Greetings all!
There are a few YouTube channels I watch on a regular basis that I’d put in the science/math bin. Here are a few examples:
NileRed Standup Maths Steve Mould AlphaPhoenix
I was wondering if anyone here had any recommendations for other science/math channels to follow or a resource that aggregates good channels. As a lay person, as in no college level education on these topics, I’m not sure I have the qualifications to determine if a channel is highly accurate or not. I think I’ve done a good job finding channels that are accurate but wanted to check in with folks that may be able to better determine that.
I’m particularly interested in astronomy, cosmology, and evolution.
