Sixty Symbols [The Greatest YouTube Channel Ever]

In summary, last week, the person stumbled upon Wolfram Alpha and was amazed by it. A few days later, they discovered a YouTube channel called Sixty Symbols, dedicated to explaining physics and astronomy concepts. They claim it is the greatest channel ever and highly recommend it. They also mention another great YouTube channel, TED Talks, and the University of Nottingham's chemistry department. They express gratitude for the shared links and mention being impressed by the experiments shown in one of the videos.

Last week I found wolfram alpha by random chance and it blew my mind, a couple days later I ran across this channel on youtube, and I can't stop watching their videos.

I'm officially saying it's the greatest youtube channel ever.

You will love it, trust me. http://www.youtube.com/user/sixtysymbols

Snipped from the channel description:
This is Sixty Symbols - a channel devoted to those funny letters and squiggles used by physicists and astronomers.

We're posting videos about what they mean and how they're used - plus other interesting stuff about physics and astronomy.

Another great youtube channel, but I think everyone already knows about this one.

Just watched the one called Nobel Prize in Physics 2009. The experiment they did with fiber optics was pretty awesome. It would be really cool if I could do that myself at home lol.
