ASMR-ish What You Need to Know About Astronomy: The Solar System [1/16]

Welcome to or back to this channel 🤍🤍 I’m Leesie. I like making ASMR videos to help people sleep and/or unwind and relax! Hello dolls, I am excited to announce I am doing a series called What You Need to Know About Astronomy! That’s a long name so I will just call it My Crash Course in the videos :) I hope you enjoy! Let me give you a basic tour of the solar system! [1/16] My credentials if you are interested: Passed both college physics and chemistry Astronomy courses at UC Berkeley 2 years working with PhD students and graduates at the University of Arizona at Mount Lemmon and Mount Graham Founded a small club for astronomy and physics East Bay Astronomical Society member It’s my passion project🩷 Here are some facts I promised you all: Mercury has a day of 176 Earth days, not 59 as I said := 1,300 Earths can fit into Jupiter; 1,000 Jupiters can fit into the sun Uranus has a tilt of approx. 98°, we think due to an ancient collision when it was still forming The Kuiper Belt is believed to be the origin of short period comets; it extends for approx. 2.99 billion km! The great red spot on Jupiter is shrinking at the moment Neptune was discovered due to mathematical calculations of its assumed position because of fluctuations in the orbit of Uranus in 1846 The Kuiper Belt is named after Dutch- American astronomer Gerard Kuiper Pluto is the largest discovered body in the Kuiper Belt, followed by Eris The Oort Cloud is named after Dutch astronomer Jan Oort; another potential source of long period comets Work email *for work only*: [email protected] 2nd channel: the astro dork Disclaimer: ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) is made for entertainment purposes and is not a replacement for treatment of insomnia, anxiety, depression, or any other medical condition.
