Summary
The tutorial covers 5 popular ways to make HTTP requests using Python, including `requests`, `urllib3`, `httplib2`, `httpx`, and the built-in `urllib` module. The author uses NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day API to demonstrate how to send GET requests with each method, storing the API key securely in a `.env` file.
