00:00:04
about 4.6 billion years ago a
00:00:07
mass cloud of gas and dust began to
00:00:10
collapse under the influence of
00:00:15
gravity as this cloud
00:00:18
contracted the increase in temperature and
00:00:21
pressure in the center resulted in the formation
00:00:24
of our Astro King the
00:00:27
sun at the same time the remaining matter
00:00:31
around the forming sun began to
00:00:34
group together creating the protoplanets and
00:00:37
other celestial bodies that would eventually
00:00:39
become the Planets Moons
00:00:43
asteroids and comets that we know
00:00:47
Today the first stages of formation
00:00:50
of the solar system were characterized
00:00:53
by a intense activity of collisions and
00:00:55
mergers as materials
00:00:58
came together and consolidated,
00:01:00
dust particles merged to
00:01:03
form larger objects, which in turn
00:01:06
merged to form
00:01:10
protoplanets, these protoplanets
00:01:13
continued to grow through
00:01:15
collisions and gravitational attraction,
00:01:18
eventually becoming the
00:01:20
inner rocky planets Mercury Venus Earth and
00:01:24
Mars and the more distant gas giants
00:01:27
Jupiter
00:01:29
Saturn Uranus and
00:01:33
Neptune over millions of years the
00:01:36
solar system underwent a process of
00:01:39
differentiation in which
00:01:42
heavier materials sank towards the
00:01:44
planets' cores while the
00:01:46
lighter materials were taken to the
00:01:51
surface, this differentiation resulted
00:01:54
in the formation of metallic nuclei on the
00:01:56
terrestrial planets and a
00:01:58
more complex composition on the
00:02:02
gas giants, all this dynamics resulted
00:02:05
in this spectacle, the solar system and today we are
00:02:09
going to travel together on the second part of
00:02:11
this incredible journey through our
00:02:15
system our trip will begin in the farthest
00:02:17
reaches of the Solar System Where we will
00:02:20
try to uncover the secrets of
00:02:23
pluto in this region we will try to
00:02:27
find the famous planet nine and
00:02:29
discuss the evidence that supports
00:02:31
the theory of a ninth planet in the
00:02:36
solar system a little more internally we will go
00:02:39
to enceladus a Saturn's moon and one of the
00:02:42
most promising places in the
00:02:45
Solar System Where there is the possibility of
00:02:48
finding simple life forms
00:02:52
and leaving the outer Solar System
00:02:55
directly to Our
00:02:57
neighborhood we will pass by Venus and
00:02:59
discuss the greatest discovery ever
00:03:02
made there that could change everything what
00:03:04
we know about the
00:03:07
cloudy planet our journey begins
00:03:10
[Music]
00:03:25
now in July 2015
00:03:29
NASA's New Horizon probe made history by
00:03:32
successfully visiting the distant and icy Dwarf Planet
00:03:37
Pluto the incredible images captured
00:03:40
during the passage left scientists and
00:03:42
space fans in awe open revealing a
00:03:45
complex and diverse world covered
00:03:48
by mountains, valleys, craters and even
00:03:51
a vast heart-shaped feature
00:03:54
that may be hiding an
00:03:56
underground ocean beneath this vastness
00:03:59
for the first time we can contemplate
00:04:01
Pluto in all its
00:04:05
glory but it is not just the presence From the
00:04:08
magnificent heart of Pluto that
00:04:10
amazed scientists when they
00:04:12
studied images across this
00:04:14
icy landscape, many other
00:04:16
unexpected but
00:04:18
fascinating features have also been discovered and
00:04:21
now new studies suggest that Pluto
00:04:24
is active and not as calm as it seems,
00:04:27
but as astronomers have come to know, this
00:04:29
conclusion what will be the
00:04:32
strange features they observed in the
00:04:34
images sent by the New horizons probe
00:04:37
and most importantly Do these
00:04:39
discoveries suggest the possible
00:04:41
existence of life on
00:04:45
Pluto it was in the year 2006 that NASA
00:04:48
launched the New horizons probe to
00:04:50
explore the which was then considered the
00:04:53
ninth planet of the solar system Pluto,
00:04:55
after a 9-year journey, the probe
00:04:58
reached the planet no and became the
00:05:00
first spacecraft to visit this
00:05:02
distant world, today the probe has already surpassed the
00:05:05
mark of 50 astronomical units from the
00:05:07
earth, which corresponds more than 7.5
00:05:10
billion kilometers, however,
00:05:13
data from the passage of
00:05:15
Pluto is still being analyzed by
00:05:17
astronomers to this day, if we go back to the
00:05:20
not-so-distant past, before the
00:05:22
New Horizons mission, we had
00:05:24
limited knowledge of the characteristics of
00:05:26
Pluto's surface beyond, Besides being the
00:05:28
first object ever discovered in the
00:05:30
Kiper belt, it is also the largest
00:05:32
body known in this region, however,
00:05:35
from the 90s onwards, when several
00:05:37
objects of similar sizes were
00:05:40
discovered in the Kyer belt,
00:05:42
Pluto's planetary status began to be
00:05:44
questioned and Finally, in 2006, the
00:05:48
International Astronomical Union reclassified
00:05:50
Pluto as a Dwarf Planet. But this did not
00:05:53
remove the little planet from humanity
00:05:54
's exploration radar.
00:05:58
This was one of the best
00:06:01
images captured by Rubble in 2002,
00:06:04
showing the world stained orange,
00:06:06
white and black, with a bright spot and
00:06:09
mysterious So as New
00:06:11
Horizons passed by the non-ice planet
00:06:13
it managed to capture some of the
00:06:15
most spectacular images ever seen from
00:06:17
space New Horizons images
00:06:20
revealed something completely
00:06:21
surprising and unexpected that has never been
00:06:24
seen on any other planet in the
00:06:28
solar system New Horizons images Pluto's surface
00:06:31
shows many irregular volcanoes
00:06:33
raised to different heights. Furthermore, there
00:06:36
is no evidence of tectonic activity,
00:06:39
which plays a crucial role in the
00:06:41
formation of mountains here on Earth.
00:06:43
All these factors together indicate that
00:06:45
this surface was formed after a
00:06:47
geological disturbance, probably a
00:06:50
volcanic eruption. which occurred
00:06:51
recently in the last 2 billion
00:06:54
years I know that 2 billion years may
00:06:56
seem like a long time but considering
00:06:58
the cosmic scale it is not that long
00:07:01
and it can be classified as a
00:07:05
recent event by enlarging this image we can
00:07:08
discover many of the
00:07:10
hidden characteristics of pluto some of which
00:07:12
may surprise you like the discovery
00:07:14
of a lake that once flowed with a
00:07:16
mysterious liquid this unexpected lake
00:07:19
can be found in a
00:07:21
mountain range west of the gigantic heart
00:07:23
of pluto it is about 20 miles
00:07:26
wide and now appears to be frozen,
00:07:29
however evidence elsewhere
00:07:31
on the planet does suggest that it may have
00:07:33
been a lake that once flowed with
00:07:35
liquid. This is a
00:07:37
surprising discovery considering that
00:07:39
Pluto's surface temperature is
00:07:41
about minus 230 degrees, although
00:07:44
it is not entirely clear that type of
00:07:46
liquid that filled this lake before it
00:07:48
froze over scientists believe it
00:07:50
was probably liquid nitrogen and it
00:07:53
is not just here where
00:07:55
liquid nitrogen could have once flowed
00:07:57
hundreds of thousands of years ago it
00:08:00
may also have carved out riverbeds
00:08:02
and crossed ravines as shown This
00:08:06
incredible image of how liquid nitrogen can
00:08:09
accumulate and flow in a
00:08:11
freezing state billions of kilometers
00:08:13
away from the Sun is likely due
00:08:15
to temperature and pressure fluctuations
00:08:18
on the surface of Pluto as it
00:08:20
approaches the Sun, not warming the planet
00:08:23
enough to transform the
00:08:25
nitrogen ice into gas but occasionally
00:08:28
the conditions must be perfectly
00:08:30
adjusted for the nitrogen to become
00:08:32
liquid this causes these
00:08:35
surprising characteristics that certainly no one
00:08:37
expected
00:08:39
to see one of the most
00:08:42
interesting characteristics of pluto is its
00:08:44
atmosphere as we can see In this
00:08:46
incredible image the gas in
00:08:48
Pluto's atmosphere is very different from Earth's to
00:08:51
begin with it is much thinner about
00:08:53
80,000 times less dense and is believed to be
00:08:56
created when
00:08:58
surface ice is vapor orized by
00:09:00
sunlight scientists believe that the
00:09:02
fog is a byproduct resulting from the
00:09:05
action of sunlight on methane and
00:09:07
other molecules this reaction produces a
00:09:10
complex mixture of hydrocarbons that
00:09:12
accumulate into small
00:09:14
fog particles as they descend through the
00:09:16
atmosphere fog particles
00:09:18
form numerous intricate horizontal layers
00:09:20
that form extend altitude
00:09:23
to almost 200 km as Pluto moves
00:09:26
away from the sun in its 200
00:09:30
Earth year orbit its atmosphere is believed to
00:09:32
freeze Possibly falling
00:09:34
as a type of snow on the surface
00:09:36
creating a layer of frozen material
00:09:39
if this Snow falls on grains or flakes like
00:09:42
here on earth is a mystery Maybe it is
00:09:44
even accompanied by strong winds like
00:09:46
a snowstorm or it can
00:09:48
resemble a light blizzard like we see
00:09:51
in some countries here on
00:09:53
earth in some regions it seems like
00:09:56
we can see a layer of snow
00:09:58
nitrogen that may have condensed in the
00:10:00
atmosphere and then settled on the
00:10:03
surface among the most
00:10:05
impressive features found on Pluto are
00:10:07
these large, snow-capped mountains
00:10:09
in the southern hemisphere that
00:10:11
almost resemble the Alps here on
00:10:13
earth as seen from the international space station
00:10:15
but when you look
00:10:17
closer you realize that they are actually
00:10:20
quite different the mountains on Pluto
00:10:22
are made of frozen water ice as
00:10:25
hard as granite and are covered
00:10:27
in a type of snow made up of
00:10:29
frozen methane some of these tall
00:10:31
mountains can reach heights of up to
00:10:34
3.5 km above the ground how these
00:10:37
structures formed is still a
00:10:41
mystery on earth mountains are
00:10:43
usually caused by
00:10:45
tectonic activity or volcanic eruptions
00:10:47
however Pluto is not geologically
00:10:50
active in the same way as earth so
00:10:53
scientists believe they
00:10:54
were probably formed by a
00:10:56
process called sublimation erosion
00:10:59
this occurs when frozen materials
00:11:01
such as nitrogen or methane on the surface
00:11:03
of pluto are exposed to sunlight and
00:11:06
sublime or transition directly from
00:11:08
solid to gas this process lifts the
00:11:11
surrounding land leaving behind
00:11:13
incredible structures like these
00:11:15
High, jagged peaks Pluto appears to be
00:11:18
replenishing its surface. In certain
00:11:20
regions, however, there are
00:11:23
several indications that a type of
00:11:25
cold, thick lava has been poured over its
00:11:28
landscape in different
00:11:31
places. These strange features
00:11:34
are caused by cri volcanoes, which are a
00:11:37
type of volcano that enters lupion with
00:11:39
icy volatiles such as water methane or
00:11:42
ammonia instead of molten rock cri
00:11:44
volcanoes can also be found on
00:11:46
some icy Moons of our
00:11:48
solar system such as Enceladus and
00:11:52
Europa on Pluto There are several
00:11:55
mountainous regions that have depressions or pits in
00:11:58
their surface
00:11:59
What could be the result of
00:12:01
volcanic activity one of the most
00:12:04
convincing evidence of the activity of these volcanoes
00:12:06
on Pluto is this feature called
00:12:08
w moons the mountain located in the
00:12:11
Southern Hemisphere rises to a height of
00:12:13
4 km above the surrounding terrain and has
00:12:17
a wide depression at the top as you
00:12:19
can see in this incredible image if
00:12:21
indeed it is an ice volcano as
00:12:23
suspected it would be the largest of its kind ever
00:12:26
discovered in the outer solar system
00:12:30
along the western edge of the heart of
00:12:32
pluto extensive desert-like dune fields
00:12:35
could be
00:12:37
found these features are
00:12:39
made up of material that appears to have
00:12:41
been blown across the surface by the
00:12:44
wind in a similar way to the Dunes
00:12:46
found here on earth the movement of the
00:12:48
wind lifts particles and deposits them
00:12:51
in a specific location however the
00:12:54
dunes on Pluto are unique in several
00:12:56
ways It is possible that they were
00:12:58
formed not only by wind but
00:13:00
also by the melting of
00:13:02
nitrogen ice causing grains of
00:13:04
methane ice the size of grains of sand to
00:13:07
be lifted above the ground by
00:13:09
rising gases and then carried by the air
00:13:12
beyond the dunes in Pluto are much
00:13:15
larger than the Dunes found here
00:13:16
on Earth some are as high as mountains
00:13:19
and stretch for kilometers this is
00:13:21
probably due to the lower Gravity
00:13:24
on Pluto which allows
00:13:26
particles to be transported more easily creating
00:13:29
these magnificent
00:13:34
[Music] features
00:13:39
another curious feature
00:13:42
of pluto is called pickard moons
00:13:45
it reaches almost 7 km in height and has a
00:13:48
width of about 225 km you would be
00:13:51
surprised to know that although the diameter
00:13:53
of pluto is only 1/6 that of the earth the
00:13:56
total volume of this volcano is similar
00:13:59
to that of the Mau naala in Hawaii one of the largest
00:14:02
volcanoes on our
00:14:04
planet these gigantic
00:14:07
surface features are on the southwestern edge of the
00:14:10
ice sheet known as sputnick
00:14:12
plantia which is the brightest region to the
00:14:15
left of the famous
00:14:20
heart shaped feature these places were sighted
00:14:22
for the first time When the New
00:14:24
Horizons probe flew over this region in July
00:14:27
2015, this layer is characterized by
00:14:30
an ancient impact basin almost
00:14:33
1000 km wide and is called by
00:14:36
folds and elevations that resemble
00:14:38
wrinkles in a smooth gill cover, there
00:14:40
are also several domes volcanics
00:14:42
in this region, most tend to merge
00:14:45
into a single dome, after
00:14:47
carefully analyzing the images captured
00:14:49
by the New Horizons probe, researchers
00:14:52
speculate that the formation of this terrain
00:14:54
must have been fueled by multiple
00:14:57
eruption sites located close to each
00:14:59
other and possibly the
00:15:02
ejected material during the cri
00:15:04
volcanic eruptions it coated the entire region with
00:15:07
layers of ice a detailed study
00:15:09
also reveals that the surface material
00:15:11
in this region is mainly
00:15:14
water ice not nitrogen or methane ice
00:15:17
as is generally found in
00:15:19
younger parts of the planetary surface
00:15:21
this further strengthens the
00:15:23
possibility of
00:15:26
volcanic activity also found throughout the
00:15:29
heart of pluto are
00:15:31
strange iceberg-like structures that
00:15:34
appear to be fragments of ice that have
00:15:36
broken off from the larger surrounding formations,
00:15:38
each fragment is one to several
00:15:40
kilometers wide but what is
00:15:42
interesting about these characteristics is
00:15:45
that they appear to float on the
00:15:47
frozen surface below scientists believe
00:15:49
that icebergs are massive chunks of
00:15:52
frozen nitrogen Because
00:15:54
water ice is less dense than
00:15:56
nitrogen ice when Ice bags
00:15:58
break off and are eventually
00:16:00
pushed into the heart of pluto
00:16:02
Probably by glacial flows they
00:16:05
become subject to the movement of the
00:16:07
nitrogen ice below as can be
00:16:09
seen in the strange shapes that
00:16:11
cover this region these formations
00:16:13
reveal the secret of pluto's heart
00:16:16
because they are the signatures of a process
00:16:18
called convection that occurs
00:16:21
everywhere where the fluid is heated
00:16:23
unevenly from the sun there is a
00:16:26
boiling kettle the convection means that
00:16:30
something under the heart of pluto is
00:16:32
hotter than the surface and is
00:16:35
causing this great plain of
00:16:36
frozen nitrogen to slowly rotate
00:16:39
over millions of years and if you
00:16:41
look closely you will notice that icebergs
00:16:44
are usually clustered around
00:16:46
these patches because they
00:16:48
are probably being pushed to the edge
00:16:50
by the forces
00:16:52
below for these internal dynamics of
00:16:55
pluto to work in particular
00:16:57
volcanoes it
00:16:58
would need a constant source of
00:17:00
heat to driving eruptions for
00:17:03
example on earth the energy for
00:17:05
volcanism comes mainly from
00:17:08
residual heat from the formation of our
00:17:10
planet and from the radioactive decay that
00:17:13
occurs in the center of the Earth in other
00:17:15
cases this heat can also result from the
00:17:17
Tug caused by
00:17:19
gravitational interaction with neighboring
00:17:21
massive objects This is the phenomenon that causes
00:17:24
volcanism in oo, for example, however,
00:17:27
in the case of plut,
00:17:29
none of these possibilities fit
00:17:31
well, nor are the planet's neighbors
00:17:33
strong enough to generate
00:17:36
tidal and gravitational forces enough to
00:17:38
heat its interior, nor is the amount of
00:17:40
rocky material present in Pluto's core
00:17:42
is enough to generate heat
00:17:45
through radioactivity, so Pluto
00:17:48
has an average surface temperature
00:17:50
of almost minus 240º, so where does
00:17:54
this
00:17:57
energy come from, considering all these points,
00:18:00
the only plausible scenario is that the
00:18:02
Dwarf Planet It still has residual heat
00:18:04
from its formation trapped inside
00:18:06
But probably in a deep ocean
00:18:09
of water beneath its frozen crust, other
00:18:12
icy bodies in the solar system such as
00:18:14
Saturn's moon Enceladus and Jupiter's moon Europa
00:18:17
are also known to
00:18:19
contain such oceans. Enceladus
00:18:22
has shown evidence of
00:18:24
regular volcanism spewing icy material into
00:18:27
space and including replenishing one
00:18:29
of Saturn's Rings, however large
00:18:32
chains of icy volcanoes spread over
00:18:34
such a large area and recycling the
00:18:37
surface of the celestial body have not been
00:18:39
observed anywhere else on Earth.
00:18:41
Solar System except on
00:18:45
Pluto, but we cannot forget that the
00:18:47
New Horizons probe only made a
00:18:50
quick pass and observed the region for
00:18:52
just one day, so it is still difficult to
00:18:55
confirm whether cri volcanic activity
00:18:57
is still active on Pluto or whether
00:18:59
exotic ice volcanoes have have become
00:19:01
dormant but if the planet is not still
00:19:04
active this would strengthen the
00:19:07
possibility of finding a
00:19:08
liquid ocean below the surface and who knows
00:19:11
maybe even
00:19:12
[Music]
00:19:20
life before the New Horizons probe visited
00:19:23
Pluto we had limited knowledge
00:19:26
about what its surface was like now
00:19:28
that we saw it in all its wonder and
00:19:30
glory we discovered many of its
00:19:32
fascinating characteristics some of
00:19:35
which we explored in
00:19:38
today's video probably Pluto is just one of
00:19:41
hundreds of dwarf planets in the
00:19:43
citur de kyer region can you imagine the
00:19:46
wonders that exist on the other
00:19:48
dwarf planets that We have not yet visited the
00:19:50
likes of Rmea Makim or Eris, for example, what
00:19:54
we have left is to hope that one day
00:19:57
we will see them in all their
00:20:00
splendor. But beyond these stars there is
00:20:03
a mystery, an object hidden in the
00:20:06
darkness of this distant place that
00:20:08
seems to be disturbing the orbits of this
00:20:12
region. What could be
00:20:14
causing such a phenomenon a cluster of
00:20:17
small objects perhaps or perhaps the
00:20:21
famous planet
00:20:23
[Music] we did not
00:20:40
grow up Knowing exactly what the
00:20:42
solar system looked like from our
00:20:45
central Sun to Pluto however everything
00:20:48
changed in 2006 when the union
00:20:52
International astronomy at the time made a
00:20:54
highly controversial decision and placed Pluto
00:20:57
in a new category. From that
00:21:00
moment on, this object that lies in the confines
00:21:02
of the Solar System would be a
00:21:08
Dwarf Planet, since then Pluto lost its
00:21:11
status as a planet, scientists did not
00:21:13
abandon their efforts to detect
00:21:16
other large objects in the outer reaches of the
00:21:18
Solar System After all, there is something beyond
00:21:21
Neptune's orbit that
00:21:23
significantly affects the trajectory and
00:21:25
revolution of celestial objects such as
00:21:28
asteroids and Dwarf Planets, and
00:21:30
we're not talking about the kind of thing
00:21:32
we can visualize with telescopes,
00:21:34
some studies suggest that it could being the
00:21:37
ninth planet in the
00:21:40
solar system, others are more radical and
00:21:44
suggest that the anomalies detected in the
00:21:46
Kiper belt are the result of a
00:21:48
small primordial black hole or
00:21:51
even a cluster of dark matter
00:21:53
[Music]
00:21:57
the idea of ​​a large undiscovered planet
00:22:00
now known as planet
00:22:02
nine but Originally called
00:22:05
planet
00:22:22
was
00:22:25
mysterious object affecting the orbits of
00:22:28
Neptune and Uranus But it was later revealed
00:22:30
that Pluto was too small to cause
00:22:33
such an effect but it was at the turn of the century
00:22:35
that smaller objects besides Neptune in
00:22:38
some cases the size of Pluto
00:22:40
were being discovered as
00:22:43
these discoveries accumulated It became
00:22:45
clear that a massive population of
00:22:47
strange worlds existed in a region we
00:22:50
now call the
00:22:54
Kyer belt with the discovery of the
00:22:57
Kiper belt many other mysteries emerged
00:22:59
including once again the possibility
00:23:02
of a giant undiscovered planet in
00:23:04
January 2016 the Researchers
00:23:07
Constantin BG and Mike Brown from Caltec
00:23:11
presented mathematical evidence that
00:23:13
suggested the existence of the hypothetical
00:23:16
Planet
00:23:28
gravity however if that were the
00:23:31
case the mass of the belt would have to be
00:23:33
100 times greater than it is today
00:23:36
computer simulations using a small planet
00:23:38
have shown that its mass would be
00:23:40
insufficient to align the objects
00:23:42
in this way however if you
00:23:45
run a similar simulation with a
00:23:47
massive planet the size of Uranus or
00:23:49
Neptune the mathematical model converges and
00:23:52
practically duplicates the results of the
00:23:56
real-world calculation
00:23:59
the researchers' work establishes
00:24:01
limits for the possible mass of the ninth
00:24:03
planet the location of its orbit and
00:24:06
even its position in the sky according to the
00:24:09
calculations this hypothetical planet could
00:24:11
be 10 times more massive than the Earth,
00:24:14
have a diameter two to four times that
00:24:16
of our planet, be 20 times
00:24:19
further from the Sun than Neptune and could
00:24:21
have a year that varies from
00:24:23
7400 to 20,000 Earth years,
00:24:29
so Like many astronomers before
00:24:31
them, the search for an undiscovered giant
00:24:33
lurking in the far reaches of the
00:24:35
Solar System was back on. The reason
00:24:38
many astronomers believe
00:24:40
the planet could not exist is due
00:24:43
to some interesting movements between
00:24:46
certain objects in the Kyer belt and the
00:24:48
scattered disk that are regions beyond
00:24:50
Neptune with hundreds of thousands of
00:24:53
icy bodies these mysterious objects
00:24:56
include a planet not called sedna and
00:24:58
five other ker belt objects
00:25:01
that are tilted at the same angle and
00:25:03
in the same direction causing their
00:25:05
orbits to be clumped together Maybe this
00:25:08
could be due to the gravitational pull
00:25:11
of an unknown object And
00:25:13
incredibly since 2016 another 11
00:25:16
objects have been identified as having
00:25:18
strange orbits that are not due to the
00:25:21
influence of Neptune so could this
00:25:23
be the result of an undiscovered ninth planet
00:25:29
based on the apparent pull
00:25:30
gravitational As we have already seen,
00:25:33
scientists estimated that the hypothetical
00:25:34
planet 9 would have a mass of about 10
00:25:37
times that of the Earth using this
00:25:39
information and what we already know about
00:25:41
our solar system was theorized as to what
00:25:44
this planet could be like if it really
00:25:46
existed. The first Possibility is a
00:25:49
planet nine rocky but not like the
00:25:51
terrestrial planets Mercury Venus Earth
00:25:54
or Mars but rather a bizarre world
00:25:57
Possibly volcanic a common type of
00:26:00
planet that can be detected around
00:26:02
other stars in our galaxy the
00:26:05
super [Music]
00:26:13
earth super earth as the name suggests
00:26:16
these worlds are bigger than the earth but
00:26:18
smaller than Neptune however as
00:26:21
we know no planet of this type has been
00:26:23
discovered in our solar system so
00:26:25
could planet nine be
00:26:27
our super Lost Earth Maybe but the
00:26:30
possibilities are very low Due to the
00:26:32
distance from the sun to second possibility
00:26:35
is that planet 9 would be a
00:26:37
giant version of the thousands of icy objects
00:26:39
that populate the kyer belt if
00:26:42
planet 9 is made of ice it would be the
00:26:44
largest object ever formed in this region
00:26:47
Possibly 5000 times the mass of
00:26:49
pluto it would also look like Pluto in
00:26:51
many ways and due to its
00:26:54
colossal size. It would possibly hide a
00:26:56
vast ocean of liquid water below the
00:26:58
surface with the potential to be the
00:27:01
largest body of water in the
00:27:04
solar system. The third possibility, which
00:27:07
is also the most plausible, is that the
00:27:09
planet is not a gas planet Perhaps
00:27:12
a smaller version of Neptune or Uranus,
00:27:15
scientists have long theorized that
00:27:17
the middle of the early Solar System was
00:27:19
a gas-rich zone that eventually
00:27:22
coalesced into the four gas planets we
00:27:25
can observe today as time
00:27:27
collisions and ejections shaped them and
00:27:30
moved them to their current positions, but it
00:27:32
could also be possible that a
00:27:34
fifth gaseous planet began to
00:27:37
form within this region, the world that
00:27:39
perhaps passed too close to
00:27:41
Jupiter or Saturn, resulting in its
00:27:43
ejection into a distant,
00:27:46
eccentric orbit, if planet 9 is a
00:27:48
gaseous planet it would not have a
00:27:51
solid surface just a small dense core
00:27:54
Possibly rocky covered by
00:27:56
thick layers of stormy clouds
00:27:59
its atmosphere would probably be
00:28:01
similar to that of Neptune however the
00:28:04
planet could not be a gaseous planet
00:28:06
like no other in our system
00:28:09
[Music]
00:28:12
solar considering there is a lot of
00:28:15
evidence that points to a ninth
00:28:17
planet you may be wondering
00:28:19
why we haven't found it yet certainly
00:28:22
a giant planet would have been discovered
00:28:24
by now isn't it although the sun is very
00:28:28
bright here on earth the longer
00:28:30
you stay the darker it is This makes
00:28:33
objects on the edge of our
00:28:35
solar system faint and difficult to detect. If
00:28:38
you were on Pluto at midday, the
00:28:41
amount of light emitted by the sun would be
00:28:43
similar to what we receive near a
00:28:45
sunset here on Earth. Basically finding
00:28:48
Pluto was like finding a piece of
00:28:50
cardboard in the dark and if planet nine
00:28:53
exists it will be even larger than the
00:28:55
planet,
00:28:59
unfortunately for astronomers it is very
00:29:01
likely that at this moment the planet
00:29:04
is even further away from the Sun with the
00:29:06
radius of its elongated orbit varying from
00:29:09
380 to 980 astronomical units on average,
00:29:13
and even all the data collected so
00:29:15
far does not provide a complete picture of the
00:29:18
possible location of the
00:29:21
mysterious planet, the search area today covers
00:29:24
approximately 6 to 800 G in the night sky,
00:29:28
as a reference, the full moon occupies 0.2º
00:29:32
qu in the sky, astronomer Constantin one of the
00:29:35
researchers searching for planet nine
00:29:37
suggests that part of its difficulty in
00:29:40
being found beyond the absurd distance
00:29:42
as we have seen is that it would probably
00:29:44
reflect little or no sunlight,
00:29:47
basically it lives in shadow,
00:29:50
however, although it is difficult to find,
00:29:53
astronomers calculate that if it is there
00:29:55
Current telescopes
00:29:57
should eventually be able to detect it So
00:30:01
why haven't we found it yet? The
00:30:03
8.2 m subaro telescope located in
00:30:07
Avaí is one of the telescopes that are
00:30:09
helping in the search, although this is one of the
00:30:12
best options currently
00:30:13
available The team only has access to the
00:30:16
telescope approximately three nights
00:30:18
a year to search for the mysterious planet.
00:30:21
There is a possibility that NASA's
00:30:24
transiting exoplanet search satellite,
00:30:26
the famous Tens, could also
00:30:29
spot Planet Nine as it searches for
00:30:31
exoplanets around
00:30:33
distant stars, but The best hope for
00:30:35
finding this elusive world lies with a
00:30:37
new telescope currently under construction
00:30:40
in the mountains of
00:30:44
Chile. In 2023, the 8.4 m Vera Rubben Observatory will
00:30:48
begin monitoring the entire
00:30:52
night sky. This will allow astronomers to
00:30:55
track the movements of objects in
00:30:57
our solar system and
00:30:59
beyond, many researchers are
00:31:02
confident that the ninth giant planet
00:31:04
really exists out there based on its
00:31:07
gravitational influence through the
00:31:10
kyer belt and scattered disk, but
00:31:13
it may still take years to
00:31:15
discover. Therefore, planet 9 still
00:31:18
exists only as a hypothesis for this
00:31:20
and other reasons part of the
00:31:23
scientific community adheres to this idea
00:31:25
seeking other explanations
00:31:27
for the anomalies we see in this region of the
00:31:38
solar [Music] system in an attempt to locate and
00:31:41
narrow the Planet's orbit the
00:31:43
researchers compared the results
00:31:45
of the simulation with real objects From the
00:31:48
Kyer belt the 4 billion
00:31:50
year old model of the Solar System was built
00:31:53
and scientists wanted to understand how the
00:31:55
gravitational pull of the largest
00:31:57
planets and the ninth planet could
00:31:59
affect the orbits of thousands of objects
00:32:01
in the Kyer belt although this study
00:32:04
actually proved the existence
00:32:06
of an object that actually influences the
00:32:08
position of other celestial bodies
00:32:11
recent research has cast doubt
00:32:13
on the existence of a massive planet
00:32:15
in a recent 2021 study
00:32:18
around 300 new objects were discovered in the
00:32:21
kyer belt region where the previous study
00:32:26
theorized
00:32:27
[ Music]
00:32:30
astronomers scan most of the sky
00:32:33
with the Atacama space telescope which
00:32:35
is also in Chile in search of the ninth
00:32:38
planet and spent 6 years studying 87%
00:32:41
of the sky visible from the
00:32:44
Southern Hemisphere supposedly a detailed analysis
00:32:46
of the orbits of the objects in question
00:32:49
revealed that each case of
00:32:51
orbital synchronization can be explained by
00:32:53
physics effects known except for two
00:32:56
celestial bodies
00:32:57
But even these two anomalies are an
00:32:59
exception among 300 objects and in a
00:33:02
way confirmed the new hypothesis
00:33:05
Why do the discoveries of these
00:33:07
orbits not coincide with the predictions
00:33:09
from the previous study, the answer may be
00:33:12
that the ninth planet theory
00:33:14
is simply incorrect, however, the
00:33:17
nature of the strange behavior of the
00:33:18
orbits of some objects in the
00:33:21
most distant regions of our solar system,
00:33:23
which according to some astronomers is caused
00:33:25
by a known ninth planet, may in
00:33:28
instead be explained by the
00:33:31
combined gravitational force of small
00:33:33
objects orbiting the Sun. In addition to
00:33:38
Neptune, the alternative planet
00:33:41
nine theory proposed by researchers suggests the
00:33:44
existence of a disk composed of
00:33:46
small icy bodies with a
00:33:49
combined mass of up to 10 times that of Earth
00:33:51
when combined with the
00:33:53
simplified model of the solar system, the
00:33:55
gravitational forces of the hypothetical disk can
00:33:58
explain the architecture of
00:34:00
unusual orbits observed in some objects
00:34:02
in the most remote regions of the
00:34:05
Kyer belt. To try to resolve this, the
00:34:07
researchers created a
00:34:09
computational model of the
00:34:10
trans-Neptunian objects as well as the planets of the
00:34:13
solar system and its gravity along
00:34:16
with a large disk of debris beyond the
00:34:18
orbit of Neptune and to our chagrin
00:34:21
it was discovered that if you remove the
00:34:23
ninth planet from the model and instead
00:34:26
add many small objects
00:34:28
spread over a wide area the
00:34:29
collective attractions between These objects
00:34:32
could also explain the
00:34:34
eccentric orbits we see in some bodies.
00:34:37
Previous attempts to estimate the
00:34:39
total mass of objects beyond Neptune only
00:34:42
amounted to about 1 Deo of Earth's mass,
00:34:45
however for
00:34:46
trans-Neptunian objects to have the orbits we
00:34:48
see today and for so that we can exclude the
00:34:51
ninth planet the model requires that the
00:34:53
combined mass of the kyer belt be
00:34:56
between five and even 10 times the mass of the
00:35:02
earth another group of scientists used the
00:35:05
Iras infrared astronomical satellite
00:35:08
and the Acari infrared telescope to
00:35:10
search for the ninth planet were carried out
00:35:12
two photographic surveys more
00:35:15
than 20 years apart giving
00:35:17
enough time for any
00:35:19
hypothetical planet to move slightly to
00:35:21
a different part of the sky, scientists
00:35:24
assumed that any distant planet
00:35:26
would be close to the equatorial plane of the
00:35:28
sky because of the
00:35:30
solar system's planetary disk and studied the data
00:35:32
marking potential planets they
00:35:35
found more than 500 candidates
00:35:38
however when analyzing the
00:35:40
energy distribution of their spectra most of
00:35:42
them had orbital distances
00:35:44
around 1000 astronomical units. This
00:35:47
means that these objects were
00:35:49
too distant to be planet nine
00:35:51
and at the conclusion of the study it was determined
00:35:54
that most of these objects were in
00:35:56
fact
00:36:01
faint Nebulae [Music] the lack of evidence
00:36:04
proving the existence of planet 9
00:36:06
led some researchers to
00:36:08
present very exotic alternatives
00:36:10
to explain the dynamics of the
00:36:14
kyer belt the question that can summarize
00:36:17
this entire idea is quite simple what type of
00:36:19
object would have enough mass to
00:36:22
alter the orbits of other
00:36:24
celestial bodies and yet not be for us
00:36:27
this led theorists to consider a
00:36:30
radical hypothesis and when I say
00:36:32
radical I really mean it literally and if
00:36:34
the mysterious ninth planet were a
00:36:37
small primordial black hole that can
00:36:39
be detected by the radiation emitted
00:36:42
around its edges, the so-called radiation
00:36:46
[Music]
00:36:53
Hulk there is a contradiction related
00:36:56
to the mass of such an object since it is
00:36:59
believed that only the most
00:37:01
gigantic stars are large. enough
00:37:03
to form a black hole, the
00:37:06
black holes they would leave behind
00:37:08
would have a minimum mass of five times the
00:37:11
mass of the sun, but what if the
00:37:13
extreme conditions of the early universe
00:37:15
made it possible for
00:37:17
smaller black holes to form, these primordial black holes
00:37:20
would be
00:37:24
different, they never were. Observations,
00:37:27
but theories point out that these
00:37:29
miniature monsters are formed from the
00:37:32
hot Neva of energy and matter that
00:37:34
formed in the first second of the Big Bang.
00:37:37
Primordial black holes are dense
00:37:39
enough that no light can
00:37:42
escape, which means this one would not
00:37:44
appear. in any type of telescope
00:37:47
that currently exists looking
00:37:49
directly at it the only clue that
00:37:51
would indicate its presence would be a void in
00:37:54
a small gap in the starry night sky
00:37:58
[Music]
00:38:00
and now a group of astronomers from
00:38:01
Harvard University plans to begin
00:38:04
the search for these objects yet in
00:38:06
2023 as part of the
00:38:09
lsst project to help them find these
00:38:12
black holes in the farthest corners
00:38:14
of the Solar System astrophysicists
00:38:17
have developed a method to look for
00:38:19
explosions that occur when a
00:38:21
black hole collides with small objects in the
00:38:23
kyer belt and cloud or a
00:38:26
region that could potentially contain
00:38:28
several trillion bodies around
00:38:30
our system, researchers say
00:38:33
that sometimes objects within the
00:38:35
orte cloud like comets can interact with
00:38:38
these hypothetical black holes creating
00:38:41
a flash of visible light that the
00:38:43
Robin Observatory could detect
00:38:46
So if scientists could
00:38:48
confirm that a small black hole the
00:38:51
size of an orange with the mass of
00:38:53
CCO and 10 times that of the Earth orbits the sun
00:38:56
it could provide an answer to one of the
00:38:58
greatest mysteries of
00:39:00
modern cosmology the formation of black holes and
00:39:03
mess completely the
00:39:05
scientific community in the process is
00:39:10
clear however the other hypothesis as
00:39:13
exotic as that of the miniature black hole
00:39:15
but equally worthy of
00:39:17
consideration and if there in the far reaches of the
00:39:19
Solar System there were an object made
00:39:22
of
00:39:24
dark matter Would it be possible to detect
00:39:27
evidence of matter dark matter around us,
00:39:29
a new hypothesis now suggests that
00:39:32
most of the dark matter may be
00:39:35
concentrated in objects the size of
00:39:36
Neptune, so-called dark matter planets,
00:39:39
although these planets remain
00:39:41
invisible to us, they may create an
00:39:44
atmosphere of helium and hydrogen, which
00:39:46
can take this body to reach
00:39:48
critical temperatures triggering
00:39:51
nuclear fusion within these planets,
00:39:53
which would help us discover them.
00:39:56
Scientists believe that if
00:39:58
dark matter planets exist, they
00:40:00
clearly formed when the universe
00:40:02
was very young and remained static
00:40:05
for billions of
00:40:08
years. however, dark matter does not
00:40:11
interact with ordinary matter or
00:40:13
light and therefore could gather
00:40:16
freely in space according to this theory,
00:40:19
instead of being uniformly
00:40:20
distributed throughout the galaxy,
00:40:23
most of the dark matter would be within
00:40:25
these relatively compact spheres
00:40:28
with masses ranging from an
00:40:30
asteroid to
00:40:35
Neptune What would we see inside
00:40:38
a planet like this? This is certainly
00:40:40
difficult to say, but to be clear,
00:40:43
all of this is hypothetical and despite being well-
00:40:45
founded, this has never been observed in the
00:40:49
[Music]
00:40:51
universe as searches for the
00:40:53
planet continue to fail, this leaves
00:40:56
room for more exotic hypotheses such as
00:40:58
a black hole or a concentration of
00:41:01
dark matter, however, although
00:41:04
observations so far have not revealed
00:41:06
a single planet in the confines of the
00:41:08
Solar System, this does not mean that the search
00:41:10
has been completely in vain, the theory of the
00:41:13
ninth planet has provoked an unprecedented increase
00:41:15
in research into the
00:41:17
Kyer belt and other trans-Neptunian objects,
00:41:22
the search for the planet may
00:41:25
eventually lead to something even more
00:41:27
significant for
00:41:29
scientific progress But is planet 9
00:41:32
really Out there it is always wise
00:41:34
to be skeptical but something must definitely be
00:41:37
responsible for all those
00:41:39
unusual orbits that can be found in the
00:41:41
outer cellular system. Hopefully
00:41:44
continued efforts and advances in
00:41:46
technology will soon be able to confirm
00:41:49
whether or not there is an undiscovered ninth planet
00:41:51
out there. and if there is a
00:41:55
better understanding of its role in the
00:42:04
solar system, on the vast and mysterious stage of
00:42:08
our system where the
00:42:10
known planets play their well-
00:42:12
defined roles, there is a character who still
00:42:15
hides in the shadows of the unknown,
00:42:17
planet
00:42:19
nine, this cosmic Enigma is a mystery
00:42:22
which challenges our
00:42:24
conventional understandings, it saw us exploring the
00:42:27
depths of space and questioning the
00:42:30
frontiers of our knowledge since
00:42:32
the dawn of astronomy, we have observed the
00:42:35
Celestial ballet of the planets as
00:42:37
they orbit the sun, yet in our
00:42:40
tireless quest to understand the
00:42:42
complex gears of Solar System
00:42:45
we found clues that lead us to the
00:42:47
existence of a ninth planet far beyond
00:42:49
the Limits of what
00:42:53
we know theories about planet
00:42:55
nine range from the possibility of it being
00:42:58
a super earth, a rocky and
00:43:01
volcanic world that defies our
00:43:03
expectations to the vision of a
00:43:05
gas giant a stormy and
00:43:08
mysterious sphere that resembles no
00:43:10
other planet in our
00:43:12
system modern astronomers employ
00:43:15
technologies and advancements such as
00:43:18
powerful telescopes and sophisticated instruments
00:43:21
to track the movement and
00:43:23
gravitational impact of this hypothetical planet
00:43:26
in the most remote regions of the
00:43:28
solar system however the The search for planet
00:43:30
nine is like looking for a cosmic needle
00:43:33
in the haystack of space where darkness
00:43:36
reigns and sunlight becomes a
00:43:39
dim candle, yet the mystery of planet
00:43:41
nine is not just a matter of
00:43:43
scientific discovery but also a
00:43:46
journey that challenges us. looking beyond the
00:43:49
limits of current understanding it can be
00:43:51
tempting to give in to skepticism or believe
00:43:53
that it is just an unsolved enigma but
00:43:56
we must remember that science always
00:43:58
advances when we take the risk of exploring
00:44:01
the
00:44:03
unknown and it is precisely this search
00:44:06
that inspires us to explore more and more
00:44:08
deeper into the solar system and we got
00:44:11
a glimpse of the complexity of our
00:44:13
system when the Cassine probe flew over
00:44:16
the plumes of Enceladus in an
00:44:19
incredible maneuver and found an icy world
00:44:21
where at least microbial life
00:44:24
could develop
00:44:27
[Music]
00:44:43
at first glance its covered surface
00:44:46
Shining Snow looks like a
00:44:48
fairytale setting, an icy landscape that
00:44:51
defies the imagination, but as
00:44:54
we explore deeper
00:44:56
we discover secrets that defy our
00:45:00
understanding. Beneath this sheet of ice
00:45:03
lies an underground ocean, an ocean
00:45:06
that may contain the
00:45:07
essential ingredients for life. is enceladus
00:45:13
we are used to thinking that life
00:45:16
can only originate on planets
00:45:18
similar to our Earth or exoplanets
00:45:21
close to its Central star
00:45:23
however What if I told you that these
00:45:26
exoplanets are probably not the
00:45:28
only candidates for the emergence of
00:45:30
life perhaps small icy Moons
00:45:33
Far from the sun could also be home
00:45:36
to
00:45:38
living organisms Today we're going to talk about Saturn's two moons
00:45:41
Mimas and Enceladus and how
00:45:45
life could potentially thrive on few
00:45:48
apparently lifeless moons
00:45:51
Worlds in our
00:45:53
solar system are as fascinating as the
00:45:56
icy moon of Saturn enceladus small
00:45:59
enough to almost fit in the
00:46:00
United Kingdom, this small but
00:46:03
fascinating world is covered in
00:46:05
intriguing features, the most notable being its
00:46:08
bright white surface and the huge
00:46:10
cracks that crisscross its
00:46:14
icy terrain, however the
00:46:17
incredible discoveries are not just limited to Its
00:46:19
surface beneath its
00:46:21
frozen crust lies a secret underground ocean
00:46:24
that contains the ingredients
00:46:26
needed for life. Much of
00:46:29
Enceladus still remains a mystery, but
00:46:32
using the stunning images
00:46:33
captured by the most recent probes
00:46:35
that have visited the Saturn system,
00:46:37
we can discover more about this
00:46:40
tiny world. taking a closer look and
00:46:42
observing its
00:46:44
fascinating features like never before why it
00:46:47
is so bright what causes these
00:46:49
huge feas and what other Secrets
00:46:52
we discovered during our time
00:46:54
exploring the moon with the incredible
00:46:59
Cassini mission before the Cassini probe arrived at
00:47:02
Saturn this was the best
00:47:04
incel image of what we had captured by the
00:47:06
famous Voyager 2 in
00:47:09
1981 it revealed that the icy moon was one
00:47:12
of the most active Worlds in the solar system
00:47:14
with one side being practically a
00:47:16
cosmic punching bag While the other
00:47:18
side is tranquil and calm indicating
00:47:21
huge differences in age of the land
00:47:23
23 years after this image, NASA's Cassine probe
00:47:26
arrived at Saturn, capturing
00:47:29
exciting images of Enceladus in much
00:47:31
greater detail, allowing us to see much
00:47:34
more with the huge features
00:47:36
similar to tiger stripes that
00:47:38
cross its pole highlighted in blue in this
00:47:41
image, the stripes They are one of the
00:47:44
most distinctive and
00:47:46
intriguing features seen on Enceladus. They are
00:47:48
parallel and evenly spaced,
00:47:51
about 130 km long and 35 km apart.
00:47:55
What makes them
00:47:58
especially interesting is that
00:48:00
as you watch this video, they
00:48:02
are expelling material icy cold right now,
00:48:04
just like the geysers
00:48:06
we find here on
00:48:08
earth, the water in the Ocean below freezes and
00:48:12
gushes into space through these stripes
00:48:14
or cracks, as can be seen in these
00:48:17
incredible images, it was discovered that
00:48:19
enceladus undergoes gravitational flexions
00:48:22
while orbiting Saturn, which deforms
00:48:24
its structure making the
00:48:26
ice sheets at the poles thinner and more susceptible
00:48:29
to cracking due to the effects of
00:48:31
tidal forces caused by
00:48:34
Saturn's gravity, the cracks also remain
00:48:36
open, constantly widening and
00:48:39
narrowing, preventing them from closing and
00:48:41
causing the ocean below to rise and
00:48:44
freeze in the In the vacuum of
00:48:47
space, most of this material falls
00:48:50
back to the surface as a type
00:48:52
of snow, while the rest supplies
00:48:55
one of Saturn's rings, however it is
00:48:58
believed that the ice crystals and
00:49:00
enceladus are only a fraction of a
00:49:02
millimeter in size, approximately one
00:49:05
or 2 microns in diameter even
00:49:07
thinner than talcum powder can, scientists
00:49:10
think it is unlikely that the plumes of
00:49:12
icy material began soon
00:49:14
after the formation of the moon and never
00:49:17
changed, which could mean that the
00:49:19
plumes had much more active times
00:49:21
in the past, producing much more
00:49:23
material that over millions of years
00:49:26
ended up being deposited and creating these
00:49:28
extremely deep regions of
00:49:30
snow accumulation similar to dunes,
00:49:33
this massive snow cover also
00:49:35
makes enceladus one of the most
00:49:38
reflective objects in the solar system, however it
00:49:40
is not just the surface of enceladus the
00:49:43
sole destination of these
00:49:45
frozen particles they also supply a
00:49:48
part of Saturn's magnificent rings
00:49:52
called the ring and it is this
00:49:56
tenuous section of Saturn's ring system that is
00:49:58
actually being created by enceladus
00:50:01
as it moves through space and
00:50:03
pulverizes material around it. along its
00:50:05
path the larger particles fall
00:50:08
back to the surface as Snow As we have already
00:50:10
seen while the smaller particles
00:50:12
travel higher escaping from enceladus and
00:50:15
forming this huge ring in this
00:50:18
incredible image captured by the Cassine probe
00:50:20
enceladus can be seen in action with the
00:50:23
ice stream if spreading across the esp
00:50:26
forming a trail of long extensions
00:50:28
and it is not just these places that the
00:50:30
incel particles reach
00:50:32
Neighboring moons were also coated with their
00:50:34
snow like parts of tetes that are
00:50:37
brighter due to their passage through the
00:50:39
ring and the Trojan moons telesto Calypso
00:50:42
Helene and polydys are particularly
00:50:46
affected as their orbits move
00:50:48
up and down in the plane of the ring.
00:51:03
projecting at around
00:51:06
200 m per second and appears to be
00:51:09
continually erupting with no sign of
00:51:12
slowing down as these magnificent
00:51:14
plumes are fed by the mysterious
00:51:16
ocean below they also offer an
00:51:18
opportunity for study by providing a
00:51:21
window of sorts into what has been
00:51:23
happening beneath the ice between 2000 200 and
00:51:25
2015 the Cassine probe flew through the
00:51:28
Enceladus Plumes several times and
00:51:31
analyzed the material and something incredible and
00:51:34
unimaginable happened the probe detected
00:51:37
in the material most of the ingredients
00:51:39
necessary for life but before
00:51:41
we analyze the probabilities of incel
00:51:44
supporting life let's take a look take a
00:51:46
closer look at another moon of Saturn
00:51:48
with a composition very similar to that of
00:51:50
incado, by the way the moon
00:51:54
mimas
00:51:59
mimas was discovered in
00:52:01
1789 by the English astronomer William
00:52:04
hershel mimas is one of the smallest moons
00:52:06
of Saturn with a diameter of
00:52:08
only 396 km approximately 1 quarter the
00:52:12
size of our moon Mimas, it consists
00:52:14
mainly of water ice so
00:52:17
its surface is very cold with an
00:52:19
average temperature of around minus 200º
00:52:22
C. Furthermore, it is very close to Saturn at
00:52:25
an average distance of 185,000 km from the
00:52:28
giant
00:52:30
[Music ]
00:52:31
gaseous this proximity is probably
00:52:34
due to the bizarre migration of mimes in fact
00:52:37
this event also explains a
00:52:39
peculiarity of Saturn's Rings Have you
00:52:41
ever noticed that in some regions
00:52:43
Saturn's rings are separated by a
00:52:45
line this line is called
00:52:47
cassine division some researchers suggest that
00:52:50
mimas may have migrated closer
00:52:52
to Saturn in the past, thus clearing
00:52:55
this line of ice particles and
00:52:59
dust. It is estimated that Saturn would need
00:53:02
more than 40 million years to
00:53:04
completely close this 4500
00:53:08
km line. Furthermore, mima is in resonance
00:53:11
with other Moons such as Enceladus Fi and Dione.
00:53:15
This means that the closer they
00:53:17
are to each other, the faster they
00:53:19
move in their orbits and consequently
00:53:22
slow down when they move away, this action
00:53:25
stretches Mimas' orbit to an
00:53:27
almost elliptical shape, which supports the idea
00:53:30
that life could exist on the moon but
00:53:32
we will return to that point in a
00:53:34
moment however what is most intriguing is the
00:53:36
surface of mimas most of the moon
00:53:39
is covered by huge craters with
00:53:41
most of them being between 20 and 40 km in
00:53:45
diameter distributed across both
00:53:47
hemispheres however all of them are
00:53:49
overshadowed by the most
00:53:51
striking feature of mimas the huge crater
00:53:54
hershel located in the northern part of the moon
00:53:57
Do you remember something when you
00:53:59
look at this crater it is about
00:54:01
130 km in diameter which is clear it may
00:54:04
not seem very impressive when
00:54:06
compared to the earth but for the small
00:54:08
mimas it is equivalent to almost 13 of its diameter
00:54:11
curiously despite the name it was not
00:54:13
William herson who discovered this
00:54:15
crater but rather the Voyager probe in
00:54:20
1980 however this does not mean that the
00:54:23
crater has appeared recently
00:54:26
Its age is estimated at 4 billion
00:54:28
years, scientists suggest that the
00:54:30
celestial body that collided with Mimas and formed the
00:54:33
crater may have almost destroyed the moon.
00:54:43
smaller than Mount Everest, which
00:54:45
demonstrates the strength of the impact, however
00:54:48
a collision with such a large cosmic body
00:54:50
would not only affect the
00:54:52
surface of the moon, one of the most
00:54:54
notable effects of the collision is probably the
00:54:56
strange temperature of the surface of
00:55:00
Mimas, expected to the temperature
00:55:03
inside the moon flowed smoothly from the
00:55:05
hot core to the cold surface as
00:55:08
normally occurs on planets and some
00:55:10
moons, but analysis of the temperature by the
00:55:12
Cassine probe left scientists
00:55:14
perplexed, it was discovered that a small
00:55:16
part of the moon on the left that resembles
00:55:19
the shape of Pacman is hot while
00:55:22
the rest of the surface is cold,
00:55:24
interestingly the Hershel crater is also
00:55:27
much hotter than the rest of the
00:55:28
occupied surface, it is probably this
00:55:31
unknown body that collided with mimas,
00:55:34
the researchers speculate that the impact
00:55:36
may have melted the ice on the surface
00:55:39
that it quickly froze again
00:55:41
causing this difference in temperature,
00:55:43
however the upper chamber of mimas
00:55:46
remains intact, on the other hand, some
00:55:49
researchers point out that such
00:55:50
strange temperatures may be
00:55:53
caused by the irradiation of
00:55:55
charged particles captured by
00:55:57
Saturn's magnetic field, verified and
00:55:59
confirmed by the
00:56:03
cassine data until the At the moment there is no
00:56:06
definitive answer to this question,
00:56:08
so perhaps future missions can bring us
00:56:11
closer to unraveling this Pacman-like mystery of
00:56:13
temperature.
00:56:15
Enceladus already appears to be heated much more
00:56:18
uniformly than mimas, in terms of
00:56:20
characteristics, enceladus does not appear to be
00:56:23
very different from mimas and It
00:56:25
was also discovered by astronomer William
00:56:27
Hershel Enceladus is only about 100
00:56:29
km larger in diameter than Mimas and its
00:56:32
average temperature and composition are not
00:56:35
very different except for its
00:56:37
density being greater than that of Mimas, the
00:56:39
two moons have an elongated elliptical orbit
00:56:42
In the case of Enceladus it is due to
00:56:44
interaction with Dione however Enceladus
00:56:47
has a much smoother and
00:56:49
younger surface compared to Mimas although it
00:56:52
also has craters larger than 30 km
00:56:55
on its surface they are less common
00:56:57
than the depressions and mountain ranges that
00:56:59
can be seen on almost the entire
00:57:01
surface of the moon, the abundance of these
00:57:03
landforms may indicate a
00:57:05
different tectonic activity. Furthermore,
00:57:08
another interesting similarity between
00:57:09
enceladus and mimas is their influence on
00:57:12
Saturn's rings. As we have already seen, enceladus did
00:57:15
not create a rift as
00:57:18
mimas probably did, but in fact,
00:57:23
filled them, as we have also seen before,
00:57:25
in addition to the bright rings that are
00:57:27
very close to the gas giant, there is
00:57:30
another ring called an annulus that is less
00:57:32
visible and is about 180,000 km from the
00:57:35
center of Saturn, about 300,000
00:57:38
km wide. So how could a
00:57:41
such a small moon create such a large ring
00:57:43
This is where some
00:57:46
significant differences between enceladus and mimas begin
00:58:00
with snow, in fact, this characteristic of
00:58:03
enceladus that allows it to reflect
00:58:06
almost all the light that falls on it, which
00:58:08
makes its surface even
00:58:12
colder. We saw that this snow is caused by the
00:58:15
underground oceans, which, after being
00:58:18
expelled into space, part of them fall
00:58:20
back into the moon But how did
00:58:22
researchers come to the conclusion
00:58:25
that there is an underground ocean On this
00:58:27
apparently lifeless moon
00:58:30
in its unforgettable passage
00:58:33
cassini also observed that the moon
00:58:35
vibrated a lot as it rotated after
00:58:38
several calculations this vibration could only
00:58:41
mean one thing enceladus was hiding
00:58:43
some massive fluid in its interior and
00:58:46
combined with the data collected by the
00:58:48
geysers, the answer was clear. There is an
00:58:51
ocean hidden under the ice layer of
00:58:53
Enceladus.
00:58:57
These ice particles come out
00:58:59
of the depths of the ocean at a
00:59:01
speed greater than 1200 km/h and cover
00:59:04
the entire surface. of enceladus however
00:59:07
enceladus is very small Should
00:59:09
n't it have already exhausted the energy
00:59:11
for these eruptions well astronomers
00:59:14
believe it will take about 9 billion
00:59:16
years for this to happen which is
00:59:19
twice the current age of the
00:59:23
Solar System while the cassine
00:59:26
slowly floated through Saturn's rings, the
00:59:28
probe discovered that the Ring, which is
00:59:30
composed mainly of
00:59:32
ice droplets, also contains certain grains that
00:59:35
can only be generated where liquid water and
00:59:37
rock interact at temperatures above
00:59:40
90º C, indicating that there are
00:59:43
possibly deep hydrothermal currents
00:59:45
under the frozen shell of
00:59:47
Enceladus and which are warming its
00:59:50
ocean, very similar to what we
00:59:52
find in our oceans here on
00:59:53
Earth. What makes the moon an
00:59:56
ideal environment for the development of
01:00:00
microbial life? Another
01:00:02
fundamental characteristic for life is the atmosphere and
01:00:05
guess what? Enceladus has a
01:00:08
geyser and volcanoes on the moon are also
01:00:10
responsible for recycling
01:00:12
Enceladus' atmosphere, which is largely composed
01:00:15
of water vapor, as well as small
01:00:17
amounts of nitrogen,
01:00:19
carbon dioxide and methane, interestingly, the moon
01:00:22
probably has a metal core
01:00:25
and due to its porous shape it can warm
01:00:27
the moon's ocean making it even more
01:00:30
suitable for living organisms therefore
01:00:33
enceladus could be hiding an entire
01:00:35
ecosystem beneath this layer of ice
01:00:38
however if enceladus and mima are so
01:00:40
similar why mimas does not have
01:00:43
geysers although enceladus does have Claros
01:00:45
evidence of an internal ocean that
01:00:47
remains completely frozen. Despite
01:00:50
its more elongated orbit, which should
01:00:52
heat it more than in a cell,
01:00:57
this strange temperature led
01:01:00
NASA scientists to create theories to
01:01:02
explain the frozen water on the moon, which
01:01:04
would also justify the presence of water.
01:01:07
partial and geysers on enceladus
01:01:09
researchers from the University of
01:01:11
Warsaw believe that this phenomenon
01:01:14
could be caused simply by the
01:01:16
different periods of heating of the
01:01:18
moons due to the gravitational pull of
01:01:20
Saturn enceladus is much denser
01:01:23
than mimes, which means it can be
01:01:25
heated for a longer period long
01:01:27
while mimas due to its
01:01:29
small size and low density cools
01:01:32
quickly Furthermore, in order not to lose
01:01:35
too much heat, the moon needs to enter into
01:01:37
resonance with another body as
01:01:39
quickly as possible, however, mimas
01:01:41
interacted gravitationally with tets
01:01:43
too late, when it had already
01:01:48
completely cooled, mimas can be considered
01:01:51
a block of ice that is unlikely to
01:01:53
melt, making life unlikely on
01:01:56
its surface or below it Oops,
01:01:59
calmer, it seems that mimas is not that
01:02:01
inactive for a long time,
01:02:04
scientists considered mimas a
01:02:06
lifeless moon, but a recent observation
01:02:09
has forced the scientific world to reconsider
01:02:12
This thought in 2014, researcher
01:02:14
Juan Tagerim discovered that Mimas oscillates
01:02:18
back and forth as it rotates.
01:02:20
This unusual behavior of the moon is
01:02:22
explained by a strangely shaped nucleus
01:02:24
or some form of
01:02:26
internal activity, but what could be
01:02:28
inside this small
01:02:30
moon in reverse? than everyone thought
01:02:34
under tens of kilometers of
01:02:36
ice crust there could be an ocean just like in
01:02:39
enceladus last year it was discovered
01:02:41
that mimas is capable of generating
01:02:43
enough heat to maintain an ocean in its
01:02:46
interior but it is not enough
01:02:49
to melt its layer thick layer of ice,
01:02:52
according to new observations,
01:02:54
to everyone's surprise, the mimas ice layer
01:02:56
began to thin, so it is
01:02:59
possible that Saturn's moon is the
01:03:01
Oceanic world about to reveal itself,
01:03:04
thus mimas and enceladus reveal to
01:03:06
scientists the possibility of
01:03:09
frozen celestial bodies develop life
01:03:12
even in apparently empty and
01:03:18
inhospitable places the ocean is practically the basis
01:03:21
for the origin of life so could
01:03:23
Mimas on Enceladus be
01:03:25
potentially habitable Let's try to
01:03:27
find out this as we saw apparently
01:03:30
these places have specific hot areas
01:03:32
and carbon dioxide
01:03:35
therefore Theoretically no one must
01:03:37
rule out the possibility that these
01:03:39
ice planets could be habitable,
01:03:42
furthermore, in our own
01:03:44
solar system there are more than one icy moon
01:03:47
where life could be possible, as is the
01:03:49
case with Jupiter's moon Europa, furthermore,
01:03:52
the Cassine probe discovered that these
01:03:54
Geysers contain chemical elements
01:03:56
necessary for life such as oxygen,
01:03:59
hydrogen and various carbon compounds
01:04:02
including methane, which may be the
01:04:04
result of microbial life. After
01:04:06
studying gas emissions, some
01:04:09
scientists believe that microbes may
01:04:11
exist in Enceladus' ocean in the same
01:04:14
way as they do on Earth. without the
01:04:16
need for
01:04:19
sunlight, Saturn can in fact send several
01:04:22
vital compounds to the ocean of Enceladus
01:04:25
and probably also to
01:04:28
mimas. Unfortunately, this moon has not
01:04:30
aroused much interest among scientists
01:04:33
and much about it remains unknown,
01:04:36
however the new discoveries and the fact that it
01:04:38
has A liquid ocean is a
01:04:40
very significant feature in the
01:04:42
origin of life, therefore it is possible that the
01:04:45
Mimas Ocean also contains the
01:04:47
same elements necessary for the
01:04:49
development of organisms as
01:04:51
in Enceladus. In addition, the thickness of the
01:04:54
Mimas Ice is similar to some
01:04:57
parts of the surface of enceladus which
01:04:59
means that internal activity
01:05:01
could melt this ice however
01:05:04
unlike enceladus mimas has a
01:05:07
strange temperature distribution which
01:05:09
may explain the lack of geysers
01:05:11
this does not necessarily mean that
01:05:14
life on mimas is impossible
01:05:16
anyway the absences of rifts and
01:05:18
geysers and mimas can be explained by the
01:05:21
fact that the ocean on the moon may have
01:05:23
formed recently, in addition,
01:05:26
mimas' elongated elliptical orbit would allow it to
01:05:29
be well heated, which indicates that it
01:05:32
probably has a liquid ocean
01:05:34
heated not only by the attraction of
01:05:36
Saturn, but also by internal sources
01:05:39
similar to enceladus, however,
01:05:42
mimas does not have an atmosphere, which can
01:05:45
reduce the chances of life, although it does not completely eliminate them,
01:05:58
mimas and enceladus were a true
01:06:00
gift for planetary science.
01:06:03
Completely changing the obvious and showing that
01:06:06
icy worlds can be candidates
01:06:08
viable for life, in addition, they
01:06:10
presented an additional challenge to
01:06:12
scientists by showing that life may not
01:06:15
be limited to Earth-like planets,
01:06:18
these fascinating discoveries on
01:06:21
Saturn's moons tell us what secrets the
01:06:25
solar system still hides in its
01:06:30
orbits around the gas giants.
01:06:33
several promising Moons,
01:06:36
complex and incredible worlds such as Jupiter's moon
01:06:38
Europa and Neptune's Moon
01:06:42
Triton But studying the external solar system
01:06:45
due to distance and
01:06:47
several other factors is extremely
01:06:50
difficult, but don't go thinking that the
01:06:52
internal solar system is a piece of
01:06:54
cake we have as an example Venus Our
01:06:57
closest neighbor and a planet
01:06:59
extremely difficult to study
01:07:02
due to its thick atmosphere But this did
01:07:05
not stop astronomers from making the

greatest discovery on the surface of the

unraveling its enigmas and discovering

its history

01:08:25
suffocating pressure there are valuable lessons
01:08:28
about how the nature of a planet can
01:08:30
be transformed over time it's
01:08:33
been a while since we sent missions
01:08:35
to the cloudy planet but that doesn't
01:08:37
mean we haven't made new
01:08:43
discoveries new discoveries have been
01:08:45
made from images and data
01:08:48
stored for decades data
01:08:50
collected more than 30 years ago when
01:08:53
NASA's Magelan probe took photos of

Venus at the time scientists were
01:08:59
focused on mapping the
01:09:01
planet's surface and studying its dense atmosphere
01:09:04
but what they didn't realize was that they
01:09:06
were capturing something far more
01:09:11
[Music]
01:09:14
extraordinary Venus the second planet
01:09:17
from the sun often called the

earth's twin because of its
01:09:22
similar size and composition however
01:09:24
while the Earth is a refuge for life
01:09:27
Venus is an extreme planet with a
01:09:30
diameter of about of 12,000 km Venus is
01:09:33
almost the same size as Earth but is
01:09:35
much closer to the Sun at an
01:09:37
average distance of about 108 million
01:09:39
kilometers. This proximity means
01:09:42
that Venus has a much
01:09:44
hotter environment than Earth with
01:09:46
surface temperatures that can reaching 470 GC,
01:09:51
making it the
01:09:53
hottest planet in our solar system, even
01:09:55
hotter than Mercury, which is much
01:09:58
closer to the
01:09:59
[Music]
01:10:01
sun, one of the main factors that
01:10:03
contribute to the high temperatures of
01:10:05
Venus is its dense atmosphere Composed
01:10:09
mainly of carbon dioxide and
01:10:11
nitrogen, this atmosphere creates a
01:10:13
powerful greenhouse effect, trapping
01:10:16
heat and causing temperatures to
01:10:18
rise. Furthermore, the dense clouds of
01:10:21
sulfuric acid that surround the planet
01:10:24
contribute to its
01:10:27
overheating, despite its
01:10:29
harsh conditions, Venus has fascinated
01:10:32
scientists have long sought
01:10:34
to study its unique features and
01:10:36
understand its history. Over the years,
01:10:39
researchers have made many
01:10:41
discoveries about Venus, including the fact
01:10:44
that it is the only planet in our
01:10:46
solar system that rotates
01:10:48
clockwise on its axis, and the
01:10:50
atmosphere of Venus is dominated by
01:10:53
the rapid rotation of the cloud layer that
01:10:55
rotates much faster than the
01:10:57
planet itself, these dense and charged clouds
01:11:01
take four days to completely rotate
01:11:03
around Venus while the planet itself
01:11:06
takes a leisurely 243 days to complete
01:11:09
one rotation around itself even both
01:11:12
rotations occur in a
01:11:14
retrograde direction defying the norms of the
01:11:18
solar [Music] system in the context of Venus This
01:11:21
means that the planet and its atmosphere
01:11:24
move in a direction opposite to the rotation of the
01:11:27
sun and most other planets in the
01:11:29
solar system this natural movement of
01:11:32
convection begins at about 10 km
01:11:35
altitude and gradually increases up to 65
01:11:38
km where the equatorial winds reach
01:11:42
an absurd speed of 540 km/h
01:11:45
gradually decreasing as they
01:11:47
rise it looks like the atmosphere of Venus Or
01:11:51
at least the cloud layer rotates about
01:11:53
50 times faster than the planet
01:11:56
itself and this fascinating phenomenon
01:11:58
probably influenced the
01:12:01
planet's rotation but here's the dilemma the mass of
01:12:03
Venus' atmosphere is only 1 ten
01:12:06
thousandth of the planet's mass so how
01:12:09
is this
01:12:12
possible it must have happened an exchange of
01:12:15
velocities between the planet and the
01:12:17
atmosphere, this to conserve
01:12:20
Total kinetic energy, but even today the sterio
01:12:24
remains
01:12:26
unresolved. Furthermore, despite the
01:12:28
scorching heat and the harsh environmental conditions
01:12:31
of the planet, the temperature on the
01:12:34
surface of Venus is almost constant and
01:12:37
uniform due to to the Winds that sweep
01:12:39
its surface and ensure that the heat
01:12:42
is distributed evenly
01:12:44
during the Venusian night, which lasts about
01:12:47
58 Earth days, the
01:12:50
surface temperature drops slightly, however the
01:12:53
temperature varies with altitude, the
01:12:55
atmosphere at 100 km above the surface
01:12:59
it reaches an average of a pleasant 25 GC at this
01:13:03
altitude, in addition to the temperature, the pressure
01:13:06
is also milder, making the
01:13:08
upper atmosphere of the cloudy planet
01:13:10
the area most similar to Earth in the
01:13:13
solar system, even more similar
01:13:16
than the surface of
01:13:17
[Music]
01:13:19
Mars due to the similarity in pressure and
01:13:22
temperature and the fact that on Venus the
01:13:25
breathable air is lighter than the
01:13:26
atmosphere it has been proposed that the
01:13:29
upper atmosphere could be a good place for
01:13:31
future exploration and perhaps even
01:13:36
colonization the atmosphere of Venus is very
01:13:39
massive about 90 times the mass of the
01:13:42
Earth's atmosphere, Venus' atmosphere
01:13:44
has a density of about 1 Deo of the
01:13:47
density of water, which together with the
01:13:49
corrosive composition is responsible for
01:13:52
a level of erosion comparable to that of a
01:13:56
river despite the strong winds in the
01:13:59
atmosphere of the planet there is almost no wind
01:14:01
on the surface but exceeding the
01:14:03
speed of a few kilometers per hour
01:14:06
being strongest at the Equator and weakest
01:14:08
towards the
01:14:10
poles however much of
01:14:14
Venus's past remains a mystery although
01:14:16
we know that the planet was formed around
01:14:18
4 .5 billion years ago it is
01:14:22
unclear how it came to become the
01:14:24
hot and hostile world we know today.
01:14:27
Some scientists speculate that
01:14:29
volcanic activity may have
01:14:31
played a significant role in
01:14:33
shaping the planet's environment, with
01:14:35
eruptions releasing PR gases that
01:14:38
contributed to this atmosphere
01:14:40
we see
01:14:41
[Music]
01:14:48
today over the years scientists
01:14:51
have made many observations from
01:14:53
both Earth and probes some of the
01:14:56
first recorded observations
01:14:59
date back to antiquity when astronomers
01:15:01
such as the Greek philosopher Pythagoras and the
01:15:04
Roman poet Ovid documented their
01:15:06
observations of Venus in the sky
01:15:09
However, it was only in the 20th century that
01:15:12
scientists were able to study Venus in
01:15:14
more detail, especially with the missions
01:15:17
[Music]
01:15:20
venera on March 5, 82, the
01:15:25
Soviet Union's vener 14 landing module
01:15:28
managed to land successfully on the
01:15:29
surface of Venus in a total of
01:15:32
just 57 minutes before succumbing to the
01:15:35
hostile environment it managed to capture a
01:15:37
colorful panoramic photo of its
01:15:39
extremely hot surroundings more than four
01:15:42
decades later this photo is still one of the
01:15:45
best we have of the surface of
01:15:49
venus the venera series of probes was
01:15:52
launched by da Soviet Union in the
01:15:55
1960s, 70s and 80s with the aim of studying the
01:15:59
bizarre environment of the planet Venus.
01:16:02
Furthermore, the program had the ambitious goal
01:16:05
of taking the first photos of the
01:16:06
surface of another
01:16:09
planet. During the program, 13 probes
01:16:12
successfully reached Venus and
01:16:14
transmitted data over our neighbor
01:16:17
of which eight successfully landed on the
01:16:19
surface and four managed to capture
01:16:22
incredible photography along with the
01:16:25
extreme heat this environment would
01:16:27
easily destroy most spacecraft
01:16:30
attempting to explore the hostile landscape of
01:16:32
vus however venera's landing modules
01:16:35
were designed to withstand
01:16:37
these intense conditions just long
01:16:39
enough to collect data and
01:16:42
send us the first glimpse of the
01:16:44
Venusian surface, but how exactly
01:16:47
is it possible to take a photo in such a hellish environment? What is
01:16:54
clear from
01:16:56
previous data is that if the camera were
01:16:58
placed outside the
01:17:00
landing module's protection, the enormous pressure and
01:17:02
temperature would destroy it, so the
01:17:06
engineers placed a rangefinder
01:17:08
inside the landing module, through a
01:17:10
special hole, the light from the surface
01:17:13
reflected through a periscope that
01:17:15
directed it to the camera that was located
01:17:17
protected inside, the venera 9 launched
01:17:20
on June 8, 197,
01:17:23
was the first mission to attempt to take
01:17:25
photos of the Venusian surface using
01:17:28
this technology, although the probe
01:17:30
landed successfully, unfortunately only
01:17:33
one of the lens covers of the two
01:17:36
cameras separated correctly, which
01:17:39
was planned as a
01:17:40
360º panoramic photo around the
01:17:44
lander it became a 0G photograph
01:17:48
however we got our first view
01:17:50
of this extreme scenario
01:17:54
the white object at the bottom of the
01:17:56
photo is part of the lander and the
01:17:58
distortion is caused by the old system
01:18:01
image of the venera here it is possible to
01:18:03
observe angular rock formations
01:18:06
partially buried in the ground that
01:18:08
dominate the landscape and the
01:18:11
mysterious horizon is visible in the upper
01:18:13
left and right corners of the photo Following in the
01:18:16
footsteps of the venera 9 the venera 10 arrived at the
01:18:19
surface of Venus in 25 October
01:18:22
19 75 again unfortunately only one
01:18:26
of the lens caps separated
01:18:28
properly resulting in a
01:18:31
180º panoramic photo before the probe
01:18:34
fell silent about 65 minutes
01:18:38
later the lighting was similar to that of
01:18:41
a cloudy summer day on earth the
01:18:44
objects at the bottom are parts of the
01:18:46
spacecraft and the ground appears to be covered
01:18:49
in flat rocks similar to the
01:18:51
volcanic areas found here on
01:18:54
[Applause]
01:18:55
earth in December
01:18:58
1978 the venerates 11 and venerates 12 landed
01:19:02
on Venus collecting even more data for
01:19:04
over an hour and trying to capture the
01:19:07
first color images unfortunately
01:19:10
In both cases the problem with the
01:19:12
lens covers affected these two
01:19:14
missions both camera covers
01:19:17
failed to separate So although the
01:19:19
landers returned
01:19:21
valuable data neither were able to
01:19:23
take photographs after this
01:19:26
disappointing failure in the Lens covers,
01:19:28
engineers made a series
01:19:30
of changes to the design of Venus 13 and
01:19:33
14, which until now are the only probes
01:19:36
that have transmitted color photos of the
01:19:39
Venusian landscape. Vener 13 landed on Venus on
01:19:43
March 1,
01:19:45
1982, once on the surface, the lens covers The
01:19:49
lenses were successfully ejected and the
01:19:51
cameras began taking a
01:19:53
panoramic photo around the lander. The
01:19:56
probe survived for 127 minutes
01:19:59
before stopping transmitting signals long
01:20:02
enough to capture in color what
01:20:05
appears to be a bizarre yet
01:20:07
familiar landscape. possible to see in some
01:20:10
places here on earth the lens cap
01:20:12
can be seen in front of the
01:20:14
lander and distant hills can be
01:20:17
seen in the corners of the image just four
01:20:19
days later on March 5, 19 72 the
01:20:23
venerable 14 successfully posed in a
01:20:26
different region to Venus and like its
01:20:29
Twin the lens cap was
01:20:31
successfully ejected allowing us to see even more of
01:20:34
this inhospitable landscape this time
01:20:36
however the ground appears to be much more
01:20:38
fractured with little of the material seen
01:20:41
in the vener 1 images once again being
01:20:44
able to be Seeing the lens cap and
01:20:46
the mist-covered horizon in the distance,
01:20:50
each of these incredible photos
01:20:53
gave us a small glimpse of a world
01:20:55
covered in clouds so thick that they
01:20:57
completely hid the surface from
01:21:00
us. They revealed a yellow sky
01:21:03
above a desolate and cracked
01:21:06
that is at the same time Alien yet
01:21:10
familiar Despite this opaque ball
01:21:13
hiding its interior, a probe was
01:21:16
able to cross this fog and see beneath
01:21:18
all these
01:21:21
clouds NASA's passave magelan arrived at
01:21:25
Venus in
01:21:26
1990 and spent 4 years mapping the
01:21:29
surface of the planet spacecraft
01:21:32
collected a huge amount of data
01:21:34
including detailed images of the
01:21:36
planet's surface and data on its
01:21:38
topography, gravity and
01:21:43
magnetic fields. Only 30 years later in
01:21:47
2020, scientists made an
01:21:49
incredible discovery when they reanalyzed the
01:21:51
data collected by Magelan, the presence
01:21:54
of active volcanoes on Venus a The discovery
01:21:57
was made by a team of
01:21:59
researchers from the Zurik Institute of Technology
01:22:01
in Switzerland who analyzed
01:22:04
radar data from Magela and identified
01:22:07
features on the surface of Venus
01:22:09
that suggested the presence of
01:22:11
volcanic activity. The team also examined
01:22:14
images taken by the spacecraft and
01:22:16
found evidence of lava flows and
01:22:19
other volcanic features But
01:22:21
how did the scenes determine the
01:22:23
presence of active volcanoes on Venus
01:22:26
from data collected more than 30
01:22:31
years ago? A key factor was the use of new
01:22:35
imaging techniques and algorithms that
01:22:37
allowed researchers to extract
01:22:39
information more detailed of the data
01:22:42
collected by magelan by analyzing the
01:22:44
radar data the researchers
01:22:46
were able to identify changes on the
01:22:48
surface of Venus that
01:22:50
were likely caused by volcanic activity
01:22:52
they also found evidence of
01:22:55
elevated surface temperatures in the
01:22:57
same locations which
01:22:59
further supports the idea that there are
01:23:01
active volcanoes on the
01:23:04
planet Additionally recently another
01:23:07
similar study was published In this
01:23:10
article that was published in the journal
01:23:12
Science it was discussed how
01:23:15
volcanic activity on Venus was obscured by the
01:23:18
lack of observable eruptions however
01:23:21
the authors images from the same spacecraft
01:23:24
to study volcanic areas on Venus
01:23:26
Thanks to images taken between 1990 and
01:23:31
1992 they carried out a manual search in
01:23:34
areas previously identified as
01:23:36
likely manifestations of
01:23:38
active volcanism. The authors looked for
01:23:41
volcanic formations such as wind cones and
01:23:44
lava flows that had appeared or changed
01:23:47
between the images to create a
01:23:49
detailed topographic map. used
01:23:52
a technique called stereo
01:23:54
radar radiogrammetry, in addition they made
01:23:57
the images appear as if they had been
01:23:59
taken directly over the object
01:24:02
of observation using a process called
01:24:08
orthogonal transformation, as a result they
01:24:11
discovered that a cone of a volcano in
01:24:14
a region called ATL Regio changed
01:24:16
drastically in less than a year the same
01:24:19
opening doubled in size and deformed
01:24:22
with a lava lake filling the edge
01:24:25
8 months later this discovery may
01:24:27
provide clues about the evolution of
01:24:30
Venos and the differences between its
01:24:32
landscapes and those of
01:24:36
Earth, however it is not It is completely
01:24:39
unclear whether volcanism is currently
01:24:41
active or not. The low level of detection
01:24:44
suggests that Venus is less volcanic active
01:24:47
than Jupiter's satellite, but it is worth
01:24:50
remembering that only about 1.5 of
01:24:53
Venus's surface area has been studied
01:24:55
given observational difficulties.
01:24:58
due to the atmosphere and
01:25:02
data limitations The recent discovery of
01:25:05
active volcanoes on Venus is a
01:25:07
very important advance in the field of
01:25:10
planetary science since In the not-so-
01:25:12
distant past Venus was considered a
01:25:15
geologically dead planet, the presence
01:25:17
of active volcanoes means that Venus
01:25:20
is still geologically active, which opens up
01:25:23
new possibilities for studying the
01:25:25
formation and evolution of the surface of
01:25:29
rocky planets. Another possible consequence of the
01:25:32
discovery of active volcanoes on Venus is
01:25:35
the possibility of detecting
01:25:37
microbial life on the planet.
01:25:39
Volcanic activity on Earth is often
01:25:42
associated with the presence of microbial life
01:25:44
and the same may be true on Venus
01:25:47
although conditions there are harsh with
01:25:50
temperatures high enough to
01:25:52
melt lead and a dense atmosphere of
01:25:54
carbon dioxide it is possible that
01:25:57
microbial life has adapted to
01:25:59
survive in these extreme conditions
01:26:01
as is the case here on Earth where life
01:26:04
can be found in the most
01:26:08
inhospitable places, as for future missions to
01:26:11
Venus, the discovery of active volcanoes on the
01:26:13
planet has already generated
01:26:15
considerable interest from the scientific community and
01:26:18
there are already plans for future missions to
01:26:20
Venus, such as the Veritas and 20
01:26:24
Plus the Veritas mission is led by
01:26:27
NASA's jet propulsion laboratory
01:26:30
and will be launched in the next decade with the
01:26:32
aim of studying Venus from its
01:26:35
surface to its core to
01:26:37
understand how a rocky,
01:26:39
Earth-sized planet followed a
01:26:41
completely
01:26:43
different path The Veritas mission will use a
01:26:46
state-of-the-art synthetic aperture radar
01:26:48
to create
01:26:50
three-dimensional global maps and a
01:26:52
near-infrared spectrometer to determine the
01:26:54
composition of the planet's surface. The
01:26:57
spacecraft will also measure the
01:26:59
planet's gravitational field to determine
01:27:01
the structure of
01:27:05
Venus' interior by On the other hand, the 20 Plus mission
01:27:09
is a complement to the Veritas mission
01:27:11
planned by NASA to study the
01:27:13
atmosphere and geology of Venus, while
01:27:16
the Veritas orbiter will fly over the planet
01:27:19
and collect data from space, the
01:27:22
20 Plus Poo module will descend through
01:27:25
the atmosphere of Venus to measure its
01:27:27
composition and study clouds, winds and
01:27:30
features of the planet's surface,
01:27:33
the probe will also capture
01:27:35
high-resolution images of the surface of Venus
01:27:37
as it descends, providing
01:27:40
valuable information about the geology and geophysics
01:27:43
of the
01:27:44
[Music]
01:27:46
planet, unfortunately in recent years. 30 years ago
01:27:50
there were few missions to Venus and
01:27:52
funding for
01:27:53
planetary exploration was reduced with new
01:27:56
missions to the cloudy planet after several
01:27:58
cancellations scheduled only for the
01:28:01
2030s, however with each New
01:28:04
Discovery we are closer to
01:28:06
unraveling the processes that shaped
01:28:08
our own planet to Earth Furthermore,
01:28:11
the study of Venus provides
01:28:13
valuable information about exoplanets outside our
01:28:16
solar system as Many exoplanets
01:28:19
are similar to Venus Studying this
01:28:21
planet
01:28:22
could help scientists determine the
01:28:25
potential habitability of other
01:28:37
distant worlds [Music] The recent discovery of
01:28:39
active volcanoes on Venus is just the tip
01:28:41
of the iceberg but it highlights the importance and
01:28:45
complexity of studying and analyzing
01:28:48
large amounts of ancient data,
01:28:50
although this is just one event, the
01:28:53
data may contain other discoveries
01:28:55
waiting to be
01:28:59
revealed, it is important for us to note
01:29:02
that tools for processing and
01:29:03
comparing large amounts of data
01:29:05
like artificial intelligences for
01:29:07
example were not available Until
01:29:10
recently this offers a vast field
01:29:12
for anyone interested in
01:29:14
astronomy or planetary science
01:29:16
to conduct their own research and make
01:29:18
discoveries even without expensive equipment
01:29:21
anyone can contribute to this
01:29:23
field all this From
01:29:27
home, as we contemplate Venus,
01:29:31
we realize that this
01:29:32
extraordinary planet is a reminder that the search
01:29:35
for the unknown is a worthwhile journey
01:29:37
in which, even in the
01:29:40
most adverse conditions, beauty can be
01:29:45
found. Venus invites us to dream
01:29:47
of the stars and the distant planets
01:29:50
that orbit them Quest the unknown and
01:29:53
never stop exploring whether
01:29:56
such a challenging planet can be so fascinating
01:29:58
Imagine what else the universe can hold for us
01:30:02
[Music]
01:30:04
the beauty of Venus is not only
01:30:07
in its landscapes but in its capacity
01:30:10
to inspire us and continue looking to the
01:30:12
sky seeking answers and unlocking the
01:30:16
secrets of the
01:30:20
cosmos
01:30:23
[Music]
01:30:27
the understanding of the formation and evolution of the
01:30:30
Solar System continues to evolve
01:30:33
as astronomers explore
01:30:35
space and collect increasingly
01:30:37
detailed data from nearby celestial bodies and
01:30:43
distant the continued exploration of our
01:30:46
system and other distant planetary systems
01:30:49
has the potential to
01:30:51
provide us with increasingly
01:30:54
deeper insights into the origins and
01:30:56
functioning of the
01:30:59
Cosmos What will the next decade
01:31:02
of space exploration reveal to us
01:31:06
Mars enceladus
01:31:10
triton For sure These worlds hide
01:31:13
incredible things but until then, every
01:31:16
night we have the opportunity to
01:31:18
contemplate at least part of our
01:31:22
solar system,
01:31:31

Confira o último video: ☀️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_lpvTrFGCs Apoie o canal (PIX): 🚀 [email protected] Inscreva-se no canal :) Há cerca de 4,6 bilhões de anos, uma nuvem massiva de gás e poeira, começou a colapsar sob a influência da gravidade. À medida que essa nuvem se contraía, o aumento da temperatura e da pressão no centro resultou na formação do nosso astro rei, o Sol. Ao mesmo tempo, a matéria restante ao redor do Sol em formação começou a se agrupar, criando os protoplanetas e outros corpos celestes que eventualmente se transformariam nos planetas, luas, asteroides e cometas que conhecemos hoje. Os primeiros estágios de formação do sistema solar foram caracterizados por uma intensa atividade de colisões e fusões, à medida que os materiais se juntavam e se consolidavam. Partículas de poeira se fundiram para formar objetos maiores, que, por sua vez, se fundiram para formar protoplanetas. Esses protoplanetas continuaram a crescer por meio de colisões e atração gravitacional, eventualmente se tornando os planetas rochosos internos, Mercúrio, Vênus, Terra e Marte, e os gigantes gasosos mais distantes, Júpiter, Saturno, Urano e Netuno. Ao longo de milhões de anos, o sistema solar passou por um processo de diferenciação, no qual os materiais mais pesados se afundaram em direção ao núcleo dos planetas enquanto os materiais mais leves se elevavam para a superfície. Essa diferenciação resultou na formação de núcleos metálicos nos planetas terrestres e em uma composição mais complexa nos gigantes gasosos. Toda essa dinâmica resultou nesse espetáculo, o sistema solar. E hoje, vamos viajar juntos na segunda parte dessa jornada incrível pelo nosso sistema. Nossa viagem começara nos confins do sistema solar, onde vamos tentar desvendar os segredos de Plutão, ainda nessa região, tentaremos encontrar o famoso planeta nove, e discutir as evidencias que suportam a teoria de um nono planeta no sistema solar, um pouco mais internamente, vamos para encelado, a lua de Saturno, e um dos lugares mais promissores do sistema solar, onde existe a possibilidade de encontrarmos formas de vida simples, e partindo do sistema solar externo diretamente pra nossa vizinhança, passaremos por Vênus, e discutiremos sobre a maior descoberta já feita por lá, que pode mudar tudo o que sabemos sobre o planeta nublado. Nossa viagem começa agora.
