I hear "forty light-years" and start feeling as though that's super-close compared to everything else in the cosmos. Then I remember that the Voyager probes haven't even gotten one _light-day_ away from Earth.
Yeah, it does sound close until you remember just how fast light travels. I doubt humans will ever make it that far away from earth. The best we can probably do is send robots/ai once we can accelerate a ship to a meaningful fraction of the speed of light.

I'm imagining another planet with its own Anton Petrov, who makes a video about the discovery of a distant planet potentially habitable, with water and land, orbiting the star Sol every 365+ days.
unlikely to be habitable. It orbits so slowly. Its inhabitants will be burnt to a crisp in summer and water truly FREEZES in the winter. Strange oxygen signatures though.
I would be very interested to see a real picture of one of these places, that would be unreal. Ah well the visuals provided are also pretty good! Great video Anton!
Bruh wants to see a picture of a planet light years away with the same quality as a telescope pointed at earth a few thousand miles away, go invent a gravitational lens based telescope then - that would be unreal.
no panic, surface gravity is 31,8 m/s² on LHS 1140b. It's really hard to get off Earth with s.g. of 9,8 m/s². So probably they can't leave their planet. The escape velocity must be huge. For those who want to go there: you can check in every time you like but you can never leave lol
The formula for the escape velocity is v = sqrt(2gr), where g is the gravitational acceleration on the surface and r is the radius. So LHS 1140b has around sqrt(6) times the escape velocity on earth. And it also gets easier with more height. So I think that‘s not too high but of course also not that easy.
Oddly enough hearing about these potentially habitable worlds makes me appreciate the definitely habitable world we already have. We were grown here to fit the system. Maybe there's a place out there that can house us and maybe there's a place that can do it better, we should totally be looking and if we can make it happen all the better. But there's still going to be only one place we evolved in.
I so deeply wish we could have actual photos of exoplanets, other lifeforms or not. It does not even matter. Just seeing vast oceans like we could never imagine would be breathtaking.
I've always been interested in the idea of a science fiction story set on an eyeball planet that uses the shadow of a moon to run caravans across the scorched side of the planet.
The eyeball is on the sunny side, it's liquid because if always faces the sun. The other side is frozen, how about a giant flying mirror to reflect sunlight, so they could explore the ice.
That sounds like a fire concept! Just imagine how life could adapt to such conditions! There could be some creatures that go into hybernation until the moon blocks out the scorching sun again. There could be swarms of flying/ jumping, migrating insectoids following the shadow of the moon. Fish that come to the surface when the moon covers the sun and dive back into the depths when it moves on. There could be swarms of flying tartigrade/ plancton-like creatures escaping the heat by flying high above the surface when the sun shines and only coming back down to mate when the moon blocks out the light. And let's not even get started on the plants! They would probably be much lighter colors like white/ silver (similar to the desert ant) to reflect most of the light. These flowers would bloom during the eclipse when the moon blocks out the sun. There could be entire ecosystems of floating reflective algea/ plants where underneath fish live in the root system and provide important nutrients. Obviously, your idea needs some more polishing, I think in order to make it work, you would need at least 2 stars to illuminate both sides of the planet constantly. The ideas here are endless. You could call the book something like "scorching" or "eclipse". Get to writing already!
Scorched? Wasn't the "eyeball" thought to be formed by water on the side facing the red dwarf and the rest frozen over? Anyways, made me think of the prison planet Crematoria in the movie "The Chronicles Of Riddick" Where it is either scolding hot or freezing, with only a small window one is able to move on the surface of the planet.
His and his team’s ability do deliver that constantly such high quality content is really impressive. I’d be curious to have a video about what goes behind the curtains of Anton’s team!
Frozen on the dark side, but not necessarily frozen all the way down. Water ice is a good insulator, & esp if there is internal geological activity or strong tidal forces, there could easily be liquid oceans under the ice on the dark side. It would be a very interesting biosphere if there was one.
Anton, I love that you assume our intelligence. You do not "talk down" to us like most science TH-camrs do. Dr. Becky, I am looking at you -- with my eyeball!!!
Always amuses me to think of eyeball planet civilisations. They’d 100% believe their world is flat. And their maps would look just like the crazy flat Earth maps do, with ice around the perimeter 😂
Assuming there were intelligent beings on one of those planets similar to human beings, they would probably come to the same conclusion that their planet is a sphere just using ground tests
@@pauloakes6952he said civilization, so I think that the intelligence is kind of a part of the package. Although I would be still curious if they could develop a cosmic program on an ocean world. Or want to.
😂I hadn’t thought about that. I think their religion and culture would be wild too since their world beyond their “eye” would be uninhabitable and probably unreachable. However, as the other commenters pointed out I think as long as they could develop scientific methodology they would be able to determine that their world was round. For example, they could look at the angle their sun makes at the same “day” and time in different parts of their “eye”.
TWO QUESTIONS 1- would the planet have a huge ice wall? 2- would there be huge sweeping winds across the one patch not ice? Which I would then think would make the surface unbearable.
If the planet was an ocean world, the night side would be more impassable than the Arctic Ocean. Add an Earth-like atmosphere and there would be a massive thermal where its sun would be at the zenith, driving convective wind currents and making the temperature difference less extreme. There could even exist a perpetual storm at that point.
40 light years even at nearly c would take more than that amount of time to get there. We'll need to come up with warp drives or traversible wormholes to get there in a reasonable amount of time.
@JamesDavy2009 Yeah, when we get there, I imagine you're going to sigh & say, "The old girl really has changed, hasn't she?" With a tear in your eye and a quiver in your voice and all that sappy stuff. 🤣
Man, if some sort of technology can actually get us to other worlds. I'd immediately buy myself a brand new ufo & be like "Peace out, Earth. It's been fun, but I'm never coming back." And then proceed to visit every world in the neighborhood. Yep, a total planet-slut. That's what I am. When do I get my Pride Month? 🤣
Life, as we know it on Earth, relies on daily change in temperature and the non-equilibria associated with it. It is hard to imagine that life could be created and maintained in a world that is perpetually locked with its hosting star. The chance for it to have a magnetic field and a magnetosphere is slim.
... Antonomers have observed a shadow on the upper west side of Petrovius, speculating that it is the shadow of the satellite Mike-Boom cast by the star Studio Light ...
Correction: If a tidally locked planet is mostly rock, but has enough water to cover it completely, and is cold enough that said water is frozen, except in the substellar region, then, in the long run, the result would have to be that: • The substellar region becomes a desert, surrounded by a massive wall of ice, ice that is continually melting; thus there should exist permanent rivers and lakes. • The wall of ice is constantly creeping inward (toward the substellar point), pushing rock along, like a bulldozer, and this would pile up into mountains, but running water and creeping ice would carve deep canyons. • All the evaporating water forms a perennial ring of snowing clouds. • Around the substellar point, there should be a landscape gradient suitable for savannah, “lake region,” forest, montane ecosystems, and tundra.
Much depends on the temperature of the dark side of the planet. If it's cold enough to freeze the inert gas in the atmosphere (nitrogen) then there might be little atmosphere at all.
If we find a reachable habitable planet i will volunteer for the first generation if a generation ship. As soon as the ship is out of reach of earth we will create a better path for humanity, that actually works and will survive and have an inspiring future.
If we can get Breakthrough Starshot tech to be common place, perhaps launched from the moon, we would learn so much more about the cosmos. It would be great if LHS 1140b had rotation, and land. Trappist and LHS are basically 40 light years away- not terribly far given cosmic distances. Thanks Anton.
So an eyeball frozen water world, that's interesting. I'm imagining a world that's probably not this one but just a bit hotter where the water on the closest part where the melted patch is evaporates away. Then the water vapor is caried to the far side and falls as snow that builds massive ice sheets until nearly all the water is ice on the far side and the near side is a desert. But the mass of the ice on the far side pushes glaciers toward the hot side all around the planet. And the glaciers melt into rivers that flow into the desert and dissappear into the sand but with greenery on their banks.
It would certainly be an interesting world to study up close. Being that large it's more likely to have held onto some atmosphere, and a magnetic core could be possible. It also may not have had active plate tectonics like our planet if it ever did, since a similar moon to ours is highly unlikely to stick around if it even forms. Any water would mean it has some interesting chemistry on the surface, especially if it isn't alive and the planet is as earthlike as it currently seems. It kind of sounds like darwin IV being so close, and considering everything else.
Very interesting, thank you again. Ordinarily when I hear of planets around red dwarfs that 'may be suitable for life' I automatically think "ah, no." Tidally locked planets close-in to such 'flare stars' will be at very best barren rocks... ...but an 'ice-shell world' with or without an 'eye' with an abundance of water may be in a better position than most to be technically habitable. I hope now or in the near future we will have the ability to check such bodies in greater detail.* *My gut tells me the solar system is an island with life in a very large and barren universe. Indeed, it's very likely that even here only Earth has life. But that's no reason not to look, and I'd be happy to be proven wrong.
It’s about how life evolves in warm water, and where there is movement to coax the primordial oozes. Yes, when we get to our level, we couldn’t live there. But that’s where we started
@@AnthOny-gl7ljWell, yeah, but that's here on earth. On an ocean world like this the oceans would be tens of miles deep in the shallow areas. There'd be no continents like here, hence the name ocean world. Water makes up roughly 0.023% of earth's mass. With an ocean world that's roughly 20 to 50% of the mass.
its hard for me to believe, with all thats been discovered over the years, that earth was the only lucky one to have life present. i hope im alive when they finally have proof of life on another planet, and if that happens, this will be the channel ill go to hear about the discoveries. keep up the good work buddy and god bless!
I would like to take a trip in my own spaceship to some of these worlds just to take a break from this one, at least for a day. I guess this is as close as I'll get!
"Honey, why all this obsession with eyeballs? First it's eyeball paintings, then an eyeball wedding cake, then all of these eyeball food recipes, then all of the eyeball tattoos. Wait a second-where did you say you were from?"
Since this planet is likely tidally locked and likely has a warm and cold side, I wonder if there is some kind of air circulation and ocean current which moves the warm air and water around the planet, which could make certain regions of the planet even more temperate.
Sounds interesting unyil you remember that a foetus leave ng Earth and travelling at the speed od light., would be into middle age by the time they arrive. Really useful!😊
Eyeball planets seem to be more varied and more interesting than we previously thought. We should be very careful about making blanket assumptions about planetary systems and their possibilities for generating life when we know so little about them.
I apologize for the correction, however, I think you mean Permanent-Temperate, not Permanent-Temorary like I heard you say. The latter statement is opposites in definition in english language. On a side note, very interesting information my friend. Keep up the good work.
I always try to leave a little room for some of the estimated mass of any exoplanet actually being a sizable moon, possibly even a double planet setup, given the measurement sensitivity of the currently existing instruments probably isn't high enough precision to tease that detail out of the data.

Good morning. Look up a paper, published in The Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society titled, 'Giant white-light flares on fully convective stars occur at high latitudes'. It discusses observations of rapidly rotating, fully convective red dwarf stars, confirming that their flare activity occurs at higher latitudes, sparing any equatorial orbiting planets from being bombarded. Life might then find a way exist.

What a golden age for exoplanet research. Crazy to think that 15 years ago, the total number of discovered exoplanets was something like 10 ...
And a century ago, we barely accepted galaxies outside The Milky Way and quantum mechanics was in its infancy.
Correction: If a tidally locked planet is mostly rock, but has enough water
to cover it completely, and is cold enough that said water is frozen, except
in the substellar region, then, in the long run, the result would have to be that:
• The substellar region becomes a desert, surrounded by a massive wall of ice,
ice that is continually melting; thus there should exist permanent rivers and lakes.
• The wall of ice is constantly creeping inward (toward the substellar point),
pushing rock along, like a bulldozer, and this would pile up into mountains,
but running water and creeping ice would carve deep canyons.
• All the evaporating water forms a perennial ring of snowing clouds.
• Around the substellar point, there should be a landscape gradient suitable
for savannah, “lake region,” forest, montane ecosystems, and tundra.
Much depends on the temperature of the dark side of the planet. If it's cold enough to freeze the inert gas in the atmosphere (nitrogen) then there might be little atmosphere at all.

There'd be no continents like here, hence the name ocean world. Water makes up roughly 0.023% of earth's mass. With an ocean world that's roughly 20 to 50% of the mass.
I'm naming my kid LHS 1140 b 🙏
its hard for me to believe, with all thats been discovered over the years, that earth was the only lucky one to have life present. i hope im alive when they finally have proof of life on another planet, and if that happens, this will be the channel ill go to hear about the discoveries. keep up the good work buddy and god bless!
and this is in our galactic neighborhood. amazing, maybe life isn't as uniq as we think, but intelligent lifeforms like us are very uniq.
I would like to take a trip in my own spaceship to some of these worlds just to take a break from this one, at least for a day. I guess this is as close as I'll get!
Yeah;- Flash Gordon told me about that planet, years ago!
That smile!
"Honey, why all this obsession with eyeballs? First it's eyeball paintings, then an eyeball wedding cake, then all of these eyeball food recipes, then all of the eyeball tattoos. Wait a second-where did you say you were from?"
Never lose your smile
This looks extremely promising to my eye 🤔👁️
Feels like somebody’s watching me,!!!
I hope we find 4546b soon. :)
Life is very adaptable there only needs to be a small oasis where life is possible and from there evolution will take its course...
Since this planet is likely tidally locked and likely has a warm and cold side, I wonder if there is some kind of air circulation and ocean current which moves the warm air and water around the planet, which could make certain regions of the planet even more temperate.
Sounds interesting unyil you remember that a foetus leave ng Earth and travelling at the speed od light., would be into middle age by the time they arrive. Really useful!😊
Most planets that are habitable as less likely to detect
thank you wonderfull person
Eyeball planets seem to be more varied and more interesting than we previously thought. We should be very careful about making blanket assumptions about planetary systems and their possibilities for generating life when we know so little about them.
New Anton ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
I apologize for the correction, however, I think you mean Permanent-Temperate, not Permanent-Temorary like I heard you say. The latter statement is opposites in definition in english language. On a side note, very interesting information my friend. Keep up the good work.
Temporate - what our planet is. Temporary - only short term.
I always try to leave a little room for some of the estimated mass of any exoplanet actually being a sizable moon, possibly even a double planet setup, given the measurement sensitivity of the currently existing instruments probably isn't high enough precision to tease that detail out of the data.
Apparently, planets with a massive partner like ours are relatively rare.
@@stevenkies802Dr. David Kipping, Professor of Astrophysics at Columbia (Cool Worlds) won time on the James Webb to look for exo-moons for the very first time.
@@stevenkies802 According to the Giant Impact Theory, our Moon formed by accretion of debris from a Mars-size planetesimal (named Theia) colliding with the primordial Earth.
Thanks Anton, EYEBALL PLANET'S now that is scary. I'm still trying to be wonderful. PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE ❤❤.
I would prefer eyeball planets as opposed to planets that rain glass or hot Jupiters orbiting barely outside the Roche Limit.
Isn't everything in the habitable zones of dwarf stars super irradiated?
Good morning. Look up a paper, published in The Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society titled, 'Giant white-light flares on fully convective stars occur at high latitudes'. It discusses observations of rapidly rotating, fully convective red dwarf stars, confirming that their flare activity occurs at higher latitudes, sparing any equatorial orbiting planets from being bombarded. Life might then find a way exist.
2.3 signs is within a 95% confidence interval. I'll take that.
Would the water provide enough protection from the large solar flares that red dwarfs throw?
Hello wonderful eyeball planet.
❤Brill. That James Webb keeps busy innit?😊
Flat earthers were so close with that ice wall on the eyeball
Thats heavy Doc
"There's that word again: heavy." -Dr Emmett Brown
An entire planet of ice with just a patch of water would be super scary to be on.
