Big thanks to INTO THE AM clothing for partnering with me on this video! Support us by going to https://intotheam.com/letsfindout to get a 10% discount on some really cool, really soft shirts and more. Tonight we're in the Universe Sandbox, a physics simulator of cosmic phenomena. We start with some tutorials, then progress through terraforming, extinction-level impacts like the dinosaur extinguishing Chicxulub Asteroid, and we find out what life around hyper giant stars a million times the size of the sun would be like. 0:00 Intro to the Universe Sandbox and Ad  4:13 Tutorials:...

Incredibly Old Book from 1658 | Science, History, Myth, Folklore | ASMR Soft-spoken show art Incredibly Old Book from 1658 | Science, History, Myth, Folklore | ASMR Soft-spoken

Let's Find Out

It's not quite the original Sumerian Tablets of Gilgamesh, but this is BY FAR my oldest book yet. Tonight's book was published in 1658 by Dr. Thomas Brown, titled, "Pseudodoxia Epidemica: Or Enquiries into Very many Received Tenets, and Commonly Presumed Truths," also known simply as "Pseudodoxia Epidemica" or "Vulgar Errors." It's a work challenging and refuting the "vulgar" or common errors and superstitions of Brown's age. The work was in the vanguard of work-in-progress scientific journalism during the 17th-century scientific revolution and includes evidence of his adherence to the...

The Genesis of the Solar System | ASMR show art The Genesis of the Solar System | ASMR

Let's Find Out

To birth the solar system, you must first invent the universe. - something Carl Sagan probably would've said. The creation of the solar system is a tale of cosmic evolution that spans billions of years. According to the currently accepted Nebular Hypothesis, approximately 4.6 billion years ago, a vast molecular cloud, possibly 65 light-years across and primarily composed of hydrogen, helium, and traces of heavier elements, floated in the dark depths closer to the center of our then-young Milky Way Galaxy. This enormous nebula, was the cradle of our solar system. A significant event, perhaps a...

Gravitational Lensing, The Furthest Galaxies, Light, Electrons, and Life in the Universe | ASMR show art Gravitational Lensing, The Furthest Galaxies, Light, Electrons, and Life in the Universe | ASMR

Let's Find Out

Tonight is a look across the Universe. We begin with the first ever gravitational lensed galaxy found in the 1980's in the galaxy cluster, Abell 370 to another Hubble Deep Field and the size and characteristics of the Universe at the largest scales. Then we go down to the subatomic and see how light interacts with matter and how all electrons are possibly just one single electron moving back and forth through time and space. (that one is seriously fascinating).  Last we discuss the possibility of life in the universe using the parameters outlined by the Drake equation. This uses...

Astronomers sent a Astronomers sent a "CHEERS!" to aliens in 1983 (and other SETI messages to extraterrestrials) | ASMR

Let's Find Out

In 1983, two Japanese scientists, Masaki Morimoto and Hisashi Hirabayashi, pioneers in the field of radioastronomy and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI), got inebriated as they celebrated the Tanabata star festival. They decided to use a radio telescope at Stanford to send a message to one of the brightest stars in the sky, Altair. In the message was information about our planet, our evolution, the human species, and even a high-spirited sign-off, sending both the English word "TOAST" and the Japanese equivalent, "KANPAI" (乾杯). And I love the playful sentiment. 40 years...
