   It’s wild to me how obsessed people are with alien life without really understanding anything about space or astronomy and they really think there are intelligent civilisations out there when, in reality, that is an extraordinarily unlikely thing and what actual researchers are looking for and consider as “life on other planets” is the possibility of finding microbes and perhaps, if we are extremely extremely lucky, something like a microscopic organism that may use something like photosynthesis to exist. And if we ever found something like that it would be the greatest discovery of this millenium for people who can actually understand the implications of such a find, while people who believe there may be aliens looking at us could never understand it and would have the nerve to be disappointed.

   Not to mention the completely troubling obsession of people with finding other inhabitable planets while making absolutely no effort to care for the only planet that is and realistically will ever be inhabitable. It’s sickening, to be honest.

   Science fiction has corrupted people’s imaginations to really upsetting degrees. People think they know space when they don’t even begin to grasp the inexplicable unlikeliness of the extraordinary coincidence that we are here at all.

   If people knew how almost entirely unlikely almos definitely impossible their ideas about space and alien life are, they would be a lot less keen to click on videos like these.

   19:59 I went to college with Freeman Dyson’s granddaughter and the way my jaw dropped after knowing her for several years and discovering she was his family when I was in an astronomy class and I brought him up. Even the professor was like “yer kidding!”
   Really wonderful human beings, both her and her grandfather 💯

    Maybe the Interstellar planet only seemed tidally locked because of time distortion. Once they got on the surface they realized that it does have some rotation in that time scale. What they saw further out as a standing wave on a tidally locked planet turned out to be a slowly rotating planet over years with a wave that ever so slightly moved around. Whoops!

    If this woman and Dr Brian Cox had a baby, child’s charisma could resist the power of a Black Hole itself!

    That was really good. Astronomers and Astrophysicists usually frame what they say in a way that would make a snake oil salesman blush. They needn’t do it. She was just straight up to the facts of what we know so far and honest.

    00:50 Alternatively, it could be a grapefruit-sized black hole (which would be very hard to detect with optical telescopes)

    The more we learn the specific configuration necessary for consistently livable planets
    This is shrinking the likelihood
    Less likely to have that star trek future

    Is no one going to talk about how “This Hour has 22 Minutes” is a comedy show in Canada?! I bet some producer there is laughing their way to a new segment
