For the fans who didn't watch all the way to the end: we've been having a bit of trouble with the YouTube algorithm and we need your help! Since our comment response livestream, we've noticed that YT isn't sharing our videos as much with our subscribers. So we're asking our subscribers to 1. switch their subscriptions from "PERSONAL" to "ALL" (just click on the subscribe button and you'll see it) and 2. Watch new episodes as soon as they can! <br><br>Selecting "ALL" ensures that YT actually sends you ALL the Space Time videos to your home page and watching early makes it more likely that YT shares the video with the larger Space Time community. Thanks for your continued support!

I'm a 56 year old electrical/computer engineer and long time "physics enthusiast". As such, I've been aware of the existence of superfluidity for a long time, but this is the first time I've encountered an explanation of the underlying cause of the phenomenon. Excellent! Thank you, Dr. O'Dowd and PBS Space Time!

I’ve said it before, and I’m saying it again: PBS Space Time is one of the greatest shows I’ve ever seen. Not just on YouTube. Y’all are the absolute best.

Dude... This was a serious lightbulb moment for me. Fermions taking on the qualities of bosons at larger scales. This has given me a much deeper understanding of those phenomena. Thank you!

When the ultra-non-provocative <i>PBS Space Time</i> is having problems with the algorithm, you know YT is going the wrong way. ⬇

I’m still paying off my bachelor physics degree where I took an entire course on surface physics and superfluidity/superconductivity. This video did better at explaining the phenomena in 15 mins than a full semester of my German big-brain professors

Gotta love the random YT algorithm punishments!

This channel is such a gem, I'm glad it exists.

I've really appreciated the recent explanations of fermions and bosons, and statistical mechanics.

I really like how you showed clips of a superfluid. It really helps me to get the visual and understand.
