wtf

@ 31:20 he says that the Vomit Commit got them zero G for testing... but the Vomit Commit DOES NOT give you zero G. It only simulates it to humans because they are enclosed by the cabin on the airplane so visually it seems like zero G. When it comes to testing materials and doing actual science experiments I don't see how that would be a viable solution for testing.

OOPS!! Did he say DOD? You know they were gonna want nukes in space. They probably have them

What Aircraft Systems are they Talking about?

Thank you very much for posting this MIT!

If humanity was headed in the right direction, this Youtube video would have 300 million hits and Lady Gaga would have 10,083.

@TigerGrumman that would be nice!

Great video, I'm running the audio in the background and it beats most music I might listen too. Good deal on YT allowing long vids.

Genius is the ability to explain a complicated thing in a way a child can understand.

[RevengeofShinobi1]

@fernfeyes A genius (plural geniuses,[1][2] adjective ingenious) is something or someone embodying exceptional intellectual ability, creativity, or originality, typically to a degree that is associated with the achievement of unprecedented insight.

@RevengeofShinobi1 I wish I understood what you said. I got this confused when I was told about intergranular corrosion to the point of exfoliation. Someone told me they were talking about a thing rusted and fall apart.

[RevengeofShinobi1]

@fernfeyes I meant it in a nice way though. It was humour.

[fernfeyes]
