    Supernovae are the most powerful explosions in the universe, unleashing enough energy to outshine galaxies. We have no real metaphor for their power - if the sun were to magically go supernova it would feel like you were being hit by the energy of a nuclear explosion, every second. For weeks.
    While supernovae are the engines of creation, forging the elements that enable life, they also burn sterile whole regions of galaxies. So what would happen if one hit earth?

      The only other possibility that was eliminated was a solar storm, based on the solar maximums, but it’s still possible that the sun did it, just extremely unlikely. Also other solar storms that we know of haven’t caused this effect, which means if a solar storm did do it, it was unbelievably massive.

    • @doug6531
      @doug6531 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Nothing in the solar system makes Iron-60. The sun isn't massive enough, and humans can't make it because it requires energy input from either direction, fission or fusion. Also amazing to think about, is the Iron-60 was made in the supernova...and traveled the 300 light years to earth, and arrived in enough quantity to be detectable. Also, any element heavier than Iron is only made in supernovas as well, because of the energy input required for Iron.

    • @mnxs
      @mnxs ปีที่แล้ว +139

      The reason they could figure that out is the particular _kind_ of radioactive iron that was found - iron-60. It's only produced by supernovae, and yet it's never found on Earth in mines and the like, as with its "mere" 2.6 mil years half-life, all of it would have decayed away (to cobalt-60) since the formation of the planet.

    These videos are TV quality, yet you produce these and offer them to us for free -- not on one channel, but on multiple channels, most of which required translations -- all for free. I respect you. You guys are one of the channels that make TH-cam. (DISCLAIMER BELOW, because there's a lot of debate in the replies.)
    A lot of people have taken "TV quality", to mean bad. However, I want to make it clear that I didn't mean the comment as an insult, but as a compliment. It is also important to note that I did mean streaming services, such as Netflix, not cable. Though I spend virtually no time watching either, this comment meant more so that this is quality content, that I could see becoming official rather than a TH-cam operation.
    Don't get me wrong, I enjoy TH-cam and consistently watch it, but you also have to remember that some TH-cam channels (such as this one) are more... polished, than others, especially considering that this is the same platform that has the family vloggers, and "DON'T CALL AT 3 AM!!! 😲😲" videos.

    3 questions:
    - how long has it been that humans have had this information for?
    - how does or should our evolution change now that we have this information?
    - is it worrying or not too important that humans evolved up to now pretty much without this level of understanding?
    Thanks so much for this video and for basically changing my entire worldview with all of your video content😆

    When the narrator said, "In any case, you can sleep well tonight, under the beautiful night sky", I had no choice but to look up and admire the sentence, and a smile lit up my face. This is what Kurzgesact does, time and time again, and it just never fails to remind and impress.

    I absolutely love this channel and the fact thats its free is astoundingly ,
    Kurzgesagt has fed my curiosity for eveything science, like i have almost watched all the videos on this channle, keep up tge good work
    Just know that your spiking the curiosity of this 12 year old, me,
    its so fascinating how the world is so huge , its unfathomable i literally cant explain my happiness with words that this channel even exists. like the animation , how you explain things, and everything it just makes it so interesting eye-catching, cool
    I got your book on the immune system, the word fascinating just doesn't do ot justice its so cool how many dumb things can be smart together.

    More pessimistically, there's no point in worrying if a star could immediately go supernova within 4 lightyears of us anyways. What could anyone even do?

      There's not even any stars under 4 light years away from earth. As the video points out all possible stars that could go supernova are far enough away that they don't pose much or any threat to life on earth so we're safe.

    I really do like that transition from the analogy to the suns effects on the Earth from about ~3 million light years away with the beach one and then in the next paragraph, the animation goes underneath the water of the beach into the beautiful depictions of the coral reefs to talk about how scientists are able to understand that Earth a long time ago was hit by some super novae remnants and that caused some radio active minerals (rocks) to form on or underneath the sea beds.

    There are always so many new things to learn in a Kurzgesagt Video, like I would’ve never imagined that a Supernova happening like hundreds of lightyears away can still greatly affect us here on Earth.
    Vielen Dank für eure Arbeit, Kurzgesagt Team!
