Those pictures of a neon atom look almost exactly like the atomic models we were shown in 1963 in my Franklin Institute summer chemistry classes. I remember my dad, a polymer chemist, being surprised that they were no longer shown as a simple cloud of electrons surrounding a hidden nucleus--as he was taught in the late 1940s, but as hourglass-shaped clouds whose "waist" ran through the nucleus.

Hearing about the food colour labeling study made me realise how it’s pretty wild we don’t have that. I mean the food I eat definitely has green labels all over - it’s only that there is absolutely no proper regulation about the actual meaning of those labels.

Really enjoy content from yourself and Brian, credentials plus an open mind are rare things.

Thanks Sabina; the image of the atom was very enlightening ! for me…

Really enjoying the bits of science and political humor you threw in there, you're actually quite funny. I have enjoyed the way you explain how certain things actually behave and how they make things perform, your explanation of how the quantum bits can be manipulated through the use of electricity in this video is a perfect example. Thank you for making these excellent videos and for doing the work it takes to prepare the content, and especially for sharing your knowledge.

The thing about geo-engineering is that we have been doing it unknowingly on a global scale for over 150 years by burning ungodly amounts of stored carbon and releasing it into the atmosphere, heating it up. We did with a global industry that made a business model out of the process of burning carbon.(for energy) I am actually pretty convinced that history will eventually label this a crime against humanity, at least for the time it went on after the science became clear in the 1970s and it was no longer done unknowingly. If we were to build a carbon capture industry it would have to at least rival the fossil fuel industry in size and it would have to be entirely subsidized because they would have no product to sell other than undoing damage that has already been done but was never priced in by the market. If we were to attempt to reverse engineer our global climate and undo the effects of climate change without negative side effects, we have to also understand the scale of the problem we are facing, a problem we have created over the span of 2 centuries in a global concerted effort. That is not something you fix with a device, or some substance. Whatever the nature of our attempts of undoing the damage will be, it will have to be a massive global effort over centuries. So for now, instead of chasing naive easy fixes, we should focus on stopping burning even more carbon and reigning in this extremely powerful, global industry that will fight tooth and nail to retain its power.

"About the average attention span of a Twitter user." 😆Once again, Sabine nails it. I wouldn't put much stock in the summer forecast - this winter was supposed to be colder than normal here in the US, and so far it has been WARMER than usual.

When I worked at IBM, the company actively encouraged employees to file as many patents as they could possibly justify, so it is unsurprising that they led the pack for so long, given their relative size to other companies. That Samsung broke their string is significant, and makes me wonder whether they have been following IBM's patent-spam model.

9:05 THAT IS a stunning set of images! DEFINITELY needs to be on a poster!

Hi Sabine. I enjoy your physics perspective, your dry humour, and insight into the news. Care to comment on why Levi Strauss fits in ahead of the likes of IBM and GE in patent applications?

The random system is kind of close to the old system analog synthesizers used for random values. They sampled the noise frequencies around them, quite a bit of the noise was from cosmic rays.

I really enjoyed watching this one. Thanks for the video!

_"Someone needs to come with carbon-neutral fast food that’s really unhealthy, it might just save the planet."_ That was a really good one. Thanks.

Really looking forward to the video on geothermal energy! My impression so far - without having done a whole lot of research - is that it's potentially a game changer, but the challenges are immense, and thus it might not be feasible for a long time to come … kind of like fusion. Let's see what Dr. Hossenfelder's team comes up with!

Dammit Sabine, I love you so much! Keep on keeping on!

a tractor beam for people who desire to know the progress of scientific knowledge and appreciate when it comes from a witty source

17:56 James just did an Action Lab video 4 days ago about tractor-beams and waves and how they can pull something in.

VERY STRANGE STATISTIC !! When looking at graph: #2 Patent Applications Electronic Digital Data Processing (14:43) There are the usual suspects, Boeing, HP, GE, IBM - but #3 is Levis?? What's up with that ?

When I used to write code as a product designer I found momentary system latency was a very good random number generator when multiplied by the system date and time. No outside source could know what the system latency was at that specific moment, especially as it's not recorded anywhere. After that you just limit the number of attempts so you block brute force methods. Best part was that this data was readily available for the coder. Just a few lines of code and you have a fairly robust security key.

Would it be more accurate to say that cosmic rays are good sources "unpredictability" instead of "randomness"?

Oh this is just wonderful! Your news is my favourite for keeping as up-to-date as possible and I can't help laughing at your humorous side notes! Please keep doing what you're doing.

Interesting, Thank You . Thank You for being so interesting and informative

Maybe tractor beams can be used as part of ram scoop technology. Particularly larger more advanced versions that allow you to not only capture additional reaction mass, but also filter out things you can't just pick up at any old space station. In this case, the ship could detect and isolate things that are normally out of reach, and drag them into their primary scoop mechanism. An interesting aside, I have some ideas that are tangentially related to this concerning cleaning up near earth objects such as space debris. It relies on physical contact though, not EM scoops or tractor beams. Think mesh of artificial muscles, modular attachment points, and one bipropellant vac optimized RCS per minimum deployable unit. Most of the nav compute would be per unit as well, so that your nav control doesn't need to be upgraded as you scale. Theoretically, each repeating element in the mesh could also be interchangeable for repair, and some versions might be around 80-90% compatible by weight with early, low volume space production.

You use a prompter! This is the first time I felt and saw it though. The weird slow downs and inconsistencies of reading and an every now and then skipping eyeballs are present.

The clock my grandmother had was powered by tractor beams. The 4 blades were attacked by light. That kept it spinning around. No complicated lasers needed.

14:45 Levi-Strauss & Co in 3rd position ? The jeans manufacturer? 😮

9:15 Sabine, I think either someone on your team got right and left confused or the paper did. The right looks like computational reconstruction and the left is measurement results. When I was in bioinformatics 20 years ago I remember they couldn't image the molecules with x-rays without tearing them apart, so the measurement was destructive and they had to use many samples. I'm pretty sure that is basically still the current state. What do you think are the odds this could actually be used to image molecules? I think electrons are pretty high energy (short wavelength) and so this will not really help that much, but I could be wrong.

Hilarious, talked with a buddy about security and encryption using this method 20 years ago... is background radiation and or "noise" from space breakable? Is it always the same? This is great stuff.

The Laser Tractor Beam is My IDEAL.... I proposed this to a company over 15 years ago. they said it wouldn't work. I used a Y lens to Rotate the laser beam (creates a cylinder of light that rotates) and a static charge sent down the middle of the laser bean to charge the item you want to tractor, this gives it a positive or negative charge and can then be attracted or replied from the ship using a opposite or identical charge on the attractor plate. the laser tunnel keeps the charged particles together like a water pipe.

15:36 I'm guessing the system assumes shipping by truck is bad because diesel and will calculate an average rate of pollution for diesel trucks to determine the warning label. Yet, if the shipping is done entirely by battery electric conveance (which will be a thing in perhaps less than 1 year), it will still be labeled 'bad, diesel'. I'll be offering QR labels to customers that show where my ET loaded the cargo, where it was unloaded, and all the cities between. Semi trucks already produce this data, it is only a matter of digitally archiving it and putting a link (QR code) on packages. I will probably not be actively participating in a large system or even a system provided by the shipper. I would suggest that motor carries independantly do what I will be doing for recievers who want for this service.

When I heard about the technology behind the 'tractor beam', I couldn't help to think of Crooke's Radiometer.

Great work Dr. Cylindrical cells firing at top speed

The Biochemistry lecturer and Science Fiction author Isaac Asimov wrote a short story (whose title I forget) no later I think than the mid-1950s in which an IT-based civilisation records and processes digital information by a process called ''the nudged electron''. This sounds to me like a prediction of electron spin-dependent quantum computing.

""It’s like if you yell at someone and they come to hit you in the face, it’s the backlash that makes it happen."" I discovered Sabine just a few days ago, really great. :-)

If we take any simple wave 🌊 when we observe it from front view we can see whenever it is in level-1 or level-0 based on its amplitude from origin perspective. But when we see it from top level - you can't tell the difference. Does that mean normal wave is in quantum state ??

The tractor beam specifications make me think of the "Crookes radiometer" or "light-mill"

Gawd, I wish there were votes on these atmospheric scale "remedies" _before_ they could be launched. Logical discussion and multiple perspectives on a given theory could save us all the panic and potentially devastating consequences. 😖

It will be interesting to hear your thoughts on MIT spinoff Quaise Energy, and whether you think that their drilling system that uses millimeter wave energy to melt and vaporize rock will work effectively!

We don't need to use costly and rare noble metals for catylists for fuel cells. Using non-precious catalyst electrodes based on recyclable carbon nanostructures, for example, can produce clean energy and increase the ability to commercialize the fuel cells. Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and graphene/magnetic iron oxide nanocomposite (rGO/MIO) can be successfully synthesized as anode and cathode, respectively, from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste bottles using easy steps in order to simplify the method and reducing the production cost. Alternatively, something like molten salt synthesized submicron Perovskite La1-xSrxCoO3 particles can achieve an efficient electrocatalyst for water eeectrolysis. We'll always have magma, as Humphrey Bogart might say. We'll always have water...unless we succeed in vaporising the oceans. We'll always have renewables if we replant...some trees grow remarkably quickly. Why we always look for high-tech when low-tech will do, I don't know. The horse and cart was good enough for our predecessors. We don't need 15 supertankers carrying coal to Newcastle and butter from New Zealand to increase the European butter mountain [ despite which butter is remakably over-priced nowadays ]......and more pollution ( of a certain type ) than all the vehicles on the land. LOL.
