It’s not about how small the object is. It’s about how fast it’s traveling. For a planet or moon with less gravity you don’t have to go as fast to reach “escape velocity” which is the speed and therefore momentum necessary that you won’t eventually get dragged back in by the gravity of the planet.

@AdamNisbett 2 жыл бұрын

The crazy thing about being on a planet with different gravity is that it’s not like you just lost weight and are lighter. You still have the same mass and so have the same inertial momentum when you are moving. So it’s still takes just as much force to get your body moving, there’s just not as much force pulling you down, so it can actually be difficult to walk as you have less frictional grip on the ground, but still need just as much force to move you forward.

In a nutshell, we can do all the mathematical calculations, run all the computer simulations, use countless illustrations of various types, but the human mind still cannot truly appreciate, fathom nor comprehend the astounding distances, sizes and masses (of objects) that make up the universe. Everything we know, after thousands of years, was learned from observations right here on Earth or from the most infinitesimal distances (comparatively speaking) away from Earth. Even a size comparative illustration of the Earth next to the Sun does little to convey the true enormity of the Sun or its mass, and then consider that the Sun is a "Dwarf Star" that is equally as small as the Earth when compared to many other stars. Take for example, the north star "Polaris". Comparing the size of our sun (Sol) next to "Polaris-A" would be similar to placing a marble (or possibly a golf ball) next to a basketball. Then consider that Polaris is approximately 323 light years away. That means when we see the north star in the sky at night, we're seeing what it looked like on this day 323 years ago! In essence, we're looking back in time! Also, imagine if we could travel at the speed of light (roughly 186,282 miles per second - an impossibility according to physics); it would take us 323 years to reach Polaris! Even if we could travel 10x that fast (Warp factor 10), it would still take over 32 years to reach it! The distances and sizes in "Space" are just incomprehensible! Amazing stuff, no?! 😮 And just for good measure I'll toss this in. Everything in our universe is made up of atoms. Atoms are made up predominantly of empty space. Therefore everything we see and touch is made up mostly of empty space. Because protons, electrons and neutrons revolve infinitely fast around the nuclei of atoms, they merely give us the illusion of mass (or solid objects e.g., a floor, a vase, a mountain, etc.). Let that sink in a while! 😂Peace.

The scale of the universe is absolutely incomprehensible to the human mind. We just didn't evolve in an environment that gives us any perspective on such huge distances. For as long as humans have existed people were asking themselves "Where did we come from", "How was this world created", "What is in the heavens?" And we live in the first few generations in history that can factually answer that we now know at least some of the true answers to those questions.

7:50 To better understand "orbiting" around a planet vs gravity and sticking to it....Imagine if you were on a cliff and jumped. You'll eventually hit the ground due to gravity. Now imagine you make a taller cliff and could jump really far off of it. You almost hit the ground but because you were so high up and jumped off really far ---> this way direction that as you approach the ground you're missing it because the world in a sphere. What you're doing is essentially falling forever. Going around and around the planet. The gravity is pulling you down but you're also so high up that you're falling in parellel to the earth's curved surface. That's "orbiting" If you were to jump any lower and had no sideways velocity then you would get sucked straight back down to earth.

James messed up what can be done in an hour between Earth and Mars. It's not 3 messages between each other, it's 3 one-way messages. It's actually a radio signal. The actual time is a little over 4 minutes per way when the planets are close, and the previously mentioned 20 minutes per way, when furthest apart.

The space between the earth and the moon is big enough that you can fit every planet in our solar system, in that space and still have some room left over.

I think it's both comforting and terrifying to know that our lives don't really mean much in the grand scheme of things. That the struggles and issues in our lives may seem big but really aren't, compared to everything out there.

I find it almost terrifying that someone involved in this life can pretend that it is small or meaningless based on something as simple as size. I mean an oxygen molecule isn't very large but without them you die. H2O molecules are not large but without water you die. Pretending that overall something as simple as size determines value is really weak

@@yrntthelibswipedofftheeart16 I'm not saying that life doesn't have value, it absolutely does, both to the person involved and to the people around them. I'm not a nihilist. What I'm saying is it's a reminder that our problems are fairly insignificant in the grand design.

A still: we are in size several magnitudes closer to the size of the observable universe than we are to the smallest possible distance: a plank length. Meaning we are bigger compared to the smallest (possible) thing, than the biggest (observed) thing is to us.

Our sun will die before we could reach another galaxy. That's why I love Star Trek. Possible warp speed and folding time. Using man made black holes to travel. We live only 80 years on average. So make the best of your life and believe there is an afterlife. Good video.

The average time for a radio signal to reach mars is about 11 minutes, depending on the planets positions from one another…

There's a great book by an LDS author that shows that there's perfect harmony between the prophetic statements concerning the garden of Eden being in Missouri and the Old Testament account concerning the garden of Eden. It's called Canaan, Babylon, and Egypt A Comparative Theological Analysis on Creation sold by Eborn Books.

So about the gravity question. There is a video explaining how a humans physiology might develop differently if they were born on other planets in our solar system. For example, Mars has a lower gravity (3.721 m/s²) than Earth (9.807 m/s²), so a human would more than likey have a "stretched" bone structure compared to what we know on Earth.

When space travel first started, they kept the astronauts in quarantine for 7 days to see if they had any affects from the travel. Perhaps that's what you were thinking of. This is a good example of our perceptions and how they color our ideas of life. The entire Universe is 10 Billion times larger than our largest idea of what it could be... not what we THINK it is.

2:30 It takes roughly 2-3 days to go to the moon and 2-3 days to come back. Idk how long astronauts ever stayed on the moon, but it's probably something like a day max 🤔. So basically a week to go and come back 🤷‍♂️.
