GoPro going through a radiation source.

Original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7H9SA8XCHug

Another by the same guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P35G6oI6x-8

Basically, the radiation is made up of electrons that can pass through matter, most of the time. Sometimes though, they collide with it. When an electron hits the image sensor or microphone it releases a jolt of energy into the electronics which registers as either a bright pixel or random noise in the audio.

ridiculously high radiation tints glass yellow, i dont understand the cracking though.

>being this plebian

electromagnetic (gamma) radiation is massless, being made of photons

alpha radiation is made of helium-4 atoms and beta radiation is made of electrons. they have mass but can only penetrate thin layers of material before eventually hitting something and stopping. theres also neutron radiation, but it only comes from fission or fusion

correct me if i'm wrong, but i think most of that is water vapor

>>1437145
this isn't even my final form!

>>1440627

It's practically all water vapor, yes. The engines burn hydrogen and oxygen, making water. There's a water curtain to dampen the sheer noise so it doesn't damage the structure. Absurdly hot steam + shit tons of regular water = clouds.

>>1440955
Yeah
I think the video explained that there is a lot of tension created by the rapid cooling of the outer part of the bulb after it hits the water and then the still hot inner part cools shortly afterwards and wanting to shrink, but can't really do that because the outer part is already solid. So as a result, the bulb is really strong, but at the same time really brittle and all it takes is a flick of the tail and the thing releases all of that tension in a shower of tiny fragments.

Or something like that.

Just sticking with saturn rockets would have been fine. Better in fact. Cheaper, more reliable, easier to test+modify, faster launch schedules, less restrictive launch conditions, able to reach polar orbits, less challenger explosions. Whats more most of NASA was aware of its many drawbacks well before the program was put into effect, the idea of reusable space vehicles based on 1970's tech was and is a foolish idea.

If the US had have stuck to plain disposable rocket boosters there would have been far more funding available for more launches, experiments and satellites. Likely the US would be much further ahead on its exploration of the solar system and other planets. Not to mention its crushing impact on other US based launch systems (NASA forced all domestic, internal, and DoD payloads to the shuttle until 2003).

Proof of concept vehicles, especially in the aerospace industry, are rarely cost-efficient or the 'perfect tool for the job'. It provided a platform to test new designs and technology while serving a practical purpose.

The first jet engine was a piece of shit, but we had to start somewhere.

I didn't do that at all, I categorized it broadly with other aerospace proof-of-concept vehicles.

>>1442869

> If we'd just stuck with old tech we would save money

And we'd never develop anything new.

NASA isn't a for-profit business, they're trying to develop new technology. The shuttle was a fantastic first try, and things developed for it are now standard throughout the industry.

And even if you want to go by number of incidents by design rather than specific craft, the Soyutz has had more things go wrong than the shuttle, and again they were one time use ships compared to the shuttles which flew dozens of missions each.

Grid shaped launch pattern, 50 miles between each nuke, every land mass available. This kills the humans. And probably a lot of the animals. If it didn't kill literally everyone, it would basically send us back to the stone age.

I love that stuff. That blue glow is actually a light 'sonic boom' the electrons emitted from the reactor are moving faster than the photons emitted while moving through the water.

>>1450726
who cares

>>1450726

Couple things.

First off, nukes wouldn't be launched in a grid pattern. Dozens are sent toward major targets, while rural areas are often spared any.

Secondly, there are things called "Mountains" which are basically giant blocks of stone that really do a number on blast effectiveness.

Thirdly, you're assuming every country coordinated to intentionally destroy the world. In reality, the nuclear countries would target each other and leave most of African and South America completely untouched.

If you wanted to wipe out humanity you'd be much better off dumping botulin into the oceans at key current points, or re-introducing small pox in major metro areas. Nukes are not nearly as dangerous as hippies make them out to be.

This. Nukes are powerful sure, but they won't end the world. It would take a massive global coordinated effort to destroy all humans with nukes. There are much faster, and more efficient ways of dealing death and wiping the population. Nukes aint it. Nukes are just what most people see as the threat because that is what movies tell them, and its the easiest for smaller minds to latch onto and be afraid of.

>>1456268

Though it's worth noting that if you're goal is just to mess things up, just a handful of high altitude nuclear blasts could destroy basically every electronic device on earth. I think just 3 modern hydrogen bombs is enough to EMP all of North America.

We spent a full week in my nuclear diplomacy class discussing exactly how stupid and unrealistic that film was.

To go over the specifics:

Firstly, nukes are detonated at altitude to maximize blast effectiveness. Fallout is generated from ground detonations, as unless the radioactive material has dust to bind to in the first few seconds it exists, it decays rapidly. So unless literally thousands of warheads malfunction and plow several feet into the ground while surviving enough to detonate, rather than going off at several hundred feet like planned, there won't be much fallout at all.

Secondly, nukes are specifically NOT supposed to leave radioactive material behind. The whole point is to transform the radioactive material into energy. Leftover radioactive material means the bomb didn't work properly. Maybe if we had a nuclear war using replicas of the Trinity weapon we'd have enough leftover radioactive material to cause something resembling a nuclear winter, but with modern weapons, it simply isn't feasible.

But most importantly is the difference between short-term impacts and the idea that nuclear winter would last more than a few years, or be global in scope. Most population centers are in the northern hemisphere, and now that South Africa has renounced nuclear weapons, there are no major targets below the equator. Nuclear war would cause untold hundreds of millions of deaths, to be sure -- but mainly through starvation caused by the irradiating of farmland downwind from blast areas rendering it fallow for 2-3 years. Dust would get into the atmosphere, but not from the blast as much as from widespread fires caused by light from the blast simply flashing forests to ignite. This dust would lower sunlight but would not be radioactive or do lasting damage to the ozone layer.

Basically, you COULD destroy the world, but not through war -- you'd have to get every nuclear nation to work together, which makes no sense.

probably just drawing stuff on paper, then using fourier transforms to turn it into a programmable sound

I'm not really impressed by that at all. If he really wanted to impress me maybe he could take an A Capella track, then add his own beats, and have the oscilloscope reading of his beats + vocals give text lyrics to the song.

Or take a reading of a brother's grimm fairy, add beats, and in the beats encode an oscilloscope animation of the plot of the fairy tale

Don't most bombs achieve around 90% fission even when they work completely as designed though?

I fail to see any point in them landing the rockets like that

they sacrifice a ton of payload capacity for the fuel to land vertically.

additionally, the space shuttle showed us that rocket engines need SO MUCH maintenance between flights if reused that it's more practical to just build new ones

>>1450636
the formula is also the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose, with caffeine just along for the ride for some reason

this leads me to believe that the rest of this video is also probably bullshit and wrong.

>>1442829
>considered so only in hindsight

nah, it was a failure from the start. the turnaround for flight readiness was supposed to be much faster; the original design specifications were for weekly launches, which would have been economical.

when it became clear that just wasn't possible, the shuttle became absurdly expensive to operate, and the reusable spacecraft became more expensive than using an new craft for every spaceflight.

>>1457066

>>1442330
not equation but somewhat of an explanation ...

you have a start point X, missile position Y and a target Z. the missle has coordinates from X and Z that it gets via GPS. to calculate Y you need the a couple of things:

distance from X to Z
speed, time and direction of the object

by knowing in which direction at what speed your missle is going, you can subtract the directional distance with that of the target. you set a condition that checks if the subtraction Z - Y is greater 0, if this condition is true, the missile is not at/over the target. so it knows where it is or where it isn't, etc, etc

it's a pretty bad explanation and there is a lot of things to cover, but my math is to shit to explain stability theory or other methods and mechanics that are required to make a rocket/missile work.

>>1458819
The space shuttle would have been far more reusable if the design wasn't hobbled to shit by idiots demanding changes.

I know that there's a specific psychological condition that people who go into space get when they see Earth from a distance where they understand how big, yet small it is and want to protect it.

I wonder what would happen if a human were to actually see one of the gas giants in person? Would it break us or would our brains not be able to even process it?

This; the two of them are handling the fact that their house and neighbours are destroyed in an instant. We have no complete reference point for what happened before he hit play, nor do we know what happens after this footage; for all we know, he could have then got into hysterics himself after actually seeing the damage around them. If anything, the woman's logic is that, even though their house has been destroyed, they'll be utterly helpless once they go out in the open.

People don't really fully comprehend what its like to be face to face with who awful tornadoes are until they take away what they themselves own.

>notice how they threw out the 30+ year old, well worn, no longer maintainable space shuttle like a competent agency, though?

ftfy

Columbia was the wake up call that they could no longer maintain them the way they needed to be to keep them viable. Two accidents does not a failed concept make. The two shuttle accidents were literally maintenance errors and not general failings of the design or concept.

>>1446032
So, the shuttle is the worse craft because it held more people?

not exactly science, but cool engineering. "Big wind" fire extinguisher, built to extinguish burning oilwells in kuweit. From hungary, two MiG 21 engines strapped to a T34 (or 62?). The concept is an evolution of some soviets using a single MiG 15 engine strapped to a truck to blow out smaller oil well fires.
