    I've always felt the same way while staring up into the night sky while camping. On a clear, moonless night far from any town and above 10,000 feet here in Colorado, you get some awe-inspiring night skies. Sometimes if I look too long and really think hard about the time and distances involved, it almost makes me queasy. Then a shooting star will whoosh by and make me smile.

      @Nicole Jessica You r on to something true here,there Is a TV show called Project Blue Book that airs on the History Channel that tells the story of a couple that were abducted,the man drew the entire star system from memory but yet had no recollection he drew It and did not know what It meant just keeps repeating In his mind driving him crazy until he forced his way by gun point onto an Army base to talk to 2 special people hired by the government to investigate UFO cases and purposely debunk them,I don't want to give to much away but i think It's the 2nd to the last episode of season 1 and It's a must watch tv series,hope you reply to me on this.

    This was the first messier object I ever spotted. Where i live, they're almost directly over my house (little strenuous on the neck). I first noticed an odd, faint group of stars. Did some reading and came across this video and channel a few weeks ago. I'm hooked now lol

  • @MegaKingMP
    @MegaKingMP 8 ปีที่แล้ว +47

    I started looking the night sky 6 months ago, and I took my brother outside when it was very dark, at least where we live. Pleiades was sort of horrifying to him, since we've never payed attention to stars. The cluster makes you feel sort of uneasy at its detail, like it's only a few miles away. I'm going to get a telescope and go to a place a few hours away which is known for its darkness in a few weeks, so he's going to be REALLY terrified of the Milky Way.

      While in Iraq, I discovered you could view the night sky with a lot more clarity. The stars seemed to be much more evident. The cosmos is an amazing creation. I don't know that I'd label it as terrifying, but probably more like awesome or grandiose.

    Awesome video, Brady.
    Daytime Binoculars tend to be 7x35, 8x40, or 10x50, but good night time binoculars would be 7x50, or 10x70, where these have a bigger aperture, bringing in more light. If my eyes were not so messed up, I would have had 7x50 binoculars, that would bring in more faint objects than my 10x50.

    If you don't have a tracking mount, then it would.
    A rule of thumb is to divide 600 by the (effective) focal length of your lens, and you will have how many seconds you can expose, before you get noticable trailing.

    One of the first observations I made as an amateur astronomer was of the Pleiades cluster, and I must say I was amazed by how simple, yet beautiful it was. Seeing such high res images of these things just inspires me further, the beauty of the universe is truly boundless.
    I found it interesting as, at first, I used a lower exposure time on my camera, and the formation of the stars I could see looked something akin to a butterfly or dragonfly. Looking forward to more of the Messier catalog!

    Considering it must have been there my whole life, it was weirdly recently that I actually saw the 'seven' sisters (I saw enough to recognise the 'dipper' shape and maybe one more?), and it was quite an awe-inspiring experience to just casually be looking up at the night sky and go "... wait, hang on, that's a star cluster up there".

    Yes, completely. I took images of Jupiter a few month ago with a camera with good zoom. No telescope and not even a SLR, but with a 420mm zoom lens and a sturdy tripod. Everything above 3 SECONDS already left visible streaks. I still managed to see the Galilean moons of Jupiter (compared it with calculated positions to make sure I didn't pick up background stars or camera noise).
    But without a automated mount I guess you'll be out of luck with any long exposure.

    May I ask you is there anything special about CorTauri(Alphastar?)? Why if one tries to calculate the distance from an (university) telescope one (ok, that's me!) gets different distances? is there a possibility of a konkave time sheet inbetween (String th) that makes it everytime different?

    The Pleiades are a young group of starst they say at the beginning of the vid. Towards the end, it is stated that in a few million years it will be six sisters and then less and less because the stars will either blow up or fade away (I could not quite make out what they supposed to do, sorry). That puzzles me. Such young stars with such a short lifespan must mean that theay are supergiant stars. They should be becoming hypernova's. That kind of stars is very rare nowadays. They were common at the early stages of the universe. However, I don't think that that is meant here. So, what is it?

      they are burning fast and furious, its not all about size, the type of star(what it has for fuel, lacks for fuel) also determines what happens in its life and death.

    When ou looked at Pleiades with the binoculars, what country were you in? Venus looks huge, I've never seen Venus before as I'm in Greece.

      You can see Venus just fine from Greece.

      mrspidey80 yes! I've seen Venus many times lately now in December, at evening, Venus stands a little under Mars, and they are both visible!! They are just a little to the left of Vega.

    Here in Houston the light pollution is so bad it's a challenge to locate with the naked eye. But it looks awesome through binoculars!

    That bull is giving chase, ha ha! One chases the Pleiades, the other the Lorelei. Either way, that love triangle is always haunting me.

    That's why I put the word wrong in quotation marks. I know it's not actually wrong, I was just having a lighthearted back-and-forth with Dathadorne.

    Technically, the British spell it "wrong":
    aluminum (n.)
    1812, coined by English chemist Sir Humphry Davy (1778-1829), from alumina, name given 18c. to aluminum oxide, from L. alumen "alum" (see alum). Davy originally called it alumium (1808), then amended this to aluminum, which remains the U.S. word, but British editors in 1812 further amended it to aluminium, the modern preferred British form, to better harmonize with other metallic element names (sodium, potassium, etc.).
