The Cosmos. We are Nothing! Take this small tour.

[kidcool1977]

It's a good thing man has billions of years to figure out a way to habitate other planets, because this SHIT IS HUGE. point A to point B takes some clever thinking to achieve

[mehediforever]

We are nothing.......

[JAL927]

i dont get it, if a galaxy is a group of millions of stars, what;s that big yellow ball in the center of the milky way??

[a2zhandi]

@JAL927 that is a gathering of billions of stars at or nearing the event horizon. The galaxies black hole!

[1c3x3d]

the song made me sleep

[comintokyo8]

yes indeed i like. thanks.

[RabidPetRock]

Cosmos is such an awesome show. Trying to teach without talking down to people.

Still love how Carl says "humans". :)

[JamesCizuz]

We already know the expansion, we take refraction, light now, and predict quite accurately where they are now. It's 183 billion light years actually. Also there is a absolute small, it is known as the string theory, strings are the smallest bit of "stuff" no longer matter, no longer energy, but a mass-energy constant. It's not blackness after our universe, big bang was just a super massive black hole which could no longer hold the immense expansion force due to heat from friction.

[JamesCizuz]

Around the outside of our universe, far away, other matter would of gathered, to great another black hole with the mass equal to a couple hundred billion galaxies, enough heat to cause enough expansion to break free, and cause a great expansion, or "big bang". Look into quantum physics, string theory, if you really want to know how fucked up our universe is.

[a2zhandi]

@JamesCizuz yea, it's pretty deep when you start talking string theory. How something so small makes up everything in our universe. And how everything works in perfect synchronization. Life and death from the smallest to the largest.

[RSwanson1972]

@a2zhandi Well said James

[a2zhandi]

@RSwanson1972 tyvm

[TWI08]

my question is how far does the black abyss of the universe go and what is beyond it? it must end somewhere?

[onehundredfortythre]

Nope... At some point there is not matter... But we'll never reach it because it's leaving faster than the speed of light because when the big bang happened... Yea... Lol... =P

[tommyk77]

Nice. The music sounded like Vangelis. Not heard of Cosmos. Pretty cool

[RSwanson1972]

Lol, It is the Vangelis

[tommyk77]

Oh, I thought it meant that the music was by Cosmos. So is that the name of the piece?

I had to study Vangelis in A-level. He's pretty good

[fugehdehyou]

IF the universe is what 78billion lightyears big wtf is OUR universe in? something bigger and badder fuck me i wanna know lol

[theoneandonly690]

that 78million light years is just saying how far the stars have expanded (our known universe) the blackness however is infinate

[RSwanson1972]

Ya, its remarkable! That one was just a birds eye view. I have anther one that take you 13 billion light years away and another one with the Deep Hubble Tele, which take you 47 light year out. It's mind boggling. LOL
