Liked and subscribed. I'm not sure why I need this so much; I will not remember any of this by tomorrow morning; and yet I NEED to hear it all, in full detail.
This is an amazing amount of information, Nick. Thank you so much for all the work that must have gone into this series. As an amateur astronomer/ astrophotographer , I find this stuff fascinating. Bravo!!
Hugh Jarse I thought my night was going to be mediocre. Then your latest upload appeared, thank you for these fantastic and interesting space journeys, you rock!
I always wanted to learn about the local stellar neighborhood. Its nice to learn your neighbors. This channel is amazing, and I've been watching loads of videos. Its like if John Michael Godier made longform videos.
I have binge watched both your first video and this one of local neighborhood stars... really loving that all this info is in one place like this. I hope you continue the journey!
Jumping around in Space Engine and visiting every star in the video was fun with your voice over. Space engine gave AEgir rings if you can believe it. Thanks for the timestamps they helped a lot. And yes I would like it to continue. But I also understand that the number of stars in each shell rises with the cube of the distance so I am not made if you leave it at 3 I love your work
Finally got around to finishing this haha. Keep it up! Fall is almost upon us, the days for stargazing for every single star you cover in this series are nigh
Really a classical standard work in TH-cam form: I learned a lot, again! Thnx! Your historical approach to astronomy makes it highly enjoyable to listen.
I sure enjoy everything that you do! I shear it with my family and friends. They tell me how much they like it. So Thank you for another amazing and wonderful work of art! ❤😊❤ You rock! Good Buddy!
You got an instant like from me just for posting another video, I'm only about 5 seconds in but I know for a fact this going to be great. Cheers Nick, keep it up!
It’s ok, I missed the premiere, breathe...... I can still fit at least 7 more meaningful watches before the end of the week ;) We will survive, this time....
I love your channel, and this new series is an excellent addition. I'm really looking forwards to the next instalment. Thank you for all of your hard work and wonderful content!
This particular series (or whatever you want to call them) has been my all time favorite astronomy videos of any kind, ever, and I've been watching astronomy videos since I started watching television back in the 60s.. I cannot thank you enough for taking the immense amounts of time to create them. Highly speculative astronomy I find somewhat irritating and tiresome. But good, old fashioned, practical, "hard", just-the-facts-ma'am astronomy is the stuff that dreams are made of. This is wonderful. Please continue. And thank you ten thousand times!
AWESOME!!! (A much deserved exaltation.... I've always enjoyed your methods of presentation, especially regarding the history of and the men behind the discovery of these stars---this stands head and shoulders above every astronomer-made video I've seen on the youtube). I wouldn't be surprised that someone, somewhere, after seeing you "You Are Here" videos, might be inspired to find more detail on those stars you (and your friend) found little information on---with all the stuff that exists on the internet, there is so much out there that is not.
yes please continue. id be more than happy to hear about each star and its history out to a thousand light years, even if we only have a catalog number for it, its still utterly fascinating to have a guided tour like this.🤩
Competed to the the rest of the TH-cam output this is like falling into a hole of genital culture and civilisation. Thanks for the quality of the content, the absorbing narrative and execution. From the other comments not the first to notice. Yes please for the next instalment.
I don’t know what hardware you use to record your voiceovers, but I love it. There is a delightful lofi quality to it. To my ears, your narration sounds like it was done by an old school journalist. Someone whom you trust. Someone who has the pedigree (professionally) and the chops to deliver the news copy, which he wrote himself, to an astute public.
It's not as useful as you might think. See this example here: stars.chromeexperiments.com/ There's no background in space, so nothing to give a sense of perspective. I think the best help would be to just look at a list of the nearest stars: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nearest_stars_and_brown_dwarfs
Oh my stars and garters, *NICK'S BACK!* PARTY TONIGHT, DUDES! This is better than Loki or Rick & Morty this summer, so I'm gonna get something to drink and get comfy... brb... EDIT: A few observations: 1) Utterly superb. I'm as happy as an eager young space cadet after watching this. 2) I thought New Horizons was moving faster than Voyager 1, but I've been sadly mistaken for years and years, NH ≈ 13KPS vs V1 ≈ 17KPS. 3) How do exoplanet hunters differentiate the luminosity shifts of sunspots from those of planetary transits? 4) I was going to say that Helium Planets are no laughing matter... then I remembered Helium is NOT the laughing gas, but the one that makes you sound like a chipmunk... which makes everyone around laugh. 5) "I think I'll stop here"... you bastard! You're as bad as Loki! Worse!
@@parallaxnick637 Since sunspots rotate as well as appear, change in size and disappear over time, I can only imagine the ridiculous amount of data crunching needed to differentiate planetary transits from sunspots while both are occurring simultaneously... a few parsecs away!
I'm a simple man. I see Nick's video I press like.
That's the least I can do for all the quality content he is producing.
Ye. Same here. But who are the douchebags who give it a thumbs down? 🤪
I've tried to describe how good this channel is to other people, and just can't do it justice.
thanks for trying :)
I was really hoping for a part 2 to this series, and I was not disappointed! I love this series so much
I could not agree more.
Another video from parallax nick? Today is a good day
You're killing it Nick. Liked!
I'm just gonna say what we're all thinking:
Just go ahead and make an entire video on Sirius
Thank you Nick for the video! I’ve clicked like already because I know it will be great as always
Brilliant. I was rolling around as soon as your dog descriptions made their debut!
Excellent episode nick, thank you. Sirius-ly looking forward to the next installment.
Wonderfully informative and interesting, as always :)
Yes! It would be great if this series continues
I enjoyed this immensely, please keep going on my fine Tour Guide to the Stars.
Liked and subscribed. I'm not sure why I need this so much; I will not remember any of this by tomorrow morning; and yet I NEED to hear it all, in full detail.
Thank you so much for another pair of wonderful videos. As usual, I listened, enthralled, from beginning to end.
Thanks for all the work you put into these videos.
Welcome back and tanks for another post. Glad things got fixed. Hope your well
This is an amazing amount of information, Nick. Thank you so much for all the work that must have gone into this series. As an amateur astronomer/ astrophotographer , I find this stuff fascinating. Bravo!!
The best video series on TH-cam! I've watched this 4 times already. Looking forward to parts 3, 4, 5, 6...
Thank you Nick! Your content alone is worth paying for TH-cam.
Loved this. Hypnotic and engrossing.
So happy for a 2nd video
Love this channel love your work
You just put so much in to this
Thanks
Thanks for continuing the series for us. This was great and I love that you "Premiere" these videos now. I had a blast. Bring on part 3 & 4!
Ooo i can't wait :D
Me too :D
same :D
Hugh Jarse
I thought my night was going to be mediocre. Then your latest upload appeared, thank you for these fantastic and interesting space journeys, you rock!
Love this series, you really need to keep going outward!!
I always wanted to learn about the local stellar neighborhood. Its nice to learn your neighbors. This channel is amazing, and I've been watching loads of videos. Its like if John Michael Godier made longform videos.
It doesn’t matter what you make, I’m gonna watch your content. Loving this series though, keep it going as long as you’re enjoying making them.
Thank you Nick, been working too hard in this heat to thank you properly. Brilliant as ever. Love Jeremy.
I like this series. Could listen to this tourist guide forever
Such a great addition to this series! Thank you so much for your hard work!
I have binge watched both your first video and this one of local neighborhood stars... really loving that all this info is in one place like this. I hope you continue the journey!
Thanks just Thanks!! When ever one of your videos drops I know it's going to be a good day.
A stellar production as always. I hope I’ll be able to watch a premiere sometime.
31:51 lets meet for tea at the Teegarden's Star Tea House 🙂... okay, I could not resist 😊.
Absolutely keep going on this series. Like everything else you have done, it is pure gold.
Hooray! Early birthday present! Thanks Nick, fantastic work as usual. Thank you again for everything you do. Love ya, hope you're doing well!
Jumping around in Space Engine and visiting every star in the video was fun with your voice over. Space engine gave AEgir rings if you can believe it.
Thanks for the timestamps they helped a lot.
And yes I would like it to continue. But I also understand that the number of stars in each shell rises with the cube of the distance so I am not made if you leave it at 3
I love your work
I've been pondering what to do after 3. I might just confine myself to stars with Wiki pages.
What wealth of information, such a joy to watch your videos. Thanks for all the work Nick of Parallax fame.
Yessss! It’s finally here! :D
The joy I feel upon seeing that you and SEA have uploaded another video, I cannot describe fully. But thank you! 😌
Finally got around to finishing this haha. Keep it up! Fall is almost upon us, the days for stargazing for every single star you cover in this series are nigh
Really a classical standard work in TH-cam form: I learned a lot, again! Thnx!
Your historical approach to astronomy makes it highly enjoyable to listen.
thanks again.
most informative and entertaining. you have a real knack for this. really appreciate your efforts.
Please do carry on Nick, love your work and your style of delivery. Top notch 🥳🙏❤️
aww man i cant believe i missed this when it came out. What a treat.
You may have no idea how big the next video will be, but I do have an idea how much I'll be enjoying it! Thanks a lot for your work :)
Awesome video. Thanks for taking the time to put that together so well. Perfect job.
Man youre amazing for dong all this laborious work for us to nerd out to. Love it, love it, love it!
I got out of the hospital today and then I saw there was an (almost) new ParallaxNick video. My day keeps getting better.
I sure enjoy everything that you do!
I shear it with my family and friends.
They tell me how much they like it.
So Thank you for another amazing and wonderful work of art! ❤😊❤
You rock! Good Buddy!
So awesome, Nick. The work/time you invested in this upload was obviously enormous but so was my enjoyment and is my gratitude for same Thank you!
You got an instant like from me just for posting another video, I'm only about 5 seconds in but I know for a fact this going to be great. Cheers Nick, keep it up!
Love your vids. I listen to them before I go to sleep. Even when I sleep some of the time.
Always look forward to your content. Thank you.
Absolutely love your videos Nick. I get excited everytime I see you've uploaded a new one!
I'm so happy TH-cam recommended this to me. Thank you for doing this project!
It’s ok, I missed the premiere, breathe...... I can still fit at least 7 more meaningful watches before the end of the week ;) We will survive, this time....

yes please continue. id be more than happy to hear about each star and its history out to a thousand light years, even if we only have a catalog number for it, its still utterly fascinating to have a guided tour like this.🤩
This series is spectacular! Please keep it going.
Really enjoying this series.
Yes, please keep this going!!! Love your episodes!
I may continue it in a slapdash way; say, do a video about Vega and Altair.
@@parallaxnick637 That would be great!
I'll just go ahead and like this now, and watch it when I have time.
you enrich our world and universe. thank you
Oh Noooooo..... I start my shift in 5 minutes 😅😭
Sneaky earbud with a bandaid over it 🤣
I'm smoking blunts, drinking beer... Fuck yeah!!! LoL
@@Elmo_Galupe been dabbing since I woke up 🤠
I love these videos please keep them coming !
Fantabulous job! Thank you!
Awesome work! I would love to see this series continue.
For sure continue this series.
Beautiful work !!
I love all your videos. Thank you!
Another gem! Thank you!
Thank you so much for all the cool information!
3K views only?? This should have millions of views.
as long as you wana keep making them , I,ll keep watching them :)
so good to see your video pop up!!
Yes another video from my favorite youtuber :)
Love your videos keep up the great work.
Please continue with this series it is fascinating!
Your videos are masterpieces of storytelling. Improving sound quality too!
Another awesome video thanks Nick
Very entertaining and educational as always. Thanks Nick
Very informative video KEEP UP the excellent work
Thank you for the great content!!!
Competed to the the rest of the TH-cam output this is like falling into a hole of genital culture and civilisation. Thanks for the quality of the content, the absorbing narrative and execution. From the other comments not the first to notice. Yes please for the next instalment.
Genital culture?
I love this so much. Getting tidbits about individual stars and their discovery. It's like a star buffet!
Edit: stellar buffet sounds better
Thank you for another great episode!
More please! The Galaxy needs you, Nick! Tell us about the next shell of stars further out please.
I don’t know what hardware you use to record your voiceovers, but I love it. There is a delightful lofi quality to it. To my ears, your narration sounds like it was done by an old school journalist. Someone whom you trust. Someone who has the pedigree (professionally) and the chops to deliver the news copy, which he wrote himself, to an astute public.
this is a great series.
15:11 - re : Dung-Beetles curiosity about what stars are.
I feel Dung-beetles have more ... pertinent ... philosophical introspections to ponder.
"Look at those huge glowing dung pills!"
Yes please continue 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
THERE IS NO PARALLEL TO THE PARALLAX..LOVE THE SHOW..MUCH LUV FROM N.AUGUSTA S.C
Thanks again for the great cccontent.
A 3D model of this would be extremely helpful in visualizing where exactly these are in relation to other stars, and ourselves.
It's not as useful as you might think. See this example here:
stars.chromeexperiments.com/
There's no background in space, so nothing to give a sense of perspective. I think the best help would be to just look at a list of the nearest stars:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nearest_stars_and_brown_dwarfs
Also, 100,000 stars infuriatingly doesn’t show any brown dwarfs at all
Well now I know what I will watch while doing cardio in the gym, phew!
Oh my stars and garters, *NICK'S BACK!* PARTY TONIGHT, DUDES! This is better than Loki or Rick & Morty this summer, so I'm gonna get something to drink and get comfy... brb...
EDIT: A few observations:
1) Utterly superb. I'm as happy as an eager young space cadet after watching this.
2) I thought New Horizons was moving faster than Voyager 1, but I've been sadly mistaken for years and years, NH ≈ 13KPS vs V1 ≈ 17KPS.
3) How do exoplanet hunters differentiate the luminosity shifts of sunspots from those of planetary transits?
4) I was going to say that Helium Planets are no laughing matter... then I remembered Helium is NOT the laughing gas, but the one that makes you sound like a chipmunk... which makes everyone around laugh.
5) "I think I'll stop here"... you bastard! You're as bad as Loki! Worse!
Sunspots track for days; planetary transits last for hours at most.
@@parallaxnick637 Since sunspots rotate as well as appear, change in size and disappear over time, I can only imagine the ridiculous amount of data crunching needed to differentiate planetary transits from sunspots while both are occurring simultaneously... a few parsecs away!
I love your stories
