Mork is from ORC!
But seriously, it's amazing when nobody knows what they are or how far away they are. Wondering if the radio waves are blue or red shifted.
Thank God we have figured out how to detect Romulans when they are using their cloaking devices! I will sleep much better tonight knowing we've resolved this problem!
No, thats Space-Orcs radar-scanning our system!
I was thinking the same thing.
I love this channel so much the best news source for astronomy lovers. Keep it up!
I imagine it's also impossible to determine the exact radio frequencies being emitted until a distance is determined due to doppler shifting.
if its emitting only radio waves at a certain frequency, does that mean that there is no doppler effect ? and possibly its pretty close?
@@levani7851 You can't really determine the amount of doppler shifting without some baseline indicator. For example, if these regions could be tied to a Hydrogen alpha line, you could see how much that spectral line has shifted from 21cm. But since we have no idea what the source of radio emissions is, we have no idea what the emission spectrum is supposed to be. Another example is supernova remnants which Anton showed in this clip. These explosions have a well known spectral signature which can be used to measure doppler shift and thus distance.
I still have a problem with 'hubble's constant' ... or our belief in it anyway
@@WestOfEarth could they assume the orcs have the same emitting frequency then use doppler to calculate relative distances?
@@iamFegor That seems plausible.
OMG! There are now SPACE O.R.C.s! Some one call Astartes Militarum!

Could an ORC be the site where a new universe has formed a “bud” and then separated from our universe if we are in a multiverse?
No. While they are very peculiar, and the reason for the ORCs are shrouded in mystery, they are only clouds of ranged frequency radio, like a signal jammer. If you're looking for universe pathways, go find a spinning black hole.

Hello Anton 💋
Blackhole lensing of magnetar emissions would be my guess.
Don't know what you are talking about but upvote your comment as it is the first i find here that is not attempt of being funny by telling the joke twice.
You mean gravitational lensing? He mentioned that at 7:21 So that's not the answer as they dont have the mass required in the middle of the rings. Unless that is exactly what it is and we simply cant see the mass... because of... reasons.
Are any of the objects close enough to be determined by parallax? (My apology if he covered this, I was drifting to sleep last night)
@@cowboybob7093 I think the distance from us is one of the unknowns.
@@Ubeleili Well, if the only thing behind it is these low energy emissions then they'd be the only way to see said mass.
Scientists: we found orc’s
Gimli and Legolas: they are taking the hobbits to Isengard
Scientists: 😐
How long have you been waiting to use that one?
@@jamielacourse7578 the orc's what?
@Suraj Nayak You've never seen LOTR? You've never lived!
@Suraj Nayak main characters of Lord of the rings who fought against Orcs lol
"Now... Let us hunt some Orc!" Aragorn, Lord of the Rings.
It could easily be a galactic civilization giving off massive amounts of radio signals.
I suppose it is very basic, but wondering if these ORCs coincide at all with the rings detected in the CMB about 10 years ago?
Seems logical to the "uneducated" (me), that there is only radio wavelength appearing, because it is so ancient, that it redshifted from everything else, much like the CMB. Could be some phenomena not much after the big bang that could have caused this?
Anyways, just random thoughts, interesting topic as always, keep up the good work Anton! :) I'm a fan! :)
No. Baryon Acoustic Oscillations are distinguishable by average galaxy distance. Good thinking though, it’s probably the first thing they compared to try and explain the observation.
These are created by savage, warlike, green-skinned species of humanoids who possess physiological features of both animals and fungi who are spread all across the Milky Way Galaxy.
Orcs generate a potent psychic gestalt field that allows them to accomplish many feats of technological engineering that might otherwise seem impossible. At the same time, the power of this psychic field is directly proportional to the number of greenskins present in a given location.
The more Orcs that gather, the more Orcs are drawn to them, at the same time that the power and intelligence of the greenskins begins to grow with their numbers.
They are seen by their enemies (pretty much everyone else in the universe) as savage, violent, and crude, but they are the most successful species in the whole galaxy, outnumbering possibly every other intelligent starfaring species, even Humanity (with the very plausible exception of the Tyranids).
Спасибо, Антон, очень интересная тема! Сложно вообразить что же за явление должно произойти, чтобы появились столь огромные образования.
такая ограниченность в спектре больше всего удивляет, это как-то неестественно
Exactly!
Huh, what are they!? New things! Cool video Anton.
That’s funny, don’t signal jammers do something similar? I’m not saying aliens but...
I was thinking the same thing lol
It definitely aliens, no other explanation will I accept 😁
@@CT-1214 imagine if they know what kind of technology we use and totally laugh amongst each other about the way our civilization went “there probbaly saying, eww radio waves??”
So where would the signal jamming be emitted from, here or there?
@@cadenrolland5250 from the aliens hidden in the orc cloud lol
Anton I love your videos, I stay till the end to watch your smile!! :-)
It's just some alien radiostations. Non-visible, but visible in the radiowave :)
Vibrational supernovas? New stars? Bombs? Hmmm or a tear in space? Good stuff Anton!
Astronomers always seem to find something to ORCUPY their time.
A leftover puff/cluster of something that collapsed? Space magma because it almost looks like the heat signature of the magma chamber below Yellowstone? Space bubbles overlapping? Space jellyfish? :) Thank you for bringing this mystery to us.
I know it's not this, but the first thing that popped into my head was the galactic barrier from Star Trek.
Star Trek,. Star Track,.. Train Tracks are often Gated,. STAR GATE?.! :O !! OOOOH!
LOL
It's the nexus
There's actually what might be considered a "firewall" at the edge of our galaxy, if I'm not mistaken.
@@JamesLoweryHypnotherapy Absolutely, like a Solar Wind 'Glacial Moraine' as the charged particles lose velocity, they 'condense' and create a sort of spherical 'shell' of unexpected energy! ;)
@@WoodysAR Thank you. I appreciate it. I couldn't remember.
Thanks , Anton , for bring this kind of discovery to the common people like me
I suspect they emit many different types of energy; we are just unable to detect them.
I like that theory~👍
The emissions are the exhaust from a Tantalus Drive Core when a ship becomes zero mass. Hi, i'm Commander Shepard and this is my favourite radio bubble on the Citadel !!

You might put an object of passion somewhere in the area behind the camera and focus your wonderful intentions while delivering your information. Your voice will change to effectively reach your object. I notice your voice is tremendously considerate perhaps it is what I enjoy so much about you.Most Wonderful Person.
We have to admit, ORCs it is a good nickname, so much better than "PP CYCLES" LOL
If they always look like circles from all directions, then they are spherical. Thin spheres always look like rings. Even soap bubbles are more colorful towards the edge since you see right through the centers.
"something we can't even imagine right now"
LoL! Most people can't even grasp how big a continent is, never mind anything larger. When we start talking astronomical events, we might as well be speaking in tongues.
I'm calling it: They are related to the mergers of (probably supermassive) black holes, either with other black holes, or with neutron stars.
We are probably living within one right now, but it's so relatively weak and diffuse (since our SMBH is not huge like some others) we haven't detected it yet.
After converting the emission to audio the researcher hears “WAAAGH!”...
It's obvious these are radio beacons developed by an interstellar race and the only reason they seem symmetrically circular is that they are spinning and that they follow the physics and the golden ratio, which means that as radio signals spread, they lose energy exponentially from their point of origin, much like a snail shell design, but due to their fast spin, the more closer signals from the source are more condensed. Imagine a cross section of a snail shell spinning incredibly fast, the closer walls section of the snail shell would blur into a circular shape, and the the further apart the sections grew the more it would look like a circle with further and further rings around a defined circle with every further circle becoming fainter and fainter.
Their shock waves leftover from vaporized black holes
@Time Bandit
I’d imagine it would be another spatial dimension, but I doubt it would be a time dimension, because it would have to go somewhere in time to maintain the conservation of energy of the universe.
And if it exploded into another universe, it wouldn’t just be producing radio waves.
I wonder if it could be a quasar aimed at us from an extremely long distance. The radio wave signature could be the only thing we can see because all the energy has dissipated into its slowest variant, which are radio waves.
If scientists were politicians: "It doesn't fit our theories - discard the data!"
Alas, science is not immune from this tendency either. Controversial studies get funding pulled and scientists get ostracised for challenging orthodoxy. See James Watson, the dna guy
Anton, thank you for commenting on the ultra wide variety of space and other type of interesting subjects and anomalies. NASA should take note of you and offer you a nice job there.
I love a good mystery.....
Some people, somewhere...have really managed to create the ultimate fire mixtape. Now their whole corners of the universe have become the mixtape. Purely one type of radiation. Purely the mixtape. Absolute fire.
Add your titles in comment so we can also create it and evolve into pure fire mixtape energy and become perfection.

I'm allergic to thrown tomatoes.
I just love this channel.
At least they are not slinging hot balls at the sun. We should feel safe.
check back along a rotational axis to see if there is a 'twin' out there, perhaps these are the last 'ashes' of a galactic jet. 10:09, on the left side of the photo there is a 'circular' object hot with energetic outburst. but let the outburst end, and the remaining glow from the big blow is a spherical/circular radio object
The images are very similar to that of M87. OK! It's only in radio frequencies but the structure is virtually the same. Isn't it?
i'm thinking in order for the energy, size and considerable lack of entropy, this has to be something involving a reverse flow of time. so, maybe this will help us understand supermassive black holes and indeed relativity itself a bit better. imagine for a moment, an smbh needs to have an equal amount of tidal force from the galaxy as it's own gravitational field exerts on it's aperture and time. when the combined tidal forces drop below this threshold, the aperture and size of the gravitational field swells until equilibrium. however, since the field strength and mass will remain the same while this process takes place, time itself is cached from the space the field is expanding into. and the wider gravitational field of the galactic plane is pulled inward proportional to the time which is captured & because this occurs instantly for any area of space crossing the transition zone, a bow wave of disrupted time is then emitted back outward across the galactic plane. yielding a non linear gravity value with the largest differential to nominal gravity existing at the boundary of the smbh field. this differential would be imperceptible one star system to another but becomes relevant at radial 1 ranges.
when there is no longer enough matter in the galaxy to provide sufficient tidal force, the process occurs until the total energy of the gravitational field, throughout the existence of the blackhole is exceeded via the volume of time cached + time1 while this is happening. at this point the size of the field collapses (perhaps instantly) and the field strength remains the same, mass remains the same until time is bent to -0.999999999999999 its constant but now, the field strength drops and the mass is emitted as individual atoms (any weak nuclear force is repelling) and thermodynamic entropy is reversed, which means nothing electromagnetic emitted (yet) this process results in atoms emitted in a very focused manner and it isn't until the mass is evenly distributed from the point of collapse that time begins to straighten and when time finally reaches a positive value again the atoms begin to emit electromagnetic frequencies, eventually the latency of the entropy catches up also (remember these guys were pure energy and data not so long ago) and they will begin to re-establish emissions in other appropriate frequencies but by this point they are scattered so far no nebulae form and no visible light is emitted.
the circles are there because they represent a very specific goldilocks zone where time has reached a state consistent enough with the nominal that the other disrupted properties can return to normal. it's a sad existence for the matter, waiting like that hoping another galaxy will drift close enough to start the whole process again.
much love anton
Radio Galaxies are the new frontier, I can’t wait tell we find XMRadio Galaxies. It might be tomorrow, Who knows? Space out!
I remember that blue cloud-thingy in an episode of Star Trek. It was actually talking to the Enterprise.
There’s a real easy way to test if this is aliens.
Send a telescope thousands of lightyears away from earth and point them at ourselves. If it looks similar, boom, we defied physics and found aliens. I’d call that a good day.
Theory, could this be a example of a black hole evaporation from an earlier point in the universe's time?
Love your channel and the information that you provide cheers for you hope 2021 has lots of great new science for us all. ✌🏻

Surely the apparent circular structure is produced by our view through the limb of a sphere?

I don't know how you can make any conclusions about such lo res images. However, if they were empty spheres you may see more material at the edges because perspective lines up more physical material at the edges. The front and back being one instance, and the edges being a lot of instances of the gas where they may add the signal.
Probably is a remnant or like an fingerprint of the first stars in the universe?
Wormholes, hum? I like that idea! 😃
