It‘s absolutely insane to me that we are even remotely able to map the universe on this scale, given how incomprehensibly large the scales we are talking about are.
-
Boy how to cheer me up after a rough day : new video of my favourite channel
-
Legendary, I love it when a new episode comes out. HOTU is my absolute favourite thing on YouTube
-
King Ghidorah supercluster is probably the coolest astrophysical name I've ever had.
-
the similarities in structure between the cosmic web, nervous systems, and mycorrhizal networks strike me as one of the fundamental fractals of existence & information
-
The love I have for my Dog!
-
I seriously. SERIOUSLY love these videos. This channel is one of the best on YouTube
-
The scale of the universe is beyond words. Spending just a moment considering it is enough to dramatically tune your perspective. Seems the universes size is indicative of its depth, what we think we know about life, ourselves, is just an inconceivablly tiny speck of what there is to know.
-
the quality of the narrative script of the documentaries made by this channel is absolutely amazing!!!!
-
in a world full of uninspiring AI space content, your channel is paradoxical. The team behind this - give yourselves a pat on the back
-
anyone play this to fall asleep i do it everyday religiously i can’t sleep without this chanel’s video
-
The emptiness of atoms is another example.
-
I’m very appreciative of the hard work that goes into researching these videos, and in awe of your script writing skills.
-
YES! Another video is just what I needed. Thanks for keeping the output at a solid pace. If you make it, we will watch.
-
This is my absolute favorite space information channel!
-
I love this channel so much, i really like astronomy and philosophy content, and i'm usually very picky about which videos to choose to look at and which channel to subscribe to, but this channel has it ALL! - Consistent rich information to learn from - Amazing visuals that aligns with the content - An animator with a soothing voice - A philosophical angle - Takes you to a whole other realm - Shows new perspectives of life and makes you ask urself new questions - Lenghty videos that i can also sleep to - Public and easy access without too much annoying included ads This whole channel is absolute perfection! Keep up the good work, i am so happy whenever a new video drops! 💙 Lots of love and admiration to all the people who work on this 🙏 (from Morocco)

best part of the month!
-
FUN FACT :: even atoms themselves ARE mostly empty space. i find it to be REALLY, QUITE AWESOME that such an arrangement ALSO extends to large scales such as that of our entire known universe.

You put a lot of work into these scripts. Another great video. Keep up the great work.
