- rramadass 5mo agoPBS Space Time is a fantastic youtube channel with short videos on Science. Hosted by Dr. Matt O'Dowd (https://www.mattodowd.space/ https://www.mattodowd.space/) the graphics and narration are to the point and comprehensible to the average person. Relevant to this thread is its series of 5 videos titled "The Quantum Vacuum and Hawking Radiation" which deal with Vacuum Energy/Zero-Point Energy etc. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvgZqGxF3eo&list=PLsPUh22kYmNAHB1W2_Ka2F83sObdczwKr https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvgZqGxF3eo&list=PLsPUh22kYm...
