Fun with science!

Making better wind turbines… by mimicking whale flippers.

Cornstarch + Water + Subwoofer = Fun with Physics

This guy takes advantage of the Leidenfrost Effect to dip his fingers into boiling oil to retrieve fried goods and doesn’t burn himself

And finally, this looks like an awesome time. The Mythbusters are attempting to recreate the legendary Archimedes Death Ray.. and you can volunteer to help!

And in something that isn’t related to science… I love coffee. I hate pretentious baristi.

    I actually sent an email to Mythbusters to help out. They film most of their out door stuff just on the other side of the bridge here. Plus it’ll be in September and I’ll be back in San Francisco then.

    i thought mythbusters already did the death ray

  3. 3 ryptide

    Yeah, this will be their third attempt. I don’t think they’ve tried it on this scale before, though.
