Strange Rumblings of a Neutron Star

[funrizwan]

Your videos are so freaking awesome unlike the History Channel's "The Universe" you maintain scientific accuracy and detail while preserving visuals

Buut you need a better narrator

[invalid000able]

iGreat!

[maalaea]

love your videos!

[gunnar045]

so acctually the real image is a square...lols

[jimmy8shoes]

@obesehairydog

SINNER!!!!!!

lol

[TheStarWatchingRock]

What were the durations of the gamma bursts? Are they comparable to what would come from something the size of a neutron star, or were they longer? I just wonder whether they revealed any additional compact structure.

[CooldudeXXL]

Maybe what is happening is that the central neutron star has been emitting gamma rays all this time. Previously the density of the nebular matter has absorbed these gamma rays and re-emitted them as diffuse x-rays. Now, at least in our direction, the nebular matter is thinner and unable to absorb as many gamma rays to emit at a lower frequency. Thus the drop in x-ray count along with the rise in blips of gamma rays. Hopefully the gamma rays won't kill us. :P

[UfoYes]

Great vid AGAIN ;-) Thanks.

[ngochoanghcm]

ji+ji+jk

[NotSoSuperJerk]

I hope we get to see Betelgeuse go out in our lifetime

[heatseeker4474]

when I watch some of the more philosophical videos you guys have like when will time end, etc, my it feels like my brain is high

[tubester4567]

I like spacey stuff.

[cristop001]

Ah screw this. This is for smart people

[SimplySchaun]

SpaceRip always makes my day so much better. :-)

[SuperExtreamTeam]

science be praised !!! :)

[TheAxlSnaks]

I am so happy watching science videos about space

... Seriously, I'm freakin' giddy.

:D

[Ikymay]

stop the stupid beeping in space!

[1Dblade333]

I'm Jizzing with intelligence.

[DogLike86]

2 dislikes? i mean... how? dont like videos about space, ok, ignore and leave... probably religous people thumbed down.

[drrednek]

@DogLike86 Stop being retarded please, thank you.

[StarCassiah]

Isnt space great?

[mrteemumilto]

People didn't see an exploding star 1000 years ago. They saw Jesus, and only a few people thought that maybe there are laws to this.

[Adj19888]

OMG LEAVE BRITNay ALONE

[cephyric]

global space warming, duh!

[errorrestricted]

Neutron Stars are awesome

[Angevelinka]

I know that ,y comment won't make sense to the most.... but this only holds more truth to the idea of Deathmask.

I love those vids.

[patrickdickesonsmith]

Gliese 581g ftw!

[Canterwoodcore]

@patrickdickesonsmith Agreed! Do want!

[J3ANP3T3R]

nice, its been a long time since a new SpaceRip video came out. i wonder if i can get a copy of that space scene from 1:47 as a wallpaper with good resolution

[metals1337]

Normally im not a big fan of science, but studying the universe and everything in it is amazing and humbling. Of all the classes I've taken in University, the Astronomy one was easily the most interesting and actually fun to study. Astronomy really shows how small and insignificant we really are compared to everything else

[ak2304]

WOW, imagine being on earth a thousand years ago when that thing went Charlie Sheen on our ass. Would've been quite a sight!

[1piecemage]

im gunna take a major for astro physics... ur channel inspired me :D, maybe one day i'll help u with these vids :P

[Qulopuaa]

@1piecemage .Is that hard work?

[fourtrees44]

@1piecemage good luck, we need more people into fields such as astrophysics.  :-) (that good luck was sincere)

[Nazoropazable]

Crabs' gotta be my favorite nebula

[BlackThoven]

I can't believe how more people aren't interested in the universe and its wonders! It is by far the most impressive and awe-inspiring thing known to man.

[fridsade]

1 person is a hardcore Christian that thinks this video is evil.

[nebnubs]

It's the Crab People. .... but really, this is interesting.

[phoenixbboo]

almost like a heartbeat?.. :o

[keyofdoornarutorscat]

ZOMBIE STAR!

[ArtisanTony]

Is this where crabs come from?

[kree1964]

I wish I could "boldly go...", in my very own starship. Nothing could make me happier, to greet each new day with the widest of grins, and astonished awe, for what as of yet unknown discovery awaits me next. If only...

[jeebersjumpincryst]

@kree1964 "to boldly go..." thought Kree idly, as he gazed out the ultra hardened bridge view plate at the huge, violet gas giant that swept this system. He could see the slow movement of the giant storms, slowly roiling, and even shadows of a few moons on its cloud tops. And the ship he captained for so long was finally his own. Kree's happy thoughts, and the beautiful view, were rudely interrupted as his primary implant grabbed his attention with a faint tickle. Kree sighed, took a last look

[jeebersjumpincryst]

@kree1964 (contd) at the stunning view, and pulled his feet off the console. More data was in from the probes mapping and deep scanning the earth like world he'd fortuitously stumbled upon a few days ago. His ship hung in a LaGrange point between the planet, and one of its two moons. Kree stood, yawned, and ambled over to an old style 2D flatscreen, which would have to do the job while his implants ran self diagnostics.Give em full resources,he thought,they were good to him,be good to them back

[jeebersjumpincryst]

@kree1964 (contd) he slipped his hand into the glove like controller, and brought up a flood of data. And the six probes had a lot of it. The world was roughly similiar to old earth, breathable, significantly less land mass and more sea, and more temperate - perhaps due to the binary it orbited, thought Kree. He caught his breath. It couldnt be! In all the years of the Alliance, of which he was a part of, and worked for as a contractor mapping new regions, no one had ever, EVER, found any...

[jeebersjumpincryst]

@kree1964 (contd) evidence of wormhole technology. Kree was shaking now - wormhole tech implied beings to build it, to force together unimaginably powerful forces! But so far, there had been nothing to suggest any kind of life higher than monkey type arboreals, grazers,hunters - the usual. The system had been quiet, still, peaceful. He sent a command to wake his crew - he needed more eyes, more minds on this. More sanity, maybe, but there it was, clear as day - timed showers of neutrinos..

[jeebersjumpincryst]

@kree1964 (contd) and various other exotics, seeming to originate from an underground point near the lower tip of a peninsula, close to the south pole of the planet. But no sign of anyone, not even city ruins, and everyone knew wormhole tech required planetary economies - hell, even more than that. Fantastic amounts of resource. And then it happened - Kree felt the dizziness, and sensations of distortion and alternating weight, and knew instantly a massive gravitonic event had occurred, causing

[jeebersjumpincryst]

@kree1964 (contd) the fabric of spacetime to warp and ripple. As he fell to the floor, vision going red, black, tunneling, his last thought was of the singularity and its containment - if it couldnt withstand this insult, they would be annihilated in one big gamma burst. As consciousness drained from him, his implant took control of the ships comms, and with all the power it had, squirted a mayday into underspace.

Some time later....

Kree opened his eyes and blinked...

[kree1964]

@jeebersjumpincryst lol, best damn reply ever... good stuff. 

[jeebersjumpincryst]

@kree1964 thanks - didnt mean to freak you out or anything tho - yr comment just got me thinkin. that was my first EVER attempt at writing a story - was hard to stop actually. :)

[kree1964]

@jeebersjumpincryst Not at all, it was quite good actually. I've been writing creatively since I was a kid(for about 40 years). Nothing serious, just for my own amusement, and ONLY science fiction. Ray Bradbury's Martian Chronicles was the first book I ever read, and I was hooked. Funny thing is, my interest in science fiction is what got me interested in science. And as fun and fascinating as science fiction can be, it really pales in comparison to science FACT. :)

[jeebersjumpincryst]

@kree1964 Hi - thanks!!! That was my first ever attempt, and I felt so embarrassed after posting. Interesting to hear you write SF - if you ever want to share, you know how to reach me - Id love to take a look. Im an SF addict too, and science generally. Agree with yr observation too. Ive just got out Gene Wolfe, island of Dr death and other stories, again. What an imagination! Did Ray Bradbury write John of Mars? I hear its being made into a big budget movie series... Thanks again kree :)

[Blender3danimator]

Damn, I just have to thank you guys for uploading this stuff. Way better than science class, this is actually interesting. Thanks so much :P

[benny6666]

F**k the comments like my nipple hars or shit like that so stupid i was doing this at 12 years old come on. and also we can see in this video that the 2 gamma ray burst happen , one in 2009 and the other seem to be in the end of 2010.

[rustyrobato93]

Zero dislikes. Keep it this way.

[fatmikecj]

@Aladoniss Awesome! I love space photos for backgrounds! At the moment I have an astronaut hanging off the bottom (I say hanging off the bottom, which way is up in zero G?) of the ISS as mine. Everytime I turn my laptop on I get a little jealous that I'm not in the picture too. Having said that I might be, but it's difficult to make out where over the earth they are with all the cloud cover, and you'd need a pretty decent zoom to see me waving in the background.

[migha]

I love these space stuff. But has happened with the longer "documentary" stuff latley? these are too short!!

[bmxboys1]

woah! 235 likes and 0 dislikes! this have to be some sort of a record!

this just shows how epic space is!

[Ziggurathsss]

thanks

[300tunes]

Waiting for the eagle eye nebula video. :s

[naenae8531]

imagine beings so fat your body explodes

[ManicMailman95]

ITS GLOBAL WARMING I TELL YOU.

[BDO917]

@ManicMailman95 not in anothe place from earth you will never know humans do things when they know that the are not right

[jnthnbush]

@ManicMailman95 no this is proof that global warming is a hoax

[psychodelicdragon]

want to see up close and personal!!!!

wish we could space travel now!!

would be first in line!!

[TheSolitaryPoet]

7% is a lot! I've never heard of something so drastic in such a short time.

[xyxean]

1080p FTW

[uut0]

104% intensity?

[Justino292]

When star explode I can just imagine them saying something along thee lines.

RANDOM STAR : "Fuck all ya'll nigga's I'm going to explode."

[pr0kris]

@Justino292

Nah. They don't say that. They can't speak.

[MoSxyxnr24]

the universe is badass !

[SpaceRip]

@MoSxyxnr24

TRULY! Hey, let's have some LIKES and FAVORITES... to get the word out to the larger community of U2bers! t.

[Territomauvais]

@SpaceRip Agreed. It's bullshit that channels like this and BestOfScience have so few views and subscribers as compared to...sXephil or...the annoying fucking orange.

It's upsetting :((( science deserves better

[Kaylanthedj]

@SpaceRip Hi SpaceRip! I love your videos and all but it took like 1 week to upload a 2 min video. I mean I had massive heart attacks of joy watching your 10 min videos. Is it a slow week where you get your videos from your source?

[SpaceRip]

@Kaylanthedj FYI... we are currently working on a 20-minute "Cosmic Journeys" episode exploring the habitability of planets around the star Gliese 581. It's a few weeks away but should be worth the wait. thanks for your patience! t.

[BlackThoven]

@SpaceRip Omg, I can't wait! :D

[Kaylanthedj]

@SpaceRip THANK YOU ALL MIGHY CHUCK NORRIS! I am a fool to question the master! Also thats my favorite star <:')

[D119heavy]

@SpaceRip Sweet! That sounds awesome, take your time and make it as good as possible I say -- and as you usually do already.

[kagestar616]

@SpaceRip Omg I love you.

(referring to your 20 minute Gliese 581 video)

[maddhattertime]

@SpaceRip The SpaceRip team is one of, if not The best, source of original YT videos. I especially love the 20min programs. Thank you!

[pater429]

@maddhattertime yep, everything looks very professional.

[FixedNewsAlerts]

@Kaylanthedj - Do you think making videos like this is easy?

[Kaylanthedj]

@FixedNewsAlerts Sorry its just im too into astronomy to wait but now i hear this. I will help develop a cure for cancer while waiting for the new vid or something else constructive.

[karadan100]

@SpaceRip I always do Spacerip, i always do :)

[PAULOcbi]

@SpaceRip yup I agree,but most of the 6.5 billion people on Earth are without a post-secondary education and in 3rd world countries almost %80 are illiterate,reading only 4-5 indigenous words.So they rely heavily on religious dogma about the Universe being created by a benevolent supernatural god-king whos` also a best -selling author,lol..They dont have a clue what even half the subject matter of your videos are. Your videos are great by the way. Thanx for the upload.

[xXxLun4tiKxXx]

This makes my nipples hard. no but really this is sum fun interesting shit that can catch about anyones attention. Learning about the Solar System is amazing.

[schmidtbag]

@xXxLun4tiKxXx which is funny because the crab nebula isn't anywhere near our solar system

[DanielPhysiker]

@xXxLun4tiKxXx Crab Nebula is not in our Solar System.

[infinitenight2093]

@DanielPhysiker true, but by learning about the crab nebula, we are able to learn more about our own solar system and how it may have formed.

[uudo]

@xXxLun4tiKxXx It sure is, however, the Crab Nebula is pretty far from this solar system we live in :)

[YOWHATTHEHELLUP71]

I like it when shit squirts out of my ass. 

[eituzett]

NICE

[lardo444]

Ripping!

peace, lardo.

[endofthecosmos]

damn, nikce.

[FFulmenTheFinnish]

Nice.

[STARCO1231]

OMG so amazing

[FreedomValentine]

A black hole might be forming there.. maybe.

[puncheex]

@FreedomValentine: No. If it didn't form a BH during the supernova, then it is the way it is forever. Except it will slowly slow it's spinning.

[gameoflordfuckerhalo]

Dude, I just scigasmd'

[Hydra136]

sweet

[Brygelsmack]

Awesome, SpaceRip! I love your channel.

[kokussnuss85]
