Posted: 04 Jul 2016 05:04 PM PDT I just saw on ESPN that Joe Chestnut ate a stunning 70 hotdogs in 10 minutes. ESPN listed that as 19,600 calories (980% of daily value), 1,260 grams of fat (1,938% of daily value) and 54,600 mg's of sodium (2,275% of daily value). In honor of July 4th, how does your body react to such a massive intake of calories, sodium and fat? [link] [comments] |

Posted: 05 Jul 2016 05:15 AM PDT Passenger pigeons may have been the most abundant bird in North America at one time. What Filled The "Passenger Pigeon"-Shaped Hole In The Environment Afterwards, if anything? Do we have an idea of what ecological price was paid by losing that iconic species? [link] [comments] |

Why is there such intense radiation around Jupiter? Posted: 05 Jul 2016 12:03 AM PDT From what I understand, Juno is about to get slammed with radiation which will slowly take out its instruments. What is the source and nature of this radiation? How would a human visiting Europa or Titan be able to withstand it? [link] [comments] |

How does one time a photons movement? Posted: 04 Jul 2016 08:27 PM PDT While reading Feynman's book "QED", he mentions that when drawing vectors for a photon that their angle is determined by a "stopwatch hand" which rotates depending on the frequency of the photon. What is exactly meant by this? I'm confused as to how light can be "timed," so-to-speak, if photons travel at the speed of light then wouldn't they not experience time? And how are photons timed in real life? (Feynman's explanations seem to pull arbitrary numbers out of the air) [link] [comments] |
How does ice exist on asteroids? Doesn't ice sublimate away in space? Posted: 04 Jul 2016 07:15 PM PDT I thought water ice sublimated away in space, if so then how do asteroids have ice? Is there any way to make water ice exist in space? Like a coating or impurities or to cool it below the solid-liquid phase boundry (seems slightly absurd to cool something in space however). Maybe I've been reading too much sci-fi but I was imagining the ice haulers from the Expanse series as little tugs with a glacier in tow. Thoughts? [link] [comments] |

What is the genuine cause of the shrinkage of schizophrenic brain? Posted: 04 Jul 2016 06:38 PM PDT I had googled and found many research papers and news indicating the shrinkage of schizophrenic brain. Some researches associated brain shrinkage with schizophrenia itself - abnormal synaptic pruning. Another researches associated brain shrinkage with chronic exposure to (certain?) antipsychotics. For example: Question: What is the genuine cause of the shrinkage of schizophrenic brain? Currently is there a definitive explanation? [link] [comments] |
How realistic is it to build/utilize Earths lagrangian points in near future? Posted: 04 Jul 2016 06:12 PM PDT Specifically in L4 and L5, where gravity keeps things locked in place. [link] [comments] |
How do things dry in room temperature? Posted: 04 Jul 2016 07:28 PM PDT This is probably the simplest question of the day but I've never been able to figure it out. Let's say for example that I have a terrible fever and after sleeping on my bed, leave the sheets soaking in sweat. If I sleep somewhere else, the bed is dry by morning, including (I assume) the inside of the mattress. It hasn't dripped onto my floor, the temperature was never high enough for evaporation, so how do these things dry on their own? I apologize if this question falls below the average intellectual standards of this subreddit [link] [comments] |
Why optic fiber is faster than copper cables ? Posted: 04 Jul 2016 06:45 PM PDT I read that electrons flow in an electric conductor at 99% of the speed of light (not sure about it), and light travel inside an optic fiber at 100% of the speed of light (obviously) So is that 1% responsible for the faster data transmission in the optic fiber ?

what is information (referring Black Hole Information Paradox)? Posted: 05 Jul 2016 12:32 AM PDT i understand the logic behind the conservation of matter and energy, but i just can't grasp my head around why the information about the state of a system needs to also be preserved. if i take an apple and I dismantle it until it is nothing but protons and electrons, how in the world is the information about its previous state conserved? i am trying to understand why it is so controversial that matter falls into a black hole and then it irradiates away as hawking radiation (without conserving the information about what that matter was) [link] [comments] |

Wouldn't it be possible for there to be life under the surface of planets deemed "not habitable"? Posted: 04 Jul 2016 12:28 PM PDT To expand on what I am saying, I am basically asking wouldn't it still be possible for life to exist on, say cold planets, deep below the surface where it starts to get warmer? Side note, why are we looking for certain life that need X or X to survive? Why aren't we looking literally everywhere? Sorry if I am dumb just curious :) [link] [comments] |
Posted: 04 Jul 2016 06:44 PM PDT Ran into this on a wikipedia tangent, I'm lost here but as I understand it length contraction is only an illusion, the object isn't actually getting shorter from its own perspective, it just appears to be getting shorter to a stationary observer because of the tiny difference in time it takes for the light from the front of the object to reach the observer compared to the light from the back of the object, combined with the extreme speed of the object relative to the observer. So if the ladder never actually physically gets shorter how can it fit into the garage? [link] [comments] |

What is the margin of error in terms of time for gravity assist missions? Posted: 04 Jul 2016 07:20 AM PDT What I mean is, if we calculate that the satellite must be launched at X time to successfully follow the planned trajectory, will launching at X+15 minutes have a major effect? What about X+1 hour or X+1 day? [link] [comments] |
