in the beginning there was darkness and then then giving birth to an endless expanding existence of time-space now see further than we ever imagined to beyond the limits of our existence in a placement all the universe the vast reaches of space exist objects and phenomena as bizarre as any science fiction writers imagine there's so many Extremes in space that it's really hard for a human being here on planet Earth to imagine a lot of them cast  missing Planet we're getting our own solar system  and clouds filled with the owl Drake  Virginia versus filled with all sorts of bizarre things but it's often the case that the strange phenomena end up teaching us the most about the universe their outlandish unexplainable and unbelievably peculiar take a journey to the strange side so now Milky Way galaxy two remote billions of light-years away space is jam-packed with really weird stuff it's hard to comprehend some of the concepts and things that we find in outer space because they're so profoundly different from life on our own planet  the more we learn the we know so there's a seemingly Limitless supply of strange things about the universe that remains to be discovered universe is filled with objects and all sorts mysterious phenomena that we still don't fully understand  string did Macy astronomers have discovered interstellar clouds actually filled with the same kind of alcohol found in beer just one that's filled with organic molecules and particular with ethyl alcohol  now that of course is the alcohol weaves and so the idea that there could be this huge Cosmic Distillery is kind of a fun idea but in fact that's correct giant molecular clouds are enormous complexes of gas and dust some of them 1000 times the size of our own solar system  their Denson sizable course allow for the formation of complex molecules that can a cosmic cocktail is this Michael Brewer barley water in yeast are used to produce alcohol whereas in interstellar molecular clouds it's dust grains that serve as the key nucleation site simpler molecules like molecular hydrogen water and carbon dioxide to come together and react chemically to form more complex molecules like ethyl alcohol when the dust cranes migrate closer to the center of the molecular cloud they start to approach to the central star that's forming in its core and this heat stop possibly enough to evaporate some of the complex molecules like of alcohol off and into Interstellar space phone number thank you so just what's microbrewery the dust grains in interstellar molecular clouds serve as meeting places where lonely molecules can form more complex molecules the first alcohol Cloud was detected in 1975 since then many more of these truly space clouds have been observed the cloud G 34.3 which resides in the constellation Aquila is 1000 what's the diameter of our solar system in fact in g34 point alcohol to supply 300,000 pints of beer everyday to every single person on planet Earth for the next billion years  everyone the only downside is that it would probably give you a pretty bad headache because it's also mixed in with hydrogen cyanide carbon monoxide carbon dioxide now and some Carly other not-so-nice chemical  they may seem like inebriated clouds drifting aimlessly in space get is unbelievable as it may sound these clouds eventually for multiple star systems  planets and maybe even life  the outer edges of  these Frozen dust screens with their complex molecules still remain intact in fact we know them today as promised  and it's thought that these comments may be responsible for bringing some of these more his molecules into the inner solar system and affect the name of seeded our own planet with these molecules which are building blocks of things like amino acids play for life  our Sun and Earth were formed out of an Interstellar Cloud much like this cloud and if you what's the right ingredients the right organic ingredients you've got the right ingredients for life  ABC really weird that there's this giant cloud of alcohol putting through space things that I love is how common organic molecules alcohol being one of them is throughout the galaxies and the universe playing the pantry where the pulverized the earth into Power that's basically what an Interstellar cloud is like all the chemicals that make a stop alcohol leading clowns knee of help to sow the seeds of life on Earth get as incredible as it may sound life itself the actual existed other types of truly weird clouds Venus the second planet from our sun as a hot hellish surface yet strangely it's clouds which harbor at an altitude of around 30 miles their temperatures that maybe have it will for the temperatures are roughly the same as Earth's surface the atmospheric pressure is about the same as as Earth's surface can save life can exist here on Earth perhaps it can exist in similar conditions on Venus  if life does exist in the Clouds of Venus we get there in the first place it's not that the atmosphere of Venus is the product of what's called a runaway greenhouse effect outside causes the temperature to rise at the surface which if there were any liquid oceans of water on Venus they would have eventually boiled away and escaped in then it may have migrated up to the upper more hospitable layers of the atmosphere as we know it needs water  the clouds of Venus contain water in the form of concentrated sulfuric acid here on earth scientists found organisms called extremophiles that thrive in similar acidic liquids such is the hot springs Yellowstone National Park  so some have speculated that organisms could survive in the Clouds of Venus and they may have false ways of making use of available ultraviolet light much like plants use visible light for photosynthesis you have a lot of chemistry the cloud you got so fersan you've gotten hydrogen and other elements that are needed to Harbor life and to sustain life those abundant at those altitudes so it's not inconceivable that life could survive or exist in in the cloud layers of Venus what does it to test whether life could exist in the Clouds of Venus is to examine the clouds above Earth measurements here on Earth for example capturing particles of cloud and examining them in the lab and shown that very small organisms and bacteria can actually survive disorder floating through the atmosphere  been caught up on updrafts and discuss the wind perhaps survive in the atmosphere for long periods of time as an analogy the same type of behavior might be occurring on Venus so there were life in the van that was feared might just be kind of living along for long periods of time  NASA May one day send a mission to Venus to find out if there's life and it's outs  but right now scientists are keenly interested to learn whether another truly peculiar Planet exists in our solar system Prius planet that has yet to be discovered planet is a hypothetical planet that may exist Beyond Neptune Planet X is sort of a generic Nation for an unknown Planet that's somewhere in the outer solar system that remains to be discovered astronomers began to speculate there might be a missing Planet when observing the Kuiper belt what I see rocks beyond the orbit of Neptune the outer edge of the Kuiper belt is called Piper Cliff because the density of space rocks drop sauce deeply here this could be caused by Neptune's gravitational pull or buy an unknown Planet hypothesis for the drop-off in Kuiper Belt objects that we see after about 50 or 55 astronomical units is there is a planet lurking out there somewhere which could be going to hurting them inside of that region scientist of Wonder for decades how many planets our solar system Harbors is there really a Planet X originally Pluto and that was discovered was designated as Planet X more recently they've been discoveries of other Kuiper Belt objects things like Chris said no for example that have been assigned the designation planted act it still remains to be the discovery of a very large object in the Deep solar system so sort of steal this idea that ain't Planet x-ray mysterious hidden planet is out in the solar system somewhere scientist maysoun solve the mystery of the so-called Kuiper cliff  if a Planet X really exists these Cosmic sleuth will find it  we think that we should be able to learn whether or not there really is such a planet relatively soon with a new generation large-scale surveys that are going to detect anything out there  Clinic smear me not exist  but there are other planets that have been observed far off in space that are true out of this world our solar system some pretty unusual planets but we're not alone sophisticated tell us have now identified nearly 300 planets that are located will beyond our solar system they're known as planets  the most peculiar exoplanets are Pulsar planets unlike most adorablest I like our sun these planets orbit of fast spinning neutron star called a pulsar which emits a pulsing radio admission much like a lighthouse in the 1990s scientists actually discovered a trio a pulsar planets about 900 light years away need to do the constellation Virgo and these planets are all close in to the Pulsar now that's no place for a planet to exist nobody expected to find planets around these things because a pulsar or neutron star is the range of a supernova explosion  the star has ripped itself apart and one of the most violent chaotic snowing in the universe next time there was a real surprise there are are these planets and two of them are about four times the mass of the earth and the third planet is about twice the mass of Earth's moon so very small planets indeed in fact the orbit so close to their neutron star primary that they could actually fit within the orbit of mercury so they're very close in the enduring question is how these planets survive the Supernova event at all get the same thing happen to our sun the planets in the inner solar system would have been vaporized if those planets that we see where they're at the time of the Supernova I'll mace reminded that they certainly would extinguish any life that might have been on those planets there's no hope for that just the power in the energy in the radiation environment of the Supernova make it pretty lethal to anything you three plan word orbiting the star the time of the Super Nova explosion then how did they get there  maybe these weird Pulsar planets form from the debris surrounding the Supernova exploding star maybe there was a disk of material that would Trot out but it didn't quite escape and it left a disc of debris how much planets then form we don't really know how these weird Pulsar planets form they challenge all theories so far Pulsar planets should startling new insight into the formation of solar systems throughout the Universe all star planets formed after the Supernova explosion dream unexpected environment  maybe you don't need something quite as orderly as the gas that formed our own planetary that's really cool but if the planets were there before they ocean and remain bound to the star that's an interesting challenge to Theory as well because it shows that somehow planets can remain Bound in some Pulsar planets are Oddities but the neutron are Pulsar Stars they orbit are also quite bizarre neutron star material is incredibly get us a very high mass per unit volume in fact it's as dense as an atomic nucleus so if I had a shovel full of sand and this were actually new star material as much as Mount Whitney in this VR Nevada reined California would have as much mass as a mountain and a bucket full of neutron-star material would weigh as much as Mount Everest the biggest mountain on earth now I can lift bucket of sand quite easily this word Acme neutron-star material there's no way I could lift Mount Everest that shows how incredibly dense neutron-star material really is there are two types of neutron stars pulsars that spin rapidly and admit beeping radio pulses  and magnetized that's been slower and the energy from magnetism Meg guitars which are much rarer than pulsars have the strongest magnetic fields what is the universe  there aren't any places on Earth where the you can find that feels a strong as you find them in a magnet are but was kind of a parallel with this Tesla coil the Tesla coil is originally experimented with by Nicholas level was trying to figure out how to provide electricity without having to wire holes but actually provide electricity through the air  the Tesla coil has sing Bolton ship and spent half a million volts between the ball and the middle and the cage that surrounds it and that Gap inside release of energy that when the electrons fly through the where is releases a tremendous amount of energy that you see in those far is kind of the same thing it's a release of energy that you see in gamma rays and x-rays Mana tours and release gigantic bursts of energy not in the periodic way Pulsar but rather serve at random something happens to the crust Like a Star Quest  and a bunch of magnetic fields come are there and release a tremendous amount of energy which gets turned into X-rays and gamma rays  magnetars and pulsars stream Starz with scientists have discovered something even more bizarre VyStar that just like a pulsar and a magnetar  NASA's Rossi x-ray timing Explorer has observed this unusual star injecting 5 colossal out burst of energy in the form of flares which are characteristic of magnetized the occurred five times between May and July of to Supply  which player lasted less than a second but released energy equivalent to tens of thousands of suns there's been one case of a pulsar which went through several magnetar like outbursts that require this much stronger magnet field and some sort of a restructuring of the magnetic field it suddenly releases a lot more energy than a normal pulsar I have at least one case of a link or a missing link between pulsars and magnet ours a pulsar that later showed some what are phenomena  the Pulsar magnetar combo star is fairly young less than 900 years old so astronomers think neutron stars May begin their lives as magnet ours then settle down and become pulsars but could be that many neutron stars that eventually become normal pulse cars actually go through magnetar like outbursts when they're very young just a few hundred years old or a thousand years old that could be the critical link or sing this one when it's much younger than most pulsars that we see  someone usual Stars exist in the car but there is equally odd small stuff in space and recently scientist how's the mystery surrounding one of the most elusive things in the entire universe a ghostly particle that passes through us every second of every day the universe lays claim to infinite numbers of abnormal plan and stars  the same time they're equally strange small things in space human beings and most of the universe are made up of normal matter  which primarily consists of for fun two particles, what is a ghost light particle called a neutrino neutrinos would be my vote for some of the it's normal matter in the universe at this very moment every second there are 50 trillion neutrinos actually coming from the Sun that are pass turn my body and their other neutrinos from other stars coming in different directions right through the Earth these things by the trillions are pouring into me every second but we're completely out where is the don't really interact with us at all  there's a fun little particle called a neutrino Italian for little neutral one raspberry little maths very small amount of matter nothing but it has energy in its space at close to the speed of light Visa are so not interactive but if you imagine a light-year thickness of lab and you shined of beam of neutrinos poured it half of those me those with make it through that light your thickness of LED completely unscathed petrino's most commonly formed by nuclear reactions inside Stars including our sun about 60 billion solar those past two are thumbnails every second  but there are other sources to create neutrinos  are produced by nuclear reactors there's some being produced by the radioactive decay of elements in the rock around assault are there others that are actually produced when cosmic rays slam into our atmosphere and thank hit the atmosphere curly with the force of a 100 Mi an hour fastball that's number those were released into the universe immediately after the big bang along with other particles and Light are the descendants of the primordial soup neutrinos are unusual small Jets but there are equally out of the ordinary big things asteroids of the rocky leftovers from the formation of the solar system space rocks primarily within the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars among the billions that inhabit the asteroid belt there's one asteroid that's truly eccentric  what are the strangest asteroids this one called toutatis and I guess catches our attention on because it's it's not perfectly round kind of misshapen it sort of looks like I love down here and then and then another ball shut up strange rotational. Where it's the sort of tumbling kind of like a badly thrown football it's not spinning along any of its primary accys it's actually sort of spinning along all three tumbling through space to Tartus also has a highly elliptical orbit which carries it from the asteroid belt to inside the Earth's orbit Earth Crossing asteroid and that puts it in the dangers when is something that could potentially strike  September of 2004 to Titus got too close for comfort the asteroid came within a million miles or about four times the distance to our moon  no that's really close for an asteroid especially for one that big set where to crash into Earth it would not slow down one bit by atmosphere it would really smack us and be very devastating to her the next near passage is until about the 26th Century so hundreds of years away so we're in good shape to keep it to Titus is an irregular asteroid but there are much bigger and stranger Cosmic bodies that roam the universe a moon also known as a satellite is a Celestial body that orbits a planet or a small project such as a dwarf planet or asteroid  about 240 Moon's exist in our solar system alone and yes Bruce moon is the only satellite in the solar system that perfectly eclipses the Sun but one of the most curious Moon's belongs to a gas giant planet in our solar system Miranda one of your innocence is really a weird mood it's very small it's only about 290 miles across so it would tuck me in this order New York to Washington for Rider but it is completely you note Miranda is bending the Frankenstein Moon of our solar system because of its haphazard surface canyons and flows and cracks and it looks like it's just been through the rare you know that it's been through something it's only 290 miles across it has considered you know by comparison the Grand Canyon is about 280 miles long a mile deep or thereabouts what makes Miranda one of the strangest moons in the solar system is that it looks as though it were it was assembled from the leftover bits are the moons and planets cutting dual nature about the surface of that certain regions that appear very flat and another locations that are very dynamic  Miranda puzzles astronomers because they don't know exactly how sport  one Theory suggests that billions of years ago the Tiny Moon may have been involved in a cosmopolitan impact soy mix they broke into many I see in Rocky pieces these pieces could have mailed it back together in a pause light and dark patterns and shapes but an alternative hypothesis suggest Miranda surface is the result of faulting with enormous stresses build and push large Rock masses beyond their living it's much like what has happened here on Earth Vasquez Rocks here in in Southern California what we see is the result of two plates on Earth surf better serve pushing against each other imparting a large amount of stress  in order to relieve that stress regenerating folding and buckling of the sea and I Kansas these dramatic spires that we see all around a similar type of action is occurring on Miranda where you have enormous amounts of stress on the surface that are causing buckling and folding of the Miranda surface generating the peeps and scarps that we see there Beretta he's just one of millions of unexplainable objects that make up our Milky Way galaxy  get our galaxy isn't the strangest the universe there are others that give new meaning to the words strange galaxies their Celestial neighborhoods made up of planets Stars gas and dust at least 100 billion of them exist in the observable universe but many astronomers think the most bizarre galaxies are Ultra luminous infrared galaxies also known as you lyrics when looking at them in the infrared light they are 100 times brighter than normal galaxies  so they are among the most luminous in the U enormous amounts of energy being put out by these Ultra luminous and Ford Galaxies are the result burst of star formation now Galaxy about one new star the size of our son is born every year but in you about a hundred new stars are formed yearly  stars are formed out of interstellar gas and they're surrounded by so you can't really see the stars forming but all of that energy heats up the dust which in turn glows and infrared light so you're saying energy of all of these generations of stars being absorbed and radiated and infrared from the dust in these galaxies lower the galaxies but the Shroud itself is blowing really really brightly Rex were first discovered in the early 1980s when the infrared astronomical satellite known as IRS picked up galaxies that are extremely bright infrared wavelengths a trillion times more powerful than our sun what are the most luminous You lyrics has been identified as F 15307 + 32252 dislocated 7 billion light year away in the constellation bootes  the numbers in those names refer to the direction the coordinates in the sky where you can find the object this one is very bright very relatively speaking distant and is a very exciting find because there's so much star formation going on understand why is that the case what triggered this enormous amount of star formation that we're saying one hypothesis has been that these galaxies are very active because they're the product of either mergers or near misses with other galaxies  when one Galaxy houses close by another or actually hits it you can have compression of a large amount of gas which can set off huge waves and star formation can very patiently funnel gas into the central black hole causing a lot of heat to be produced in the surrounding accretion disk but this is still an active area of research right exactly why this process happens to make these unusual galaxies super Mass black holes have been detected in the center is ultra luminous infrared galaxies deer regions of space where gravity is so strong that nothing can not even light  but there's an even stranger breed of black holes that may also exist miniature black holes are hypothetical objects smaller than Atomic nuclei unlike their Stellar mass and supermassive black hole mini black holes have never been observed but many scientists believe that they do exist muscles are probably nothing unusual there's probably one right here in from a news right now and one here and one here with all this around and buy them mini black holes might be primordial leftovers from The Big Bang  the explosion could squeeze concentrations of matter form black holes too small to be seen with a microscope  and the smaller the black hole the faster it was see if you had a little any black hole like the massive amount that was created shortly after the big bang then write it out now 14 billion years later it will it evaporate much that the remaining stuff will evaporate in a colossal explosion scientist made prove many black holes Exist by manufacturing them temporarily here on Earth in Switzerland scientist the Large Hadron Collider it's a particle accelerator hopefully capable of slamming subatomic particles together to replicate the energies that exist less than a second after the big bang  bar tape on collider is going to be able to shoot particles very fast and each other and fruit instant there will be a lot of mass at tiny little bit of space and won't you succeeding open Opera Mini black holes  Tunisian idea bran the Virgin paid to make art troll tiny black holes in the laboratory  this Large Hadron Collider really does produce miniature black holes it'll also be Play exciting because it'll show that miniature black holes really do exist or can't exist and are not just a figment of the theoretical imagination the mini black holes that the Large Hadron Collider make reduce will last an instant before disappearing  and if successful the experiment they also reveal secrets about another puzzling phenomenon in the universe a matter that's completely invisible to find this Phantom matter scientist had to look no further than our own Galactic neighborhood the Milky Way strange as it may seem planets Stars moons and galaxies make up less than 20% of all matter in the universe the rest is made up of Dark Matter a form of matter we can't see but everywhere Dark Matter was first stand for early 1930s but very few scientists bought the concept of the time but in the past two decades the evidence for this invisible for put on has become overwhelming  up against a map the Milky Way galaxy they noticed that the Stars at the very edge removing so they should have actually flown off the Galaxy but they're not there they're being held together by something invisible something that's adding more attractive Force to the foxy more gravity but we have no idea what this could be  it's kind of a strange that a lot of the universe we can't even see when to text dark matter because it interacts gravitationally with mass that we do see galaxies spin faster than they should counting up the amount of grout is that you can see from the matter they have  and if that gravitational attraction with the hot gas would disperse so we know there is more gravity then we can account for by the mass that we see and that is just simply called dark matter  one message raise your dark matter they still look at hot and gas and how is contained by the gravity president another way you can still look at something called gravitational lensing the gravitational lensing is caused when you see a distant galaxies behind a foreground Galaxy and the light from the distant one is bent as it goes around the near Galaxy that's coming on idea action Vending in Allen's it's really just formed by space itself gravity makes that Distortion space so we know who these Jordan Galaxy so we can see and we estimated with a mass in the center should have been to make those distortions it was gigantic 10 times more than the mask we song so we were observing a collection of dark matter  Dark Matter May constitute most of the mass in space but the majority of energy in the universe comes from yet another invisible phenomenon called dark energy it's a theoretical form of energy that exists everywhere and accounts for 70% of all mass and energy in the universe  probably the weirdest thing that is the least understood thing in the universe is the stuff Dark Energy dark energy for example doesn't have all that much to do with dark matter they're different things the dark really means we just don't know what's going on Dark Energy was first observed in 1998 when measurements of Faraway exploding stars were used to determine the distances of galaxies those these were found to be farther away than expected in the universe that slowing down with time  the astronomers that's concluded that the universe is actual standing more quickly with Time and Dark Energy may be the culprit the universe is filled with this repulsive dark energy it's really weird stuff that's causing the expansion of the universe to speed up with time to accelerate so it's going like that go faster and faster that was really weird when it was found you know it was not anticipated  it appears at least to us this time that's even more of the universe is made up of dark energy which is some substance it's dark it doesn't shine we can't see it but it's too speed the expansion of the universe merman Antigravity normal matter and energy tend to slow down the rate at which things are going away from each other because Normal thanks pull on one another gravitationally but Dark Energy appears to accelerate the rate at which other one Theory suggests the dark energy will accelerate the expansion of space to such an extent that the entire universe will be ripped to shreds in about billion years if that's the case then eventually not only will galaxies apart from one another will get ripped apart as the Stars away from one another atoms and subatomic particles will get ripped apart the universe is full of odd and interesting things with the most peculiar thing in the universe may exist in our own backyard strangest thing in my opinion in the universe is Earth what a crazy place this is a rocky planet star with all this green stuff that takes sunlight and turns it into food strange but to others there's no particular peculiar cuz it's home I say the strangest things in outer space are human beings we're definitely unusual and we haven't found any other beings like us yet in the universe although that's not to say that they are out there but we're pretty strange
