This is very interesting, but I wish it went deeper. Where can I research Non-Euclidean geometry on my own?

I'm not finished it yet.
I'm sure you could pick up a book on Non-Euclidean geometry, but it is likely to be very hard to understand. I find it very difficult to find easy introductions to hard topics. That's why I write them myself.
As for doing Non-Euclidean Geometry yourself, you can do it with only a piece of paper and a pencil, but you'd be well advised to understand Euclidean geometry first, so hava a read of Euclid's elements.
