A bit of context: I made a video a few years back called Let's Build a Time Machine with Pickles and Sadness. It was awful. The initial idea had been to try explaining what a gap there currently is between general relativity and quantum mechanics. What came out instead was the video equivalent of soft-serve vanilla ice cream garnished with ostrich droppings. But the thing has been haunting me ever since and I wanted to give it another go. So that's what this was. Why on earth are you so far down in the description anyway? Are you looking for a completely unrelated mystery link? Because that's what you'll find, oh yes you will: • Tolkien explains why t...

You mostly talked about the existential dread of the cosmic scale (and that's great), but as a biotechnology student I would like to mention that the microscopic scale can invoke similiar feelings. The other day, my class were watching paramecium under the microscope and, when done, we washed them down the utility drain. And as I was doing so, I had that thought, that we're sending thousands of those tiny creatures down a fall equivalant to falling off a mountain to us, that if they could feel fear, they would probably be terrified, yet to us it's mundane clean-up that we are annoyed we must do. We don't care. Just as the supermassive black hole doesn't care about us.

One step thing further I like to think about is, we are the collective the colony of these tiny beings. As a collective we do not care if individual cell is gonna die, but whole parts of body, oh boy. Now one day I dream in the distance future as a collective we are going to achieve such feasts from science that maybe not black hole, but like stars and planets will "care". In other words, who knows. Maybe we will amount to something of significance in this galaxy and in a way it's very comforting to believe we will.

Your Saturn story really hit home for me. I was about 10 years old (mid 1960s) and my Dad was a scientist in New Mexico. He had friends who were had some really good telescopes. One very clear, very cold night at high elevation and away from stray light sources his buddies had set up a large telescope. Saturn was out and was tilted so the rings were clear. They got it lined up and I took a look. Earlier I had seen the point of light that was the planet, and now I saw in its glory. It was really there. It had to be huge, just floating out in space. It didn’t care. I was very, very small. It was my first, and strongest inkling of existential dread. I learned more that night that I learned in entire semesters in school.
@RyanM-ke2gu Жыл бұрын
That's awesome to hear. I live in the high desert of NM and bought a 12" dobsonion a couple years ago. This past winter we had a night like you described. Saturn was close to opposition and tilted to show most of the rings. Our friends were visiting w their 8 year old daughter who loves space and science. She's a chatterbox. Got the scope set up w a step stool for her. She was talk talk talking about how excited she was and listing various bits of trivia... As soon as she got her eye in the right position she gasped and went silent. It was magical to watch. We lined it up for her a few times but I was almost worried she wasn't that impressed because she was so muted after seeing it. Except for the sheer amazement on her face :-) Thanks for your story. Gives me a different perspective on her experience.

It's the same reason they sent a teacher up when there were issues with the shuttle but it was cleared for take off & she, & the rest of the crew died shortly thereafter. The same reason why the people who were the original crew to be 1st to go to the moon but, on a test run, the capsule was filled with pure oxygen & an electronic panel sparked & burned them immediately. The same reason Neil Armstrong saw an error light, which he mentioned to the ground crew, a couple times, but who told him it was nothing - yet he had to manually takeover the lunar capsule, otherwise he & Buzz Aldrin would have crashed into the surface because they were going 10 times faster than their equipment was reading.

Normally I'd feel helpless and dreaded but for some reason I just felt calm from start to end. The part of "We're going on an adventure" really resonated with me. Something about an adventure you can't opt out of. one that *everyone* has been and will be going through with us. really feels heartwarming and reassuring.

This was one of my favourite videos of yours, probably because of the educational part but also because the existential crisis was compacted in the last part of the video and it left me wondering about the place I/we have in the universe but at the same time you made me want to come in this journey with you to find out the truth or at least find out some more questions we didn't even have before

I just wanted to show appreciation for your videos, which to me, are like sculptures. Each one, I appreciate as if it's the last, as they both inspire and humble me at the same time. The alloy you use is a perfect combination of intelligence, eloquence and wit. It goes without saying that person might be in turmoil at any given point and exposed to a fistful of scant words some might call a poem at precisely the right time, and be forever changed in a good way. That life is both harsh and worthwhile, and for a time I don't feel so alone here, because someone else clearly gets it. Thank you.

Also I want to thank you, the things you say, the way you match the pieces of your knowledge puzzle makes me feel understood. For years (15) since my first existencial life crysis come on an early childhood i had been thinking about meaning on everything. Thanks for making me wonder about new topics and companied in the familiar ones.

And you manage to express it in a simple enough way for us to understand, even though the medium of language can only express so much compared to the complexity of thoughts. Incredible work exurb1a
