You mean where Colbert has to be there? No thanks. Star Talk is better suited to your needs.

The Universe with Neil

It's amazing how many people don't get the difference. "Space" is a place and "Orbit" is an activity you can do in that place. Just because you walked into a library doesn't mean you read a book. Just because you went to the ice rink doesn't mean you actually skated. Tyson's definition of the Karman line "where the sky turns black" isn't right and it's just keeping it simple for the TV audience, but he's quite right that Bezos's rocket doesn't go to orbit, and merely popping straight up to space and back down again is a hell of a lot simpler and less impressive than orbit. It only takes about one fifth as much delta-v.

where Outerspace starts is one of those weird ones like where does the Atlantic and pacific it's just one of those one we all have to agree on

You also have issues like that atmospheric thickness varies

I liked "in space nobody can hear you scream", which puts the threshold at the level where density is too low to support sound. That's 160 km.

So?

Mr. Madison, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

No vacuum. Her skull is solid bone, and sound travels faster through solids. ;-)

Hearing is dependent on the matter OUTSIDE one's head. It's LISTENING that is dependent on the matter INSIDE one's head, and the area in which MTG and her ilk are clearly deficient.

She lives on earth where there isn’t a vacuum so sounds can be heard. Just because you can hear sounds doesn’t mean you’re intelligent. Maybe you’re on par with Marjories intellect

If Colbert knew some physics and history he wouldn't let Tyson get away with his bull shit. I've watched Neil drop a steaming load like telling Stephen that Newton invented calculus on a dare or that he explained elliptical orbits before he turned 26. Tyson will fee Stephen addled bull shit and Stephen thinks he's a genius. Just like most of Tyson's audience.

@@HopDavid link us your findings

@@Big_Wamu UKposts is filtering my comments if they contain links. But you can hear Tyson outline his history of Newton in the BigThink Video "My man, Sir Isaac Newton". Tyson tells us a friend asked Newton why do planets move in elliptical orbits? Newton says I don't know and comes back two months later with the answer. And then Newton turns 26. It was in Principia that Newton explained elliptical orbits. And it was Halley's famous question that prompted Newton to write Principia. Halley asked the question in 1684 when Newton was in his 40s. So, no, didn't happen before he turned 26. Tyson also got the question wrong, Newton's answer wrong and the time frame wrong. It took Newton somehat longer than two months. You can learn more by Googling "Did Newton Answer Halley's Question?" Thony Christie also disemboweled Tyson addled history in his piece "Why doesn't he just shut up?" Nearly everything Tyson says about Newton is addled nonsense.

I've been watching Star Trek for some time now.

@@accam6734 I mean...I watch "Star Trek" too.

The loophole is "galaxy far, far away". There could be a galaxy with enough interstellar medium, even invisible, that sound propagates. Anyway, that's my theory.

@@EmpyreanLightASMR Even a small nebula with the density of Mars's atmosphere (1% that of Earth's and probably the bare minimum density for ANY sound-waves to propagate at all), would collapse into a star or brown dwarf under its own gravity within only a few millennia.

@@AceSpadeThePikachu So what you're telling me is the galaxy in Star Wars is a nebula that will collapse into a brown dwarf, so everyone in SW is miniature in scale? That's actually a really cool hypothesis that I bet no one's thought of! Not even kidding. Btw, great point, I'm no mathematician but it would make sense to calculate the density of the galaxy (in this case) and find out what happens then.

So right Hwang. Very observant. 🥳🎉

I wish Colbert would call out Neil's rants against religion. For example Tyson's tale of how Newton just stopped because he had God on the brain. According to Tyson an agnostic Newton could have easily done Laplace's n-body mechanics in an afternoon. After all -- Newton invented calculus *and* explained elliptical orbits on a dare! In two months! All before Newton turned 26. Halley's "dare" was made in 1684 when Newton was in his 40s. So, no, Newton didn't invent calculus and write Principia on a dare before he turned 26. And he didn't do all this in two months all on his own. He had a lot of help. Tyson compresses decades of collaborative efforts into two months and claims Newton did it all on his own. Nor did Newton just stop. Again and again Newton returned to the the problem of n-body mechanics. Specifically attempting to model the 3-body system of the sun, earth and moon. Neil's claim is demonstrably false from the get go. After Newton tried Euler worked on the problem. As did Lagrange and d'Alembert. Laplace built on 100 years of work by Newton and these great mathematicians. So when Neil tells you perturbation theory is just a simple extension of calculus that Newton could have done in an afternoon -- that's Neil's way of telling you he doesn't know shit about perturbation theory. And there are other false histories Tyson uses to claim that religion stifles progress in math and science. Tyson's tales regarding George Bush, Copernicus, and Hamid al Ghazali are equally addled. Why doesn't Colbert challenge Tyson? I believe it's because Colbert puts being politically fashionable ahead of his faith.

@@TheGollyLlama Right. Short, feel good sound bites. Don't Look Up did a great portrayal of our media circus. Tyson was interviewing director Adam McCay and commenting the film was a documentary. And Tyson's right. But what Tyson and McKay don't seem to be aware of is that they are part of the media circus. As is Colbert. We live in a culture that values celebrity and entertainment more than truth. Tyson and Trump are flip sides of the same coin. Colbert has beautiful suits and his hair styling is immaculate. I will give him that.

@@TheGollyLlama I expect Tyson to remain a source of misinformation. And I expect nobody on the hairspray talk show circuit will challenge Neil. So, no, I don't expect them to be someone other than who they choose to be.

@@TheGollyLlama Colbert has time to call out Trump's falsehoods. But no time to call out the politically fashionable.

Compared to the poorest places on earth, you have a surplus of money and time to pay for internet and take leisure activities. Why don’t you send your money to those places? Oh right, it’s because you earned it and want to keep what you worked for.

Or amazon if the workers had bathroom breaks to allow for better productivity and averted the desire to sabotage the rockets to explode the moment Bezos tries to take a leak while riding his pe*is rocket to the Karman line.

Easy because if you have money you can make your own rules and make up your own truths We've known this for a while now

This was the first I'd heard that definition too. I think he made it up to just dumb it down. In StarTalk, he goes off on how we can have a "line" where you're one moment not in space, and the next in space; but by his definition here, he's saying you're one moment in blue sky, next moment in black sky; and then he negates the whole thing by mentioning the blue fading away. It's not his best moment, but this is a talk show afterall

@@EmpyreanLightASMR It's a lot better than some of his gaffes. LIke saying carbon is the only element that burns. Or that the James Webb Space Telescope is parked in earth's shadow. There's a long list. It's demoralizing so many put this pop science celebrity on a pedestal.

@@EmpyreanLightASMR I assumed the "line" he initially referred to was what appears to be a line when viewed from a great distance.

I don't know either definition, but it is possible that both are correct? That the technical definition you gave is technically correct, but perhaps it coincides with the point of change he described? In which case he was describing it in a way that the public could visualize it and understand it, whereas the technical definition still leaves us scratching our heads.

@@leavingitblank9363 I would expect the sky to turn black lower than 50 miles. Tyson just made up this definition and it's likely wrong.

Except that a lot of his explanations are wrong.

Yes, he really is informative, however, this dude annoyingly LOVES to hear himself talk and keeps patting himself on the back. There is other more modest scientists that just want to give the information to the world and are not worried about sounding like the smartest dude to ever exist. It really gets annoying. Also there is strong evidence that he basically calls art degree students idiots. Like art has no place in this world. I think he is a douche myself. "I am an astrophysicist, I am an astrophysicist!" We get it dude.

You think Tyson's a reliable source of correct info? Sorry to break it to you but much of his math, science and history are wrong. You're no nerd. Rather a poser nerd wannabe.

We eventually have to look for other planets to colonize as our civilisation grows. We would need more resources and Earth isn't safe from the threats coming from outer space. We would not be alive to witness humans accomplishing interstellar travel (if humans last that long) but perhaps it's better.

I think that’s a bit apples and oranges. Ultimately our issues with industries are going to need to be changed with a planetary shift in government regulations and funding. It’s mostly a policy issue, as well as an issue with money from the fossil fuel industry among others filling the pockets of politicians. Let SpaceX and the others focus on advancing our space capabilities, they are not the problem in this equation.
