    Yes, thinking like a physicist can be a little weird sometimes (NO MUSIC, REAL VOICE)
    Nov 3 2024
    Learn about a scientific topic, then drift off into refreshing sleep. Today: Another question you’ve never asked yourself: What is the principle of least action really? Oh, and a rather random reference to The Wheel of Time at the very end.

  • Earth’s dynamic atmosphere 🌪️

    Earth’s dynamic atmosphere 🌪️
    Jul 31 2024
    These are five aspects of Earth’s atmosphere, put together into a surprisingly whole whole, as it were, erm…anyhow these pieces have been published separately on YouTube. When I realized how beautiful a story they told when combined, I simply did so. Dusted off, re-recorded in better quality and adapted to the audio medium.
