00:00Hey there mind astray fam, it's Farhan and today we're diving straight into something wild.
00:05A deep dive into the mysterious and dangerous world of red dwarf stars.
00:10These stars are way more common than our sun.
00:13They're also different and unforgiving.
00:15So what would happen if you fell into one?
00:17I get it, we love pushing the boundaries with these extreme what if scenarios.
00:23But that's where science gets the coolest.
00:27Red dwarfs may look tiny and faint when you compare them to our sun, but don't underestimate them.
00:34They bring serious power and falling into one?
00:37That'd be a trip you'd never forget or survive.
00:432. Begin with.
00:46Think about this.
00:47Red dwarfs are the most common stars in the universe.
00:51These stars are much smaller and cooler than the sun.
00:54They burn their fuel at a slow pace.
00:57This allows them to last for trillions of years.
01:00They give off a reddish glow, which is where their name comes from.
01:04But don't let their smaller size mislead you.
01:07These are still stars with massive gravity blistering heat and violent surface activity.
01:13Now imagine what might happen if you chose to dive into one of these cosmic entities.
01:19Let's not sugarcoat it.
01:21Falling into any star will kill you.
01:23There's no return trip from that.
01:25However, just for the sake of imagining, let's think about what this wild journey might feel like as we explore the strange and dangerous nature of red dwarfs.
01:34Reason Scepter 1.
01:37See what a star that outlives everything.
01:40Looks like red dwarfs outlast almost everything else living for trillions of years, which is far beyond the universe's current age.
01:49If you fell into one, your time with it would be short, but you'd encounter a star destined to exist long after all else fades.
01:56Reason the bugger 2.
02:01Briefly feel the weirdness of relativity.
02:05The red dwarf's massive gravity would mess with time and space as you got closer.
02:10Time would slow down a little for you compared to someone farther away, and space might even seem squished.
02:18You wouldn't feel it or be saved by it, though.
02:21It would just be a strange, fast moment.
02:23Reason number 3.
02:28To face stellar.
02:29Flares up close.
02:30Red dwarfs throw out intense and frequent flares of energy.
02:34These outbursts compare to the star's size and act more punch than flares from our sun.
02:40Plunging into a red dwarf would put you right in the middle of these flares.
02:44Reason the bugger 4.
02:49To dive into a strange and unfamiliar world.
02:53The atmosphere of a red.
02:55Dwarf is nothing like our suns.
02:57Scientists know much less about it.
02:59Falling into one would bring you face to face with unknown forces of physics and chemistry.
03:05But let's be real.
03:06Jumping into a red dwarf would be quick, fiery, and would destroy you.
03:10At first, the star's gravity would drag you inward, making you speed up.
03:15The thin, outer layers of its atmosphere would turn heavier and much hotter in no time.
03:23As you fall further, you'd face powerful radiation like ultraviolet light and x-rays, even though the star might look dim to us.
03:32Your spacesuit and body wouldn't hold up.
03:35They'd start breaking apart, molecule by molecule.
03:38The heat would rocket to millions of degrees Celsius.
03:43You wouldn't survive a second.
03:45You'd get vaporized and merge with the star's plasma.
03:49The crushing.
03:50Pressure would make sure your atoms blend into the star's material.
03:54And those stellar flares?
03:56If you somehow ended up in one, you'd face a mind-boggling explosion of energy way beyond what anyone could grasp.
04:05Falling into a red dwarf means an instant and total end.
04:10No living thing could survive it.
04:12But if we think about it, it helps us see the overwhelming force even small stars possess, and the extreme reality scattered across the universe.
04:22It shows that even stars we think of as mild are strong, and that the cosmos is packed with sights.
