guys, how the FUCK does this thing float? i dont really understand how beyonce works to begin with, but this thing just looks to heavy am i right?
I'll be honest, I don't fully understand how beyonce works either.
I raise
>>6668161
It displaces a volume of water equal to it's weight, that load is actually hollow so it can float on it's own too.
Parent challenge:
For those of you with/around kids, give one a Moebius strip and tell them to color one side black but leave the other side white.
Report back with what happens.
damn. i wish i could do this
i dont want kids anytime soon but when i do have kids i will for sure do this!

Why the anger?
Einstein put all his theories on paper before getting assassinated by his maid. Tesla lost funding from the banks because he wanted to spread free energy.
Why doesn't science care about Humanity's prosperity?

That question is stupid, you're stupid. Why does OP shitpost 2deep4u threads on /sci/ to be edgy? Now that's a question.
Sup /sci/
/m/ here. Why are bipedal robots so hard to build IRL?
They aren't that hard to build. They just move slowly, since they have so much mass.
Also if it falls over, how would it get back up? You would need a crane, or three.

Power storage or creating power.
Assuming humanity wont be hit by some major catastrophe, will colonization and terraforming of Mars be inevitable?
Colonizing, yes. Terraforming, impossible to say.
Yes and yes.
>>6621147
Yes, terraforming of Mars is inevitable. The Moon will have several hundred million people living on it before this century is over. Once mankind starts expanding into the solar system the severe underpopulation problem of the species will be solved.
Might not be the most scientific thread ever, but post your best Science related WEBMs. Pic related.
can someone tell me what the brighter parts in the thrust flame is?
if you pause the webm you can sort of see it forming out of a circle
what is it?
because fuck is it cool or what
I don't really have much science related. Neither did OP, by the looks of it.
am I doing this right?
I guess I'm missing the third computation in that second problem.
you definitely can't prove the distributive laws by simple plugging in some numbers and showing it holds.
>>6637235
why not, it certainly holds.
What defect in the psychology of the human brain allows people to become attracted to anime characters?
Will it eventually be weeded out of the gene pool?
Its exactly the same thing that allows them to become attached to other human beings, so no.
Damn, I'd let that bish lick my ice cream cone if you know what I'm saying.
It's the same defect that makes people read books about the Devil's work such as Harry Potter.
Some day this country will wake up and burn all the Satanic lies and slander that we call "Fiction". Until then I can only hope you know to stay away from all that nonsense.
Do you think there's anything in the universe, in math, in physics, anywhere that I'm inherently unable to understand? No matter how much time I'm given, I would never be able to understand this idea or concept or thing simply because I'm too dumb?
>some background information to regard me personally
IQ 140+, INTJ, study physics (with relative ease compared to others), very self reflective
This question has been bothering for quite some time now. It would be really unsettling to me if there was such a kind of thing.
What is love?
>>6620927
Baby don't hurt me
>>6620927
OP here. Maybe you cannot understand love in a classical way, but I can appreciate it for what it is.
Also, first and foremost love is a feeling. And through introspection I have come to the conclusion that there is no distinction between feelings and thoughts. Feelings are most probably the very first thoughts we were able to have or to think, and thus they appear as very subtle thoughts and they're so subconscious.
Anyway, I still wonder if there's such a thing. I don't know what it would...

Can /sci/ recommend any good physics or math documentaries?
>>6622600
Yes, it is called "education".
Get some.

The first one is very good to give you some summary of the standard "what is mathematics? why is it beautiful?" stuff most teachers of mathematics want to get across.
>>6622607
What a useless reply.
What are the chances of a alien race in this universe existing that humans might actually find attractive.
Or a race that is actually genetically compatible for reproduction with humans.
I find it kinda fumy how media likes to portray aliens when the chances of finding a alien race that even remotely resembles humans is highly improbable.
The jellyfish from mas effect are more likely to be our first contact than some kind of space elf's.
>>6621304
>implying some humans won't find space jellyfish attractive
Also,
>when the chances of finding a alien race that even remotely resembles humans is highly improbable.
What are you basing that on? Convergent evolution happens here on earth, if other animals existed on another planet and were subjected to the same evolutionary pressures, it's entirely possible would produce similar adaptations.
>>6621311
I'd agree with you that a similar planet may make similar adaptations appear but there wouldn't be any guarantee that the parts would be in the same places.
Like space Mr. Potato Heads.

What is the best science (physics, math) documentary you've ever seen?
Pls an actually interesting and scientific one.
Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human
Manufacturing consent.
