    When I was a kid, we were always taught about the major planets, but for some reason, their moons were only a side note. It wasn't until I started looking into the Jovian Moons, Saturn's Moons, and unique bodies like Ceres, Pluto, and Charon that I realized that the solar system was FAR more complex than it appears from a simple viewpoint. These moons are absolutely worlds in their own respect. Ganymede itself is literally bigger than Mercury and almost as big as Mars.

    A note for subscribers: Chances are you may have seen the content in this video before. All I've done here is edit the Galilean moons from the "Our Solar System's Moons" series into one video. I removed parts of the intros and outros, removed some repetition (for instance, I don't go into full details about orbital resonances every time) and removed the sponsors for a more seamless viewing experience. This is for people that want to learn about all the Galilean moons in one go, rather than specific ones. Also, about the Io section, I didn't rerecord the narration even though the audio quality isn't super great and back then I didn't pronounce my 'g's, however, this is actually my favourite "old" video of mine and part of the charm in my opinion was the narration, so I kept it. Anyways, enjoy!

    I remember when I was just a kid I knew which light in the night sky was Jupiter, and one night I got out a telescope I had from like Walmart or something, and I looked at it. I could see a tiny yellow dot with four little specks of light sitting around it. It was so cool. Also, can you IMAGINE the view from one of Jupiter's moons? Looking up and seeing that massive planet just sitting there?
  • @sweetiguess
    i loved this extended version... "yes, i do want to listen to info about moons for an hour, thank you."
  • @Bitplex
    Picturing an ocean that is up to 150km deep is mind boggling. Whenever i'm on the highway driving and I pick a point in the distance, I measure out in my mind roughly how many KM away it is, and I picture being on the surface on the ocean, looking all the way down to the "bottom". This already astonishes me, and i'm only doing that with only a few kms in mind.

    Jesus man, you had me glued to the screen, mesmerized. Numerous bits that I never heard of before, stunning visuals and editing. What an amazing content to subscribe to. Please never stop what you're doing.
  • @Chris.Davies
    What you didn't mention is that due to Europa's low gravity, a submarine capable of descending all the way to the rocky subsurface is do-able. It's about the same pressure as at the bottom of the Marianas Trench.
  • @OleOlson
    Don't take this the wrong way, but I've been using this video to fall asleep every night since it was released. It has an ASMR quality to it, and is still a super good science video at the same time.
  • @littlerelief
    The title of this video alone made my heart race... I love the Galilean moons so much that I have a tattoo of an early sketch of Galileo's that shows Jupiter with them all orbiting around it!!
  • This is what great TV om Discovery and NatGeo used to be like. Now it has forever changed. This 4 part video series is amazing and world class. Well done. Some of the best content out here. Really appreciate your efforts to make these!!! I loved this so much and my interest in the inner Jovial moons are at an all time high!!!
  • @raydunakin
    Very interesting subject! The video kept my attention despite being 45 minutes long.
  • @BrettCahill
    I never get bored of learning about these moons, love seeing these combined into 1 video!
  • @DefektiveEnvy
    This is such high quality content. I love thinking about how we’ve sent our senses (and even more powerful senses) far beyond our world to these outer places that we’d never see in such detail. But people have been looking up at them for centuries
  • What an absolutely beautiful and excellently produced production- I found myself over and over through the video rewinding so I could re-hear and PROCESS the data-points and information being presented; this is not a critique but rather an applause of how fascinating and feature-rich this presentation was. Bravo. You have created a subscriber for life! I can't wait to get the time to explore your entire catalog. Amazing, and thank YOU!
  • @dustman96
    Pure excellence. Probably the best documentary on this subject I've ever seen, including high budget documentaries. I'll certainly be recommending this to those who may be interested.

    These videos are saving me. How's that? I have CFS/ME (chronic fatigue). I cannot work and have few productive hours in a day. Its depressing at times, and lonely, hard some days to do basic functions. But I am working on recovery and know in time I can get back to a more normal life again. Its a long process. These videos keep my mind engaged on something other than my predicament. And reminds me the breath and beauty of life and all of creation. Which tells me I too have more to discover in my own life. Like the Gallelleo explorer, some of my parts may be broken and I may miss out of some things I intended for. But still, I can sure get some nice shots in on the way, and still fulfill my purpose and make it a very long way. Thank you to the creators of this channel. 💗 To anyone to needs to hear this: hang in there. There is so much more, things change. They can and will get better in time. Believe in yourself. 🌺
  • @mcwarrington
    This is one of my favourite videos you've produced. Great pacing, fascinating topic, well narrated all through. Thanks for uploading, and best wishes from New Zealand!
  • @pedrororiz9910
    This was a spectacular video. Super informative, fun, easy to watch and well produced piece of information. I guess you've achieved that level of excellence because you love what you do, right? Keep up the great work and I sincerely hope you achieve your goals with this channel.
