SPACE
Our sun looks nothing like this it looks more like this if you've always thought our son was a bright yellow ball of fire you were wrong for starters it's not yellow it's green sort of scientists determine the temperature of a star by the color spectrum it emits each color has its own wavelength and astronomers measure those wavelengths to tell how hot a star is cooler stars appear red the hottest of the stars look blue our sun emits most of its energy at a wavelength that's close to Green but because it also emits other wavelengths all these colors mixed together and your eyes see this vibrant mixture as white that is if you look at the Sun from the International Space Station from here on Earth the Sun looks yellow because our atmosphere is really good at scattering blue light and with all that blue wavelength gone all the other colors combine into yellow if our star was actually yellow it would be about 800 degrees Celsius cooler our Solar System's habitable zone would shrink and Earth would become a frozen lifeless Rock but that's not the only thing you were wrong about the Sun is hot but it's not on fire burning is a chemical reaction of oxygen fuel like most stars out there our sun is a ball of gas mostly made up of hydrogen and helium it doesn't have much oxygen in it instead it works more like a gigantic nuclear reactor constantly fusing hydrogen atoms to create helium inside its core this process releases enormous amounts of energy and that's why the sun is so scorching hot speaking of setting things on fire let me tell you about explosions in space yeah these aren't real a spaceship can't go down in a violent blast because there's no air out there in space no air means no oxygen and no oxygen well as you already know means no fire sorry Star Wars fans it may seem that there are too many stars in the night sky for you to count but actually you can although scientists at Harvard have already done it for you according to the Yale bright star catalog there are 9110 stars that you can see from Earth with the naked eye try to count them all for yourself movies make it look like you need to be an extremely skilled pilot to navigate the asteroid belt but that's not true the asteroid belt isn't some thick obstacle course of death it does have trillions of space rocks that range in size from space dust to a quarter the size of the Moon about 100 000 of these asteroids are over one kilometer wide but they're very spread out the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter is 225 million kilometers across that's one and a half times the distance between Earth and the Sun and this spreads the space rocks millions of kilometers apart it's almost impossible for a spacecraft to collide with one if you were thrown out of the airlock into the vastness of space you wouldn't turn into a popsicle right away that's because to freeze there has to be a heat transfer from space to your body but heat or cold doesn't travel very fast in the vacuum of space your body would freeze but it would take hours to happen and by then you'd be long dead from something else and no you wouldn't explode in space either you would inflate though that's because nitrogen in your bloodstream would gather into bubbles and puff you up to double your size but that's not what's going to kill you it's the lack of oxygen after 15 seconds in space your brain wouldn't get enough oxygen through your blood and you'd lose consciousness after two minutes in space your other organs would start to shut down one by one game over [Music] space seems incredibly cold but it's not in reality space doesn't have a temperature at all temperature is defined by the speed at which particles move and the amount of energy they have in the true vacuum of space there are no particles to move around that's why the vacuum is temperatureless of course outer space isn't a perfect vacuum it still has particles and radiation to produce heat some areas of space are actually really hot like the space around Stars but the further away you get from Stars the more spread out the particles are making those areas of space pretty chilly some dense gas clouds can get as cold as minus 263 degrees Celsius Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun but surprisingly it's not the hottest it is Extreme though during the day the surface temperature reaches 430 degrees and at night it drops to minus 180. but the most hellish planet in the solar system is Venus Mercury doesn't have an atmosphere to retain all that heat from the Sun the venusian atmosphere on the other hand is very thick and it creates a greenhouse effect it's like global warming on steroids and it makes Venus a hot hell with a surface temperature of about 475 degrees our entire solar system isn't just sitting in one spot in our galaxy it's hurtling through space at 220 kilometers per second that's seven times faster than the speed that Earth revolves around the Sun our solar system takes 230 million years to make one orbit around the Milky Way yeah the last time we were in the same location we are now Earth had one supercontinent and the dinosaurs were just starting to roam around planets do not orbit around the sun all the things in our solar system are in balance and even though the sun is the most massive object in our planetary neighborhood other planets are participating in this gravitational tug of war instead of orbiting the Sun planets and moons orbit around a central point between them and our star this point is called the Berry Center for Earth this Berry Center is so close to the sun's core that there's not much of a difference but for Jupiter this point is about 55 000 kilometers away from the center of the Sun so the gas giant and the sun are orbiting each other Earth appears round from space but it's actually an irregularly shaped ellipsoid it bulges at the equator thanks to the centrifugal force caused by our planet's spin as a result Earth is about 43 kilometers wider at the equator than it is at the poles this makes gravity at the Bulge slightly weaker making it easier to launch spaceships from the equatorial regions than from the poles in space no one can hear you scream and that's only true to a point sound needs a medium to travel through and in space molecules are very far apart so the sound Fades away before it can get very far all the cosmic catastrophes supernovas and colliding black holes go quiet before you can hear them but some places in space have a lot of particles for sound to travel through like the hot gas cloud around the black hole at the center of the Perseus Galaxy cluster it has so much gas that you can actually hear the black hole this is what it sounds like thank you you know other planets make noise too if you could hear them do you know what they would sound like well that's a story for another what if.
