Exactly what I came to the comments section to post. Huge pet peeve of mine is "articles" that are just a YouTube video with some redundant commentary underneath that offers zero value beyond the video itself.
- codetrotter 8y agoYeah but that’s not the case here though. The commentary is interesting IMO.
- jcurbo 8y agoIn this case, though, I don't mind because Phil Plait is a well known science communicator whose articles actually add useful context. I don't mind that his article is linked (although I did go straight to the video first, but I am not the target audience for the commentary).
- JshWright 8y agoThe article goes into a great deal of detail about how the video was made, the rocket involved, various points of interest throughout the video, etc... You don't think that adds any value?
