Please note NO generative AI was used in this video, or any of my others. I spend months making them using Blender. It’s wonderful, free, open-source 3D VFX software (I highly recommend it!). I use motion capture to record my own movements and the face inside the helmet is footage of my own face projected inside, it’s not always perfect but as with all my VFX I’m gradually getting better at it. Just watching my videos is already a wonderful way to support what I do, but if you’d like to support my approach to science education further or you believe like me that creativity isn’t a problem that needs fixing with AI, you can join my Patreon for free: https://www.patreon.com/epicspaceman I share much more of the behind-the-scenes process there and paid members can even appear as astronauts in future videos. 🌍 Support & Social Youtube Subscribe – https://www.youtube.com/epicspaceman?sub_confirmation=1 Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/epic.spaceman/ TikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/@epic.spaceman Website – https://www.epicspaceman.com/ Go to https://www.planetary.org/spaceman to become a member of The Planetary Society, joining their mission to increase discoveries in our solar system and beyond, elevate the search for life outside our planet, and decrease the risk of Earth being hit by an asteroid. Thank you everyone for your support! This has been by far my hardest video to make and another labour of love. It was definitely challenge making a fully CGI video that was 36 minutes long. But it's a fascinating subject and I'm so happy to share some of my thoughts on it, I hope you enjoyed it! For those interested in the technicals of how I made this, I use free, wonderful 3D software called Blender, I talk a little bit more about my process in my video 'Who is Epic Spaceman?' I think it's very difficult to ignore the numbers that I was trying to get across in the video, it certainly seems very likely to me that our galaxy is teeming with life. I think the next 20 years will probably bring so much interesting news on this front. Themore we share, talk about, and support science, the sooner that news will come. I'm very much looking forward to making the next video, it will be shorter so I will be able to do it much quicker!
