Astronomers Have Discovered Something Incredible Just Outside Of Our Solar System

Astronomers have discovered something incredible just outside of our solar system. We take a look at this incredible discovery astronomers made.

We managed to accomplish a lot in a relatively short time on Earth. We already sent humans to live in space and to the moon, we developed massive and very sophisticated telescopes and have sent robotics to mars. Many organizations have decided to take a step further, the European Space Agency and NASA have been working very hard to find out if we are completely alone. Today, we have a big number of projects that are made to scan the stars for signs of intelligent life. Despite our efforts, we have yet to make a contact, however this is mainly due to the fact that the universe is massive.

The number of known star systems and planets keeps on expanding. Scientists have many theories about why haven’t we found any intelligent extraterrestrial life or why haven’t they found us. Since we haven’t made any contact yet, one of the theories suggests that there must be something stopping life from communicating with other alien species. The barrier we speak of is also known as the ‘’Great Filter’’. Great Filter is described as an event or a force that stops certain civilization from getting close to interstellar communication or travel.

Thank you for watching!

Thank you to CO.AG for the background music!

You didn't say anything about the discovery outside our solar system

[kencohen]

I think that every narrative which postulates that humans are the touchstone for intelligent life, have never themselves truly touched a stone.

[kerryann]

Oh brilliant! I love videos like this about space. This is definitely going to be my cup of tea!!

[devodavis]

There are exactly two possibilities, they say.
Either we are completely alone in the universe, or we aren't.
One is just as terrifying as the other.

[tonymccarthy]

Thanks for the vid.
Very interesting and factual. Much speculation continues over extra-terrestrial life in our solar system and beyond. I guess one day in the future, we will all know.

Can't wait for your series on "Fully Explained Mysteries".

[debratunnicliff]

I think we aren't the only ones here. There is life out there. I believe that. We just haven't been able to discover each other yet. Just can't communicate, as too far away.

[gabriellashimone]

Brilliant, as always! Thanks much for posting this one! I heard it said that 1/10 of 1% of all planets would be capable of hosting life like ours. Even if there were only 1 billion planets, that would still be 10, 000 capable of life. As Mr. Spock would say, "Fascinating."

[rhyscarter]

Surely earth can't be the only planet in the universe to hold life. We are not alone.

God IS amazing...His Creation is Awe inspiring!!!

[lucifermephistophilies]

It would be scientifically illogical to assume that we are the only molecular life to evolve in the universe

[srkfanever]

As someone who has a huge passion for astronomy. I have always been a big time believer in the paranormal. Most especially in the existence of alien beings. God did make the universe to have all kinds of life in it. As well as all the other universes that I also believe in the existence of.

Space isn't just Space, but Spaces. Time AND Space aren't separate as well, they are one & the same.

Current thinking is Linear, but don't forget DEPTH. Existence isn't 3 dimensional & thinking is not 2.

Welcome to the 4th dimension, where all things are possible. 🙋

[DeadlycheesePeople]

The problem with scientists looking for life is their misguided idea that ALL life in the universe must be similar to life on Earth. Perhaps life on other planets are completely different from ours, evolving to function without light, water, oxygen, and other such things that are staples of life on our planet. We have to learn to think outside of our planet when we discuss these things.

I believe the people who dont realize that we are not alone, and like to believe they are the center of the universe.

We are not alone and the only living intelligent life in this universe

[bitstersouthcarolina]

I love this video because I've always love science and astrology so I have known the vastness space kind of and try to explain it to friends and family and this helps the way I've always tried to explain it would be like saying this one grain of sand is our entire galaxy compared to every other grain of sand on our planet well done

[jacquiwebb]

Of course there's life on other planets. Just the sheer amount of Galaxies in the observable universe makes this highly likely. We'd be awfully arrogant to think that we earthlings are the only "Intelligent" species in the whole of the universe. We are not alone, folks.

[fine]

just wait for James Webb telescope, it will show us lots of things!

[paulcowlishaw]

Another great video unexplained mysteries keep up the good work. But I don't think there's any other life out there.

[nephetula]

The "great filter barrier" theory is absurd, we're simply not employing a proper receiver. The act and means of purposefully blocking any kind of signal would itself indicate that we are not alone.
