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.
-
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
-
I’m so high Edit: still high
-
The love I have for my Dog!
-
Legendary, I love it when a new episode comes out. HOTU is my absolute favourite thing 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.
-
anyone play this to fall asleep i do it everyday religiously i can’t sleep without this chanel’s video
-
Boy how to cheer me up after a rough day : new video of my favourite channel
-
the quality of the narrative script of the documentaries made by this channel is absolutely amazing!!!!
-
I seriously. SERIOUSLY love these videos. This channel is one of the best on YouTube
-
The scales of the universe are so immense that it’s too inconceivable for me to even grasp what’s being shown, but there is one thing that always knocks the wind out of me. This is just the observable universe.
-
This is by far my favorite channel to smoke out to. I feel like the channel's subtitle should be "Whoa dude!"
-
I’m very appreciative of the hard work that goes into researching these videos, and in awe of your script writing skills.
-
in a world full of uninspiring AI space content, your channel is paradoxical. The team behind this - give yourselves a pat on the back
-
The emptiness of atoms is another example.
-
This channel having under a million subs seems like it should be illegal. This channel is criminally underrated lol
-
This is my absolute favorite space information channel!
-
I graduated with a degree in electrical engineering in 1984 but because i fell in love with physics i did a second degree in physics with a leaning to astronomy and cosmology. To this day im still stunned at the vastness and size of the observable universe. The graphics really bring that home. Another great video.
