Brain Algorithms and a Cool Experiment With a Bike

Brain Algorithms and a Cool Experiment With a Bike

The experimenter in this video shows you about decision making hardwiring in the mind by reversing the way a bicycle handle turns.  He shows you what happens when you try to ride such a bike.  Here is a comment about the video: Because bicycles are steered mostly by leaning and then stopping the turn by

Laser Cannon to Clean up Space Debris?

The game asteroids may become a reality and these scientists think a space laser may be necessary. If a team of astronomers has its way, the International Space Station will be outfitted with a spiffy laser-wielding telescope. No, no, hold on—it’s not to kill aliens or rebel civilizations. It’s to clean up a huge mess. If anything

NASA Holds a Contest to 3D Print a Space Habitat

How cool is this!  NASA is having a space oriented contest with a big prize!  Here is more about it: NASA and the National Additive Manufacturing Innovation Institute, known as America Makes, are holding a new $2.25 million competition to design and build a 3-D printed habitat for deep space exploration, including the agency’s journey

Is This Watson Machine Like The Matrix?

Is this the smartest machine on the earth and make The Matrix movie closer to science reality that science fiction?  Here is more about it: Watson,” an IBM computing system, is gearing up for a first-of-its-kind challenge—taking on human contestants on the game show Jeopardy! With a brain the size of 2,400 home computers and

Spacecraft Engine That Could Run on Aneurotic Nuclear Fusion

What is aneutronic fuel and could we use this for our own energy needs?  Here is an excerpt about the video: Here is some brief theory behind Aneutronic Fusion, a form of nuclear fusion which produces no harmful neutron radiation, eliminating the need for heavy shielding in energy plants and spacecraft engines. The reaction can

How Were These Huge Blocks Of Stone Made?

They still can’t explain it…and there is an update In Ballbek Lebanon there is a great archaeology mystery.  There are some insanely big stones that are ginormous and archaeologists can’t agree on the same historical opinion.  The narrator mentions that many archaeologists think the Romans were responsible. However, he points out that he thinks the Romans

Guy makes a volcano lightsaber at home..pretty cool

Lightsabers and lasers are awesome and here is another neat one made at home.  The home expeimenter had this to say about his device: This is a custom volcano inspired saber I built for my youngest brother using TCSS hilt pieces with a custom paint job by me to achieve a rocky, weathered look. Internals

Do You Know the Ancient Mysteries Of The Rosetta Stone?

it may be THE most mysterious artifact ever… The Rosetta Stone remains one of archaeology’s biggest mysteries and it is not often discussed.  The translation of it has baffled many for centuries.  It was also a greatly contested object between different countries, and some of that is still taking place! Here is what one commenter

Quantum Levitation With Frozen Disc..Absolutely Awesome

What is quantum levitation?  Some call it the Meissner effect and here is more from wikipedia: The Meissner effect is the expulsion of a magnetic field from a superconductor during its transition to the superconducting state. The German physicists Walther Meissner and Robert Ochsenfeld discovered this phenomenon in 1933 by measuring the magnetic field distribution

Nanotechnology, Quantum Computers, and The Future

Here is a really cool video that examines our future and some of the various technoligies effecting us: Nanotechnology, Quantum Computers, Cyborg Anthropology a future tech documentary.  All things we see are made up of atoms. The study of, and the ability to control, those atoms and molecules is through the field of nanoscience and

Did They Discover Antimatter in a Thunderstorm?

There has been a lot of talk about antimatter, not just in Superman comics but also in regards to the CERN collider.  However, there may have been antimatter in an actual thunderstorm and this article sheds light on the findings: Although powerful storms have been known to produce positrons — the antimatter versions of electrons

Guy Makes a Bold Statement About Vortex Based Mathematics

This is some really intelligent stuff.  Although it may be considered  a bit “out there” the speaker in the video claims to really have rediscovered some underlying math principals that would lead to incredible technological progress.  Here is some of the description from the video: Vortex Based Mathematics, THE SOURCE of the non decaying spin

Time Travel Tunnel ALLEGEDLY Discovered in China

this is veeery far out there… There are rumors of a time travel tunnel in the East.  Is this true or is it bogus?  Here is what the video maker had to say about this phenomenon: Does a Time Travel Tunnel exist in China? The “time tunnel” as locals call it, mysteriously dial back the

3D Metallic Plating Device for 3D Printed Objects

Orbit1.co which recently launched a kickstarter project is absolutely rad if this thing works.  The 3D printing revolution is just getting started and one of the neat parts and more expensive is the metal plating of parts.  Companies such as X one and others get a hefty sum for plating and 3D printing/manufacturing metal parts. 

This Guy Made a Laser Drone at Home..Seriously

Finally someone makes a laser drone at home. In all seriousness, this is pretty inventive and this home experimenter had this to say about the device: Not for sale, no how to, don’t even ask for what I used. Just too stupid, too dangerous. Well at least he’s honest and absolutely, do not try this
