| Why does my shower curtain seem to gravitate towards me when I take a shower? Posted: 22 May 2017 03:53 AM PDT I have a rather small bathroom, and an even smaller shower with a curtain in front. When I turn on the water, and stand in the shower, the curtain comes towards me, and makes my "space" even smaller. Why is that, and is there a way to easily prevent that? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 21 May 2017 09:11 AM PDT I read something like this ages ago and it intrigues me. Can you really see the same thing in two places in the sky? [link] [comments]  |
| What would happen if you shot a nuclear bomb? Posted: 21 May 2017 05:40 PM PDT Any gun, let's say like the kind of bombs used on Nagasaki or Hiroshima? Are the shells designed to withstand that? Because I'd guess a big drop has a larger momentum than a gunshot [link] [comments]  |

| How does brain control heart rhythm in people that are from neck down paralyzed? Posted: 21 May 2017 04:28 PM PDT If a person is paralyzed due to serious injury to their spinal cord around neck, how does the brain still control the heart or even simple breathing is possible? [link] [comments]  |
| Could living things sink or dive into lava? Or is it simply too dense? Posted: 21 May 2017 05:07 PM PDT This link is near the top of r/all right now: https://gfycat.com/GranularAnnualBactrian The comments are full of people talking about diving in. Would a human actually sink or even be able to get below the surface? Or is molten rock too dense for that? I've wondered this since I was a kid and saw Arnold lowering himself into molten steel at the end of Terminator 2! [link] [comments]  |
| Can you heat something beyond the critical point? Posted: 22 May 2017 07:26 AM PDT Let's say that you have water vapor at critical point, can you heat it beyond that and reach 1000 degrees Fahrenheit? [link] [comments]  |
| Could someone please explain to me the incompleteness theorems? Posted: 21 May 2017 02:00 PM PDT I have a slight problem understanding Kurt Gödel's incompleteness theorems, as I don't have any higher education in such fields. It seems to me that it tells that math, and science by extension, can never describe the whole truth. Am I completely off the chart? [link] [comments]  |
| Why are we unable to remember our baby memories? Posted: 21 May 2017 04:44 PM PDT |
| Some dogs/cats watch TV. Do they understand what they see? Posted: 21 May 2017 03:54 PM PDT Especially the ones who can watch a nature program without "freaking out". [link] [comments]  |
| What recording device can record 3D surround sound that are not just two-channel stereo? Posted: 22 May 2017 02:26 AM PDT The 3D surround sound I mentioned is that kind of sound that can be recognized sound changes including directions, distances and movements. It felts like what recorded is same as we hear in the real world. And we could locate sound even when we close our eyes. [link] [comments]  |
| What Technology Would be Needed to Produce Element 119? Posted: 21 May 2017 03:37 PM PDT By "What technology" I mean: 1. How powerful would this tech need to be to produce element 119, and 2. What, specifically, would one need to produce element 119. [link] [comments]  |

| Do pheromone sprays actually work? Posted: 22 May 2017 05:23 AM PDT I recently came across a pheromone forum where people talk about which sprays to use for certain occasions and the type of effects that they noticed people have when around them. I then went to the site that the forum promotes and you have sprays that help you with attraction, help people feel good around you, make people open up to you, for trust & respect, for people to be more honest and more. The members post great results but it feels too good to be true and the paranoid part of me thinks that what is happening is that when trying one of these sprays they're either giving their surroundings more notice to see if it's working or it's some sort of placebo effect where when they spray it confidence goes up and they report it as results. The reason that I think that there maybe something to it is that it's not a forum with a small number of users, there are a lot of posts and threads on there and it's not like all of them can be because of the above mentioned effects. So I'm really interested in what people on here know about this subject. [link] [comments]  |

| When we burn fossil fuels, aren't we just releasing carbon that was once free? Posted: 21 May 2017 01:24 PM PDT I don't really understand how we can have the highest levels of CO2 in the history of earth if all this organic matter must have gotten the carbon from the atmosphere to begin with.

| Will a hair follicle that sprouted a grey hair permanently grow grey hair? Posted: 21 May 2017 08:58 AM PDT Let's say you consistently pluck grey hairs out if you're the type to deny it rather than embrace it. If you pluck the grey hair, will another grey hair grow from that follicle, or could it return to your original hair colour? [link] [comments]  |
| Does the human brain have a memory cap? Posted: 21 May 2017 03:05 PM PDT Do we ever reach a limit of the amount of information we can store in our brain? [link] [comments]  |
| Does "rotating artificial gravity" work in the vacuum of space? Posted: 22 May 2017 03:01 AM PDT Let's say there was a spaceship like in one of those science fiction films, where a part of the ship rotates to create artificial gravity. Now what if an airlock blows out or some thing else happens so that all the air gets sucked out of the rotating disc-ring-thingy. Is there still "gravity" inside? What if a person in a spacesuit somehow enters the ring after the decompression through a hole on a wall or something like that. Or lets say the tube isn't spinning at all, the astronaut positions him-/herself in the dead center of the pipe, then someone turns the thing on. How does the astronaut gain velocity? Or does he/she? Some clarifications:
tl;dr: is the artificial gravity depicted in scifi movies depended on air to function? EDIT: Everything EDIT 2: Oh and the ring isn't compartmentalized, it's hollow all the way [link] [comments]  |

| Why is Isotope Fractionation important in Astronomy? Posted: 21 May 2017 03:02 PM PDT More specifically, isotopic fractionation in protoplanetary disks? And why is mass independent fractionation important in that context? [link] [comments]  |
