  1. This video is an almost word-for-word translation of an article published in the canadian magazine "QuΓ©bec science" October-November 2021 edition. I hope the original author got recognition for her work!

  2. Excellent video on a really important subject! Thank you for spreading awarness on the subject. However, I'm not seeing any recognition of the original author of this article, Melissa Guillemette? I assume she must have been consulted before adapting her words to video, I'm surprise her name isn't in the rollouts

  3. Simon, why are so many of your videos being removed from your channels? The Admiral Kuznetsov Megaprojects video, the Haitian governmental collapse and the El Salvador Gang Wars Warographics videos. What is going on? Will we ever be able to see those videos again?

  4. Moderation is to slow down the neutrons as the nuclear reaction works better with slower neutrons. Control rods on the other hand are to soak up excess neutrons to control the reaction rate and prevent a runaway reaction. Otherwise great video, as usual.😁

  5. I’d really love a video on how, where, and why flash floods happen. I live in New England (northeast US) where we have a lot of rivers, and climate change has been sending stronger hurricane remnants our way.
