Hearted Youtube comments on Astrum (@astrumspace) channel.

  1. I'm the lead researcher on this study and I can honestly say: this is a great summary of our work! Thanks for producing this lovely video. And to viewers: we are working on figuring out what these things are! Literally, watch this space 😁

  3. Astrum could narrate an impending apocalypse and it would be the comfiest thing ever.

  4. I don't know if you'll see this, but I'm a member of 3 astronomical societies in the UK. One of them has been around since the 1890s. Every week, without fail, at least one of them shows a video by you. I hope you know that your content is not only great for beginners, but viewed by people who have been studying the stars for 60 years or more.

  5. My wife and I are about to celebrate our 55th anniversary. We have set this video as our movie for the night. Thanks for putting this together.
    3500
  6. I love how you admit that a 3D version of a 4D hyper cube does not improve your understanding of another dimension. Thank you for being human!

  7. There are garbage science creators that use a fancy narrator and fancy footage but lack any substance. I almost avoided watching this video because of that, but I’m pleasantly surprised. Will definitely make a mental note that Astrum is not like some other clickbaity, low quality science creators
    2900
  8. Most people don't like climate change; I agree
    2600
  9. "Can we study extraterrestrial oceans?" "We have oceans at home."
    2600
  10. You can't just ask space why it's black
    2400
  11. As long as your voice is the narrator, ill watch anything
    2400
  12. Actually it's because of your fascinating, slower paced videos that I like to watch your channel. I have a general disdain for that sorta in-your-face, loud volume, used car salesman presentation style that is so popular right now.
    2200
  13. Sometimes it feels like space channels are all repeating/rehashing each other, but this video feels wholly unique and inspired. In general, that's something I appreciate specifically of Astrum content, but this one especially
    1900
  14. It's so weird. I feel sad for a piece of metal and plastic.
    1800
  15. Earth is also a planet, I have no problem with you covering the Tonga event.
    1700
  16. Most underrated thumbnail
    1600
  17. We got our money's worth on this little rover. Rest in peace Opportunity.
    1300
  18. Thank you for putting me in the video!
    1300
  19. This is by far the best & most comprehensive coverage I've seen on this event. Excellent work, Alex. Seriously
    1200
  20. Many are filled with existential dread at the expanse of space. But I’m just here smiling, almost brought to tears even, as I marvel at the majesty that is our universe.
    1200
  21. If scientists discover life on europa Would they be called Europeans ? 🤨
    1100
  22. Thank you Alex for covering this eruption. I’m a volcanologist and this video is one of the best presentations I’ve seen. Even though the boring tables and numbers are left out for general public, there’s still a lot of in depth information.

  23. I'm older, retired, and as I face the final chapter of my life, I find incredible comfort in listening to your videos...... being part of something so much bigger than the day to day existence, social, political, economic..... it's transcendent in scope and presentation..... the world, and youtube, needs more quality educational channels like this.
    970
  24. that moment when you discover another great channel

  25. On a cold winter night, years ago, there was a full moon backlighting these incredible high altitude clouds. They were moving across the sky at a ridiculous pace─it had to be over 100MPH. The air was so clear and crisp that the moon lit up the entire sky, so the clouds were plain to see across a wide field of view, only growing darker at the edges as I looked farther away from the light source. These clouds were in the jet stream of a weak polar vortex that had swooped down into the southern United States in the form of a cold front. After the storms at the head of the front blew through, dank humidity was replaced with a cool crispness that can only be properly described as cleansing. Like a new lease on life. I still remember looking up at the sky like it was something out of a sci-fi movie. The effect was mesmerizing. And memorable.
    946
  26. I came for a planet that apparently did not exist but I left with life lessons. Amazing work as usual, keep it up!
    926
  27. This is not a regular YouTube video, this is a baffling documentary with amazing imagery supported by well-studied content. Bravo Alex, this is one of you better ones!
    925
  28. Messenger is one of my all-time favorites, because of how magnificent and audacious its flight plan was. You can't get there without including relativistic effects, so the fact that the plan went almost perfectly is proof of the value of the rigor of science.
    917
  29. Have seen dozens of explanations of the two-slit experiment and every single time walked away unconvinced I actually understood it. Until this video. Top notch stuff as always.
    913
  30. I came here for the science, instead i got the feels.
    871
  31. When pictures / videos from space have to be prefaced with "the following images you are about to see are real" you just know that you're about to see some awe inspiring stuff.
    844
  32. Wow, 231 people have joined the Astrum Patreon community since I posted this video! I just wanted to give you a huge thank you for everyone here at the team. You make us less dependent on the algorithm and more on this community🙂 Join here: https://bit.ly/4anEb5u

  33. Top tier content here! As a weather nerd, this is one of the best videos I’ve seen explaining these circulations and their impact worldwide. Often content gets biased to the western hemisphere, but these seriously impact SEA, Australia, and India, probably Europe, as well (research possibilities, there). Your cohesive overview and organization, combined with animated graphics, and Astrum quality make this an engaging video I want to share with my students. Thank you for sharing your amazing work! 💜🌎
    752
  34. Can't wait to see Venus cross in front of the Sun in 2117. I'll be 154 years old. See you there!!!
    744
  35. At first I was like 'Silly Alex, you're going a bit too basic there with the explanation of our 3D world' and then this turned into the hands-down simplest, cleanest and best explanation of 4D space (and time) I have ever heard - bravo, Mr.! Also the book looks really great, congratz!
    723
  36. Alex you have a top 5 best space content channel on all of YouTube. Every single one is awesome. Keep up the amazing work. I can't help but to watch every one of your videos as soon as it is uploaded. Such high quality space content!
    715
  37. You should stick to the formula you're doing now, if you want my opinion do what you love, we are all here because we love space and because you love space too, that's what I think, do what your team and you enjoy
    712
  38. Thanks! I'm a primary school teacher and for a couple weeks each year I teach about space while using Space Engine and Universe Sandbox. I open up the space-themed weeks with 120 kids listening. Some classes I've been teaching multiple classes, totaling around 4 hours of mostly talking, and over 95% of the kids were still hooked. They are always brimmed with wonder and questions. Every year I come back to a couple of your videos to freshen up on my knowledge, so thanks for that!
    712
  39. The voice sounds like he's smiling non stop. Cute :)
    651
  40. 1968: “By 2018 there is going to be flying cars!” 2018: “How to prove the Earth is round”
    647
  41. This guy genuinely produces some of the highest quality content on YouTube. His content started out great and has only gotten better.
    641
  42. This can make a true man cry.
    630
  43. For those of you saying the planet is scary, well, yeah it is. Supersonic winds, instant death cold ,and primarily ice and rock.
    627
  44. I have yet to find a way to escape the grasp of your content!
    626
  45. First time I opened the video and I was like -Ohh come on, did you choose Io from among all the moons so far? then when I finished the video -My life was a lie never knew Io was that interesting and wonderful. You are doing really great man, this channel has the most interesting and uncommon knowledge about our solar system and the way you present it just f*ckin amazing. Thank you so much for all theese videos!
    566
  46. Oh. My. Lord. I am struck numb by the beauty of our own star. I seriously felt like I was orbiting closely around it watching this video. Thank you and thanks to all the brilliant scientists that allowed us all to witness these amazing visuals.
    562
  47. Excellent video! Chapters would have been a nice addition: 0:00 Introduction 1:07 Io 13:01 Europa 24:18 Ganymede 34:05 Callisto
    556
  48. Cassini is proof that humans can achieve great things. We were made for this. Thank you for this amazing video 👍❤
    554
  49. I love how visually distinct the Galilean moons are. Io is all yellow and red because of the volcanos. Europa is bright white ice criss crossed with red cracks. Ganymede looks like our moons big brother and Callisto looks like it got in a fight with ever rock in the solar system and lost
    543
  50. Did we just finished all the Galilean moons? ✌️✌️✌️
    539
  51. Cassinis last words, "FOR SCIENCE!!"
    539
  52. Fun Fact Myth: Callisto was a nymph who was seduced by Zeus, when he took the form of Artemis, whom she was in love with. They had a son, Arcus, who became a great hunter. Artemis kicked her to the curb, and Hera also found out and asked to speak to her manager. Irate, Hera transformed Callisto into a bear. Many years later, Arcus was hunting a bear, not kowing it was his mother. Seeing this all play out from Mount Olympus, Zeus blew Arcas and Callisto far away from each other and they each became constellations. Callisto became Ursa Major (the bear), and her son became Boötes (the herdsman).
    512
  53. It's so nice to be able to see some great pictures of Mars without someone trying to tell me there's an alien gorilla or a dinosaur in the background.

  55. There is a classic mistake here: ion thrusters don't necessarily have "low thrust". In fact, in many cases there is literally no limit to how much thrust they can produce. The issue is the amount of power available - they produce low thrust simply because they lack the power to accelerate more propellant and generate higher thrust. So the issue is really not the engine, but the power source.
    496
  56. I love your reasonable grounded take on the situation. The only things we know for sure is that we: -Have unknown objects flying in the sky, sometimes submerging underwater. -A non zero amount of objects are not able to be ruled out by glitches, human brain fallibility, or other issues -We don't know of any technology we have to match it That said. We need to destigmatize this or it becomes a strategic disadvantage. Imagine your enemy makes technological leaps, and you simply dismiss it because you believe it doesn't exist. It would be stupid to keep this stigmatized.

  57. Aliens on Saturn's moon Titan: "How do we know it rains WATER on EARTH?"

  58. when i got my first telescope the first thing i did was look at jupiter. Pretty life changing and gives you a whole new perspective on things. Beautiful planet
    490
  59. Hehehehehehe hehehehe. Hehehehehehe hehe hehehehehehe
    461
  60. Your channel is excellent. Beautiful images, pleasant low level background music, and clearly spoken word. Nice job as always. Hope it continues to grow.
    459
  61. I really like how you briefly introduced the viewers to the topic. How the planets were found, what methods were used and to what accuracy, which later gave a perfect context for the rest of the video to show how weird it is for us not to spot such object or predict it in any way shape or form. Personally I want to believe something is out there, it would be amazing to find a new planet! So I stay neutral in the discussion of Planet Nine but Im still interested in the process and I hope the scientists will find something. How exciting would THAT be?! Great video! :3
    458
  62. Insane that this star is 3000 light years away. So this means 37 flares are traveling towards us at any given moment. 😭
    446
  63. Where Does Space Start? Just after the alt-key.
    439
  64. My favourite planet ever ever
    436
  65. Kyle hill highlighted last year how all this AI generated, clickbait misinformation science/space videos are a plague on this platform. It hurts knowing it has a knock on effect on genuine educational channels such as yours. Youtube isn’t doing enough to preserve quality content. I’ll be supporting the Astrum Patreon from the end of this month. I want to give something back for all the hours of joy your channel has given to me over the years. Thank you so much Alex/Astrum.
    429
  66. For once a channel trying to earn my subscription rather than telling me to
    428
  67. feels weird how a metal box with some metal sticks and plates sticking out the side can make you sad
    415
  68. Visually stunning. Meticulously researched. Masterfully produced. I am continually amazed by your videos. You are one of my favorite YouTubers! 👏👏👏
    409
  69. im guessing it must be the view of the impact crater obscured by the material ejected
    401
  70. Perfect visuals. Perfectly balanced soundscape. Perfect narration. Thank you Alex! Don't change a thing, my friend!
    400
  71. Keep up the great work, Alex and Team Astrum!

  73. Hello Alex, I’m a grandma from Manchester UK and I really enjoy your videos. I think they’re extremely well done and your delivery is perfect for me. You explore and explain things with a direct, clear manner. Plus, I enjoy the topics you share - even in my sixties I still love to learn.
    396
  74. I didn't realize that the script was written by an A.I. before it was revealed, however, afterwards, I noticed something; a few key phrases were repeated many times. 'Vast amounts of data' for example. I'd have to watch the video again to remember the others but I don't ever recall any of your scripts being repetitive. So while I likely wouldn't have guessed it was written by an A.I., this video would've been easily forgotten. I also noticed that this video lacked your own personal fascination with the topic. For example, watching your videos on Pluto or Mercury, you can hear your personal investment into the topic because they truly interest and fascinate you. That was missing from this video. In any event, I'm thankful this was a one-off experiment. A.I. has a ways to go before it will capture what you (and your brother) show intrinsically.
    391
  75. For but a fleeting moment, the canvass of endless space relinquished its darkness; pierced by the brilliant beacon of humanity's ardent aspirations. Dazzling, spectacular, its beauty blazoned the skies of a distant world with radiant hues. Perhaps those who might have witnessed it would have paused briefly, in awe.
    391
  76. This channel is terribly undertated. Let's hope this video get into trending
    389
  77. Why is Saturn your favourite?I am bigger...I am sad now.Douchebag, thinks she is better, because her rings are visible and bigger...
    365
  78. Hi Alex, your productions are so well made, but your narrations are the best part, both the writing and the delivery. I'm an astronomy fan while being a complete layperson, with no training in any of the subject matter. I find your explanations easy to follow and understand compared to other physics and astronomy channels. They are also very engaging. Thank you.
    351
  79. I love how the sound of a Black hole is absolutely terrifying yet the sound of two of them colliding is just like a "Bloop" 🤣
    343
  80. I learned of this many years ago while studying electrical refrigeration. The vortex is exactly what is used in supermarket refrigerators that are permanently open.
    341
  81. Alex is my best "go to sleep ASMR." After I let him sink in, I rewatch the next day to learn the lesson.
    327
  82. Getting to see this kind of stuff makes me happy to be living in this day and time. I just wish I could live to see beyond my years to see what other discoveries are made.
    324
  83. 0:35 Jupiter's thinking: "you photobomb me one more time Europa, and I swear to god..."
    323
  84. Finally, the last episode! What a tenacious rover Opportunity was, he paved the way for all the following rovers. Can't wait for Perseverance to reach Mars!
    313
  85. That last shot of Orion upside down was confusing to us up here in the northern hemisphere lol
    312
  86. Alex, I may not be the only one who experiences this. I had to call my bank to let the payment for your book go through. Seems Astrum's website is not a bank's recognized seller, and it gets flagged from US banks as potential card fraud. To all wanting to buy the book, there's an easy fix if this happens to you. Just call your bank and have them unblock it for a few hours so your card can go through. Thank you Astrum, the publisher, and Alex for such a book. Keep it up, I genuinely enjoy the work you put together for us!
    312
  87. i feel like in the future they should just put an extra gopro on their spacedrones for beauty shots
    311
  88. I Ceresly like this channel. Thanks Alex!
    302
  89. Congrats on 1M subs!!!!!!!!!!!!
    299
  90. I just wanted to tell you that around 7 years ago i showed my daughter some interesting videos about space you made. And she fell absolutely in love with space. So much that she is 20 years old now and in her second year of college, earning her degree in Astro-Physics!! You planted a seed in her that had a thirst for space knowledge, we both have enjoyed your channel and videos for a long long time now, and hope to continue to see amazing content and learn so much from you. Thank you so much for showing my daughter a path, and always know that you have made a difference in someones life goals. Keep it up and you will never be alone in your love for space.
    298
  91. This is the best summarization of the climate I've seen. It's rare I see the solar cycle discussed to the point of nucleation sites. I wish you had discussed the long-term brightening of our sun (models vary, but scientists estimate the sun was 30% dimmer during the time of the dinosaurs than today), as well as vulcanism. Regardless, this is the most comprehensive video I've seen and I wish more people would see it. I know I'll be sharing it with people.
    288
  92. I've learned more science from this channel than I ever have stuck in a classroom 👌
    287
  93. Because apparently there aren’t supposed to be leftover bits with the IKEA parts they ordered.
    287
  94. Such an interesting solar system. It's been a significant area of interest for myself and my daughter. She is constantly bombarding me with questions about the Trappist-1 system and especially the Proxima Centauri system and related exoplanets. She is the one that pointed out your channel to me, and I've never regretted subscribing to your channel. Excellent subject matter, and outstanding research on your chosen content Alex. Keep up your good work.
    284
  95. My boy and I love watching your videos at bedtime, a father - son tradition. Your somniloquent voice makes him sleepy. :) Thanks for the great vids and memories.
    280
  96. Talking about forgotten moons, I know plenty about Saturn's largest moons, but know basically nothing about Rhea, despite it being the second largest after Titan
    279
  97. The algorithm is wack, wish they pushed the educational stuff more. Love your channel and my thanks go out to you and your team.
    263
  98. It's flippin incredible to me that literally every single planet in our solar system, the only solar system that contains life as we know it so far, is unique in their own way. I mean, if one contemplates the random nature of planetary formation, one might assume that the vast majority of planets should be fairly similar and "boring", bland dusty desolate rocks. But each and every single planet we have is utterly unique, even pluto and mercury with recent findings about their own oddities. That tied in with the fact that our Moon is the only moon in the solar system that is the exact right size and distance from its planet to cause a perfect solar eclipse that reveals the corona, a perfect solar eclipse which ONLY occurs in the solar system as seen from Earth (if you stand on mars, phobos wont produce such an eclipse, nor will any other moon seen from the surface of their parent planet). Contemplate that this perfect ratio ONLY occurs on the ONLY planet in the solar system with intelligent life on it. Also contemplate that during the earlier time of Earth, such as during the dinosaur ages, the moon was closer to Earth and as such would have blocked out the corona as well. This perfect ratio eclipse not only occurs around the ONLY planet with macroscopic life on it, it also ONLY occurs on this precise time when there are technologically advanced sentient beings here to witness it. I'm not saying it's by design, i'm merely saying, our solar system is absolutely astronomically impossibly unlikely in its perfection and layout at this precise time when we are here to observe it. If we evolved 200 million years later, the Moon wouldnt create a perfect eclipse anymore. Food for thought. Perhaps such celestial phenomena act as a catalyst, a spark, for creative self-awareness. If that were to be the case, one can only imagine the effect of a solar system embedded within a vast nebula as opposed to the dark skies of Sol.
    251
  99. Been a longtime fan. You’re what makes youtube great. Thank you!
    248
  100. "No way I'll watch over an hour about comets." An hour and 23 mins in, "oh, it's over already?" Thanks Alex, this was fantastic.
    247
  101. Alex could read his plot to kill me and everyone I love and I’d watch the entire video.
    245
  102. I stayed up late and spotted Mars for the first time in the sky today, it's so exciting to me for some reason.
    241
  103. I really love these videos. I wish there were more planets for you to cover!
    240
  104. It was great working with you AGAIN, Astrum. As always, really interesting video. I'm of the mind that if we were to detect a signal from an alien civilization, it wouldn't be an intentional signal on their part. Humans emit signals we often aren't aware of on a day-to-day basis (pheromones, odors, etc). And while other, less developed animals can't detect radio signals, they can definitely pick up on these other signals. The same may be true for alien signals. Keep up the great work! And, for any viewers who might be interested in trying out Ground News, I'm happy to answer any questions you might have in the meantime. Thanks!
    237
  105. Imaging popping champagne and say “happy new year” every 4.31 hours...
    234
  106. I love that this series is still alive:)
    233
  107. "Turns out that the universe has some pretty large coffee tables." Is my new favourite sentence.
    230
  108. Damn, Alex, I'm not sure it is normal if a 40 year old man finishes watching this with tears in his eyes! ;)
    230
  109. This is fantastic. Your film skills have gone through the roof in a very short time. I forgot that I was watching a channel on youtube for a while. Thank you for the amazing information.
    227
  110. I wonder if 1950s Hollywood knew how accurate their "science fiction" sound effects were.
    226
  111. this is such a great channel! not many videos but the combination of narrators voice, great choice of music and beautifull images makes it very special and exceptional :)
    226
  112. I had my son watch your video with me. He wouldn't stop talking about becoming a scientist now. Your content is definitely needed in today's society
    222
  113. Use my link to install Angry Birds Friends for FREE: https://rov.io/astrum and revel in the destruction!
    214
  114. Great coverage Alex, far more in depth than most sources regarding this event.
    206
  115. The Face of so many beautiful liquid nights of sleep... Thank you for all the knowledge of the universe and more. We got you Astrum, lets do this.
    205
  116. 4:55 For context, according to Wikipedia the average dose on Earth is 3-6 mSv per YEAR
    204
  117. I plan on donating $50 this month. Your quality, presentation, oration, are all 9.5/10. Much respect from 🇨🇦 canada.
    197
  118. 1:47 When you want to be Saturn but you're just not good enough
    194
  119. They were able to determine Venus' composition by looking at light reflected off the bloody moon, that's incredible.
    192
  120. Super heartwarming to see community's overwhelming support as we envision a new direction. Your candor is our rocket fuel, dear Astrum!!! 🌌🚀
    192
  121. Poor Uranus, always the "butt" of jokes. I see what you did there, Astrum 😂
    191
  122. my day is over now...i found your channel and now im binge watching it.....great job...subscribed!
    191
  123. I just culled a bunch of my subscriptions. You are too good to leave.
    186
  124. Hi astrum, I want to pour my heart into this comment. I am really long time viewer here (6-7years i think) I just want to let you know that you made me get fascinated in space and stuff around it so I am glad and proud to do so. I even crack some funfacts to my friends/family, because I gained the knowledge from your work which was and to this day and foward is just brilliant also that you are not like others promoting shitty brands and therefore you don't ruin the quality of videos because of it which is the one of the reasons that kept me watching you and let me tell you I am that type of the guy who just get bored after a while doing/watching the same stuff, but this channel and your team deservenot only my, but others attention too not only for the superior education than probably teachers around this topic, but also for learning about our place in the universe it self. I swear if you made a 4 hours long documentary video about a random rock in space I would watch it in one go ngl. 5 last words: Keep doing these videos please EDIT: If someone found spelling mistakes ignore them, because english is not my main language :)
    181
  125. Your voice is just a perfect story-telling-voice! Thank you for making these videos
    181
  126. 5:19 no wonder why they say Men are from Mars. ☝️😂
    181
  127. I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before but your voice, articulation and tone combined with your delivery of voice over for these videos is just perfect. There's a warmth and kindness that is really inviting and it really translates your obvious awe and wonder for space exploration. There are lots of space channels on Youtube but Astrum is by far my favourite because you can tell its passion that drives it, not any other ulterior motive.
    178
  128. Great video wasn't expecting such a high quality project from a smaller channel 😢
    176
  129. Ah, Oppy. Symbol of hope and perseverance. Never knew I could fall in love so completely with a rover. Thank you Alex! After a grueling week at work, it's a total bliss to be reminded of what humanity can achieve when we give our best effort. Cheers, & happy weekend.
    175
  130. They should have named the cubesats as Marco and Polo instead of A and B😅
    174
  131. THIS VIDEO IS A CERTIFIED HOOD CLASSIC. Sonic black hole 🕳? Unreal. Thank you for giving me a piece of understanding I’ve been missing for years. Really beautiful graphics, narration, pacing. It’s like the video itself has prosody. 17/10 for this video (due to Hawking radiation your video is creating a positive pressure on the universe it’s)

  132. This is such a high quality upload. You have put together and narrated some of the most amazing space images I have ever seen. I remember seeing the low resolution images of this comet when the mission was in the news. For you to put together and show the later higher resolution pictures and time lapse is fantastic in conjunction with your commentary. I can tell you put a lot of work into this and I really appreciate it. A gem of a video in a sea of shite that is YouTube. Thank you.

  133. 2028: Squid monster breaches ice right next to Europa Lander Lander: Detecting seismic activity Squid Monster: Eats lander Lander: Detecting organic compounds, signs of alien life!?

  134. The photos from the Venera missions hits home that this is a real place with dynamics going on but with no one to observe. It's simply astounding that a machine was able to function so long whilst immersed in a combined hostile factor of superheated and compressed air at once. The Soviets accomplished something extraordinary with second rate standards of technological access.
    162
  135. Thank you very much for putting together these videos!
    159
  136. What a wonderful story. The amount of research and planning to make such a magnificent informative video like this must have been massive. I have never seen such depth of information in any video I have ever seen. You are now a Master of Documentary....thank you so much
    155
  137.  @Pharisaeus  with the power of friendship
    154
  138. I love everything about your videos, they are of the highest caliber in every way. However, one of the things that really makes them distinctive is the tone you're able to set with the combo of your narration, script, and aesthetic. Every time a new one is up and I see it, it's like when you would run into a dim air conditioned house after being in a bright and hot sunny day. Incredibly refreshing.
    154
  139. What the hell have I been watching on TV all these years? Where were serious informative subjects when I was growing up? Your channel makes it hard to go back to watching regular "reality" TV ! It doesn't get more "real" than this! Bravo!
    151
  140. I always thought Jupiter was a boring mix of white, orange, and red colours. It's beautiful to see the poles and such up-close pictures.
    149
  141. 12 million light years away and it's 'local'. I'm never going to get my head around this. Brilliant videos by the way. Keep them coming.
    147
  142. You've achieved more in less than eight minutes than any Jupiter documentary I have ever seen; good job. Subscribed.
    142
  143. I never cease to be shown just how much there is to learn about space on this channel. These vids make my Friday nights! ... You know at least when i'm not out drinking champagne from the bottle in my ferrari I mean...
    139
  144. That was a cool hangout with cool people.
    138
  145. I love the drawings herschel did - I'd love me a copy of some of those.
    135
  146. Watching this while wearing my black Astrum hoodie.
    135
  147. Wow, this is the best episode of Astrum I've ever seen. It was well worth your effort to bring all of these amazing images and fascinating info together into one supercut. The notion that the Kuiper Belt might be teaming with objects that have subsurface oceans of liquid water -- and possibly even life -- is just mind-boggling.
    133
  148. My mother managed cancer for 10years until she succumbed to it in late 2023. She loved science and everything space. I was able to share this channel with her in her last year. Your channel was a taylor made distraction for her that kept her oohing and awing with wonderment. Thank you.. For myself, I find your content mesmerizing! I learn so much and feel I am lucky to have found your channel. ❤
    129
  149. "Opportunity had the Opportunity" way to go Astrum!
    128
  150. Yet again , quality work. You have a great teaching style. Your series would definitely be my recommend source for astronomy in the class room. Very well done. Carry on.
    127
  151. Wow such an interesting planet, hope mankind gets to visit it one day
    127
  152. About 6 years ago I was in a deep depression and Astrum videos were at this time one of a few things that could make me smile.
    125
  153. Alex, you don't even know it, but you're the reason I can take on a long day, and still manage to sleep well at night. Your balance between, soothing, inspiring, captivating, and inquisitive never fails to amaze me. The real hereos don't wear capes :D
    122
  154. Alex, when I was your age, I watched Carl Sagan educate all of us on a weekly TV program that is now legendary. "Cosmos" We all learned so much from Mr. Sagan. He was one of the most intelligent men to walk this earth. The content in his TV program was outstanding. Another big part of Carl Sagan's presence on TV was his distinct voice, his mannerisms, and his unique way that he articulated himself. You have a unique voice and a particular way of pronunciation with certain words. Never change that. It's your trademark. Love your show. Keep up the hard work. Never stop learning. Never stop educating. It WILL pay off. Thank you, Alex!
    122
  155. The most underrated channel in the entire YouTube spectrum. Thank you Astrum for making another brilliant video.
    121
  156. There needs to be more missions for the Ice Giants that we have. They influence the far reaches of the solar system so much, and yet we know so little. Imagine what we could find out?
    120
  157. Congratulations on 2 Million!
    119
  158. The blue is absolutely stunning...the planet is an enigma to various degrees
    119
  159. They need not to send unmodified Spot. They will build a specific version of it geared for space conditions.
    119
  160. Ummm, guys, who is going to tell him about Opportunity
    118
  161. Wow, nice to see this still being talked about. I worked on that program and did part of the design. That was a long time ago.
    118
  162. Enceladus looks like the most likely moon to have life!
    117
  163. I know it's been said, but I really enjoy your videos Alex. They are so professional, high quality and educational. Well done sir.
    115
  164. Quality output every time,thankyou.
    111
  165. I was lucky enough to convince my family to drive to Tennessee last year and see the 2017 eclipse. It was breath taking
    110
  166. 4:35 "Explain that, flat-earthers." NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Please, don't give them a reason to come here. They're like roaches, and once one shows up, they all arrive and start smearing their excrement all over the comments section. Your channel is one of the few astronomy channels that haven't been infested by these weak-minded attention whores. I beg you, if you see one with their copy-pasted announcement of willful ignorance, please, Please, PLEASE block them. EDIT: Other than that, keep up the good work! We missed you!
    109
  167. 2:57 I see what you did there 😂😉 "Cratering is perhaps the only process that is vastly been IMPACTING callisto's apperance"
    108
  168. I’ve been recommending you to people I know who aren’t particularly familiar or very interested in these subjects by describing you as the David Attenborough of the Solar System. I use this comparison because just like Attenborough you bring forth the wonder and complexities of the natural world to the masses in such a marvellously detailed way. It’s digestible and enthralling. And once again similar to David Attenborough you are completely unique in the way you convey and portray the information on the subject. I screen recorded this intro to this video to give them an idea because of how beautifully you put into perspective our historical interpretations of comets to our current capabilities to explore and interact with the seemingly unobtainable aspects of the sky above us. It was truely inspirational to me and the people in my life I try to share your channel with. Thank you for your passion and efforts. I’ve been on this channel back in the early days when you began your planetary solar system videos and it’s wonderful to see your growth and success, it’s well deserved! Thank you and thank you again and again.
    105
  169. Thanks for your efforts educating the public about the cosmos, and you have a terrific narrator voice. Cheers and to many more years of Astrum!
    105
  170. "Life, uh... finds a way..." Who can argue with the wisdom of Jeff Goldblum?
    105
  171. I didn't know the temperature varies so much in the different layers. Awesome presentation!
    105
  172. Excellent! Thank you for this extra effort, Alex.
    102
  173. Even though I did know all of this. I think this is the best presentation on the subject that I've ever seen!
    102
  174. I hope that NASA will send a spacesatelite to Uranus and Neptune so they can get more information about the two ice giants ☺️❄️
    102
  175. Man I have become such huge fan of your videos.... IAM LIKE ON BINGE WATCH OF THESE....
    99
  176. Some of these sequential images are fantastic. I'd seen a few of them before but I hadn't realized the sheer number taken by Cassini.
    99
  177. thank you for the incredible work you do
    96
  178. How I love to see these pics in such high quality!
    92
  179. You are one of the most accurate informative channels out there. I'm so grateful I found you! Once I am able to I will be donating towards your channel. I swear there is no better cosmic channel than yours! Plus zero click bate....seriously thank you!!!! You are doing it right my friend. I'm such a fan of your channel 🖤🖤🖤🚀🛸🌛🛰️☄️👩‍🚀
    91
  180. "Osiris-rex" sounds like the name of an awesome dinosaur
    91
  181. Compare news coverage. Spot media bias. Avoid algorithms. Be well informed. Download the free Ground News app at https://ground.news/astrum
    90
  182. You, sir, probably have the highest quality of videos on all of youtube. I can't thank you enough for the countless hours of true passion you take us along with, always perfectly paced. It's so much more than we could ever have wished for. Thank you so much Astrum, and we are all here for the long haul!
    88
  183. Hey Alex, Kyle from Aus here. I just wanted to let you know that you're videos are always wonderful and insightful, and brighten my day immeasurably. Thank you for putting the effort into making such awesome videos, and I hope you retain your passion for them for a very long time. Cheers!
    87
  184. Man the only thing I find it frustrating is the amount support this channel has. You deserve a lot more!!
    86
  185. If Saturn was placed in a bathtub, I bet it'd leave one hell of a ring after it was taken out and the tub was drained.
    86
  186. Your narration style conveys knowledge with enthusiasm, a conspicuous absence of condescension, a sort of raw and unabashed fascination that you clearly carried straight from childhood into adulthood, and a diplomatic intent that’s refreshingly apolitical. Not to mention the soothing quality of your voice and an accent that neither conceals nor belies any particular allegiance to one anglophone nation or another. Thank you, Alex, for sharing your blessings with everyone else. That’s exactly how to human correctly.
    86
  187. I prefer slower-paced content. Your channel is perfect as is and I learned a lot. The faster stuff is too overstimulating for me. Keep doing what you're doing, Astrum! :)
    85
  188. You said "all I could want to know" and I thought ha, tell me what Saturn tastes like then. Then you say ammonia crystals, so Saturn tastes like pee. Goddammit.
    85
  189. I went on Zooniverse to look for planet 9, but I got completely distracted by the Californian burrowing owls project. Those cheeky fluffy little blighters had me hooked!
    85
  190. I love this channel 😍
    85
  191. When everyone thought Alex forgot about Apollo series, he makes a comeback!!! Much Love Alex, you should be hired by National Geographic.
    83
  192. Does 4 videos a month mean 2 of the longer ones we are used to PLUS 2 shorter ones or 4 shorter videos instead? I prefer the longer videos. But I would love additional content as well. I'm torn.
    83
  193. Astrum is one of the coolest YT channels around. Love it.
    82
  194. Saturn plasma waves sounds like a 1950s sci fi movie! And the two black holes combining "blooped!" 🤣🤣🤣
    82
  195. It blew my mind when my mom wanted to show me a video that she thought I would like, and she put on one of your videos! You have independently attracted the approval of EVERY SINGLE PERSON in my family. We didn't even know that each other watched you. You've positively effected so many people with these videos. Teaching complex concepts with such elegance and simplicity is no small feat. I will always be grateful for you, your team, and this channel. Thank you, Alex, and thank you to the entire Astrum team. ☺
    82
  196. I really like your calm voice. You give good information about every image we see. You've earned a new sub
    81
  197. "Sometimes we want something too much, but we find it anyway, whether it’s really there or not." That, of the whole video, stuck with me.
    80
  198. Astrum is one of those channel that uploads videos with more than 18 minutes of video and yet it always feel like I'm watching not longer than 2 minutes. And after watching it, always leaves me satisfied and filled with more wonder. Thank you so much for this and all the videos you've made so far.
    77
  199. Background music. Very soothing. Video was well put together.
    76
  200. The Nimitz was training off the coast of Southern California, not Southern Carolina as you mentioned. Completely different geography.
    74
  201. Can mercury like trade places with Mars. I'm pretty certain that it will retain an atmosphere, and water and from that distance the magnetosphere will be of significance
    74
  202. I watch Astrum on a big tv with the lights off at bedtime with my little daughters. I believe they'll remember it when they're old ladies. Thank you Astrum 👍
    74
  203. There isn’t a word that accurately describes how cool this video is.
    74
  204. Consistently one of the best channels on all of YouTube. Fantastic bite-sized videos, great subject matter and great presentation. I rarely send money to YouTubers but I just love your Channel
    74
  205. Yeah yeah yeah, I played kerbal space program.
    73
  206. Best space channel in whole YouTube Astrum ❤️
    73
  207. Amazing! This was super interesting to watch. I really appreciate all the research and effort you've put in. The soundtrack is epic too. You are the best <3
    73
  208. I've watched so many videos related to space and astronomy. Nothing even comes close to these videos. The background music, the high definition imagery, and your voice over - it's so awesome, I never leave without watching the full video.
    71
  209. Hi, does anybody know what software is being used at 6:47
    70
  210. It's incredible how much information just one probe can give. These videos are brilliant.
    68
  211. can't wait until humans explore mars in person. a whole planet waiting for us, amazing.
    68
  212. God I love space. I love to think about the huge variety of planets out there. Some tropical paradises, some hellish landscapes and everything in between. We truly are blessed to live in this age of discovery!
    67
  213. I had been binge watching Astrum and a new video pops up.... Bingo!!
    67
  214. I took part in the Stardust at home online identification mission, where you could sign up to identify microscopic dust particles in the aerogel. I spent many hours on that and found several particles, while zooming in and out through the layers of the aerogel. Computers couldn't do that at that time and the data was too large only to be inspected by scientists. Was really an interesting challenge
    66
  215. It's so hard to imagine the distances in the universe and how much start stuff is in it. Seeing this makes you crazy wanting to explore all these galaxies yet even with hundreds of thousands of generations of humans we couldn't even come close to reaching even the closest neighbors. Excellent video!
    66
  216. Solar physics are so fascinating. The fact we can study Sol with this depth is amazing.
    66
  217. The James webb telescope is going to be amazing. It's honestly unbelievable that we'll soon have images from a telescope 7x better than the one that took these images
    65
  218. It's nice to see a video about Mars which doesn't claim that every rock is a dead alien's head, or a UFO hanger.
    65
  219. your videos never disappoint and is always a pleasure to watch. keep up the great work also, the shout out at the end put an even bigger smile on my face.
    64
  220. Astrum I just want to say I love all your videos! They are quite relaxing, and though I have read / seen some of this material before your presentation of the subject matter makes me want to sit back and just enjoy. The feeling your videos give me is the same one I felt when I first learned about space as a child. Hope you keep making videos, I'll keep watching :)
    64
  221. Oh dude, me an my girlfriend have totally fallen in love with your channel since we found you six months back. We've see so many episodes now. We even went to an observatory and saw saturn with our own eyes thanks to you. So keep up the great work, we look forward to seeing many more.
    60
  222. Your script is very well written. Thank you for taking the time to do it right, so rare these days.
    59
  223. Alex what do we got to do for a heart? I give you one 🤗❤
    58
  224. The Galilean moons will have so much to teach us. Temperature, light, and structure of their atmosphere make them very unique. We should be studying what life can live in these conditions. What gases, what elements exist there This is what is happening on the moons of Jupiter right NOW. We have no idea.Great video! Thanks!
    58
  225. If the blackhole is 10 billion light years away from Earth, why is this movie called Interstellar, when it should be called Intergalactic?
    57
  226. This is my favorite channel. Among tons of not-so-accurate and pseudoscientific channels, you are always trustworhty and very clear (and your voice is amaaaaaazing). Thank you so much for the quality over quantity way.
    55
  227. 48 years later voyager 1 is only about 24 light hrs out ! Still V1 and V2 are amazing technical pieces of engineering !
    55
  228. Ganymede, Europa, Titan, Venus sorta, Mars, Enceladus, Pluto, Triton, Iapetus, Ceres, Our moon are likely candidates
    54
  229. Once you find it and realize what you're looking at, it becomes a familiar sight in the night sky. Andromeda is a distinct fuzz even in moderately dark skies. Even the small bit you see with your naked eyes is pretty big!
    54
  230. RIP Cassini. And to the team that brought us all that great science: “They have to go back!”
    54
  231. You should have way more subs. Great channel.
    52
  232. I cannot for the life of me understand why we still haven't sent any probes to Neptune or Uranus. Despite their bland appearance I'm sure they have plenty of surprises and secrets to reveal.
    52
  233. We'll support you no matter what 👍
    51
  234. You make my universe a better place by creating these videos. Thank you!
    51
  235. I am a great source of both fuel and life I have life in my lakes
    51
  236. Thank you for the effort you put in this important video!
    51
  237. A very nice intro! I used to be an astronomy geek as a child however as I got older I got distracted by "real problems" and forgot about my childhood hobby. Now I want to get back to it and your channel is going to be a huge help! :D
    50
  238. Thank you Alex.
    50
  239. Can you talk about the China and ESA missions sometime please. Great Video!
    50
  240. I think it's unconscionable that we're spending gigantic sums of money pointlessly landing probes on the moon when that money could be used back on Earth to land skin cells on grains of rice.
    50
  241. I'll put my money on Enceladeus been the prime candidate
    49
  242. Extremely important topic, but ignored by most. Ridiculous to see people get insurance for the case they lose their travel baggage, but society has no backup plan for this flavor of global doom.
    49
  243. The off the chart quality of this video definitely shows that is was produced wholeheartedly! Thank you so very much for sharing such talents! <3
    49
  244. We love supercuts and as always you deliver, thank you Alex
    49
  245. I think there's a problem with this video: you say that when things cool they shrink. But your channel is super cool, and yet it does not seem to be shrinking at all. Is there a flaw in thermodynamic theory ?
    49
  246. I have had the privilege of seeing a total eclipse with my own eyes. I cannot put into words the feeling that overwhelmed me. It brought me to tears. I would give everything I had if it meant I could see a solar eclipse from the moon.
    49
  247. "Three times the length of Earth's Grand Canyon" - That is incorrect. The Grand Canyon is 277 miles long while Valles Marineris is about 2500 miles long, making it around 10 times the length of the Grand Canyon. Otherwise wonderful video, and I love this channel.
    48
  248. Eta Carinae is also the only star known to emit Natural Laser Light!
    48
  249. "I hope by the end of the video I will earn your like and subscription" Me: Not in the end, NOW
    48
  250. Clear presentation about Earth's atmosphere.
    48
  251. Just watched this video . . . excellent ! It convinces me that off camera narration is far superior to the speaker filling most of the screen time. The basic reason is all the time is spent showing relevant images, data and graphs and not the speaker. This style should be adopted by more/most YT'ers.
    47
  252. Thanks Alex. I can't speak directly first hand, but this conversation has come up several times as my family has been in the electrical trade in the US for 3 generations, and my father works for San Diego Gas & Electric currently, while also having spent several years working on electrical substation construction projects. While everything you said was well put and true, the lack of Federal organization and single source accountability has not stopped updates to the grid. Most major parts of the US grid have infrastructure in place for remote control and protection if needed. These updates, and their specific hardware implementation are not publicized for security reasons or so I've been told. Publicizing the ability to shut down substations even if it is via an extranet is just begging for problems and someone to attempt to exploit the most vulnerable aspect of every system, -people. One thing's for sure, if such an event happened Los Angeles is the last place I want to be. It would be an interesting event though. Even if recovery was somewhat peaceful, the entire 'civilized' world would inevitably go into martial law. After an extended period in power I imagine more than a bit of political instability would emerge on the other side forever changing the geopolitical map. -Jake
    46
  253. Nice video! I like the short bite sized format. A lovely way to learn a little factoid about space every week.
    45
  254. I ALWAYS look forward to seeing your videos. Thank you.
    45
  255. MIND BLOWING. The scale is breathtaking -- and this is the nearest star to us. Also, you nearly ran over a pedestrian and an old woman on the way to Alpha Centauri. Interstellar space exploration better include liability insurance!
    45
  256. Impossible. Physics forbids it.
    45
  257. It's amazing on how much we've learned about our Solar System just in my lifetime.  When I was a kid we thought the moons around Jupiter and Saturn were like our moon and not the active worlds they are now....not to mention we didn't know about many of them before Voyager 1 and 2! Mars is such an incredible world as well, and I love the images our probes and rovers have sent back!
    45
  258. Every video looks even more professional than the last! Great job.
    45
  259. wow, jupiter and saturn look like works of art!
    45
  260. Thank you Astrum for another top tier quality video. I'd love to see some more content from you based on our oceans and the deep somewhat alien world. You have one if the best narration voices ever. You would not be out of place on the BBC. I love your content you somehow make what is already interesting even more so. I shall support you on patreon as soon as i am able to do so. For now i make sure to press like on every video i watch. Wholeheartedly, thank you Astrum.
    44
  261. - "My academic mentor was lead scientist on the mission." That's not possible. The lead scientist was Michael A'Hearn and he passed away in 2017 so he could not have ever seen the video. Perhaps you mean "One of the scientists"? What was her name? I may have met her. I was in the control room at JPL during the impact and was actually the FIRST person to confirm we hit the comet. But we were not allowed to "Cheer" because that would have stolen the scientists "Thunder" :-)
    43
  262. On the EarthCams app, weather permitting, I am able to watch the sunrise in Iceland and the sunset in Hawaii simultaneously. I am on Eastern standard time and it was about 1 AM I think when I was able to catch that. It was pretty cool. This is also evidence so easily & beautifully demonstrated for this incredible round blue ball we all are lucky to exist upon. By the way these are live feeds on EarthCams and each one has a clock denoting the local time for each location. Cheers !
    43
  263. @astrumspace I can't thank you guys enough. These videos are the best remedy for my insomnia. Alex's voice is nearly hypnotic. As an extra bonus, I'm evidently now an expert (relatively speaking) on our solar system thanks to you kind folks. Never realized how much I had learned here until a family discussion orbited around our neighboring planets and their moons. I felt like a genius, if only briefly. Wish I could offer you more than my gratitude. ❤ Happy holidays, much love
    42
  264. 5:18 the middle of the right of the screen there's a dick and balls in the ice.
    41
  265. This should be featured on NASA's channel.
    41
  266. How would you 'confirm' a rogue planet discovery, when it's incredibly unlikely that another transit will ever happen again?
    41
  267. Amazing content as always!
    40
  268. My daughters name is Carina😆She has her own constallation!
    40
  269. @4:36 Yeah, explain that, flat earthers!
    40
  270. These videos are saving me. How's that? I have CFS/ME (chronic fatigue). I cannot work and have few productive hours in a day. Its depressing at times, and lonely, hard some days to do basic functions. But I am working on recovery and know in time I can get back to a more normal life again. Its a long process. These videos keep my mind engaged on something other than my predicament. And reminds me the breath and beauty of life and all of creation. Which tells me I too have more to discover in my own life. Like the Gallelleo explorer, some of my parts may be broken and I may miss out of some things I intended for. But still, I can sure get some nice shots in on the way, and still fulfill my purpose and make it a very long way. Thank you to the creators of this channel. 💗 To anyone to needs to hear this: hang in there. There is so much more, things change. They can and will get better in time. Believe in yourself. 🌺
    39
  271. Dude that reveal was crazy that totally seemed like a script you’d write, there were probably some indicators but none you’d really notice without looking for them
    39
  272. So I can make the same sound with my mouth that colliding black holes can? Nice.
    38
  273. O.o  <--my face when hearing about the Earth-killing star, lightyears and lightyears away...
    38
  274. The Earth is flat bro. Kidding, just kidding hahaha. Love your videos man, always learn something new.
    38
  275. truly awesome videos. i know this is an old video but i recently came across your channel and have been binge watching every single video you have posted. awesome stuff, seriously. thank you for the content.
    38
  276. I watched you when you had 2k subscribers, my word your content has greatly improved and it was like watching something from national geographic, amazing work
    37
  277. This channel legitimately deserves public funding. I put it right alongside Nova or Cosmos in terms of how it teaches and visualizes space topics.
    37
  278. I'm really glad that you finally uploaded a new video i really love your videos man they are so relaxing!
    37
  279. You are a master educator my friend
    36
  280. Best Astro channel in YT. Great voice! Good luck! 🎉
    36
  281. It is a great face. Thank you for being my go to for calming educational content. I cant tell you how many times I have listened to your videos before bed or during a panic attack. Thank you.
    36
  282. I love the way you communicate the science. Beautiful music and pictures. Many thanks
    36
  283. You always makes quality content. Thank You for the free info!!!
    36
  284. I know to this is an older posted video, however I learned so very much. You are an excellent teacher. I just told my husband about how fast the star vft s102 spins according to your video! It's hard to wrap your head around! Thanks Astrum!
    36
  285. Entry temperature 27,000 farenheit? Seems a little toasty for 12,000 mph .
    36
  286. This channel is going to be huge. Like, space-huge. Excellent video man. Love your passion for space exploration, it's infectious. 10/10
    36
  287. Alex, I just love your content. Your voice is perfect for this, and you tell good stories while conveying new and fascinating facts. Thank you!
    35
  288. I have NO CLUE as to what was said here BUT..... It sounded DAMN GROOVY
    35
  289. I ain’t livin on No wasp planet had enough of that here on earth
    34
  290. Beautiful video. As a viewer, I can really feel your passion for space through your videos, which I appreciate a lot. It is very inspiring.
    34
  291. Thanks. I think you added your voice in a good way. Lets hope it reaches more people that are confused by the way the debate is currently often held, like me.
    34
  292. Your voice is the one of the most lovely sounding voices- what a gift!
    33
  293. Um, that Jupiter type object with 1 million years revolution period. How do we even found the object and its revolution period? I mean, we can't rely on the dip in its star's brightness during transit because the interval between each dip will be too long. Is there any other method to measure it?
    33
  294. I always believed there was something absolutely beautiful about the size of our universe. Who says that there won’t always be something new to discover? Something to think about? It’s very humbling.
    33
  295. Brilliant video but found out europa clipper won’t be orbiting europa because of the radiation from Jupiter it will be making a lot of flybys
    33
  296. I don't know what NASA's InSight will do on mars, but will get some insight right now.
    33
  297. Astrum - one of my favourite channels, grear work sir.
    32
  298. Your channel captures the raw feeling of curiosity that these wonders and achievements of exploration hold. To many people focus on the most famous and grandest of space travel, yet you find and show people the beauty in the most common of space exploration. Thank you so much for your creative work
    32
  299. This was SUCH an incredible video. Really appreciate you explaining some of the basic principles around quantum physics and entanglement. Before watching this video, I didn't realize that I had the "classical" understanding of quantum physics, and you allowed me to understand things just a little more deeply. As a complete layperson who finds himself fascinated with trying to learn more about this field, that means everything to me. Thank you :)
    31
  300. What kind of question is that?? Of course we want more videos like that!
    31
  301. It is so frustrating to see our feeble attempts at exploring these celestial bodies on the timescale of the solar system. But on the other hand, I would blame Science fiction that has injected an impatience in enthusiasts who now expect much more than what is possible. It is something that adds to the frustration of our technological limitations. However, we as a species need to bring our own house in order first, ensuring a sustainable social structure without trillions of dollars wasted on violence and conflict.
    31
  302. "It makes you wonder what on Earth the weather would be like on Uranus." On Earth. 😂 Nice video and cheers to Mr. Brightmore (good name for someone looking at the stars) for sharing his time!
    31
  303. Thank you so much for your hard work in making these exceptional videos.
    31
  304. Ahhh, loved this. Now I can put a face to the lovely voice! Thanks for your hard work ❤
    31
  305. Wow why such little views? I get excited to see your videos. I hope you remain active i genuinely enjoy anything you put out especially space related. Well anyway i do sincerely hope you grow as a channel and make more videos as we learn about what goes on beyond us.
    30
  306. Yeah this is one of the most underrated planets but it's still one of my favorites.
    30
  307. Alex - IMO, this documentary piece, by far, is the most interesting one you’ve produced. Thank you for sharing it with the rest of us.
    30
  308. I just found your videos and I subscribed. Needless to say, I've found a new channel to add to my regular favorites. :) So very nicely researched and presented.
    30
  309. That's so stupid. Keep your head up my friend.
    30
  310. I wish videos like this were more widely studied, it puts to bed this strange notion that the moon is boring. As Obama said, "we've already been there". What a ridiculous statement. We've barely scratched the surface!
    29
  311. Move over Elon we got a new space daddy
    29
  312. Transform your space with the floating Moon lamp! Grab yours at https://bit.ly/3UuE2Xa
    29
  313. I don't normally watch YouTube videos of this length, but yours have been consistently interesting, informative, and of high quality. This was no exception. Excellent. Well done.
    29
  314. I have fallen asleep every night for the last 5 years listening to your videos; I even made a couple of public sleep playlists sorting your (and SEA, and History of the Universe) videos by sound level. Making sure a quiet video isn't on the same list as a louder one prevents me from waking up from the volume change. I love your content and was so worried you were going to say you're retiring, so I'm glad that isn't the case! Sending all the hugs to you and your team from me in Austin Texas!
    28
  315. Might the remaining mysteries be caused if Saturn's core was not spherical but instead tends a bit towards the ogival, tapering to the north and south poles? I always thought Saturn was overrated. It had rings, Enceladus and Titan, and a few minor subtleties. You have made it more interesting to me than a nondescript brown ovoid, only rated for its bling. Most of the interesting processes are happening deep down, far out of sight.
    28
  316. This is one of the best channels on Youtube for me. You can clearly hear your enthousiasm and love for astronomy in your voice, all the while being perfectly clear and composed. This combined with the most beautiful pictures the universe has to offer make for a very enjoyable experience, even if one is not very interested in astronomy.
    28
  317. Incredibly well done and brilliantly simplified explanations + thought process of this content. I’m an avid watcher/reader of science & space news/explainers, and this is genuinely one of the most (if not THE most) well put-together pieces on black holes I’ve seen. Really great work. Been a subscriber for awhile and just wanted to say you’ve really hit your stride! Enormously impressed - thank you for the content!
    28
  318. We have been here for years because of what you do. Carry on, I’ll be better at feeding algo, liking and commenting on each video. That’s what I can do.
    28
  319. Awesome, never thought back in the nineteen sixties I would ever see the surface of Mars, never mind with this clarity! Wow
    28
  320. This video is very well put together. It's well-paced, doesn't have a ridiculously long title/intro section, doesn't have an annoying computer voice, no annoying sound effects, good balance between voice and background music, and shows good views of the material presented. Many youtube video creators could learn a thing or two from you Astrum! Well done!
    28
  321. Just Found your Channel about an Hour is so ago, been binge watching since; love your Content and Great Narration. It is amazing isn't it how much Endless life is out there compared to such simple and meaningless things we do in our day in comparison. I'm at the beginning of a new chapter into Science and Astronomy, and your Videos are very educational and much Fascinating; Keep it Up 👌.
    27
  322. Sad to see you go, but beautiful a sight it was . Thank you Cassini. Rest. And Alex, It was, as always, giving the proper due justice and sublime in presentation... I've always endured my adulthood maintaining that overwhelming child's curiosity and reservoir of love and fascination with the Universe, as well as just our little point of space we still tip toe quietly, peeking in on our neighbors... Still so brand new to us all. It's great. My thanks to you, my friend, because the genuine sincerety and obvious love and excitement you have is apparent, it's good to find others as passionate about the seemingly unnoticed, overlooked play that is so delicately powerful in it's raw beauty, dancing the dance it always has and will always be, with no thought or knowledge of us. Yet we have but only to take in as long a look of it as we like, to witness the greatest thing we ever would hope to see. I guess some will win and some will have their smartphones and distractions. But the first video of yours, I was sold on immediately subscribing... Cuz you said, if I like space and wanted to go on a journey alongside you, well, I trusted the time would be just as well spent, and excited to see if my beautiful and wonderful 3 &1/2yr old son, shares my love for it all, as well.(!?!) Couldn't think of a better and trusting pilot to ferry us through, so, thank you for doing these. They mean a lot to some of us out there. And, have to give you your due props~ 3rd most soothing voice to hear, while journeys are taken... But don't feel too bad about third place, only Bob Ross, and Morgan Freeman best you there. Big Universe, so that's pretty good bro...look forward to your next one.
    27
  323. I'm only 1:20 in but i wanted to post this before i forget, one part that makes your videos stand out to me is the way i can tell just from your voice every video you make, i can HEAR you're smiling and enjoying yourself through the narration, it's such a nice experience to view these videos created with genuine passion for the topics.
    27
  324. Imagine the countless civilizations in these images, going about their business right this very moment, interstellar diplomacy, trade, an infinite number of primitive civilizations experiencing "first contact" at this very moment.
    27
  325. I can sense enthusiasm of your voice in this video.
    27
  326. This channel is so good, thank you for putting effort into this video.
    27
  327. Alex : Let's have a look at one last image Me: Noooooo I could watch your vids on repeat all day. Just by listening, I can imagine you smiling from how much you love space and its exploration. Tbh, I've never been interested in exploration mission before I found Astrum. I only care about the new knowledge gained from it. Now that I know better, I'm falling in love with our satellites & probes.
    27
  328. Your videos are the best space documentaries ever produced. You have rekindled my interest in space. Your voice/narration is top notch. As a side note, I remember watching men walk on the moon on our black and white television as a child.
    26
  329. Great quality. Great content. It's good to see channels with subject matter like this that is based in the world of science and not coming from under a tinfoil hat
    26
  330. your channel does not get enough credit for how good it is. keep up the good work!
    26
  331. I'm so grateful for your vids! They show respect for us viewers and a love of science that is truly refreshing, since most documentaries on the subject are usually tacky and/or tedious. You, on the other hand, provide sufficient details without overwhelming the audience, and the length of the videos is adequate as well.
    26
  332. Thanks for another great video. Your channel is the only channel I've pressed the bell icon for. When ever I see the notification I smile because I know that the video is going to be great. Keep up the good work :)
    26
  333. You add so much value to my life Alex. Thank you for making Astrum. Life changing. Seriously. This channel is beautiful, elegant, and a wonderful experience
    26
  334. Thanks for reuploading it instead of abandoning it. It's a beautiful video.
    26
  335. instead of pushing it away from mars by two centimeters per year, how about just reducing mars' diameter by two centimeters per year?
    25
  336. I subscribed. I love NASA and Hubble and other sites, but you do provide good commentary with details. 😉
    25
  337. This a very insteresting thing, really love this channel
    25
  338. This channel is literally one of the best. Its videos are so good that I can't believe I'm watching them for free. I can't support you financially but I never miss your videos and never forget to give a like. Keep doing that good content of yours sir
    24
  339. Your channel literally re-ignited my love for space about 5 years ago. I just wanted to say that we have your back whatever you need to do! Keep up the awesome work, And thank you : )
    24
  340. You are the best channel about space out there. Thanks for what you're doing. :)
    24
  341. The thing I love about this channel is that he doesn’t use photo renditions images of space
    24
  342. Very well done and fascinating!!!!!!
    24
  343. I know exactly the sort of sight you're talking about when things are clear and away from light pollution. And yes, it's freakin' awesome.
    23
  344. you feel like really genuine and nice person. All the best for the days to come bro. Love your videos and keep up the good work.
    23
  345. By the way, your podcast versions of the videos are awesome! You have a great calming narrating voice. Hope to continue listening
    23
  346. Excellent video i really great work.
    23
  347. Alex, you’ve built something incredible and as far as I’m concerned, you can do no wrong with Astrum. Longform content is the backbone of YouTube and your channel, so as long as you keep those coming, you totally have the community’s blessing to experiment elsewhere. Good luck in this new chapter!
    23
  348. Concise and fascinating videos
    23
  349. I hope those comments didn’t bother you too much. (: I’m sure there were other viewers who appreciated it. Thank you for the great content. ❤️
    23
  350. Another great video man! I actually wanted to study either physics or astrophysics in university but opted for aerospace engineering. Fortunately computational methods (i.e CFD/FEA) used in engineering, is definitely used in astrophysics so there is research there <3
    23
  351. One of the greatest voices on YouTube so different to how I imagined you
    23
  352. Your videos are quality, and you're more than deserving of patience... your work is worth the wait. Congratulations on your sponsorship, that's great! Hang in there, and good luck with your studies. :)
    23
  353. Absolutely love your videos man! One minor thing I noticed is that you said Europa Clipper would orbit Europa, but actually it will orbit Jupiter and make a series of close flybys in order to avoid extended exposure to Jupiter's radiation. Brilliantly edited and put together video though. Keep it up:)
    22
  354. Fantastic. Thank you so much for exploring this fascinating topic!
    22
  355. Awesome... Life is actually beautiful...
    22
  356. Thanks!
    22
  357. Great video! It makes me realise how we exist due to the extraordinary balance of factors found on this planet. Perhaps here is the answer to where are all the aliens - they are the rarest product of the universe. The same laws of physics and chemistry exist everywhere, at least in this universe. The combination of factors for life to go beyond the organic chemistry phase may need to be incredibly fine tuned. Unlike Goldilock’s porridge - not to hot, not too cold, the may need to close to exact - 21% oxygen, large moon... Life on earth exists in an extraordinary range of environments but this may be more a reflection of it’s ability to adapt once established. Life’s had billions of years to evolve ways to cope with extreme heat or extreme acidity or whatever. Life starting out in those environments is a very different ball game. Perhaps if we meet aliens in the future, they may not be all that different to us, from a planet just like earth!
    21
  358. How could anyone thumbs down this? This is the beauty of our universe. Can't wait for the rest of the series!
    21
  359. This was the first video I watched with my eyes closed. That was epic
    21
  360. I felt small when I saw your 1st video - Now I feel microscopic (-:
    20
  361. Absolutely beautiful!!! I really hope that within my lifetime humans land on Mars.
    20
  362. Love this video and really appreciate your efforts
    20
  363. new fear unlocked
    20
  364. Rest in peace for ever and evet Cassini. Your contribution to the human civilization shall be remembered and cherished for decades to come, if not centuries. Because of you, we now have a better understanding of the ever magnificent Saturn, and for the first time in history, able to see photos of the giant planet and its rings. Rest easy, on the soil of the very planet you traveled to learn about. Now, we impatiently wait for the James Web.
    20
  365. high class quality content, I remember subscribing when you had 30k subs. you deserve thousand times more than this :) keep up the good work
    20
  366. Here is something to read first before using welding lenses. It depends on what shade they are. Do not use oxygen/gas welding ones that are shade 4, 6, or anything under at least 10. Shade 12 is the best but hard to find unless you modify an auto darkening setup at the infrared sensor. You can stack two shades such as a 4 and an 8 or however you feel is best but that is your own choice. It is best to have the filter at the end where sunlight is entering and not at the eyepiece. Just think of being a kid with a magnifying glass and an ant...Even with the filter, you become the ant. I have modified some to work on my telescope in different ways but I really only try to avoid looking through it and use a camera to see...Just in case of course. Something interesting to know about welding glasses is that they are made to filter all light except a small portion of the visible spectrum which is around 5 to 600nm (not 100 percent sure on the number) but it is to protect your eyes from the harmful ultraviolet radiation and other wavelengths when arc welding. To be the safest and if you have the money, buy a solar telescope setup. Looking at sunspots, which even though there are none right now and activity is low, the solar minimum phase is ending and will be more active soon. You can also see other solar events such as prominences and plasma "flames" with the correct filters and that is really awesome. That is where things get expensive or you gotta really use your brain to make things work. If not, an observatory would be the next choice. Knowing how social media runs the world even though I became very antisocial thanks to the ex wife, finding one nearby or other people interested in what is out there shouldn't be too hard to do. Be safe and don't do something that will cause harm to your self or to your property.
    20
  367. this leads me into tears...
    20
  368. So glad someone made a nice video about my favorite childhood planet! Maybe in a distand future life will move to Uranus, when the sun expand.
    19
  369. The AI wrote a good Astrum script, and I couldn't tell it was written by an AI before the reveal. I use Bard daily and I thought I was getting good at recognizing its voice, but I was so engrossed in the video that the idea that the script was written by an AI didn't even occur to me. Humans are perfectly adapted to living on Earth and extremely vulnerable and inefficient at space travel. Computers, on the other hand, especially paired with a nuclear reactor that could last hundreds of years, are easily adapted to space travel. This leads to the BIG QUESTION - where are the AI space travelers from other civilizations that have reached our level of technology?
    19
  370. Wonderful, this is quickly turning into my favorite space-channel.
    19
  371. These are some of the fastest clicks of the quarantine! New Astrum video? Yes please!
    19
  372. I love this channel! Thank you guys!
    19
  373. That's human nature in live chats. There are people whom are always negative no matter the circumstances. Don't allow thus to prevent live chat if you really want to do it.
    19
  374. Your answers about sci-fi movies and overly stretchy and dramatic documentaries are so darn relatable haha! Congratulations once again on 100k subscribers, I've seen hundreds of channels that delve into astronomy and most of them are clickbaity and talk about facts that are only unknown to a layman, or there are those that do talk about more obscure facts but with so little detail and so much oversimplification that it feels like babying. Astrum however is neither of those; it gets straight to the point, is up to date with the latest findings in astronomy, and man your voice is relaxing! So I say you deserve that 100k and a 100k more! Love from Algeria!
    19
  375. Simply amazing. I’m in absolute awe.
    19
  376. very informative. Thank you
    19
  377. Alex, I have been watching your videos for a year now and I simply love your take, approach and care that you bring to your content. This video was deeply interesting in understanding the context of our planet and the impact that we have in a short space of time. Thank you for the time you take and the thorough research and stunning visuals. Watching Astrum videos has become my 5 year old daughter and myselfs nightly routine. Keep going strong 💪
    19
  378. The whole universe is nothing more than vibrations in the quantum field, and we experience these vibrations in the form of matter. So does the matter really exist, or is it just our perception of energy fluctuation. DO I EVEN EXIST!?
    19
  379. One thing I'm curious about with subsurface ocean life. The current idea of abiogenesis implies that organic compounds form with certain gases in the atmosphere and a sudden energetic burst, usually a lightning bolt. I'm curious as to how abiogenesis could occur without a proper atmosphere for gases or lightning.
    19
  380. A video on martian volcanoes or caves. Would be a good idea.
    19
  381. This is fascinating stuff! My guess is that magnetic reconnection happens constantly at small scales, particularly as the hot/cold areas are constantly shifting and pulling the magnetic field lines with them. It's just that we can't see those smaller nano-flares because they don't release nearly enough energy to be visible against such a bright background. As supporting evidence I'd like to offer up the small "spikes" of plasma extending out of the sun's surface as seen at 5:30, which I suspect to be similar events. But that's just one possible explanation for the continuous howl ;) Also, small correction: you quote the velocity of particles within and outside the corona as 145 m/s and 618 m/s respectively. They're actually 145 and 618 kilometers per second, fast enough for the solar wind to be supersonic all the way out to the edge of our solar system.
    18
  382. You can't imagine the panic I had. Thank you so much. You really take care of your channel and it shows. The production, the community, and especially the enthusiasm in your voice make a very pleasing experience.
    18
  383. Astrum has the best Channel on YouTube
    18
  384. Dude! Did somebody finally just explain it to me!? I don't like band wagoning on a whim just because... and no YouTube vid as of yet has explained the facts as concrete as this one! Where are the subs yo haha #EarthBeRound
    18
  385. This is the best video for learning for learning the evolution of galaxies. I didn't even know what lenticular galaxies were and now I do. They are pretty awesome.
    18
  386. Another great video! Thank you!
    18
  387. I would have included the impending pole shift and ebbing of the earth's magnetic field as compounding the problem. In the vernacular of Star Trek, earth's shields will be down.
    18
  388. Thanks again for the great content! Have a relaxing holiday 🙂
    18
  389. Thank you for the considerate sponsor message placement. I'm happy to watch all the way to the end in gratitude for the uninterrupted content.
    18
  390. With the music in the background during the intro, I feel like I'm living in breath of the wild while getting interesting science information. I'm gonna sub, don't know why I hadn't yet.
    18
  391. I’ve heard so many opinions about these fires, climate change, stupid humans, the government, etc. The thing is they are all right.
    18
  392. Best space site,
    18
  393. NASA is giving you 45 days or they will assume the worst.
    18
  394. I appreciate how you quietly ask for donations. There are a lot of channels out there that over emphasize their patreon accounts to the point that it feels like aggressive begging. Good video. Well narrated. And, I like how it sounded like you were talking to us, not reading from a page like people did back in primary school when they would read out loud in class or the way a first grade teacher would sound reading a book to a class of young children. That drives me nuts. I won't listen to those people's videos. Thank you for talking normal.
    18
  395. Lovely work. Love your channel, really enjoy how passionate you sound and how easy you make the science sound. Hope you have a great future with that channel.
    17
  396. Wow awesome!!! Thank you for sharing us about this!! It seems for me that when the day comes we could live here but not as a regular houses here on earth but more modern buildings like on the films we watched.. Well if the case is IF WE could live. Hahaha anyway I love your videos!!! 😊😊😊😊😊
    17
  397. This is great! I've only experienced a partial solar eclipse, and even that was breath taking. Thanks for sharing what it would look like in other parts of the solar system, as it is a true treat.
    17
  398. what about ELF mission to Enceladus by 2020?
    17
  399. You should change the name of this video to, “yes, the earth is round.”
    17
  400. Pluto winning is the redemption arc I’ve been waiting for.😊
    17
  401. I think this is by far the best description of planet compiled in a 10min video.
    17
  402. Great video man! All the best and congratulations :3
    17
  403. I also really enjoy your usual pace, stuff those algorithms! I look for Astrum if it doesn't come up automatically. I'll join when I can, can't expect something for nothing. This has been one of my top go-to channels for years, good to know it's still going - I was a bit worried seeing an announcement pop up.
    17
  404. You know what would prevent all geomagnetic storms from fatally damaging our power grid? Underground, insulated, transmission lines. Problem solved. It is mind numbingly idiotic that Puerto Rico didn't use this time to replace most or all of their damaged grid with subterranean lines. Immune to hurricanes and geomagnetic storms.
    16
  405. I absolutely love your channel! The videos are always chock-full of quality information, spectacular images that I've somehow never seen before, and the enthusiastic narration that can only come from someone who loves the subject. Thanks, and keep up the great work.
    16
  406. always click on an astrum notification as soon as it pops up, i love your stuff dude

  407. We LOVE ❤️ your CHANNEL. My kid (5) is ALSO fascinated by your vouce, your Content the way it is.
    16
  408. Amazing video Alex. We are dreaming of the moment when we can actually colonize the Red Planet. 🇧🇷😍☄

  409. Cassini-Huygens has no soul? Perhaps . . . . but it does contain the souls of its creators, its scientists, its engineers, its assemblers and technicians. Have you ever worked on a project of any magnitude? - I have - and without vision, dedication and mindfulness of all the participants you will not see full success.
    15
  410. WOW. This was an awesome video. Thanks Alex !
    15
  411. All I can say is thank you very much for posting this! I'm still amazed that flatties are commenting below in support of their cult narrative. Even after watching this video, but I'm actually guessing they didn't watch it, but have comments to make. So typical. Please watch the video then go outside and do the experiments for yourself. It is easy and you will see the round earth with your own eyes. Once again, thank you so much for posting this video. I will link to it whenever I run into a flatty which seems to be more and more often these days....*sigh*

  412. Congratulations... My favourite channel on YouTube ❤️

  413. Yeah, ESA have had quite the backlash from the scientific community over that and have promised to revisit their practices in future. It has to be said though their fears are potentially founded as external discoveries have been made in the past on the back of publicly released data. ESA have to justify their expense on their publishing output, so to just give their data straight off the mark could end up seeing the project abandoned by it's member nations who don't feel they get anything out of it. I guess that's an issue NASA never have to deal with. Still it's better than CNSA, where all we ever see are heavily edited highlights smeared with propaganda.
    15
  414. Man oh man that video of Saturn's moons was so amazing. To be able to see that with my own eyes is impossible so all I can say is thanks for such a great video and images.
    15
  415. That has to be the biggest canyon ever discovered on a different planet . And I wonder if we ever send people to Mars that the Canyon would be a spot of interest. Great video as always
    15
  416. Astrum, Cool Worlds and Event Horizon are the holy trinity of YT cosmology channels. With a nod to Sea, they're very good too. Best things about this channel besides the obvious would be; visuals that match the topic and a charismatic human narrator.
    15
  417. Congrats Alex! Astrum is a wicked cool channel and definitely one of my favorites ;)
    15
  418. I just discovered your channel and watching this in 4K is just magnificent
    15
  419. I like God's art style.
    15
  420. Such a better Video than Emmy awarded JPL effort. Beautiful and you teach something. And OK you probably used their graphics. But thank you for adding science and not just Madison Ave glitz. Hats off and Good Job - award winner in my book!!
    15
  421. I just LOVE your videos, I get to learn and be entertained at the same time! 'Sighs' I used to love the Discovery channel, and the History channel, too for the same reason. 😕 Please don't start doing Reality TV shows on gold miners and crabbing, I might well lose hope entirely! 😂

  422. Ok. Did you want more proof? You who has zero proof. 1. On a globe, the circumference of the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are equal, but, on a flat earth, the tropic of Capricorn would be 70% longer. What makes the sun slow down from December to June then speed up from June to December year after year? 2. What keeps the sun and moon in a circular motion above a stationary flat earth? 3. What causes the solar analemma? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQT5XRdrqvw 4. If you can see both the sun and moon during a selenelion eclipse, and they are at their maximum separation, why can't you see them all the time on a flat earth? 5. How can the earth's shadow fall on the moon at all (for a lunar eclipse) when the sun and moon are both 3000 miles above the flat earth? 6. How come the sun and moon disappear from view for hours at a time if they are 3000 miles above the flat earth? Or how do the sun and moon disappear behind the horizon on a flat earth? 7. If the Sun or moon leaves my perspective, why can I see the stars behind or above them? 8. What causes the phases of the moon? 9. What causes the tides? 10. What causes some planets to show a retrograde motion at times? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TK9ozJYELR8 11. How do the other observable planets disappear and reappear on a regular basis if the flat Earth is not moving? 12. Why are there two fixed stars (Polaris and Sigma Octantis) with a Coriolis Effect? Notice the clockwise motion in the southern hemisphere and the counter clockwise motion in the northern hemisphere, and why are the stars the same in the three southern continents? England and Australia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNiNJC3UHIo South Africa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvhAhCBPJk0 South America: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-VWJHRN7cw&t=23s 13. Why can't everyone on the flat earth see the same stars all the time? 14. Why do the stars in the flat earth model firmament dome always move horizontally anti-clockwise over the whole earth? 15. What happens to a super nova in the firmament? 16. What about the curve? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpAGXpusAiQ 17. What causes the aurora borealis and aurora australis, and why can't everyone see them? 18. Can you explain the ice wall during the Cretaceous period when the polar ice caps did not exist? 19. What have Ryan Waters and all the other polar explorers like Spear17 proved to you? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Antarctic_expeditions 20. What section of the Antarctic treaty prevents exploration? https://www.state.gov/t/avc/trty/193967.htm 21. What keeps us on the flat earth if not gravity because density and buoyancy do not account for acceleration? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyeF-_QPSbk 22. What causes a spherical drop of water? 23. What about Space? https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/3-as08-14-2383a.jpg 24. What about tectonic plates, earthquakes, and volcanoes (especially calderas) on a flat earth because no flat earther seems to know what is beneath the surface? 25. What about the 'firmament' and 'the four corners of the earth'? https://answersingenesis.org/astronomy/earth/does-bible-teach-earth-flat/ 26. What keeps the flat earth from flipping over and killing us all?

  423. Hi Alex! Great video -- you helped me learn some much about this awesome moon. I'm surprised you didn't mention APL's Dragonfly proposal for NASA's New Frontiers Program! APL hopes to send a quadcopter to explore Titan's surface... which may be one of the coolest unmanned space missions yet. It's in competition with another proposal, CESEAR (headed up by Cornell University). Learn more here about Dragonfly here... http://dragonfly.jhuapl.edu/index.php and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mk1zVxwq7O4 . Funny enough, I worked on this logo and website for this proposal! So, I'm very biased :P Assuming NASA chooses Dragonfly, you'll see a real mission to explore Titan sooner than expected!
    14
  424. One of my favorite books is Carl Sagan's "Contact". In the movie, as Jodie Foster is being taken from wormhole to wormhole, there is one scene where she comes upon a quad system, and tries to describe it. Instead, she breaks into tears and says "No words...poetry- they should have sent a poet". Looking at these Hubble images, and others I've seen, I couldn't agree more! What's really staggering to me are the distances. We are observing events that happened hundreds or thousands of years ago, even more! Finally, a bit off-topic, but I think most people wonder about the possibility of life elsewhere in the universe. I believe it to be more credible that there is, rather than that we are alone in all that vastness. Keep up the great work! P.S. money a little tight right now, but I will be making a donation soon. Well worth it!
    14
  425. I wish I could give you two "thumbs up".
    14
  426. What a feat!!! You doubled from 1M in two years, which is incredible!!!! Congratulations, Alex and Team ❤ We love you and your content ❤
    14
  427. Congratulations on 100k
    14
  428. Thanks!
    14
  429. Congratulations, mate! I'm sick as a dog, and I have to hit the sack, but I will look forward to watching this fully tomorrow. Your work on this channel is fantastic. Edit - Thank you for this video profile. It's always nice to have a face for the voice, and I feel like I know you a little now. I'd love to check out your other "secret" channel, though. Keep up the terrific work.
    14
  430. What drawers me to your chanel is the obvious I can't wrap my mind around most of the math and physics but in my sole where I don't need to understand the nuts and bolts of space and time is a curiosity that is insatiable for information. Thanks for the video.
    14
  431. Always worth the wait for a quality and informative video. 👍🏻
    14
  432. I was kind of sad when you said, "This is the last image I'll show you today."
    14
  433. Its upsetting to see the struggle you went through with youtubes copyright scandle, but on the other hand at least this video was still amazing! Thankyou for the informative video :) I loved it.
    14
  434. Probably the most professional channel for the universe on YouTube with real images which is fascinating. Keep up the good work!
    14
  435. I just love how you can hear your smile as you narrate. I can't help but smile as well.
    14
  436. I've just come from viewing many other YouTube posts about NASA fakery, never a moon landing, etc. I view these for the entertainment value, and for the chuckles I get from some of the comments. I came here for my daily dose of reality, and wasn't disappointed! Very refreshing, and great job on the presentation. As an avid hiker/climber, I would love to climb some of those mountains, maybe even O. Mons. The 38% gravity would sure help! As an avid, OLD hiker, I know it ain't gonna happen! I was 12 in 1969, and witnessed magic! Two men were walking on ground not of the Earth! I was old enough to understand a little bit about the technology, but young enough to feel the magic. Before my time comes, I would dearly love to feel that magic again. Let's get out there, and put some bootprints on Mars! Regarding your presentation- this is proof positive that Mars was once very geologically active, especially in light of the different rock layers. I feel it is very possible that life may have arisen on Mars at one point, even if only at the microbial stage. Imagine what we could learn if we discovered evidence of that! By the way- I was shocked to learn recently that the Earth is a spheroid. Who knew?!
    13
  437. What a great video. More thorough than anything I’ve seen on TV.
    13
  438. Im stuck in the rain at the moment this is perfect
    13
  439. This was a lovely farewell to Cassini! Saturn's resonance waves reminds me so much to a 80's vinyl...and Cassini as a turntable needle, playing Saturn's song for last time.
    13
  440. I love how existential philosophical questions overlap with astrophysics in so many of your videos. They awaken wonder, which is at the roots of wisdom, in my opinion.
    13
  441. I thought it was a click bait title... another awesome video instead! And I am now a little scared :)
    13
  442. Excellent video. Visuals not on long enough. Had to keep pausing. Keep up the good work.
    13
  443. ok... I'm just gonna say it it upfront so you can get all the laughs out, but... Uranus is My Favorite. yeah... yeah... laugh it up! Anyway... after watching all these vids in your series (which are very well produced)... I changed my fav. I used to be a Mars or Saturn guy.... but Now Id have to admit that Uranus has left an impression on me. It seems a pretty mystifying planet and I like the enigma of it. Also... I am completely mezmerized by the pic of it @0:13 . I wish someone would explain exactly what this pic of Uranus is. Great videos.
    13
  444. Now I'm binge watching your videos. They're all very, very well done. Did you reach "full-time" status yet? You have a lot of subscribers, but I'm rather ignorant on what or how many subscribers it takes to take a YouTube channel full time. If you haven't reached it yet, I'm rooting for you!!
    13
  445. Suscriber comment... Was waiting for a full, comprehensive video about the explosion... with a little bit of visualisation porn. You nailed it. Thanks for your great work - and for going slightly off topic. Appreciate it
    13
  446. Alex could use the title Astromancer, it would be quite fitting lol
    12
  447. I love your picture, it was just the perfect touch for this video! Gotta rock on Mars, Earth or while being crashed on the surface of a Neutron star 😂😂😂
    12
  448. Wow! These are truly awesome images. Thanks so much. Just beautiful.
    12
  449. At 4:30 I paused: READ this additional info: The law of conservation of angular momentum is the WHOLE story here. All is good in Astrum's explain here, but now the cold dark cloud is collapsing around an AXIS of rotation and all particles with small radius from this axis (the poles N and S as it were) feel very little centrifugal force, so they collapse toward the middle. The particles at large radius experience a large centrifugal force so they tend to stay at their radius and not fall into the star. It's a sine function, so when sin(90) =1, then the centrifugal force is at a maximum, this is 90 degrees to the axis of rotation (the poles). As the cloud of gas falls in its rotational speed goes up, so does the centrifugal force on all particles, but that is a maximum at sin(90), therefore eventually all particles end up in a disc around the central axis of rotation, where the resistance to fall into the star is at a maximum. I will explain "centrifugal" and "centripetal" forces as a matter of reference frame if asked. Cheers.
    12
  450. Honestly I just found your channel less than a month ago, and I’ve been absolutely blown away by how much you’ve taught me about space and our universe. As long as you’re still teaching me new things I’ll keep watching. You also do a good job in keeping my ADD focused. Keep up the good work man.
    12
  451. So after your University Final video assignment you've monetized the channel to Skill Share. Can't say I blame you, as it will bring in money to finance textbooks, equipment, etc.. Just one last thing Alex... If you can see your way to giving a few quid to the co-students in your year group then you really will have given something to Science, not just us YouTube hangers-on who really have nothing to contribute. Good luck in your post-grad career.
    12
  452. Fantastic work! I hope this gets in front of some folks who can make a difference.
    12
  453. great work, another twelve minutes of interstellar travel.
    12
  454. ALEX, HEY ALEX Where do you go on the red planet if you want a beer? You go to a Mars Bar, Alex. A mars bar. * runs away *
    12
  455. What a brilliant video. The BBC and others could not surpass this. All of that knowledge brought together in a digestible form. Inspiring and emotional for me.
    12
  456. it's hard to believe how miniscule we are
    12
  457. We very much appreciate it.
    12
  458. This is a pure example of a mind-boggling video! In love with JUPITER! +Astrum
    12
  459. Incredible ideas! Thank you for sharing that. Keep making videos like that and smart people will continue sharing resources. Perhaps one day the offspring of great Youtubers can live indefinitely on the royalties what the original Youtubers produced.
    12
  460. Same thing happened to me too. That throwing off responsibilty occurs in every group project I had. It's primordial instinct. We human like to slack off and It's fine as long as luck is with us...I hope.
    12
  461. wait., google earth has mars and moon in it too? when did this happened? cant wait for other planets too!!
    12
  462. This is the most absorbing and entertaining video I've seen in a long time. Knowing something and seeing it are two very different things - and I had absolutely no idea that the Curiosity Rover was capable of real-time video! I realise that there is generally nothing moving on the surface of Mars, but I wonder if it's possible to capture real-time video of a dust storm.
    12
  463. I cant wait for the next video of this series. also, I approve of your sponsor! Looks like a great place to learn some useful skills! :)
    12
  464. I war looking for this comment. 🤣
    11
  465. Surprised no planks here saying CGI and space is fake... Makes a change. Great vid
    11
  466. The passion felt for a machine is amazing. I was heart broken when Cassani waved goodbye.
    11
  467. I've seen three partial eclipses, never been fortunate enough to see totality. However, in 2023 there will be an eclipse within an hour's drive from where I live. I'm already making plans!
    11
  468. New video 😮 Great Job! 😁
    11
  469. My favourite channel
    11
  470. hey man, this is the best real ASTRUM chanel. keep this going please
    11
  471. I really enjoy this series. I just now stumbled across it and I'm enchanted. Well Done and up to date in the years it was produced. Thank You.
    11
  472. Always great seeing Astrum in my sub feed
    11
  473. I was in college when Stardust-NExt met up with Temple 1. The complexity of the necessary calculations needed to ensure that the spacecraft rendezvoused at the exact time to image the crater left by Deep Impact collision are difficult to wrap your head around! I have a science degree and am good at math, but I can’t even think how intricate and precise those calculations must have been, so when the mission was a success, I was extraordinarily impressed. The DART mission was the next leap forward for the study of near earth objects and the ability to detect and divert potential collisions with our home planet. The science done by the exceptionally brilliant scientists in the space agencies is evolving exponentially every mission.
    11
  474. Very much appreciate these videos. You explain things well. And as I have said before, you seem to present these in such a way that keeps my interest. I have enjoyed listening watching and plan on supporting you as much as I can, when I have opportunity. Big thanks again, and please don’t stop making these. I’m sure it’s difficult sometimes researching and production. And hope I can help in anyway. I’ve been watching every single morning now for almost a year. Really gets my mind moving. Really, who needs coffee? Can’t wait for next episode. Eric
    11
  475. The most beautiful part of it all, there's always so much to learn and discover
    11
  476. thanks for putting it back, but dang the copywriter thing sucks. I loved the original - This video really got me interested in space exploration again. Thank you for that!
    11
  477. This is an astonishing video! Well done. It's actually kind of terrifying to think how reliant we are on technology and electricity to survive day to day and how unprepared we are for such a disastrous event that we have no way of predicting. Governments need to stop arguing over who is responsible for what and just get to upgrading everything so we don't fall back into the medieval times if something like the carrington event or bigger were to happen. Anyway, i hope you get a fantastic grade for this. Good luck! <3
    11
  478. Really good video! Calmly presented, based on observable facts anyone can verify. Clearly made as a thoughtful response to the many FE videos on YouTube. Of course the FE community will throw abuse at it in the comments. But not one of them will be able to present a coherent rebuttal, simply because they can't. There is no coherent argument for FE!
    11
  479. Congrats Alex!! You've deserved it with all the excellent content you have made! From a happy long time subscriber from Germany... Cheers mate!
    11
  480. Yet another intriguing video! Well done! 🚀
    11
  481. Keep it up ! Multi-channel is the way to go.
    11
  482. love all your videos, I find them all very interesting. I look forward to seeing your work in the future.
    11
  483. I'll watch your videos regardless of where you take this channel, especially if it's for sleep! You have a terrific voice for narration!😊
    10
  484. Another absolutely awe inspiring presentation Alex, thank you very much.
    10
  485. I enjoy your videos, especially your detailed mission narratives. You use appropriate grammar for science writing and that is so refreshing on Ye Olde Tube. You label each image to avoid misunderstanding, and support every claim you make with the available evidence, providing clear and resolvable thesis. Thank you.
    10
  486. I love your cool, interesting videos Alex of Astrum! There's nothing more fascinating than the ultimate size of our galaxy and the miraculous solar systems it provides. There is so much glory in the miracle of our lives here on this planet, in our modern day. To even be able to view videos as this is a very new occurrence for civilization. We are very lucky people to be alive on this planet. A planet that at this time, it's just the right distance and climate to able to produce an atmosphere for us to live, as well as food and water for us to survive with. Hooray for Earth in our so called year, 2018. Lol. It's very great to be alive. I wish everyone nothing but the best. I know that there are many many people on Earth who have or who are now suffering. My only hope is that life on planet Earth gets better for all as the unwavering, unceasing flow of time passes. Do your best. Always strive to improve. Set goals. Love life. Try your best to be healthy. Let's all wish, hope, and pray for the betterment of all Earth peoples in this glorious, miraculous floating circular rock out in outter space we live on. I don't want our civilizations and societies to lose its humanity. We must never forget to always keep our hearts and souls in the right place. We are so lucky to be alive in the first technological boom in our recollection.

    10
  499. You always make super interesting videos and I learn a lot from you! Keep it up :D
    10
  500. Great video ❤️❤️ Just asking for fun. Would you go to Mars if Elon musk ask you to go as the first astronaut with someone else? Who will be the other person?
    10
  501. Astrum, I just want to thank you for all your work. I watch these videos all the time on repeat. They are especially fun when I'm playing Star Trek Online. Your supercut of the Opportunity Rover brings a tear to my eye every time; I'm a grown man and that f***** robot makes me cry. Thank you for all your work. If I ever do decide to finally bite the bullet and start donating to Patreon, Astrum and Forgotten Weapons will be top of the list (for different/same reasons. I love history and I love exploration). If you guys made an audio set (like CD's), I'd listen to your works while driving. Just saying
    10
  502. This is the best video I have ever seen!!!! 🌌
    10
  503. You deserve 10M subscribers
    10
  504. Astrum I love astronomy and I think your videos are fantastic. I always watch whatever you post as soon as I can. Keep up the good work. Also you do a great job narrating as well, solid and engaging voice! 👌
    10
  505. Excellent!
    10
  506. I just subbed. i so wish i found your channel awhile ago. Great content!! very well put together. I have a similar subscriber base so i know how tough itis to build a channel up like this. You def have my support. Do you have a patreon i can go donate too?
    10
  507. Man I've missed your videos, great job!

  533. Brilliant video as always. Thanks! Personally I worry about the deminishing solar activity not about life on other places than earth. Maintaining life here would be a much larger problem to solve in the near future when the next glaciation phase is on going.
    9
  534. Thank you for your videos, I have learned so much from them and that is such a priceless gift. Thank you again!

  535. true compelling pictures, you have a new sub.

  536. Keep up your natural, informative lectures, it's a pleasure for us space freaks! 😉😊

  537. I really love your point of reference I'm so proud of you keep up the good work a lot of people are oblivious to how far away the planets are from the Sun. Remember when we were kids and we learned about the Sun and all the planets that were practically so close to each other but that was so deceiving because in actuality their Millions even billions of kilometers away from each other or apart by the time you get to Pluto it's almost a 9-year Journey from Earth to Pluto so keep it up man I'm going to watch all your videos thumbs up to you and I'm definitely subscribing. Now by the way if Alpha Centauri is our closest star and you traveled a tremendous amount over 5 km by car now remember how close those planets were to the Sun and our nearest star Alpha Centauri is by car far away just space alone is just tremendously huge it's incomprehensible the distances that are covered are just too fast even if we were able to travel by light it's just not practical we need to be able to materialize at another part of the universe without traveling at the speed of light maybe like a wormhole or something or going into a black hole I don't know

  538. Man I really enjoy your content, when I want great visuals and relaxing yet interesting / inspiring/ educating stuff I come here, and when I want very indepth knowledge about some seriously confusing stuff I watch PBS Space Time. Thanks for making these videos!

  539. One of my favourite channels on youtube <3
    8
  540. Astrum, the information you give is so interesting, I tolerate the plunky and annoying background music, just to hear what you have to say.
    8
  541. I found it 6 years ago and I have been hooked.
    8
  542. 😊we can wait for ur videos.... good luck with ur plans
    8
  543. So well done, inspirational. Makes me count my lucky stars!
    8
  544. Thank you for the great video. It makes me want to go out in my back yard and look at all the science ( dirt ).
    8
  545. Thanks for this post. I recently started watching your videos with some regularity. I find your insightful content refreshing and I appreciate less drama and more meaning. Again, thanks for sharing your dreams!
    8
  546. This is the first video I've watched on your channel, and I'm suitably impressed. I've learnt more in this short video than I did in my whole schooling.
    8
  547. Great channel with good content
    8
  548. This is a video of excellence and fine research
    8
  549. '...if there are some things I have done wrong I will always try to mend them and not to make similar mistakes in future!' That simple goal would save the world, but for now, it'll produce high-quality science entertainment. Thanks, Astrum!
    8
  550. Congratulations Alex! I've watched ALL Astrum videos. I love what you share with us and look forward to more! These videos are so interesting and the music is calming. I can't say enough about how much I enjoy this channel. Great job!
    8
  551. Awesome! Bummed you're married though 😂

  552. Jupiter's Mass is about 1/1047th the Sun's. But because Jupiter orbits at about 779 million KM, which is more than 1048 times the Sun's radius of ~696,000km, the center of mass is outside the Sun. Were Jupiter ~85 million km closer, the barycenter would be inside the Sun.

  553. Ohhh could this be my first FIRST COMMENT
    8
  554. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ALEX!! ❤🎈🎉🎁😘
    8
  555. I must say that this is one of the most terrifying videos I’ve ever seen. This is a superlative wake-up call that must be disseminated worldwide. I’m stunned that more people are not talking about this. But I am optimistic that humanity will take the necessary actions before the next Carrington event. Thankfully the sun is expected to be exceptionally inactive in the next few decades which will make such CMEs far less probable. But the menace is still terrifying.Superb work Alex!
    8
  556. I spotted Venus today from India around 8pm..! It was beautiful 😍 though couldn't get a very clear image as I don't have a amazing camera
    8
  557. Been making my way through your vids bro. They’re absolutely fantastic
    8
  558. All the best buddy. We all are with you.
    8
  559. I've started listening to your videos as I go to sleep, your voice is as soothing as your videos are educational <3
    8
  560. Thanks I may not be a scientist I'm not highly educated. But I do have a curious mind and I do appreciate you sharing this with us keep it up and thank you very much.
    8
  561. Thanks for adding “some “ of all the planets, planetoids and belts. Very interesting. I’m from Orlando.
    8
  562. Very noticeable to watch and to enjoy. Well presented and superbly researched. Thank you for your contribution to our profession.
    8
  563. You have such a talent for efficiently conveying information. I watch quite a lot of educational videos (covering a variety of topics) and I have to say that this video is superior in quality to the vast majority of content created by the more heavily funded educational channels on YT. You've certainly earned my sub, I'm excited to watch the rest of your content. Keep it up!
    8
  564. ...dont give up man...your videos are great
    8
  565. I knew he was always smiling! Everyone knew!! :D
    8
  566. It’s it amazing that meteors always seem to land in craters? How do they know!?
    8
  567. Great images and very well explained for the layman. Great work. Many thanks !
    8
  568. Just another grateful viewer her Astrum appreciating your hard work for these videos. Great info presented in well-timed and professional way, accompanied by ridiculously stunning images and a narrator who's both knowledgeable and sounds genuinely interested in space. Keep it up Astrum, I'll support you on patreon as soon as my own financial situation improves, I promise
    8
  569. Amazing, so relaxing Subscribed!
    8
  570. Alex my brother!!! I hope you haven't forgotten me... I am still alive and healthy... 😁 Forgot to catch up with you, its been a quite a while I guess more than 5 or 6 years and I was very busy. Been travelling the road of life with its ups and downs along with our planet in this universe. Hope all is well with you and your family too. Your child must have been grown up by now. You take care and keep me in your prayers... 🙂
    8
  571. I’ve been telling everyone in my circle to look up at the night sky for Mars this past week. Now I’ll be texting them your video as well. Thanks!
    8
  572. Awesome... as ever. And those few thumbs down are as baffling as ever.
    8
  573. I love all your videos I've watched everyone. Do I want more like this absolutely and I'm so appreciative of all your hard work to make such an excellent quality video
    8
  574. This is television grade documentary, mostly made by just one guy, good work man ! :)
    8
  575. Just subscribed to another amazing science channel. Wonderful video
    8
  576. Wonderful. My interest in Mars has inspired me to begin to learn about geology, in hopes of a better understanding of what I am seeing in images from mars and other planets and moons. thanks much for posting these killer images.
    8
  577. The sentence "The galaxy will soon retain its normal shape" makes me question the blink of our existence. Thanks for the beatiful video
    8
  578. Your timing is perfect tonight with this great video . I'm suffering from insomnia and needed something to do . ☺👍
    8
  579. Q: Is there any way to escape a black hole? A: Yes...don't ever go near it.
    8
  580. ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! Especially, if you have a 4K monitor. So much detail...its dead and rustic surface is incredibly stunning.
    8
  581. Whoa! Face reveal! Not what I expected!
    8
  582. I love learning about the other planets in our solar system! Thank you!
    8
  583. As with your other videos, this has very high educational value which your excellent script together which great narrative skill makes them quit astounding. In this one, you humanized InSight so well that at the end I felt a pang of sadness out of place for a machine. Congratulations and please don't get bored with making these videos.
    8
  584. I love your channel dude, keep doing this great work, thanks!
    8
  585. Thanks for taking the time to make the video for us. Much love.
    8
  586. Thanks Alex, your videos hit the sweet-spot with just enough depth of science, yet do not scare away the casual but interested layman. Your calm and relaxed vocal delivery beats the far too common 'Oh my God!' far too excited delivery of most American professional productions. I sincerely congratulate you, I find your videos enthralling, and always answer questions that have come to me over the years. You remind me of the great David Attenborough, whose delivery is above compare in his field. With your meticulous research, and understanding of your subject, I hope you might find yourself walking in David's footsteps on a professional level, but in the Astronomy field. So few people seem to notice that we have an amazing Star just a short distance away from our planet, to which all life owes its existence. Many thanks for your hard work on each and every production you make, and please continue to inform me...I can't think of another YT channel as succinct as yours on this subject :)
    8
  587. Congrats Alex your 2m subs are richly deserved & your content is up there with the best on youtube.
    8
  588. Thanks

  589. Good things are worth waiting for. Keep up the great work and kick ass at Uni!
    7
  590. Thank you for providing these space videos.I think your channel is one of the most crucial to publish space related videos.
    7
  591. Please finish your hubble picture series ☺️
    7
  592. So this 1 mm sun can be seen 30 km away? This is mind boggling
    7
  593. Hi, I watch a lot of astronomy videos on YouTube and have seen quite a few on Cassini. Your video, I would categorically say, is the best I have seen in years. The accompanying detail and insight you have provided for the images is well researched and awe inspiring. Thanks for putting in the effort to make this video and please continue to make more. Cheers, Ali 🙂👍
    7
  594. This is absolutely amazing, simply spectacular.
    7
  595. just by looking at that red spot in night you cant imagine that would be so beautiful. jaw dropping spectacular photos. and thanks to you alex we are able to enjoy MARS.really thank you.
    7
  596. Great video! Only one complaint that has nothing to do with you - why are the rings not in alphabetical order?!? Ugh! That would bug me so much. Lol! Seriously, I love your videos. You do a really great job explaining things & you narrate well.
    7
  597. Astrum your work is excellent and greatly appreciated.
    7
  598. Thanks for those amazing videos
    7
  599. Wow bud.... I'm new to your channel,lovely images and info👍
    7
  600. Very cool stuff
    7
  601. I saw last year’s total eclipse. I hope that anyone who hasn’t seen a total eclipse will do so! They are fairly common, just all over the Earth. A partial eclipse (even 99%) doesn’t count! Totality is a distinct and stunning visual.
    7
  602. 31: Hanny's Voorwerp - I recall the moment Dutch schoolteacher Hanny van Arkel first drew attention to her "strange blue blob" (it's actually green, but the filters used at the time made it appear blue) on the Galaxy Zoo forum, thus starting a chain of events that saw Galaxy Zoo allotted time on the Hubble Telescope to examine the object closer, propelling Hanny to the status of a minor star in the astronomy world. There's an interesting piece by the BBC on Hanny and the Galaxy Zoo project, which I would recommend anyone with an interest in Astronomy to check out; it's one of the premier Citizen Science projects and already has an impressive array of papers published on the many and varied findings of the galactic survey undertaken - I hope it isn't too much of a liberty to provide links here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-40558759 Galaxy Zoo: https://blog.galaxyzoo.org/
    7
  603. Loved this! Thanks
    7
  604. Such amazing detail I've yet to see from any other Astro related videos. Great work!
    7
  605. I used some of the same parts used in Cassini when I worked for a space contractor for GPS third generation satellites. In designs, Cassini stood as one mission that could be considered as benchmark since it had successfully traveled through space. Typical mission time for a satellite is around 15 years. Due to space radiation, electronics parts age very quickly and make the circuits inoperable. This happens despite using radiation hardened parts and systems. Thanks to Cassini for all information it had provided...
    7
  606. Astrum i read this in your voice
    7
  607. I must say that this is one of the most terrifying videos I’ve ever seen. This is a superlative wake-up call that must be disseminated worldwide. I’m stunned that more people are not talking about this. But I am optimistic that humanity will take the necessary actions before the next Carrington event. Thankfully the sun is expected to be exceptionally inactive in the next few decades which will make such CMEs far less probable. But the menace is still terrifying. Superb work Alex!
    7
  608. Thanks for reminding me how spectacular Mars is. It's easy to forget and just think of it as a dead wasteland.
    7
  609. Alex, thank you so much for another great video. One of the reasons I like your channel so much is that you use REAL images where a lot of similar channels do not (they use high def artist imaginings and so forth). The effort and detail that goes into each and every one of your post is incredible. I always look forward to new posts. But I do wonder, how do you feel about some of these new discoveries of "Earth like" planets? More importantly how do these planets get discovered? I've always wondered. Is it data received from the Voyager probes? I know they're still transmitting, but I'm curious as to what. Hopefully that gives you some new ideas as to future vids. Once again thank you for all the hard work, science, and imagery. :)
    7
  610. I haven't seen ur video for a long time good to see it again
    7
  611. Exactly. Already subscribed and liking immediately.
    7
  612. Astounding views, sir! Love your Vids and I could listen all day! 👍
    7
  613. Great video. Interesting and informative as always. Thank you.
    7
  614. Thank you for a wonderful video along with great explanation.
    7
  615. I really missed your vedios man
    7
  616. The contrast and comparison distances even by Earth measurements vs space is still crazily INSANE.
    7
  617. Merry Christmas
    7
  618. Fascinating & so well done. The music was perfect. Your narration is excellent. The only issue I had was understanding Dr. Sergei Zharkov. His accent is quite thick & he spoke a little too softly. Maybe subtitles for his part? I really appreciate how well you explained this topic in easy-to-understand language. Thanks for your work! I can't wait to see more.
    7
  619. Wow u alive bro :-)
    7
  620. Astrum: Thank you for this lesson. It filled in a lot of blanke for me.
    7
  621. Great, I'll be watching NASA Monday!
    7
  622. The Twin Jet nebula is pretty narly. The merging galaxies was pretty cool to see. Ah-maze-zing. .. Great Video! I've always loved your work brother brother!
    7
  623. Congratulations on a massive and well deserved achievement. Looking forward to the next 2 million.
    7
  624. Another great video with a beautiful voice :)
    7
  625. I love this channel! Dude I can't believe I didn't know our knowledge of Uranus's rings came through observing an occultation! Thanks to this vid I ferreted out the original 1977 Elliot et al paper and found the discovery was not only mind-blowing but accidental! Thanks man, LOVE IT, made my day!
    7
  626. You, Sir, are a very good teacher / sharer of knowledge. Concise, clear, simple and very well articulated. Presented for easy absorption. Sincerity and humility are easily consumed. False pride and filler are not very palatable. Thank you.
    7
  627. I've been waiting for your video for ages.. You are the best youtuber about cosmos!
    7
  628. Steven Wiederholt I urge you to focus less on the fire and climate regimes of the Cambrian and Cenozoic (etc.) and instead focus on the quaternary (aka the past 40k-ish years), because that’s the ecosystem that we currently live under. You are correct that we are currently in an extended interglacial period, and that the climate has been warming since the end of the last ice age. HOWEVER, the RATE of change is what’s really important here. No where in the climate record can we find conditions where atmospheric CO2 increased at the rate it has in the past 200 years. Likewise, there is no evidence of a rate of change in global temperature like we have seen in the past 200 years. THAT is the evidence that PROVES that humans ARE having an ENORMOUS impact on the Earth’s climate. An increase in fire activity and severity is just one of the symptoms of these changes. There is virtually NO DOUBT about that in quaternary paleo- ecology and climatology.
    7
  629. My pleasure. Thank you for the video. Have not seen it yet. Waiting for 4k.
    7
  630. Actually more professional than a lot of "professional" videos by now. I love how you hit the mark so clearly on the interesting information and invest your time into high quality, aesthetically pleasing images. I like to think that this is due to your genuine interest in the topic, while lots of content (especially commercial content) is created on demand.
    7
  631. ASTRUM is, for me, a solid, rich, engaging channel. So many times, I've longed to escape from the shallow and depleating torrent of videos that are so prevalent on YouTube. I particularly enjoy how you present and narrate each video. Calm, intelligent, and captivating - really easy to take in. I've learned so much from ASTRUM. It has given answers to wonder, and I THANK YOU so much! Please continue the excellent work, and I look forward to being a patron. Cheers
    7
  632. lets gooo! great channel my dude
    7
  633. George G. I agree. EVERYONE SHARE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE! 👍😁
    7
  634. ... So, what's the real estate values for these prime locations?
    7
  635. This series is totally mesmerizing. For those 12 minutes I was lost in the outer space. Your each picture was carefully chosen and well explained. Hope to see for wonderful videos and all the best for future.
    7
  636. I LOVE your channel. To hell with YouTube's addiction to noise, smut, and "fast-paced" content. You have a class operation. Keep it up please
    7
  637. Amazing! Thank you for your work. Greetings from Brazil!
    7
  638. That is one gorgeous countryside! Many places that I have either visited or seen in a photo/movie/video seem so similar to either where I live or where I have visited. But your area is breathtaking! Also I wanted to complement the nice, subtle background music— well done! Thanks for your quality and interesting videos!
    7
  639. 4:37 Fantastic! 😂👍🏻

  640. @Paul Hotson Sorry if I was being unclear: I was searching for references to scientific papers. YouTube is rarely a source of information -- usually it's just people offering a way to look at information (or often, misinformation). But I watched a couple of videos from that channel you linked (I didn't know it before). Sadly, often I couldn't find sources in the video description. The one video I watched with a source in the description was the one about the IPCC Official. The original source is in German -- luckily I do speak German, so I read the interview. Unfortunately, the video doesn't truthfully reflect what was said in the interview. Ottmar Edenhofer did not at all say that "global warming is a lie". Instead, the interview is about the challenges we need to face in order to tackle climate change. Because yes, reducing CO2 emissions is not just about the climate, but obviously about economy, too. Restricting ourselves from doing certain things has a bigger impact on some than on others. A complete ban on CO2 emission, for example, would obviously hurt the ones with the most resources of gas, oil and coal. So: climate change is not a lie to redistribute wealth, but in tackling climate change, some wealth redistribution could happen and we should take care to not disrupt the global economy too much. That's basically the gist of the interview. Edenhofer ends the interview by saying that we (as humanity) have to find a way to get a CO2-free world-economy. So please don't treat YouTube channels as source of information or at least check the information yourself before spreading it. EDIT: Sorry, I didn't see your edit! About that video: I'm very happy that the source is linked in the description, very nice. I skimmed that paper. (Let's just assume here that the data from the paper is correct). Many conclusions in the video are sadly not backed by the actual data. What's true: there have been periods where the CO2 concentration was way higher than it is today. But in the last (roughly) 5 million years, CO2 concentration never reached 400ppm, and being around 300ppm for the past roughly 2,5 million years. It should be clear that their measurements don't include the current value (on a graph spanning 40 million years, the last 200 years are pretty small). So, according to their data, our current value of roughly 410ppm is higher than the last couple of million years. Was the concentration higher in the past? Yes. But earth looked way different back then.
    7
  641. Has it been ten years already? Time flies.
    7
  642. Spectacular !👍
    7
  643. Amazing research and visualizations! So glad I found your channel my friend.
    7
  644. Awesome video, very interesting, most informative with superb narration. Thank you.
    6
  645. Freaking fantastic doc' please keep making videos. This is quality content thank you 🙏🏽👏🏽 you are 💯🎆🎆🎇 bravo!
    6
  646. That was so heart felt...I am not going to lie tI thought you were going to end the channel so I started to tear up....um...there's an onion ...i left in my room. I love your work! I shall tell my space loving friends to become members and if they dont ( Dont let my adorable profile photo fool you) I shall flood them with my horrible singing voice with 90s Mariah highnotes. Thank you so much again for your heard work!
    6
  647. Thank you Alex, most delicious eye candy!
    6
  648. Congratulations, you deserve it!
    6
  649. First. Love your videos

  651. ESA only came into existence in 1975 when the European nations decided to amalgamate their various space projects. Voyager was launched shortly after so it's not really a fair comparison. NASA even in it's enfeebled state today is still funded with over 3 times as much money as ESA, so on that metric alone, it's never going to be much of a "contest". There's very little technological discrepancy between NASA and ESA. On the science capability side of things the agencies are equals. If this were not the case then NASA wouldn't keep including European instruments on nearly all their missions - they'd source their own instead. NASA have abundantly more flight experience of course, and when it comes to Mars missions NASA are king. Incidentally ESA are the only agency to have performed landings in the outer solar system - both with Philae and Huygens (although Huygens was carried to it's destination by a NASA craft). There's upcoming missions from ESA which will certainly put their capabilities to the test. One is JUICE - the Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer and the other is the ExoMars rover. Given ESA's 100% failure rate with Mars landers, a lot of pride is riding on that latter one!
    6
  652. You did a great job! If I didn't read that this was a project you completed for a class at your University, I would have never known. It's something you would see on the Science Channel here in the US.
    6
  653. Simply amazing. I love this channel. Astrum you rock.
    6
  654. Amazing video
    6
  655. Your channel is awesome. I always learn something new when watching your videos, and the production value is incredible! This particular video was pretty scary.. I had no idea we would be so vulnerable to a huge CME.
    6
  656. You give me faith for future generations, thanks for all of your hard work and sharing your passion with us♥
    6
  657. Thank you Alex. Very much enjoy your videos xx
    6
  658. great video.. such amazing natural beauty. thanks!
    6
  659. Your videos are awesome, thank you.
    6
  660. The boom is back! :-D
    6
  661. A stunning image, that still amazes me, and a really informative video.
    6
  662. when u said cleethorpes astronomical society... I was like wut.. i live there lol.
    6
  663. I'd give you two thumbs up if I could. Another excellent video.
    6
  664. Again, amazing!
    6
  665. You know, I think your videos are the best I have ever seen on space and astronomy! They're full of fascinating facts and information, but you never sensationalise them or dumb them down, keeping the viewer's attention with quality images and animations, and your very obvious love for the subject. In these days where the majority of television and film (and politics in my opinion) consists largely of a constantly re-stated celebration of ignorance, boorishness, and science denial, these videos are like a shot of concentrated hope and enthusiasm for humanity. I know that sounds overly dramatic, but I always feel better about our species after watching them.
    6
  666. I just want to thank you for taking your time to make these amazing videos. My family LOVES watching those. You are doing a wonderful job.
    6
  667. Absolutely the best channel for astronomy, far better than terrestrial TV. The BBC should have you to breathe life into the sky at night programme which I can take or leave these days.
    6
  668. Thanks for the gentle reminder that there's no place like home! I hope you enjoy the cup of tea that this meager contribution will, no doubt, require you to make yourself, at home😉
    6
  669. great job Alex! subscribed after watching one video:)
    6
  670. Just cuz I love the calmness of your voice delivering me wordmash, the whole channel, all the cool animations, celestial photos, the free information, etc.. nah sign me up! Never actually paid no patreon or anything like that. Most channels don’t really last and get drowned out but I’ve been consistently watching this channel for a while now and it only makes sense to support. I getcha now bro!
    6
  671. Awesome videos. Very informative with great photos and visuals. Saw your first video, subbed, and now watched every video about all the planets. Keep up the great work!
    6
  672. excellent video thanks so much for making it
    6
  673. It felt odd when it bumped into me.Omg he Liked and hearted it! Thank you!

  674. Venus used to be my favorite looking planet ever (2009-2013). What changed it was i thought that was the true looks of venus, it's very appealing and beautiful. I thought that if i grow up, i want to be the first human to go to venus and reveal its heaven looking like. In all of the sudden, a hellish looking world beneath the appealing looks change every perspective in my ambition to became an astronaut. I was scared and feared to go to venus. But it certainly doesn't change my memories to how beautiful does venus look like with the cloud. And now, my favorite planet was Mars or Titan (Saturn's largest moon) even though Titan wasn't a planet, it's the least chance to discover alien life since its atmosphere is thick and have a liquid methane and ethane and have a frozen ice of H2O. I know this doesn't even matter to you but thanks to those read it fully.

  685. Wow, wow, wow wow wow, wow wow. That's not me doing a text based Owen Wilson impression; That's me being blown away. This was an amazing video! Never have I seen a piece of media that drew me in so instantly. I felt that every second that played I was learning something new and profound that I could easily understand (at a surface level), even though I try to learn as much about space as I can. The only thing I could say in critique is that sources where I could read further would be an amazing bonus (unless brilliant.org is your source). Great work! I am tuned in and will be sharing!

  689. I've been a fan of space documentaries since I was little, but I've never seen half of the footage and images you're showing. Not to mention the detailed information I've always wondered about. Thank you so much for your hard and passionate works

  696. I wanna give you an experiment example that you can try yourself in order to understand why galaxies are moving away from each other even tho every matter in the universe attract each other gravitationally. Get a rubber band and a pencil. First I want you to imagine a rubber band as space. Then draw 2 dots on the rubber band with a pencil and imagine them as galaxies. Then hold rubber band on 2 sides pull it to stretch. And imagine it as the expansion of the universe. What you see is galaxies are separating away from each other as the universe expands. And get a 2nd rubber band and draw 2 dots again but draw them a bit further away this time. Hold both rubber bands and pull them together. Now you will see that the further the dots are the faster the separation. And now imagine that dots are 2 ants and they are trying to move towards each other. if they are closer, they separate slower with pulling so even tho they move slowly they eventually will catch each other. But if you put them further they need to walk faster in order to catch or they cannot overcome rubber bands separation. And even tho they move towards each other on the rubber band, you will still see them moving away from each other if they are distant enough or if you pull bands faster enough. Think about that 2 ants who can meet together and overcome the expansion of the rubber band are a local group. Let's call them ant Milkyway and ant Andromeda. And think about distant dots are distant galaxies. Even tho they are pulling gravitationally and try to meet, they cannot catch each other because of the expansion of the universe. That's the simplest way I can think of to explain it. Hope it helps.

  697. I can't believe how beautiful it is. It's breathtaking. I hope that in my lifetime humans makes it there and get closer to the weather patterns. To think there are hurricanes the size of earth :O I can't imagine
    6
  698. So sweet! Thanks my brother!
    6
  699. Of all the space related channels I watch, your and Dr David Kipping has the best narration out there. I'm quite sensitive to sound when going to sleep, so I never sleep through your videos, but they are so relaxing and fascinating I never skip an opportunity to watch or listen while I have crawled to bed. Do what you need to to keep on doing what you love. We love your work too!
    6
  700. thank you for amazing video. Eclipses are truly fascinating phenomenon.
    6
  701. Hey Astrum, all your videos are up on Amazon Prime video, just to let you know. I didn't find any credit given to you or your channel in the videos and they edited out your name and channel name in the videos. I don't know if you allowed them to or if they are using the videos without permission, but thought I should bring it up.
    6
  702. Awesome again!
    6
  703. Great video, cant wait until the next one!
    6
  704. First, you look exactly as I imagined you. Second, a new paradigm in physics is do or die need for science and someone has to take the lead and third, I subscribed before concluding a need for shifting something to unstuck science from the pit of, maybe string theory for being a dead end or controlled by people too vested to change. So you have my undying till I'm dead, support for any change.
    6
  705. Fantastic, as always.
    6
  706. Such quality. Much wow. Keep it up! ❤️

    5
  725. Allways a pleasure to see your fine compilations of brilliant video material combined with your enthusiastic but calm voice over - as a true explainer of what an where life in our solar system could be. Go on with that.
    5
  726. Very good/subscribed.
    5
  727. I wait anxiously for your video ......they are always the best
    5
  728. Danke!

  729. @0:14 I’m ready
    5
  730. Is the Mars rovers part 2 coming next?
    5
  731. I truly enjoy your videos and would enjoy longer ones especially with the pictures and explanations of what is going on in them. I’m a space junkie and absolutely love the detail and care you apply to all of your presentations and do hope you find superhuman abilities to produce a feature length video daily but I will settle for a few short ones along with 1 to 2 longer ones every lunar cycle or so. Thank you for your creative mind and passion for making quality space material for us to enjoy!
    5
  732. CONGRATULATIONS!!! I don't always understand everything you present, but I never miss an interesting episode and I always learn something from your narration and stunning visuals. THANKS IMMENSELY!!
    5
  733. One the best and most polished space videos on youtube are from your channel. Direct and to the point. One fact, another fact, an opinion here a mind boggle there. All while calming music plays in the back. Couldn't ask for anything more really. Keep up the great videos!
    5
  734. I drove over 1100 miles with my son to Kansas City, MO to see the 2017 eclipse. We went east to Norborne and it was pouring rain. Had my conversion from universal time off and thought we missed it and headed back to KC and saw a patch of clear sky so I figured we would look at a partial. The moon was still to the west and doubled checked my time and found my error, and 30 minutes later watched the most amazing natural phenomenon I've ever witnessed. Eagerly waiting for 4/8/2024 to see it again. Cheers mate.
    5
  735. I went to Cornwall for the total eclipse of 11th August 1999 and it was awesome. I had always heard that birds go silent during an eclipse, and perhaps it was different because I was on the coast and seabirds react differently, but all of the birds kicked up an unholy racket and kept it up the entire duration of the eclipse. It was all quite eerie, with hundreds of people dotted around the landscape all staring at the sky, it was all rather "apocalyptic" and would certainly have a powerful effect on unlearned people of the past who had no idea what was happening. I'd had this trip planned years beforehand, from the very moment I learned that there would be a total eclipse in the UK in my lifetime. And at the risk of repeating myself - it was awesome! That's definitely one off the Bucket List...
    5
  736. Dude... I love your videos. you narrate very well, and seem to find some awesome images! top job!
    5
  737. Good luck on your projects. Thanks

  740. Great video Alex
    5
  741. Always love your content but feel you've really stepped it up with this one! Look forward to see what's up next :D
    5
  742. Amazing, thank you.
    5
  743. Astrum, your videos remind me of what movies like “Sunshine” or “Intersteller” have shown us, very informative and nicely done. Keep up the good work man! 🌏 🌚 ✨
    5
  744. Congrats! Love your channel. What you said about documentaries being full of fluff particularly resonates with me. I have given up watching tv documentaries exactly because of that reason. Most of the time one has to wade through an hour of meaningless sensationalism and repetition just to glean perhaps ten minutes of useful content. Thanks god for youtube and passionate people like yourself who produce such amazing content. Keep up the good work!
    5
  745. Your excitement about space is half the enjoyment I get from your video's :)
    5
  746. Superbly done! I would like a duvet cover with that star picture!
    5
  747. Another great video. I am making my way through your impressive backlog of videos, and have to say it... congratulations, you've done it again and surprised me. Despite being a (self described) gigantic space geek plodding my way through my seventh decade, the two images at 9:53 are completely new to me! How I've never seen those two Venera images don't know, but thank you for bringing them to my attention.
    5
  748. My body is ready
    5
  749. Thanks for the video :)

  750. The Sun does actually move relative to the center of mass of the Solar System, but since it's thousands of times more massive than any planets, its movements are much smaller, affected mostly by Jupiter and Saturn. https://cdn.education.com/files/static/science-fair/barycenter-balancing-point/historical-barycenter-solar-system.png . The Sun (and the whole solar system) also move at about 220 km/s around the center of the Milky Way, which in turn is moving ~600 km/s relative to the average of other galaxies (far faster than any planets orbit)
    5
  751. Hey Alex! Congrats once again for reaching 100,000 subs. Don't worry about the subscriptions, I love your videos, you have great potential, just keep going. This channel is so underrated, I'll make sure to spread it from my part. Cheers mate. :D
    5
  752. Bedankt

  753. Dude! Congratulations!!! Sending love from Sydney!
    5
  754. New Subscriber and love your videos. Just a thought for another similar video. For those of us who are spatial and feel lost if we cannot place ourselves, it would be helpful to know where the specific observations are in Valles. This is not a criticism. The videos are great. Just a comment on how some of our minds work. Thanks for the videos.
    5
  755. I love how you reminded me to "like" - "i hope at the end of the video i have earned your like and subscription". That´s so classy and modest - almost humble. And that´s how you earned my like way before the end of the video, which i will continue watching, now. Thx. Galaxies are so huge... from inside of one, looking to the other end of it, if you can see through it, you can only observe the distant past of the other end, compared to your vintage point. It´s only at great distances they can be observed within roughly the same time frame. Kinda like atoms, if you think about it, where-in relativistic effects are very important, while fading away at comparatively huge distances.
    5
  756. Your channel is awe inspiring and amazing!
    5
  757. I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL...anything to do with our solar system but your channel is everything I want.. EVERYTHING!! PLEASE keep doing video's like these. Can I ask tho how did you get in astronomy? It's something I've dreamed of doing but don't know where to start..thank you :)
    5
  758. Superb video as usual. I never realised the layers were so distinct and related to temperature gradients. Also that the temperature dropped and then rose again! For myself as a middle aged viewer (54) who's mind never worked that fast anyway, I would like a little longer to view the stunning photos and diagrams alongside slower speech so I can take in one bit of information before you move on to the next.
    5
  759. Great channel, Subbed.
    5
  760. Congrats for 100k sub, love your amazing channel.
    5
  761. thanx for the scale Astrum;i think ur video is the only one with a scale so far i've seen of all the hundreds i've clicked on over the years..well done!
    5
  762. OMG, my name at the end, so cool! Great video, too. So glad I can support this amazing content, and always looking forward to the next one.
    5
  763. After watching some horrific & depressing news from Russia’s brutal war on Ukraine, it was so relieving watching this, & reminding myself of how beautiful this cosmos is. These videos of yours are so important right now Astrum.
    5
  764. Carl Sagan! Yes! I love the cosmos.
    5
  765. Best video to watch when you can’t fall asleep! Jk 😉
    5
  766. One on black holes would be good. Thank you for videos so far. Very interesting and tastefully done.
    5
  767. Oooo this is going to be good good
    5
  768. This was very relaxing :)
    5
  769. excellent explanation!
    5
  770. Nice video, very interesting. I still was lost with the scale or size of each shot, perhaps if you indicated a scale showing that city block again on every shot, it would be much better, or maybe when you zoom in,, drop in a football stadium and when zoomed in even more, place a bus or house, otherwise i still can not see how big or how deep these mountains are but good video !
    5
  771. I love your channel. Merry Christmas
    5
  772. Amazing content. I'm so glad that I discovered your channel
    5
  773. Worth the 11 hours it took you to upload this beautiful video. Thank you so much.
    5
  774. More please!
    5
  775. Many times I use your channel to fall asleep, only because your voice is so soothing! But I always go back and watch the videos start to finish because I love your content, as soon as I can I would love to support you on patreon because your content is totally worth it!
    5
  776. Amazing!
    5
  777. this video is gonna make me famous
    5
  778. Absolutely fantastic !!
    5
  779. Another amazing video. When I went to school little was known about Io. You have explained it all very well without dumbing it down at all. And beautiful imagery. It made Io "real" in a way Mars is, that someday someone might walk its surface.
    5
  780. Time relevant videos are good. But I would prefer videos which are 'timeless', the videos which do not become old news in a week. ☺
    5
  781. Astrum these videos are as good if not better than any mainstream YouTube channel. I watch all of them and am very thankful that you are making them. I hope that you will be able to continue making them for years to come.
    5
  782. Wow this is seriously impressive great hi def pix
    5
  783. Absolute fantastic work, keep going 💪🏻👍🚀

  784. Thank you for existing. :)

  785. And look you're already at 103k!

  786. There are not enough superlatives in my hyperbole to describe how marvelous is this video is. I gained so much. Thank you.
    5
  787. Amazing.... Wish we could live there !!!
    5
  788. Nice explanation and presentation. I enjoyed watching.
    5
  789. Man I love this, every year we are finding more and more galaxies with stars that have planets in its solar system that could possibly sustain so type of primitive life. Microorganisms and such. Exciting my favorite is the bubble nebula
    5
  790. Where is the picture of the sun on the cover of the video?
    5
  791. Blown away WOW
    5
  792. Let me join in the praise. You do a great job. I'd say you and David Butler are my choice for cosmological videos.
    5
  793. I just wanted to drop by and say I love your channel. Keep it up, you're doing an amazing job!
    5
  794. Superb video!
    5
  795. Thank you, excellent and very informative.
    5
  796. Algorithm be damned let's channel always pops up in my feed. I make sure of that and this is absolutely hands down what are the best channels I've ever seen period
    5
  797. I did keep them closed the first time through. Your videos are always so interesting, so if you found this interesting enough to play for us, I wanted to experience it as intended. I figured that I could always watch it again afterwards to see what I missed, and I did.
    5
  798. Favourite planet!
    5
  799. ok honestly i have absolutely no idea what you're even talking about or who these people even are, but you keep pushing these sources on me even though they all admit that human kind has an affect on the planet's warming or making these "historical" claims. at this point you are just saying all Ivy educated scientists and all politicians and the rest of NASA and the rest of the scientific community around the world, whom are highly educated, are all wrong. And you, an individual with significantly less education and experience in these fields, are right! sure let's just go with that and say you win. you won against the scientific community and all their research with these youtube comments. in fact, you're going to be on the logs of history books when people look back at how foolish and greedy the scientific community was for... doing their job! >:( you want to keep emphatically denying these claims, sure. if that makes you feel like you have any semblance of power or if it gives you any comfort on holding on to a relic of a past where things were "simpler" then so be it. i can't change cognitive bias and i can't change you, but you're inevitably are going to be buying either solar or electric cars in the future and all companies are just inherently just looking towards sustainability. in five to ten years time when heat waves become so severe that the government has to more frequently order mandatory stay ins in your home, don't come crying to me. you want to misconstrue arguments that scientists are being irrational sure, but at the very moment we are speaking florida is being submerged by the rising sea. humanity won't die and we do find engineering solutions, but it doesn't mean it won't come at a cost for our select of our future generations and survival as a whole species.

    5
  804. Digging that hair. Handsome chap. Thanks for all the awesome videos ❤
    5
  805. Very nice. Only small criticism is I like to see the person being interviewed when they speak, not dubbed over.
    5
  806. Alex, this was a really great video. I enjoyed this a whole lot.
    5
  807. Nice video awesome work👍👍

  817. To all who voted "dislike"...You are a troll, who does not even believe your own BS. Like all You Tube conspiracy trolls, you lie and lie and lie, for no reason other then to find an excuse to spam and harass. PS: I worked at JPL 1974-1986.
    5
  818. Nice narration and very well presented with great images with high resolution and sharp color. Your script is very well written too, clear and cogent. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

    4
  840. You got a new subscriber
    4
  841. This is by far the best, well explaining detail series about space. I became your new fan and looking forward to your future progress. Best of luck.

  849. Thank you very much! Great Video. I hit the bell button a second ago and will convince others to donate. Maybe.
    4
  850. I would be very interested to know, what was the closest approach of an asteroid to earth, and it's size? I believe I saw an asteroid in the night sky whilst meteor watching around twenty years ago, but I cannot trace any references to what it may have been. It was between us and the Moon, but I have no idea of distance or scale. I would appreciate any thoughts.
    4
  851. Thanks 4 the great videos

  852. Because when a planet crosses between us and it's star you can measure the dimming. When you measure the wobble (red/blue-shift) of a star you also know what mass is needed to make this wobble. But when you just have an image of it, you can only have 2 bright dots. Even when you know the mass of the star you could compare the sizes of the dots, and then estimate. But the star has other composition; other density and then you could only guess. In this case it could be a brown dwarf, only the mass could explain if it is a planet or not.

  853. Okay my fourth video so far and I only found you an hour and a half ago. You my friend are the first person that I will seriously consider donating to. I make videos from time to time and I know what goes into it. I don't know how you get all the graphics but you my friend should be working for a major Network somewhere. For now I'll just thank my lucky stars for running into your videos. Since I've never donated before, now I'll have to figure out how. LOL keep it up and again I don't know how you do it. The only other guy that I would seriously consider donating to is the engineer who puts together smarter every day. His videos like yours are incredibly entertaining. The money spent on cameras that can record in 4k with 8000 frames per second with infrared at night and a snow storm. LOL you guys are incredible but yours I watch and I don't know how many you have up but when I've had exhausted all of them I will be sending you messages to make more. But I need to ask you a very very important question. It is regard to a different video that you had made about Pluto. OMG all that money spent on the incredible Voyages of all these spacecrafts and people on this planet or more concerned with taking selfies. LOL my question is simply this with all the hoopla of how Pluto wasn't a planet anymore and downgraded to a rock in space just a couple of years ago because there was no Corona which decommissioned our solar system to eight planets. At that time I thought it's silly that people we're so upset about a rock. But after watching your video how in the hell have they not reversed that decision? If you could answer that, well that I would be very interested to read. As usual thank you thank you for another stellar video. You hit it out of the park with a planet you didn't even think would have that much interesting data to convey.

  854. “First” lol. I like it. And I love the Pluto system! Hopefully we can get an orbiter out to Pluto and Charon one day. I’d also love to see an orbiter at Eris, but that doesn’t seem likely at all at this point, especially not before a flyby is sent out there. I just feel like we need to see Eris and Dysnomia up close in our lifetimes lol

  855. People need to wake up ,prepare and quit taking things such as technology for granted. Very nicely done video. I'm looking forward to your next video! 😊

  856. Astrum No i always forget when the eclipse will happend thanks for the wonderful information 🌹
    4
  857. Total solar eclipse of 2017 in Oregon, USA. One of the most spectacular astronomical events I ever had the pleasure of seeing in person. It's an experience unlike any other, and I would very much recommend it to anyone who has the opportunity to see one in the future.

  858. I need a new brain... its blown .. Just amazing content.!!

  859. Amazing. You have a very humble and articulate finesse when you talk. I really enjoy your videos.

  860. They usually study its light waves so each wave or color can mean some kind of gas or molecule is more present in the atmosphere than others.

  863. Question: What are the advantages of a ground base telescope versus one in orbit?
    4
  864. Hey Alex! First of all congrats for the 100k subs it's quite an achievement! However I strongly believe you are the most interesting, passionate, dedicated amateur astronomer on allllll of YouTube and should have a lot more exposure..! I enjoyed every single video you have done so far on this channel it is just soooo well done and rich in content! Thank you so much. Merci beaucoup! Bonne chance dans tes futures projets 🤗☺ I'm sure you got that even tho you said you couldn't speak much French! much love from Quebec, Ca

  868. Amazing ❤

  869. It's definitely the next planet to colonise,although it's still some way off. However, once we get a foothold on Mars,that's a great step forward. Afterwards, we can look towards Europa or Titan.It's definitely not going to happen soon, but it will.:)

  870. Alex I've been really getting into your videos lately - please keep up the great work - I love it, especially how you explain the science so well and understandably in many of them

  871. SMASH THAT BELL, FAM!

  872. Hi Bill- I'm 62, and remember it well! My grandfather actually burst into tears at those famous words, he was so happy!
    4
  873. Great stuff ans super quality as always. I always have to instantly watch. I learn so much about space!
    4
  874. I see what you did there @astrumspace. You almost had me for...well most of the video. I was thinking, "No Alex, not you too!" The name of the video and the first two thirds almost had me thinking you were going to argue AGAINST Anthropogenic Climate Change, but I watched all the way through anyway. Then I thought, "well played sir, well played". If you had me wondering then maybe there are people who watched with the opposite motivation, looking for confirmation to support their desire to stick their heads in the ever warming sand. I hope it has the desired effect and causes the nonthinking to think and perhaps act. Are you by any chance a fly fisher? Anyway, thank you. I'm so relieved!

  882. jupiter was always my fav planet, since i was a lil kid and sailor jupiter from sailor moon was my fav character. it sounds stupid but that show really got me interested into astronomy

  883. And then, between all those influencers, hipsters and funny kittens, I found Astrum, and my faith in humanity was restored.

  889. Love your Channel you..
    4
  890. see 7:58. you are an insult to all of these people plus thousands more who have dedicated themselves to space travel and exploration. would you look each of these people in the face and tell them that their life's work is bullshit? your judgements are based on pure ignorance.
    4
  891. Fantastic presentation. Thank you.

  892. 100,000 subscribers! Man, you are doing your thing! Keep up the excellent work...

    4
  897. Awesome video. So glad I happened upon your channel. I can't wait to binge watch your content. Thanks for sharing.
    4
  898. I really appreciate the topics you delve into, the well-considered pacing you employ in doing so, and the fact that you're not afraid to make longer videos that explore topics more deeply. That is indeed a rarity in the YT world. Which brings me to another point. I think having a Patreon presence for Astrum is a wonderful idea, as it will allow those of us who can, support your work to whatever extent each of us can. That said, for those who would like to see ad-free videos, one option might be to ditch the YT platform entirely and head to greener (i.e. less restrictive) pastures, such as Rumble or Oddysee. I realise there are still many good reasons for content providers to post on YT, but I think having a long-term alternative on the back burner might be prudent. At any rate, Astrum is one of a handful of my all-time favourite channels, and I truly love what you do and how you do it. Cheers!

  899. Two thumbs up on your channel! I just came across this and I must say, it is one of the best space channels I have seen. The production is top shelf and all are very informative. Thank you!

Once again i can tell this video was made with care , it is beautifully enriched with details , wonderfully narrated without been boring and it covers so many aspects and topics i am amazed .

  920. traditional elements? that would assume we know what life is? could it not just be an energy in living things? not dependent on traditional elements.. but using these elements to exist in this world? yeah this is not really presented right the point was to say we do not know what life is yet. So how can we define it in terms we can understand..? We look for things that are the same as the things of this earth.. and we call that life... Sorry for the poor attempt at saying what is on my mind.. I am getting old and my mind is not as sharp as it once was.. but for those of you that are curiosity chasers will know what I mean. Job well done! Carry on and stir our imaginations..
    4
  921. I agree with this! For me I love how his personal enthusiasm comes through his narration. You can tell he is just as amazed and excited to show it, as he is to see it. Keep up the great work Astrum! I hope uni is going to plan, and things are well for you!

  922. I live in the woodlands, bush Alaska. I love listening to the sunrise. The birds sing, but so does the vegetation. Once in a while we will hear the moose bugling to each other. Sometimes a wolf will join the quire. The trees snap & moan at 1st light after a cold night. The lifting of the chill will most always stir the leaves causing them to play as if they are natures rattles contributing their musical sound too. Ive called this the symphony of nature. I love hearing it. Its best just right before sun rise. This video has allowed me to hear a part of the orchestra that surly contributes to The Symphony of Nature that I can not hear with the naked ear. Thank you.

  923. Love your work!

  924. Well done!

  931. Great video!
    4
  932. I really love your voice. It's so soothing, and i love space. I often fall asleep to your videos at night because space topics help calm me. Your voice being so soothing is just the cherry on top that really helps me put aside my worries and just... Look on into the unkown of space

  933. Saturn is my favorite because it is ssssssssssoooooooooooooooooo bright

  934. Absolutely amazing video...thank you so much for sharing...
    4
  935. Congratulations Alex! All your time and hard work is just starting to pay off! The effort that you've put into this channel is very evident. Your subscribers can tell the difference between crappy, tossed together visual junk, and meticulously planned, painstakingly detailed editing, and a real love for the subject matter. You're doing something great here man, so keep your infectious sense of wonder, and keep the good work!
    4
  936. I'd pitch in for a new computer to make video editing/rendering easier. You should consider Patreon or accepting donations.
    4
  937. I wished you'd given us more size scale on this one. A better idea of what 7 km up high represents... and more size info during the video. But the visuals are gorgeous as per usual with your videos! keep them coming!
    4
  938. Its so beautiful. Thankyou
    4
  939. I have a face to that unique and special voice. So important that you and your team have fun no matter what you decide to do. I’ve throughly enjoyed your videos over time and recently subscribed because I love your content.

  940. Teriffic Alex, great job as always.

  941. Take 100 grains of sand and scatter them across a window that is 1 square foot in area. Then stand 5 feet away from the window and look through it. That's sort of what the Oort Cloud is gonna be like when we're looking at something in the distance.

  942. I love this channel and this topic! Space is amazing!

  943. Congrats to you sir, you really deserve more,good continuation!

  946. Thank you for these amazing photos and your commentary. Loved this Vid! 😊

  947. I appreciate the work you do! Thank you!

  948. I travelled with my dad from Boston to South Carolina to see the 2017 eclipse and to anyone reading this: go see the one coming in 2024...and plan for it. Pay attention to the weather, monitor the cloud cover day of and make sure you see it. I’ve yet to hear a description do it justice on any level. This pure white glow, the whitest white you’ve ever seen. A ghostly ring hovering in the sky where the sun used to be...the temperature drops, the planets come into view, then the stars, then you notice this crazy “dawn/dusk” on every horizon. It crowbars the reality of our place in the cosmos into your soul...it’s a unique, profound, vaguely frightening experience and NOTHING can compare.
    4
  949. Man, your videos are phenomenal and very well produced. The language is perfect. The topics are very interesting and I tend to learn a lot from all the content. So you can be sure, wherever you go I will follow!!! And since YouTube and practically the entire internet has become a huge billboard of completely despicable, expendable and forgettable content and products, I can tell you that YouTube and these platforms will be the only ones that will lose out. Thank you very much for everything to you and your entire team! Your content is totally necessary in our lives...
    4
  950. Very interesting. Ty✌
    4
  951. Your content is some of the best on youtube.
    4
  952. We all know exactly what you mean when you describe Space-documentaries being over the top dramatic and full of cgi and repeating each other over and over. That is why we all came here to Astrum and subscribed.
    4
  953. This was very informative and intelligent. Wake up brothers and sisters this is a real threat.
    4
  954. well thanks for the views... very interesting..

  955. Grüezi :D
    4
  956. I have been subscribed to this channel for quite a while, couple of years in fact and it really helped me find a great video to sleep whilst getting to watch something awesome. If I had a dounut, I would split it and give you the side with most sprinkles.

  957. Love your channel and the way it's presented. Keep up the great work! Aloha from Hawaii 🤙🏽

  958. Fascinating video! Jupiter is so much more chaotic that anticipated with those higher resolution pictures.
    4
  959. Thank you once again. Terrific channel.
    4
  960. Yes please make more video's like this. Its a breath of fresh air from all the "pareidolia" video's. Also nice that you are using your voice to explain so that the viewer can relax and not have to read a lot of text during the video.
    4
  961. What an absolutely fantastic bit of film making, Jupiter is so beautiful and mystical.
    4
  962. You are so handsome
    4
  963. No. Those craters form even at shallow entry angles as high-speed impacts cause a form of explosion at the point of contact. They also happened a long time ago for the most part from a time when the solar system was quite a bit more active than it is today.
    4
  964. Astrum you answered my questions! Woohoo! Thanks man. Appreciate the detail. Funny that you can pinpoint your specific origin of your fascination of astronomy to one specific thing in your childhood. I honestly can't think of what it was for me personally, so much as I've just always loved space. I'm humbled that you answered my questions and thank you for making this channel. I appreciate your content so much and can't wait to see where your future takes you. Keep at it man!

  965. Your videos are great! Thanks.Sorry I don't have any money to contribute. Only my appreciation.

  968. you say "Charon" now and before you used to say "Karon"... which one is the correct way to pronounce it?
    3
  969. This is amazing, first i’ve seen content like this. It’s not offten i actually learn something trully interesting from youtube video. Please more videos analyzing photos from probes, curiosity or opportunity photos would be much appriciated!

  985. I am here for astrum, for long format videos and stuff that DOESN'T fit an algorithm!

  986. You are the best! I use your page so my students can see and get a great visual for our home, solar system, and universe. Plus i think your channel is awesome!
    3
  987. I did the same calculation (sun diameter = 1 mm) to estimate the size of the Solar system then of the Milky Way. (i.e. The volume of 200 to 400 billion stars = 2 to 4 m3, etc. ) The results were just astonishing !

  988. Wonderful imagery!!! Instantly subbed

  991. I have been watching this channel for years. It helps me wind down after a busy day, it keeps my mind stimulated, it has both entertained and educated me with fascinating topics and visuals. Finally I am becoming a Patron member to support the channel. It is so difficult to come across independent, reliable and genuinely authentic content. Astrum never ceases to fail. I am proud to now say I am an Astrum member. I look forward to supporting the channel for years to come!
    3
  992. I have been fortunate enough to have seen the milky way in several European countries and it was gorgeous. However, light pollution still made it rather faint. I'd love to go to a remote place in the southern hemisphere like you did and get a proper view. I have this on my bucket list together with seeing the aurora borealis or australis. At least I got to see Hale-Bopp in '97 and the full solar eclipse in '99 which was absolutely spectacular.
    3
  993. First time watching your channel.. NEW SUBSCRIBER. So fascinating. Thank you for your simple yet enthusiastic approach to your videos. Much love to you and yours!

  994. Lets move Earth and push it somewhere else.

  995. For the pronunciation, in Latin the stress is on the first syllable: Úranus, and thus should be pronounced with the stress there in English.

  997. Amazing channel. The discord idea sounds amazing good chance to interact with each other!

  998. Alex thanks you for your channel, we all can see that you put your talent and soul in it. Great quality and great content.
    3
  999. This was great! Actually, just today I was looking at Google Earth/Mars but I couldn't really make much out from it. It's great to have stuff like this with the HiRes images and an explanation. Mars has such amazing geological features. It's truly out of this world.

  1000. Imagine Alien life that most probably look just like us looking at us and our galaxy from one or almost all of these galaxies ... talking about our milky way on a collision course with Andromeda galaxy. They are studying our galaxy and i have ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT THAT THEY ARE OUT THERE STUDYING OUR GALAXY THU THEIR OWN HUBBLE TELESCOPE! Considering the sheer size of all the universe its irrational idiotic not logical to believe we are alone out here. Its impossible ... We now only need to break our fastest speeds and surpass the tech in our telescopes and perhaps that might not be enough but im sure we will find another earth with another intelligent species much like our own

  1001. Fantastic video , as always. Really you remind me of Brian Cox, I think his name is. You have the best videos, they are relaxing and very infomative .

  1002. Love your videos, and I agree the real pictures are stunning and amazing.

  1005. your content is so amazing. i love it. keep on making this awesome content.

  1006. I would have to agree about Titan. It would be hard getting bored there--just imagine the views of Saturn, too.
    3
  1007. There are some videos that make me wish, I could give several likes at once. Just awesome!

  1008. It was rendered beatifull and learnfull. A very nice video!

  1014. Thanks Alex. Really enjoy your content.
    3
  1015.  @astrumspace  Great I love your channel and I'm hyped for PT 2!
    3
  1016. I admit to being disappointed at this very short video, as I didn't pay attention to the length when I started playing it, and so its sudden end was a shock. I've always enjoyed your previous videos, as you took the time to present the material in a thorough manner, and always showed me something new. This is just a personal preference of course, and I imagine you have a life to be getting on with as well ;-) Keep up the great work, regardless.

  1017. Black holes aren't objects - Astrum Stephen Hawking says that there is nothing there. “ a star collapsing under its own gravity is trapped in a region whose surface eventually shrinks to zero size. And, since the surface of the region shrinks to zero, so too must its volume. All the matter in the star will be compressed into a region of zero volume…” (p. 49) 23 S.

  1019. Great video.! Kudos to you, and thanks.!!!

  1020. Wow. Another amazing video. Wish I subscribed sooner! I would love it if you made more videos. I can't get enough!
    3
  1021. yes and i watched it by using a mirror to reflect the light onto the side of a building across the street. it was pretty cool
    3
  1022. I stared right at it with no glasses. On youtube.

  1023. I saw the 2017 eclipse down in Tennessee. Planned the trip like 6 years ago when I found out it was happening. I've already planned the 2024 eclipse trip down in Southern Indiana. I cant wait. It is literally one of the most amazing, surreal, and beautiful things you can see. I'm glad its checked off my bucket list. I strongly recommend you view this at least once in your lifetime.

  1024. Oh crap I was right yahoo me

  1025. Really great job on this, Alex.

  1026. 2:04, another civilization-dampening phenomenon... Your videos are among my favorite of all time, but stay away from fried food! :) ...Come to the progressive US for evidence of what it'll do to ya ;) Thank you for your hard work!
    3
  1027. A true achievement and so well deserved. My favourites are always the longer videos and supercuts as I love a real deep dive into a topic!
    3
  1028. Nice to see Mars photos with some explanation about what we're seeing, thanks Astrum.
    3
  1029. Great video! :)
    3
  1030. Thanks, I enjoyed the series. So much great science is gained from what are also very beautiful images. Having observed SN 1987a with my Celestron 5" less than a day after its discovery (it was yellowy, naked-eye visible, and its brightness was still on the rise), and followed it since, it was nice to see the relatively recent image of it and the artist's reconstruction in 4k.
    3
  1031. Beautiful! Thank you for your videos and you have a new subscriber your videos are inspirational for my daughter.
    3
  1032. Congrats on the 2 million Astrum! You deserve the world. Love from Utah :)

  1033. Jeremy Saunders "most of all the craters are all about the same depth why!" Large impacts liquefy the collision site (lava), which fills in the deepest impressions.

  1034. Great stuff AGAIN!

  1035. This is the first video I've seen of your channel. I'd like to see more of you now. #LoveUniverse

  1036. Oh beautiful little Cassini/Huygens... I will miss you both very much, for you have taught us so much knowledge upon your deaths. Thank you for the beauty, wonder and education on the Saturnian system that you have given us and let us pray that we soon return in your honour

  1037. A+ Quality video. Great job, very informative

  1038. When the probe woke up after battery failure, how did it know where to point its antennae to establish contact? Omni directional or something?
    3
  1039. You're tops at all you do!! We love you! ❤️

  1040. These images of Jupiter from Juno are simply astonishing. I especially like the mosaic of the southern pole showing the many storms as they dance around each other and their particular bands.
    3
  1041. An excellent video. Just a couple of points, you say molecule but the image says particle. The two terms aren't interchangeable, molecules are made from particles. Also the plural of nebula is nebulae, pronounced neb-you-lee. Other than that I found the video fascinating, especially the simulations.
    3
  1042. Great vid, makes me want to go star gazing again.
    3
  1043. Red giants only last for a very short period of time relative to other stars, as it's basically the death of a main sequence star. Red dwarfs are incredibly dim and get EASILY overpowered by basically any other star, especially the G-Type sunlike stars
    3
  1044. Im always so excited to see a new video from astrum, keep it up alex! congratulations!
    3
  1045. Your work is outstanding!! Truly impressive

  1046. Easily one of my favorite channels.

  1047. Wow! You are an amazing artist and your videos are wonderful! Thank you!

  1048. The International Space Station has mass. And as all things that have mass, it has a gravitational pull, just like you, me and the Earth. But it's way too light to have things orbiting it because it's too close to Earth and its Hill Sphere is smaller than the Space Station itself. However, if it was really far away from big massive bodies like the Earth, then for sure if could have satellites orbiting it! In theory, things of any size could orbit it, since what matters is mass, not size (a bowling ball is the same size as a football, but it's a lot heavier). So, as long as something is lighter than the Space Station (anything less than about 420 tonnes) it could orbit it. If it was heavier than the Space Station, then the Station would become the satellite.
    3
  1049. I've looked for videos like this for soooo long. Your content is amazing, keep it up! You earned a sub and a ton of likes today :D
    3
  1050. Be a expert. I really like your videos. You are a smart guy. I hope you join are field of work. I just wanted to say I’m not one of these people who say they are something that they are not. I don’t work for NASA of any sort. I work for a small college not even a big name school.
    3
  1051. The face of Astrum. 😊
    3
  1052. just finished looking all your videos, great work man!

  1053. i am LOVING all the new videos. i found your site just as i was beginning to become obsessed with the cosmos a while ago, and i think you do such a good job explaining everything to us. thank you!!!!

  1062. New sub 🤗

  1063. helped me with my Project (2018)
    3
  1064. The YT algorhythm is the main reason why so many content creators are losing viewerships no matter how educational and informative the channel is like Astrum. I also noticed how it has focused more on shorts than the long-form videos.
    3
  1065. Congratulations on your 2 million subscribers! Greetings from 🇺🇸.
    3
  1066. Amazing discoveries!Oscar for your videos😆

  1069. awesome

  1070. I've always been into space and the study of it, but I've never really been into listening to YouTuber's talk about it.. and then I stumbled upon your channel, and have been hooked since. I have checked out other channels since finding you but I always search your channel now whenever I am craving to know more about a certain thing. Keep up the good work!
    3
  1071. Outstanding video!

  1072. Congratulations! Thanks for your hard work!

  1074. Thought I'd give it a couple of views before sayin' ......thanx Alex , for another well done video , already lookin' forward to the next one
    3
  1075. Fantastic very informative video. You must had worked so so hard. Your videos are better than Nat geo or discovery channel videos. Keep it up.
    3
  1076. Whoah. I've been watching this channel for a few years and never thought to look at the subscriber count. Thought you still had like a few thousand.

  1077. If the tectonic plates had a status update, it would definitely be: "It's complicated"

  1081. I know I missed something but doesn't mercury take 58.6 days to rotate while taking 88 days to complete a revolution, I'm confused with the point you made about Mercury . If anyone would explain it that'd be great .

  1082. 2007 OR10 is named Gonggong, and its moon is Xiangliu.
    3
  1083. Alex- how very refreshing to actually see the face behind Astrum! Truth be told, I had thought of you as an older man, maybe my age, simply because you have a very mature outlook and presentation which is, unfortunately, not too common these days! I'm 62 years old, and grew up at the very beginning of space exploration. It's very exciting to me that I may very well be one of the privileged few to witness both the first men on the moon, and the first on Mars! I mentioned to you once before that I am going through a bit of financial difficulty at the moment, but I will happily donate to your Patreon account once that is resolved. Please continue to bring us these wonderful videos!
    3
  1084. Thank you for another awesome video! I would never had imagined that Mar's polar ice caps could look so enchanting without this video! :)

  1085. THANKS!!

  1088. 1st image of the veil nebula made me stay with mouth open, and an stupor expression....what amazing! Your channel toghether with David Butler's are the best on YouTube for modern updated universe exploration ♥

  1096. I was sick :/ But huge fan here i enjoyed every video on this channel so far Stunning images and quality background information You realy earned the 100k subs
    3
  1097. Thanks for this great video on the sun! The dark sunspots sure do not suggest that the sun is burning from within. A big solar storm as in 1859 is not what is expected because of the sertainty that cycle 25 will show much lower sunspot numbers than cycle 24. But before cycle 25 starts showing any sunspots a solar silence lasting atleast a year is expected from about 2019 to 2020. The next decade or so is a very exiting time conserning the Sun. Earth magnetic field is getting weaker fast. This would make us more exposed to solar storms ahead.
    3
  1098. I don't know if anyone else pointed this out already, but isn't Phobos (the moon of Mars) orbiting at 6 thousand kilometers above the Martian surface? (5989km according to Wikipedia). Thank you for all these videos. They are really well made, professional and the research and work that goes into making them can be felt.

  1104. I completely agree with you on how most space videos on YouTube are. In contrast, you're doing a fabulous job here. It's simply so good we can't ignore it.

  1105. I expected you to look older, but hey, HELLO!

  1106. When i have kids, i want them to watch quality educational content like this channel has offer... i want them to become educated person and make positive impact to society. After i graduate from university, i really want to support this channel so i can continue watching top notch quality content like this.

  1114. Been a fan of your content since almost the start, so i have seen your face before, "how far away is our nearest star system", one of my favorite videos. Always enjoyed your content and narration, and i'm sure i will enjoy it for years more to come. Thank you, and keep up the good work.

  1123. Astrum is the man when I want to watch some astrology videos! Great videos!!
    3
  1124. I started picking the house up and cleaning while listening to your video and I had to freaking stop it and watch this thing! You're amazing. I love your channel so much and I want to watch 'till the very last second so you get credit for this view or however it works. If I find out though that this whole thing was made by AI I want a refund lololol joking. I remember when you made that one video with AI and didn't tell us until partway through the video lol Despite other channels using space Engine 2 and other simulation computer programs you still have the best imagery! I still can't get it out of my mind how beautiful the rings of Saturn are and I got to see them thanks to you!

  1125. The moon is the ultimate photo-bomber

  1130. More people should subscribe to this kind of useful youtube channel than all of the junk youtube videos about useless showing off of materialistic lives.

  1131. This is a wonderful channel! Thank you so much!
    3
  1132. wow first space video i clicked on youtube that isnt clickbait edit: new sub
    3
  1133. a pale and boring Uranus from my school days becomes a complex mysterious object. at first sight it is a glacial cold ball. without rings as in the case of Saturn or structure of Jupiter. in fact it is a storehouse of riddles and oddities. how dramatically the worlds differ in ONE solar system
    3
  1134. I watch your videos with my 1 year old son, we like your videos alot! Keep them coming :)
    3
  1135. Spectacular indeed!, Thank you!

  1138. Your voice is so soothing to relax and drift off to sleep too, I could listen to you read your grocery list and enjoy it I reckon

  1139. Your content is amazing.

  1142.  @alflud  Yes we see oblique impacts in fact most impacts occur at oblique angles on all solar system bodies which have solid surfaces that support cratering. However the circular nature of a crater is independent of the angle of impact because impact craters are caused by a kinetic explosion not gouging due to the high speeds of impact events, hence the crater for all but the least energetic(low velocity) impacts will produce a generally circular crater because explosions are generally circular unless the surrounding deformation environment is sufficiently inhomogeneous to alter the way the blast wave travels.

  1143. Yes more please

  1144. Great video, thank you........

  1145. I absolutely love your videos! Always packed with stunning imagery and amazing informational value. Keep it up!

  1146. Im confused is it you or Juno who earned my subscription.
    3
  1147. I'm still wading through your catalogue of superb videos. You never disappoint.
    3
  1148. Excellent video! A wealth of information and fantastic photographs!

  1149. Greetings stateside from Nampa, Idaho! Congrats on 100,000 subs, Alex. I've learned more about space from you, Anton Petrov and Neil deGrasse Tyson than anyone else in all my 37 years on this big beautiful ball we call Earth. Keep up the good work, man.

  1153. Amazing Great video

  1154. Brilliantly explained thank you!
    3
  1155. Really awesome and knowledgeable video....do more videos about universe....
    3
  1156. Really enjoy your videos, Thanks for making them. It seems strange though that the theoretical impetuous for a star to form is other preexisting dying stars or gravity waves from pre-existing galaxies, and that while we observe the death of stars, we have not actually seen the birth of any, especially given the vastness of the universe.
    3
  1157. It's such a nice video for those who actually want to study astronomy 👍🏻
    3
  1158. Very beautiful pictures, that must be a lot of work. I looked it twice, and very nice that you explain what we see. I have no clue if it is much work or do-able but is it possible to show a scale at the bottom like on normal maps. When you told some dimensions at 4:17 I was surprised about the level of zooming in. If it was earth you could probably see houses ? What was the scale of those beautiful hoof shaped ice-humps at 1:30 ?
    3
  1159. Your videos are freaking amazing !!!
    3
  1160. U can be a teacher in school in science fleid

  1164. Dude why not go to Sweden instead? Its okay to risk your life, but don't pray for mine to get fucked up just for your wish.
    3
  1165. Hey buddy! Love your videos, always learning something. If you don't mind me asking, what formal education if any have you had?
    3
  1166. +Vinsmoke Sanji . It is because the satellite (called EPIC DSCOVR) is about 1.5 million km from Earth at the L1 LaGrange point and a telephoto lens is used. At the same time the moon is 384,000km closer than Earth is from the satellite, but still over 1.1 million km from it. The satellite orbits between the sun and Earth, always viewing the daytime side.
    3
  1167. I Love space
    3
  1168. Oh man please, oh please do more of these videos! But also, please do the rest of them with 60fps video. That would make a big difference. I love your channel though Astrum!

  1193. Another great video with exception production values. Also, thanks for the shout-out. I had not seen the original, and can't wait to watch this with my children.
    3
  1194. (°o°)(°o。)(。o。)(。o°)(°o°)(°o。)(。o。) The flyby timelapse approach and departure footage is so fascinating to watch over and over, it's the first time I felt large looking at astronomy imagery, as if a Jupiter bowling ball was being passed near my head.
    3
  1195. I’ve been saving all these beautiful videos to show my children and grandchildren on 50 inch flatscreen. 🙏
    3
  1196. Awesome!! Please make a video on Tritan :)

  1197. Im 5 years into my PhD so I haven’t any money, but just want to say thanks for all the videos over the years. Keep doing what you need to do to stay happy. I love all your videos. They keep me going. Big love from planet Australia ❤
    3
  1198. I'm worried that when someone asks me what my favorite planet is and I tell them Uranus they'll think I'm talking about something non planet related, so I just say my second favorite (Mars).
    3
  1199. Thank you for providing high quality content, during my busy life your videos have reminded me of that curiosity and love for space I've always had deep in me, I will consider joining.
    3
  1200. Congrats on the milestone, Astrum!
    3
  1201. Astrum Apparently it is where the money is, but I think the market is saturated! Yup, now the money is in information/educational entertainment on YouTube! And you're in on the ground floor, so there's nowhere to go but up! (are you buying this?)

  1203. Awesome! I love this channel.✌

  1204. Congratz! To me, what makes your channel special is you don't just explain mainstream information about space but you give very special pieces of information too which I heard from only your channel for the first time. Since youtube got so popular people who interested in science knows most of the mainstream knowledge and looking for interesting and detailed scientific information. Your channel is one of several channels which do that. That's why I love Astrum.

  1207. Would your jacket be fashionable on other planets? I would be interested in part funding its departure into deep space or perhaps firing it directly into the sun to see how well the leatherette arms withstand the extreme heat and pressures. Thank you.

  1211. Hi Astrum, I'm a NASA / JPL Solar System Ambassador to Ann Arbor, MI. This past weekend I hosted a planet viewing night in the city where we looked at Saturn and Jupiter with it's 3 closest Galilean moons. Your video was very timely! It helped solidify for me things I had read about in news outlets the last couple month. I mentioned about the Juno probe, of course, during my event and a couple things it had discovered. When asked what else have we learned about Jupiter from Juno, I opted to show this video, your video. Everyone was impressed! Thank you very much for this! -Jennifer German

  1213. astrum you are the clean smart and positive gy ı have ever seen. I think politicians and other people has 1/100 of your decency world would be a better place for sure. keep it up man; I am addicted your videous because you make them so simple so we non astro-science background guys understand so clear.

  1222. At first I thought that it was an album cover haha
    2
  1223. Awesome!
    2
  1224. Great video, thanks. It makes a refreshing change to see a Mars vid that isn't trying to convince the watcher that a pile of rocks is a building, a car, a truck, a tank etc....
    2
  1225. Beautiful

  1226. (ʘᗩʘ’) woah

  1227. One of my mottos is: Our lives are determined by what we pay attention to; the quality of our lives is determined by the quality of our attention to them. But hearing you just now, I realize we must also consider the quality of what we pay attention to. Astrum is a quality channel and worthy of my patronage, however small it may be! Thank you for all the great content you've been producing for years!
    2
  1228. Amazing vid
    2
  1229. Ms Frizzell from the magic school bus was her name. My children loved that pbs cartoon show . I myself have always been fascinated by astronomy. Congratulations once again, love your channel, thanks for telling us more about you and glad to hear that you are planning to put more time into your channel. By the way love your accent as well! ☺

  1237. Without doubt, the best universe and space channel on YouTube. You deserve a TV show. Could you please discuss in future videos the case for existence of planet 9 beyond pluto in our solar system?
    2
  1238. Great video mate
    2
  1239. It's good to put a face to the great voice you have.
    2
  1240. I always enjoyed your astrophysics. On my YouTube watch list, you’re right next to Neil Dg Tyson and Bill Nye. You make astrophysics easy to understand.
    2
  1241. Great Video thanks!
    2
  1242. really nice music 👌

  1245. Just wonderful!

  1246. You're channel is the perfect substitute for those documentaries you mentioned. You make about a 20min video that is SUPER focused on a certain planet, moon or a spacecraft. Its super informative and you find some incredible images. I'm huge in space and i have never seen some of these pictures! You really find the gems. I think I saw you mention somewhere that you plan on continuing the "Moons" series. That would be awesome! I've seen you do quite a few in the past but doing videos around certain probes( where they've gone and what they've seen) is great and I'd love to see more! I know that solar probe just recently launched, once they get some data, that'd be a great one! Also just a note. I'm an astrophysics major and the size of the universe is a fascinating topic. It is almost certainly one of two things. Based on measurements and calculations, the univerae is eaither infinite or really REALLY big. A good way to put it is that, standing on the Earth, it looks flat. But obviously it is a giant ball, we just can't see it. There's a type of curvature in the universe that hints at its shape and size. From our best measurements its flat which means its infinite. But the other possibility is that it is very big and as such it only SEEMS flat. With better measurements we could continue to look but there will always be a margin of error. Just a 0.0000000000000000001 error on the curvature means that there is still that possibility that the curviture is actually there, just too small too small to detect. Thus, if the curvature is too small to measure, the universe could be RIDICULOUSLY big but not infinite. The closer to 0 curvature it gets, it actually approaches infinity (since "flat" in this case means infinite). However, another issue with this curvature is that there are many things it could mean. A "saddle" shaped, plane universe would be infinite and curved. That's just one example of many shapes which could be curved and only some are "spheres" in the sense that it is finite. Btw, there are other shapes it could be where its finite but physical size would be different because of the shape, ie a donut/ toroid, or possibly higher dimensional shapes. So the curvature can give us a lower bond on the size but we can't say for sure what shape or size it is. The actual numbers: if its a "sphere", the lower bound is 50x the radius of the observable universe. Now because this is a 4th dimensional "sphere", there's no edge or center so the radius just allows you to get the sense of the volume. If its a donut, the size could be comparable to the size of our observable universe. This means that some of the galaxies we see are actually double images. We could possibly see the Milky Way even, but it'd be much younger and different looking. This is all pretty abstract stuff. Just thought you and some readers might find interesting!

  1247. I've been subscribed to you for a little bit and every time you put out a new video I have this weird reaction. Like I put it on my watch later playlist and then I skip over it because something in me thinks it's going to be boring or something. But then eventually I watch it (this is why this comment is a week later...) and it's always amazing! And then I wonder why I had the feeling like it was going to be boring or something... Anyhow great content as per usual. I'll probably watch your next video about a week after it comes out... ... :O!!!

  1256. Fascinating!
    2
  1257. Excellent video! Just one question to you cleaver clogs out there... Why has Mars very few visible caters when compared to our Moon which is literally covered with them?
    2
  1258. Could u please do a video on m66 please

  1269. Hi Alex, love your work, I subscribed only a few days ago but I’ve seen all your vids in that time! I have a request/challenge for a topic for you.... It’s pretty hard to see/easy to forget what NASA/ESA (or similar institute) has going on. What are your top 20 missions that they have pencilled in over the next few decades and what are they trying to discover? Basically a summary of what people are to expect in their lifetime. What is the hope that these missions lead to? Keep up your hard, professional work on easily the most interesting channel on YouTube Richard

  1273. Thanks a lot subscribed already even told my friends to subscribe
    2
  1274. More Mars via HiRise would be great. I’ve been following the HiRise YT channel for awhile now too. Lotsa gorgeous 4K pans across the planet’s surface in b&w and color. Not much context or explanation, though, which is where more pieces like this one fit right in.
    2
  1275. Great video
    2
  1276. Wow 😀 what a journey so far. Thank you for that amazing work over the years.

  1279. your videos are so interesting and informative. I'll be eagerly awaiting your future videos. My hope is that you find a way to make this channel into a career. Good luck friend!
    2
  1280. I love your videos, you have a smoothing voice and you explain everything really well, some of my favorites is the supercut of Opportunity's mission, the video on Titan (my favorite body in the system), and your Hubble videos,
    2
  1281. Your videos have helped me fall asleep countles times and i dont see that stopping any time soon. Wish that i could join your patreon.
    2
  1282. Woooooh new video

    2
  1287. Love your channel man I'm super into astronomy and space you just really bring it to life
    2
  1288. It had a rough start, but Hubble is one of the greatest leaps of understanding in our entire history. Never ceases to amaze.
    2
  1289. Awsome videos mate 👌
    2
  1290. Watching Astrum is like watching Stanley Kubrick 2001. Awesome
    2
  1291. Holy fuck being a pilot in-flight during night must be amazing
    2
  1292. Another excellent video, and informative.

  1296. Fantastic
    2
  1297. Mate, your devotion and passion makes your content UNIQUE. I've been suscribed to this channel for years and I feel guilty because I've never commented one of your vids before. You keep it up, we'll follow you to the stars and beyond. I wish you peace and success. Greatings and lots of love from Argentina!
    2
  1298. I absolutely love your videos
    2
  1299. Great video! I enjoy learning about other planets. It's exciting to see images of planets that are so different from earth. The universe is a beautiful and compelling mystery; I find it endlessly fascinating.
    2
  1300. This channel should be added to schools curriculum for high school students to update their knowledge and ever changing science and get them interested in it.
    2
  1301. Great work!
    2
  1302. When Astrum uploads I'm always excited to learn something new or interesting about space. Keep do what you love I will always like you videos!
    2
  1303. Alex, we love you and I can't even tell you how much calm you brought into my live in these tumultuous times. And yes, I agree with other posters – you slower pace is magic and makes your content so precious. Thank you so much!
    2
  1304. I cant understand why something like this would have so many dislikes. Is it the flat earth society maybe or scientists who think otherwise.Will never know , will we.
    2
  1305. Found your channel now and you got yourself a new subscriber, thumps up and supporter. Thanks for the great work. Regards from Sweden
    2
  1306. Superb.
    2
  1307. There aren't many science channels I know of that have presenters with such clear, soothing diction as this one, to say nothing of the thorough research that must surely go into each and every one of these lovely videos. Great for winding down in the late evening.
    2
  1308. Double congratulations man 👍👍 you deserve all the success coming your way. Polished video? Don't worry about that your video quality for it speaks for itself 😎 A discord community would be nice, tho mind you it is more time consuming vis-à-vis your real life obligations.
    2
  1309. Good on you!
    2
  1310. I love astrum I'm so glad he's back!
    2
  1311. Amaizing photographs , is they from NASA/Juno website? Thanks for the update, appreciate.
    2
  1312. I KNEW IT! Some time ago, I commented that you sound like youre constantly smiling. Turns out I was right 😄
    2
  1313. I don't watch short films, as a rule, and look for > 45min, that I can sink my teeth into and get more info than a soundbite. Glad I gave yours a chance plus they aren't the clickbait most are. I see you haven't gone to the 1min vids yet and am glad. Your shorter ones tend to often move along too quickly, though. Space is one thing I prefer to linger on and muse over, as many things are so mindblowing. But really really really enjoying your channel! TYSM!
    2
  1314. We are here, we're weird nerds and we aren't going anywhere!
    2
  1315. Hi! Thanks.. I created this soundtrack to support this channel, it's not a part of any album.. I did it because I like this channel so much :-)
    2
  1316. Great video. Thanks for taking the time!!
    2
  1317. Im kinda confused. How can Uranus be a gas giant,if its surface temeprature is -220 degree Celsius??? No gas can withstand so huge minuses. It should be just pure ice world not a gas giant. Methane boils(freeze) at-182 degree celsius and nothing else has a lower boiling point,if i recall it right. So why is it a gas giant,if all the gas is frozen instead of an ice planet,which it is in the structure???
    2
  1318. Nice
    2
  1319. I love your channel! I'm glad I found it 😉
    2
  1320. Thank you so much for creating this channel Alex. I discovered your channel purely by accident searching for a documentary on Mars and immediately subscribed. Astrum is presented in a professional, informative and entertaining way and would always be my go-to channel for Astrology related matters. As it is improbable I'll ever physically go to space myself your videos help just that extra bit in making me feel like I've already been there.
    2
  1321. Congratulations! Really great videos, especially the actual footage.
    2
  1322. good luck with all your projects, love your work. regards from NYC
    2
  1323. How would a directly imaged planet have less known about it that others? It's closer to us, so it should be easier to study and get information about. You make it sound like being able to see it, is a handicap but I would think all other tests could be done and done easier than dealing with far way objects that we could never see.
    2
  1324. Very well done.
    2
  1325. Fantastic video!
    2
  1326. My place to visit would be also titan. Io and enceladus would be cool too. Or diving through the gap between saturn and his rings like cassini did. F...it i take the whole tour. See u later folks. I'll send Postcards✌
    2
  1327. Amazing! I would love to see more of these images. Thank you. 😊
    2
  1328. Super interesting, wonderful images. Thanks for your time and effort!
    2
  1329. Close to 200K now. Good going!
    2
  1330. Yep I'm WoW'd................................. Totally!!! Will b most definitley check'g out more of Astrum's vid's 4 even more WoW'g, let the WoW'g commence! :D <3 xc

  1331. Great for you!I hope this inspire you to do more
    2
  1332. Beautiful country you live in.
    2
  1333. Congratulations on 2 million! Been subscribed to you for years, and remember the early days when you appeared on camera. Started hearing a couple years ago in the comments that accused this channel of being run by AI 🙄 You do great work Alex! -Cheers from the USA! ✌🏻🇺🇸🤝🇬🇧
    2
  1334. I agree with your view of common dcumentaries, way too much cgi and needless "spectacle". I like your videos because they get to the point right away and use real footage. There is so much great images and videos buried in the nasa and others archives - too much for me to search for. So your compilations are a real treat for me and very interesting. Keep up your excellent work, I really enjoy it!
    2
  1335. Magic...
    2
  1336. Thank you, featuring this on Astral Education https://www.facebook.com/astralslate/
    2
  1337. Thank you for sharing and also your information, wonderful images!
    2
  1338. Saturn has always been my favorite planet. Just beautiful!
    2
  1339. I have really been impressed with your videos. Subscribed after this one especially. If my high school had played your videos instead of those corny, mundane "trying to relate to kids" dialog; I would have realized then how amazing and beautiful space and science in general is. It took me until I was halfway through college to realize this. Long story short , you're not just a channel on YouTube for entertainment purposes. To some, you've re-introduced that original awe and curiosity of space that we had as kids only to lose it to equations,formulas and research papers. (I hate math in case this wasn't apparent) Thank you for reminding me of what I presumed was gone; the desire to question and the need to learn.
    2
  1340. Good luck. I'm glad to see this behind the scenes - its good for some newer subs to know this isn't just a cold content farm.
    2
  1341. So happy you are going to make more videos and I really enjoy every video clip
    2
  1342. Which ever way you may go, I wish you a safe journey and prosperous destination. But please don't forget little me when tomorrow you will be a big man... Okay? :'(
    2
  1343. Human scale is sandwiched between the unimaginably tiny subatomic quantum scale, and the unimaginable vastness of the cosmos.
    2
  1344. huge fan dude. big love
    2
  1345. For some years now I am one of your small Patreon supporters and I have to say, you do great videos. I like your relaxed and motivational style and your voice is very pleasing, even more for non native speakers😊 I am a huge fan of your in depth series of our planets and their moons. Sadly some of the recent videos are not so interesting to me personally but that is completely fine. You can't always make everyone happy, so don't feel bad about it. Thank you for your work ❤
    2
  1346. Keep ‘em coming Alex! Love your channel. You have a really good balance the way you present the information. Not too general and not too complicated either. Combine that with your smooth voiceover and the great production of your videos. I also don’t like all the fluff around commercial documentaries. You got it right, straight to the point. Looking forward to more of your awesome videos.
    2
  1347. Very informative, especially those vents, (thanks for another good video).
    2
  1348. Congrats on the 100k milestone. I came across your Mars video a couple weeks back and I subed right away. Great work, keep it coming I love it. 👍
    2
  1349. Excellent work. So interesting and concise. Scientifically accurate and yet approachable to the common layman with no back ground or education in science. Quite interesting for those educated in science as well. Hats off on a good job London man Switzerland man whoever you are “Astrum” from a UCLA philosopher student of the universe and science, lover of the Gaia hypothesis - the Earth is alive - hydrosphere, lithosphere, atmosphere; a living breathing planet, and we are part of it!
    2
  1350. You are YT vip now. Just lay the law on us.. we are subs! Hahaha! Gj man gl hf.

  1351. Grats on first mate ;-)

  1352. Thank you so much for this!!! The flyby had me in tears it was so beautiful!!!
    2
  1353. My favorite two things about your channel: You have an amazing narrating voice! Your style in delivering the information is very enjoyable!
    2
  1354. Wow, smashing beautiful, mindblowing, thanxxx!
    2
  1355. Thank you! keep going, you are amazing.

  1360. Thank you so much for this!

  1361. 3 years ago i think there was a solar eclipse en my home land Denmark i was so happy to have to see a solar eclipse
    2
  1362. Astrum in Denmark :D
    2
  1363. Astrum never been lucky enough..
    2
  1364. Astrum I have. I also am 459th, as you proud of me?
    2
  1365. Sadly no I m only ten years hopefully I want to see the triple Jovian esclipes from Jupiter's major moons aoropa Ganymede and io will cause the Jovian eslipse however the one in 2017 I did not see that since I was in millerton New York at that time now I am in Henderson north carolina
    2
  1366. Good luck with that Brian. :-)
    2
  1367. No joke I did actually see a partial one.
    2
  1368. The last solar eclipse--The American Solar Eclipse of 2017--happened on my birthday, August 21st 😁 I live in southern Oregon and was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time to observe it in person. It wasn't TOTALLY dark, but it did get super dark and looking at it through the eclipse glasses was super cool. Astronomy is my favorite field of science, so needless to say, it was quite the birthday present 😅
    2
  1369. Alex I was fortunate enough to be holidaying on Anglesey, N Wales, in August of 1999. I didn't see the total eclipse as that was in Cornwall (which was cloudy) but on the beach in Anglesey it was a sunny day. We witnessed a partial eclipse which was magical. All the birds went silent and the air was electric. I watched it reflected in a rock pool.
    2
  1370. Partial but not full
    2
  1371. The "biggest" one I ever saw was in 1994, covered 80% of the sun... all kids from the school gathered in the yard to see and then had a special science class about it. Even TV shows for children had especial episodes about it. A very cool way to inspire and trigger the kids imagination, if you ask me... Good times wondering about lava, quicksand and the eclipse, hehe.
    2
  1372. I've seen may lunar eclipses, but I've only see ONE solar eclipse, last year. I flew to my aunt's small town to see it. It was cloudy but still experienced a sunset that made the sky as if it was sunset 360 all over!
    2
  1373. I saw my first total solar eclipse last August. Being an astronomer myself, I thought I’d be cool about it. But if you look on my channel, you’ll see my actual reaction...
    2
  1374. Yes. I saw the total eclipse in France in 1999. My family drove for 4 hours or so just to sit down for drinks outside a cafe and waited. It was absolutely spectacular, especially the first rays of light when it ended... that "diamond" in the ring. I will never forget it. We drove back shortly after that. 8 hour drive for a few minutes, yet totally worth it.

  1375. Was fortunate to view a total solar eclipse last year, and it was the most beautiful sight I’d ever seen. The light was indescribable, like nothing my eyes had ever seen. I wept. I am grateful, and plan to travel far to see another total solar eclipse. I highly recommend this experience.

  1378. I found this channel (first on my old account) a long time ago and even when there are gaps between uploads at times, it is always a nice surprise to see a new video. Congratulations on all these new subscribers. I always look forward to more Astrum videos but quality is much more important than quantity, so I'm happy to wait. :) Good luck this year!

    2
  1390. Awesome channel thx
    2
  1391. Congrats! I would be a excited about either a subreddit or a discord. I look forward to your next video. The short video idea sounds really cool!
    2
  1392. totally addicted to Astrum. i've never subscribed to any YouTube, Twitter, FB ect ect. content before.... but it's totally worth supporting this channel and content.
    2
  1393. Thank you, Alex! When I watch your videos or listen to your podcasts before going to sleep, I often find myself dreaming about space, galaxies, stars, rockets, and fantastical elements. You made me love space and science! Thanks to your channel and a Stephen Hawking book I stumbled upon around 2020, my fascination with space increased . Now, as I prepare for engineering, my aim is to get into astrophysics.
    2
  1394. Thanks for the update. Your videos are always great. I recommend you try out a internet service called IFTTT.COM to help you post more actively on social media. It allows you to post to automatically post Facebook posts to Twitter or Instagram and lots more.

  1395. It's all good bruh. 🔭💳💱💊💉🔫🗡

  1396. Great stuff as always man! Keep it up!

  1397. Congratulation Alex! Thank you for the endless knowledge you gave us. CheerZ😁
    2
  1398. Here's saturn. This unique planet in the solar system has a large visible ring system that makes for some of the most beaultiful sights you could imagine. and the entire planet smells like farts.
    2
  1399. This is very good quality video. And very interesting subject.
    2
  1400. Your vids are great, really...u deserve better🤗
    2
  1401. Your videos are some of the best ive ever seen! The pacing and your voice plus the fact you bring mind boggling things about the universe to my couch makes the videos an instant click. Wish youtube was more fair and would honor hard and focused work on educational content.
    2
  1402. Thank you :-)
    2
  1403. Congratulations on the 100K! Truly deserved, your videos are so good, informative and soothing to listen to and watch. I agree that making videos about something you are passionate about shows straight away and it tends to capture people and you get a following without having to do much else. I think your space videos is definitely where your successful path is, though I am extremely curious about your other channel now :)
    2
  1404. I have seen 1 of the ice caps & over the cores of a few weeks,i have also seen mars go from the rusty red to a milky colour,you can also see detail of its surface.That said,seeing conditions must be very good or all you may see is its rusty red,but if your thinking of getting yourself a scope,don't be fooled by these cheep scopes that you see in supermarkets with big stunning pix of Jupiter on there box,These scopes are no more than moon scopes,they may give you good views of the moon but they wont show you any details of the planets!! if anyone wood like more advice,please feel free to ask,if i can help in anyway i will be happy to!!
    2
  1405. Great report! Really well put together; explains a rather complex issue in a relatively understandable manner.
    2
  1406. No (assuming hover = without thrust). The point where gravity of both bodies cancel is always closer to the *smaller* body, the barycenter always closer to the bigger. In an orbiting system, you can hover at the Lagrange Point L1.
    2
  1407. love your videos look forward to seeing more !
    2
  1408. Great Video, thank you.
    2
  1409. European roads make me dizzy.. All our roads in the U.S. are contrastingly straight and gridlike.
    2
  1410. I just don’t understand how there’s any light all the way out there. How can they even see this, or pluto? The sun is a tiny little spec in the sky that far out. And light dissipates on an inverse-square law.
    2
  1411. Awesome video dude, Saturn is also my favorite planet of the Solar System
    2
  1412. Whhaaaaaaaat? You live in Switzerland? Me too!
    2
  1413. Congratulations alex.greetings from sri lanka 🇱🇰
    2
  1414. Interested to see why people are disliking this video. What’s not to like? It’s amazing stuff.
    2
  1415. Just fantastic!
    2
  1416. I actually found you around the "Time is an Illusion" and I've been hooked since
    2
  1417.  @astrumspace  logic in a video!? How unorthodox! JK loved the video. Much love from Missouri ❤
    2
  1418. Amazing 😇👍
    2
  1419. Astrum please make more videos!
    2
  1420. Galaxy Zoo has (or had) projects related to the geysers (shown here @ 3:04 and earlier) and deposition of dust during seasonal winds. Citizen science projects are a way you can get involved. Do it!! Thanks Astrum; good info, image choices and narrative...
    2
  1421. False colour images or not, Mars looks amazing! I've seen so little about the polar regions so thank you for your excellent video. More like this please :-)
    2
  1422. Love your videos. I do a lot of narrowband astrophotography myself. Just started a couple years ago: https://www.astrobin.com/users/dugstruble/
    2
  1423. Click them all I did. Can’t wait to see more. Thanks for a great vid.
    2
  1424. i have watched your entire series over nighy i couldnt stop wow mind blown keep up the great work and there are more planets then just the basic ones you feature will you be talking about them as well in maybe a different series ?
    2
  1425. Hey Asstrum, It's funny how Ur-anus is so far out. Because when something is so remote, in Germany we say it is "am Arsch der Welt" (at the ass of the world). The odd axis is because Uranus bent over to moon the sun and establish that it is the fartest. (Although Neptune, the planet of musicians and car enthusiasts, would disagree.)
    2
  1426. great comparison!! love your channel!
    2
  1427. Great video. We humans owe everything to this planet. If Jupiter was not the "hoover vacuum" of the solar system, we would not exist. There would be mass extinction events every several thousand years as objects like shoemaker-levy comet (that broke up into 9 pieces on its entry into our solar system, before it crashed straight into Jupiter) would routinely come and wipe any trace of life off this planet and force mother nature to start all over again.
    2
  1428. Going back to SciFi: watch (or read) "The Expanse"! I only watched the show but is sooo gooood!
    2
  1429. Ill give you a subscription, excellent video. The introduction gave me an understanding of the context, making the whole video more informative. The imagery was breathtaking, and i was pleasantly surprised when you demonstrated what the human eye would see. You didnt delve into speculation like other channels. The outro was also great, and makes me want to mess with some space simulators.
    2
  1430. Thank you so much, great work!!!
    2
  1431. congrats mate... step up getting these vids out, I always enjoy! you are doing a good job. Regards, Dave from England
    2
  1432. cool
    2
  1433. Top vid! Thanks
    2
  1434. thank you so much , that was fascinating .
    2
  1435. My question is: how do we know these planets are tidally locked? Unless we have a way to observe thier orbits clearly, then we just don't know.
    2
  1436. Thank you for these amazing videos.
    2
  1437. I love your content, and your "space can be free for everyone." Additionally, I'm grateful you have such a wonderful team working with you. The patrons on patreon are helping you keep your team and the videos flowing. I'd like to also thank them, too. I respect your openness and commitment. You rock!🌠✊💜
    2
  1438. Well done! Thank you.
    2
  1439. Amazing vid as always! I like it as a format too. Polar C02 ice caps remind me of meringue. The gas escaping and producing those dust trails is amazing too! Can't wait to see photos from on the ground. Come on Elon, fast as you like ;) !!!
    2
  1440. Great work! Love your videos!
    2
  1441. This was awesome dude, thank you
    2
  1442. Stunning! I'm literally stunned. Knew about CMEs but never had the subject presented so well. I nod my cap to you sir. P.s. I'm shitting myself a bit after watching that. But worth it.
    2
  1443. When I close my eyes he seems like the voice, but before the face reveal and while watching him speak it don't seem like he is the voice. Idk I've always pictured an Indian (not native American) who was raised speaking the Queen's English. Anyways, dude should have enough patrons cause the other channels that come anywhere near his in production, writing, topic's, and narration have a ton of patrons. If dude does these himself he is a beast in several areas. He needs to contract or delegate some tasks to others who are great at one thing IE graphics, writing, proofreading and fact checking, etc. That way he he just picks a topic out of a bunch on a list then gets someone to write it, someone to do the visuals, someone to edit it, someone to fact check and such that way he cuts down on his work. He still will have to delegate, make sure folks doing their job and read the script, but that seems much less. Hell guys I like this channel enough I'd dedicate some time to it every week doing one of the needed tasks. I just know I'm more good at everything than awesome at any one thing and really the writing, visuals, proofreading and fact checking, and editing should each be done by someone who only does that one thing and is bad ass at it. Apologies for going thru a time with little extra income, but if I can do anything else to help let me know. Heck I could be one of a few that moderates the chat to keep the spam and hate away. Anyways, if you never make another episode you have enriched mine and many other lives so I hope you succeed in any and everything you do.
    2
  1444. I as well only just discovered this channel recently and I've been binging these videos all week. Which in retrospect seems a bit like a disservice to them since they take so much effort to make... It looks like you're already halfway from 100k to 200k in just the 3 months from posting your 100k video! Congrats on the channel growth, and don't stop making these because they're great! (Maybe get a new machine soon with better rendering capabilities, lol)
    2
  1445. Awesome promo. Space. Really makes me wanna go there :) This video makes me want to unsubscribe just so I can subscribe again! (Thus far I have resisted the temptation though)
    2
  1446. terrific videos, i have subscribed. 1 thing bothers me a little, the music gets a bit loud and i cant hear your voice properly.
    2
  1447. Alex, I don’t know how to break this to you. You are going to be an unbelievable, great success! What you’ve done to point are some of the best and most interesting videos on YouTube—and you did those with one hand tied behind your back! I am sure we’ll all be here to support you fully whenever you are ready to release your videos. Thank-you for all you’ve done and we look forward to watching your future work. Best of luck!
    2
  1448. Congratulation. Right now I have no question, Sorry. cu Toni
    2
  1449. Ohh man!i am a addicted space info geek and seek out new videos/channels to fill up my thirst for real space knowledge. How ppl don't care about the reality and rather they are addicted to alcohol/drugs/insta/fb etc. Man you have the greatest soothing voice I ever heard in my life. And that music makes it just out of this world. Sometimes I watch your videos so late and back to back that I tend to sleep (compliment). Keep up the good work. God bless you man. And do keep creating creative real info videos. Seriously, God bless you (I don't believe in God) but for you man if he exists than better he bless you.
    2
  1450. I can hardly wait for part 2.
    2
  1451. Thank you for the update! Looking forward to next year and wishing you the best of luck with the rest of your studies. :)
    2
  1452. I just found this channel rather recently and I'm going through and trying to watch all your videos. I love this channel!

  1454. THUMBS TWICE IF I COULD

  1455. Excellent work thanks for these gifts
    2
  1456. This is my favorite YouTube channel! Great work
    2
  1457. Your channel works because there’s no click bait and the content is straight to the point. It keeps the viewers intrigued; topics are very interesting. You deserve many more subs. I was here when you had less than 20K and I will be here when you reach the 1M mark. Congratulations! 🎊🎈🎉🍾
    2
  1458. Congrats on the 1st!
    2
  1459. Thanks!
    2
  1460. Came for the science, stayed for the oration and quality storytelling of the vids. Nice to put a handsome face to the voice. 10 years goes by quick. Through some rough times, your voice and content was one of the few things that caught my interest when little else did. Thanks for so many top tier videos. Cheers to continued success!
    2
  1461. Great video. I love NASA vids because they make me feel both small and part of something grand at the same time: the holy quest for knowledge, and the humbling realization that, as Douglas Adams pointed out, we are still grasping at what the questions are.
    2
  1462. The questions are endless, the answers are questionable 👍 Jupiter is my astronomical partner and my Favorite of all ❤
    2
  1463. Hi Alex, notice me
    2
  1464. Congrats Alex! :)
    2
  1465. wow this was really interesting well done
    2
  1466. For everyone arguing back and forth that this is 100% real... or that NASA lies and fakes images. Let me clarify, for any who don't already know... The images, the pics, the snapshots, are all real. The CG ship sailing into the atmosphere of the planet... is CG. The planet below is CG. Its a dramatization... and yes, it IS very misleading, because several people watching this DO assume that that is a real video of Cassini crashing into the atmosphere of an alien planet. ...its not. Its no more real than Superman being rocketed off Krypton. Lol Its CG.
    2
  1467. This channel mastered my interest
    2
  1468. Great video Astrum once again. I really love watching it. Keep up the good work and best of luck for your University submission.
    2
  1469. Love ur page!
    2
  1470. I absolutely LOVE the videos you make and the way you and your team make them!! Please don't ever change or alter it, it's perfect the way it is... I've learned a lot and I'm glad I found people who are fascinated as me about space ...not to mention your calm and sooting voice is perfect for someone like me trying to learn english hehehe 💫
    2
  1471. Truly inspirational. Superb video my friend. I wonder how many future astronomers and astronauts you will generate as a result.
    2
  1472. You should totally do a video on Bootes Void! I think it would be awesome!
    2
  1473. Congrats to you for this big milestone! I always new you were always gonna get more and more subscribers
    2
  1474. Brilliant branding, great channel

  1476. Not gonna lie, the voice fits the face.
    2
  1477. the reason i love your channelso much is because its relaxing and educational. its breath of fresh air in todays hectic and over stimulated world. god bless you, i hope the patreon blows up.
    2
  1478. You have one of the best videos regarding space science and very detailed! Excellent !

  1483. R.I.P Cassini, 20 years of space, you are now one with Saturn, you will not be forgotten.
    2
  1484. Awesome!
    2
  1485. Very educational. Worth watching.
    2
  1486. Missed you astrum. Hello again xx
    2
  1487. I like the background music. Felt like I was in deep cold space seeing this.
    2
  1488. Hi Alex, congratulations on 100.000. Great! Love to watch your video's and you suggesting doing multiple 1 minute video's to answer questions from us, your followers, briljant idea! So here is a question I've had for a long time (and internet doesn't really gave me a satisfying answer yet): How is it possible that Venus with only 90% of earths mass is retaining an atmosphere 93 times thicker? How does that work? I hope you can do something with this. And again, love your channel and video's and really looking forward to more furture video's!!
    2
  1489. It's amazing how long it takes light coming from many of these stars to reach us here on earth.  Some of the stars we see in the sky are so far away, that they're visible because we're seeing light from them that has travelled for many thousands of years.  Gives some idea at how massive.......perhaps endless..... our universe really is.
    2
  1490. Bravo!
    2
  1491. Alex, Thank you for this update, and good luck with everything in terms of University :)
    2
  1492. your videos are very informative. I could watch watch them all day and understand much about space. You haven"t made a video though about the celestrial body that contributes 99.9% of our solar system, can you guess what that is?
    2
  1493. One of your best videos, amigo! Keep up the good work.
    2
  1494. Before this video, I thought your voice was AI-generated😄. I usually watch your videos to see the best space-themed dreams.
    2
  1495. Thanks
    2
  1496. I allmost never comment anything on youtube. But your channel is amazing, your voice made me sleep in the Best possible way for years. You have one of the Best channels on youtube and thank you for your great info on space 🙏 ❤
    2
  1497. Great channel
    2
  1498. Wow I’m late to the party but fortunately it’s not over yet! Thanks for this information, my mind is in awe
    2
  1499. Congratulations!!! (100k, AND your degree!) Titan is an excellent choice. Thank you for your videos, and your content. You are absolutely right about the documentary aspect: overblown graphics, underwhelming content/pace. Your focus is the genius of your productions. Don’t get me wrong! Wonderful visual work. Top notch!
    2
  1500. Outfuckingstanding. great vid bro keep it up..
    2
  1501. Alex, congrats on 100K man. That's an amazing accomplishment!
    2
  1502. I really enjoy your channel. I appreciate the quality and obvious enthusiasm you bring to the table. Good luck on your project and I look forward to seeing more of your stuff.
    2
  1503. time to get the next probe up there for atleast 20 years and get s deep rover into encedeclous and boat rover on titan, dont you agree?
    2
  1504. Thanks Alex, so nice to meet the guy behind one of my favourite channels :-) I was also wondering about your accent and now that you mentioned it, the Welsh is recognisable. You have made such a great channel and I have always (really always, you have no duds) enjoyed watching and learning what you have to offer. Please keep on going, I will show this to my little daughter (Isabella is 1.45 years old) just as soon as she asks about stars, the moon, the sun or whatever (she is currently into dinosaurs so you may have to wait). All the best and congrats on 100k subscribers! Micah.
    2
  1505. Hahaha... Your anus! This is because English language spell it wrong. They say for W= Double V but it's used like "U" and for U=you. So it's "Yourenes" in pronunciation... LOL
    2
  1506. Another fun comparison: If the Sun was the size of a hydrogen atom, Proxima centauri would only be 6mm away and our galaxy would be the size of a basketball court Not only does it show how far away stars are compared to their size but also how frigging tiny atoms really are!!
    2
  1507. If I could, I’d finance the whole team. But I’m broke with my kids having kids, others going to college, & others turning 16, sorry… But thanks for putting these out for the poor folks that love science! Maybe someday I can return the favor. It’s your channel, take it where you want to go!
    2
  1508. amazing videos, plz keep it up!
    2
  1509. Looking forward to part 2.

  1525. Very intriguing.

  1526. I wish they'd send some rovers to the volcanic regions to look for thermal sources that future colonist will need or perhaps track down the source of seasonal methane production . Recently a lake 12 miles long was found under 1 mile of ice on Mars . So how is it that this is possible ? Either there's geothermal heating or something else that's causing the ice to melt . If there's one ,theres more and we'll need to find those sources of liquid water and geothermal sources for energy production to survive . Using solar panels won't cut it on Mars since the entire planet gets enveloped in gigantic sand storms . We'll have to use nuclear power or geothermal sources for energy . We'll also have to live underground or have clear paneling that can filter out cosmic and solar radiation . Also if we're going to survive on that planet we'll have to use LED lighting for growing our food and will have to shield ourselves from the harshness of this planet . Even the sand is radioactive which means we'll need advanced filtration systems to keep the radioactive sands to a minimum . Although Mars may look inviting and somewhat like a place we're familiar with ,the reality is much different . The future colonist will become their own species over time and won't be able to make a visit to Earth after awhile since the gravity would be too much for their bodies to handle unless they had some sort of technology to counter the effects of our gravity . Furthermore their society will develop independent from our own civilization and become very much independent after awhile . In essence they will become aliens to us and vice versa . This is all assuming that this effort will succeed and that they manage to survive at all . We tend to romanticize this notion of colonizing Mars and most don't realize how severe and hazardous Mars truly is let alone the complexities to space travel or how deadly space is . We have many obstacles in our way but I think it's doable .

  1527. Thanks!
    2
  1528. Hey congrats on 100k! (Or 103k by the time I'm commenting this...) Also I feel like you said that doing a small video answering a question would be nice. Also (in my opinion) I feel discord would be that best for a channel group like you were mentioning. Anyway thanks for all of the great content! :)
    2
  1529. Great inspiration
    2
  1530. Wonderful work. Thank you..
    2
  1531. The future of science and astronomy needs guys like you! Keep up the great work, and have my respect! :)
    2
  1532. Thank you.
    2
  1533. there are so many big channels out there but so few of them take the level of effort and have the production quality your videos have. your work is definitely appreciated
    2
  1534. Thanks!
    2
  1535. Superb and informative video! 👍
    2
  1536. Luv your videos a very big support from me .
    2
  1537. Quality video thank you very much :))
    2
  1538. I would never have thought you were so young, having one of the most precise and accurate channels about space on Youtube. Bravo!
    2
  1539. BEAUTIFUL
    2
  1540. keep maken your videos dude man, they are well thought out. may the space be with you
    2
  1541. Want to keep your American audience and make it grow? Translate Kilometers into Miles. (We need the help.) Do vids on the Dwarf Planets and amuse my students by retaining Pluto's Planet status. (Well, it would make me happy.) Further include a CC in your vid, as some of your words are tough to understand. Overall I give you a B+/A-. I will be watching more, and have liked and subscribed.
    2
  1542. You could read the back of ketchup bottles and I would still watch this channel!

  1543. Those images of Pluto are mind blowing. Unbelievable quality.
    2
  1544. A consistently amazing channel with excellent information.
    2
  1545. Wow! I watch most of my viewing on a high resolution tablet and stumbles upon your channel somehow someway. All I can tell you is terrific wonderful concise clear and I'm just referring to your narration. The video and striking photos explaining pass rotations and orbits, well it's just simply some of the best stuff I've ever seen on YouTube. You must be in the industry as it's put together with so much professionalism for a short video that all I can say is kudos to you. I'm going to watch everyone and when I'm done I will certainly be anxiously waiting for the next. Keep up the good work and I do not know how you collected and obtained all this data. You must be working for NASA or dating someone who is. LOL thank you for taking the time out to put that together.
    2
  1546. You quickly became the best astronomy channel on YouTube, the 11 hours of rendering is completely worth it.
    2
  1547. Please don't change.. I love your channel. Keep that passion alive.
    2
  1548. Your (new) logo portraits us viewers as that little person gazing up and you helping us understand it all! just perfect! Love your work. Q: What can I all see with my 50x maginication telescope from my backyard in The Netherlands?
    2
  1549. amazing and very informative . thank you
    2
  1550. Are you going to do something special when you reach 100k subs?..by the way I just love your vids. It feels my heart with joy to see your channel close to 100k subs. When I subed it had 3k subs
    2
  1551. Sweet!
    2
  1552. I saw a smartwatch in a store today had a name Astrum on it. I am going to buy it next month after my pay cheque and gonna send yaa the pics. XD
    2
  1553. I'm really happy for find this channel :) Thanks for every shared videos. I'll be with you are..
    2
  1554. Very nice job, thank you.
    2
  1555. Very entertaining!
    2
  1556. Nice!
    2
  1557. The radiation puzzles me a bit. Just read about the radiation hardened CPU's NASA (and maybe other space agency's use) from IBM for example RADXXXX cpu's and they seem to handle abit of radiation but I guess is shielded pretty heavily also on top of that. What else is in danger? the unshielded (which I guess there is none) electronics would be just bigger cables I guess. Or is it the sensors, cameras and so on that you can not shield as much? is that the main radiation problem? ---edit Wow the view with the southern pole look almost like fractal pattern.
    2
  1558. Awesome video idea! Ain't astronomy and cosmology just great?!
    2
  1559. I love your videos - keep up the great work.
    2
  1560. Wow I just love your videos!
    2
  1561. i lov u dude, if only everyone on earth watched this in 4k and understood it....omg then i would feel so much more at home on this planet
    2
  1562. Thanks!
    2
  1563. WOW, simply amazing!! New sub here. Nice work.
    2
  1564. Very good

  1566. About 30 kms, i guess
    2
  1567. AWESOME VIDEO!
    2
  1568. I thought I smoked too much and realized I smoked nothing. So cool
    2
  1569. That wasn't just a breathtaking video, it was downright inspiring. Hoping for more on this topic, too!
    2
  1570. Thank you.....and thank NASA as well. More would be lovely.
    2
  1571. 700 likes, now lets go to 70k & beyond ,,,
    2
  1572. I love your channel mate. Amazing quality videos watched around the globe (Aussie myself)
    2
  1573. Thanks
    2
  1574. Wonderful video - thank you.
    2
  1575. Amazing video. But you haven't shown my favorite picture made by Cassini and the best astronomical picture ever in my opinion, which shows Saturn eclipsing our Sun, you should look it up.
    2
  1576. One of my favorite channels and proud to support you on Patreon. Really nice to see you in your video, and I like all your new ideas. Shows how much enthusiasm you have for what you do. Onwards and upwards.
    2
  1577. You and Anton Petrov are the absolute best on YT at this stuff. I think whatever you do will work well. If it doesn't then that's okay too. You know what to fall back on.
    2
  1578. Astrum normally pops up in my Recommended videos. I just subscribed.
    2
  1579. Simply astonishing Jupiter is the best as is your videos.
    2
  1580. Followed you for years on here name friend!! Love every video you post, never done a patron before but im going to now, cheers for everything my dude!
    2
  1581. its so imotional...good bye cassini...
    2
  1582. Congratulations! You’ve earned this milestone through your hard work, dedication, enthusiasm, and exceptionally informative and beautifully crafted productions. Don’t stop!
    2
  1583. Ahh my suspicions have been confirmed, you are a fellow Swiss. I could detect the French influence in your German accent. I'm a amateur astronomer as well and stumbled across your video a couple of years ago. I have been following you since.
    2
  1584. ! hello my friend your top 10 beautiful hit it right on the head only thing is your music from number 10 through 5 sounded just like my telephone ringtone over and over I kept checking my phone LOL keep bringing the great videos thanks
    2
  1585. I LOVE YOUR CONTENT ALEX!!! I feel similarly about going on youtube and searching for space related content and finding fluffy discovery channel stylings with more CGI than the third matrix and AVP.. I have been watching your channel non-stop lol. Personally I want to watch more content about earth as well, a bit about its origins, some mind-blowing features on land and in water, etc. Your content is the most honorable!!
    2
  1586. As long as you stay the face (or voice I guess) I'm certain ill watch! Same routine for the last 2 years; I smoke a J, I watch Astrum for an hour, I drink a tea, I go to bed. <3 love the videos :)
    2
  1587. Thanks!🐱👾
    2
  1588. Never stop what your doing, this is my addiction. I absouletly love space and this is just what I need, thanks alot man!
    2
  1589. Right on. I'd love to travel in space. Hello from Canada
    2
  1590. I enjoy all of your videos. However, you have the market cornered for extremely thoughtful and well composed in-depth ones. There are many "space news" videos out there but only one Astrum. My hunch is, some of what makes your videos special (eg: bring viewer up to knowledge level then tie ideas together) can only come from the post-hoc perspective (loss of the analysis dimension). You certainly rocked it with this video. But since "nothing" has happened yet from a science standpoint, and the hardware faces a Big Test, it's tough form new ideas (your own) from the information. I guess this is a big part of what I like about your channel. A reasonably well-educated person walks away having learned something new or is inspired to further study from from your take on the information. Your extraordinary capacity to translate mundane facts into fascinating stories and perspectives is somewhat hamstrung by timely presentations. If anybody can make it work though, it's you. Hopefully this is a trailer to a longer 6-month followup :) :) The "boogieing Earth" plate tectonics animation was hilarious, btw.
    2
  1591. Excellent! Great overview. I sent it to my Dad, too, as we'll both be watching on Monday. Thanks for the great info.
    2
  1592. Great to have 2 vids in one week......even 1 per week would be great......you have so much to teach us
    2
  1593. I appreciate the insight (hah) as I likely wouldn't know about these things otherwise.
    2
  1594. Yeah this was great, you can do this sort of stuff very well. I like your big epic documentary ones too of course, but it's great to see your content mix grow. Keep it up. P.S. 126k subs nice work :)
    2
  1595. +Astrum Good informative video. I didn't even know about this mission. Sounds interesting. :-)
    2
  1596. great work! i wasn't following this mission so it's good to know about it when it's about to happen!
    2
  1597. Just as I'm trying NOT to think about it...... Oh for it to already be there, having landed safely and already sending back data
    2
  1598. Astrum Thank you, well done 🙂
    2
  1599. WELL DONE!! VERY INTERESTING!!
    2
  1600. the video was great. I guess the Airbags are a rougher landing then they thought, so they went with the rockets.
    2
  1601. Awesome vid n pic of the space... Love it! Keep it up
    2
  1602. Yeah, want more videos of this type. May as well familiarize ourselves with the next planet we'll be setting foot on soon.
    2
  1603. Andy Capp No, That's not true. Sedimentary layers are caused by layers of...well...sediment! The actual origin of the sediment can vary, and while a lot of Earth's is pulverised shells, that doesn't mean it all is. A lot of it is rock that has been eroded into microscopic fragments forming muds and sands, and this is the case on Mars. Of course, this doesn't mean there never was life on Mars, but if there was it probably never got beyond microscopic organisms and the search continues.
    2
  1604. I love all your videos! I hope you really do recognize your potential! <3
    2
  1605. Thanks, this is seriously good. Really enjoy watching
    2
  1606. This a surprise as a quality presentation. Well done, Astrum.
    2
  1607. Mind blowing
    2
  1608. Absolutely brilliant!
    2
  1609. SO good to finally see you. You’ve created an amazing team. Definitely worth patreon support!
    2
  1610. Thank you for all this wunderfull videos and High Resolution Pictures. Greetings from Germany
    2
  1611. Same here, no other channel deserves to be in my bell icon except this one. XD

  1612. GREAT video!!!! Really enjoyed it!
    2
  1613. thank you very well done
    2
  1614. Thanks!
    2
  1615. It really is beautiful.
    2
  1616. Great video! As a coincidence, I just started getting into solar imaging a short while ago. I have done a few good images and just did my first prominence animation: https://www.astrobin.com/345736/B/ My first one. Hope to do better down the road.
    2
  1617. I absolutely love your content, please continue rocking it!
    2
  1618. Beautiful video and musik. Very celestial.
    2
  1619. Alex, your channel is truely outstanding! You upload amazing videos. Videos which are based solely on facts, never on conjecture nor from an uninformed bias, and rarely on just speculation (unless speculation is intentional: i.e. life outside Earth). Your channel IS UNDERRATED and deserves much more recognition. Thank you for your great work. I look forward to these videos every week. Great job, Alex. Keep them coming.
    2
  1620. A well deserved subscriber count. You deserve way more subs doe. Your content is top notch.
    2
  1621. I like how you present your videos, honestly. It's like I'm listening someone professional that knows their topic; someone that I could listen to for hours while I'm doing something. Keep doing it, Astrum and team 👍
    2
  1622. Your Videos are very good, thank you
    2
  1623. How beautiful is ur country bro.thumbs up ur work.we from sri lanka
    2
  1624. ha well a little closer than I guessed, but unimaginable.  good video are you an astronomer? or in school for astronomy or is it just a hobby?  you are very knowledgable and a good teacher.  thanks for the information, I was just out staring up at the sky and saw these blinking stars and my husband said....google it...thank goodness for the internet...LOL  oh the swiss countryside is gorgeous! Nothing like florida in the u.s. no mountains.
    2
  1625. wonderful video
    2
  1626. Very good.
    2
  1627. Mind is blown.........
    2
  1628. This was a great vid mate, cheers!
    2
  1629. I discovered Astrum by accident, the voice pulled me in - it's very similar to 'Uhtred' of the show The Last Kingdom. Very distinct and quirky. Soothing, like Brian cox. The voice kept me here lol. Keep it up.
    2
  1630. I feel you on the algo its brutal ... i guess ill support you on the patreon instead as your workk is more important than people may realise!
    2
  1631. nice bro

  1637. Be prepared hoomans. The Last Of Us 2 is coming soon. If we get hit you can reach me at this frequency -> 696699 ok stay safe.
    2
  1638. I used to wonder why if heat rises, why do I get colder the higher up a mountain I go. Science is strange and fascinating indeed. So many factors at play.
    2
  1639. Great video man
    2
  1640. another way to imagine the size of the milky way.. if it was the size of the solar system, the solar system will be the size of Germany, the distance from the sun to the edge of solar system will be the distance from London to Leeds, and the distance from Earth to the Sun will be the walking distance from Marble Arch to Trafalgar Square in central London..
    2
  1641. Thank you! Very well done! I wish the earlier astronomers could have lived to see this!
    2
  1642. One of the best channels. You need more subscribers.
    2
  1643. EXCELLENT! congratulations. the hard work really shows. I saw the Southern Aurora from Melbourne during the '89 CME.
    2
  1644. "induced magnetosphere" - mind blown! thanks for yet another great video!
    2
  1645. Nice to meet you dude!!!!!!
    2
  1646. Beautiful country
    2
  1647. Why do I feel sad, but pretty good video!
    2
  1648. Great video. I love how much information is hidden in those images. When I look at them, I just see pretty pictures....
    2
  1649. I love your channel and also you look exactly like I expected, and you're quite handsome. Like a young Tom Hiddleston.
    2
  1650. ! very interesting I'd like to see something on Jupiter if you got it thank you very much appreciate your hard work can't wait to see more
    2

    2
  1653. Right on Bud! Good work!
    2
  1654. Just had to say thanks. I've watched Astrum for a while now and I love everything about space. Your voice is perfect and whatever direction Astrum goes I will follow.
    2
  1655. Nice 👍 video keep up the good work dude 💖david
    2
  1656. Just happy to know you’re a real person and not an AI. Keep it up!

    2
  1659. Your channel and videos are a big reason why I can sleep at night. Whatever direction you go I support you. Your space videos are informative, educational and thought provoking. Thank you, from everyone who watches you.
    2
  1660. No worries dude, concentrate on getting that 1st class honours and I'll look forward to the vids whatever the schedule is.
    2
  1661. Good job thank you.
    2
  1662. Perhaps a second channel for non space stuff? I really enjoy the videos you make. can not wait for more.
    2
  1663. Thanks a lot. You have really great information ,video and narration. I see you put a lot of time and effort into these videos and I hope people appreciate it.
    2
  1664. ok I will take a guess. 0.0015 mm for roughly 1.5 million kilometers (solar radius) so 1 mm = 1 billion km, and 10 meter is 10 000 billions kilometer or roughly 1 LY. at this scale, the milky way, which is 100 000 LY across, would be 1000 km in diameter.
    2
  1665. Yes! We did it man! 🚀🚀🚀
    2
  1666. 3 15 2018 Hey Astrum (cool name-star), Thank you for the spectacular post! Be well & all the best with your studies. v

  1671. Hi astrum. Love your videos. Any chance of a shout out to my crazy low budget astrophotography channel www.youtube.com/astrobiscuit. (totally understand if you don't) - keep up the good work😜
    2
  1672. Hi Alex, so nice to eventually meet you. Your video are mind blowing and brings amazing wonders. I hear you! We leaving a life so much depending of trend and fashion. I patreon people who bring me things just by altruisme deserved to be reward for their work research and comitment wish you success to stabilise Astrum. And hope to contributing to your goals.
    2
  1673. I love the slow pace. I often watch your videos before going to sleep to calm my brain down and watch something that sends me off dreaming about space!
    2
  1674. Brilliant video!! Good job, my man. ✌️
    2
  1675. I used to take Ambien to sleep. I switched to Astrum. Thank you
    2
  1676. Hi. I just subscribed your channel and actually opened a gmail account for the first time in my life. I'm a Turkish lawyer, and just as a hobby, I enjoy reading and watching stuff anything about the universe and its contents. Although I sometimes feel difficult to understand some of your words, I really do like your style. Good luck with your lectures.
    2
  1677. Your YouTube channel is the definition of quality content
    2
  1678. I really love this channel! Keep up the great work!
    2
  1679. Wow! Congrats Alex ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
    2
  1680. You fill the niche for people who are facinated in the universe beyond our own planet perfectly! Thanks Astrum, congratulations on 100k
    2
  1681. I might sound like a broken record but your content is realy amazing.
    2
  1682. Thanks
    2
  1683. Excellent work!
    2
  1684. Best of luck for the future man I love your voice/accent in your documentaries.
    2
  1685. Thanks!

  1687. Love your channel lots of information David
    2
  1688. Awesone channel with awesome content and great quiality 💖🌍🌟

  1689. Your Channel is my meditation
    2
  1690. Thanks! I'm not a fan of monthly payments, so here's my contribution for 2024. Jeff
    2
  1691. If I win the lottery jackpot you become richest youtuber!
    2
  1692. Hi Alex. Notice me.
    2
  1693. love this channel
    2
  1694. Love your videos !
    2
  1695. You really nailed it when you said that documentaries are full of needless drama, hyperbole and repetition (the latter often because they are constructed around ad breaks)so feel it necessary to constantly recap. I love how you explain everything in your narration whilst at the same time treating your viewers with having sufficient intelligence to understand the information. You are my favourite You-tuber. I am curious about your accent though but haven’t finished the Q&A yet to find out if you were asked that question. And big congrats on 100,000 subscribers. A great milestone. Now for 1,000,000 - reach for the stars!
    2
  1696. Suddenly I got the urge to watch Europa Report again :-)
    2
  1697. Do what you love, I'm always looking forward to the next video, thank you for everything.
    2
  1698. Fantastic, not too in depth, not too simple, comparisons while explaining what we are seeing to Earth are great. Jewel of a channel so keep it up. Love it! Shame not more often, but Quality over Quantity any time.
    2
  1699. They see me rolling, patrolling... Joke aside, it's a great and interesting video
    2
  1700. F! Interesting! Universe Rules!..
    2
  1701. 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
    2
  1702. I hope your channel gets the recognition it deserves. Great video!
    2
  1703. Only 6 minutes.... I could listen for hours.
    2
  1704. I love your videos! This is one of my fav youtube channels, thank you so much! <3
    2
  1705. So nice to put a face to the voice, Alex. Thank you for all your content over the years!
    2
  1706. congrats on the 100k subs......please carry on with these great videos.......you are teaching us so so much!!!!.....I did detect a slight Welsh accent...being Welsh I can here it in the lower tones lol......
    2
  1707. Another interesting fact about Hubble's Veil nebula photo. They made another one recently. So there's a time gap of almost 20 years between the two photos. And it's enough so you can see the change in the filaments position. Here's this comparison made by ESA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4JihreUQiI
    2
  1708. A new favourite chanel!
    2
  1709. You make amazing, beautiful and really in depth vids man. Love it!
    2
  1710. GG Alex
    2
  1711. What a great video. I really enjoyed watching this. Ive subbed and off to watch your Neptune video.
    2
  1712. This was a great video! Really cool getting to know you!
    2
  1713. Hi! I came here to your channel because someone commented on a Dreksler Astral video "if you love this channel you have to check out Astrum" so yeah, here I am. Great video! Liked and Subbed. It seems I have many past videos to catch up on. Thank you in advance!
    2
  1714. I never would have guessed how interesting this video was actually going to be. You learn something new everyday? I just learnt 100 new things in 17 minutes 35 seconds. Congrats, amazing video, just like all your other videos. I will finally subscribe like I should have 50 vids ago.
    2
  1715. Good luck in your final year, I am there as well. My son likes your channel, he can fall asleep well to your voice, which he often does on space science videos ^^ Question for Q&A: Assume humanity were to become a multi-stellar race, and assume we never can go faster than light speed. What do you think is the maximum amount of light years or stars a functioning civilization / nation can span, and what would government look like in your opinion?
    2
  1716. 4 Light years to Alpha Centauri at 168 million miles per hour isnt that roughly 5,887,000,000,000 miles? lol I dont even want to try that math when scaled down to a grain of sand... I'm guessing your going to drive 3 Kilometers?
    2
  1717. Your videos are so professional and well done, I have enjoyed all of them. The universe is a strange and wonderful place. Thanks for sharing it with us.
    2
  1718. Love your passion for space, keep up the good work!
    2
  1719. Congratulations with your 103k subs. You deserve more subs, but with the quality of this channel they will come :) Greetings from the Netherlands.
    2
  1720. Thanks for showing a bit of the behind the scenes. It is always important for us viewers to celebrate the work of writers and editors :)
    2
  1721. Quality beats quantity every time, and your vids are of high quality so people will be more patient. Good luck with your studies!
    2
  1722. شكرًا
    2
  1723. Good wishes on all your ventures. Although i can honestly say i will and have been disappointed not to be able to watch your incredible videos very often (new ones) that is. But i am thankful your coarse will actually bring an improvement to your already fabulous videos. :)
    2
  1724. Your videos are so professional and watchable. I always learn something new. I hope you continue to inform and entertain us. A big 'Thank You'.
    2
  1725. you are increadeble men, respect to you, hove can you learn so much abouth astronomi. o and your videos are cooler then natgeo videos!!! and sorry for my bad anglis, i learn it from tv cartoon netvork:-)

  1730. So Interesting how little we know about our own neighbours.
    2
  1731. Thanks!
    2
  1732. 6 22 2018 Hey Alex & Astrum Team, How spectacularly lovely is this post?-VERY! I must admit, I am completely obsessed with transits. After the Venus transit, I did some reading about the length of time between transits on other planets. I imagined what the transit of Uranus would look like if I was on Pluto; fun. It was interesting how infrequently they occur with the outer planets. I think the next transit for Uranus will be 67k years from now; I'll go back & check to let you know. Thanks for the post! Be well. v

  1739. Always enjoy your videos. Your voice conveys your passion and your words make it accessible for a broad audience to understand.

  1740. Alex please continue making these videos. I find them fascinating. Your comment about documentary's being too long and full of unnecessary visuals is total correct. There are so many amazing thing to see, on earth and beyond, just focus on the real. Thank you for the effort.

  1742. 6 2 2018 Hello and good day Alex/Astrum, Another informative review; thank you! A comment, I have is how civil people are in the comment section! If that changes, I would hope those individuals go away...or their comments are deleted. Be well. v P.S.: I think you should have a gazillion subscribers.

  1746. Martian dunes, I passed hours looking at Lori Fenton's blog on Mars. Now this, is my favourite space exploration channel, thanks for your dedication :)
    2
  1747. Great channel, buddy! Keep up the great work. Can't way to see what's in store!

  1751. Great video !! Your chanel will grow soo much in a copule of months !! Keep it up !!
    2
  1752. Google Earth.... on Mars?! I need to check this out.
    2
  1753. Astrum I love your videos! They are equally as amazing to watch as SciShow Space or PBS Spacetime. I discovered Astrum several months ago and now I've seen every episode. They're so many interesting facts and new data about stuff that I've never seen before. Like that episode you did on Mars that showed all that amazing Martian geography...wow. From a technical standpoint they are all beautifully made with beautiful cinematography, like the "how far away is this star or galaxy" ones. Also, lucky for you, you have a FANTASTIC VOICE and do top-notch narration. You have a clear way of speaking, even with your accent, and the pace is perfect. Your accent makes it better actually because it adds something different. I can't wait to see what you do with this channel.
    2
  1754. This is a really well made video. Your videos have always been great, but it feels like the quality is really improving a lot lately.
    2
  1755. Awesome thanks
    2
  1756. 9 9 18 Hey Alex & the Astrum Team, I am happy for you! Let's chat when the channel reaches 500k; will be soon I imagine. Be well, happy gazing. v

  1761. My dream is to see one day auroras in the sky, any sky. If this is the price to see one, I may have tears of joy. We can rebuild, no matter the amount of time. This cut in technology will simply makes us stronger. We passed the point of going back to the middle ages or lower. We know how to make cars and we still will. We know how to produce the goods. Even if many dies, even if many suffer, even if the darkness take over us, there is still a day after the night. This may be a slap on our face, reminding us our place. Those who panic, console them. Those who miss the old time, show them the world. The worst that can be: 100 years of step back in technology for 10 years. Governments will suddenly loose their tools to spy on us. Economy may suffer, but who cares when you submit yourself to make crops in your garden since your techno oriented career is doom for some time like me. But no matter what, if it happens, let show the universe that this is nothing. We may need little push to go foward. If this generation is not living one, may we remind our children this may happen. Let's hope for the best.
    2
  1762. Been watching ever since I recommendation algorithm blessed me with hundreds of hour of high quality content. Watching it in the background or listening to it while I fall asleep. If my financial situation improves in the future I'd love to support. I personally whish you and people behind astrum all the best.
    2
  1763. Excellent video. Of course I had know idea how far Alpha centuri was. And so far on video you've gone 10km. Thanks for a job Well done. Consider me very interested
    2
  1764. I have seen in other documentaries that if we reduce sun to a grain of sand then Alpha Centauri is 5 mile away .i.e. 8 Km. But this video shows 30 km...which one is correct?
    2
  1765. Whenever I'm winding down and in bed, I ALWAYS look for videos of yours that I have not seen yet, which is quickly becoming a shorter and shorter list. Ever since discovering your channel, not a single night has gone by that I have not watched one of your videos as I'm laying in bed (you'd have to see when I subbed to you to do the math lol). It's the chill vibes and the insanely interesting content that keeps me watching and it's so incredibly annoying that YouTube does this. I've actually been working on a gaming channel for a while now and lately I've noticed some really wonky things in my analytics which is not a good thing for a channel as small as mine. My (amateur) advice is to keep on the same path because there are so many amazing things happening soon in the astro world that space-focused channels are surely going to explode from. Video platforms in general seem to be catering to younger and younger audiences, which of course means EXPLOSIONS AND FAST CUTS AND LOUD TALKING AND COLORFUL FLASHING. Don't get me wrong, I love MrBeast type videos, but there's a time and place lol. Okay I'm done rambling, I'll shut up 😅.

  1766. Fan f**king fantastic! Congrats on the 2 million and all the amazing videos.

  1779. F**k yeah! Cool stuff.
    2
  1780. While we can not peer deeper into the Sun, the study of waves on the surface (some of which you briefly mentioned), known as helioseismology, gives us scientists a good understanding of deeper layers of the Sun. I highly recommend looking into it (and maybe turning it into a video as well, Alex ;) ?)

  1781. big fan of this channel, great work!

  1782. Those images were really breathtaking damn!

  1788. First of all you're voice is spectacular sir, and you've created one of my favourite science channels, one of the few that actually teach me things like Dr. Becky, Anton Petrov, NurdRage and NileRed. Thanks for all the wonderful content ❤
    2
  1789. love your videos !
    2
  1790. Love your channel, keep it up!
    2
  1791. We only started watching Astrum a couple of years ago and now can't wait for each episode. The pace, depth of information and your narration are a joy in this time of shallow content, click-bait titles and dreadful AI narration. As soon as I get over a total bank account hack, I will be joining your patreon channel. Thank you for your personally explaining the change you are making to be able to keep a great channel going.

  1792. Very engaging session. Keep up the great work

  1803. awesome thanks heaps, always look forward to new videos!
    2
  1804. All the very best for your Uni project. Astrum is a channel that I absolutely love! I wouldn't mind waiting 10 years for a video! Everytime a video is out, I watch it 5-6 times just admiring the quality of it. And then I immediately share if with other groups! Your channel is so good! And it's really exciting as a fan of the channel to know that we are gonna get more content from next year. Can't wait! I'm not sure if you already have one, but I'd also recommend starting a Patreon for the channel so that willing subscribers can contribute to it. Really looking forward to next year! Best wishes from India!

  1829. Paul Hotson ok there are several problems with those graphs that makes them statistically skewed. First, not all of those 1,218 USHCN weather stations have reported data continually since 1895. In fact, it’s not even close. The US did not have that many weather stations in the 1890s, so that means that the averages are being built off of many more data points in the later parts of the graph than in the earlier part (this speaks to the lake of data accuracy). Second, of course you will see a larger number of “anomalies” (both record highs and record lows) in the earlier parts of the graph. This is due to the lack of a baseline for those counts. If you don’t have any data, then virtually every sample you take is going to be a record sample. Once the dataset has been established and you have enough data points to make a comparison too, then you can start to draw conclusions (as in the later few decades of the graph). What’s actually important in those graphs is not the actual number of record values being recorded, but that that number remains relatively constant. This speaks to the slope of the average temperature graph. If temperature were not increasing, we would not expect the count of record values to remain relatively constant. The constancy of those values means that temperature continues to increase at a relatively constant rate. Furthermore, it’s not the number of extreme temperatures that’s really relevant to this debate. The more relevant number is what those temperatures actually are - each record high is hotter than the previous, likewise, each record low is colder than the previous. This speaks directly to a more extreme climate. Third, the initial large peak that you see on nearly all of the graphs during the 1930s corresponds with the dust bowl, which was another human-caused climate anomaly in the United States. So of course there were extremes during that time. I don’t like drawing conclusions from data that missing the pertinent background explaining how it was compiled or without seeing the raw input values, but even the graphs you just shared are characteristic of a warming, more extreme climate, not the latter. This is exactly why scientific research is subject to scrutiny from peers before being published. That is how we avoid publishing misleading information, like what’s found on this blog.

  1830. Thanks for your great presentation of the video
    2
  1831. I've been watching your video for a few years now and been a subscriber for most of that. This is the first time I have seen your face and TBH I was expecting someone older, not that I am disappointed, quite the opposite. It's great to see someone so young and knowledgeable providing really informative and educational content and not "chasing" the likes with audacious content.
    2
  1832. Amazing. !!!
    2
  1833. Very cool! Enjoyed as always

  1834. I like it, and no-one is saying this one is "clickbait"....so i shall subscribe.

  1841. I can't find the link at the moment, but somewhere on NASA's website they have an image faq that explains it. It isn't just a camera popped onto the satellite. Essentially its lot of data collection, and Cassini used three different filters as well. The data being sent back has to be as small as possible to be easy to send. It is similar to how the hubble takes photos. It will take photos of the same object through multiple filters which then can be combined, assigning blue light to the data that came in through the blue filter, red light to the data read through the red filter and green light to the green filter, to create a color image. But the images aren't taken at the exact same time, so they have to be essentially lined up to get a color image. Which is why sometimes pics are a bit blurry or just left black and white.

  1849. Congratulations for your work. It is really well done. Explanation is great and so are the images! How is light pollution where you live? Do you own a telescope? Where do you live in Switzerland by the way? I've been in Switzerland myself a handful of times. Greetings from Brazil!!!

  1855. Beautiful arranged video, as always. #34 - RAFGL 2688 Is it really a dying star or more likely a young protostar in later state of formation? That it is what I read from wikipedia description: "The bipolar outflows in the image indicate that the system has angular momentum, which is very likely generated by an accretion disc." Isn't a "accretion disc" more a feature of a young forming star then a old one? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_Tauri_star

  1856. Thanks for sharing an informative package of information.

  1857. I really like what you’re doing, its also nice to put a face to your voice, lm Dyslexic and reading is not a option so I depend on good people like you making good educational content, a big thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge,

  1862. I certainly appreciate everything you and your team have done so far. There is soooo much garbage on social media. This channel is quality. When I am getting ready for bed at night and I start watching there is an immediate sense of calm attention. Your channel sets the bar for top quality content. Your narration is perfect & the graphics are amazing. I can't imagine what it takes to put it all together. You help my old brain understand the way things work. And that is valuable to me 😅 I will definitely be checking out yr patreon and sending a few bucks your way every month.
    2
  1863. Just found this video and have to express my delight with both your content and your personality. Your low key, factual, high quality content is a breath of fresh air, your content is pitched perfectly for the audience and the subject matter is fascinating. As an Australian barbarian I would never have picked your ethnic origin as Welch, an additional delight. I wish you every success and happiness for the future and assure you that I will be watching everything you provide for us. If this is gibberish, blame Google, lol: Dymunaf bob llwyddiant i chi, mae'n haeddiannol iawn.

I have been watching Astrum videos for about 7 years now and I have found your content to be both educational and entertaining but best of all gripping and captivating. I hope you find the support you need to continue doing your amazing work. Best of luck to you and your team members.

  1866. Wow wow 😮 😮 wonderful

  1867. You may produce shorts in addition to your common videos, It's so rare to have a channel that is different, please never change.

  1868. Holy guacamole… been watching your videos for some time and I got your book too when you published it . I always in my mind imagined you to look like Carl Sagan or Neil de grass Tyson . But I’m blown away by how young you are . As always your content is amazing and I have watched every single video you post ever since YouTube algorithm first showed me your video thumbnail . You would be a great narrator for an audiobook . But regardless I’m glad you started a Pateron . I would love to support your effort

  1869. You are a good guy. I always love the way you explaine things about space. Once my paypal is active again, believe me, I will support you. Keep up the good work, maestro

  1881. ❤ I love your voice and fantastic content. I'm a 70yo now (and in poor health) but your channel helps me continue to learn about space, a subject which has been a favourite of mine since I was a small child, before my family even had a television...!! Books and radio drew me, TV, and later the internet, only made it easier. Astrum is the :icing on the cake' as it so easily explains sometimes quite complicated matters etc. Sadly, I have, unfortunately no bank accounts, so have no way to donate to you (or any other) channel's Patreon, or via the YouTube 'Thank-You' device, so am sorry I cannot join in to help financially...😢 I hope to still be able to watch and learn from your videos, as I have up to now. Thank you for all of your endeavours and dedication. And, thank you for wanting to clarify your decision to extend your financial intake, so that you and your splendid team can continue to educate, entertain and enhance our lives as avid viewers of Astrum.❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🙂🇬🇧🖖

  1883. I thought the recent contact video was one of your best Astrum, do what you gotta do this channel is essential.

  1884. I have a unique story to share with you. Your content got me through one of the most painful weeks of my life. I had my first kidney stone and during that week was doubled over in pain in the fetal position for hours and hours. I found your channel and something about your voice along with the content got my mind to focus on something other than the pain. Thanks for that, and keep doing what makes you do great.

  1885. The community has got your back.

  1886. If it's any consolation. I consistently have to watch your videos twice. Once to fall asleep. Second to actually watch it. Lol Keep up the good work bud.

  1887. Awesome! I love your channel and your voice! The content you produce is amazing! Thank you and congratulations!

  1888. Please keep Astrum the way it was so far. This channel doesn't need any change "going forward". Remember that old saying ... if it's not broken, don't change it!

  1897. I’m 49. I’ve been into space, space flight, astronomy, and aeronautics my whole life. All I had when I was a kid was dusty library books usually out of date information wise. I wish there had been things like this when I was young. I love the modern day renaissance space has enjoyed. Keep up the work.

  1898. Love your stuff ❤ Your videos are educational, interesting and calming. The pace, graphics, video content, interesting information and your voice are a great combo. Great Job and will happily support you 👏 I am fascinated by anything to do with the Cosmos since Carl Sagan in the 80s and have learnt many new things from your videos in particular your Pluto video. For many years I fall asleep watching some kind of video content and recently it’s been space related things. As an added bonus to learning new stuff about Cosmology your voice is very calming. I’ve fallen asleep multiple times watching your content, thank you ❤ (Posted by Steve using Nancy’s account)

  1900. Thank you for all you've done over the years Alex! I alwats have loved the channel! Just my opinion but I would love to see more of a focus on the classic factual space videos you've done in the past, such as the Hubble Top 100 and the planet overview videos. While the other videos are great I do find the more theoretical and "big question" videos hard to follow and go back to for a second viewing!
    1
  1901. I love what you have done so far and continue to achieve Alex. I've watched or rewatch your videos every night over the years. I truly enjoy your work Alex. Keep up the good work that you and your team have achieved. 🤝🏻

    1
  1922. We drove our kids 11 hours just to see totality. They didn’t want to go at first but once they witnessed the eclipse they all thanked us for making them go. We will be doing it again on the next American eclipse.

  1923. Yes, over 30 eclipses. Every time a new experience.

  1924. I had a chance once when I was a child. I slept whole afternoon, but I think I have seen Lunar ones.

  1937. I've watched every single one of your videos since i subscribed 6 years ago and have often left a comment to thank you for your work or to joke around with the good old "hi you're alex mcolgan and I'M watching astrum ; hi astrum im dad" stuff like that, because i know how the algorithm works, and i sincerely wish you to capture as wide an audience as possible. people like you, fraser cain and other science and space communicators deserve their voices heard and shouldn't rely on the whims of some platform to spread knowledge and curiosity, i wish you to get the independence you seek and to keep up the amazing work like you've been doing

  1953. You are a true MAESTRO Alex. I don't usually comment on your videos about how awesome they are because it would be boring. But thanks for showing us your face, you have earned another supporter on Patreon.

  1965. Your videos are among my favourite content available on this platform and I frequently listen to astrum sleep space when going to bed! Thank you for all our your hard work over the years! ❤

  1966. I love how you aren't pushy with this, and even show your empathy with those that can't afford a financial contribution on Patreon. Also love how you've resisted injecting too many ads into your regular videos, unlike some science channels on Youtube. Both of those things really mean something, and have convinced me to become a paying subscriber. Thanks Alex, keep being awesome.

  1974. Fun fact, I was completely disinterested in Monday's eclipse until I watched your eclipse video. Listening to you enthusiastically describe the planets and moons scooting around each other made it all sound so playful and fun and interesting. I got a solar filter for my camera for the eclipse, plus I can take pictures of sunspots now. They're not great pictures of sunspots, but it's still cool to look at them. You're a legend and a treasure.

  1984. I love the long videos. Really fascinating to listen to, learn a lot, can have it on at work and it makes me happy. But the shorter ones are also useful, when I don't have much time, I can still get some quality information in my brain and a relaxing voice ^_^ win-win Thank you Alex and the rest of the team.
    1
  1985. Your voice just sounds so happy, you really like what you're describing and i can tell it's authentic. I only found your channel less than a year ago but a big fan. I think my subconscious knows a lot more about astrophysics now, but i love paying close attention to every minute of your videos when I'm awake even more😅

  1990. HELP! I just learned stars cannot form in the way we're told they do, it's not possible! The heat resonating from a protostar would cancel out the gravitational force so it would be impossible to get stars to grow any larger. Shock waves from a near by super nova is not the answer either! Let's admit we don't really know how stars are formed, it's not a bad thing, I think it adds another mystery to this beautiful universe. Please make a video addressing this issue.

  1991. my 12 yr old son watched your long perseverance rover vid while building the lego technics perseverance with ingenuity ... was a special day ... I will buy your Astrum hoodie ..very nice ,this channel has a special magic to it, I can't really explain it...

  1999. I've learned a lot from your videos. That's why I chose to be a member of your YouTube channel. Sadly, I had to choose the cheapest option, but I still hope it helps you and your channel as much as your videos help me educate myself about our world and cosmos.

  2007. Your audio should sound even better with those extra materials. Try putting pillows in as many corners as possible. RMS refers to the average volume level in an audio signal. By removing the echo and all other noise, fewer resonating frequencies will trigger your compressor/limiter, and your compressed audio will sound much more natural. Before you finish producing your next video, feel free to send me your audio tracks and I'd be happy to mix them. I'm always looking for good sources to practice on. I'll send you a PM.

Have you read the book "solaris" by Stanislaw Lem (If you can still find a copy) one of the most incredible stories I have ever read about a planet that was alive and sentient.. forget that little George Clooney movie.. it was not even close.. The book is scary in a way that amazes.. Thanks for you vid's my friend

  2016. I've been watching your videos since the very beginning and have never once been disappointed with a video. Your voice, as well as the overall use of video and audio to suit, is what has captivated us in the first place. Its great to see your face every once in a while to remind us of who we're listening to and to connect with you a bit, don't change that, but its definitely your intense focus on the subject matter, coupled with the perfect cinematic experience, that has brought me back to your content. I've often found myself sitting for multiple hours binge watching your videos to catch up after life has been busy

  2042. I am subbed to a TON of channels and save for very few, I hit the bell to get all notifications. Astrum is one of the select few that when I see a new video I know I'll be watching it regardless of thumbnail or title, you're up there with the VSauce's and SmarterEveryday's of this platform. If the algorithm suggests videos to me and they have clickbait titles, mention the words 'SHOCKING' or 'Elon Musk said...', or have an absurd/unreal thumbnail you can be sure I won't click and may even ask to not see that channel again. We need channels like Astrum that stay true to themselves and build a large following because they are quality, thoughtful productions. Pandering to the algorithm just makes it worse. I truly value this channel and I understand the pressure to cave in and fall in line, but you've gotten this far without doing so. The pressure should be on us, to tell our friends and colleagues about Astrum, to share your content on other social media platforms and spread the word, and where we can, support you on Patreon. Were I to have kids, 100% they would be Astrum fans. If we cannot assist you in the growth, it is us that have failed. No-one should expect a free lunch, but times are difficult, I hope we can all work together and support the growth and keep this channel the magical place we know and love. Thank you Alex and team, I love escaping into your dreamy worlds of far away realities, and to be clear, I will still be here should you change it up a bit, but humbly I hope it mostly stays the same, it's what brought me here and what keeps me here.

Both my kids loved it and me too! It was so educational. Thank you for creating such great contents. I’ll definitely sign up to the patreon when I can. ❤

  2053. face reveals are so crazy because it never occurred to me that I had no idea what Alex looked like. he was already a fully formed person in my head, but apparently a person with no physical attributes, which was apparently fine

  2091. Thanks for answering my question. Yes, that does make sense. I have a much better idea of how this is possible even though there is not enough gravity to hold a probe in orbit. I'm enjoying the videos. Oh, real quick, I've been watching this channel and have been really enjoying it. TY.
    1
  2092. You're the main reason why I got so interested in astronomy in the first place. I wasn't even 8 years old when I first started watching your videos, and yet they were always so profound, and left me in awe about the universe, constantly wanting to learn more. I can't thank you enough for sparking a life-long interest in astronomy for me.
    1
  2093. Astrum and Crew, I really appreciate the level of effort and information. Been watching for years, relaxing into the night, nursing hangovers in the morning. Really is top notch, no matter one’s mindset. Thank you for that dedication & integrity & continued creativity. May fortune find you. Godspeed in your adventures.
