## Notes - Respected by Nick Milo - Recommended by steven, watching it while on shrooms sounds huge lol - Wonder how I can implement similar elements of awe - Take a step back and a deep breath in… - what you're entering is the digital universe - Didn't realize kurzegast would be a good inspiration for me too oops ## Highlights ### 1 - pulsars last after supernova, spin and inferred to maybe be an interstellar lighthouse lol - stellar nursery is where stars are born - way he's framing alexandria and aestosthenes makes me interested in learning about history for this reason - so many inventions during this time, mimics atelier and other creative groups? - interesting hzow there was already a mix of space and knowledge in the first episode, probably naturally salient for nick to explore PKM - crazy how the framing is with the cosmic calendar, one minute = 30,000 years - specifics - 10:30pm is the start of our evoltuion holy fk - the scale at which we view history is so small, past 10 seconds, 300,000 years… really illuminates the scale and importance of the galaxy, further advocating for appreciating this privilege through action and wisdom - Stellaris ### 2 - exploring the world is the search for who we are - I like his shots where he looks out of his spaceship, should have a view like that hmm - there's no way this story led up to just the idea of natural selection, that's a crazy story though i love his humor through pointing out of that lmao - i thought an asteroid killed the dinosaurs? it's actually scary to think about the mass extinction and how we managed to be alive now - Biology is closer to history than physics because we are still not yet capable of predicting its complexities. wow - the way he phrases things for the final takeaway in the update, *it seems like comets are the bringers of life and death* - carl sagan and the cosmos has been such a treat to watch. although i find myself distracted, the way he presents the information and the way he navigates you through this journey is what i want to emulate when doing my solar system video (but being in the environment would be so much work wlep)
