Neil deGrasse Tyson - Space Aliens don't give a shit about Humans on earth



The European Space Agency’s Euclid space telescope mission has scouted out the three areas in the sky where it will eventually provide the deepest observations of its mission.

In just one week of observations, with one scan of each region so far, Euclid already spotted 26 million galaxies. The farthest of those are up to 10.5 billion light-years away.

In the coming years, Euclid will pass over these three regions tens of times, capturing many more faraway galaxies, making these fields truly ‘deep’ by the end of the nominal mission in 2030.

The first glimpse of 63 square degrees of the sky, the equivalent area of more than 300 times the full Moon, already gives an impressive preview of the scale of Euclid’s grand cosmic atlas when the mission is complete. This atlas will cover one-third of the entire sky – 14 000 square degrees – in this high-quality detail.

Brian Cox explains the Fermi Paradox and the Great Filter Hypothesis, which could be a key solution to the Fermi Paradox. Brian Cox goes into great detail about the Fermi Paradox, offering explanations for why we have not yet seen evidence of intelligent alien civilizations, even though our galaxy, the Milky Way, contains billions of planets that could support life as we know it. One possible explanation Brian Cox discusses is the Great Filter, a theoretical barrier that could drastically limit the number of civilizations capable of expanding beyond their home planets. This could mean that life itself is rare, intelligent life is even rarer, or that technological civilizations tend to self-destruct before they reach the stage of interstellar communication.

Brian Cox explains how likely it is that intelligent alien life exists in our galaxy, the Milky Way. Brian Cox presents a compelling argument that we might be the only intelligent civilization, or if others exist, they could be so distant that detecting them may never be possible. Brian Cox also explores the fascinating possibility that intelligent alien life might not be biological, but artificial. Additionally, Professor Brian Cox goes into detail about the realistic chances of discovering alien life, likely microbial on Mars, Europa or elsewhere within our lifetime.

Could we accidentally destroy all our satellites? Neil deGrasse Tyson and Chuck Nice explore Kessler Syndrome and the risks of space debris. What would happen if all satellites went down? How much space junk is a problem?

With billionaires planning missions to Mars, researchers at the University of Cambridge potentially discovering life on K2-18b, and NASA’s probe heading to Jupiter’s icy moon Europa, it seems that we are at a crucial moment in the history of the human race. By the time the century is over, we may well be an intergalactic civilization, and we also may have proof that we are not alone in the universe.


But, how did we get here? What technology led to early space exploration like the Apollo Missions? How have our space ships and understanding of interstellar travel improved since then? And what really lies ahead for humankind?
