  • I Lke Your Video :-bd <33

  • Thanks for the great video

  • great video

  • If all the knowledge base of today is to be Wiped out except the statements Dr.Carey made, then in a 1000 years, humanity will be worshipping Snakes, Fearing ghouls, the hour glass will be the emblem of nations and Carey will become the Prophet of humanity.

    Stupid humans

  • hey. where's carl sagan?

  • If this is the way documentaries are going, I'll quit watching altogether.

    This is no better than trying to mend football with astronomy.

  • Astronomy is not one of the best sciences to connect to the "horror" atmosphere. Space is vastly lifeless, so attempts and creepy astronomy rely exclusively on anthropomorphism and pareidolia, and astronomy has more jargon, resulting in the guy in this vid, as another comment put it, ruining the atmosphere by sounding like a nerd.

    Astronomy should leave the "science tapping into the Halloween spirit" to the biological and human sciences. THEY can get creepy without a HINT of cheesiness

  • i agree science should stay the hell away from superstition

  • lame

  • why are people spending millions of dollars to see these galaxies when the only reason is to lear what is beyond our galaxy do we really need to know

  • DERANGED

  • "in a few million years" haha! that phrase always cracks me up...

  • hey cmon guys, its just a bit of fun. yeah its cheesy, yeah its childish and yeah its more than a little patronising.

    but lets forget the 80% nerd viewership of this series and generously accommodate the rest of the world population of intelligent people who remain to be inspired and convinced of the thrill of science and knowledge.

  • Science - whoring itself out to become popular with Twilight readers.

    Good job!

  • Based on most of the comments I see, it seems like you people have NO sense of humor whatsoever. Stop being so bitchy about the superstition that is used to present this video, people.

  • This video drips with so much cheese you could dip tortilla chips in it.

  • is this for kids or something?

  • @livebyreason No sir, i'm afraid this video is FUCKING SERIOUS BUSINESS. Hectoplasmic galaxies WILL kill you and your family. You have been warned.

  • This has been dumbed-down so much it's bordering on the illiterate. For goodness sake try to avoid this kind of childishness: the subject matter is interesting all by itself.

  • Oh right, cause science has no explanation whatsoever for anything paranormal right? wouldn't wanna come in conflict with any atheist. =\

  • Seems more like theater than science,

  • lol. he's standing in a graveyard with creepy music yet manages to ruin the atmosphere by sounding like a total nerd

  • Should have saved this one for October

    ;)

  • Personally I prefer science to stay like it used to be. Serious, straight to the point and away from superstition... For example: Carl Sagan's voyage: Cosmos.

    Please in future make informative videos useful for adults, and not only suitable for teens.

  • dis is shkary

  • last night had a dream a large spider was crawling over my ceiling ,lol

  • I don't think I've ever heard a more cartoonish set of ideas from astronogers, and that's saying a lot, they usually have some pretty far-out ideas that bear no resemblance at all to reality.

  • I could do without the corny mumbo jumbo.

  • good content. stupid presentation.

  • 2:43 dr Scary talks about ghoul....:)

  • The Black Widow Nebula looks awesome, lol. Another good vid; keep it up guys- spread the knowledge!

  • In embracing discoveries, we are in aw and fascination. Facing fears? Cute take on the theme of forming and dying stars and seeing snakes. Entertaining.

  • DR Scarey HAHAHAHA!!!

  • @gingergreek Big HUG to u, gingergreek!!!! (I know this is a bit random to do to you, but its "HUG A GINGER DAY" here tomorrow... :) )

  • @jeebersjumpincryst yey!! I wuvs hugs!! No ass cupping allowed unless there is cake :D

  • Science should stay the hell away from superstition.

  • @ytfmichaelxu Agree... but this was kinda fun... for a second... almost... :p

  • Halloween isnt until october?!?!

  • As always brilliant composite images from the Spitzer folks. However, it shows that an actual astronaut travelling to other stars will actually seldomly have comparable views during the voyage, unless a Spitzer-like instrument with lots of computer power is on board as well. :)

  • @tobitege or use a neutral or positive term like Thriller or Halloween

  • @teemuruskeepaa Just because you associate terror with a group of people does not mean that every person is without the ability to use words correctly.

  • @kenandkids Still the title has a hot potato in its hand and probably will have people clicking on the video because they think this is about torture of sentient beings. The connotation has power and should be consciously avoided.

  • @kenandkids not torture, terrorism

  • I don't find any of this scary.......

    To the contrary, I find it intriguing.

  • Why terror? That points to fundamentalist thinking, categorizing people into facile and simplist categories to create a sense of stability. Surely you as natural scientists are able to see people as they really are?

  • @teemuruskeepaa Damn nature, you scary. Exclamation marks not included to prevent the perception of fundamentalist thinking.

  • @teemuruskeepaa You got the wrong meaning of the word: "terror" in this case is sort of a feeling, like being horrified or shocked (ever watched a very scary movie as a kid?); in this case it has nothing to do with terrorism as you understood it I think.

  • @tobitege Ok, but maybe they should choose the word horror

  • @teemuruskeepaa Because it's fun? Maybe you need to experiment with humour and light-heartedness, most humans enjoy those activities.

  • This is too amazing for words...

  • interesting... entertaining....
