I was really into science in elementary school and during an eclipse they kept everything inside and away from the windows. I was really pissed off because for one thing, even though I was really lucky when completing standardized tests, "don't stare at the sun for a long time" seemed pretty comprehensible to all my classmates. I've only seen a lunar eclipse, an event best described as "boring"
See how far you can go with this experiment. Instead of using only one light at the mercy of refraction, you need two lasers taking turns moving at short check-points. Point the first one at a target a hundred or so feet away. Have the second laser line-up parallel with the first laser light and have it pointing at a 2nd target a hundred feet away from the second laser. Take the first laser and move it to/near the second laser's target (2nd target) and parallel the first laser with the second one to a 3rd target. Keep doing this until you can't anymore. You'll be avoiding refraction this way, instead of using only one long light that WILL bend.
The Copenhagen Interpretation for Kids: Time comes in very small but discrete chunks and the ticking of the clock can be thought of as the next computation. After the current computation, or the current tick of the clock, BUT BEFORE THE NEXT ONE, there are infinite possibilities. But when the computation is made, when the clock makes the next tick, all those possibilities boil down to the one that happened to occur. It is like in Roulette: while the wheel is spinning, there are a certain number of possibilities. But when the wheel stops, the ball has chosen a spot and this is the collapse of the wave function. When you run Rule 30, the collapse of the wave function is the configuration that you see with your eyes after each computation. :)
I do not believe in ghosts nor in any kind of life after death. Death is the end. But if it was not, Neils Bohr can take a victory lap at the expense of Hugh Everett. :)
I've wondered if there might be some of kind of "pilot wave" that results in the perception of persistence. There might be some way to work in the phrase "spiritus insertus atoma" because it's cool and easy to understand and remember.
I saw a photo of the shadow band on Mrmbb333 and it was an unbelievably weird effect. I believe it was the leaves from the tree being shadowed. I will have to find the episode. I filmed the 2017 eclipse through the eclipse glasses and it worked well. They used the video on the local news in Portland during the sports broadcast, cause I'm a baller.

I think you have nailed it, Jeff.

Take that, Sean Carroll!
Where did I put my damn pipe?!

Hi, if I understand Tjarda Boekholt team solve 3 body problem whit black holes, if I understand prove time is irreversible.......
can't see this babble interesting children (kids and nannie goats might well be another thing)
Yes, I suppose GOAT children would appreciate the talk
