Description: Like many things in the solar system, Mercury has been observed by humans for thousands of years. It has a connection to our collective psyche (even if it's only what we have projected onto it), and a history of eluding those that try to understand it.
It is the smallest and innermost planet in the Solar System, bearing the full brunt of the Sun's volatile coronal mass ejections. It's orbital eccentricities fooled astronomers and mathematicians for centuries and it has amazed current scientists with it's recently discovered water-ice and organic compounds.
Let's find out all about this temperamental, inferior planet with a voluminous iron core. Thanks for watching.
Music is from the game "Universe Sandbox"

I don’t know if you’re just a regular guy or a teacher/professor ... you present information so intelligently and effectively.
thanks andy. im a tutor but slowly trying to make a living from my videos, so thats really encouraging
i completely agree! feels like a super natural flowing conversation with us but the videos super informative without feeling like a lecture loved every bit!🔥💪🏻
Agreed. I just subscribed because of this.
@@LetsFindOut1 based
@@LetsFindOut1can u make a video on how to coculate a orbit or everything we know about a black hole that would be sick
Kind of like the "Bob Ross" of the Cosmos, yes? Happy little planets and galaxies. :)
:)
Bob Ross meets Carl Sagan :)
Cos Moss
Smack the devil out of it
We don't make supernovas, we make happy little black holes
I think we all can appreciate his almost flawless circle drawn. Incredible Rich.
Lol thanks
I was concerned as to how well he did that circle. It's almost like I was staring an invisible cup he was outlining
I am from a part of Australia that has been impacted severely by drought and wildfires. Life at the moment for me and my community is a struggle.
Due to the stress of the ongoing crisis here getting enough sleep and rest has been a challenge. Watching and listening to your playlists has become a daily way for me to not only sleep and rest, but also to calm my mind and maintain a positive attitude at times when I just can't sleep.
Your ability to tell a story, and then get into detail regarding discoveries we humans have made with our space machines is awesome. Your uploads science me off to a place where I can take a break from what daily life here has become.
I just wanted to send you a big THANK YOU! Your video posts are helping people like me get through the daily grind in difficult circumstances. They provide so much more than you intend - and for that I again say 'thank you'!
thank you for that praise simon. that made my day. i hope your area comes back and flourishes after all the deadwood burnt off
Yo Simon i know this might be weird to ask but would you be willing to give me an update on your life? Found your story very worrying and interesting and i hope everything turned out fine!
This channel has won me over. I now spend 1 hour a day, when i come from work and at night, listening to pure asmr magic. I always wanted to know more about planets and space in general. Never took the time. Now i get both! I think i understand the amount of work that goes into these videos and you need to know that this really helps me everyday. A big thanks to you!
i seriously appreciate the suuport and kind word fox. thank you
Let's Find Out ASMR You both work hard, I don’t have a job but I still look forward to listening to your videos, good luck to both of you and just know that lots of people appreciate you two.
Very impressed with your free-drawn circle in the opening. (I hope you didn't cheat!)
Thanks c3. (...and i practiced before recording, soI'm very pleased my circle is appreciated. :D)
Do you think you could make a video about Greek mythology?
And here it is.. :D
He should mention Greek mythology but you realize there's only one God.
Jeremiah Rowe sr. nah there’s no god
Jeremiah Rowe sr. There’s only one that *you* believe in* don’t assume there’s only 1 god just because it’s what you believe, if you want to go off all religions there’s probably hundreds of gods and goddesses.
Jeremiah Rowe sr. I’m not saying there is more than one god. I don’t believe that Greek mythology is real. That’s why it has the word myth in it. Geez. When you think about that it’s kinda racist because you’re basically saying that everybody else’s religion doesn’t matter.
Your voice is so calming, I could listen to you all day long! Greetings from your new fan from Czech:-)
hey from florida! thanks for watching martinka
Sometimes I watch these to learn something and end up falling asleep.
Yes, I do sometimes watch these to learn something, these are actually really informational.
omg i got a heart tysm!!
Hearts disappear if you edit your comment 😂
Can I make a request?
Can you do a talking asmr where you talk about like the space shuttle? Or like the vehicles that gets us into space?
Eg. falcon 9, atlas V,
Great suggestion
That name though
Let's Find Out ASMR second this
Would that include the Saturn V?
I came for the ASMR. I subscribed for the incredible facts and education.
awesome perty thank you
Same.
Hands down best male soft spoken voice!!! Love all your videos, keep it up ☺️
Thanks dominic
If you like his voice, you should check out The French Whisperer. He has similar vids too. These two guys are my favorites though.
Allyson Stachitus okay thanks! I’ll check him out as well 😊😊
I agree, love his voice! If you like this kind of asmr, you might enjoy Asmrctica as well😊
Jess Reinhardt thank you! I looked him up today and I'm obsessed!
I fell asleep to this, and subsequently had a dream of a guru whispering to me about Mercury. This felt ethereal.
Thank you for these.I love how you combine learning with ASMR. You're an original; definitely my new #1.
sorry i missed this kat. thanks for the encouragement. I appreciate the time you take to comment and show love for the channel.
This video just got a shout out from The French Whisperer 👍 congrats!
Im honored
Rich! I am so happy you decided to make this a series!! Mercury might be small, but it's so cute and strong (lol) and you painted a colorful story with your voice, drawing, and background music : )
Excuse me, could you repeat literally everything, I was heightened state of relaxation and completely zoned out
yes pls i forgot to take the notes
This is hands down the best damn ASMR video out there. Would love to see more on other planets.
i really appreciate that kurly. i'm going to do all the planets like this within the next year ideally. Venus is up next!

The amount of work one of these videos take. This is very underrated for such a great video. Keep up the great work ❤you have earned my sub 🎉
Look, the main question to come out of this video is "will you draw everybody's favorite planet, Pluto?"
Pluto isn't a planet.
georgie santiago yes it is go away
@@josephc.558 he's right, it isn't a planet. It used to be, but scientists stripped it of that title
I consider it a planet still
@@Unku. totally irrelevant what you consider it to be. Fact is, it isn't one
WE NEED MORE PLANET DRAWING VIDEOS. PLEASE.
I second that
I will not make a " draw Uranus joke"
I will not make a " draw Uranus joke"
Gavrilo Princip 😂😂😂😂 I’m 25 and still laugh my ass off at the name of the planet 😂😂😂
Rachel Jackson you laugh Uranus off???😂😂
Josie Stanton 😂😂😂😂😂
What 25 year old. Is watching asmr lmao I’m 13
Getting ready to be an astroneer
I LOVE this channel so much. I love your voice, your information, your drawings. It completely relaxes me! Thank you for your time and the care you take making your content. Being a single mom and junior high math teacher, I have a fair amount of stress. Your videos really help me decompress.
that is a stressful job im sure. thanks for what you do. its an honor to get gratitude from you crista. take care
Yo I've been listening to asmr for over 10 years, you have one of the best channels
The best ASMR video I've ever heard...and seen, great soothing voice and artist...and so informative...can't wait to check out all the others! Definitely my new favorite channel!
thanks asher. i appreciate the kind words
This is by far my favourite video. The drawing, the background music, the history, stories, the myths, and the facts.
I’m still holding out hope that it will eventually become a series along with each planet in the solar system.
lol sorry for the wait, but I AM MAKING A VENUS DRAWING soon. thanks for the encouraging comment cv
I'm in the midst of answering your mail and clicked the link, and this video was the first thing I saw. This is really calming. I'm being honest. I think I listened for 10 seconds and I felt calm. You are definitely doing something right here :)
man that means alot. thanks spacewave 🙏🏽
This is perfect to me because I love learning about the planets and I love asmr to so this is perect
Literally the best asmr Channel.
Rich... just discovered ASMR and your channel all in the same week. Easily one of my favorites... thanks for the content! You have a very soothing voice.
Thanks bryan. Thats really nice of you
Kind of like the "Bob Ross" of the Cosmos, yes? Happy little planets and galaxies.
what the heck is it with all of these new mapping/art ASMR channels actually working on me unlike most others? Definitely one of my fav channels along with ASMRctica. Can't wait to see yet more from ya!
Your telling me Nabuu isn’t home to Jar Jar and Padme?
Vienna The Grill *Naboo
Vienna The Grill I’m behind on this reference
I wonder how gungan meat tastes like, probably like frog mixed with human.
OKAY BUT YOU STARTED WITH A PERFECT CIRCLE LIKE WHAT?!
Although I am Korean, your asmr is so good to hear when I studying or sleeping. Thank you so much!
started watching so i can pass my science class. but then i realized that this guys videos are really relaxing and i cant stop watching them now! thank you for the tingles❤🤘
Sent here by the French whisperer and now a subscriber. Very informative and relaxing.
OH MY GOD. This video just popped up on my recommendations, and this is just incredible. What an awesome idea to educate people in asmr format. THANK YOU ✨❤️ Subscribed!
Please please please do more of there type of videos I love themmmmm😍😍
@1:03: Dude, that was a really impressive freehand circle
Can you pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssseeeeeeeee do more planet drawings!? These are my favorite! PS your videos are so calming and it’s like the one teacher with the soft-spoken voice that makes you sleepy during the class
i know its been years since i said i would, but hopefully I'll be picking back up this series before the end of the year. thanksfor the kind words
Love drawing videos. These sounds on paper with your pencil and fingers tips relax me a lot.
I just wish my school classes or university lectures had been half as instructional, funny and mesmerizing! I hope science instruction to the young is where you are headed professionally! They need you!
Thanks for always being so supportive Tanja
So many asmr video I've watch and you have the calmest soft spoken voice ever, thanks for your amazing voice.
it's here!! it's finally here!! two hours of pure culture and relax... thanks for that Rich 😌👍🏼
Thanks wilbert
Thanks for the recommendation, French!
Nice to see another vid up on the channel, hope you’re doing well! Thanks for the sleep
YES! I used to watch you all the time and then I switched UA-cam logins and was no longer subbed. I kept searching and found other channels similar to yours but none compared. Your voice is amazing. I’m so happy I found you again. Subbed and hit that bell!! 😊👍
Check out my deep dive into the furthest galaxies found by the new Webb Space Telescope: ua-cam.com/video/zcTxuQZzJbQ/v-deo.html
Oh!I fell in love!You are really incredible soul!Your voice and energy is my peace!Never stop!
I love your videos. As a working mum of an 8 month old, I don't get time to delve into subjects that interest me so it's nice to learn and unwind just before I go to bed. Thanks for all the dedication :)
Thanks cally. Thats super cool to hear
Video: **Starts**
**Universe Sandbox theme starts to play in the background**
Me: **in deep sleep**
Oh yep my favorite game
i have never heard a voice like yours before. truly immersive!
Love your vids, love the idea of being able to digest asmr with some useful or fun facts. Live from South Africa
Thank you liam
Coming back to this every other day, such a soothing video to fall asleep to. Thanks pal
This guy is like if Bill Nye was into history and had Bob Ross' Voice and mannerisms
Please never stop making these type of videos!
PERFECTION. Love to you my friend
I love those drawing science videos ^^
Wow, I am hooked with the drawing of “perfect” circle. This is amazing ASMR
Been a while since I last watched you and this is the video I come back too and dam it's good, I missed a lot. Awesome work Rich
Thanks so much alastair
Hey rich! Could you do a black holes part two? I loved those videos soo much! Keep up the good work 🔥
Being one of the very few youtubers who responds to my comments (even if it was just that one) you are now one my favorite UA-camr, top 3, I know it sounds like I'm trying to make it sound like it's such an honor for you, but it truly does mean alot to me thanks...
i regret not having time to respond to all of them, but i'm really grateful for the comment, so I try not to take all the support for granted. Thanks for taking the time to write 1911
Just stumbled here, I love your video! Also, thank you for the other asmr recommendations
in my opinion, you should do a collab with ASMRartica ASMR...idk about what topic, but I guess it would be kinda flawless experience
This ASMRtist needs more subscribers. Listen to him narrating in every video & my sleep mode is *activated* 🌛😪😴
🙏
Misa kidding, misa kidding!! You crack me up. I love rewatching your videos and catching these little gems!
:)
That circle is ... AMAZING
I was expecting this to be cringe worthy but this is actually so good, I also learned stuff
thats a pleasant suprise. thanks k
2 hours? ur the best!! =)
🙏
2hrs of peaceful sleep 💤💤
Love the space videos 🌌🚀👍
Thanks jkw
I love your drawings and diagrams ❤️ and also your voice!!
Thanks j :)
Wow..just so happy I found this channel. Keep up the great content we really appreciate it!
Thats love. Thank you rachel
This is very relaxing!! I’ve been sick for a few days and this is what I need :) thank you, and good night my friend 🥱😴
Thats too bad. Glad the video can be a distraction at least. Get well soon
Let's Find Out ASMR it was I fell asleep last night :) I’m feeling better! Thank you 😊
I love your videos. I get too entranced with your knowledge to even fall asleep sometimes
Dopest find in a while this is too cool. Got here from Back trackin off a Nipsey and J Stone comment.
Wow he has the most calming voice.
I loved this video, please don't forget to do the rest in the series!
I’ve never seen anyone draw a perfect circle with such ease😂
Yay, you are the perfect volume for my preference. I found this by accident but am glad
Woah... you are a really good artist, that's a really cool drawing
Thanks nathan
Just.... Wow... It further opens the door of the kinds of worlds and environments, and no longer locked in to looking for just the Goldielock planets!
uhhhh, just stumbled upon this and can't wait to fall asleep to this
この時間に動画上げてくれることに感謝します 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much
:)
I’d to say thanks for all the sleep you’ve given me over the time i’ve watched you ( decentish length of time, maybe a year and a half ) and plenty of others would agree with this ( the sleep part, maybe not the length of time exactly haha )
thanks guy. thats really positive
One year later, and this still finds its way onto my autoload recommendeds while I'm sleeping.
You should finish the solar system.
Kerbal space program ASMR would be awesome!
Still Waiting for him to draw and Talk about the Rest of our solar system.
You should really continue with this series :)
I love this video. Come back to it often.
Universe Sandbox theme playing in the background (Perfect)
I never know whether to fall asleep or will myself to stay awake and learn. Great Vid btw.
Could be a win win there. Thanks for the support adam.
ur voice is relaxing🎶💯💙 and ur art is beautiful😄💯
I knew bro was the best asmrtist when he said the great jar jar binks
Now if all educational subjects could be taught in this relaxing manner, no one would be skipping or dropping out of school.
We would have a nation of very intelligent and relaxed people.😁
At this point, in this busy life, most of my adult learning comes from this channel.
I likw these kind of videos, because it's relaxing, and I'm learning! Two in one.
Damn coming back to this video for about the 20th time now and just now realizing how impressive that free hand circle at the start was 😂👌
this is such a great series. I would re-watch you giving them color even.
thanks budd
Hey mate, Thank you for the video! Its rather relaxing to just sit back, play some games, draw, or just rest to. I have a recommendation, could you possibly draw something related to Ancient / Feudal Japan? That would be great!
