    9:05 The Moon once again takes one for the team. 🩶
    9:43 Holy moly you can see the impact fireball from Earth
    15:34 Comet rise, super cool.
    15:00 Poor Moon. No1 cares. :(
    25:55 Ejecta grain size and deposit thickness models approach the impactor antipodes. That's a wall of blazing hot ejecta 10 to 100 meters high (1.5 giraffes to 25 stories tall for us Muricans), going...idk how fast that is. Probably too fast to see coming.
    38:30 Moon basically starts turning inside out.
    49:01 Moon's crust is melting
    1:10:03 Crust stabilizes and starts cooling again. Seriously, that was WILD. Also wow the Moon is amazingly stable for its size.
    2:05:11 The Moon has bad skin but we stan her anyway. 🩶

    The fact that Earth wasn't safe from these giant impacts suggests that asteroids hundreds of kilometers in diameter had struck the Earth every once in a while during the Late Heavy Bombardment 4 Billion years ago.

    • @irenafarm
      @irenafarm ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Planetary mechanics are like actual sorcery to me, but I thiiiiiink??? that for most of the accretion phase, there wouldn't be an "impact." It would either drop into earth's gravity well or just keep going.
      From what I understand about the Moon, current thinking posits that the post-Theia-impact accretion happened quite rapidly. Possibly because the Moon is (probably) just a big glob that was burped up from the merger of two already stable planets.
      I haven't looked it up, but I'd bet an entire donut that this high degree of inherited stability saved the Moon during this GIANT impactor event.
      I'd love so much to do geological data collection work on the Moon, and Mars. Alas! I'm definitely aged out of that chance.

  • @MagnumForce51
    @MagnumForce51 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +11

    You should try and simulate the impact that created the moon. From what I've read a Mars sized planet impacted the Earth close to 5 billion years go that eventually led to the creation of the moon. That one would be an interesting one. I think Earth had a ring system for maybe a million years before it clumped into what is now the Moon. Maybe less. I forget the time table for that so that part you probably couldn't show in real time. We'd all be dead by the time it finished. :P
    I'm curious what Earth looked like before this impact...since the entire surface was pretty much molten afterwards it's not surprising we don't really have any evidence of stuff before the impact as it was all destroyed. If life existed before this event it was likely killed/reset and forced to start again. Not even bacteria hidden a few miles in the crust in cracks/vents and such would have survived as the entire crust was pulverized/heated into something not much different then the mantle beneath it.

    • @DZam-ct8eg
      @DZam-ct8eg 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Earth was still a molten mess when it collided with Theia, that Mars sized planet your talking about here and Earth would ultimately remain molten for nearly a billion years and after things cooled down is when life first emerged.
      Also, showing that event in real time would most likely be given its own special playlist as not just the impact itself, but the subsequent earthquake and ejecta created would have lasted for several days if not weeks and maybe even an entire month or 2 due to Theia being as big as Mars.
      So a simulation of Theia's collision with Earth would probably be split up into hundreds of 10 hour long videos.

    • @cryoraptora303tm2

    Some of these values are a question of metaphysics: What is the magnitude of the earthquake if the ground you were standing on was ejected 500km into space? What is the thickness of ejecta deposit, if the ground 300km away folded over and landed on top of you? Its a philosophical discussion, not a scientific one.

    I was expecting the other side of the Moon to bulge horrendously from such impact, there was supposed to be some giant peak on the opposite side of the sphere generated by the humongous seismic wave.
