The Strange World of Gravity Made Simple
81Today's video is a comprehensive look at Gravity. This is one of the most familiar forces of nature but there is still a lot of misunderstanding that I hope to tackle with this video.
Also, we hit 1000 subscribers recently! Thank you all so much, it's amazing to have that many people interested in what I do, even if that has changed a lot over the years. I hope you enjoy this video and future videos on this channel.
