Journey to the Centre of the Milky Way Short Fulldome Planetarium Show
What lies at the heart of our galaxy? For twenty years, ESO’s Very Large Telescope and the Keck telescopes have observed the centre of the Galaxy, looking at the motion of more than a hundred stars and identifying the position of an otherwise invisible object - the supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy.
![](www.eso.org/public/archives/el...)
Embark on a Journey to the Centre of the Milky Way and during seven minutes travel faster than light, from the driest place on Earth, the Atacama Desert in Chile right to the centre of our own galaxy, where a black hole is consuming anything that strays into its path. 84 million stars will appear in front of your eyes, each hiding mysteries waiting to be solved. Are there planets around them, perhaps with moons? Do they have water? Could they harbour life?
Journey to the Centre of the Milky Way is the first fulldome planetarium mini-show produced in-house by ESO for its Planetarium and Visitor Centre, the ESO Supernova, due to open in spring 2018. Available for free in 4k resolution, the mini-show can be downloaded and used by any planetarium in the world. More free fulldome clips are here.

I hope people appreciate just how epic this is. Close to 7 minutes showing some of the most important information of all time.... legendary.
Well done sir. Soon as I saw this title I expected the first comment to be about the view and history
That is not the most important information of all time. Even the whole Galaxy is not important at all. The most important is to manage not to kill ourselves and the Earth completely ...
@@michalkorecky9935 "some of the most important information of all time"
Wow that's why I love the wonders of the universe. There's so much to know when you look up at the stars.
I think this is the most underrated milky way video
Please share this Gem of a video as much as possible.I am blown away with this video, thanks to the entire community of the scientists
thank you my friend
Amazing how beautiful and colorful space is
I LOVE SPACE. THIS IS MY DREAM
V😄
هنيك الا مرتحت ماعلى همكن الا العزايم وطلعت
Imagine being in a starship, all alone, no one to talk to, only space. That will be so scary. 😩😰
I want ESO to launch a live KZhead channel where videos of deep space are shown continuously 24/7, all 365 days till infinity.
It's truly WONDERFUL!
Amo estos videos. Gracias a los que los hacen posible!
I love to see space in detail
What a gorgeous video! Thanks guys :*)
Amazing video, it just shows we are part of something huge and incredible.
It's amazing
Superb .. awesome.. universe is too vast. As much as possible our instruments are present ...Human will be digging universe. 👍👍
wonderful scene. I wish that I may travel into space from 1 galaxy to other galaxies.
Thank you.
I love the sound of the narrator's voice
Well, she's not black, so that means this video is racist.
Video maravilloso, mágico y increíble la bastedad de nuestra galaxia y el poder descomunal de Sagitario A, el hoyo negro supermasivo en el centro de la misma.
Thank you for this video
Outstanding!!
So beautifully terrifying... Just wonder that the star nearest to Sagittarius A has an orbit streching trillions of km and it revolves this distance in just 1-2 years, that's insanely fast... Just imagine how strong are the tidal forces
I personally believe life cannot exist in the inner portions of the galaxy with such tidal forces. Possibly only the outskirts of galaxies
@@chrisballesteros6181 This is not has to do about personal beliefs but about the nature lows.That extreme stelar orbit cant keep a planetary system so there is no possibility for any lifeform
@@suffocationgreece1911 😉👍
It seems that you're are thinking about "life" in human terms only, but even in this world there are "impossible" forms of life, living very well in conditions hostile for human beings. Life will always find a way. We are not alone.
Superb video.
Wonderful Universe 🌐👍🐱⭐⭐⭐
النجوم هي شموس ومن كثرة البعد الساحق البعض الدي يتراءى لنا يبدو صغيرا 😍
This is mindblowing.
Goodness ....no words can express
Wow amazing!!
Amazing
So now i need to get my own planetarium dome to watch youtube properly anybody got some spare money for me?
Excellent
To the center of our Galaxy - the place where stars are born!!!
very nice
Thans for sharing, i,m a fan.
Agora entendi. Aquele rico campo de estrelas localiza-se no centro da Via Láctea.
the narrator has been listening to Attenborough a lot lol
nice artistic lovely voice
WHAT ARE THOSE BRIGHT DOTS?
this is great woooow
Ютуб, выведи это видео и подобные видео в рекомендации 🧐 слишком мало просмотров
Certamente haverá uma palha seca no deserto de Atacama...mas este deserto tem como companhia a tecnologia de ultima geração e características únicas que nos dão o privilégio de ver a Milky Way onde esta inserida a Terra com detalhe e 8000000 de estrelas?? Que fartura luminosa surpreendente?
Wow can't imagine 😳

Один вопрос остался, это чёрная дыра где-то возле центра Млечного Пути, или эта чёрная дыра и есть центром Млечного Пути?
Great super
Would I need permission to use this in a reflective space?
waow... 😊😊
The introduction sequence of the milky way baffles me: When rotating the telescope with respect to earth, I would expect the galaxy to remain in position, while earth's surroudings rotate. Otherwise, when fixing the telescope to earth, I would expect the earth's surroundings in position and the galaxy to rotate, like it happens in 5:56. But in the introduction sequence 0:56 both the earth and the galaxy rotate, allbeit with slightly different speeds. How's that? Otherwise very nice and good presentation on the heart of the galaxy.
The Milky Way seems to rotate around the sky over a period of 24 hours due to the rotation of the Earth. In the first view the telescope only takes minutes to rotate to a new position so the galaxy is in almost exactly the same position or angle in relation to the Earth - so they will both rotate in the telescope’s view. Later the telescope also rotates but much more slowly, tracking the galaxy’s apparent rotation around the sky - it would take the telescope 24 hours to go all the way around (although in both cases the sequence is sped up in the video. )
@@michaelhoste_ Thank you for a very clear explanation. I, wrongly, assumed that from the beginning the telescope was tracking the galaxy. Nice to see that effect and well explained. Thank you!
Take me,,,...to part of your journey...

Ein wunderbares Video! Vielen, vielen Dank! (Und ganz nebenbei: Wie schön, einmal ein Englisch zu hören, das nicht US-amerikanisch verzerrt ist.)
Pinche ataque cardíaco me pegó
Gravity does not influence (travel) faster than light. This is why the galaxy has spiral arms. As the gravitational influence spreads out away from the black hole there is a "lag" effect on stars that are light years away from it and the further you get away from the black hole the more spread out the lag is. Similar "lag" occurs during super novas as the expanding explosion spreads out over light years the impact on the gas in the path of the shock wave distorts and "bends" the arms and twists them.
I think you will find that the spiral arm are caused by the propagation of turbulence.
Mark Gallaway www.astronomynotes.com/ismnotes/s8.htm It is caused by differential rotation.
Luther Ransom, Jr. No it isn't. That is very old school idea. The rotation curve of the galaxy is relatively flat due to the dark matter halo. If it were caused by differential rotation the arms would wind up, they don't, if they did they would be transitory.
They are transitory. Just not on human time scales.
Luther Ransom, Jr. Luther.Although I respect your opinion, I'm an expert on this. The rotation curve of the inner Galaxy is non Keplerian.
Haven't we got a telescope on the moon now it was out the other year.
👍

As we look at 84million stars more than 84million people starve everyday,this is what science tells us puts things into perspective.

😲😲😲😲😮😮☝
Could not see, due to writting.
Fucking wow
All that man cannot see he calls "black hole". and if in reality it was a large star that does not emit any luminous radiation but has such an energy as to make other stars orbit around it. We still have so much to learn from the universe
What do you mean a star that doesn’t emit light? That is basically what a black hole is! - a collapsed star with so much ‘energy’ (gravity) that light can’t escape. Which is what you have described.
@@michaelhoste_ technically, a black hole would have to swallow everything that comes close to it including light. But these stars simply orbit around.
@@gregluv6493 Because atm the ones that are orbiting are going too fast and aren’t close enough. But I don’t know what you think is there other than a black hole..
👍🏼💓☺️🤩😍🙃🥰😘🤗
What we see here is not the center of Milk-Way is just part of the one arm of the galaxy
It is the centre - the view is through the arms to the middle of the densest part of the Milky Way - the stars are actually so tiny and spread out that we can see all the way to the centre.

That’s created by Most merciful Allah and it mentioned in Quran clearly
No
No, it's not created by your falafel god.

Are you still alive, or did you blow yourself up after posting that?
지금까지 2번 접견했습니다. 주관적인 후기이니 알아서 잘 걸러들으시면 좋을 것 같습니다. 처자 얼굴은 40대 중반으로 보입니다. 못생기지는 않았고 그 나이대에 비해서는 ㅍㅅㅌ라고 생각합니다. 가슴은 의술의 힘을 빌리신 것 같지만 모양이나 ㄲㅈ 이쁩니다. 애무 좋고, ㅂㅃ시 냄새도 없습니다. 쪼임도 좋은편입니다. 꽉물어달라하면 꽉물어주는데 매우 좋았습니다 ㅋㅋ. 두번다 질사로 마무리했는데 제가 경험이 많이는 없어서 그런지 몰라도 오래 버티지는 못하고 사정했습니다. 쪼임을 참기가 어렵더군요. 가격만 좀 더 쌌으면 자주 보고싶은 처자입니다. 아 그리고 접견하신분들은 비댓 달아주시면 감사하겠습니다. 물어보고싶은게 있어서요. 마지막으로 다시한번 말하지만 지극히 주관적인 후기입니다
