blows your mind to think our planet can fit inside a solar flare
just shows you how miniscule we actually are in comparison to the solar system

80 000 years to get to alpha centauri onboard voyager1!!! wow!!! so if there is no life at the moment, that can evolve during that 80 000 years and during this time we can die!!! only voyager will do the job and give some information about us. that is so scary. we are lonely and still dont have respect to our planet. people start to think about that what we do to save our world its already 7bilion of us!!!!

@WarofClayPruitt well, dammit!! Back to the drawing boards..

@itsjustnopinionok Actually it's been proven humans do not only use 10% of their brains, and at times we actually use 100 percent! Body travel is going to have to wait a bit sadly :(

To travel anywhere n the known universe without ever leaving earth. We do it all the time n sifi movies. Like looking at a picture and then being in that picture.

It is incredible. It's always bothered me that science fiction imagines densely-packed star systems or thick asteroid belts. In reality, even if you were in the middle of the thickest part of the asteroid belt, you'd be lucky to see a single rock. The distances are that huge.

I laughed at the closing statement that you had there :D If you are going to make somekind of astronomy series, I'm going to watch every video and enjoying it very much.
