the army air force's has announced that 5 00:00:27,189 --> 00:00:25,119 a flying disc has been found and is now 6 00:00:31,589 --> 00:00:27,199 in the possession of the army if the 7 00:00:34,470 --> 00:00:31,599 game is rigged change the game changer 8 00:00:36,790 --> 00:00:34,480 i occasionally think how quickly 9 00:00:38,150 --> 00:00:36,800 our differences worldwide 10 00:00:40,869 --> 00:00:38,160 would vanish 11 00:00:44,220 --> 00:00:40,879 if we were facing an alien threat from 12 00:00:47,029 --> 00:00:44,230 outside this world 13 00:00:49,830 --> 00:00:47,039 [Applause] 14 00:00:52,470 --> 00:00:49,840 this is fade to black with your host 15 00:00:55,670 --> 00:00:52,480 jimmy church on the game changer radio 16 00:00:59,349 --> 00:00:55,680 network and kgra the global radio 17 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:01,510 i need your help to get to the year 18 00:01:10,469 --> 00:01:08,390 [Music] 19 00:01:13,450 --> 00:01:10,479 you are listening to fate to black with 20 00:01:15,910 --> 00:01:13,460 jimmy judge on the game changer network 21 00:01:17,990 --> 00:01:15,920 [Music] 22 00:01:19,670 --> 00:01:18,000 i'm jimmy church of fade to black and in 23 00:01:22,390 --> 00:01:19,680 this presentation 24 00:01:25,830 --> 00:01:22,400 we're going to discuss our milky way the 25 00:01:28,230 --> 00:01:25,840 universe exoplanets and extraterrestrial 26 00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:28,240 intelligence that may be visiting planet 27 00:01:32,069 --> 00:01:29,600 earth we're going to present a bunch of 28 00:01:34,550 --> 00:01:32,079 numbers from the very small to 29 00:01:35,670 --> 00:01:34,560 absolutely ginormous and take you 30 00:01:37,749 --> 00:01:35,680 through 31 00:01:39,990 --> 00:01:37,759 where we are today 32 00:01:43,350 --> 00:01:40,000 with the amount of knowledge that we 33 00:01:46,550 --> 00:01:43,360 have been able to acquire in just one 34 00:01:48,469 --> 00:01:46,560 lifetime because one lifetime ago at the 35 00:01:50,389 --> 00:01:48,479 turn of the century 36 00:01:52,630 --> 00:01:50,399 in 1900 37 00:01:54,069 --> 00:01:52,640 astronomers and cosmologists around the 38 00:01:56,469 --> 00:01:54,079 world with their telescopes we're 39 00:01:59,030 --> 00:01:56,479 looking up into the night sky at planets 40 00:02:00,870 --> 00:01:59,040 and stars and discovering things and 41 00:02:04,389 --> 00:02:00,880 they were also looking 42 00:02:05,670 --> 00:02:04,399 at these gas clouds that they called 43 00:02:08,550 --> 00:02:05,680 nebuli 44 00:02:11,910 --> 00:02:08,560 and one of the earliest examples of this 45 00:02:13,510 --> 00:02:11,920 uh is here this was photographed by 46 00:02:15,350 --> 00:02:13,520 henry draper 47 00:02:18,150 --> 00:02:15,360 in 1880 48 00:02:20,229 --> 00:02:18,160 and this is of orion and it took 50 49 00:02:22,309 --> 00:02:20,239 minutes for this exposure 50 00:02:24,309 --> 00:02:22,319 and they were seeing these but they 51 00:02:26,309 --> 00:02:24,319 thought that they were all inside of our 52 00:02:27,510 --> 00:02:26,319 milky way that these were just gas 53 00:02:28,229 --> 00:02:27,520 clouds 54 00:02:30,309 --> 00:02:28,239 and 55 00:02:32,150 --> 00:02:30,319 today if you go down into the southern 56 00:02:34,550 --> 00:02:32,160 hemisphere like australia on a clear 57 00:02:36,470 --> 00:02:34,560 night look up into the sky you can see 58 00:02:37,509 --> 00:02:36,480 these pink clouds 59 00:02:39,910 --> 00:02:37,519 up there 60 00:02:41,990 --> 00:02:39,920 uh just floating well 61 00:02:44,630 --> 00:02:42,000 all of that changed 62 00:02:47,750 --> 00:02:44,640 it changed with edwin hubble because in 63 00:02:51,509 --> 00:02:47,760 1919 he arrived at the mount wilson 64 00:02:55,030 --> 00:02:51,519 observatory where they had the brand new 65 00:02:59,750 --> 00:02:55,040 100 inch hooker telescope 66 00:03:00,869 --> 00:02:59,760 and he starts checking out these nebuli 67 00:03:07,270 --> 00:03:00,879 and 68 00:03:08,470 --> 00:03:07,280 of them is that they were far too 69 00:03:12,710 --> 00:03:08,480 distant 70 00:03:14,309 --> 00:03:12,720 to be inside of our milky way and up to 71 00:03:16,790 --> 00:03:14,319 that point 72 00:03:20,229 --> 00:03:16,800 uh the prevailing thought around the 73 00:03:22,390 --> 00:03:20,239 world was that our milky way was the 74 00:03:24,790 --> 00:03:22,400 universe and that's it there was nothing 75 00:03:26,630 --> 00:03:24,800 else outside of it 76 00:03:27,910 --> 00:03:26,640 well this was pretty exciting stuff 77 00:03:29,509 --> 00:03:27,920 except 78 00:03:30,830 --> 00:03:29,519 he was fought 79 00:03:34,309 --> 00:03:30,840 and in 80 00:03:35,990 --> 00:03:34,319 1924 he actually proved that these 81 00:03:37,990 --> 00:03:36,000 nebulae were 82 00:03:40,390 --> 00:03:38,000 much too distant 83 00:03:41,509 --> 00:03:40,400 to be part of the milky way and were in 84 00:03:44,390 --> 00:03:41,519 fact 85 00:03:47,430 --> 00:03:44,400 distant galaxies outside of our own 86 00:03:49,830 --> 00:03:47,440 in this image here this is the first 87 00:03:53,030 --> 00:03:49,840 what is thought to be the first image 88 00:03:55,670 --> 00:03:53,040 of andromeda and you can even see 89 00:03:58,070 --> 00:03:55,680 hubble's handwriting on the negative as 90 00:04:01,509 --> 00:03:58,080 he is calculating movement 91 00:04:04,789 --> 00:04:01,519 and distance this was incredible the new 92 00:04:07,429 --> 00:04:04,799 york times covered this in 1924 but 93 00:04:10,390 --> 00:04:07,439 hubble's results for andromeda were not 94 00:04:13,990 --> 00:04:10,400 formally published in a peer-reviewed uh 95 00:04:15,509 --> 00:04:14,000 scientific journal until 1929 96 00:04:16,390 --> 00:04:15,519 now 97 00:04:17,189 --> 00:04:16,400 over 98 00:04:19,830 --> 00:04:17,199 the 99 00:04:21,349 --> 00:04:19,840 next couple of decades 100 00:04:24,310 --> 00:04:21,359 they were counting the stars in the 101 00:04:27,909 --> 00:04:24,320 milky way they were mapping out our 102 00:04:30,950 --> 00:04:27,919 milky way they were cataloging galaxies 103 00:04:32,710 --> 00:04:30,960 now and counting galaxies and things 104 00:04:36,550 --> 00:04:32,720 were pretty exciting 105 00:04:40,469 --> 00:04:36,560 the milky way as it is presented here 106 00:04:42,790 --> 00:04:40,479 is the latest star count and shape of 107 00:04:45,350 --> 00:04:42,800 what we think our milky way actually is 108 00:04:47,670 --> 00:04:45,360 of course we haven't uh 109 00:04:49,510 --> 00:04:47,680 got gotten a satellite 110 00:04:51,430 --> 00:04:49,520 out outside of our milky way to 111 00:04:53,749 --> 00:04:51,440 photograph it but this is the latest 112 00:04:55,430 --> 00:04:53,759 computer generated model 113 00:04:59,430 --> 00:04:55,440 and here 114 00:05:01,749 --> 00:04:59,440 is where things get crazy because 115 00:05:02,710 --> 00:05:01,759 one lifetime ago it was just planet 116 00:05:05,270 --> 00:05:02,720 earth 117 00:05:07,510 --> 00:05:05,280 one lifetime ago it was just the milky 118 00:05:08,469 --> 00:05:07,520 way that there wasn't anything outside 119 00:05:09,830 --> 00:05:08,479 of it 120 00:05:12,150 --> 00:05:09,840 today 121 00:05:14,310 --> 00:05:12,160 it's much different and the numbers have 122 00:05:18,230 --> 00:05:14,320 gotten ginormous 123 00:05:19,230 --> 00:05:18,240 our milky way with the latest count 124 00:05:22,310 --> 00:05:19,240 is 125 00:05:24,870 --> 00:05:22,320 400 billion stars 126 00:05:29,189 --> 00:05:24,880 400 billion 127 00:05:31,830 --> 00:05:29,199 and with the discovery of exoplanets 128 00:05:34,150 --> 00:05:31,840 things have also changed 129 00:05:37,189 --> 00:05:34,160 we had always thought that earth was 130 00:05:39,990 --> 00:05:37,199 unique and that life here was unique and 131 00:05:41,670 --> 00:05:40,000 life here was singular and that it was a 132 00:05:45,510 --> 00:05:41,680 rare occurrence 133 00:05:46,310 --> 00:05:45,520 anywhere in space in in our solar system 134 00:05:48,390 --> 00:05:46,320 or 135 00:05:50,230 --> 00:05:48,400 in the milky way and beyond that out 136 00:05:52,870 --> 00:05:50,240 into the universe 137 00:05:54,629 --> 00:05:52,880 well the first exoplanet 138 00:05:58,950 --> 00:05:54,639 was discovered 139 00:06:02,469 --> 00:06:00,790 as of may 1st 140 00:06:04,870 --> 00:06:02,479 2019 141 00:06:10,390 --> 00:06:04,880 and we are shooting this video 142 00:06:15,150 --> 00:06:10,400 on may 11 2019 as of may 1st 2019 there 143 00:06:18,189 --> 00:06:15,160 are now 4 058 confirmed exoplanets in 144 00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:18,199 3033 systems with 145 00:06:23,990 --> 00:06:21,120 658 of those systems having more than 146 00:06:25,350 --> 00:06:24,000 one planet there's another 4 000 147 00:06:27,110 --> 00:06:25,360 exoplanets 148 00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:27,120 that have been confirmed that are 149 00:06:31,350 --> 00:06:29,440 waiting to be cataloged and we are 150 00:06:33,830 --> 00:06:31,360 virtually 151 00:06:36,309 --> 00:06:33,840 like per 152 00:06:38,390 --> 00:06:36,319 discovering another exoplanet every 153 00:06:40,070 --> 00:06:38,400 single day if you're an astronomer today 154 00:06:42,070 --> 00:06:40,080 if you're a cosmologist today and you 155 00:06:43,430 --> 00:06:42,080 wake up in the morning and and you want 156 00:06:45,510 --> 00:06:43,440 something to do 157 00:06:47,830 --> 00:06:45,520 you can literally say 158 00:06:50,390 --> 00:06:47,840 to yourself and to your friends hey 159 00:06:52,150 --> 00:06:50,400 let's go find a planet today and you 160 00:06:53,990 --> 00:06:52,160 probably will 161 00:06:56,550 --> 00:06:54,000 that's where it's at 162 00:06:57,830 --> 00:06:56,560 the numbers are now extraordinary and we 163 00:06:59,430 --> 00:06:57,840 find that 164 00:07:01,270 --> 00:06:59,440 every star 165 00:07:03,430 --> 00:07:01,280 that we see 166 00:07:06,629 --> 00:07:03,440 every star that when you go out at night 167 00:07:07,990 --> 00:07:06,639 and look up into the sky every star 168 00:07:12,469 --> 00:07:08,000 has a planet 169 00:07:14,390 --> 00:07:12,479 our milky way has 400 billion stars 170 00:07:17,909 --> 00:07:14,400 latest count 171 00:07:20,710 --> 00:07:17,919 400 billion planets 172 00:07:23,189 --> 00:07:20,720 now think about that for a second 173 00:07:24,550 --> 00:07:23,199 the question of intelligent life being 174 00:07:27,510 --> 00:07:24,560 out there when 175 00:07:31,029 --> 00:07:27,520 we thought that earth was rare and 176 00:07:33,029 --> 00:07:31,039 finding the first exoplanet in 1992 177 00:07:35,670 --> 00:07:33,039 was a huge event 178 00:07:39,189 --> 00:07:35,680 it wasn't until 1995 that the second 179 00:07:41,029 --> 00:07:39,199 exoplanet or the first official catalog 180 00:07:43,270 --> 00:07:41,039 exoplanet happened 181 00:07:46,309 --> 00:07:43,280 over the next couple of years five 182 00:07:49,990 --> 00:07:46,319 exoplanets five years ten exoplanets 183 00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:50,000 okay uh up until the year 2000 right to 184 00:07:57,189 --> 00:07:54,400 today 19 years later were were up uh 185 00:07:58,710 --> 00:07:57,199 just north of 8 000 186 00:08:00,309 --> 00:07:58,720 exoplanets 187 00:08:03,990 --> 00:08:00,319 so think about that 188 00:08:06,390 --> 00:08:04,000 in our own milky way out of those 400 189 00:08:08,469 --> 00:08:06,400 billion planets 190 00:08:11,029 --> 00:08:08,479 latest guesstimates are 191 00:08:12,710 --> 00:08:11,039 that there are between 10 192 00:08:16,390 --> 00:08:12,720 and 50 193 00:08:17,350 --> 00:08:16,400 billion rocky planets like earth with 194 00:08:19,990 --> 00:08:17,360 water 195 00:08:23,189 --> 00:08:20,000 sitting in the goldilocks zone next to a 196 00:08:26,150 --> 00:08:23,199 star where there is liquid water 197 00:08:27,990 --> 00:08:26,160 perfect for life 198 00:08:29,110 --> 00:08:28,000 one lifetime ago 199 00:08:31,430 --> 00:08:29,120 nothing 200 00:08:34,709 --> 00:08:31,440 today we're dealing with that now 201 00:08:36,389 --> 00:08:34,719 everything changed for the second time 202 00:08:39,110 --> 00:08:36,399 when the hubble space telescope was 203 00:08:42,149 --> 00:08:39,120 launched into low earth orbit in 1990 204 00:08:45,350 --> 00:08:42,159 just 60 years after his discovery of 205 00:08:48,949 --> 00:08:45,360 galaxies outside of our own milky way 206 00:08:52,550 --> 00:08:48,959 here is the first image that hubble took 207 00:08:55,910 --> 00:08:52,560 it astounded everybody it's not what we 208 00:08:58,310 --> 00:08:55,920 expected but as you look at this image 209 00:09:00,070 --> 00:08:58,320 everything you see here 210 00:09:02,310 --> 00:09:00,080 is a galaxy 211 00:09:05,590 --> 00:09:02,320 we didn't understand that 212 00:09:09,430 --> 00:09:05,600 every speck of light here is a galaxy 213 00:09:12,630 --> 00:09:09,440 this next image is an enlargement of 214 00:09:15,750 --> 00:09:12,640 hubble's first image and as you can see 215 00:09:17,670 --> 00:09:15,760 everything there is a galaxy 216 00:09:20,070 --> 00:09:17,680 after that the hubble telescope started 217 00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:20,080 presenting us with deep field images the 218 00:09:25,910 --> 00:09:22,800 first deep field image here and then 219 00:09:27,630 --> 00:09:25,920 look at the enlargement from the same 220 00:09:31,910 --> 00:09:27,640 image 221 00:09:33,829 --> 00:09:31,920 everything is a galaxy now going back to 222 00:09:38,630 --> 00:09:33,839 the numbers 223 00:09:42,070 --> 00:09:38,640 of our milky way with 400 billion stars 224 00:09:44,150 --> 00:09:42,080 and 400 billion planets and then you 225 00:09:47,030 --> 00:09:44,160 take a look at this image which is a 226 00:09:49,030 --> 00:09:47,040 shot of our universe 227 00:09:51,110 --> 00:09:49,040 take a good look 228 00:09:53,829 --> 00:09:51,120 everything there 229 00:09:55,910 --> 00:09:53,839 is a galaxy 230 00:09:58,550 --> 00:09:55,920 everything that you are looking at every 231 00:09:59,509 --> 00:09:58,560 tiny speck of light 232 00:10:03,190 --> 00:09:59,519 is 233 00:10:04,470 --> 00:10:03,200 a galaxy with 250 billion stars with 500 234 00:10:06,389 --> 00:10:04,480 billion stars 235 00:10:09,110 --> 00:10:06,399 there are galaxies out there with a 236 00:10:10,150 --> 00:10:09,120 trillion stars and each one of those 237 00:10:12,150 --> 00:10:10,160 stars 238 00:10:15,150 --> 00:10:12,160 has a planet 239 00:10:17,829 --> 00:10:15,160 the numbers now today are so 240 00:10:20,470 --> 00:10:17,839 extraordinarily huge that we almost 241 00:10:23,350 --> 00:10:20,480 can't wrap our mind around it 242 00:10:24,470 --> 00:10:23,360 and as uh the images started coming in 243 00:10:26,790 --> 00:10:24,480 from hubble 244 00:10:28,949 --> 00:10:26,800 and the deep field images were being 245 00:10:32,310 --> 00:10:28,959 analyzed we were able to go look at 246 00:10:33,509 --> 00:10:32,320 these other gaseous nebuli out there 247 00:10:35,509 --> 00:10:33,519 like this 248 00:10:38,550 --> 00:10:35,519 this is just a shot 249 00:10:41,509 --> 00:10:38,560 of the hubble universe blown up here is 250 00:10:43,269 --> 00:10:41,519 another one here's another one and here 251 00:10:45,110 --> 00:10:43,279 is another 252 00:10:47,750 --> 00:10:45,120 when we look at the universe today 253 00:10:49,990 --> 00:10:47,760 especially these two images here 254 00:10:51,990 --> 00:10:50,000 this first image is a redshift image 255 00:10:54,870 --> 00:10:52,000 showing the expansion rate of the 256 00:10:58,310 --> 00:10:54,880 universe and the second image is the 257 00:11:00,949 --> 00:10:58,320 latest 3d model of our known universe 258 00:11:03,190 --> 00:11:00,959 but it's only going out a few hundred 259 00:11:05,190 --> 00:11:03,200 million light years it's not covering 260 00:11:07,269 --> 00:11:05,200 the edges of the universe because we 261 00:11:09,829 --> 00:11:07,279 can't see it the expansion is happening 262 00:11:13,030 --> 00:11:09,839 at such a great speed approaching the 263 00:11:15,670 --> 00:11:13,040 speed of light and beyond that galaxies 264 00:11:17,910 --> 00:11:15,680 now are unseen 265 00:11:22,470 --> 00:11:17,920 and just imagine if you're on the other 266 00:11:25,269 --> 00:11:22,480 side of the the horizon of the universe 267 00:11:27,269 --> 00:11:25,279 you wouldn't see these galaxies coming 268 00:11:29,509 --> 00:11:27,279 at you because they're traveling now at 269 00:11:32,069 --> 00:11:29,519 the speed of light or faster faster than 270 00:11:35,750 --> 00:11:32,079 light travel it's pretty incredible but 271 00:11:39,030 --> 00:11:35,760 that takes us back to our milky way and 272 00:11:43,350 --> 00:11:39,040 where we are today if we are dealing 273 00:11:46,310 --> 00:11:43,360 with 10 to 50 billion rocky planets with 274 00:11:48,470 --> 00:11:46,320 water on them in the goldilocks zone 275 00:11:51,269 --> 00:11:48,480 what that only could suggest is the 276 00:11:52,630 --> 00:11:51,279 amount of life that is just inside of 277 00:11:54,470 --> 00:11:52,640 our milky way 278 00:11:57,030 --> 00:11:54,480 intelligent life 279 00:11:59,110 --> 00:11:57,040 that may be way beyond our own 280 00:12:01,030 --> 00:11:59,120 comprehension 281 00:12:04,069 --> 00:12:01,040 is everywhere 282 00:12:05,829 --> 00:12:04,079 and there isn't a scientist on this 283 00:12:07,990 --> 00:12:05,839 planet there isn't a physicist or a 284 00:12:11,110 --> 00:12:08,000 cosmologist or an astronomer 285 00:12:14,069 --> 00:12:11,120 on this planet today that doesn't think 286 00:12:17,590 --> 00:12:14,079 that intelligent life isn't out there 287 00:12:19,590 --> 00:12:17,600 they know now that it must be everywhere 288 00:12:21,670 --> 00:12:19,600 earth is only four and a half billion 289 00:12:23,350 --> 00:12:21,680 years old our son 290 00:12:24,470 --> 00:12:23,360 and we know 291 00:12:26,629 --> 00:12:24,480 that 292 00:12:29,670 --> 00:12:26,639 it took four and a half billion years 293 00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:29,680 from the creation of our planet for us 294 00:12:35,030 --> 00:12:32,480 to be here today where we are 295 00:12:37,030 --> 00:12:35,040 most of our progress has happened in the 296 00:12:39,190 --> 00:12:37,040 last hundred years 297 00:12:42,069 --> 00:12:39,200 in 1900 298 00:12:44,389 --> 00:12:42,079 we had gas lamps in the streets we were 299 00:12:46,629 --> 00:12:44,399 barely getting electricity 300 00:12:50,150 --> 00:12:46,639 into our cities 301 00:12:52,310 --> 00:12:50,160 telephones and and technology and cars 302 00:12:55,269 --> 00:12:52,320 hadn't happened yet all of that has 303 00:12:57,590 --> 00:12:55,279 happened within the last lifetime 304 00:12:58,629 --> 00:12:57,600 you need to think about that 305 00:13:01,030 --> 00:12:58,639 so 306 00:13:03,030 --> 00:13:01,040 with intelligent life out there if it 307 00:13:04,710 --> 00:13:03,040 got a jump on us 308 00:13:08,550 --> 00:13:04,720 by a hundred years 309 00:13:11,670 --> 00:13:08,560 by 10 000 years by a million years where 310 00:13:13,350 --> 00:13:11,680 are they now today well let's take a 311 00:13:14,550 --> 00:13:13,360 look at that 312 00:13:21,829 --> 00:13:14,560 here 313 00:13:24,470 --> 00:13:21,839 up uh satellites and and probes uh to go 314 00:13:28,470 --> 00:13:24,480 to distant planets in the moon 315 00:13:31,990 --> 00:13:28,480 to go check out mars in venus the sun 316 00:13:34,389 --> 00:13:32,000 voyager uh voyager one and two which are 317 00:13:37,190 --> 00:13:34,399 our first interstellar 318 00:13:39,190 --> 00:13:37,200 craft to leave our solar system well 319 00:13:40,870 --> 00:13:39,200 this just happened 320 00:13:43,829 --> 00:13:40,880 this is new 321 00:13:47,190 --> 00:13:43,839 but it's our way of figuring out what's 322 00:13:50,230 --> 00:13:47,200 going on in our solar system right 323 00:13:52,230 --> 00:13:50,240 well intelligent life out there 324 00:13:53,590 --> 00:13:52,240 has already done that 325 00:13:56,230 --> 00:13:53,600 a lot 326 00:13:59,189 --> 00:13:56,240 and it's not just one intelligent 327 00:14:02,310 --> 00:13:59,199 species out there from one planet 328 00:14:03,990 --> 00:14:02,320 there are billions of planets out there 329 00:14:06,629 --> 00:14:04,000 there must be 330 00:14:09,189 --> 00:14:06,639 tens of thousands if not millions of 331 00:14:09,990 --> 00:14:09,199 civilizations right here in our milky 332 00:14:13,509 --> 00:14:10,000 way 333 00:14:14,829 --> 00:14:13,519 out there discovering planets just like 334 00:14:17,990 --> 00:14:14,839 we are 335 00:14:20,310 --> 00:14:18,000 today think about that 336 00:14:22,949 --> 00:14:20,320 our discovery of exoplanets is one of 337 00:14:25,189 --> 00:14:22,959 the most exciting things that anybody 338 00:14:26,949 --> 00:14:25,199 can do today in the field of astronomy 339 00:14:30,310 --> 00:14:26,959 and cosmology and if you're an 340 00:14:32,790 --> 00:14:30,320 astrophysicist it's this study today 341 00:14:35,110 --> 00:14:32,800 that is propelling and moving everything 342 00:14:38,389 --> 00:14:35,120 forward at such a fast rate 343 00:14:39,670 --> 00:14:38,399 now the other aspects to this 344 00:14:41,189 --> 00:14:39,680 is that 345 00:14:43,189 --> 00:14:41,199 if we 346 00:14:47,110 --> 00:14:43,199 are sending out probes and building 347 00:14:48,230 --> 00:14:47,120 satellites and spacex and and and blue 348 00:14:50,310 --> 00:14:48,240 origin 349 00:14:52,550 --> 00:14:50,320 today nasa 350 00:14:53,670 --> 00:14:52,560 if that's what we are doing et is doing 351 00:14:54,710 --> 00:14:53,680 it too 352 00:14:56,310 --> 00:14:54,720 and 353 00:14:57,509 --> 00:14:56,320 there are 354 00:15:00,470 --> 00:14:57,519 hundreds 355 00:15:02,470 --> 00:15:00,480 of sightings every single day on this 356 00:15:03,829 --> 00:15:02,480 planet of things that we can't explain 357 00:15:06,069 --> 00:15:03,839 out there in the sky you go out there 358 00:15:08,230 --> 00:15:06,079 with night vision goggles look up you're 359 00:15:10,710 --> 00:15:08,240 gonna see something strange it's nearly 360 00:15:11,590 --> 00:15:10,720 a guarantee it's a given 361 00:15:15,110 --> 00:15:11,600 so 362 00:15:16,389 --> 00:15:15,120 what could all of these crafts be 363 00:15:19,110 --> 00:15:16,399 well 364 00:15:21,670 --> 00:15:19,120 this beautiful blue planet of ours is 365 00:15:24,389 --> 00:15:21,680 something worth checking out 366 00:15:27,430 --> 00:15:24,399 right of course it is 367 00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:27,440 but the other part now 368 00:15:31,350 --> 00:15:29,920 is that we always thought that earth was 369 00:15:32,790 --> 00:15:31,360 unique 370 00:15:33,990 --> 00:15:32,800 as it turns out 371 00:15:37,829 --> 00:15:34,000 it's not 372 00:15:41,189 --> 00:15:37,839 and if we have 10 to 50 billion 373 00:15:44,069 --> 00:15:41,199 earth-like rocky planets in our milky 374 00:15:46,790 --> 00:15:44,079 way how many of those 375 00:15:50,470 --> 00:15:46,800 are more fun more cool 376 00:15:51,990 --> 00:15:50,480 more spectacular than planet earth 377 00:15:54,470 --> 00:15:52,000 think about that 378 00:15:56,710 --> 00:15:54,480 maybe those are worth hanging out at 379 00:15:59,030 --> 00:15:56,720 before earth 380 00:16:01,990 --> 00:15:59,040 we don't really have a way to 381 00:16:04,069 --> 00:16:02,000 uh get into interstellar travel to go 382 00:16:06,150 --> 00:16:04,079 out there and visit the cosmos we don't 383 00:16:07,110 --> 00:16:06,160 have that ability today 384 00:16:08,470 --> 00:16:07,120 so 385 00:16:11,430 --> 00:16:08,480 with e.t 386 00:16:13,749 --> 00:16:11,440 there's probably more interest 387 00:16:17,110 --> 00:16:13,759 in those other planets out there that 388 00:16:18,870 --> 00:16:17,120 can trade that can communicate 389 00:16:21,590 --> 00:16:18,880 that can do all of those things that we 390 00:16:24,470 --> 00:16:21,600 can't do here yet 391 00:16:26,710 --> 00:16:24,480 but they're here checking us out just 392 00:16:28,790 --> 00:16:26,720 like we are out there discovering 393 00:16:31,829 --> 00:16:28,800 exoplanets 394 00:16:35,189 --> 00:16:31,839 the amount of uh stars 395 00:16:36,949 --> 00:16:35,199 just in our milky way putting planets 396 00:16:39,749 --> 00:16:36,959 aside 397 00:16:41,990 --> 00:16:39,759 the number is so huge that we don't have 398 00:16:43,350 --> 00:16:42,000 the space and the manpower to catalog 399 00:16:45,269 --> 00:16:43,360 everything 400 00:16:49,189 --> 00:16:45,279 and then we're going to start naming 401 00:16:51,509 --> 00:16:49,199 exoplanets we're only at 4 000 remaining 402 00:16:52,710 --> 00:16:51,519 to be catalogued today that's a small 403 00:16:56,069 --> 00:16:52,720 number 404 00:16:57,990 --> 00:16:56,079 imagine trying to catalog 50 billion 405 00:17:00,310 --> 00:16:58,000 in our milky way and then getting 406 00:17:01,590 --> 00:17:00,320 outside of our milky way and starting to 407 00:17:04,390 --> 00:17:01,600 catalog 408 00:17:06,949 --> 00:17:04,400 galaxies forget about the planets and 409 00:17:10,870 --> 00:17:06,959 the stars inside of those galaxies 410 00:17:14,150 --> 00:17:10,880 you've got 400 500 billion galaxies to 411 00:17:15,990 --> 00:17:14,160 catalog the number is so huge i'll give 412 00:17:17,510 --> 00:17:16,000 you this example 413 00:17:19,110 --> 00:17:17,520 you could take 414 00:17:22,230 --> 00:17:19,120 this guitar pick 415 00:17:26,549 --> 00:17:22,240 and 416 00:17:28,230 --> 00:17:26,559 go out in your backyard tonight tonight 417 00:17:30,470 --> 00:17:28,240 take a guitar pick 418 00:17:32,390 --> 00:17:30,480 hold it out at arm's length just like 419 00:17:34,390 --> 00:17:32,400 this any black 420 00:17:36,870 --> 00:17:34,400 spot in the sky in between a couple of 421 00:17:37,909 --> 00:17:36,880 stars put the guitar pick up there just 422 00:17:40,510 --> 00:17:37,919 like that 423 00:17:42,230 --> 00:17:40,520 it is now covering 424 00:17:46,230 --> 00:17:42,240 150 425 00:17:48,230 --> 00:17:46,240 000 galaxies and you can do that 426 00:17:50,950 --> 00:17:48,240 anywhere 427 00:17:53,430 --> 00:17:50,960 that's how many galaxies are out there 428 00:17:55,350 --> 00:17:53,440 when you see 429 00:17:58,950 --> 00:17:55,360 something like star trek 430 00:18:01,110 --> 00:17:58,960 orville i love orville the new show 431 00:18:03,350 --> 00:18:01,120 and they're out 432 00:18:04,470 --> 00:18:03,360 and they pull up to a planet 433 00:18:07,270 --> 00:18:04,480 and they go 434 00:18:09,909 --> 00:18:07,280 what is that well it's an uncataloged 435 00:18:12,390 --> 00:18:09,919 planet it's undiscovered 436 00:18:14,230 --> 00:18:12,400 and i know a lot of you probably think 437 00:18:17,029 --> 00:18:14,240 wow that's strange how would they not 438 00:18:19,990 --> 00:18:17,039 know of course they wouldn't know 439 00:18:21,990 --> 00:18:20,000 everything is undiscovered 440 00:18:23,029 --> 00:18:22,000 we're going to be discovering and naming 441 00:18:26,390 --> 00:18:23,039 everything 442 00:18:29,270 --> 00:18:26,400 for the rest of all time 443 00:18:31,990 --> 00:18:29,280 that's how big these numbers are 444 00:18:34,710 --> 00:18:32,000 so when we look at our planet and are we 445 00:18:37,029 --> 00:18:34,720 being visited well we've got to look at 446 00:18:39,669 --> 00:18:37,039 things two ways now 447 00:18:42,070 --> 00:18:39,679 i think that the question about us being 448 00:18:44,310 --> 00:18:42,080 alone in the universe has firmly been 449 00:18:46,789 --> 00:18:44,320 answered we now know about how many 450 00:18:49,190 --> 00:18:46,799 planets are in our milky way and 451 00:18:51,270 --> 00:18:49,200 discovering exoplanets every single day 452 00:18:53,669 --> 00:18:51,280 here's an image of the first 453 00:18:56,470 --> 00:18:53,679 photographed exoplanet here's another 454 00:18:57,990 --> 00:18:56,480 one called beta pictoris that was taken 455 00:18:59,669 --> 00:18:58,000 a few years later 456 00:19:00,549 --> 00:18:59,679 this is what we are doing every single 457 00:19:02,230 --> 00:19:00,559 day 458 00:19:05,110 --> 00:19:02,240 now 459 00:19:06,310 --> 00:19:05,120 we have two ways to look at our planet 460 00:19:08,230 --> 00:19:06,320 now 461 00:19:11,750 --> 00:19:08,240 two ways 462 00:19:13,110 --> 00:19:11,760 the first one 463 00:19:15,029 --> 00:19:13,120 is if 464 00:19:17,669 --> 00:19:15,039 there is life out there 465 00:19:20,150 --> 00:19:17,679 there is a reason to keep this place 466 00:19:21,190 --> 00:19:20,160 beautiful there's a reason 467 00:19:25,669 --> 00:19:21,200 to 468 00:19:28,870 --> 00:19:25,679 make sure that this planet is beautiful 469 00:19:30,710 --> 00:19:28,880 for our children and our grandchildren 470 00:19:33,510 --> 00:19:30,720 and the generations to come there's a 471 00:19:36,710 --> 00:19:33,520 reason to live for there's a moment 472 00:19:39,669 --> 00:19:36,720 where we are going to have real contact 473 00:19:42,390 --> 00:19:39,679 real communication and maybe even 474 00:19:44,549 --> 00:19:42,400 interstellar trade with our neighbors 475 00:19:46,950 --> 00:19:44,559 here i mean i don't know about you but i 476 00:19:48,630 --> 00:19:46,960 want a t-shirt from zeta reticuli you 477 00:19:50,870 --> 00:19:48,640 know i would really like to get some 478 00:19:55,350 --> 00:19:50,880 boots from orion that would be really 479 00:19:58,230 --> 00:19:55,360 cool a gemstones and and spices and and 480 00:20:00,950 --> 00:19:58,240 food and just things 481 00:20:02,710 --> 00:20:00,960 that's something to live for right 482 00:20:04,710 --> 00:20:02,720 the second 483 00:20:08,549 --> 00:20:04,720 view to have 484 00:20:11,990 --> 00:20:08,559 would be if we are truly alone 485 00:20:15,350 --> 00:20:12,000 if we are so unique in the universe if 486 00:20:17,350 --> 00:20:15,360 life is so rare that the only life is 487 00:20:18,789 --> 00:20:17,360 right here on earth 488 00:20:21,750 --> 00:20:18,799 then there's nothing to live for is 489 00:20:24,150 --> 00:20:21,760 there let's just party let's just burn 490 00:20:26,230 --> 00:20:24,160 this sucker down we're all alone 491 00:20:27,909 --> 00:20:26,240 there's nothing to do 492 00:20:29,510 --> 00:20:27,919 right let's just burn up all of our 493 00:20:31,669 --> 00:20:29,520 resources and 494 00:20:34,070 --> 00:20:31,679 and shut this thing down and maybe 495 00:20:36,470 --> 00:20:34,080 another life form will be created in 496 00:20:38,390 --> 00:20:36,480 another million years and they can cycle 497 00:20:39,669 --> 00:20:38,400 through the same thing again 498 00:20:41,750 --> 00:20:39,679 or 499 00:20:44,310 --> 00:20:41,760 we can make this place beautiful 500 00:20:47,110 --> 00:20:44,320 beautiful for the generations to come 501 00:20:49,990 --> 00:20:47,120 for the moment when we have that real 502 00:20:53,190 --> 00:20:50,000 conversation with our friends here in 503 00:20:56,149 --> 00:20:53,200 the milky way those are the numbers 504 00:20:58,149 -->
