Compared to gigantic galaxies and star clusters, the Solar System is no more than just a speck of dust. There are thousands of stars within the radius of 100 light years from it. With some of them barely distinguishable against the dark abyss of space, others are so bright that they can be seen even if they are in other galaxies. Besides, there are a lot of invisible objects lurking in the depths of space, too – from massive brown dwarves to rocky exoplanets comparable to our Earth in size. Some of them may harbour life while others may pose a threat.
However, all this diversity is eclipsed by the scale of our galaxy. There are 200 billion stars and over a trillion planets at the very least to be found across its expanses. It is quite impossible to completely explore this great abundance of unique space objects. Today we will talk about some of the closest ones.

I’m thankful youtube channels like this. Independent creators are stepping in and filling the gap left by mainstream documentaries that are increasingly dumbed down.
-
It’s fascinating to think that as we look at the stars in the sky, we are literally gazing into the past.
-
I can say with NO hyperbole and no exaggeration that the visual effects of your productions are WORLD CLASS, the likes of which can only be found in the biggest-budgeted of your counterparts. My adoration and admiration for your visual effects team cannot be understated.👍

I've been hoping to see star maps of the local cluster for a long time. Thanks for all your hard work building this video!
-
Space is amazing! Thank you very much!
-
I'll never be able to fathom the vastness of space..It damn near takes my breath anytime I think about...
-
you absolutely have to continue doing this. this channel is the best entertainment-mapping of the our galactic neighborhood thing that has ever existed.
-
Perhaps the best animated space video I've ever seen, great work
-
It's interesting that the Sirius system is a "young" system while SiriusB is clearly one of the older stars we know of. Makes me wonder how that system formed.
-
I loved this tour through our stellar neighborhood. I would love to continue this journey to explore our nearby stars.
-
This has been a very detailed and interesting glimpse on our local area. It is always mindboggling to see how much we've discovered, but also how insanely much more we haven't. Thank you for making this.

So let me get this straight: the Castor system consists of two stars circling each other, each with a red dwarf as a companion, and those four stars combined circle with another pair of red dwarves? The universe never ceases to surprise me ^^
-
This is beautifully detailed. One of your best videos yet ❤️ mind boggling scales of distance only within a single corner of one single galaxy
-
The local area of space contains lifetimes of research potential, its amazing.
-
This was so amazing!!!! I literally said wow out loud 4-5 times.
-
One of the best features I have watched in a good while.
-
Space is amazing. Thank You.
-
The Castor segment seemed rather.. majestic. I enjoyed it.
-
Such a huge shame that the Zeta Reticuli star system wasn’t brought up. 2 stars that are identical twins to our own. Just imagine the probability of life on potential exoplanets there..
