    Hey, at 9:00 the images of the fast orbiting neutron stars make the screen kinda flash fast. A flashing lights warning would be nice for epileptic people

      Photosensitive epilepsy specifically. But I hope that anybody with that condition is being cautious regarding any use of a computer, let alone graphical renderings like this. Just plugging a cable into your PC incorrectly could cause flashing lights.

    The amount of energy radiated out as gravitational waves isn't something that I ever really gave much thought to, but with the knowledge of how weakly gravity interacts in our universe, as a whole, those are truly mind-boggling numbers.

    Of the 100’s of explainers I’ve watched on topics like this, you produce hands down the most effective and visually elegant content - all while continuously improving with each consecutive piece.
    Been watching your content for years and was originally nervous you might stop because the view count was upsettingly low for the amazing quality and effort you were clearly putting in… I’m so relieved to look back and see some of your early vids now with millions of views.
    Truly top tier content. May the UA-cam algorithm bless you, and may you keep blessing us with these beauties!
