Scott Manley is someone who fell into YouTube because he felt a deep compelling need to teach people orbital mechanics and rocket science so they could play Kerbal Space Program, now, years later the gaming videos are less important and the pure science is the main thrust. My degrees are all in Physics and Astronomy, so much of the rocket science and engineering I've learned is self taught, always learning, always teaching. I used to do this as a hobby, along with my day job in software development, but that recently came to an end and I'm really appreciating everyone who has chosen to support

Cowboy Space had a big media event on Monday night, and while they presented some cool ideas about integrating a datacenter payload into the second stage of a rocket many people thought their goal of a launch by 2028 was overly ambitious and others questioned the concept entirely.

The Moon’s surface is a dated record of the early Solar System, but only if you know which rocks and which craters actually mark the boundaries. This video walks through the geological history from the magma ocean and the flotation crust, through the big basins and the revised late heavy bombardment, the mare floods, and the young rayed craters.
