  • I was hoping they were putting the pokemon character in a jet engine

  • To all you "DOES THIS SAVE LIVES?!?!" retards. Science has NEVER been just dedicated to saving lives. So shut the fuck up already.

  • I'd rather just have flying saucers.

    Where is newnewscientist?

  • @ericsbuds Nope. But they have Freon fire extinguishers :)

  • @daggerGforcefahrer No you're only half correct. There was a story of a plane that stopped but a few moments later it started up again. THAT's the reason why they experimented this. Did you even read about the plane?

  • @YuneShik no it's not the same because it was already known that flying through clouds of volcanic ash may cause a plane to crash

  • Better porn?

  • @Fr0stBlade Apart from your correct statement, this can actually save lives, by knowing how much risk there is when an airplane flies through ashes.

  • actually they did this experiment on "Bang goes the theory" already

  • @Razzfazz87 Thats my point. People seem to think if it wont save lives or cure cancer its not worth doing. And they wont hesitate to sit on their lazy ass and criticize others that are actually contributing.

  • @marsCubed

    No, No hard feelings whatsoever M8.

    By the way, I'm pretty well acquainted with quantum theory, and wave particle duality.

    As I stated earlier on, I wasn't looking to explain in-depth, or model the system. 500 chars is a little limiting for such.

    I still can't ascertain what you thought was wrong with anything that I stated.

    You still have not answered about the phonon, being a quasi particle?

    You seemed to be suggesting it was a real physical particle. Am I wrong in my understanding?
