Yeah Oh okay Signs People last one of this whole

00:05

shebang Siri's Big bang Serious way Wait Suppose both scientists

00:21

meet and have a debate Scientists One turns out to

00:23

be correct about son being on the outer parts of

00:25

Milky Way Scientist to turns out be corrected Spiral objects

00:28

are isolated star systems and our Milky Way is just

00:31

one of them Well which of the following best describes

00:33

the likely results of debate between scientists One in scientists

00:37

too We see No fistfight here is an option Well

00:42

Scientist one makes two points First he says there are

00:45

spiral objects out They're not made of stars which are

00:47

inside our galaxy the Milky Way The question prompt tells

00:51

us he's wrong about this Thes spiral objects are in

00:54

fact made out of stars and they're not in this

00:56

galaxy minus one point His second claim is that our

01:00

sewer system is at the edges of the Milky Way

01:02

galaxy Our game show host would give him one point

01:05

for that one kind of neutral out there Yeah well

01:08

scientist to gets awarded one point for saying that the

01:11

spiral objects are isolated star systems and not in the

01:15

Milky Way galaxy but he who give it also take

01:19

it away He's wrong about our solar system being at

01:22

the center of the Milky Way minus one point Ding

01:24

ding time's up and it's a draw Answer is C 00:01:28.54 --> [endTime] and that's it We'll see you later
