A Journey to Our Nearest Stars

The universe is full of all kinds of stars – from tiny red dwarves to majestic blue giants. Some of them dimly twinkle for billions of years while others burn up almost instantly by space standards.

Today we are travelling to some of the most exciting ones, with every new star we come across further and further away from our home planet. This journey of thousands of light years will start near our closest star – the Sun. Together with the Parker probe we will brush its scorching corona and take a peek in its fiery depths. After that we will leave our home system to go around Alpha Centauri and check out some exoplanets located closest to the Earth.

Hello, everyone! Enjoy the viewing!

Watching space videos really helped me in my depression last year. Cause,
1. I realized how small I am in a floating rock, that's also so small compare to the vast universe. So why should I treat my negative thoughts or problems like it's something big, it's not, I shouldn't worry the small stuff anymore, now I am always trying to remember that everytime negative thoughts are present, it helps to reverse it and it calms my mind.
2. I am a stardust, we are all stardust, we are sons and daughters of our sun. It's nice to live life knowing where you came from and where you will eventually end up, back to the earth. So live life, and don't waste any time in worshipping man made gods.
3. I swear, the narrators of cosmo channels have the most relaxing 😌 voices, these are my go-to videos before bed, I cant even finish a single video at night, for I would always fall asleep before the video ends, that's how relaxing their voices are.
Thank you Kosmos! Not only for the awesome space videos, but for the therapy.

Finding out that our Sun was a star when I was a kid was mind blowing. To think there are 100 Billion of them in our galaxy alone is insane.

[JoelElRican]

Ever since I was in middle school, Space has always been interesting to me. Thank you for making these great videos!

[BarbaSimon]

I can no doubt tell that lots of effort was put into this video, so it was something worth dedicating time towards. :D

[markszone]

“From tiny red dwarfs to majestic blue giants”… one sentence into it and I can already see how this is going to go.

[anthrazite]

High quality 75 minutes of astronomy content and we get to watch it for free <3

[mattfindley]

I’ve been around for 4 generations. And wow so much has been revealed from the observable universe.

[angrylemoncc]

Tomorrow will use it as tranquilliser for my sleeping... So calming and enjoyable... ☺️

I love the way he speaks which is crystal clear and super standard BBC style English without any accents whatsoever.

[robertforrester]

Oh! What an unexpected delight . . . . .a You Tube channel with a narrator who has a British accent. How fun and unique!

[curiodyssey]

man I've been with this channel since it's very first video. it's amazing to see just how massive an improvement has been made regarding the quality of the videos.

I remember thinking, ' wow, this is some top-notch production quality for a new channel.'
lol now they might as well call themselves The Discovery Channel
way2go kosmo, and thank you for the consistently amazing content you provide for our enjoyment, not to mention you're doing it all for free. truly a rare thing to come across nowadays on YouTube

[gungadin]

[ds_the_rn]

I hope Beetlegeuse goes in my lifetime. I doubt it will, but dang that’s going to be a show.

The Centauri system reminds me of a square dance in an odd way; stars constantly swinging around each other in a gravitational embrace.

[luvsnowblading]

I dream of space and flying around 💫✨🪐⭐️☄️🌙

[landscapingspecialist]

Larger and brighter than 92% of the stars in our Milky Way is something I have learned new today. And also flat out mind blowing to learn!

[DanielZakariaei]

It's amazing that the closest star to our sun is a triple star system! As well as a binary system too! Just imagine the excitement of future generations not only visiting another star that is not our sun, but seeing Alpha Centauri A and B moving as a binary star system and Proxima Centauri as the third star system.

[Stephen-nutc]

I have been looking for a video like this -- to explore and explain other stars in our relative stellar neighborhood. Excellently done. Informative and entertaining with some slick graphics and animation. I sincerely appreciate all the effort that went into creating this media.

[theoptimisticskeptic]

Another fantastic video from you guys!! I did find it funny at 17:49 you state Proxima Centauri is 4.25 AUs from the Sun rather than 4.25 light-years. That would put the star somewhere in Jupiter's Orbit or even closer since Jupiter averages 5.2 Au's from the Sun!
