[greendb7]

head hurts..

[Presto]

Mind blasting! There's been other variations of this kind of video, but it still amazes me every time. We are not even a drop in this ocean called the universe!!

[keifun]

Earth is so tiny and insignificant in the whole entire universe!

Awesome Video yo!:thumbsup:

[optiblue]

we can't be alone! probability won't allow it!

[orange7]

we can't be alone! probability won't allow it!

yup..

i'm pretty sure we're not the only living creatures that jerk off to Japanese porn

[Culture_Vulture]

tripppppppppy

[ShadowBun]

for some reason felt a chill when video was zooming out to the outer boundaries.

then I thought of Halo and bang. back to reality of 21st century.

[hk20000]

yup..

i'm pretty sure we're not the only living creatures that jerk off to Japanese porn

can't wait until we meet tentacle monsters.

[skyxx]

Yeah, when they arrive the japanese will capture it and make live action tentacle porn.

my brain just exploded

good vid, but this one puts things into perspective O_o

The Empty Areas Where We Have Yet To map

kinda freaky

[skyxx]

^What if I said there are more than one universe. Would that freak you out more? :lol

[StylinRed]

freaky as in we have no idea whats there, what if theres like a giaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaant monstrous meteor on a collision path with us thats travelling at like the speed of light and will be here on 2012!! :D

if its by 2012, they would have spotted it by now

Not if it is traveling at the speed of light ;)

:thumbsup: and string theory says there's 11 dimensions of space and time (not just the 3 directional dimensions and time as the 4th).

michio kaku is awesome, im going to start reading his books, his way of explaining physics makes it easier to understand.

and here is the documentary about Parallel Universe, really good to watch

if only bacteria had our intelligence..this would probably how they feel about our world.

[shenmecar]

wooooooooooooooooooooooo good brain exercise during the olympic break.

[q0192837465]

So is there anything outside the "cosmic horizon"?

[orange7]

^
ya..

there are a lot of horny virgin jap chicks outside the cosmic horizon.
first one there gets to cum all he wants :D

[q0192837465]

^is that where they keep those 72 virgins? :p

[Kamui712]

To understand the big universe, we need to also understand things at the quantum level...

at 5:48 on.. lol gave me a headache the first time I watched it.

This guy's awesome, i bought his books after watching this series.

Maybe or maybe not, but being realistic there probably is more out there that technology can not yet detect. It's the same thing as saying that we are the only intelligent species and that only our planet is capable of harboring life; If people believe this then your saying that if we decide to grow a garden and we throw a bunch of seeds out only 1 of those seeds will grow? I don't believe it, but if it were true... then what a waste of cosmic space.

here's another one of my favourites: showing our relative scale to the largest star in the known universe

[fliptuner]

Just watched all the series posted. Fascinating!!!

[hk20000]

I wish Earth was bigger so that there'd still be "massively unchartered land"

that's what makes adventure stories interesting, isn't it? haha.

The narrator of the video wrote some books, his name is Brian Greene.

-The Elegant Universe
-The Fabric of the Cosmos

Have both of them, they're great books.

If you really want to understand about the universe, you don't have to go far. The knowledge is within your mind. ;)

[haymura]

I believe there are other life that exist on other planets but i dont think they are green bugged-eyed midgets or banana heads with sharp teeths or even insect looking pig with cornrows. I think its just the same as us humans in every shape or form but maybe their bodies differ from ours to an extent. Remember, human nature adapts to its environment and evolve.

as for the video showing how tiny our galaxy is compared to the whole universe... im just speechless. we think saturn or jupiter is already massive but who knows what else is out there. planets the size of 10 suns!, suns the size of 100 planets!

here's what boggles my mind sometimes and id like to share my theory with you.
What if... when we die, we actually just move on to a different planet? having the knowledge we have right now but not being able to do anything about it since there is no way for us to contact planets light years away. for all you know, people who past away are just in another planet thinking how would they communicate with you, telling you that they are still alive. Maybe aliens are actually someone's relative who is searching for his family and once found, takes them away, maybe knowing of the impending danger this earth has. people who claim to have been abducted saw human shaped species. maybe they just exagerrated big eyed, or big head, since they only see shadowy figures from the bright light of the ship. Also, the whole "i got probed or experimented" claims may not actually be what they think it is. For all we know they are curing whatever sickness or problems the abducted one has before getting transported to the new planet to prevent any spreading.

think about it....

Yea, that sounds interesting, but there is absolutely no scientific evidence of that sort of thing.
How would our bodies move to other planets after we die?
Doesn't make sense.
It's a good concept for a science fiction movie tho.

[q0192837465]

With that scale, how would anyone ever find us. Even if there are space travelling aliens out there, what are the chances of finding our super tiny planet out of all the other planets in the universe?

[LiquidTurbo]

^

Yep. Pretty much. SETI is stupid. (They monitor for foreign radiowaves). Radiowaves travel at the speed of sound, so how do they expect to find intelligence? Even in our own galaxy, their radiowaves wouldn't even come close to reaching us now.

You mean at the speed of light?

I'd say SETI is worth it if we pick up a signal from intelligent life forms within a couple hundred years. Lets us know that there is someone else out there and gives us a drive to make contact with them.

The Earth is only so big, space is the future and we need to start looking.

So many questions.. unanswered. :(

I was wondering how long it would take for Warp 9 to travel across from our galaxy...
and it will still take about 5 years from one end to the other at warp 9 speed, which according to wikipedia is 22000 times faster then the speed of light

Please do some research the next time you want to go on waxing poetically about the universe.

Our sun is a MILLION times bigger than the earth.

Warp 9... in Star Trek Voyager, it was predicted that Janeway would need 75 years to complete the journey from the Delta Quadrant (the other side of the milky way) back to Earth at warp 9.75, so it would take at least several hundred years I would say to do it at Warp 9 (since warp factors are exponential)
