Expedition 30 astronaut Don Pettit uses knitting needles and water droplets to demonstrate physics in space through ‘Science off the Sphere.’ This is part of the first video in a series for a partnership between NASA and the American Physical Society to share unique videos from the International Space Station with students, educators and science fans from around the world.

New EPFL spin-off Pix4D generates 3D images from simple snapshots and drones using cloud computing and takes time into account as well. More infos at the project’s homepage.

Zooming in to the center of the Milky Way

hahanu — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 18:21:02 +0000

This zoom sequence stars with a view of the Milky Way. We zoom in towards the crowded central region, in the constellation of Sagittarius (The Archer). By shifting to an infrared red view we see through the dusty clouds in this direction and get a close up view of the objects orbiting the supermassive black hole that lies at the centre of the Milky Way. The final views show the motion of a newly-discovered gas cloud that is falling rapidly towards the central black hole.

Why we have blind spots

I’ve made a lot of videos about juggling (and will continue to!) as well as minecraft. This is the first video I’ve made about a passion of mine that’s larger than the other two combined – science! I hope to create videos which explain scientific phenomena at a well-researched middle level of detail.

I am studying cognitive neuroscience at Brown University, and the trick in this video was shown to me by Professor David Sheinberg. A big thanks goes to him for all the awesome stuff he’s taught me!

Found @ thegnome54’s channel.

The best math teacher ever

hahanu — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 05:38:06 +0000

This is a trick I did for my Nature of Math class at Biola University yesterday. I like experimenting with mixing live action with video. This one has a Thanksgiving theme.

Found from the MDWeathers channel.
