A Journey to the End of the Universe


Could humans ever travel to other galaxies within their lifetime? The immense scale of the Universe seems to prohibit such voyages, after all the nearest galaxy is so far away that it takes light itself — the fastest thing in the Universe — 2.5 million years to complete the trip. Remarkably, there is a trick that might allow humans to accomplish this feat — join us today as we step onboard the constantly accelerating spaceship!

NASA Live Stream - Earth From Space LIVE Feed | ISS tracker


Thanks for watching Space Videos: Live video of Earth from space — as seen from the Nasa ISS live stream aboard the International Space Station.

— Watch our latest video — The Sun — Our Dynamic Star
www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUuHA9WbVCY
— The International Space Station — ISS — circles the earth at 240 miles above the planet, on the edge of space in low earth orbit.

The station is crewed by NASA astronauts as well as Russian Cosmonauts and a mixture of Japanese, Canadian and European astronauts as well.

The Expedition 64 Crew are:
Kate Rubins
Victor Glover
Soichi Noguchi
Sergey Ryzhikov
Michael Hopkins
Shannon Walker
Sergey Kud-Sverchkov

Beautiful views of planet Earth seen from the ISS. As seen from the Nasa space video ISS live stream — A real astronaut view of Earth!

THIS WILL SHOW LIVE and PRE-RECORDED FOOTAGE — depending on signal from the station or if the ISS is on the night side of Earth.

When the feed is live the words LIVE NOW will appear in the top left hand corner of the screen.
As the Space Station passes into a period of night every 45 mins video is unavailable — during this time, and other breaks in transmission, recorded footage is shown.
When back in daylight the live stream of earth will recommence

Thanks for watching with us on Space Videos — were grateful to be able to share these wonderful views of our home —
This ISS live feed of planet earth from space is courtesy of Nasa Earth Viewing Cameras aboard the international space station. The station is crewed by #NASA astronauts as well as Russian Cosmonauts and a mixture of Japanese, Canadian and European astronauts as well.

Before you ask —
Why cant we see the stars?

The cameras have a low light exposure for viewing Earth in daylight, so no stars are seen on the feeds, although the Sun, Moon and Venus can be seen. The Earth or moon on these videos is many hundreds of thousands of times brighter than the brightest stars and the cameras shoot at 60 frames per second — with an exposure that allows us to get a good view of the Earth. This exposure is too short to capture stars which are incredibly faint compared to the brightness of the planet. (Its down to photography rather than conspiracy!)

What do those different screens mean?

The bottom left screen shows photos of Earth taken by ISS astronauts.
The middle screen shows the current position of the Space Station (the large white H shape!)
The bottom right will is a 2nd live cam which will display timelapse video when the live stream is not available.

www.nasa.gov The ISS passes into the dark side of the earth for roughly half of each of its 90 minute orbits. During this time no video is available. We would recommend that you check out some recorded footage while you wait — click the link above.

Four Dimensional Maths: Things to See and Hear in the Fourth Dimension - with Matt Parker


Мэтт Паркер, комик и математик, в этой лекции показывает, как четырехмерные фигуры появляются в 3D мире, и показывает, возможно, самую ботанскую в мире вязаную шапку!

Узнайте, как сделать сердечки из петли Мёбиуса, 4d рамки из питьевых соломинок и очистителей труб, и другие математические трюки в этом интересном разговоре Мэтта Паркера. Мэтт объясняет, как узнать, что кто-то бросает в вас 4d кубы, а также то, что происходит, когда ваша мама вяжет трехмерную тень четырехмерного пончика, чтобы носить её на голове, в этой веселой беседе о проблемах визуализации четвертого измерения.

Мэтт Паркер был австралийским школьным учителем, прежде чем он переехал в Лондон, где он работает как комик и математический коммуникатор. Он пишет книги, появляется на радио и в телевизионных шоу, способствует газетам, посещает школы и дает комедийные шоу.

Why is the Apple Calendar so broken?


UPDATE: I’m hearing reports of calendar apps crashing quite severely. Please only experiment on non-vital apps as you could hypothetically lose data stored in them! But apparently if the app crashes and restarts don’t fix it: a forced restart will.

Proceed with caution, at your own risk, and report any findings!

The 10,000 Domino Computer


Matt Parker and a team of Domino Computer Builders balanced over 10,000 dominoes in a carefully designed circuit. The result was a Domino Computer capable of automatically adding numbers. It can take any two four-digit binary numbers and return the five-digit binary sum.

Its a computer, made of dominoes.
