University of Arizona Optical Sciences student here: on a tour of the mirror lab, they mentioned that to ship the giant Magellan mirrors to Chile, we mount the mirror in its special container to the outside hull of a ship.

I just thought that was interesting! Gotta love the logistics of moving heavy science around!
LOL. Yes. You don't really wanna be banging round or dropping a cargo like that. Talk about handle carefully. Jeeez. Doesn't seem to quite be sufficient.

That wobbly distortion, similar to that created by heat on a road, is corrected in real time! There would be a constant symphony of predictive correction going on.

I worked in the airport and had chats every month with some of the astronomers in the Atacama Desert. They are all great people, interesting, and they sure love our Chilean wine.
I went to the university of Arizona and took an astronomy class and the reason for why the mirrors are made underneath the football stadium is because the stadium runs on a different power grid than the rest of the city and the mirrors take a crazy amount of energy to make so they use the stadiums generator. Pretty interesting stuff and the professor I had worked on the James Webb telescope and tons of others. One of the coolest classes I’ve ever taken
It’s beautifully appropriate that when Joe thinks “Jupiter” his mind goes straight to Galileo and the Galilean moons. Even though (when editing) he probably thought “Crap, did I really do that?” This video makes me realize that the Lens was as transformative as the Wheel. And that Galileo’s influence on our view of the solar system... by showing us, that there IS one... has left an indelible mark in our psyche. Thanks Joe. (You make our world go ‘round.)
He made another mistake but most probably don't realize to this day. Italy didn't have anything to do with Galileo's trial, it was an inquisition of the Holy Office. Italy didn't annex Rome from the Papal States until 1870.

I know you were talking about mirror telescopes however have you heard about SKA (Square Kilometre Array) ? An Australia & South African joint venture. While the Parkes radio telescope in Australia has had a proud history of doing 'it's bit' in regards to many discoveries and joining in world co-ordinated communications etc. It was opened in 1961 and has been consistently upgraded.

They thought that was a weird request, but they drove me up to it. I thought it was one of the coolest things I’d ever seen.

Joe Scott since I have your attention for a sec, with regards to your video on Biocenterism, there is a way to experience the collapse of the wave form directly. I first did this around 10 years ago though a process I learned by a business called MJB Seminars. However they copied it from a guy in the USA - Dr John Demartini. He is actually a Texan an has his business based in Houston. If you ever have the chance, do his Breakthrough Experience program (which I also did) It's two days and on the first day he goes deep into the science of what you were talking about and at the end of the day you get to experience it yourself directly, not just as a concept. And you can challenge anything he says to test him, nothing is sacred. However once you experience it directly, you'll see how the macro and micro relate forever after. And he gives you everything to take home so you can repeat it. On the second day, it just goes into how you can use your new found wisdom in daily life, but the first day is the kicker. It costs around $1600 but after doing it I would have happily paid 10 times that. I'm glad you got into this, I thought you probably would at some point. For me 10 years on and after doing the process many times over, nothing confuses me any more - how the universe all works is just apparent and I keep waiting for the great scientists to get onto this (and Demartini is currently working with several to measure what he is doing and the effects so it can be published)
Interesting video to update the status of instrumental astronomy! Thanks for doing this. Just a clarification about the LSST. It is not located within the Atacama Desert, but in Coquimbo region along with GEMINI south and SOAR telescopes.
Can you do a video on industrial genetic engineering? Basically it entailed modifying microorganism to produce industrial materials (potentially including 3D printing filaments), fuel, drugs, food, etc. Or the societal impact of coming energy tech (like future battery tech killing retail because everything will be delivered by drone for example).
I've been in the lab building the mirrors for the Giant Magellan at the U of A! Truly very cool! I also lived in the dorm attached to the Footballs stadium! The U of A is really getting the most bang for their buck from that stadium!
I've always thought that our moon would be the perfect place to set up a large telescope with its lack of atmosphere. We could call it the BALT (Big Ass Lunar Telescope).

It was not Einstein who hypothesized Black holes, it was Karl Schwarzchild. He used relativity equations to formulate the black hole physics.

Yayy for canary islands :D (hello from GC btw)
So are any of the present or future radio telescopes attempting to "shine light" (sorry) on the Space Roar discovered by ARCADE over 10 years ago? A video from you on the Space Roar would be right up your alley
W just has ridiculously many syllables for being a single letter.
Hey Joe long time fan. You have a great way of breaking things down into laymen's terms. Is there any way you can do a video on Dyson Swarms? Would be so awesome of you thanks
Not just desert dry, Atacama is the most dry desert on earth! I'm Chilean 😉
Great work Joe. But as per usual... Your content is a different better kinda quality then others which is great. I always watch every video beginning to end. You have the right mix of funny, realness, wholesome, genuine, and honest. Thank you 😊❤️💜

Hi from India. Love your videos. And your sense of humor! Way to go scientists!
So I've returned from work, showered, sat down to watch me some Joe Scott and finally eat a tasty dinner with a delicious knowledge side dish... then you hit me with maggots, MAGGOTS!
Never again, Joe!
Aren't many bugs nutritious?
@@windnwater7706 Nutritious doesn't necessarily mean appetizing :(

Great Video! Perfect balance of fun and information!
Spock: Surely captain, it would be more logical to use the giant deflector dish of the Enterprise as a giant telescope - so as we can observe planets throughout our galaxy without having to go there ourselves?
Kirk: You mean, Spock, that you don't want to have sex with green women with red hair who dance on pleasure planets?
Spock: Well, only once every 7 years...
Great job with the research on the history of science
...and your presentation rocks, as always!
NASA must have an entire department for just acronyms at this point. How do they come up with these??
..And how do they remember all of these!
NASA's acronym budget is tiny compared to its backronym department, _that's_ how they remember these, ~come up with the name _first._
Extremely Large Telescope notes joke was frickin hilarious. Great vid Joe.
Rest of the world: We shall build a massive super duper 30m telescope!
China: Cute, now hold my eating sticks...
Some food for thought: I just did some math and, assuming continuous sequential write of 30PB of data throughout one year, FAST will be writing data at 1GB/s.
How much of your audience is too young to have gotten the Mork reference?
Lol that thing about syllables and initialisms/acronyms not actually saving time is really neat.
On a similar note, "www", or "doubleyou doubleyou doubleyou" is literally three times the amount of syllables as "world wide web"
Define *"Irony"* : Launching the JWST one hour before a 100km-diameter asteroid enters the Earth's atmosphere.
I dunno - what if it saw one coming, but we had no time to prepare? Even more ironic?
...friggin' centaurs...sci...they're nailing it with the names on this one. Go scientists!
Keep WFirst and dump Congress and the Executive........
hahaha, that would be awesome!
Love the passion in that intro! Hooked me right in to This weeks video ❤️
We used to think the force was some kind of mysterious energy, until metachlorins were discovered. Thanks, science.

Didn't you know? The Force is female. (According to Disney)
The force is as dead to me as the spelling of the word metachlorins.
Scanning the full sky every three nights? This video was great all around. Thanks for the info! Subscribed.
I guess we have to call it the JWebbST now
Love your videos! The music is good too!!!
Galileo's moon!? Stop looking up his robe man, that ain't cool!
I paused the video to come down here and "discuss 'Italy'" and found that so many had already done that for me. Thanks, y'all!
Just call the James Webb space telescope , The J-Scope. Much easier
Call it Webb.
3:42 Scott crushing us with facts and logic 😂😂
Always on the internet squad.. Not notification squad. Less than a 100 views squad, less than 10 comments squad.
it's a great time to be starting out as an astrophysics major. all these cool projects will be done by the time I'm off to grad school
