What Shape Are Black Holes? Yes.
What shape is the event horizon of a black hole? Well, the answer to that question changes if our universe is hiding an extra dimension (or more). Black holes could come in an infinite number of shapes — including a precisely spinning...

TED-ED: What in the world is topological quantum matter?
David Thouless, Duncan Haldane, and Michael Kosterlitz won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2016 for discovering that even microscopic matter at the smallest scale can exhibit macroscopic properties and phases that are topological. But -...

Who cares about topology? (Inscribed rectangle problem): Topology - Part 1 of 3
This is an absolutely beautiful piece of math. It shows how certain ideas from topology, such as the mobius strip, can be used to solve a slightly softer form of an unsolved problem in geometry.

What is space and how do we study it Crash Course Geography
Today we're going to talk about SPAAAAAACE, but not like stars and satellites and stuff. Instead, we're going to talk about geographic space. In geography, we can look at the world and the places and spaces we inhabit with four distinct...
