Space is a bleak, hostile environment. Asteroid strikes, supernovae and gamma ray bursts could wipe us out at any moment. But could certain parts of the galaxy be more dangerous than others? And could this explain why we live, when and where we live?
Written and presented by Prof David Kipping, guest starring Jackson Kipping and edited by Jorge Casas.

This was a really cool video! When I was taking a senior level astrophysics course I did a project where I calculated metallicity changes in the sun if it was placed at the current location of the ejecta from SN 1987a using some basic assumptions. Even then the change was relatively small compared to the mass of the sun, so I’m not surprised that most of the galaxy is habitable in that regard. Seeing the galactic habitable zone when considering gamma ray events was quite terrifying in contrast to be honest.
@joz6683
@joz6683 Рік тому
I wonder if we could scale this up to Universal Habitable Zones. Some galaxies are too big and have too many dangers, high rates of supernovae, and close encounters with other stars. Some galaxies are too small, with a low percentage of heavier elements needed for life. Some Galactic clusters have too many members that collide with each other, which could disrupt stars within each galaxies. Too few members might be a problem, with few galactic encounters that would not add new gas to existing galaxies. Just a thought, thanks for another great video.

On a fully universal scale the universe looks basically identical and symmetrical no matter how you look at it. If there’s calculable zones of habitability it likely can’t stretch any further than galactic clusters

@Chompchompyerded Рік тому
It could also be that there is also a habitable time when looking at the entire universe. Obviously life could not have formed at the moment of the big bang, and probably it could not have for quite some time afterwards either. Also, the more the universe expands, the more diffuse it should become, which would mean that eventually rocky planets would not be able to form. It's entirely possible that we are not only in a Goldie Locks zone, but also in a Goldie Locks time.

It is my unfortunate privilege to have once had a capable mind...but before I was able to do anything useful with it my brain came down with an extremely rare form of tumor that was about 1/5th my total brain in size. I had some incredible doctors...but there are some things that even skill can not overcome. The most frustrating aspect for myself though...the loss of languages. I used to be able to read and speak in...I think...eight different languages. Now I am down to only portions of english. Even food items in exotic tongues have lost meaning for me.

G'day Prof. Kipping! 👋 I'm currently completing my BA of Archeology. As part of my archaeology degree, I'm doing some electives in Astronomy, as not only is it a personal passion, but ties into archaeoastronomy; which can be used in some regards to give further insight into ancient cultures. The other week I was privileged to take part in a public lecture with Dr. Jessie Christiansen, who is also researching exoplanets and who I believe you may be familiar with. I just wished to express my heartfelt gratitude for people such as yourself and Dr Christiansen who share this knowledge and passion with the rest of us in our pursuit of understanding our cosmos. The idea of supernovae playing a part in extinction events is something I also consider as a budding archaeologist. When i hear your sign off words in these videos, I am always reminded of the late Carl Sagan and the same values of knowledge, curiosity and love he shared with the world. Thank you 🙏

I'd love a deeper dive into planet retention in binary and 2+ star systems, and also in clusters. I know that more close stars mean higher chances of wonky orbits, but also that we've found planets in binary systems... I'd be curious to know the state of research on the likelihood of multiple-star systems and stellar clusters to retain planets over time.

@Cool Worlds As always a wonderful video! You say in the video about the metal enriched regions and not metal enriched regions of the galaxy forming gamma ray bursts. I never thought about the distribution of elements in the galaxy before. I wonder if there could be a correlation of the potential of intelligent live based on the availability of certain elements.

New subscriber. Love that you take for granted your audience is well educated - and do not waste (my) time explaining ie the origin of the Hubble space telescope - as so many other science videos to - before you tell me of the discoveries. Fascinating stuff, good show. Thank you.

Thank you for the video CWL Now, about that last statement, I see the galactic habitable zone as something worth looking into. No matter how much mediocre we are, the fact is, we are so far, alone in the universe, and that is weird... why is a very important question, and that could be one of the several hundreds or thousands of pieces of the puzzle to aswer that... so, if jovian world is needed to shield an smaller rocky planet, sure, metallicity is important. If too much GRBs or SNs are bad for life development, again, better be away from them. I don't think that any priciple, even the mediocracy principle, should be too relevant when trying to undestand what is going on... I mean, to say, facts are more important, and we need to gather more data... and when you have nothing or close to nothing, any leads are good to be followed, right? well, I'm probably all wrong for a variety of reasons... have a nice day everyone.

Wait but what’s the chance that those pencil beams hit your system/planet exactly?
@Robert_McGarry_Poems
@Robert_McGarry_Poems Рік тому
Didn't we just record such an event recently? Albeit the beam must have come from extremely far away, and I guess it might not have been a direct hit, but it did occur... Meep! I find this in a search: GRB 221009A - swept over Earth on Oct. 9, 2022. It saturated gamma-ray detectors on multiple space telescopes, earning the nickname the BOAT, short for "brightest of all time."

Translation: We in the astrophysics community have a lot of conflicting theories about the layout of habitual zones of our galaxy, but most of them are essentially just conjecture till we know more, and we don't know a lot about it at this present time.

Very cool. I’d be interested to see a video on how quasars effect their galaxy and neighboring galaxies. Anton just did a video on a radio galaxy just had its black hole flip it’s axis 90 degrees and is now pointed at is. A video on the effects of that type of event would also be cool to cool to know. Since some of these create some of the largest structures in the universe, I’m sure the impact would be unimaginably devastating to potential life out there. Again, very good video.

As always from my favourite UKposts channel by far, this is a fascinating and beautifully and clearly presented dive into cosmic majesty and mystery. Jackson is extremely fortunate to have such an inspiring dad. What seems most incomprehensible to me is that one beam of gamma radiation from a core-collapsing supernova can produce 10 THOUSAND TIMES more energy in a short burst than the entire Milky Way does continuously! It would have helped me to 'wrap my head around' this brain-searing fact if the professor had explained the mechanism whereby such intense gamma radiation is produced.
