WATCH THIS IN HD - I thought this intro by Sarah and Gordon was too pretty not to post on its own. How do cats flip without violating the conservation of angular momentum?
"Flipping cat math" allows us to see the farthest objects in the universe. Really! I'll show you how.
CATS, HIGH SPEED VIDEO, MICROGRAVITY, PHYSICS, SPACE.... Please go ahead and figure out what internet outlet you're going to share this with.

Artist Info:
Sarah Xu, a student at the Vancouver Film School made the awesome introduction Drawing. http://captainpillow.blogspot.ca/ The math is accurate!

Gordon McGladdery wrote & Recorded the song "Explain"

    You should put your cat drawing on threadless, it would make a nice t-shirt. :)

    Less than that and the cat won't have time to flip? Btw, how about talking about that study about how many floors is the safest height for a cat to drop?
