[SDaly77]

Great stuff!

[richwaight]

Good video!

[Hidd3nDeath]

stop wasting money on mc donalds and get that telescope finished!

[soggy9]

well done new scientist O.O

[purple3lights]

We loved the bouncing water droplets! :D

[GreatVomitto]

boring

[007hor]

@GreatVomitto, go and kill yourself you waste of skin.

[GreatVomitto]

@007hor you should already do that

[007hor]

@GreatVomitto, I see you struggle with English too.

[GreatVomitto]

@007hor I bet you are cool guy but has to dispel tension in the internet.

[007hor]

@GreatVomitto, I don't even know what that means. Was that a compliment, or are you saying I vent my tension through Youtube?

To put it bluntly, if you found this "boring", you're the sort of person who should be put in a box and fired towards the sun.

[GreatVomitto]

@007hor Definitely, you have some kind of problem with yourself. Maybe lit up some candles, take relaxing bath. There are so many things to do but definitely raging over the internet wont help you.

[007hor]

@GreatVomitto, raging? Yes, you are an idiot. I'm finished here.

[GreatVomitto]

@007hor It's a shame you finished, You started making progress.

[kennethstudstill]

Its ultraviolet not infer-blue

[darkwolve16]

i hope i never have to piss out a rock

[humaner]

"Drug delivery systems" is that good for humans?or good for human profits?

[nzfilmsdotcom]

@UjjijjU haha the aliens probably have like infa-blue telescopes - in fact they're watching us no o__O haha :P

[Krujohfra]

This episode was really good! But I think it would've been even better if it was in HD.

[kurrizzle]

awesome.

[quosmo1]

wow, best new scientist episode yet!

[aylera]

@UjjijjU

We've had infrared telescopes for years now. lol

[BloodnutXcom]

Good episode!

Looks like Mr.Campbell took to heart the fact that some commenters don't like his humor with their monthly science dish and decided to refrain from them and make it a little more boring. A shame..

[tom5343]

his face is really annoying cool video though

[reganhinchcliffe]

the universe looks likes like a network of neural brain cells :)

[pubtor]

1:21 cool

3:12 almost 2 pillars each time

[DuarteOnTheLine]

i want a screensaver from the 10!

[Arre90]

Awesome matrix turkeys!

[betadryl]

nice one, glad you ditched the corny humor spots :)

[jezzmoto]

#8 Shape shifting buildings...that's cool

[lolocaustism]

Number 3 isn't a discovery. They just proved the most popular theory.

[defect530]

just when building are going green we start making tiles that eat electricity.

#8 shapeshifting tiles - fail

[Snowflake70]

Good compilation, great delivery. If this isn't new I'd not seen it before. If it is, well done !

[imalwayswatchingu00]

I wore a carbon water-proof top from CSIRO.

I filled up the pocket with water, it just sat in there...

[zate1982]

Bouncing water COOL!!!

What if you make a suit with that kind of surface and step into the ocean?

[wbretra]

@zate1982 Then you'll probably sink/float as you usually do, except you wouldn't get wet.

[puretroubleman]

@zate1982 I'd imagine there would be very little water resistance I'm not sure if that would make it easier or harder to swim.

[zate1982]

@puretroubleman Hey, i'm thinking of something even cooler. Imagine a suit made of this water repellent material , but somehow attached to this plastic that changes shape. I'm pretty sure that would have some kind of alication in diving or hovercrafts :D

[kid29a]

@zate1982 the ocean would bounce away from you :0 j/k ;)

very nice set of discoveries/videos!

[zate1982]

@kid29a Make a suit of that material - drop to the ocean - walk all the bottom of abyss and find the lost treasures!!!!

problem James Cameron? :D

[blazednlovinit]

4:08 i'm glad it is annotated here or i would have totally lost track of the video thinking about what had just happened

[vochitoken]

centepide video game at 3:12

[SiliconeSlave]

WOW!! I was just blown away by all that wonderful visual information. Great video! Thanks, but all that would have been nice in HD...

[sachiperez]

Good episode. I like this guy!

[yellowmetalcyborg]

Great video, I enjoy these videos more than the 30 second snippets of info.

[chris7toronto]

This guy is an absolute buzzkill!

[pwningtoenail]

bush turkeys know how to parkour

[Rosalila]

This was a really good episode

[liquidus2172]

First thing came to my mind when I saw this guy's T-shirt was "Apocalypse Now".

[nothingnesswithouten]

Man, making turkeys crawl up walls for 120 days without a break! How cruel! (kidding btw)

[FourAngelsX]

100x better then hubble ......WOW

[maulcs]

@FourAngelsX Seriously. But 2015? NASA has gone to complete shit.

[amicusnemini]

[Mastertim2006]

[jjasperchan]

[Nanovirus5995]

but if that building were to be shocked by lightning... it would implode and kill all the residence...

[RealKeenan]

science fiction idea:

our galaxy unexpectedly combines with another galaxy. result: close range inter-planetary war between two semi-advanced races

[SonarWavePulse]

@RealKeenan

That would take billions of years, so unless your races have really long lives and slow perception of time, it's fucked

[RealKeenan]

@SonarWavePulse not necessarily. perhaps there was some kind of interference messing with our satellites, gravity deal or whatever sci-fi BS you pull out of who knows where

[Illkiron]

I like top 3

[luksenborg]

@hyperseauton oh sorry i typed the name wrong instead of "Web" its "Webb"

xD

clumsy me

[luksenborg]

@hyperseauton i dont remember but there is a telescope called "James Web Space Telescope" or something and that could be the name your looking for... maybe

[Hopienme]

I like second to last video!

[HammerDraco977]

That water was soo cute XD

[puretroubleman]

where can i watch the full video/documentation on these videos?

I'd like to watch the water one in full :(

[Adhemar05]

@puretroubleman I believe this is the video you're looking for: watch?v=3-MFrM-ubvA

[krishnadefier]

[bogdandanci1988]

thanks for posting



[JustAnAdjunct]

Cool, wall running turkey! Make it do a barrel roll next!

[clearliquid]

agree with bowwowvveewa

[WASDsweden]

Imaging if thunder struck a building made of those electric plastic...

[Hatterific]

What's the plastic called? Is it for sale? It'd be perfect for my sexbot.

[monkofdark123]

304th?

[1johnnyb1]

THE FUTURE OF PORN IS LOOKING GREAT WITH ALL THESE NEW TECHNILOGICAL ADVANCES.

[1johnnyb1]

FIRST!

[bowwowvveevva]

Why can't this guy narrate the other vids instead of that boring woman. She literally makes new tech sound old.

[mrteemumilto]

@bowwowvveevva Shut up! What do you except of science and of these people? You're out of line! You also don't understand anything about the subject.

[matsrudi]

@mrteemumilto Whats your problem. Bowwowowowowsumthing got a point. That lady is awful :)

[mrteemumilto]

@matsrudi I know there are people as awful as bowwowvveevva and together you are called real men. The woman is trying, she is capable of conveing the science and I find your hostility more harmful than her dysfuctions. You are fucking idiots.

[matsrudi]

@mrteemumilto Offcorse she is trying. Everyone tries, but she fails. It sounds like she bores HERSELF to death. It doesnt realy mather THAT much, as long as they use the best people they got. Well, the guy in this vid is atleast a better option. So my opinion is that they should make him narrate the videos instead. No reason to be offencive. Im not being hostile at all, im just expressing my opinion in a calm way.

[bowwowvveevva]

@mrteemumilto

LOL why are you getting so defensive about that female narrator? Are you related to her or something? Sure I am not actually on topic but hey someone had to say it. No, I'm not that retarded, I fully understand what this video is about. Your accusations are the ones that are out of line. ''What do you except of science and of these people?'' I'm sorry but I don't understand. Insult me all you want but face it, either she improves her narrating or the complains wont stop coming.

[mrteemumilto]

@bowwowvveevva I'm sorry I called you a fucking idiot, but you can't complain in the manner you do. She has the right to narrate their videos despite her vocal dysfunction. You are demanding another person into her place and may be interpreted as discriminating.

[bowwowvveevva]

@mrteemumilto

I said she was boring and made new tech sound old. It's not like I threw vulgar insults at her. ''She has the right to narrate their videos despite her vocal dysfunction''. So do singers but I can guarantee you no one would appreciate singers with vocal dysfunctions am I right? Demanding? No, I asked why can't he replace her but if I have to put up with her so be it. To tell you the sad truth, you over sensitive dude. You're practically equating ''boring'' to ''bitch''.

[mrteemumilto]

@bowwowvveevva Why don't you now apologize to me how you called me oversensitive and sad. For equality.

I don't believe that she feels because of you, that she should improve rather than somehow disappear as a person. As you did me feel right now.

[bowwowvveevva]

@mrteemumilto

Apologize? Because I told the truth? Look, say whatever you want but I seriously am growing tired of this pointless argument. I'm done with you, good day sir.

[mrteemumilto]

@bowwowvveevva Then it has come the time to say that we know you are trying to discriminate Andreas Creustemont of NewScientists and that you have lost the power in this chat room.

[bowwowvveevva]

@mrteemumilto

''WE'' ? When other ppl agree with me that she shud improve or leave? I have no personal hate towards that woman Im just saying shes not fit for the job.What power?Ur feeble mindedness ceases to amaze me. So now u are the king of this section? What power have you gained? What power have I lost? I still can voice my opinion and seeing that majority of people agree with me you are on the down side. Ur false sense of being in ''right'' only shows that u really arent worth my time.

[mrteemumilto]

@bowwowvveevva My false sense of being "right"? lol

[Dookiii]

i feel like this is made in the 90's

[kilvertm]
