Have you ever wondered what kind of astronomical object brown dwarfs are? They're too big to be a planet, yet too small to be a star. They're like the cosmic middle child. Here's everything you need to know about brown dwarfs.

Is the multiverse possible? Yes! In fact, there are 3 different kinds: Many Worlds, Eternal Inflation, and Infinite Repeating Space. They come from our most fundamental theories: general relativity and quantum mechanics.

Somewhere between 1926 and 1950, we gave up the concept of particles in favor of quantum fields. In this video, I explain the motivations for that to a non-physicist: my wife.

We all know Saturn has planetary rings, but other planets have them too. Where they come from? How are gravity and tidal forces involved? What is the Roche limit? Let's find out.

Muons are generated in the upper atmosphere due to incoming cosmic rays. Many of those muons reach the ground even though they only last an average 2.2 microseconds. How is that possible?

You might have heard that black holes suck, like literally. It's certainly a funny joke, but it isn't true. Black holes aren’t even that weird if you're far enough away. I correct this and other misconceptions with this video.

Black holes look really weird because of the way light bends around them. This video explains how that all works and why black hole images look the way they do.

The James Webb Space Telescope, or JWST, is the greatest telescope ever constructed. But between ballooning budgets, a decade and a half of launch delays, and a huge controversy over the name; getting this thing into space was a nightmare.

We can't measure the distance to astronomical objects directly, so we have to be creative. That's why we need the cosmic distance ladder. It's a serious of techniques we use to calculate astronomical distances indirectly.
