This is the "How Far Away Is It" video book channel.
It is a video book of Hubble and other Space and ground based Telescope pictures together with an illustrated explanation of how we know how far away these objects are - from your back yard to the most distant galaxies.
See how:
Triangulation can take us across the globe
Parallax can take us across the solar system
Standard candles can take us across the Milky Way
Red-shift can take us across the universe.
The video book contains three chapters: The Solar System; The Milky Way; and Galaxies.
A Distance Ladder foundation is built in segments 2 (The Earth) through 6 (Distant Stars).
The amazing celestial object photography begins with segment 7 ( Planetary Nebula). Many viewers may want to start there. Students, new to Astronomy, should start from the beginning.
There is also a preface and a segment on credits with websites identified that can be used for further research by interested viewers.

In this segment of the “How Fast Is It” video book, we cover Gravitational Waves. We examine just what a ‘ripple in space-time’ is. We’ll cover the wave properties and how they contract objects it encounters. We’ll examine binary star systems and the waves they create. This includes the properties of the binary encoded in the created gravitational wave including luminosity distance. We’ll use stars the size and mass of our Sun to calculate the expected amplitude and wavelength magnitudes. We’ll move from normal stars to neutron stars to stellar mass black holes. Along that progression, we’ll see their signature waveforms and build the gravitational wave sensitivity graph. We’ll cover the Hulse-Taylor pulsar (PSR B1913+16) and how it provided indirect evidence for the existence of gravitational waves. We’ll then cover direct detection with Michelson Interferometers. We’ll cover the LIGO technology and sensitivity and then examine the first detection event, and show how it fit the waveform and magnitudes for merging stellar black holes. We’ll include a look at the future of gravitational wave observatories. We’ll finish by covering the nature of gravitational waves created during the Big Bang and how they might be detected today.

Thank you for sharing this amazing information David.... we appreciate your work a lot 🎉🎉
10:57 🤯 Never considered dark matter's relation to black holes until just now
Thank you! I always knew what microdosing was. Now I know what microlensing actually is.
Amazing video!
the collapsing waveform looks exactly like a bass drum hit, only in reverse
c
18:55 What are the indications that the galaxies are interacting other than the filament? Why isnt it possible that the filament is just a structure of the foreground galaxy and wasn't caused by any interaction?
We have seen millions of galaxies and none of them have such a structure when they are not near another galaxy.
If a Proton were to look at us, it would see us stopped in time. A Proton travels so fast that we would appear to be frozen. It could observe us, but couldn't grasp anything about our universe other than there appears to be movement. The same way we look at these galaxies and see effects of motion but they appear frozen . We are the protons of some grander Universe.
With reference to the muon example for length contraction, if the earth is in motion wrt the muon, the earth may appear contracted, but why should the space between the muon and earth contract?
There is no space contraction or time dilation in an object's own frame of reference. It only shows up from another frame of reference's point of view.
Why cheat about the title. The video is also interesting without cheating. The title announces the speed of gravitaltional waves but the whole video says nothing abiut the speed. So why cheat?
'How Fast Is It' is a video book with multiple chapters. I name the book, then the chapter number, and the the chapter name. So, if you put your mind to it, you can see that you are watching chapter 8 in the video book 'How Fast Is It'. The name of the chapter is 'Gravitational Waves'. You don't even have to cheat to figure it out.
@@howfarawayisit then why is there nothing about the speed of gravitational waves? Do you realize how much waste of time it is, if everyone makes fancy titles to get their viewers to watch it from beginning to end and then find out, it was just a click bait. I would not expect click bait from scientist.
@@maxtabmann6701 After over 35 million hits across all my video book videos as named like this one, you are the only one to get confused. Max, I guess we've learned as much from each other as is possible.
@@howfarawayisit If I would make a video about the speed of gravity, I would start with, what brought Einstein to conclude that gavitational waves also propagate with c, then I would append the question, why gravitational waves are transversal although the direction of the force is longitudinal. Whether it is only a geometrical effect due to the sources? Then I would adress the question how to confirm the theoretical results with experimental measurements, what are the tricky aspects of such a measurement? And finally I would lists the groups who did such a measurement and what they obtained. I suppose, that is what 99% of the viewers would expect.
Enjoyed this very much.
So what are some proposed causes of the lack of gravitational interaction? They would both seem to be deficient of dark matter
You are a great educator 👨🏫
David you dont have to redo stuff in better/higer qualliity..your old stuff is still gold...i rather get more stuff from you then you redo stuff...youre awesome and i have learned a lot...all the best from Denmark
You are wonderful, thsnks!
Thank You Mr.Butler!
Brilliant. Thank you. I get it.
We have a legislative physics represented by a numerical language. In that omits a wave medium.
He should partner with Kahn academy
Dude I can't listen to this with the noise gate set that high on top of staticky raw audio 😅 Noise gate should probably be around several or so decibels below your natural vocal register. Don't try to fix a bad mic of anything just speak much louder and closer than normal, set the gain a bit up to boost signal to noise so you can gate below your vocal register and still cut most of the audible static hiss. Some easy midhigh eq then done
OK, then don't listen, just look at the moving pictures.
Have a question that I hope you can answer, when two black holes merge why isn't there a big explosion like when 2 Neutron stars merge!💞
You are awesome…Love you’re Channel! 🌼🌸🌼
My understanding was always that if you stretch or squeeze space with a gravitational wave, also the frame of reference is stretched or squeezed. And as the speed of light is measured in m/s it adapts to the stretch or speed as well. So you can't notice the stretch or squeeze at all from inside the stretched or squeezed space. But it seems light is not affected by this stretch or squeeze. So you can use the speed of light as an objective measurement. But would this not mean that the speed of light is, from the point of view of a person within the stretched or squeezed space, too high? Higher than the speed of light in vacuum should be? Have to squeeze this into my mind now.
Yeah 😊
Long time no see! Great to see you´re still releasing more content! Keep it up Professor!
So interesting, only 175k subs,,, and all kinds of nonsesne have over 1 mil, sad world these days. Keep up the great work please Sir.
Cant wait to watch this tonight
Amazing show boss
Thx Mr. Butler
I gave you 1000th like :D
I love these, thank you so much. I have watched these so many times I have learned a ton!
Detectable gravitational waves are perturbations in the ether typically caused by collisions between superdense masses What is the medium (the “ether”?) through which the perturbations are resonating in interstellar space and are there mediator of force particles involved (gravitons?)? Is it waves of gravitons that are being detected by the detectors? Is there a universal Gravity field somewhat conceptually similar to the Higgs field? Is it the SGWB? Does the SGWB constitute a universal field through which detectable gravity waves are traveling? I don’t have the math to understand if the answers to my questions were very clearly expressed in the equations provided, I’m afraid. I hope that I haven’t asked questions, the answers to which, should have been obvious to any literate adult who watched the film. Here’s me asking questions hoping that I’ll receive brief explanations 😊
Your first sentence isn't a question. It is a statement. And according to modern physics, it is incorrect. it might help if you stared with the first chapter of the video book and work your way here. You can find the path on howfarawayisit.com
@@howfarawayisit Thank you. I will. The poorly expressed statement at the beginning of my post was meant to explain the incorrect understanding which formed the basis for the uninformed questions that followed. Thank you for the link.
Always the clearest explanations of physics, David. Bravo 👏. I can’t wait to play your videos for my grandkids.
Without having in a wonderland, it's hard to believe what's said here, physically incomprehensible.
I just love this channel. Thank you for all your hard work it is so appreciated
what you are showibg is not possible.
Hello Mr. David! I wanted to thank you for continuing to make these videos for such a long time. I have come a long way in my quest to learn more about the universe and I simply wanted to thank you for being a part of my journey and show appreciation for all of your work that we learned from. What started a few years ago with a simple question has now become a lifelong obsession, and I would be grateful to continue learning from your videos for years to come. I hope you are in great health, its been a pleasure seeing your video pop up after a while. My sincerest regards Mr. David!
$10 Billion of our tax dollars…I’m enjoying every second! Thank you for sharing what we paid for🙏
❤❤👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩🥇🥇🥇
So spacetime is just the Ether? It seems to behave like a fluid in so many ways.
Is there anything to learn at the extreme limit? Eg take two objects 10^10 bigger than the most massive known objects and accelerate them to 0.99c…what would happen? Would it almost “tear” space-time? When you list “big bang” on the graph…what is this equivalent to? Eg size of galaxies compressed to 1/6 the size of earth at a distance of 5m??
6:00 what does it mean the it carries momentum AND energy away? What does it mean to remove only momentum from a system?
Loss of momentum includes a loss of energy.
@@howfarawayisit thank you for replying. In my simple, non-physics mind systems have energy and as a consequence of moving they have momentum. Your statement seems to say that you add energy + momentum to arrive at the total (?energy) of the system. I have since looked up momentum and had to dig a bit to find an answer that would solve this puzzle. on stackexchange someone stated that according to Einstein E^2 = (mc^2)^2 + p^2c^2… so that is the essential source of my confusion because its only ever been E=mc^2 for me…also if people google momentum… the first thing that comes up is that it is a product of the mass and velocity. I dont think this definition resolves the confusion I have around (E,p) being two separate quantities being removed from the system because v x m seems a lot like what ai conceive energy to be…The only way I can logically make sense of it, is that E=mc2 works for things at rest and if things are moving you need to add momentum. Even now I am still confused bc the total energy in the system must include the contribution from momentum…does the lost momentum create the gravitational wave? Is mass lost and converted to energy and/or gravitational waves or is it all from the momentum? By the way- my comments are meant to let you know what the average but interested person doesnt intuitively understand around the grammar of physics…
@@redsix5165 E^2 = mc^2 + p^2c^2 is indeed the operative equation. Also, p = mv so we can write E^2 = mc^2 + (mv)^2c^2. A loos in mass and or a loss in velocity will trigger the release of energy.
Such a nice video! I cant believe the amount of energy they release! I do think that these kind of videos need to explain terms. Eg why call it a gravitational wave? Our sense of gravity is a pulling not a distortion of space itself…I wish you would also explain the idea behind Einsteins theory that accelerating massive objects create these waves…what is the idea there? TY!
This is chapter 8 in a series called 'How fast Is It'. It is organized for you on the howfarawayisit.com website. I recommend that you start from the first chapter 'The Speed of Light''.
but first... RAID SHADOW LEGENDS
Please let me know what is the music at the start of the chip
The music is identified in the notes under the video.
Thank you for this mesmerizing and fascinating presentation of the material. Absolutely a great achievement.
Gravity is not a wave it's like pulling on a rope and not sending a wave down the rope. The planets follow where the sun is now, not where it was when the light hit it. Earth would be following where the sun was 8 minutes ago. Uranus would be following where the sun was 2 hours 40 minutes ago.
Your are correct that 'gravity' is not a wave. But a 'gravitational wave' is a wave.
I absolutely love these presentations! Question; at 26:27, "When a gravitational wave passes through the interferometer, and the distance along the arms are shortened and lengthened, causing the beams to be slightly out of sync." Wouldn't the wavelength of light scale up and down with the expansion and contraction of space/time? Or is the expansion and contraction confined to a single axis?
The wavelength of the light deviations would be too small to have an impact on the detector.
