FLAT-EARTHER’S SECOND ROCKET LAUNCH ATTEMPT SPUTTERS OUT
Now, he claims to have once launched himself 1,374 feet into the air, which is no small feat. But, their are radio towers and buildings that tall, so I don’t see what he’s going to prove by going up that high.
Spontaneous Human Combustion, is an interesting topic. And while there are some convincing skeptics, there are quite a few of these cases that cannot be explained, no matter how convoluted the explanation.

Well this should be amusing…
‘I Don’t Believe In Science,’ Says Flat-Earther Set To Launch Himself In Own Rocket
What an idiot. Perhaps he doesn’t believe in gravity either. I’m betting he backs out.
UPDATE: Looks like he’s getting ready to back out…
A flat-Earther’s plan to launch himself in a homemade rocket just hit a speed bump
I must admit, I am a bit confused by this whole “flat-earth” thing. How can you disbelieve something that is so easy to prove? Science isn’t a belief system. It’s all evidence based. Belief never enters into it. It doesn’t need to because it’s about proof.
This conversation touches on many of the things I believe personally. What do you think?
You don’t want to ever be this dumb. BTW, this is why I don’t watch QVC.
Odds are Benedict Cumberbatch can’t do a good American accent though.
Fascinating article…
Man Who Saved the World From Nuclear Armageddon in 1983 Dies at 77
Good advice.
Yikes, These hair-raising moments are the first video footage from renowned rock climber Alex Honnold’s ascent of the 3,000-foot wall of El Capitan—without a rope. On June 3rd, Honnold became the first person ever to free solo climb this famous rock face at Yosemite National Park, California.
I guess. This has been making the rounds, and it’s both scientifically, and historically accurate, and pretty funny as well.
However, it does contain strong, inappropriate language! Watch at you own risk!
My favorite science fiction TV show is now free to view on the internet. www.go90.com is a website that streams older TV shows and they have the entire run of Babylon 5 online now. This does not seem to include the half dozen TV movies, but that’s okay. The show holds up remarkably well for a 20 year-old show and is worth watching for the amazing performances by Peter Jurasik as Londo and Andreas Katsulas as G’Kar, not to mention the great writting of J. Michael Straczynski.
Wow. If you liked growing crystals for EPS, this guy has a project you might want to try.

This is pretty neat.
Set off in Zurrieq, Malta late last year. The monster goes off toward the end of the video. Nice show.
I have mentioned this lady every year I have been teaching, as I speak about gravity and terminal velocity. In 1972 a young Serbian stewardess on a Yougoslav airline fell 33,000 feet when the plane was blown up by a bomb. She had no parachute, but survived. She held the record for the highest freefall survival in history.

So long Princess Leia, you had quite a life.
And another American hero passes. Just a really, really good man.

I have never trusted news feeds from social media, and recent evidence has come to light that fake news stories are spread through social media. This article is pretty scary.

I think the rash of NASA and space related films the last few years may come from a longing in this country for a time when, as a nation, we had higher priorities. The American Space program was, in my opinion, one of our country’s finest moments, and I’m thrilled we are finally getting around to telling stories like this.”Hidden Figures” tells the story of three African American mathematicians and scientists who worked in the space program. And particularly the story of Katherine Johnson the physicist who calculated flight trajectories for the Mercury program. I love stories of people who helped build something greater than themselves.
Wow! What an effect.
