Celebrating nature, science, space and the human race, BBC Earth brings you face to face with heart-pounding action, mind-blowing ideas and the sheer wonder of being part of this amazing planet we call home.
BBC Earth is the official channel of well-known Sir David Attenborough series such as Planet Earth, Frozen Planet and Blue Planet II. It is also where you can find fantastic nature and wildlife documentaries such as Life of Mammals and classics like Planet Dinosaur.
BBC Earth Kids combines fun facts, amazing creatures, and a whole load of cool stuff about our planet.
It has some of the best clips from the BBC’s natural history programmes, chosen specially for our most curious explorers.
This bi-weekly show from the producers of Crash Course is all about gradeschool science. We'll look at Earth, Habitats, Space, Chemical Reactions, Engineering, and much much more. Join us every Tuesday and Thursday for new uploads.
This series is beginning with 5th grade science, so we'll be delving into Earth Science, Physical Science, Biology, Geography, Engineering, and Astronomy. Have a look at our playlists on each subject!
The Action Lab is a channel dedicated to performing exciting experiments and answering questions you never thought to ask!
Videos explaining things with optimistic nihilism.
We are a small team who want to make science look beautiful. Because it is beautiful.
Currently we make one animation video per month. Follow us on Twitter, Facebook to get notified when a new one comes out.

There's a lot of bad science on YouTube, especially medicine, with quacks and clowns peddling garbage.
Offbeat topics you won't find elsewhere, enriched with a government-mandated dose of humour. Trained in Cambridge; now PhD-ing in London.

Learn neuroscience and psychology the easy way. It’s not rocket surgery, it’s brain science!
Alie and Micah created Neuro Transmissions because learning about the brain doesn’t have to be scary, you know? It also doesn’t have to be boring. We say “no thanks” to hour-long lectures and 10-minute videos of clip art. Instead, we simply break down the impossibly complex organism living in our heads - the brain. Ever want to know how a neuron works? We got that. How about why some people are trolls on the internet? We got that too. What about how to use Jedi mind tricks in real life? Yep, we got that too.

Astronomy, exoplanets, astroengineering, the search for extraterrestrial life & intelligence, futurism and interstellar travel.
The Cool Worlds Lab http://coolworlds.astro.columbia.edu based at the Department of Astronomy, Columbia University, is a team of astronomers seeking to discover and understand alien worlds, particularly those where temperatures are cool enough for life, led by Professor David Kipping. Content is primarily written, produced and presented by David Kipping, but regularly features his students and visitors as guest presenters.

This channel focuses on exploring concepts in science with an emphasis on futurism and space exploration, along with a healthy dose of science fiction.
While we explore many concepts and technologies that are far beyond us now, we try to keep everything inside the bounds of known science or major theories.

The element of truth
The name Veritasium is a combination of the Latin word for truth, Veritas, and the suffix common to many elements, -ium. This creates Veritasium, an "element of truth".
