Wear a Helmet!

October 22nd, 2011 | Space


Not that the helmet will help much, but it may make you feel better about  the falling German satellite, ROSAT, that is supposed to strike Earth sometime tomorrow.  The German Space Agency is putting the chances at one in 2,000 that someone will be struck by a piece of ROSAT, but only 1 in 14 trillion that that person will be you!

Optical Illusion Video

October 21st, 2011 | Brain

 

Take the relaxing trip through the most famous optical illusions out there.

I have always been a fan of the Escher Waterfall shown above.  Some guy actually created a 3D working model of it a few years back, and it turned out to be pretty amazing.  Can you guess how he did it?
