Why We Don't Explore the Ocean Like Outer Space
Are you ready to dive into the deep blue sea and uncover the real reason we're not ocean explorers extraordinaire? The ocean is hiding in plain sight, and we humans love shiny stuff on land more than underwater gems. The ocean gets super intense, and our human bodies just ain't built to handle that underwater squeeze. And don't forget the technology struggle. The ocean's depths are tricky, and our tech is still figuring out how to handle all those challenges. And last but not least, the ocean is like a VIP club for some exclusive marine creatures.

There is a Star heavier than the Solar System
Hey guys! Today, we’re on a cosmic journey to find the biggest star in the Universe! Our own Sun is not the biggest one out there, but it’s still massive! You could fit 1 million Earths inside it. That means, if you think of the sun like a basketball, Earth would be half the size of a pencil eraser. The Sun makes up 99.9% of all the mass in the entire solar system. Bu the way, did you know that large stars shine brighter and hotter? What about the famous North Star? Funny enough, different stars have had this title over the years, and more will take it in the future! That’s because Earth’s Pole Star changes every 26,000 years. Imagine our planet like a spinning top. The northern pole will shift around in a little circle, pointing at different stars to the true north. The current one is a supergiant 37 times wider and 5 times heavier than our Sun! But it’s still not the biggest star known to humanity… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Black Hole Ate a Star Like Spaghetti, Watch What Astronomers Saw
Hey guys! Do you love cool facts about space? Wanna see one of the most significant astronomical events of all time? Then we go to South America! In the Atacama Desert, Chile, we find the most advanced technology for space observation. Here, the Royal Astronomical Community members watched for six months as a black hole simply absorbed a massive star. By the way, these are the same scientists who proved that in the center of our Milky Way galaxy is a supermassive black hole. And even took a photo of it! Imagine a star the size of our sun-- about 860,000 miles wide. Such stars have enough weight to create a strong gravitational field, holding many planets in their orbit. And now, let’s place a giant black hole next to it. The hole is absolutely black, shaped like a disc, and weighs a billion times more than this star. The force of its gravitational field is incredible. Nothing can leave its gravity force. Objects that can move at the speed of light will still fall into this black abyss. Even light itself cannot escape its boundaries. So what happens to a star as soon as it enters the gravitational field of a black hole? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Earth Once Had Rings and Here's What Happened To Them
Way back in the day, our Earth was a total rockstar with its own set of rings, just like Saturn. But those rings didn't last forever. Nope, they got shattered into smithereens by some cosmic smash-up, probably with another celestial object. So, what's left of those once-glorious rings? Well, some scientists think they might've coalesced into the Moon we know and love today. Yeah, the Moon could be Earth's cosmic rebound from the breakup of its rings! But hey, don't feel too bad for Earth; it's still rocking the whole "life-supporting planet" gig like a champ, rings or no rings. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We Finally Know Why Galaxies Stop Forming Stars
Scientists have been scratching their heads for ages, trying to figure out why some galaxies just stop churning out stars. Well, turns out, it's all about gas—the lifeblood of star formation. Over time, galaxies can lose their gas reserves, either by using it up or having it stripped away by cosmic collisions or supermassive black holes. Once the gas is gone, it's like hitting the brakes on star production. But recent studies suggest that it's not just about running out of gas; it's also about how efficiently a galaxy can hold onto what it's got. So, when it comes to the cosmic game of "to star or not to star," it's all about the gas! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Strong Force Threw a Star Out of Our Galaxy Like a Slingshot
The Milky Way is the galaxy that includes our Solar System and much more... It's the second largest galaxy in the local group. So is there a way for us to know what's going on in the Milky Way? Sometimes objects can enter our Galaxy and escape it super fast. Like in 2017, when astronomers noticed a star streaking out of the Milky Way at a speed roughly four times faster than our Sun orbits.
