July video poll

Quantum, Quantum, Quantum in ocean wave modeling should be right up your alley.

On the subject of outdated science I have a naive question: Is the old notion of the ether so wrong, given the reality of space-time as the medium through which gravitational waves pass?

Time is one of my favourite subjects. I hope this wins.

Hi Angela! I proposed "How did Maxwell do it", but it does not appear. Is it hidden behind thought experiments?

Oh. Back in cégep one project I had to do (as part of one of the elective science classes) was to write a paper which had both an experiment and tackled the subject in terms of 2 different sciences, like chemistry and physics. Since the class that was for was astrophysics, the project (there were a few possible subjects to choose from) I picked was measuring the length of a day (so sidereal vs solar), and the "other" science I decided to use was bio, all about circadian rhythms, basically summarizing a few papers on the subject, that is how the body "measures" the day. I thought it was fun. There are tons of aspects one could dive into when it comes to time measurement... how time flies, now is that aerodynamics?

Deep impact is surprisingly not completely garbage. That said, your thoughts on Thought Experiments would certainly be interesting.

Thought experiment. Schrodinger cat, dead or not dead. Is the function arbitrary with just two values? Is the probability that the cat tunnels out of the box to appear on your shelf to knock off your favorite knick knacks too small to include?

When describing some object or feature of the Universe, Media often refer to it as being located in a constellation. My guess is that the majority of the audience don't realize that this only identifies a direction from our planetary system towards the object described, rather than in a particular location in the Universe. As if a constellation represents an are of space rather than a direction.

Insane Clown Posse should have released a song about wondering how wringing Gage blocks work, not magnets.

This is the first time I think i'm going to vote for only one topic. "Watch Deep Impact": Without giving spoilers, there's one scene that to me is one of the most emotional scenes in cinema, and I've cried every time I've watched it. It would be fun to have a livestream, with you on audio and us being able to text chat. I have no idea what the copyright rules are with it. A queer group I'm in watched "Carol" in Google meet, and we text chatted throughout. But that's a little different since we didn't record a video of it.

outdated science could be really fun if it talks about things that were good at the time, not just stupid. Such as unusually clever ancient and medieval instrumentation. Kind of like your cool video about glass. But about the instruments vs the material used in them.

oh no, I wasn't supposed to have so many entries in the poll 😂
