watched a vid the last day where a lady said where they beam waves from an aircraft to earth, there is new technology which can help them trace old civilizations deep in over grown jungle based on light waves. she said they have located 3 sites already.... it may be in the vid above!

(oh and that technology was developed so there would never be another vietnam.... only another afghanistan or cambodia. it can also find/locate armies in the deep jungle! )

That 16 year old is fucking amazing, i lost my mother a couple of years ago from pancreatic cancer (she was 62 years old), this kids invention could have given her another 20+ years.
A Noble winner in the making.

true.... what i like most is when he was plugging the idea and was quashed by the medical minds bar one, if he gets answers from keep asking questions he ll make them all look like fools....as you said if he follows up on this (and the idea isn t bought out) it could be revolutionary to mankind. prevention before cure!

I tell my daughter all the time, if you do not think something is right, question it and never be afraid to do so.
She is 9 and lately crossed paths with her teacher, having talked to her teacher, she (the teacher) now understands that my girl was not being a smartarse, but wanted put her point of view across.
All good now :)

I love watching youtube vids that explain science in an entertaining way (instead of wasting an hour or so watching shite on tv).
So i am asking you guys to post your favourite science vids in here.
Here are a couple of my favourites.

The first on is part two, but very funny and informative,

Started watching the first vid (interupted by the arsenal game). Got about 30 mins in....really enjoyed it. I shall finish watching tomorrow

Part one is very good to, each of the speakers tells a story about science, i will post it up if you wish.

Great thread POM

I will put it up anyway, part 1

I love anything on space. Short vid but blows my mind everytime

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEheh1BH34Q[/youtube]



Might not be classified as scientific....but awesome vid nevertheless

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCYZZPwJr_c[/youtube]

Both great vids. I wasn't expecting the first one to be any good but it's staggering the size differences.

The second video, how absolutely, completely and utterly batshit mental would you have to be to do that!

For Skashion, you posted that you did not know much about Neil deGrasse Tyson, here is a great interview with him, very moving when he talks about his inner struggle to become an Astrophysicist against the "cultural expectations" of his fellow black friends.

C'mon guys, post some of your favorites.
