- av4rice, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20The best drawings are done after hitting your head ON the toilet. You've gotta think fourth dimensionally, Marty
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13Scientists' sketches are rarely masterpieces.
- gaijin, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11Well, I can make a hat or a brooch or a...
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Surprisingly good and concise though...
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I EXPECT TO HAVE HIGH DEF 1080i PICTURES!!
- diggdong, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10Jus saying ...most of these drawings were done on the toliet.
- MuZiKMafia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Well, this sure is quite interes....
*head explodes* - deadbeatpoet, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Digg, because these were done on the toilet. ;)
- sedawk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Agreed.
Love Kip. Hate real media. I thought this was about the future -- not the past. - XxUNDEROATHxX, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5What can you make of these?
- schroduggity, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I HATE RM.
I really wanted to listen to it as well. - Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Overhead sketches for some professors lectures.
Some of them are pretty hard to decipher without the accompanying lecture, though. - jdwusami, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4The comment about superstring theory i do not know if he covered it in the lecher because i did not listen to it but it states that our quarks up and down are made of 8-D strings that vibrate at different frequency's which creates the up and down quarks that make up our protons, neutrons, and the electrons are quarks. The reason that it is still a theory is that we can not do 8-D simultaneous calculus. If this theory is true then we could unite in theory General Relativity, Newtonian mechanics, and Quantum mechanics so that you could modify gravity using electricity which would provide true anti-gravity but then what is to stop us from finding out what makes the "superstrings" on a 10-D level. You can just keep going and if "superstring" is wrong then where do we go for the GUT?
We use General Relativity when dealing with things on a macro scale like planets and gravity. Then there is Newtonian mechanics which works well most of the time as long as you do not get too big or too small. When you get too small that is where Quantum mechanics starts up with very very small things like photons of light which is like a highly condensed "packet" of energy (which is why E=MC2 works because mass is created because everything travels in waves and in the troughs and crest when you approach C (where C = approximately 3e to the 8th m/s) the energy begins to condense to form particles) There is also a way for energy to escape from a black hole. It has to do with matter and anti matter but i do not have the time to go into that. On interesting question is will out universe keep expanding or will we have a big crunch like the big bang but in revers? This all has to do with dark matter. I could just keep going but i will not.
Here is a question for anyone to answer what is the shortest distance between 2 points. I will post the answer later. - Toast1185, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Our sun will not super nova, it would need to be 1.5 times its current mass. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernova)
- stou, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3typical theoretician transparencies =)
- subscribtion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Interesting. On a side note, I saw this show on the History channel today about the end of our planet. They showed some pretty awesome simulations of what would happen if a black hole was in close proximity of the Earth. It was pretty cool looking IMHO.
- jdwusami, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I understand but everyone knows what i mean when i say super nova.
- justintsmith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I agree. The Doc Brown method is key.. Otherwise we might never have witnessed the flux capacitor!
- BuckFush, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I like the dude hanging out in the black hole
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Quantum Fuzzballs? http://online.kitp.ucsb.edu/online/plecture/thorne/oh/22.gif
Where are the 4th Dimension Dust Bunnies? - kevogod, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"Feb 24, 1999" from the page
- Jugalator, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The lecture is fortunately there as well though, just not video, but so far it's been a great lecture even without video and just audio.
Definitely digging this one. - Ramtech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1ohh i love it when people put these drawings on sites... put 2 and 2 together to get a whole... and you have a theory :)
- jdwusami, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Yes it is cool that is called a Lorenz transformation. What happens is as your velocity increases to C (where C is your limit) you become more massive, time slows down, and you become longer in the direction of travel. At C you become more massive then the universe which is why we can not achieve light speed.
- achoo5000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1geodesics minimize the space-time interval.
- Jugalator, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1lol, gotta love Hawking's thumb as signature for not being able to write :-)
I always liked his subtle humor popping up here and there. - jdwusami, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The 4th Dimension is Time.
- macamatition, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I have a really great book called How to build a time machine by Paul Davis. It's not really how to build one but more about ways to travel through time. it talks in low scientific terms (not quite lamence terms though) .Its really cool. Time runs more slowly on an airplane then on earth,pretty cool huh.
- Brickster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Humor or physical handicap?
- Sugaruss, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Link to audio other then real media?
- jdwusami, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Yes well when our sun supper novas it is just small enough to where earth will not be enveloped by it but it would be like our entire sky was the sun and everything would burn up.
- jdwusami, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I do not know why it did not put all of my post. Anyway the 4th dimension is time and time is parallel to the length width and height at the same time which is why a hypercube looks so funny on 2-D paper. I could not draw it.
- Clark3934, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2"This? Why, I can make a hat or a brooch or a pterodactyl.."
- jdwusami, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I forgot to say that Quantum mechanics also deals with the duality of light.
- brianbb98, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0In the year two thousand.......
- yubpro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0...boiling in the cosmic soup.
- ihate2reg4u, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Media player classic.
- justintsmith, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1shortest distance between two points is zero, if space could be folded anyways
- jezzball, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0is there a difference?
it seems like we can't laugh at anything anymore.
if people are open-minded enough,
they could find humor in any given situation.
it's not being insensitive unless you don't care about what you're talking about.
and if you don't care about it,
then why are you even talking about it in the first place?
