How can anyone think we're alone in the universe really.

I've been watching a lot of videos about the universe lately and feeling really small.

I've been watching this closely. Still some questions around wether it's a false detection so due dilligence still being done but if its not then it's an astounding discovery and really upends our understanding of the formation of the early universe. I want to see the spectra results, which should show a lack of heavy elements in these early galaxies, to at least confirm we know something.

I'm currently obsessed with the idea that there could be a load of STUFF out there that's too far away for us to have ever been able to see, like there could be literally anything evne a fucking space cat.

Sometimes I think about buying a telescope, but we have terrible light pollution and I don't want the neighbours to think I am looking in their bedrooms.

This is the video that gave me the most existential dread for some reason.



Mostly the part about how in a few billion years "we" (I know it's not really us as we'll all be dead!) won't be able to see anything outside our local group. And we won't even know anything else was ever there, because we'll never be able to see it. I feel so bad for those billion-year future humans!

Kurzgesagt is always good value. Love the channel. It's also weird to think that it's been less than a hundred years since Edwin Hubble confirmed that the universe was expanding and that we even discovered that there were other galaxies at all. Before that, the indistinct smudges of distant galaxies that we could detect were thought to be nebulae and local. I was already nine years old when the first confirmed exoplanet was discovered. The march of progress is insane, especially when you consider it against the backdrop of cosmic time-scales
