. This one is mind-boggling - it's terrifying to imagine being on a rogue planet that was flung into intergalactic space. That is just insane.
SUPERB VIDEO. SUPERB SCRIPT. SUPERBLY NARRATED. The sadness of being a "Lonely Planet" is palpable, and so beautifully portrayed by the narrator. This definitely my favourite SEA video - and that's saying something as they are all superb.
The neat thing about the universe is that it's near infinite, or possible infinitum, means that there are a countless number of examples of these planers just waiting to be discovered.
Wow, I had no idea how much better you've gotten until I went back and listened to this one. I've been a fan for years and watch/listen to your videos before bed and just hadn't noticed the gradual improvements you've made. The biggest difference is your pacing! It is SO much better! Kudos to you and I hope you are still finding as much joy in making these. I really really appreciate you adding captions too as I am deaf. Thank you so much.
"I have seen the dark universe yawning, Where the black planets roll without aim; Where they roll in their horror unheeded, without knowledge or lustre or name." -- H. P. Lovecraft
Why does this channel not have more subscribers? The subject matter of their videos is always very interesting - more often than not, even deeply intriguing; The imagery presented is always breathtaking; and last but not least, the narrator has such a pleasant and calming voice. I hope they will continue to make these superb videos until the universe ends! ;)
Great writing and narration about genuinely mind expanding topics. Your videos are fantastic and I learn a lot from them, so thank you. Would you kindly do a video about Olympus Mons, the highest mountain in the solar system?
Imagine a rouge Planet with deep oceans and a really big Moon that can keep the planets Interieur warm for a really really Long Time. You would pontetionally have Life thriving in These oceans for eterneties without desterbence due to the layer of ICE above. That actually Sounds quite nice lol
How to pique the interest of the audience, seemingly on a subject matter that initially seems like a dead-end, and yet, SEA not only brings it to life, but gives us a whole new perspective of these wondering celestial bodies, and the thoughts that conjure, based on said oratory. Superb! (again).
The idea of a rogue planet having large moons that produce enough tidal heating to keep the planet warm is quite fascinating. I once tried this out in Universe Sandbox, making a rogue planet without star but with large moons orbiting so close that they produce enough tidal heating to warm up the planet to habitable temperatures. I wonder if tidal heating would work as an energy source essentially forever, or if eventually the moons would move away from the planet or collide with it and stopping the tidal heating. The idea of a rogue planet with life, possibly even with a civilisation sounds fascinating. Imagine a civilisation that has only known their dark world entering a planet like earth in a star system, seeing a bright sky with a sun for the first time, how overwhelming it must be for them. Also, I wonder if civiisations from other planets could use rogue planets as a way to travel through the galaxy by inhabiting them until they come close to another star system.

Fun fact: apparently there existed a “Fifth gas fiant” in the Solar systems, wich was similar to the “Ice Giants” (Uranus and Neptune) and got ejected during the formation of the Solar systems
Not "laying": you mean "lying". To lay is a transitive verb which must have an object: to lay something you must put something into a horizontal mposition. To lie is an intransitive verb which only has a subject: you lie by getting into (or putting yourself) into a horizontal position. Lay/ lie- two very different verbs which you must NEVER confuse again! you're welcome.
They don't know what loneliness is therefore don't feel lonely is. But since we know what loneliness is we know what to look for to feel it. For the planet it's just normal but only because it doesn't know otherwise. We do know the opposite of being lonely therefore we feel that way.
Well no shit, planets do not feel since they are not sentient. But it is a figure of speech to say that something is lonely as in isolated from all other things.
One great thing worth mentioning about intergalactic rogues and loneliness. One could argue that loneliness requires something to experience it. Could a Rogue Planet host life? Sure but not forever. But what about a Rogue Star? A star getting flung and dragging its planets out with it. Imagine something in the habitably zone here. It evolves up and casts its eyes to the night sky... and it's dark. A couple bright blurs, and many more but dimmer dots twinkling above. They investigate how far away these objects are and they are... incomprehensibly far. They can't even figure out a number with nothing local to even base it off and scale it up. They are just "far". Stars? What's a star? Their telescopes only show those tiny dots on zoom in looking like those bright blurs. When looking at the bigger blurs, they certainly notice a few bright dots between them but they can't identify them. Maybe those blurs are like fractals, made up of deeper blurs within them, all blurring together in one collective mass we call a galaxy. They wouldn't be wrong, but how could they know their own Sun wasn't anything but unique? Are they the only things living in the universe? Probably. Afterall they know their life is sustained by their sun, and they can't find any others out there. Maybe there's some theories that life could exist inside those blurs, associating the light with the warmth, but others might protest saying life can only happen where it's dark, as too much light could mean too much radiation. Since they can't comprehend distances properly, they might assume that because their sun is bright, it could be seen from anywhere like a beacon. The only non-blurry light source in the universe, and that if aliens existed, they would have to exist around their own beacon in the universe, but those other suns don't exist, there's no evidence for it. It seems like a given that for any creature to truly become space faring and immortal, they need to know space exists. You're not going to have fish at the bottom of a frozen ocean or mole people underground realising that there's more beyond their finite realm. No matter how smart they get. Maybe the fish people in an effort to go as far up as possible, with advancing mining technology and protective warming gear make their way to the surface to discover... nothing. There's no water, no ice. Any eyes they might have, either blinded by the universe above them or too out of focus to even comprehend the lights in the sky existing in the first place. Subterranean peoples will not have aspirations for the stars because they can't even see them. So what is a lonlier fate, A rogue planet lost in darkspace, with a population that will never know beyond their ocean, or a rogue solar system, with a population that can look to the stars and see nothing to indicate they are among other forms of life in the universe?
It's terrifying thinking about being flung to intergalactic space. You could potentially just travel forever, damned to an infinite journey with nothing around.
Imagine floating around in an empty void, waiting endlessly but with no sense of time, pure emptiness all around you, absolute coldness and lifelessness, and you can only just wish that you never existed at all...
I love seeing stuff like this. Space is so very interesting and planets that potentially could actually have some sort of life we just would t recognize it!!
What technologies you think we can get from a frozen rock? Also, plenty of those same resources literally everywhere else in the universe. There is nothing _special_ about those rogue planets, they are just dark and cold.

Imagine if one day far away into the future, we figure out some technology that defies laws of physics as we know it, allowing us to travel between galaxies in a near instant, having that ship traverse a direct line to them. And then, our first intergalactic trip.... ends because the spacecraft smashed into one of those rogue planets floating between the galaxies. Just how unlucky would that be? xD
please dont foreshadow thanks
Solution: negative mass shield
It's a valid point. Methods of detection would be limited. It might be detectable by how the light of the background stars behave when we look at it. Once the ship is close enough, it should (in theory) be detectable by bouncing a signal off it. Of course, we have to take into account that nothing in the universe is stationary, and the distances are vast; if detected early enough, very little course correction would be necessary to miss such an object... assuming it doesn't have a smaller body in orbit around it that we failed to detect.
They should call that spaceship the 'Flytanic'
@@Us3r739 Plausible if possible.
The feeling of loneliness in the dark is quite compelling but to speak the names of these nomad planets is more tongue-twisting
I believe that a Rogue Planet made it from the Milky Way to Andromeda and vice versa. Im sure moons and Rogue stars are in intergalactic space as well. Imagine a Rogue Star inbetween galaxies it has a family of 4 planets and one of them is habitable. Instead of seeing stars their seeing galaxies😎. Some organism don't need sunlight but from the chemical in the Planet's soil, or hydrothermal vents as well is full of nutrients, as long as the Planet's core remains warm. Most people are very aware of this now.

I never thought I could feel sad for a lonely planet in the middle of dead space
I think it's cool. I like to think of them as fiercely independent, travelling around not chained/locked to a star.
@@skycloud4802yeah you say that but I bet your attitude will change if we get knocked out of the solar system to be “independent” and “unchained” from our parent star. You’ll be all like “Nooooo!

They never deserved it.
It’s like planets are the babies, but the parent (sun) either rejected or exploded into supernova
Adding them into the solar system would probably break the entire system.
They are just rocks
I hate when my parents explode into supernovas. Smh

Maybe this is where Triton came from. It collided with Uranus, knocking it sideways, then slowed down it was captured by Neptune and started its inclined retrograde orbit.

I learn so much from these! It’s always so interesting to learn about space, you’re one of the first channels that pop in my mind when I want to nerd out. And I’ve been here since 40k subs, so I can’t wait to see you get to a million. And it WILL happen.
I haven’t watched your vids in a while, and coming back to this after your last geometry dash video, I’m honestly so proud of you man. Keep up the good work! I’m really liking these scientific videos
That was wonderful, educational and somber. The cadence of your magnetic narration kept me in a state of mourning, until your dreadful gasp before revealing the mundane categorical name of the second rouge planet ever discovered, which literally caused me to laugh aloud. Thank you SEA, for this and all the inspirational presentations you have bestowed upon us. I can, and have, listen to your soothing and impressive articulations for hours at a time. You are absolutely captivating!
*That was wonderful, educational and somber. The cadence of your magnetic narration kept me in a state of mourning...*

man, I just love this channel
I wonder if it’s so quiet that you would be able to hear your own heart beat and blood move... maybe so quiet you can hear the planet’s core move
How the actual fuck would you hear the planet’s core move when it’s a few hundred thousand kilometers bellow you in an earth-sized planet?????? A nice image but about as plausible as me getting a life at this point.
Mantle maybe, but not core, we have these conditions artifically simulated on earth to study tectonic plates.
It may seem strange but...I don't seem to hear the sun, I'm sure all the noise i hear comes from the stuff around me, I'm pretty sure that's how it would be on that planet too
@bongod is there air between the crust and center of Earth? If so, can you hear the core?
LOL, you won't be able to hear anything because there is no atmosphere. Sound needs medium to travel.

Another amazing video! As others have said, your channel seems way underrated. You put together really well-written and illustrated mini-docs of so many fascinating astronomy topics. This one is mind-boggling - it's terrifying to imagine being on a rogue planet that was flung into intergalactic space. That is just insane.
SUPERB VIDEO. SUPERB SCRIPT. SUPERBLY NARRATED.
The sadness of being a "Lonely Planet" is palpable, and so beautifully portrayed by the narrator.
This definitely my favourite SEA video - and that's saying something as they are all superb.
The neat thing about the universe is that it's near infinite, or possible infinitum, means that there are a countless number of examples of these planers just waiting to be discovered.
Thank you. I happened upon this video and found it stellar! Subbed.
Who on earth is naming these planets? These names are a complete train wreck.
Ikr lmao 😂
It's a naming scheme, every number and letter tells you about them
Inhabitants on those planets call Earth 77-GIU305MADEINCHINA7650DFR 44
Aliens think that the earth was made in China, but we all know that it was made in Japan.

Wow, I had no idea how much better you've gotten until I went back and listened to this one. I've been a fan for years and watch/listen to your videos before bed and just hadn't noticed the gradual improvements you've made. The biggest difference is your pacing! It is SO much better!

Why does this channel not have more subscribers? The subject matter of their videos is always very interesting - more often than not, even deeply intriguing; The imagery presented is always breathtaking; and last but not least, the narrator has such a pleasant and calming voice. I hope they will continue to make these superb videos until the universe ends! ;)
They need a friend. Maybe a happy little moon or a happy little space probe to keep them company
Great writing and narration about genuinely mind expanding topics. Your videos are fantastic and I learn a lot from them, so thank you. Would you kindly do a video about Olympus Mons, the highest mountain in the solar system?
Extremely interesting and very well done. Complete, clear and simple information. To the point as a science documentary should be.
Imagine a rouge Planet with deep oceans and a really big Moon that can keep the planets Interieur warm for a really really Long Time.
You would pontetionally have Life thriving in These oceans for eterneties without desterbence due to the layer of ICE above.
That actually Sounds quite nice lol
@The Heir yea
How to pique the interest of the audience, seemingly on a subject matter that initially seems like a dead-end, and yet, SEA not only brings it to life, but gives us a whole new perspective of these wondering celestial bodies, and the thoughts that conjure, based on said oratory. Superb! (again).
The idea of a rogue planet having large moons that produce enough tidal heating to keep the planet warm is quite fascinating. I once tried this out in Universe Sandbox, making a rogue planet without star but with large moons orbiting so close that they produce enough tidal heating to warm up the planet to habitable temperatures. I wonder if tidal heating would work as an energy source essentially forever, or if eventually the moons would move away from the planet or collide with it and stopping the tidal heating.
The idea of a rogue planet with life, possibly even with a civilisation sounds fascinating. Imagine a civilisation that has only known their dark world entering a planet like earth in a star system, seeing a bright sky with a sun for the first time, how overwhelming it must be for them.
Also, I wonder if civiisations from other planets could use rogue planets as a way to travel through the galaxy by inhabiting them until they come close to another star system.

Why does laying on a rogue planet, in intergalactic space, while looking out into the void sound so calming.
Maybe it's just laying there litterally chillin as a cold long dead mummified corpse that is calming. Calm like the grave...

@@a1saucin221 I miss being 14 and having such a carefree imagination...
Not "laying": you mean "lying". To lay is a transitive verb which must have an object: to lay something you must put something into a horizontal mposition. To lie is an intransitive verb which only has a subject: you lie by getting into (or putting yourself) into a horizontal position. Lay/ lie- two very different verbs which you must NEVER confuse again! you're welcome.
@@a1saucin221thanks, you must be very quirky and complex yourself
I don’t think they feel lonely, it’s us that are lonely
Ok, Jaiden Smith
Not all of us, some of us.
And the planets are lonely.
@@doornumb Woah, edgier than edgy. You're like a scalpel balanced on a razor blade
They don't know what loneliness is therefore don't feel lonely is. But since we know what loneliness is we know what to look for to feel it. For the planet it's just normal but only because it doesn't know otherwise. We do know the opposite of being lonely therefore we feel that way.
Well no shit, planets do not feel since they are not sentient. But it is a figure of speech to say that something is lonely as in isolated from all other things.
@@businessmail4929 You have some issues
One great thing worth mentioning about intergalactic rogues and loneliness.
One could argue that loneliness requires something to experience it. Could a Rogue Planet host life? Sure but not forever.
But what about a Rogue Star? A star getting flung and dragging its planets out with it.
Imagine something in the habitably zone here. It evolves up and casts its eyes to the night sky... and it's dark. A couple bright blurs, and many more but dimmer dots twinkling above.
They investigate how far away these objects are and they are... incomprehensibly far. They can't even figure out a number with nothing local to even base it off and scale it up. They are just "far".
Stars? What's a star? Their telescopes only show those tiny dots on zoom in looking like those bright blurs. When looking at the bigger blurs, they certainly notice a few bright dots between them but they can't identify them. Maybe those blurs are like fractals, made up of deeper blurs within them, all blurring together in one collective mass we call a galaxy. They wouldn't be wrong, but how could they know their own Sun wasn't anything but unique? Are they the only things living in the universe? Probably. Afterall they know their life is sustained by their sun, and they can't find any others out there. Maybe there's some theories that life could exist inside those blurs, associating the light with the warmth, but others might protest saying life can only happen where it's dark, as too much light could mean too much radiation.
Since they can't comprehend distances properly, they might assume that because their sun is bright, it could be seen from anywhere like a beacon. The only non-blurry light source in the universe, and that if aliens existed, they would have to exist around their own beacon in the universe, but those other suns don't exist, there's no evidence for it.
It seems like a given that for any creature to truly become space faring and immortal, they need to know space exists. You're not going to have fish at the bottom of a frozen ocean or mole people underground realising that there's more beyond their finite realm. No matter how smart they get. Maybe the fish people in an effort to go as far up as possible, with advancing mining technology and protective warming gear make their way to the surface to discover... nothing. There's no water, no ice. Any eyes they might have, either blinded by the universe above them or too out of focus to even comprehend the lights in the sky existing in the first place. Subterranean peoples will not have aspirations for the stars because they can't even see them.
So what is a lonlier fate,
A rogue planet lost in darkspace, with a population that will never know beyond their ocean, or a rogue solar system, with a population that can look to the stars and see nothing to indicate they are among other forms of life in the universe?
