    The original Limits of Humanity: • How Far Can We Go? Lim...
    Is there a border we will never cross? Are there places we will never reach, no matter how hard we try? It turns out, there are. Even with sci-fi technology, we are trapped in a limited pocket of the Universe and the finite stuff within it. How much universe is there for us and how far can we go?

    Hey Everybody! So this video is a remake and remaster of an older video that has a mistake in it. You can watch the original here: th-cam.com/video/ZL4yYHdDSWs/w-d-xo.html
    What is the mistake? In a nutshell: In the original video we said that it was PHYSICALLY impossible to leave the local group and reach other galaxy groups. That the rest of the universe is moving away from us too fast to catch up. But that’s wrong. It is not PHYSICALLY impossible to leave the Local Group, just extremely unlikely that we’ll ever do it.
    BUT: If you have a lot of time and a fast spaceship you can still get to a limited amount of galaxies - these galaxies will eventually get out of reach forever but until then, they are technically within reach. So why did we keep the video up and didn’t purge it when we deleted our addiction and refugee crisis videos?
    Well, it has to do with the nature and severity of the mistake: We did talk to a few astrophysicists to ask them what they thought and if we should take down the video. Their feedback was pretty clear, they thought it was still fine as the universe expansion things explained in the video are correct and they didn’t consider the local group thing as too major. This was actually a case of “good enough”.
    Also, back when this original upload happened, Kurzgesagt was operating at pretty tight margins and just redoing a video was not easy for us. Back then the team was small and we were fighting to put new videos out. So we just swallowed the bitter pill and kept the video around.
    But the video still bothered us, as far as we know this was the biggest unfixed mistake on the channel. Super frustrating, especially because the core idea of the video is so fascinating. The limit of our species. The actual limit. So yeah, we finally remade the video, sorry for taking this long, life got in the way.
    The original video will stay up, you can compare the two if you want to see how far we have come in a few years in terms of production quality. All in all, we could only grow the channel and work on getting better because of direct support from you guys. So thank you for that. - Philipp

    Having full transparency is simply refreshing and is why I value the content you create.
    Mistakes are in fact unavoidable especially with such complicated topics and in-depth science.
    Which as we all know is evolving over time as more technological advances are developed and as a direct result more accurate information is available.
    I applaud you and I hope all platforms including the government and social media companies as a whole follow your lead and provide its constituents the same honesty.
    After all we are but monkeys with good ideas trying to figure out life's deepest and most philosophical questions and values.
    No one expects the ultimate truth; they demands the utmost honesty and humility. That can be understood, but to claim to be all knowing even after being proven wrong is just insulting.
    I one hundred percent encourage that you keep the old video up for comparison, you pin a comment for clarification; BUT also tag a link to the updated video for true transparency and be able to access the most accurate version with no confusion.
    This increases your views, as well as the quality of your connection with your audience.
    If everyone operated this way companies would be considered more reputable and believable. Well done ❤

      The universe, where we are, has a theoretical start date. I think that our universe is a newborn, microscopic speck in a random tiny area in the cosmos. And the grand cosmos itself is everything else outside of our universe. And I believe this infinitesimal cosmos is an empty, black, matter less, timeless space that forever goes in all directions eternally and is a realm that has always existed, with no beginning. And has made and housed many other universes more than trillions of quadrillions of times, throughout the trillions of quadrillions or more years ago, since the cosmos was always there ..

      But what if maybe in a few ten thousand years if we have the technology to create wormholes if that is even possible (is it?) would we be able to bend space and time to then travel to other groups so there would be no need to travel faster than light which is theoretically impossible.

    Had always relied on the philosophy of Socrates regarding death (much better than the hell and heaven of every religions out there) but guess there are holes that will never be covered by these mere philosophies.
    Based here I think we all have these answers because we rely only on one medium which is the use of light, but I think we should like to explore more on these so called dark energy in order to understand this universe even more, as we're kind of already reaching the dead end of studying this universe through that medium which is the light.

      I hope you never stop looking for truth. There is a God who loves you and sent His Son to die for you. There is evidence of Christianity. I would greatly encourage you to look into Lee Strobel's Case for Christ which details the reasons he (a former atheist) converted to Christianity through the research that he was doing to write an article (for the Chicago Tribune where he worked) to actually disprove Christianity to prove to his wife that her beliefs were juvenile and naive. Essentially he failed. Also, William Lane Craig has great resources on God and Cosmology. I understand that comment sections aren't really the greatest places for conversations on this and that your comment really wasn't about religion, and it's your decision on whether to take anything I said seriously, on what you believe in, etc. I just felt like I should leave this comment here.

      Our current view of physics is very limited to be fair, we haven’t left our own planet so we don’t even actually know of physics works the same in the rest of the universe, of corse we can test and observe as much as we’re able and we can collect all the information we can get to come to conclusions, but almost everything we know about physics isn’t final, there are so very few things we can say for absolute certainty when it comes to the laws of physics and how the universe really works that nothing we know now is final, I personally believe one day maybe once we have reached the boarder of our galaxy, if humanity, or what ever we have collectively evolved into, will find a way to surpass the limit that is the speed of light, and we will be able to illuminate the rest of the universe again, maybe by then we will have learned how to manipulate gravity in a way we will be able to pull the super cluster back together again, or simply we will learn how to cross the whole universe and see all of it, we can never really know what the future brings

Unfortunately there’s a chance that civilization ends itself or maybe an event could end all of humanity like an asteroid or a nuclear war, which would also be caused by ourselves. I think that right now we just need to focus on coming together as a species and fixing our planet and way of life so that we have a much better chance of actually achieving the goals of breaking the speed of light and such.

    It makes you wonder what the point is then. If there's an eternal limit to how far we can explore, then we'll eventually hit that limit given enough time passes. One thing that has always been at the back of my mind when thinking of meaning is that the vastness of space, especially since it is expanding (aka, making more) would be the path for humanity to keep trucking along into when everything is done/killed off from the moment prior (Earth, Sun, next planets that are explored, etc;), thereby always ensuring that prior achievements/things obtained will have it's purpose to further along that journey long after you and your future generations are gone. But since there's a limit, that we'll eventually touch everything (in an ideal world, no pun intended), then there's no new "stage" to reach for when previous stages expire, and everything in the universe has a shelf life. Therefore, what previously gave meaning as a void that would eventually open new opportunities for said moments to continue to be actualized, is now a door shut in advance which strips away any meaning humanity used to fall back on altogether.

      Not to mention; though it seems unfathomable that laws of physics can be bent or broken, as a species we are also still largely unawares of everything that's out there. Be they particles, energies and reactions. (Think of the fairly recent discovery of the Higgs-Bosun particle).
      Then there is the scientific community not knowing what happened in the first few seconds of the Big Bang, let alone what was, or wasn't there before the big bang.
      Who knows which of those discoveries might radically alter our understanding of the universe and how it might affect our own limitations in it (for better or worse).
      After all, if you explained the world of today to someone from 1921 he or she would give you some very odd looks indeed. Never mind someone from 1021 or 2021BC!
      All of this to say, life and the universe, will be full of surprises regardless.

      But what if maybe in a few ten thousand years if we have the technology to create wormholes if that is even possible (is it?) would we be able to bend space and time to then travel to other groups so there would be no need to travel faster than light which is theoretically impossible.

    This uses our current understanding to assume the limits of our reach. Truly, no one knows what the real limit will be because the bounds of knowledge and time are undefined. If humans have a definable end date or we truly could understand reality to the fullest, then we could better determine an actual limit. It would be another thing entirely to speculate that we won't live long enough to reach such an advanced understanding. Still, a well done video.
