sphere of water

[photonicmassemitter]

I watch the video,and my heart is filled with hope and pride that we as a human species have accomplished something, we're in space, doing science.

Then I read the comments, and I lose all hope in humanity.

[gay4dayz]

does anyone read the blue screen? If they did I'm sure these fights wouldnt be happening lmao

[aimfail]

ehhhhh?! how do they make that bubble .. is it in space or WHAT ?!

[p0wer5000]

how is this done?

[vlainlei]

what the hell hapens is it real?¿?¿ how do you do that¿??¿

[The000URBANSHADOW]

@vlainlei You have to be in space ^^

[LeilaMeat]

do you have aspergers

[MacMyTutorials]

i never knew 'bubble war' was a scientific term ;)

[peapod45608]

oh its on the ISS. that makes sense now

[longrange341]

how the hell do you make water into a sphere i say is a fake.

[LasOrveloz]

@longrange341 If you'd actually read the god damn interrim messages (you know, those texts on the blue background?) you'd might even notice the fact that its filmed on the ISS (International SPACE station) AKA. It's filmed in orbit, you know, in very minimal gravity.

[paintballgundown8]

SPAAAAACE!

[NingyoAijin]

I want to karate chop it...

[axlrocksyuju]

how do you make that shit?

[TronLegacy25]

WTC!!!!!!!????

[Nwap00]

.......what?

[WoWspecilist]

O.o that looks so fake.. how the fck do you get water, to form a ball, and float?????

[toenailcheeseman]

@WoWspecilist dumbass....

[WoWspecilist]

@toenailcheeseman -.- just because i dont know something means that you have the right to call me a dumbass? so that means i get to call you a dumbass since you dont know what a pussy feels like

[1matt63]

@WoWspecilist Oh snap! xD

[EliteKiller07]

@WoWspecilist

It's water in zero-gravity. Fluids don't "flow" in zero gravity, they clump together due to surface tension. This experiment must have been done on the International Space Station.

[warface1992]

@EliteKiller07 how can he put the tablet in?

[brandoncormier4]

@WoWspecilist fucking epic

[ManofWario]

@WoWspecilist

your name doesn't really tell much,

[WoWspecilist]

@ManofWario wish i could change it :/ but i was stoned and came up with it :3 and i was also stoned when i made that dumbass comment lolz so.. my bad :P

[BlackLightDigital]

@WoWspecilist WEED!

[discipleofhoudini]

@WoWspecilist sure we can. you dont have to have a reason to call some one a dumb ass. see here, dumbass

[WoWspecilist]

@discipleofhoudini lol thats old, i was high as shit when i posted it :3 dident know what vids i was watching i just clicked on random ones

[gabesabitch]

@WoWspecilist says the kid named wowspecialist.

[WoWspecilist]

@gabesabitch lol my name isent made after World of warcraft, its just a random name i love FPS games like combat arms/crossfire or wolfteam

[llaymedownn]

@WoWspecilist hahahaah

[bnewton81]

Am i the only one that is seeing the water bubble floating in thin air?

[Tomasm21]

:DDDDDD I rofled. :DDDD i like it.

[fancytyme]

this owns

[DrCinnamonBun]

bubbles eating other bubbles make me jizz my pants 

[MapleLeafAce]

They did it in the International Space Station. A plane would not be able to maintain the zero-G effect long enough for these experiments to take place.

[ddrmaxman]

@Lamboragon "in like 2:45 seconds". Don't you mean two minutes and 45 seconds?

[hopugop]

this is mother fucking awesome

[bob4analog]

How did they make that sphere of water in the first place??? I wanna do that!

[toxickatie]

@bob4analog

They're in space. The dude talking is an astronaut

[an00bsum]

2:33 its looking right into my soul O.o

[GeoSlash99]

How did they do that? Zero Gravity chamber?

[la12muerta]

@GeoSlash99 lol there's no such thing xD

[Headofthetrolls]

@GeoSlash99

It was on the ISS look at the slide before the vid

[ritnerritner1]

@GeoSlash99 they did it in a zero g plane (nothing to do with the plane just the path it travels) no such thing as a "zero gravity chamber"

[takashy87]

how do you get water to behave like that?

[ritnerritner1]

@takashy87 they did it in a zero g plane (nothing to do with the plane just the path it travels) no such thing as a "zero gravity chamber"

[Dis777Ease]

BUBBLE WAR!!!!!!!!

[Sparklesz33]

@CptCool2 LMAO !!

[HulluTraceur]

@CptCool2 Sphere of water.

[ElectroAde]

@CptCool2 A video.

[3DanielW]

2:34 Smiley face!

[Dj2xP]

how do you get a sphere of water like that? :s

[SuperCatfire]

@AvengedSevenfoldAlex Who is Microsoft sam and how do you turn him on?PLZ!!!!!!!!!!(Make him talk by typing in things.)

[WeegeePerson]

how the hell do you get a free sphere of water?

[Underthought]

@WeegeePerson its done in a vacuum resting on a wire

[WeegeePerson]

@Underthought Oh, ok.

[zeplined]

@Underthought its actuality in zero gravity, a vacuum is a void.

[ziptostheelite]

@Underthought it should still fall down :O

[ritnerritner1]

@WeegeePerson they did it in a zero g plane (nothing to do with the plane just the path it travels) no such thing as a "zero gravity chamber"

[CraptasticLMAO]

its not slow motion, its just reduced frame rate...

[AndersBovbjerg]

@CraptasticLMAO actually the framerate is the same but the frames are just copied to make it a longer shot ;)

[DoubleDoubtable]

"Once they reach a certain size, they seem to eat other bubbles at a faster rate, thus growing larger. And in this form of a 'bubble war' you end up with a bi-polar situation with two large bubbles that rapidly eat all the other bubbles, and eventually you get a situation where one bubble dominates, and... all the other bubbles are- uh- pressed into an annular space." :)

[KEM0SAVY]

how did you do that?

[Bamboozled420]

Thumbs up if you didn't understand shit, and are wondering how the fucking there is a sphere of water chilling on a table....

[ryan50ryan]

awesome

[mcryhoo]

cheaters!

[Superstats1]

how do you make a sphere of water?

[azynkron]

@Superstats1 You fill a football with water and then you remove the surface. Be careful though when you do it.

[Superstats1]

@azynkron but wouldnt it just fall apart?

[PAINmedia]

@Superstats1 no fucking shit sherlock :D

[octavianmihailescu]

@Superstats1 you look up and spit

[worsethanamistake]

How do you make a sphere of water in the first place?

[samblye1]

@worsethanamistake Zero gravity.

[worsethanamistake]

@samblye1 Man I'm stupid.  It says right at the beginning that it's a trip to the space station.

[darkgaara112]

that is hell cool

[nameno1elsehas]

wait wtf? I don't comprehend this -_- are they in space?

[Kubiak04]

hax

[iLoveOrangutans]

I can do that with my mind

[EuSouoEX]

2:32 ETe's XD

[alienspy77]

this is so dope

[mikeyrt16]

WIIIITCH!!!!!

[tomalotube]

i actually did this on a zero gravity plane. I got distracted and put my hand trough it, spreading drops of water everywhere

[zyriuz2]

pause at 2:33 and u see an alien in the water ^^

[zheffner666]

you have to be in space or zero gravity people!

[durbineil]

:mr1880 all you need is a liter of water and an international space station

[TheFlyingFruit]

don't forget a space shuttle and some tons of hydrogen fuel.

[lx45803]

Well hell, I got a few of those lying around, I might have to try this out myself.

[mr1880]

dude how u make one

[mawhaw234]

i want one!

[thedcase]

How do you get a sphere of water like that?

[directrix1]

Uhhh, you go to space.

[AvengedSevenfoldAlex]

he sounds like Microsoft Sam

[gzklgg]

holyyyyyyy crappppppppppppppppppppppppppp­pp

[MaGiCDaN90]

I totally agree...

btw, WOW a sphere of water!

WIZARDRY!!!!

[SuperCatfire]

@AvengedSevenfoldAlex I know!

[TheJimster1188]

what are you using as a sphere cover over the water and do please reply

[barolfe]

he's not using anything, this is on the space station, nearly zero gravity

[salspals123]

cohesion- water tends to stick to itself

[rsrulesthenation]

cool

[kayway9]

i would really like one :)

[damnedria]

i understand that it is in space but how is the water kept in place?

[IceCreamSteve1]

cohesion

[lazymandoplayer]

You can see a loop of wire in the video which is holding the water in place - the water will tend to "stick" to objects such as the wire so it doesn't just drift off (much like the plastic or metal rings used in blowing soap bubbles)

[enVme731]

cohesion, water can stick to itself, take an eye dropper and drop drops of water onto a clean penny, u should get up to like 35 drops

[flayshon]

Nice ^^

[sammjw2k8]

how is the water floating?

sounds dumb but explain please

[Jk981206]

He was on the ISS (Internation Space Station)

[ZorbatronII]

Actually no, I just missed the begining bit, but thanks for flipping out and trying to come up with childish reasons as to why I missed it.

[ZorbatronII]

Makes no sense, why isn't there an explaination of what the testing environment was? Last time I checked you can't have a 'sphere of water'. Just floating about.

[kerog6]

at the beginning it said it was in the expidition to the space station. you must be pretty ignorant or just really impatient to miss that.

[2dawolf]

Ever heard of space stations?

[finnbich]

ur gay

[rinsmaster]

BUBBLE WAR!!

[trekkiegirl93]

Gah, that's so cool

And, I know I may be the only one that thinks this, but his voice was really nice!

XD

It reminds me of my grandpa.

[PigsCanFly99]

Comically excessive description. Explain what the wire is for .. poor demo all in all.  Just a woo waa type low info density demo. At least describe how you intend to dispense with this orbital mess.

Antipodal not Antipoidal btw. Bipolar BS. surface energy considerations based on radius of curvature of given bubbles or droplets .. analogous to grain refinement in solid-state transformations. Space station demo FAIL.

[KissMyFeetButtMunch]

I think the wire is for stopping the sphere from floating away... or it will be like 'Poof' 'wee' Splat!

[silenceisdead]

Waves in a large free sphere of water:

DON PATTIT, NASA EXPEDITION 6 To the Internation Space Station.

FYI. its right in the beginning of the video

[daisyfoofpoof]

how doid they get the water into that shape?

[AsianCaptainObvious]

They're in zero gravity

outer space, in other words

[Niobesnuppa]

Cool...

[yusopkeretasexkuat]

the water is alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dan7aylor]

this guys voice is.... somewhat.... annoying.

[ztsb45]

the antacid tablet thing looked kinda cool 0.0

[112048112048]

sending a wave *breath*

going through the ball *breath*

where we inject *breath*

a mass transferr of interface *breath*

mass transfer of water droplets *breath*

lolz *breath*

Omg *breath*

[threadysparrow]

2:03 thats weird how the water kind of grabs the tablet

[superslashme]

Its just cohesion and adhesion of the water molecules which makes the molecules grab hold of the surface of the tablet. Its like capillary action.

[007007008plp]

WOW.................

I've seen it all now :D

[dexxtteer]

please, explain how to make water do this?

[Werock4roll]

theyre in space bud

[dexxtteer]

there are numerous vid of this effect, your telling me they are all done in space?

[Tendrax]

No but it says in the video that they're on the space station.

[dexxtteer]

I see, interesting...

[sharpya380]

maybe in a plane doing 0-g's, the same way they prepare astronauts for zero gravity?

[easymac79]

how does it float like that?

[olishea]

ALIEN FACE AT 2:34 OH MY GOD

[easymac79]

i see no face...

[tsuikjoshiomatsu]

i can see it!

[theonlyonebuttwo]

now we see it in slo-motion,

starts off with a crater,

sending a droplet off,

then a series of surface waves,

my voice is extremely annoying,

[zskar]

laughing my fucking ass of

[pimas11]

lol flying water

[Freaky94sweden]

It can be done in france so no need to go to space :)

2 ways to do it eaither STRONG magnets or no gravity or SUPER DUPER SPEED

[mutantpotato666]

THAT IS SO FREAKING AWESOME... i would go into space just to see it in person

[alecTHElion]

good news, it can be done using UBER strong magnets, not nedinium, special ones

[ThyMole]

The power of diamagnetism<3

[DeltaWound]

Zero-G is so freakin' awesome...

[misfisk]

@ TheSKeb:

If your god character created us, the universe and everything, then surely we do only what we're meant to do.. Otherwise, we would be a very lousy design :D And no god has ever been known to make a mistake, right?

[TtheCrazy]

god didn't make a mistake, man did

[misfisk]

you did not understand a single word i just wrote, did you? :D

[exjio]

I just didn't understand how can you make those water spheres.

[Asdam12]

Surface tension. It is out in space, as well.

[exjio]

Thanks...

I "figured" it few minutes after my comment :)

[Asdam12]

hehe :)

[TheSKeB]

Wasn't it completely obvious that when air is shot over the sphere of water it would create ripples? Why do people think they need to test something that is sure to happen? God made it this way, so it is this way. Our science has no say in the matter; all science is, is an attempt by man to understand and control what he has no say over.

[mr1scotty]

Why doesn't god post his own comments!

[shreeyatyagi]

Truly funny

[FryFubar]

Holy shit. u talked so much about water and bubbles, i only understood a tiny bit lol. God damn floating/bubble/water genius! Nice vid. props to the author.

[domdombtches]

BUBBLE WARS!! >:D

[4orty5ive]

this is awesome.. was this done on space station or something?

[walikai]

that is so awesome

[CameOnYoMom]

I wanna know how u get that started it look sweet!

[dibbuck]

Bessel function its ass!

[1234567890tgb]

OK, so I need me one of those water sphere holders right now.

[MaXG65]

Obviously this was done in 0g!

Sorry... Was not following this... Cool..

[sagevorgen]

2:33 - 2:35 alien face!

[AndyGoRAWR]

Cool, but I don't see how research of how air blowing into water or an antacid tablet in water at 0 gravity can help anyone except for a cool little show.

[mephisto4444]

both of you idiots are wrong gravity DOES exist in space gravity exist everywhere it is what keeps time and space together which is why anti gravity is as impossible as time travel

[someman7]

Could you explain that to me on my PM?

[Ululuro]

yeah, there is gravity. if you shoot a rocket 3000 miles up into space it will fall down again. it has to be fast enough.

[rodney100100]

lol so true

[xin3000]

reminds me of blitzball

[palthir]

hahah yeah it does

[xXpezcoolXx]

omg that's awesome wich anti-gravity existe on Earth

[tcheightyeight]

this is on either the Space Shuttle or on the International Space Station

anti gravity does not exist in large quantities

it takes trillions of gigawatts of power to generate enough anti gravity to reduce your weight by just 50%

[gnooze]

That is so very cool!

[8DegreesOfFreedom]

go big bubble!

[darklight3182]

witches, witches i sey!

[basslinegenerator]

hahaha :) how do you get water in a sphere :) thats the best ... we america best educational system of world supadupa :) hahaha
