Astrum, history of the universe and PBS spacetimes content is soooo good they absolutely get money from me regularly and I hope they stick around for decades to come!

Yes. HOTU is the best channel I swear. They are so professional and so polished.

i'll definitely have to come back and check some of these out sometime.

Do it! It's a fantastic science, with ever expanding horizons! That being said, if working in the field is a bit too much, amateur astronomy is a fabulous and friendly hobby - if a bit expensive

It's out of this world funny.

it does sound like a fascinating field, but im not sure there's much in it for me outside of a hobby. I guess i need to look into what the field actually does lol.
