The Earth, the blue planet. An ancient oasis of life suspended in the darkness of space. As rich and life-supporting as the Earth is today, it was once nothing more than a column of dust, dancing inside a scorched cyclone of stellar gas. And just how we as humans managed to emerge from this ancient dust makes up the topic of this video. So join us, as we wind the cosmic clock backwards almost five billion years, from you and I today, all the way back to the birth of the solar System, back to when Earth was nothing more than a burning, barren wasteland.

You Are Here (No Soundtrack)

How did Earth get its moon? Why is Mercury so close to the sun? Why does Uranus orbit on its side? The answers to all of these questions are the many collisions that ravaged the early Solar System.

Each of our neighbouring worlds bears scars which echo their violent past. And in this video, we will examine a number of the most significant collisions, which played a pivotal role in building up the Solar System as we know it today.

Collisions Of The Early Solar System - No Soundtrack

Of all the spacecraft to have visited other worlds, there are two which have travelled further than any other, discovering more about the Solar System than their inventors ever could have imagined. They are the legendary pair of Voyager Probes; still the only spacecraft ever to have visited the Ice Giant planets, Uranus and Neptune. And the story of their 40 years in space makes up the topic of our video today- from the gas giants, to the ice worlds, and then out into the depths of interstellar space...

Merry Christmas everyone, thanks as always for watching my videos and I'll see you in 2024!

The Voyage Beyond the Solar System

Stars come in a wide range of sizes, but how do we calculate a star's size to determine which is the biggest? In this episode of OOTW, we will find out how stars are measured to determine their mind-blowing sizes, and above all, which of them are the largest stars.

The Largest Stars | Stephenson 2-18

No matter where you are, you are always moving. The Earth orbits the sun, and the sun moves round the galaxy. But what is it that makes the galaxy move? That is going to be our topic today. Everything in our local galaxy supercluster, Laniakea, is being dragged towards a very high concentration of mass hidden behind the plane of our galaxy. It has all the ingredients for an epic space mystery, it is the Great Attractor.

The Great Attractor

Earth is a success story, a thriving world that has hosted life for almost 4 billion years. But, no matter how peaceful things may be now, a new age is coming for the Solar System. An age of change, destruction and evolution. A place for new worlds and new stories, but one in which the Earth has no place.

The Final Age of the Solar System

The Solar System is our vast and diverse planetary system, which houses eight large planets, including one which gave rise to life. While humanity was born too late to witness the events that occurred at the birth of the Solar System first-hand, by peering into the systems of others stars, we are starting to piece together the events that unfolded. Today, we will explore the culmination of these decades of research, as we tell the story of the birth of the Solar System.

The Birth Of The Solar System

The Solar System is home to eight main planets, but this is far from the full picture. Hidden beyond the orbit of Neptune are dozens of small, icy worlds, known as Dwarf Planets, or Minor Planets! The best example is Pluto, but there are dozens more orbiting within the same band of material at the outer Solar System. Today, we will visit these frozen, far out worlds first hand.

Dwarf Planets | The Lesser Worlds

The Sun... both the giver of life, and destroyer of worlds. Host of the eight planets, and incubator of Earth with its light and heat. Yet in spite of its brilliance, the true nature of the sun's power remains shrouded in mystery, with scientists unable to explain many of the processes playing out in its atmosphere. But in 2024, NASA will attain their closest glimpse of the sun so far, as they come just five million miles from its surface, diving into the stellar Nether Zone, to "touch" the sun itself.

A Glimpse Of The Sun - No Music

Are we living in a multiverse? If so, where are all the other universes? Scientists and philosophers have pondered these questions for centuries, as they contemplated the possibility of parallel universes. So buckle up, because in this episode, we will take on the biggest question of them all- the question of whether our universe is the only one.
