I like how he mentions Numberphile like it’s some small side project that probably won’t go anywhere but it’s worth mentioning

I took a look at M3 this evening, as "first light" of a new 8" reflecting telescope. Not least (for me) the feat of actually finding it in the sky with maps, finder scopes, reflex sights and some luck, to realize from this video that it is 12 billion years old, I'm thrilled to have seen it in the flesh. Great videos - more please!

It's worth coming back to these videos just to see Brady's hair

I love M3. I looked at it last night!

Professor Mike Merrifield deserved all the money! he's so cool! i learned so much from him!
 He's my most favorite professor among all of the Brady has filmed=)

Just wanted to say, "Thanks to all involved, " for this video series and the others, including the periodic table channel. It's a real treat to have all this stuff available.

[DeepSkyVideos]

@pyrea17 well, it's still pretty early for both Deep Sky Videos and Numberphile... so you haven't too much catching up to do!

Links to Brady's other channels can be found it the full drop-down video description thingy.

been following sixty symbols and periodic videos for quite some time and have been following this channel from the start. you and the people in your video are great contribution to science education.

[docsharp]

I started with Sixty Symbols, discoverded periodics table of videos, and numberphile, now I follow the 4 channels including DSV. you are doing really great job Brady!!! love you videos!

[DeepSkyVideos]

@Mrjesse451 thank you... I think you may be waiting a while for a cable network though!

[DeepSkyVideos]

@Mymetallicpotato cool... I've put links to more of my channels in the description under this video!

[covac]

I'm subscribed to all of those channels! HR diagrams really are an amazing demonstration of pattern finding in Astronomy. It's fascinating how these stars can be broken down into specific groups based on their position on the diagram. Love it!

Try to connect your channels every now and then, not too often, but for many people thats the number 1 way to find out about more channels. Recommendations and referrals from one channel to another are the BEST way to get subscribers. Dont overdo it, but since each channel accumulates new viewers on its own, do not ever forget to do it.

For each channel, a reference pointing outwards to other channels should be done every 3 months minimum. Especially dont forget the biggest ones.

[DeepSkyVideos]

@kurtilein3 wow, you gave that a lot of thought... You might be surprised how many DSV viewers are coming from elsewhere though.

Hey Brady, I've been following your work for some time and mate it is great! congratulations, Deep Sky videos are amazing, and now we have Numberphile! A feast for our neurons!

Bye from Australia

[DeepSkyVideos]

@VRfiz oh, there's quite a few of them out there! ;)

[ColinGimenez]

@DeepSkyVideos I'm subbed to all of them already. Great work!

[ColinGimenez]

Hey Brady! You can't imagine how excited I get when I see one of your channel's videos on my subscriptions list. :D
