STEM creators are working with researchers in all 50 states to showcase ‘Science Across America’

The United States is celebrating its 250th birthday this summer, and a group of creators is turning that milestone into a celebration of science. A nonprofit called the Independent Media Initiative (IMI) is behind 50×50: Science Across America, a coast-to-coast "YouTube project" that will pair influential STEM creators with scientists from all 50 states. 50x50's mission is ambitious: Across ten days, the participating creators and their scientific collaborators will produce 50 original videos, which will be set in locations like labs, field sites, hospitals, factories, and research institutions. Those videos will arrive on YouTube in the fall of 2026. Visit Tubefilter for more great stories.
