Saturn stopped Jupiter entering Inner Solar System but the moving outward of Jupiter, it gives a special gift for the terrestrial worlds..water...so thanks to these giant planets, you give the Earth a way to develop life
Props to the cameramen who traveled back in time Jupiter was created, stayed around and following its orbit until today, and managed to avoid asteroids and another space objects Edit: Ma, check this out, I'm famous 😃
@@mihirojha4475 Doubt it. It is very hard to hit the sun, due to its gravitational pull. Jupiter is still too small to affect the sun in any meaningful way with its gravity. More likely, Jupiter would get pretty close then enter a stable elliptical orbit. All this said, I am not an astrophysicist. I don't know the math for any of this. And I could be wrong.
You know it's not true white scientist can't phantom that there is a GOD the funny thing is y'all government knows that these black beings who look human exist but some reason NASA and the powers to be do their best to hid the fact but very soon during ww3 when my 👑 YAHAWYASHI returns all will know that there is only one true GOD and none else
Sooo, basically Jupiter and Saturn were like our Godparents, huh? Aww even the planets had something close to a love story. So dope! I always knew there was something between those two giants 😆😆❤️❤️
Saturn's arrival is kinda like Jupiter bullies the inner Solar System and Saturn calms him down and instead of rushing through the sun, the two helped the inner planets
starting to make sense why life is so rare in the universe. if things have to go just right like this, with jupiter, saturn, and the moon all playing specific roles to chisel the earth just the right way for life to develop and be sustained, then it makes sense why the sky is not teeming with life edit: yet
We are in and old universe. Alien civilization community was only possible in the EARLY universe when things were closer together. The universe is simply WAYYYYY to big and far apart now. I don't think you understand how big our universe is......
@@valenwood6299we are in the very early universe by most models? It has only been 13.8 billion years, when stars will likely last to 100 trillion years. It's entirely possible we're a very very early intelligent species. Remember that life really struggled with complexity here, and it was only with the Cambrian Explosion that it finally got started. Then it took another several hundred million years to get to us - and we came very very close to extinction multiple times, and every one of our cousins didn't make it. Had life taken just another 20% longer to form complexity here, then chances are we simply wouldn't have been here fast enough to avoid the sun making it inhospitable to complex life. Not to mention, it's still a pretty reasonable probability that we never make it to the stars... So it seems we're quite a ways along in the process, but it's still possible the next few hundred years are another significant filter event...
Am I the only one who wants to be able to breathe in outer space and be able to fly and withstand the harshness of these planets to personally fly there to see if the scientists have gotten it right I love these videos ❤️
@@narcs. right or not about what? My very limited experience with astral projection only left me with the knowledge that it is possible. And that it takes very little time to go as far as Saturn if you're not tied to the physical. And that if you get scared and want to return to your body, you do, just as fast as you left.
I’m always in amazement when I’m shown yet another unbelievable event that paved the way for Earth to develop and sustain life. We had the hot hand that round
@@MedicAthlete24W Bible clearly says the EVENING & THE MORNING were the FIRST DAY...SECOND DAY...ETC. Evening & morning =24 hours. And later Jesus says know ye not that there are 12 hours in a day? Meaning 12 hours of day light & 12 hours of night. And the whole purpose of the 6 days is set as an example for us to work 6 days & rest the 7th as God did. Of course, most people today work 5 days & are off 2, but that hasn't always been the case.
In Roman mythology, Saturn was a God of Time and Harvesting, kind of like a Grim Reaper stern old man sort, and Jupiter was his belligerent, exuberant young son who forced himself into the role of King of the Gods. So I imagine them more like a anxious and timid father keeping their larger boisterous child safe.
I believe in India the Sanskrit word for Jupiter is Guru, which means a guide or teacher or similar. Truly fascinating how those ancient Indians had such philosophical views of the planets which are so much like there actual history and behaviour. Edit: It's Brihaspati but still means quiet the same.
It’s “Brihaspati”, or Paruhassabodi in my language, literally means “lord of all sages” or “chancellor of all gods” who counsels all devas or gods in Hinduism, also a guru or teacher of all rishi or hermit
I remember a Hymn taught in High School which made no sense at the time, yet so fascinating 1. Then even non-existence was not there, nor existence, There was no air then, nor the space beyond it. What covered it? Where was it? In whose keeping? Was there then cosmic fluid, in depths unfathomed? 2. Then there was neither death nor immortality nor was there then the torch of night and day. The One breathed windlessly and self-sustaining. There was that One then, and there was no other. 3. At first there was only darkness wrapped in darkness. All this was only unillumined cosmic water. That One which came to be, enclosed in nothing, arose at last, born of the power of knowledge. 4. In the beginning desire descended on it - that was the primal seed, born of the mind. The sages who have searched their hearts with wisdom know that which is, is kin to that which is not. 5. And they have stretched their cord across the void, and know what was above, and what below. Seminal powers made fertile mighty forces. Below was strength, and over it was impulse. 6. But, after all, who knows, and who can say Whence it all came, and how creation happened? the gods themselves are later than creation, so who knows truly whence it has arisen? 7. Whence all creation had its origin, the creator, whether he fashioned it or whether he did not, the creator, who surveys it all from highest heaven, he knows - or maybe even he does not know.
The most dramatic presentation of the formation of the Solar system I've seen 😅 And beautiful images 👍 But including a bit more explanation of the causation would be useful: things like why was Jupiter migrating inward, how did Saturn pull it back rather than both moving inward further, and how did that then pull water in from the outer regions? A bit more background science instead of the exaggerated drama... But thanks for the video 😊
this definitely makes me want to know more and not just be mesmerized by the beautiful images and computer generated visuals. this short was so much lacking information, I'd say its misinformation.
that’s how i feel about these videos as well. i just stumbled upon this series a few days ago and would have to agree. a lot of drama but little information. almost like they doubt our ability to grasp the more technical information. videos are still appreciated anyways 👍
The water bit was explained, water rich material was flung inward. This means things were influenced by their orbit and some of those things were flung into the inner solar system
if you want to learn more, then do your own research - it’s pretty simple. very rarely do shows like this provide detailed information, so it is YOUR responsibility to do further readings of scientific, peer-reviewed articles.
To me the most mind blowing part is how much of all this HAD TO HAPPEN in this exact way for us to be here. And how much of it was millionths or billionths of a chance of happening in that way at that exact time lol
Why so many believe these fairy tales, LIES. Take GOD at His word. God created all things 6,000 years ago. We are NOT here by random chance or accident we are here because GOD purposed us to be here.
@@ZeeroTwoNone It's more than just my belief, it's GOD'S VERY WORD & I will continue to come against the lies of this world & the devil & continue to share the Gospel Truth everywhere I go.

No one witnessed this stuff. So it can only be theoretical. It is the best, plausible explanation of why these inner planets we live on were even able to form. We do not see these small planets in other systems, that is why our case must be special.
@@zhongxina9569 We don't see these small planets in other systems? How many systems do we know about out of the innumerable stars in the universe exactly? And no one witnessed our system's formation? Wow. Super insightful.
Same here! My entire family, friends and cousins are not a Space and astronomy lover whereas I am a mad geek about it. I hope to find someone in my life who also loves of what I take interest in too.
This video is the perfect examine for why most people don't like Astronomy. Everyone I know, except my nephew hates Astronomy, because it's a very deep subject; and extremely difficult to comprehend.
It’s still unknown how we got this much water and why we have not drowned all. If water was brought back in millions years ago. Why then it stops at sorting point.
I love how certain these scientists are. Using words like "we know". Entirely possible that a thousand years from now, future generations laugh at our theoretical hubris
It would be the same 2000 years ago if someone were to tell you the story of Genesis, they would speak with certainty. That's what theories are. And when evidences prove or debunk theories, we have new more plausible ones, so of course we can speak as if we had direct knowledge: it's more plausible to have Jupiter and Saturn dance around, getting too close to the Sun then moving further away, than have a supreme being with questionable omnipotence create the Earth and everything around in 7 days, because there are more evidences and calculations pointing to the earlier than the later for example. Nothing is certain, we can't know everything, we can only know the echoes of the truth, where we are certain. Science is something that evolves over time, so eventually some things we speak with certainty of might be debunked. It's okay, we get better. Change.
I would like a more detailed explanation. They keep talking about Jupiter's gravity pushing things "out" and "away", but we experience gravity as pulling in and towards. So what is this pushing notion?
What I understand from this theory, in more detail, is that when Jupiter plows into the primordial disk's dust, all the material collides with the planet mostly on the near side (aka the side that moves "forward" in the orbit). It slows down the planet since their impact goes against its direction in the orbit, and so its orbit decays, slowly getting closer to the Sun. At one point, Saturn and Jupiter became locked in a mean motion resonance. When Jupiter gets closer to Saturn, it accelerates being "pulled" by the planet, and when it gets further, it slows down. Same goes for Saturn, which gets pulled and accelerates when moving closer to Jupiter, and slows down when moving further. This created an interaction that stabilizes the system. More dust material, mainly those that would collide with Jupiter's far side in the orbit (the side that moves "backwards" in the orbit) pushes the planet and gives it kinetic energy, and thus accelerates its speed. Jupiter and Saturn start moving outward. As Jupiter plows into the icy dust further out, it flungs all of those towards the Inner Solar System, hence why we get water on the first four planets, especially the Earth.
You can buy them on DVDs or Blu-Ray (same as the other BBC Earth series, like Blue Planet, Dynasties etc.). Havent seen them on stream somewhere yet, thou.
You're telling me Jupiter's interaction with Saturn somehow pulled all this water from comets outside of the solar system onto earth.....? Lol unfathomably large stretch of a statement that one
Jupiter prevented shooting comets from entering the solar system. By retracting these comets were able to enter the solar system since they were no longer as affected by Jupiter's gravity.
Lol what? Planets form from the collisions of millions of rocky, metallic, gaseous and... wait for it... ICY particles. Jupiter and Saturn didn't lay down oceans on Earth neatly like SimCity--their immense gravities helped PULL these particles into colliding paths that helped create our solar system's rocky inner planets... including Earth. There are MILLIONS of planets, moons and other celestial bodies in our galaxy and beyond with various forms of ice, including fascinating stuff like Ice VII. Much of Earth ice turned to water--the OCEANS--because Earth wound up in the "Goldilocks Zone."
@@vladimirofsvalbard9477 no terraforming happened to earth. It's in the habitable zone, it just evolved overtime. Stop spreading things that aren't there.
How many variables are there?! My god! So many! The odds of life forming and evolving into intelligent life in a solar system are staggering. Everything has to be perfect! I think life in the universe may be more unique than we think. There is just so much that can go wrong. We are either very lucky or some other intelligence paved the path
In ancient Vedic Hindu mythology (well they call it so) it’s mentioned that the river Ganga flew to earth from the extra terrestrial. To control its massive flow Shiva entangles it to his jata (hairs) and let’s it flow smoothly. Never in my wild thoughts did I believed it until what I just saw.. water actually came from outside.. phew😵💫
I was thinking the same. I mean, the stories and characters are meant to be descriptive for ease of reference, but the phenomena are too good to be true when you hear them; until you have it retold with objective thought. When they say Shiva entangles Ganga to his locks, it may be a poetic way of saying the comet hit the Himalayas and the water flow was slowed down considerably as it had to wind its way through the mountains. Otherwise it would have been a monumental deluge from the heavens, literally. Just a postulation.
how did Saturn pull Jupiter outward? how did the outward migration deliver water to earth? so it's actually Saturn who is the godfather, since it stopped Jupiter's destructive inward path right? and for fun: wonder what would the folks who believe in the 'electric universe' (see 'thunderbolts project') would say about the info presented here?
So, we all owe a debt of gratitude to Saturn. Never thought of it this way. Pretty cool.
That's why we put the biggest ring on her she wifey.
It’s like a father terrorizing his kids until the mother comes.

It would be the same 2000 years ago if someone were to tell you the story of Genesis, they would speak with certainty. That's what theories are. And when evidences prove or debunk theories, we have new more plausible ones, so of course we can speak as if we had direct knowledge: it's more plausible to have Jupiter and Saturn dance around, getting too close to the Sun then moving further away, than have a supreme being with questionable omnipotence create the Earth and everything around in 7 days, because there are more evidences and calculations pointing to the earlier than the later for example. Nothing is certain, we can't know everything, we can only know the echoes of the truth, where we are certain. Science is something that evolves over time, so eventually some things we speak with certainty of might be debunked. It's okay, we get better. Change.
I mean, its not that hard to figure out
I would like a more detailed explanation. They keep talking about Jupiter's gravity pushing things "out" and "away", but we experience gravity as pulling in and towards. So what is this pushing notion?
They explain it at 5:20
What I understand from this theory, in more detail, is that when Jupiter plows into the primordial disk's dust, all the material collides with the planet mostly on the near side (aka the side that moves "forward" in the orbit). It slows down the planet since their impact goes against its direction in the orbit, and so its orbit decays, slowly getting closer to the Sun. At one point, Saturn and Jupiter became locked in a mean motion resonance. When Jupiter gets closer to Saturn, it accelerates being "pulled" by the planet, and when it gets further, it slows down. Same goes for Saturn, which gets pulled and accelerates when moving closer to Jupiter, and slows down when moving further. This created an interaction that stabilizes the system. More dust material, mainly those that would collide with Jupiter's far side in the orbit (the side that moves "backwards" in the orbit) pushes the planet and gives it kinetic energy, and thus accelerates its speed. Jupiter and Saturn start moving outward. As Jupiter plows into the icy dust further out, it flungs all of those towards the Inner Solar System, hence why we get water on the first four planets, especially the Earth.
I think the copy had a typo: careening would have been more appropriate than "careering"
So could that make Jupiter a good contender for why Mercury is so far off course? Or were they worlds apart?
Mercury is the first planet from the sun… Jupiter is the 5th
Very dramatic and emotional narration, wouldn’t you say, Spock? It is fascinating...
is there anywhere i can go to watch these full documentaries?
Yes great question
You can buy them on DVDs or Blu-Ray (same as the other BBC Earth series, like Blue Planet, Dynasties etc.). Havent seen them on stream somewhere yet, thou.
*Jupiter to Io:* “what have I ever done to you…to make you treat me with such disrespect?”
You're telling me Jupiter's interaction with Saturn somehow pulled all this water from comets outside of the solar system onto earth.....? Lol unfathomably large stretch of a statement that one
Jupiter prevented shooting comets from entering the solar system. By retracting these comets were able to enter the solar system since they were no longer as affected by Jupiter's gravity.
Lol what? Planets form from the collisions of millions of rocky, metallic, gaseous and... wait for it... ICY particles. Jupiter and Saturn didn't lay down oceans on Earth neatly like SimCity--their immense gravities helped PULL these particles into colliding paths that helped create our solar system's rocky inner planets... including Earth.
There are MILLIONS of planets, moons and other celestial bodies in our galaxy and beyond with various forms of ice, including fascinating stuff like Ice VII. Much of Earth ice turned to water--the OCEANS--because Earth wound up in the "Goldilocks Zone."
So did you just fly in from stupid town?
@@vladimirofsvalbard9477 no terraforming happened to earth. It's in the habitable zone, it just evolved overtime. Stop spreading things that aren't there.
Is Zachary Quinto the narrator? Good narration makes these shows great
How many variables are there?! My god! So many! The odds of life forming and evolving into intelligent life in a solar system are staggering. Everything has to be perfect! I think life in the universe may be more unique than we think. There is just so much that can go wrong. We are either very lucky or some other intelligence paved the path
This is why it is called the great filters. And we did not go through all of them yet and never will
Nah, we are just the result of the conditions
"this is why mars is so small"
The conviction that guy has on a post hoc imagination is admirable tbh.
Saturn came too late to save Mars but came right on time to save Earth.
Jupiter trying to fight the sun. What a lore
We should thank Saturn 🪐
Awesome documentaries...keep me glued to my mobile phone 🥰🥰
Seems like more than mere coincidence. This reinforces my belief in a Creator God. Truly the universe is beautiful and miraculous.
Saturn, another reason to love Saturdays
In ancient Vedic Hindu mythology (well they call it so) it’s mentioned that the river Ganga flew to earth from the extra terrestrial. To control its massive flow Shiva entangles it to his jata (hairs) and let’s it flow smoothly.
Never in my wild thoughts did I believed it until what I just saw.. water actually came from outside.. phew😵💫
I was thinking the same. I mean, the stories and characters are meant to be descriptive for ease of reference, but the phenomena are too good to be true when you hear them; until you have it retold with objective thought.
When they say Shiva entangles Ganga to his locks, it may be a poetic way of saying the comet hit the Himalayas and the water flow was slowed down considerably as it had to wind its way through the mountains. Otherwise it would have been a monumental deluge from the heavens, literally.
Just a postulation.
3:00 how does this work? shouldn't its gravity be pulling object toward it?
Thanks Saturn 🪐🤗👍🏻
Good videos for sleeping. Thank you
how did Saturn pull Jupiter outward?
how did the outward migration deliver water to earth?
so it's actually Saturn who is the godfather, since it stopped Jupiter's destructive inward path right?
and for fun: wonder what would the folks who believe in the 'electric universe' (see 'thunderbolts project') would say about the info presented here?
Saturn is more like the fairy godmother who stopped the godfather from getting carried away (inward 😅)
@@aeydra this joke made my day 😂
Because of gravity
