Presumably because the prom king of the Planetary Science Institute has to look the part, this is a video of some guy getting a very impressive hair coloring of a solar system as executed by New York City based hairstylist Cassie Carey. Now that, that is a look. One that
Gravity: I wish it wasn’t so strong on earth. But only for me, I wish it was doubly strong for everyone else. But enough daydreaming about me leapfrogging over everyone all day, this is a visualization created by planetary space scientist James O’Donoghue comparing the gravity on various bodies of
This is another size comparison video from MetaBallStudios (previously), this time comparing the size of various fictional planets found in popular culture from smallest to largest diameter. And also to things that actually exist in reality, like “New York City, Earth, the Earth’s moon, other planets in our solar system,
This is an incredible video just released by NASA of the Perseverance Rover’s touchdown on the Martian surface via Sky Crane (a crane that holds itself aloft via rockets while it lowers its payload to the ground). Some more details while I speculate where they actually filmed this in Arizona:
Seen here at the site of what is unquestionably a UFO crash, these are two videos created using still images sent to earth from various Mars rovers, all rendered in stunning 4K resolution. Crazy, right? It’s wild to think in our lifetime that we might actually have humans living on
This is a very worthwhile video of the first ‘footage’ of Mars rendered in 4K resolution, using composite images captured by Mars rovers Spirit and Curiosity to create panoramas of the red planet. It is really something. SOMETHING FULL OF ALIENS. Quick, toss me my laser blaster! *fumbles with blaster,
This is a video created by Dr James O’Donoghue of the relative sidereal rotation periods of planets in 2-D. Sidereal meaning relative to background stars, of course. “Of course.” As you can see– “Uranus is backwards.” Like a front-butt? I don’t think so. No, what I was going to say
