10 Great Science Youtube Channels

I use Youtube for various purposes including entertainment, music, and learning more about the world. I want to share some of my favorite STEM-related Youtube channels I enjoy:

Steve Mould

Steve has a clear communication style that carries information effectively, but it is even further enhanced by visual demonstrations. I personally especially love the series where there are 3d printed, clear acrylic cutouts. A great example of this is the Gluggle Jug video:

Robert E Fuller

For any interests in the natural world, Robert E. Fuller has a great series of videos showing badgers, weasels, stoats, owls, and kestrel in his garden in North Yorkshire.

Half Interesting

The channel name is “Half Interesting” but the videos are full interesting to me. Many of the videos have titles starting with “why” and “how.” And my response to them is: “Huh, yeah, why?” which is a great sign. There are other videos outside of STEM, but an example of a STEM video is:

AnimalLogic

Going back to the natural world and into animal science (current and historical), I highly recommend the channel AnimalLogic. There are often animals on this channel that I never knew existed. I knew Australia had dangerous animals, but never knew about this Marsupial Lion:

Veritasium

This channel is very popular so you may already know it. The popularity is well deserved. I especially enjoy it because there are topics that I have never thought about or knew about. A great example is this math problem video that I never knew existed before watching this video:

Sci Show

Going from popular to popular is this channel powered by Green power. Or I suppose Hank Green power.

Practical Engineering

To be honest, out of all STEM-related fields often civil engineering is the field that I have the least curious questions about. But this channel helps promote me to think about it. Similar to Steve Mould, one of the greatest strengths of this channel is the great demonstrations by Grady Hillhouse.

Adam Ragusea

Food is chemistry. That statement is one of the reasons I highly enjoy Adam Ragusea’s videos, especially around food science.

For a strange side note: I love the ad transitions.

vastava

I haven’t talked about data science on my list so far, so here is my data science pick. The channel takes a unique and interesting way to explore pop culture while explaining models, algorithms, and more.

Plus, they are on Medium:

Slow Mo Guys

This is stretching, but it is interesting to visually see the world around us.
