| − | '''Good Question''' is a more-or-less monthly column written by '''[[Randall|Randall Munroe]]''' in the '''[https://www.nytimes.com/section/science Science section of the New York Times]''', beginning in November 2019. The columns give serious answers to science questions, illustrated in Munroe's inimitable style.

| − | Unlike for many of their other regular columnists, the New York Times does not provide a clickable link either on the byline '''Randall Munroe''' or on the column title '''Good Question''' (though there is an '''[https://www.nytimes.com/column/good-question-randall-munroe-xkcd unlinked page]''' that offers an incomplete list of Good Question articles). The following tables are intended to correct that omission.
