I Love Science
I Hate Ignorance
There is a great cloud chamber set up at the Griffith Observatory in LA. Perfect spot for a date if you ever need to impress someone, and the cloud chamber is amazing.
So cool to see actual measurement device
This is one of the single most important discovery in science.
Why don’t the could trails originate at the point of radiation?
Guys, if you have time make sure to watch the full lecture on Ri site. It is very nicely done.
Radiation?
Magic
I build one with Peltier tec modules. It's pretty cool. XD
