Dune’s Black Sun: The Physics Behind Giedi Prime | Scifi Science

Dune: Part Two gave us one of the most eerie and just bloody cool visual moments in sci-fi the black sun of Giedi Prime. But is that even possible? Can a star really look black? In this video, I break down the science behind that moment; what stars actually look like, how colour and light work, and why filming with infrared cameras created something that feels completely alien... and perfect! Topics: Why stars can’t be black How Earth's atmosphere tricks us into seeing the sun as yellow What "seeing heat" looks like, and why it makes the Harkonnen world so uncomfortable The use of infrared light by Greig Fraser, Dune's cinematographer, isn't just a brilliant visual, it’s a clever application of physics to make the impossible feel real. AND IT'S REALLY REALLY CREEPY!! ____________ Join this channel here or on Patreon for members only videos: The Physics of Rick & Morty Season 1 is up now and we're starting our journey through the Alien franchise next (predator movies do not count!!) patreon.com/user?u=83887531 ____________ 🧠 Further reading and things of interest: Multiwavelength Astronomy, University of Chicago: https://ecuip.lib.uchicago.edu/multiw...
