K2-141b Discovered: A Hellish Exoplanet
K2-141b: a hellish planet! Before we found the first exoplanets — planets orbiting other stars — it seemed reasonable to suppose that other planetary systems looked like ours: small, rocky planets close to a Sun-like star, a big Jupiter and a few other gas giants farther out. But after a quarter-century of discovery revealing thousands of exoplanets in our galaxy, things look very different. In a word, we (our solar system) are “weird” — at least among the planetary systems found so far. Just how weird is still a matter of debate. And weirdness is relative. In fact, we found: Planets made of water, planets with a diamond core; Planets too hot, planets too cold; Planets that shouldn't exist; Earth-like planets. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1? Business Enquiries: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Since the discovery of 51 Pegasi b, the first ever-known planet orbiting around a star similar to our Sun, we learned to find exoplanets by combining different techniques and instruments.  We have been amazed by the variety of exoplanets that exist, and we are learning that every exoplanet is unique. This appears to be a new challenge for astronomers, like the one they had when they first started studying the different type of stars. The problem's that it will take time to have some good theories of planetary formations because planets are way more numerous than stars: astronomers estimate that every star in our galaxy has (almost) a planet orbiting around it.  This means that they are literally everywhere in the universe! They are thousand of billions! Can you imagine such a huge number? We found even many planetary systems, like our solar system, in which some planets orbit a star similar to our Sun.  Today we want to talk about one of the most bizarre planets we discovered: K2-141b. This is a planet where it rains rock. We know what you are thinking: how is it possible it rains rock? Well, later in the video you will have the answer to this question.  Ladies and Gentlemen, fasten your seatbelt and follow us on this journey through the universe: we will bring you far away, around the K2-141 star, to introduce to you the planet K2-141b. Are you ready? Many ancient philosophers, as Epicuro and Democrito, guessed that other worlds might exist, basing their thoughts on a philosophical point of view rather than physical demonstrations. Much later, in the sixteenth century, the Italian philosopher Giordano Bruno was the first to assert that:  “There are therefore countless suns and an infinite number of worlds orbiting around them, like the seven worlds orbiting our Sun”.  (Giordano Bruno, On the Infinite Universe and Worlds, 1584) About 2300 years after Epicuro's ideas, and 400 years after Giordano Bruno, scientists Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz found the first extra-solar planet: 51 Pegasi b. For this discovery, they were awarded The Nobel Prize in Physics in 2019. Since then, the hunt for extra-solar planets started, and astronomers all around the world became planet hunters. Although we have still a long way to go before we get a well-built statistic for exoplanets, we can study each of them, understanding how different they are. Until now, there are 4301 confirmed exoplanets and 3192 planetary systems. One of them is K2-141b, the hellish planet.  In these images, you can see that, if there's something that resembles hell, this is certainly the case of K2-141b. On his surface, the temperature reaches extreme peaks, and everything is somehow reddish.  But...who found it? And how did he reach hell?  It was detected in 2018 by Luca Malavolta, from the Physics and Astronomy department of the University of Padua, using the so-called “transit method”. This method was our...highway to hell! The transit method measures the light curve of distant stars for periodic dips in brightness, that are the result of exoplanets passing in front of the star relative to the observer. How's K2-141b orbit? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If You happen to see any content that is yours, and we didn't give credit in the right manner please let us know at Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com and we will correct it immediately" "Some of our visual content is under an Attribution-ShareAlike license.

6 Galaxies Trapped In The Web Of An Ancient Supermassive Black Hole
A very giant web of a giant supermassive black hole that has been feeding on the gas of six galaxies has been observed by astronomers using ESO’s Very large telescope. We believe these galaxies to have been trapped in the spider like web of this giant super-massive black hole. The finding helps to better understand how supermassive black holes, one of which exists at the centre of our Milky Way, formed and grew to their enormous sizes so quickly. It also supports the theory that black holes can grow rapidly within large, web-like structures which contain plenty of gas to fuel them, according to the astronomers.So how is it possible? IS it because of Dark matter! Or any other phenomenon!! Let’s find out.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1? Business Enquiries: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Black holes are some of the strangest and most fascinating objects in outer space. They’re extremely dense, with such strong gravitational attraction that even light cannot escape their grasp if it comes near enough. Albert Einstein first predicted the existence of black holes in 1916, with his general theory of relativity. The term “black hole” was coined many years later in 1967 by American astronomer John Wheeler. After decades of black holes being known only as theoretical objects, the first physical black hole ever discovered was spotted in 1971. Since then, black holes have been a centre of attraction and research for many astronomers. A black hole is formed when the centre of a very massive star collapses in upon itself. This collapse also causes a supernova, or an exploding star, that blasts part of the star into space. Have you ever wondered if light can’t escape a black hole, how can we see black holes? Well, we don’t see a black hole, we observe the presence of a black hole by its effect on its surrounding. They are very hard to detect in our own galaxy. Then, In 2019 the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration released the first image ever recorded of a black hole. The EHT saw the black hole in the centre of galaxy M87 while the telescope was examining the event horizon, or the area past which nothing can escape from a black hole. The image maps the sudden loss of photons (particles of light). It also opens up a whole new area of research in black holes, now that astronomers know what a black hole looks like. Black holes are strange and hard to study. There are a good deal of strange once that exist in our universe and have been observed by the scientists. We already have made a video on these strangest black holes of the universe and also about the first photograph of a black hole. We will leave their link in the description below.  Supermassive black holes are one of the most challenging astronomical objects in the universe. Not much is known about them except that they are very huge and are present at the centre of every galaxy. Supermassive black holes are extreme systems, and, to date, we have had no good explanation for their existence. Scientist know little about them. Their formation and especially their formation in the early universe is a very intriguing question that scientists look to answer. “Our work has placed an important piece in the largely incomplete puzzle that is the formation and growth of such extreme, yet relatively abundant, objects so quickly after the Big Bang,” said Roberto Gilli, and astronomer at INAF in Bologna. It is thought the first black holes, believed to have formed from the collapse of the first stars, must have grown very fast to reach a billion solar masses within the first 900 million years of the Universe’s life. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If You happen to see any content that is yours, and we didn't give credit in the right manner please let us know at Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com and we will correct it immediately" "Some of our visual content is under an Attribution-ShareAlike license.

Liked on YouTube: What Is Our Place In The Milky Way?


What Is Our Place In The Milky Way?
What is our place in the Milky Way? And our place in the Universe? In ancient times, many people had the idea our planet Earth to be at the centre of the Universe, as stated by Aristotle and Ptolomeus in their ptolemaic – aristotelic concept of universe: according to this model, Earth is at the center of the universe and all the other celestial bodies orbit around it. Today lots of people think the same. But is this really the case? To answer this question, let’s try to to a travel in the universe, through space and time; we will start our travel from our planet to reach, in the end, the extreme boundaries of the universe. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1? Business Enquiries: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During the 1600s, Galileo Galilei, the famous Italian astronomer, was one of the first people, during modern age, to have some doubts about the geocentric model of universe: thanks to telescopic observations, he was able to demonstrate our Earth is not at the rotation centre of planets and the Sun, but really it is the Sun itself. Moreover, observing planet Jupiter, he discovered that the giant planet is the rotation center for its moons. So, Galileo became aware that the center of the Solar System was the Sun, not the Earth! The Solar System is made by a star, the Sun, eight planets and different types of minor celestial bodies, like comets, asteroids and dwarf planets. Well, the Earth isn’t at the center of the Solar System, maybe is the closest planet to our Sun? No it isn’t, because it is only the third planet from the Sun: the closest planet to our star is Mercury, followed by Venus and then Earth. The Earth moves around the Sun, our star, just like all the other celestial bodies in the Solar System do: this implies that the Sun, and not our planet, is the center of rotation of the Solar System! The Earth takes a year, 365 days, to travel its orbit, and its average distance from the Sun is 150 million kilometers, which is the measure unit of distances in the Solar System known as the astronomical unit and abbreviated AU. Why do we talk about average distance? Because the orbit traveled by the Earth around the Sun is not circular but elliptical, and this means that there will be an aphelion (i.e. the point of the Earth's orbit farthest from the Sun, just over 1 AU away from it) and a perihelion (the point of Earth's orbit closest to the Sun, just under 1 AU). An alternative way to define the astronomical unit passes through the light time, in particular we can say that the average distance Earth - Sun is equal to about 8 light minutes: this means that sunlight takes 8 minutes to arrive on Earth, so that the sunlight we see at a certain moment is not that of that moment but it is the sunlight which left from the Sun 8 minutes earlier! In other words: if the sun went out for example at 2.30 pm, we would only notice it at 2.38 pm! Or again: if you could travel aboard the Star Wars Millennium Falcon it would take you only 8 minutes to travel from the Sun to the Earth (when in reality it takes a few years). To give a more concrete idea of the dimensions of the Solar System: if the Sun were a sphere with a diameter of 14 cm, Pluto would be at 700 m from the Sun, like seven regular soccer fields! The nearest celestial body to Earth is the Moon, our satellite: to reach it you should take three days off! It’s the same time taken by Apollo astronauts to cover the distance of nearly 400 thousand kilometers that separate Moon and Earth. But if you had Star Trek Enterprise, and travel at maximum curvature, you would only take less than 2 seconds to reach the Moon! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If You happen to see any content that is yours, and we didn't give credit in the right manner please let us know at Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com and we will correct it immediately" "Some of our visual content is under an Attribution-ShareAlike license.

Why Did The Russians Lose The Moon?
After the launch of Sputnik in 1957 - which had a devastating impact on the morale of the West - the United States collected what seemed to be the final defeat on April 12, 1961, when Yuri Gagarin (1934-1968) aboard Vostok 1 flew around the Earth for the first time. It was a huge media success for Soviet technology and America was annihilated. The result was a burst of pride for the nation, even if, according to the experts, the games were already done: the Soviet Union would also win the race to the Moon! Which then, as we all know, did not happen. And at this point the question can only be: why? Why did the Russians lose the Moon? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1? Business Enquiries: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The reason why the Russians, starting from an advantageous situation, lost almost without fighting the race to the Moon is an argument long debated by historians. In the United States, the problem has been dismissed for decades with a very simplistic explanation: the Soviets could not compete with the superior American technology and had no hope even at the start. In reality, it seems that the reasons were multiple, at least five of great importance, and that among them technological inferiority is only marginally included. The first reason was the total lack of organization. The idea that in the '60s the West had of the Soviet space program was that of a giant, perfectly oiled machine, all devoted to the success of the country and the Party. And instead it happened quite the opposite: the Soviet Union didn't even have a real "space program", no multi-year forecasts, allocation of funds or political direction. Projects were approved from time to time, unrelated to each other and according to the media opportunity of the moment, often without even verifying their economic coverage; under these conditions, success depended exclusively on the talent and merit of some engineers. Very often, the administrative directors were bureaucrats without the slightest technical preparation, who simply decided on promotions and punishments on political and racial grounds, or applied the directives coming from the Party. In short, a complex project such as the flight to the Moon would have required the joint and coordinated efforts of an entire nation, while in the Soviet Union everyone went their own way and often institutes, politicians and the military put obstacles in each other's way, chasing only prestige and personal power. The second reason for the Soviet failure was the insufficient political and financial commitment. While the United States, since 1961, dedicated a substantial portion of the national budget to the space enterprise and involved some of the largest national industries (Boeing, Rockwell, McDonnell Douglas, IBM. General Electric, etc.), in the USSR until 1964 the only top politician to show any interest in space was Nikita Khrushchev (1894-1971). From the point of view of financial commitment, the gross domestic product of the United States in the 60s was about double that of the Soviet Union, but according to some analysts the expenditure that the U.S. incurred for their space program was five times higher. An economic commitment completely unsustainable for the USSR, especially since Leonid Brezhnev (1906-1982), contrary to his predecessor Khrushchev, believed that military and agricultural spending should take priority over space spending. From this point of view, it is clear that the cost of sending a man to the Moon was badly balanced with the effort to equip himself with thousands of intercontinental missiles, an effort made at a time when agriculture was going through a particular crisis and the people were starving. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If You happen to see any content that is yours, and we didn't give credit in the right manner please let us know at Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com and we will correct it immediately" "Some of our visual content is under an Attribution-ShareAlike license.

Voyager 2, A Portrait Before The Farewell
Well, just four days after the deat- of Elvis, on August 20...from the Cape Canaveral base, the Voyager 2 mission left! 43 years have passed, a lifetime...and yet since then Voyager has still been traveling, and still sending signals from ever more remote distances. It is the oldest of all of those still operational, but now perhaps it is time to say goodbye. Let's see why retracing its entire history. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1? Business Enquiries: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pasadena, USA, summer 1964 at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. In view of future space missions conducted with automatic probes, the young aerospace engineer Gary Flandro (1934) is assigned the task of studying new trajectories for the exploration of the external solar system. And Flandro does his job very well, so much so that he discovered that in a few years there would be an alignment between the outer planets that would allow a probe launched towards Jupiter to fly over Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, only using the "gravitational slingshot" effect of each planet to reach the next; thus reducing from 40 to 10 years the time to complete the "Grand Tour", as it was then called the tour of the outer solar system. But it must be done soon... that particular alignment occurs in fact only every 175 years, and to take full advantage of the favorable moment the probe must be launched in a period between 1976 and 1980. Flandro's study, published in 1965, makes a lot of sensation in the environment, and in 1969 it originates a first NASA mission proposal called Planetary Grand Tour, later canceled for budgetary reasons; and then the one for the launch of two twin probes generically called Mariner 11 and 12 (only in 1977 the spacecraft would have received the name of Voyager 1 and Voyager 2), the first one directed to Jupiter and Saturn and the second one charged to realize the Grand Tour desired by Flandro, that is: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune! In the same year, the JPL proposed the construction of the probes, following the design phase begun in 1966, but it will not be easy ... In those years there were still many uncertainties about the obstacles that a spacecraft could encounter in crossing a region of the solar system that had not yet been explored. Some scientists, for example, believed that the asteroids of the main belt were so numerous that they prevented a spacecraft from crossing unharmed. Of great help in understanding that the danger was there, but much overestimated, were the Pioneer probes 10 and 11, which launched respectively on March 2, 1972, and April 5, 1973, would have been the forerunner for the Voyager. To make a long story short, after eight years of changes to the scientific and engineering load, Voyager 2 was launched from Cape Canaveral at 14:29 (universal time) on Saturday, August 20, 1977. About two years later, on July 9, 1979, the probe reaches the minimum distance from Jupiter, flies over the planet, and is diverted towards Saturn; receiving also a "push" (thanks to the slingshot effect) that increases its speed to reach Saturn more quickly. So Voyager 2 reaches the minimum distance from Saturn on August 26th, 1981, and from there it is diverted and accelerated towards Uranus, which flies over on January 24th, 1986; and, finally, from Uranus, it is directed towards Neptune, the remote planet that the probe reaches on August 25th, 1989. Carried out the "primary mission", namely that of the Grand Tour of the four gas giants, the glorious spacecraft arrived at over 30 astronomical units of distance (equivalent to 4.5 billion kilometers) is assigned the "Voyager Interstellar Mission". ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If You happen to see any content that is yours, and we didn't give credit in the right manner please let us know at Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com and we will correct it immediately" "Some of our visual content is under an Attribution-ShareAlike license.

How LHC (Large Hadron Collider) Works
The progress of technology in the last century has allowed human to build incredible machines and to do incredible things. It has allowed us to go to the Moon, for example, or to produce nuclear energy on Earth. But one of the most remarkable machine ever built by human is the LHC, the Large Hadron Collider. Want to know more about it and how it works? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1? Business Enquiries: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Large Hadron Collider, commonly known as the LHC, is a gigantic particle accelerator built under the CERN, the largest laboratory of particle physics in the world, located in the suburb of Geneva, at the border between France and Switzerland. The LHC is an incredible machine, and with its ring of 27 kilometres of circumference, it is actually the largest collider in the world. But what is a collider, actually? In order to investigate in deep the fundamental structure of nature, physicist have to recreate conditions which are similar to those of the Big Bang. One way of doing it is to accelerate elementary particles to extremely high speeds (almost at the speed of light), and then make them clashing together: this is exactly what a collider does. By analysing the outcome of these collisions, scientists are then able to find new particles and to improve our understanding of the Universe. LHC has a circular shape. In its 27-kilometers ring, there are two beams of high-energy protons, travelling in opposite directions. In the collider, these particles are accelerated up to a speed of 99.999999% of the speed of light. How is this done? The main method used to accelerate particles is to use the so-called “radiofrequency cavities”, or “RF cavities”. In simple terms, these are tubes placed all along the collider, containing an electric field which changes direction periodically. There are 16 radiofrequency cavities at the LHC. When a particle with electric charge is immersed in an electric field, it is accelerated by it, and the direction depends on the sign of the charge: if the particle has positive charge, such as a proton, it is accelerated in the same direction as the field. If it has negative charge, such as an electron, it will go in the opposite direction. If the particle has no charge, this method wouldn’t work, since the particle would not feel the effect of the electric field. When protons enter these cavities, an electric field is turned on, accelerating the particles in the desired direction. Each time protons enter a new RF cavity, they gain a bit more of energy thanks to the electric field. Eventually, after they have completed thousands of revolutions and entered these cavities thousands time, they reach a final speed which is almost the same as the speed of light. That is not enough, however, to make a collider. In fact, particles tend to go straight normally, not in a circle. Without any additional system, these protons would quickly crash against the walls of the ring. So, how to keep them in a circular trajectory? This is done by using magnetic fields. Contrary to electric fields, in fact, magnetic fields do not accelerate particles with electric charge; instead, they just deflect them, so that they change direction. Here, strong magnets are used to deflect the protons and keep them along the circular ring of LHC. However, in order to be able to create magnetic fields strong enough to deflect these high energetic protons, scientists need to use special magnets in the LHC. These magnets operate in the so-called “superconducting state”, a particular state in which they have almost zero loss of electrical power. This can only be achieved by keeping them at very low temperatures: in this case, about degrees! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If You happen to see any content that is yours, and we didn't give credit in the right manner please let us know at Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com and we will correct it immediately" "Some of our visual content is under an Attribution-ShareAlike license.

Liked on YouTube: Star Distances: How Far Away From Earth?


Star Distances: How Far Away From Earth?
Stars have always been considered from a romantic and poetic perspective. But how far are stars? Do they really are so distant from us? And how can we measure such tremendous distances? Are there any valid techniques? A lot of surprising things can be said about these questions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/InsaneCuriosity?sub_confirmation=1? Business Enquiries: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is it possible to calculate star distances? Definitely yes, but some further explanations must be clarified. Obviously, we can’t measure such a huge gap with the normal methods we are used to on earth. We must calculate distance in an indirect way. What does it mean? We need to measure two different quantities that are related to each other through distance; then, with a simple equation, we can easily derive how far the star is from us. Let’s make an example: if we want to measure how many kilometers are there between two cities, we can drive at a constant velocity and measure directly how much time does the journey take. After that we can just get information about the distance. Similarly, physicists utilize the different types of brightness of a star that depend on distance to know how far the star actually is. Before going on more rigorously on this subject we must list the major units of measure used to identify the distance of a star. The first one is astronomical unit, which is exactly the gap that separates Earth from the sun, corresponding to 1011 meters or 8 minute at the speed of light. The other one is parsec, nearly around 1016 meters or 3,26 light years, which represents the distance that causes a change of one degree in the sky over an entire year. This phenomenon is also known as parallax, but we’ll discuss it later. In order to understand the major techniques used in astronomical researches, we need to take a little step back and define some important physical quantities. The first one is absolute luminosity, which is the radiation power of a light emitting object. Consider it as the measurement of its brightness: a small lamp has a lower luminosity than a lighthouse. Moreover, we can define another quantity that derives by the previous one and it is named apparent luminosity. It is proportional to the inverse of square distance. Shortly, apparent luminosity is higher when the star is closer and viceversa. A lighthouse is certainly brighter than a lamp, but if it’s 10 or 20 times more distant the lamp will “seem” having a greater power. Apparent luminosity is a sort of superficial density of power. In parallel, physicists defined apparent magnitude which is greater when luminosity is lower and smaller when luminosity is higher. As a matter of fact, the brightest star visible from Earth, which is known as Vega, has a conventional value of zero. Obviously, it is dependent on distance and can be considered as an equivalent of apparent luminosity. In addiction, another quantity called absolute magnitude has been introduced by scientists: it measures the magnitude that all stars would have at a distance of 10 parsec. Similarly to what we did before with velocity and time, astronomers usually utilize absolute and apparent magnitude to derive distance. Since apparent magnitude can be measured through telescope observations, it is necessary to find objects that have a well-known absolute magnitude. These stars or galaxies are also called “standard candles” are they’re crucial for measuring distances of stars. The first object that is very useful for this method is a cepheid. Its major characteristic is the emission of electromagnetic waves: its intensity varies with time according to specific laws. How far can we find star distances thanks to this method? Around 1 kpc, just the closest ones can be detected using Cepheids as standard candles. As opposed to this technique, there’s even another way of revealing star distances at this scale just by using geometric properties. Did you know that? Its name is Parallax. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If You happen to see any content that is yours, and we didn't give credit in the right manner please let us know at Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com and we will correct it immediately" "Some of our visual content is under an Attribution-ShareAlike license.
