Thank you for such a wonderful and detailed overview ! During math and natural sciences classes, both at high-school and university (in Russia, Germany and US) I always wondered about who were all these great mathematicians and other scientists - what kind of people were they, and how did science integrate in their "daily" life, but little light was shed on that. .. I was deeply amazed to learn from this and other such enthusiastic documentaries that many of the scientists knew each other quite well, exchanged letters and some were distant relatives and/or good friends (despite barriers in distance, language and cultural differences). While I was born and raised in Saint-Petersburg and lived the other part of my life in Germany - i was especially curious about why would I often hear names of "foreign" mathematicians in association with that city? .. Only thanks to you and such videos I could finally satisfy my childhood's curiosity! I wish that in math and other classes teachers would devote time telling how one great scientist was related to another, as this helps greatly to grasp the material as whole, make connections between seemingly discrete and unrelated topics, and sometimes even better understand the nuances of a particular formula and its origins! Thank you so much, .. looking forward to hear more insightful overviews from you!
If there was room for improvement/perfection or simply "I wish" scenario: - please, include at the end of the video (or somewhere in-between) a sort of time-arrow (either complete or progressing so far) with major milestones and dates of corresponding event in that person's life. I belive, this would also help better see the count/distance/relationship of those events, and in that way visually keep track of those events in mind.
Why is this channel so underrated. It's interesting to watch during quarantine.i encourage you to make video in daily basis .goo job 👍
Among the best content I found on youtube

Very interesting; I didn't know about this scientist. Thank you!
Very interesting content. Hope you make it very far! - Your Dusty Nuts Boi xD
