  • what if theres an anomaly of space and time somewhere and atoms are slowed down or sped up? or even brought to a halt?

  • @JosephGubbels Colors are used for tracking purposes... For your convenience

  • what does he mean when he talks about hydrogen atoms being red, yellow and orange? (1:40)

    Individual atoms are not usually thought of as having colour, and even if we are talking about the colour of the frequency of light they reflect or (more likely considering the context) the frequency of light they emit when excited by microwaves, then why would identical atoms be different colours (red vs. yellow)?

  • exuse me ..... -somebody knows what time it is, please ???? :-O

  • owsome

  • no, it is planned to be in the air in 2013.
