  @1966Shovelhead007 Hi, we're intending this video series for all age and education levels.We believe that a lot of the concepts are not generally knowledge so we're attempting to set up a frame work to guide understanding. Future videos in the series will go more in depth and hopefully be more in...

  @USTEMPLAR If you mean a cooling effect due to vapor or evaporation like with a fan, then no. This experiment takes place in Ultra High Vacuum. On a good day the vacuum in our instrument can be 10 to a 100 times less dense then outer space.

  There would actually be a slight heating effect as the...

  @oker59 Yes we have been working on this project for quite a while. We began work on symmetrical thioethers before progressing onto the asymmetrical thioether used in the nature nanotech paper. A lot of different problems had to be overcome before we developed a working motor. This video explains...
