Was that the highway we just passed?

Russellville's the next turn, it's closer.

[muffled screams]

So what do you want to do with him?

Well, looks like we got ourselves

one of them "terrorists"...

[laughing]

[screams]

[piano music]

Hi, my name is Adrian.

I am 40 years old.

Money has always been my passion

counting it

investing it

making it

And I'm pretty good at it too.

That's why I moved here.

A very important bank

wanted me to be their broker.

What about you?

Well, my name is Laniakea.

Heh, what?

Yeah, I know that face.

Everybody messes it up. It's Laniakea!

Lanaikea!

Lanaikea?

Good job!

See? Maybe I'm not like all the others.

Maybe you're not...

I'm half hawaiian and my father

used to be a hippy, so...

That's how I ended up with

this funny name I guess.

I like it.

It means "Immeasurable Heaven"

What?

It's a beautiful meaning...

[ringtone]

A beautiful meaning.

You still haven't told me

what it is that you do.

Oh you mean work?

Yeah you know, that thing you

do every day in order to make money

So you really don't know who I am?

You're not one of my 80,000 YouTube fans?

80,000? Wow!

You're not one of those webcam girls who

show off their clothes and make up are you?

Ahaha, do I look like

a fashion blogger to you?

You know what, maybe you should

check out my channel first, and then

decide if you still want to see me...

[acoustic guitar]

Well, thats it guys.

I hope you liked this song

and dont forget to subscribe

to my YouTube channel.

[blows kiss]

Many kisses!

[phone ringing]

Goodmorning Earthlings

and welcome to a

new episode with Astroviking!

If you've clicked on this video

for the first time, it might be

because you were wondering what is Laniakea.

Laniakea is our house in the Universe...

Laniakea...

[waves crashing]

Never been here before!

Really?

This is like my favorite place.

It's so special...

What's so special about it?

I don't know. Because it's quiet,

and it's dark...

Come, I want to show you something.

What are you doing?

Just trust me!

What!

Sit down.

You can't see them with all the city lights.

[eerie sounds]

God, there are so many!

Laniakea is our house in the Universe.

To be more precise, it is a tiny dot

in a gigantic conglomerate

of 10,000 galaxies amongst which

there is our Milky Way...

Alpha Centauri, the Star closest to

the Earth after the Sun: 4.3 light years...

in the scale of the universe

it is very, very close:

it's as if you were in the kitchen,

and opened the door

and stepped into the living room.

Bad news though:

with today's technologies

it would take us 30,000 years to get there

that's quite a big step

to reach a living room.

4.3 light years is nothing compared to the

size of Laniakea, which measures about

500 million light years.

Which is no more than a tiny dot

in the whole visible Universe.

[moaning]

Stars...

Cosmic microwave background...

Gravitational waves...

The Great Void...

Inflation!

What's the matter, baby?

I'm sorry, it's just a little bit

of stress from work...

[phone dings]

Good morning Earthlings!

Ready for a new episode?

UY Scuti is a bright red supergiant,

the leading candidate for being

the largest known star

is nothing compared to the size of...

...which measures about

500 billion light years...

[overlapping voice over]

...thus a volume nearly

5 billion times that of the Sun

Where does the light come from?

The Sun, you'll say... sure...

but what you don't know is that photons are

born in the Sun's nucleus and are trapped

there for millions of years until they

manage to reach the surface where they are

propelled for 150,000,000km

and in 10 minutes reach your skin

Photons...

F***ing photons!

[laughing]

[glass shatters]

Oh no... gravity!

[phone dings]

Imagine the Earth and compare it to the

Universe ... then zoom in on a city

like New York:
that's Laniakea. Zoom in

further on a skyscraper: that's our galaxy.

Now go inside one of the rooms:

that's our solar system

and, floating mid-air, a single

speck of dust:
behold, the Earth.

How did it start?

[knocking]

Adrian!

Go home! I don't want to see anybody!

Adrian! Open the door!

Go away! I don't want to see you!

F*** you! Let me in!

Adrian! Open the door!

Please, please stop shouting!

Go away!

Open this f***ing door, now!

Please, stay away, stay away from me.

It's been two weeks, you haven't

answered any of my calls. I'm coming inside!

What the f*** happened here?

It's OK, can you just leave?

Adrian, did someone break inside your house?

No, it's fine, it's fine.

What the f***...

No. No no no!

Don't touch it!

This is really freaky...

What the f*** happened here?

What is all this stuff doing on the floor?

It's OK... it's fine.

Adrian, what the f*** is going on?

Adrian, give me some-

Oh god... your name...

I don't want to think about it.

Adrian, drop that!

Please!

F***, we spend our entire

life counting money...

when we're just a single

heartbeat of life...

We are nothing! As Astroviking says!

Who the f*** is Astroviking?

You don't understand...

Stars, milions and milions of

times bigger than the Sun...

black holes, nebulas, voids superclusters...

I can see the greatness!

[phone dings]

Good morning Earthlings!

Who the f*** is he?

Today I'd like to talk about

something quite peculiar.

You might have some

trouble sleeping tonight.

What is he saying?

We are all made of stars!

- Who is he?

- Silence!

The substance we are made of

comes directly from the heart

of stars exploded billions of years ago...

so we can say we are all sons of stars!

[laughs]

Adrian?

[stabs]

But have no fear earthlings!

Your atoms will outlive you and

maybe, one day, be part of a new Star.

[laughs]

[ticking]

[whispering]

[crunching]

[gasps]

[ticking]

[alarm]

You don't want to do that to me.

Didn't they teach you to hold life sacred?

Doesn't my life count?

You can't do this. Look me in the eyes.

Look at me.

You don't know how they caught me.

You don't know how they killed me!

I suffered the agony of terror and death.

Do I deserve this?

Was I an evil predator? No.

Just a travel buddy.

We're all travel buddies.

How can you be an accomplice

to what they did to me?

Of those who deny universal brotherhood?

You trample on freedom.

You hold life in contempt too!

You deny your own guilt!

If you don't hold life sacred, you don't

deserve it. Got it?

Know what you should do?

Look me in the eye.

Come on. Do it.

Do it!

Do it!

Do it! Do it! Do it!

Do it! Do it! Do it!

[dramatic music]

[gagging]

[screaming]

[screaming]

in a brand new package.

[sci-fi sounds]

[coughing]

I told you you were too old for this.

[sci-fi sounds]

Are there no budget options?
