Realizing what the environment of Venus is like should tell us all just how precious life is.
naah bro we would just put covid mask on and be just fine on venus
Venus be like "welcome back to hydraulic press planet"
A goddess on a mountain top
Was burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name
She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
Well, I'm your Venus
I'm your fire, at your desire
You did forget that the venera program had microphones on them as well. So we do have audio of venus
smash

Really wish we'd try making landers again.

It is isn't the impact or lack of an impact, that created the magnetic dynamo (magnetic field). Earth had a healthy spin before its impact and continued to have one after the impact. That spin is what keeps the dynamo active. Venus, like Earth, had a healthy spin. But sometime in the past it too suffered a major impact. That impact flipped it up-side-down--giving it a retrograde spin. It also lost most of its angular momentum. Presumably the object carried it off. The rest was lost by the tidal battle with the sun. We don't view Venus as having a 3 degree tilt, we view it as having a 177.4 degree tilt (meaning its North Pole is upside down).
Mars does not have a magnetic dynamo, because its density is too low, indicating it lacks the nickel-iron core. Its core is also too cold. But I like your content. Keep up the good work.
There is no up or down in space. So 3° is correct.
Atmospheric drag is said to play a part as well.
@@HansvandeVen i guess theres a rule of right hand when describing the orientation of astral bodies
@@ozan1234561 Didn't know that. 👍
The motion of the molten core produces the magnetic field. Mars used to have a magnetic field and atmosphere but lost them when its core cooled and stopped moving.
I remember watching that 2012 Venus transit. I literally just made a pin hole in an aluminium foil and could see it clearly. It was amazing how it didn't require any fancy equipment.
I watched it as well. I did (still do) have and old, cheap 3" refractor scope that included a sun filter. I recall the excitement of having had this opportunity in my lifetime.
Alex your voice is golden I would listen to you narrate videos all day long. Love your content so much
He has another channel with hour+ long videos to put us to sleep 😉
GLORIOUS VOICE you have, Mr Alex.
i jerk off to Alex's milky smooth voice every night
Glorious Alex you have, Mr Voice.
Alex voice is very soothing. It has a real calming effect. 😊
Always great content from astrum.
Venus is like the perfect description of hell. Heat that melts lead, rains sulfuric acid and an atospheric pressure equivalent to 3000ft below sea level.
Venus also goes by the name Morningstar and the Latin name Lucis Ferre (Light Bringer) which is the name of Lucifer.
'Lucifer' *is* exactly the Latin name.
I haven't been this early since I was born
lmfao
I was late to my birth
im not even a subscriber and i somehow wound up here
@@kaelandin I was three days late to mine. Became an emergency c-section
@@kaelandin Luckily, they couldn't start without you!
You could walk on Venus (figuratively) and keep the sun over your head indefinitely. My nerd joke is "Venus rotates backward, but it rotates so slowly that a day is longer than a year. So on Venus, tomorrow is really yesterday, but it won't happen until next year."
I know very interesting. I regale my friends with this anecdote too
If you told me that it would go over my head but now that I think about it makes sense
200 is less than 300.
After watching hurricane coverage for 3 days. Alex’s voice is music to my ears.
The narration and the background music is always on point😊
Always the best videos. Great narration , info and image to match . I've been watching for years 😎
Always enjoying when Stellardrone is playing in the background music. :)
They did a huge favour by making it open license.
I saw the 2012 transit at school.
It was cloudy, but for a few minutes I could see that black dot on the sun. super cool! (2:40)
Amazing video! Thanks, Alex, and the rest of Astrum!
The Russian Venera missions are massively underrated by the US-biased mass media. It was an incredible achievement for human science.
Agree, they should send one more probe to the surface , with all the advancements could get some incredible footage
They were Soviet missions, not Russian missions. The Soviet Union is not the same thing as Russia, countless non-Russian scientists and engineers worked on the Soviet space program and labelling it all as "Russian" is a bit disrespectful of them.
well presented and wonderful use of photos and diagrams.
The fact that Venus is losing it's upper atmosphere to space makes me wonder how it's atmosphere's composition has changed over time, and if it would be possible to figure that out.
Does lack of plate tectonics imply that there is little or no internal convection? If so, that would explain the lack of magnetosphere.
i would think a lack of tectonics would suggest there is no solid plates below the surface, with constant volcanic action and ectreme heat there would be no time for it to cool enough to form a proper solid crust, we have tectonic action because our cooled plates float on a moving molton rock bed but venus probaby doesnt have the same depth of solid surface meaning its constantly resurfacing like over boiled porridge
If memory serves, contrary to what is stated here, Venus is not the only planet in our solar system with retrograde rotation. Uranus rotates at around 98 degrees to its orbital plane, which means that although its rotation is approximately sideways, technically it is retrograde.
@@Roger_Gadd But its rotation is still "standard" with the rest of the planets when you consider the orientation of its North and South poles.
@@saladparfait No. You're wrong. 98 degrees declination (tilt) means the north pole has gone past sideways and is slightly pointed to the the direction where the south pole would normally be.
Crazy thought: any chance at all Uranus and Venus’ history can be related? About when did each decide (!) to ‘bend over’, as it were?
@@Roger_GaddI have a hard time visualising it: doesn’t 98 degrees mean that the North Pole could just as well be the South Pole with 82 degrees?
@@dphuntsmanno, simply no. The poles of Venus are not at any significant inclination despite being retrograde. The only possible comparison is that a collision might have caused it, but that’s highly speculative and certainly would be unrelated events.
I love how you narate everything ❤
Thanks for the video Alex, I find Venus a fascinating place even though it is very hostile. With its phases it helped Galileo to disprove the geocentric model, what I think is quite a step forward in science research, besides being so similar to Earth in size and density but so different on anything else, makes me think on how many things have to go right for life to exist here on Earth and be rewarded at this moment in time with your voice and videos, it feels like a miracle.
Wonderful video that I love ! Thank you for sharing . Happy week-end to you !
Incredible images, and the pepperoni pizza you used for the thumbnail looks mouthwatering!
One of the later Venera craft had a microphone. It worked from just before landing but died in the conditions shortly after landing. The recording is out there on the net. It makes interesting listening.
it's like 30 Seconds long, and you hear 2 "Pops", and then barely hear the Wind. Not very interesting, and just shows the low quality of "Communist Made".
You got me hooked on Venus from your last video on Venus. Bonus! 😊😊
Something I love about Venus is that it had so much influence on humanity for so long that not until Humans finally got a look at the surface that people finally gave up that last shred of hope that they would see steaming swamps and some kind of alien version of a Land of the Lost under the clouds of Venus.
Good video. Thanks guys.
nice overview of the planet
I would love it if you make more long form content like 30min+. They're great as sleeping material.
I hope it doesn't sound wierd, but it's great. And lively facts too
it’s true - my favorite enrichment before bedtime
He has another separate channel with long form audio narration content.
Also has the Astrum Sleep podcast wherever you get your podcasts.
www.youtube.com/@astrumextra Check it out ;)
Weird? Naw we good.
Tone deaf and incredibly disinterested in the actual content that was curated--nailed it!
Gosh I look at venus every day and thought it was a really bright start never thought about it much I want a telescope now
if you want to tell instantly if you're looking at a planet or a star, remember that planets don't twinkle.
I love your voice so much.... if the content of your vids weren't so interesting to listen to, I'd easily fall asleep to them... but alas, i alwsys end up listening to the very end ❤
This type of Data is enormously fascinating! Thank you for offering so much information to us, they Laymen of society. The data of each Planet is so fascinating to me that when I was a kid, deep into the more scientifically driven Sci-Fi world of Stark Trek, that I created entire star systems with planets and all of the basic data that we have for our other Planets in our Solar system. I wish I can kept the endless work I poured into creating these planets, their stars, whether singular, binary or otherwise, along with each exo-planet, and accompanying satellites
Your voice is like a eargasm dude seriously
0:44 Sounds like my exwife
Dantavious?
In a pristine dark sky, Venus at peak is so bright its light washes out stars around it, and it casts a hard, distinct shadow that you can clearly see with your eyes. It's remarkable.
Incredible!
Venus is like a tormented yet still close sibling to Earth, because they are so similar but Venus is such a hellish world, I see it like it’s been through hell whilst earth was lucky. This is because Venus had a stagnant lid instead of plate tectonics and there is evidence of water vapor in Venus’s atmosphere that is being removed slowly.
We had a party on that day and an astronomer friend set up a telescope ‘show’ projection. According to a TH-cam video I saw, George III was very interested in this phenomena and had the astronomy tower in Greenwich built so he could witness the phenomena that occurred during his lifetime!
I'd put Venus' lack of magnetic field down to Venus' incredibly slow and backwards rotation.
Also, the lack of a massive moon means that tidal forces are not affecting the interior.
@@daniels7907We have no other examples to go off, we are the only habitable place in the universe we know about, and we don't know if it requires a large moon, or a nearby Jupiter sized planet, or both to make it work.
@@thesenate1844 - That's actually what calls attention to this for rocky planets. Mercury, very close to the Sun and subject to strong tidal forces on it's metallic core has a magnetic field. Venus, orbiting further from the Sun with slow rotation and lacking any moons does not have one. Mars, even further away and with just two tiny asteroids as "moons" also lacks one.
There seems to be a need for some kind of dynamo causing some difference between the speed of rotation within a planet's different interior layers in order to produce such a field.
@@daniels7907 Io is a terrestrial body exposed to tremendous tidal forces, but it has no magnetic field. It has an iron core but no dynamo. Tidal forces may be a part of the puzzle, but doesn’t seem like the deciding factor.
@@michaellesak6912 - In Io's case any magnetic field would be almost impossible to measure (or sustain) given the plasma torus it creates inside of Jupiter's immensely powerful field, plus the electrical arc that extends all the way from io to Jupiter's poles. The energy that would normally be Io's field is being spread out because of its location and the effects its volcanism produce by spewing matter into the Jovian field.
AStRuM and ASMR have same initials. This isnt a coincidence i guess. I always get fantastic sleep when i see your uploads before sleeping
The impact hit causing the moon hypothesis is very popular but not a known fact yet.
Great video, just add a disclaimer for things that are the popular belief but not yet proven.
There’s a lot of evidence it did happen. Collisions were common in the early solar system. Jupiter wiped out the Super Earths after all, a very common type of world in the universe.
@@abloogywoogywoo hence why its popular
There are also other potentially viable causes as well requiring no impact.
It's not in the realm of fact yet and there are some problems with this as well, hence why I asked for a disclaimer.
Your comment doesn't address this, simply having a lot of evidence for a hypothesis doesn't mean it happened.
@@dawienel1142 when you have two or more competing hypotheses why would pick the ones with less evidence?
@@dawienel1142 offer an alternative - however, you have no frame of reference since you can’t point to a host planet that has a satellite with such a large relative mass to the primary. Demoted to dwarf planet Pluto doesn’t count. Eventually as the Moon moves away, Earth becomes tidally locked to it, and the two become a double planet system. Again, no exosolar system examples. This is why I said there is a lot of evidence for the impact hypothesis.
@@abloogywoogywoo Why would you pick any without conclusive evidence?
I don't think I've ever gotten a reply on here before, and as a fellow content creator, I understand it's not always easy. However. I do have a question that I hope that you or someone else could find some time to answer. I always hear that Venus' acid rains evaporate before reaching the surface, but wouldn't the intense pressure allow it to retain its liquid form even at those high temperatures? Also there are unexplored "river" valleys all throughout Venus that scientists can't explain as lava flows since they are too long and intricate. Could these have been carved out by sulfuric acid river flows if my above theory is correct?
Also the lack of a magnetic field seems obvious to me but maybe there's more to it. The rotation of the Earth as well as it's moon generate more friction and tidal forces respectively. Venus has the slowest rotation of any planet and it's the only planet that lacks moons besides Mercury. Certainly that would reduce is interior heat/dynamo? Thanks in advance.
I find absolutely no reason why anyone would think you crazy if you described this meeting of ours.
I didn't know that there was more than two probes with cameras
There were clearly pictures I hadn't before
This was a perfect overview of Venus
13:00. Okay, so wait...Venus never had an impact to initialize the core's rotation, so no dynamo, no magnetosphere.
But then that also means we've eliminated a possible cause of its slow rotation, then (4:55). It's slow rotation must have been from tidal forces sapping it's angular momentum for billions of years, since it couldn't have been a big impact, because a big impact would've left it with a magnetosphere.
And we know that tidal heating can be pretty intense, that's why Io is a molten ball. Which is an extreme case, certainly.
BUT
That gradual tidal heating, combined with increased solar fluence due to the progressively longer days, seems like a good candidate to explain what kickstarted it's runaway greenhouse effect.
I look forward to more images of foggy, crisp mornings on Golden Pond amongst the birch trees--of Venus.
The number of in video ads is destroying the enjoyment I used to get from your vids… can’t watch before bed anymore.
Use an Ad-Blocker.
I think that's actually a youtube problem because I don't use an adblocker and I don't believe I even got any ads.
Adblocker.
This video seems like it might be slightly out of date, as in the past few years it has been definitively determined that at least some volcanoes on Venus are in fact active and spewing out lava as we speak. This was determined both by inferred imagery of the surface showing hot spots in the calderas of some of the volcanoes as well as topography maps from the 70s and 80s compared to now, which clearly show recent lava flows have occurred.
Honestly, Pluto would have been a more accurate name for venus since pluto in Roman mythology is the God of the Underworld.
The dwarf planet pluto, on the other hand, should be named venus since it has a heart-shaped ice basin.
A cold heart?
Thank you, Alex! ☁🔥
If you told the Greeks that Venus looked beautiful on the outside but was actually a horrifying hellscape below the cloud layer I think they'd just agree that it was even _more_ representative of the love goddess
Thanks Alex!
The Romans were quite apt, then, to name Venus, the god of love. A hellish landscape, indeed.
The person who named Uranus:
(13:00) "But Venus never had such an impact" contradicts Venus rotates in different direction because an impact.
Finally someone wakes up about how special Venus is. But the greenhouse effect is incorrectly mentioned.
How so? I don't know any better I can't tell hehehe
How?
@@saladparfait The heat on Venus is caused by the atmospheric pressure and has nothing to do with CO2. Same as on earth but we have all been lied to about that.
Thank you
Great report! - Dave Huntsman
I watched the 2012 transit of Venus with my GOTO refractor using a small white plastic screen attached to the telescope. I took a few photos, I'll have to find them.
Wow what telescope do I need to see Venus that clear!!
Did I miss the part where the atmosphere at the surface is supercritical, or was it not mentioned?
endlessly fascinating!
There's a good video somewhere about 50kms up in Venus' atmosphere being equal to 1 earth atmo, so one interesting possibility is floating balloon cities up there :).
So this Venus tail that reaches earth that you cannot see with your eyes, could it have some other impact on our planet that we know to little about but that could explain some phenomenon?
masterpiece
Nothing slaps like Venus + Astum 😍
For all the tweens to identify with: Earth is the class you're hoping for but you get Venus
You can imagine the power of all planets, including his sun all aligned that will be a great tug of war power
Nobody has ever said it was Earth's twin. Youre the first person in my 15 years of studying astronomy that has said this.
I heard it several times in the last 25-15 yrs.
I wonder if other planets in our solar system harbour simple or even microscopic life. If the Mariana trench here on Earth taught us one thing, it was that sometimes life exists in the most unexpected and inhospitable places. So sometimes I wonder what lurks under the atmospheres of Jupiter Saturn Neptune and Uranus.
3:36 "all the planets orbit anti-clockwise..." is only a matter of perspective. The orbit is exactly opposite seen from the other side.
Very good.
Just in case you’re going to reference something from USSR in future videos. Please use USSR, not Russia, because USSR contained of 15 different republics (often it was equal to very different nations) ❤❤❤😊
We need to get Venus a gravity smack so that it can start rotating anti-clockwise. You know what I mean. Just give it a big smack get it spinning again
Could you say that Venus has more in common with Io than Earth? Mainly because of volcanoes and the temperature.
I must say that the graphics at 13:02 are/were splendid. (Venus after an impact) Or maybe it's just me ... easily impressed. 😀
It really bothers me that you’re showing mercury and mars as the same size as earth and Venus. A lot of people don’t understand how much smaller they are and you’re reinforcing this.
Can you add the farenheit temps in parentheses or something next to your temps?
6:20 if Earth and Venus have same gravity, why doesn't Venus atmosphere expand, and lower its density to Earth air density? Or why doesn't Earth air compress to the same pressure as in Venus?
different composition.
Lightening on venus might be of higher voltage than the lightening on earth. Or is it gonna be same voltage?
6:30 Youre making it sound as if the high temperature of Venus atmosphere was mostly due to the CO2 greenhouse effect. Actually CO2 only plays a minor role. The major causes for its high temperature are the proximity to the sun and the enormous mass of the atmosphere. Mars too has an atmosphere of CO2 yet it is colder than earths south pole because its atmosphere is very thin and its farther from the sun.
Did Venus once have a solid iron core and a dynamo electro magnetic field but it stopped and the solid iron core melted and the entire interior of Venus is now just magma at various temperatures?✌️❤️🇬🇧
Honestly I would refrain from using Soviet and Russian interchangeably. Venera was a Soviet space program, not a Russian one. While the Russians were a majority, countless scientists and engineers that worked on the Soviet space program were not Russians. The Soviet = Russian is a narrative that the Russians love, but is disrespectful of the other nations that were part of the USSR (many of them not by choice). I know this is not what your intent, but I felt the need to point this out.
That region up in the atmosphere that's very earth like is why people think floating colonies on venus could be a good option
Love to watch you while eating, nice content!
I don't know; there isn't anything beautiful about it in my opinion. It's fascinating, no doubt about it.
Realy I like this video its so so interestyng
I’ve had a great view of Venus for the past few weeks from western USA. Nice & bright during dawn. Too bad I don’t have a telescope.
Planetary classification got to be the most confusing thing in astronomy that constantly bother me (because it also introduce panic esp when they say we discovered a new "super earth" or "new earth like in the habitatable zone" making people think of alien and conspiracy theories while these terms basically reference only to radius mass and the planet being rock in the not too cool or too hot zone of its star venus is right there to teach us this mindset is WRONG
I would reccommend landing on Gilly first👍
Let's consider it that one cousin that likes to play with fire.
Venus is a example of earths possible future but so is mars
Gracias por el video ♥
me when venus drops a fire album 🔥🔥🔥
7:03
RAAHHHH
ASTRONOMY IS SO COOL
I have heard some compelling arguments for colonising venus through floating colonies in the upper atmosphere but seems like a bad choice overall
Technically its Mercury closest to us ... but love all your videos
Why is mercury closest?
Mercury is closer on average, but Venus is closer at its closest.
@@Drew-od4dh
Its more often on our side of the sun and as such more often closest, and at its closest is only 4m miles further sway than Venus at its closest.
Interesting isnt it, you would never think it would you
So Venus is sort of a message for humanity, "Your world could have been just like this."
So parts of venus's atmosphere mix into earth atmosphere every once in awhile? If so thats pretty cool.
0:33 The "acid-laced environment" isn't necessarily as bad as you might suppose. What you have is hydrogen sulfate. For that to be sulfuric acid, you need water. There is not much of that on Venus. (However, there is some-details on request.)
Shwew! We dodged that bullet.
