The cloaking/camouflage part: You left out Predator. You also left out the fact that magicians/illusionists were hired in WWII and successfully hid entire camps and set up dummy tanks, trucks, etc.

@theduder2617

4 жыл бұрын

That may be because the Predator utilized cloaking, not invisibility. If you watch the movies again, pay attention as they go "invisible". You will see the background being imposed onto the surface of their suit. Only their thrown weapons go invisible AFTER they leave the hands of a predator. But while in their possession, even the weapons are cloaked.

@philjones6551

Dummy tanks, trucks, convoys, etc., were physical constructs (along the lines of theatre production set designs) with speakers playing what amounts to a mix tape of the sounds one might expect from the convoy. They were two-dimensional cut-outs, painted to look like an enticing target for the enemy, with sounds being played from speakers to make the scene more convincing. That wasn't a magician or illusionist, but rather an engineering company.

For the first question, Star Trek also had deep space "stations" that would connect to each other though for communications purposes, probably would help with the subspace comms.

It's not about not be unseen, but to blend. It's about "becoming" , in the sense that the question usually comes from the POV of the one who can't see, instead of the one that can't be seen/watched.

Hey Dr Tyson, huge fun of the show!! Please bring some computer scientists or experts from any Computer science field.

omg salted when they said "you know, you can say no to some of these movies." LOL

It's extremely entertaining to watch these 3 gentlemen geek out together lol

I sooo want Dr. Charles to be my professor even tho I took biology for my undergrad.❤

In Thor Heyerdahl's masterwork, "Kon-Tiki"--which consisted of a handmade raft, a diary-based book, and later the Academy Award-winning documentary about Heyerdahl's and his friends' theory and subsequent expedition--the entire project depended upon, essentially, a hand-hewn balsa wood frame, a bamboo and straw "wheelhouse," and straw filler to waterproof the entire thing. And it was proven to be fairly well waterproof during a massive, insanely dangerous storm that they survived! A woven together floating raft made it all the way across the PACIFIC OCEAN! Wow. A boat that would float all the way across the PACIFIC OCEAN with little more than hope and hard work is just crazy enough to earn my respect!

lol at the subtitles when chuck talks at the same time as neil [Drowning Neils Voice] 😆

Egyptian reed boats. Reed is basically a large form of Straw. It floated on the Nile just fine.

Awesome idea for an episode, thanks!

infarct the best video i saw on the internet today about compression

The invisible car in the Bond universe was in Die Another Day with Pierce Brosnan in 2002, not Daniel Craig. It was the Aston Martin v12 Vanquish which Q referred to as the Vanish. Also, Dragon Ball Z repeatedly used a gravity enhancing machine (without any spinning rooms) for use in strength training.

I was hoping Sharknado would get a shout out!!! Those movies are so ridiculous, and i absolutely watch them whenever they come on. :-)

And for the stealth “technology” in regards to other applications, I have an idea. In the idea of absorbing different electromagnetic signals or even, to some extent, deflecting, it could be applied to solar power. I think this is something also thought about when thinking about applications for vanta black (if it could be mass produced)

"No one is going to make a movie out of [regenerating limbs]"... Deadpool?

You should really watch The Expanse. It embraces scientific accuracy. Thrust and spin gravity, no FTL, communications delays, water shortages in space stations, etc. It may not be perfect (I think they made a mistake with Jovian lunar orbits), but it completely ruins other science fiction for me, particularly when it comes to gravity and FTL communication. This is a spoiler free world building side story that illustrates what I mean. kzread.info/dash/bejne/l4p4t8ZmnbPRg8o.html

A slight correction: the hypothetical "subspace" communication of Star Trek was not portrayed as being instantaneous, as Dr. Liu characterized it, but would take some time such as several weeks. (Depending on the era and dramatic needs.) Wonderful discussion!

The movie that simultaneously made me want to scream and cry was the mid-to-late 1970's "The Black Hole", by Disney of all studios; wherein while the lead characters were falling into the titular Black Hole - IN THE VACUUM OF DEEP SPACE - , they held a conversation with each other. But granted, that was ostensibly a Sci-fi flick; not a Superhero one, which was the question. With regard to the '60s "Batman" movie, the question I kept asking myself re the Bat-Shark repellent was: was it a can of Batman-created Shark-repellent, OR a can of repellent specifically designed for "Bat-Sharks"?

Bummer. Thought this might have been a new episode . Oh well. It's material well worth repeating. lol

In Star Trek they do in fact use micro wormholes to send long range messages. And even then there's a delay. Mass Effect 3 introduces the contrivance of quantum entanglement to send messages across the galaxy - essentially quantum strings linking the two points.

Learning how not to interrupt people should be on top of your list

Neil's chuckle gets me everytime.

Love it!

What I would love to see you talk about is the futuristic science from the PULP Fiction which is in many ways sci-fi written BEFORE the Apollo era. Examples of what I'm talking about would stories like the LensMan series, the universe created by H Beam Piper, Jules Verne, etc

I don't know why I have watched this... ... five times during the last 2 days since it was published. You guys are awesome.

The cloak in Harry Potter was another example of unnoticeability. It was woven of Demiguise fur, a material of perfect camouflage. (You might enjoy reading The Science of Harry Potter.)

Both Charles Liu's and Neil's superpower wishes have been used in movies. Immortality in the Highlander movies & TV series, regrowing lost limbs (& everything else) in Deadpool movies.

Awesome good show today.

One problem with instantaneous communication is that if the two parties are travelling at high speed with respect to each other, then each should experience the other as being slowed down. If a spaceship is going at high speed, then on Earth we would see it as having time dilation and everything on the ship slowed down, but on the ship they would see the Earth as experiencing time dilation, and everything on Earth slowed down.

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension 😂😱 Peter Weller, John Lithgow, Ellen Barkin, Christopher Lloyd, Jeff Goldblum... what an amazing cast!

I love that Chuck is like "Princess Bubblegum said that too.", haha.

In the movie “Ghost Dad”, he DID fall through the floor down to the foundation. He struggled for a while, if I remember correctly, to stand on the actual room floor. Once he figured it out, he was fine. I think... it’s been about 30 years since I’ve seen that movie, or when ever it first came on video

Hey now, Neil, I'm 39 and I grew up on Adam West and Burt Ward. And I own the DVD of their movie.

Charles mentioned Dune and the Fountain in one go? I am a fan now.

*_Amazing Charles_*

I suddenly imagined a sci-fi world in which no FTl communication is possible, but FTL travel exists, so all the communication is done with a use of tiny fast postman drones that are constantly jumping between systems.

Neil: „where I can open my mouth 5x wider than my head, so I can finally... Chuck: „(silently) suck it” Hahahah pure gold Chuck

Dope episode

Charles said Star Trek's subspace radio is simultaneous. But I believe there was a delay of some time, like weeks or so; this is a bit more realistic, and adds to the drama of Capt Kirk having to make decisions without backup from starfleet.

46:00 Reminds me of the demand from proponents of "flat Earth" to put a camera in space and transmit live video of the Earth "spinning". Of course there would be issues providing the bandwidth for continuous video, and the reality that if we did put a camera at the L1 point to do this the video would appear to be stationary moving only 15 degrees per hour. Note: we have such a camera at the L1 point already (DSCOVR) Epic, but it does not do live video.

I love how he brought in adventure time so chill

I keep looking up with you!
