Space, the final frontier. There is still very little that we actually understand about the vast universe that we live in. However, what we do know is that space is very clearly trying its best to kill us all. From deadly radiation to exploding super-stars, the galaxy is dangerous enough to make even the bravest (or craziest) astronauts think twice before deciding to exit our nice, protective atmosphere. Still, the human race is determined to go out and explore the cosmos, so just to make sure we know exactly what we're getting into, here are 25 Space Facts That Will Both Terrify And Amaze You.

And here we are fighting each other over the color of our skin...

[ryanolsenhhs]

When he said Idk what’s scarier not being alone or being alone. I felt that.

[strathmann]

Puts things into perspective. We live a very short life, so make the most of it.

[marin]

I sometimes ask myself why does the world look like it does, why do I look like this, why do we look like this, just mind blowing

[Christianmingle]

This is literally the scariest thing to watch when your high af

[Shlbz]

Its all so crazy. The big bang. Our universe. Black holes. Planets. Stars. Galaxys. Earth. Life. Dinosaurs. Us. Human Consciousness. All of it is mind blowing as crap.

[GenXfrom]

It's just absolutely amazing and miraculous that we're here at all.

[charlieapples]

I’ve always imagined that the universe would eventually collapse back into itself, but instead of vanishing into “nothingness”, it would explode into another Big Bang, effectively “shuffling” or “recycling” the universe.

[abalrog]

What if the Big Bang was the end of everything and we're the aftermath? Expanding forever in the vacuum of space until all energy and chemical reactions end in a pitch black emptiness of equilibrium?

Space will be nerfed in the next update hopefully...💀

Hey Mike, I know it's been five years since you first released this video, and a lot of scientific information has changed. If you find the time, you might want to record an updated version. I took the liberty of helping out with a common misconception regarding how the body behaves in vacuum. Much respect to you and your team because, after finding this channel recently, I'm still trying to unpack all your videos because they are all so fascinating! I can't believe how many you've put out over the years.

12:57 it's an urban legend (spurred on by Hollywood that the body would "pop" (or explode) "like a balloon in a vacuum" This would only be true if we *were* balloons, large, single-chamber bags under pressure. The tightness of our skin prevents this from happening.

"Animal experiments and human accidents have shown that people can likely survive exposure to vacuum conditions for at least a couple of minutes. Not that you would remain conscious long enough to rescue yourself, but if your predicament was accidental, there could be time for fellow crew members to rescue and repressurize you with few ill effects." ~ Scientific American

However, there would be very unpleasant effects to your body in vacuum, although you would only experience about 15 seconds of it before you fell unconscious; for instance, the mammalian body expels gas from the bowels and stomach, and projectile vomiting occurs as well as defecation and urination. Naturally, bubbles of nitrogen can form in the blood.

The eyes would get small hemorrhages, known as petechiae, which would lead to the whites of ones eyes become blood red that looks very similar to having a severe black-eye, and the whites would take some time before the blood (eyeball bruising?) is fully removed, if indeed all of it comes out. The saliva on one's tongue simultaneously boils and freezes and the tongue becomes hugely swollen while this occurs. Apparently, the sense of taste is affected, preventing any ability to taste *any* kind of food, spicy or bland, and it can take some time to recover that ability.

“Everyone loves to imagine themselves flying through the galaxy at the speed of light.”

WHO
WHO DOES THIS

[meghanan]

Does anyone get lost in thoughts when looking at the sky? Like to know what's out beyond the sky....

[kylemaclellan]

Somewhere out there; there’s a planet with life on it; and that life form does not require what we require or may need elements/compounds we’ve never even discovered yet. OR there’s a parallel universe and kangaroos live in Canada instead of 🤦🏻‍♂️

[Necroscopee]

Do you ever click a video because it sounds interesting or funny and then you end up watching other videos that look cool and end up wasting hours if ur time watching. Them 👌🏻👌🏻😅

Y’know, watching this at 2:22am on a Monday before school makes me think about death a lot more. This is kinda....enlightening for my pathetic life.
