Because Science

Because Science is an American YouTube channel, which publishes videos using real world math and science concepts to analyze, measure, solve, and make sense of pop culture quandaries in comics, video games, movies, and tv shows and also occasionally real world things, such as murder hornets and the reason your fingers wrinkle in water. 
The channel was created in August of 2015, when the show Because Science was seperated from the Nerdist channel and since then has amassed well over a million subscribers and more than 122 million combined channel views. 
Examples of videos includes Can You Uppercut Someone Off the Ground, How a Mass Effect Omni-Tool Would be a Lightsaber in Real Life, Should You Panic About Murder Hornets, How Much Does Your "Ghost" Weigh, and Real Life CUPID is TERRIFYING, among many others. 
The episodes were written and presented by Kyle Hill until 28th February of 2020, when he left Because Science for unknown reasons. After that Because Science entered a trasitional phase, in which they published old footage with Kyle Hill or videos, either containing just writing and animation or voiced by Dr. Moo, who was previously presenting an irregularly published show on Because Science called "Because Space". The videos in this transitional phase usually were shorter and went into less detail.
==Formats==
Before the seperation of Kyle Hill from Because Science, there were muliple formats published on a schedule:
===Because Science===
The main episodes (published on every Thursday), usually between 10 and 30 minutes, covered many topics from mostly comic book and movie related content to real world topics, always applying science to them. While the majority of these videos dealt with physics, other sciences were represented as well. These videos were well researched and went very deep into the subjec matter.
===Footnotes===
Footnotes (published on every Tuesday), usually between 10 to 30 minutes long, was a format in which Kyle pointed out some comments on the previous episode of Because Science and adressed interesting though experiments, additions or corrections. Every episode he would award two people with the title "Super Nerd", one for the "nerdiest" correction and one for the otherwise "nerdiest" comment.
===Because Science Live===
Every Friday Kyle woud livestream for about 20 minutes, answering questions from the live chat.
==Lore==
During his run as host, Kyle Hill build up a lore around multiple characters. Kyle Hill was a being of unspecified species, stuck in a black void, from which the main episodes were broadcasted. Other characters include multiple other "incarnations" of Kyle Hill (of which some died), most notably the one answering questions in Footnotes. 
Kyle Hill was possibly a villain. While stating that he is not a villain was a reoccurring theme, a lot of episodes had topics which could be useful for a villain. This also matched with the commissioning of assassinations of commenters who asserted him being a villain. This happened regularly in Footnotes, where he would order a creative way to assassinate the commenter, followed by excuses like "I was just subscribing to a magazine".
This Lore was continued by Kyle Hill after he left Because Science on his new channel Kyle Hill.
