| Posted: 10 Jun 2020 06:28 AM PDT So Saturday night the family and I were outside looking at the stars, watching satellites, looking for meteors, etc. At around 10:00-10:15 CDT we watched at least 50 'satellites' go overhead all in the same line and evenly spaced about every four or five seconds.

| How would two planets share a moon? Posted: 10 Jun 2020 06:20 AM PDT I've created a solar system for a story but need help with logistics of how the planets would interact. Questions welcome. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Jun 2020 05:25 AM PDT Is it traveling at the speed of light through water? Or, is it back up to the speed of light in a vacuum? If so where does it get that energy boost from? [link] [comments]  |

| Ask Anything Wednesday - Biology, Chemistry, Neuroscience, Medicine, Psychology Posted: 10 Jun 2020 08:09 AM PDT Welcome to our weekly feature, Ask Anything Wednesday - this week we are focusing on Biology, Chemistry, Neuroscience, Medicine, Psychology Do you have a question within these topics you weren't sure was worth submitting? Is something a bit too speculative for a typical /r/AskScience post? No question is too big or small for AAW. In this thread you can ask any science-related question! Things like: "What would happen if...", "How will the future...", "If all the rules for 'X' were different...", "Why does my...". Asking Questions: Please post your question as a top-level response to this, and our team of panellists will be here to answer and discuss your questions. The other topic areas will appear in future Ask Anything Wednesdays, so if you have other questions not covered by this weeks theme please either hold on to it until those topics come around, or go and post over in our sister subreddit /r/AskScienceDiscussion , where every day is Ask Anything Wednesday! Off-theme questions in this post will be removed to try and keep the thread a manageable size for both our readers and panellists. Answering Questions: Please only answer a posted question if you are an expert in the field. The full guidelines for posting responses in AskScience can be found here. In short, this is a moderated subreddit, and responses which do not meet our quality guidelines will be removed. Remember, peer reviewed sources are always appreciated, and anecdotes are absolutely not appropriate. In general if your answer begins with 'I think', or 'I've heard', then it's not suitable for /r/AskScience. If you would like to become a member of the AskScience panel, please refer to the information provided here. Past AskAnythingWednesday posts can be found here. Ask away! [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 09 Jun 2020 11:46 PM PDT I'm doing a project in my science class involving disease outbreak. The scenario is as follows: "An Influenza Virus was released from an ancient tomb in the arctic when the permafrost melted due to climate change. Only those whose families have lived in the area for thousands of years are immune. After spreading slowly at first, once it reached cities, this Ancient Influenza became the most deadly of all the influenza strains that humans have ever seen." I'm supposed to come up with a plan to deal with the virus, so, I was wondering if it's possible to create a vaccine for a new strain of a virus that already has a vaccine? And if so, would it make the process of finding a vaccine any slower or faster? If anyone has any insight, i would really appreciate it! Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Has herd immunity ever been achieved without a vaccine? Posted: 09 Jun 2020 01:33 PM PDT Pretty self explanatory question. Herd immunity was the main argument against the lockdown (mainly by people who don't know what herd immunity is), but was just wondering if it has ever been reached without a vaccine?

| How does a cell build a copy of a virus? Posted: 09 Jun 2020 01:26 PM PDT Some viruses have complex shapes and weird structural properties. I understand that the virus's RNA codes for everything it needs, but mechanically how is it assembled in a host cell? I know RNA codes for proteins, but beyond that I have no idea how a cell actually builds things, be it a virus or its own internal machinery. [link] [comments]  |

| Questions about evanescent fields? Posted: 09 Jun 2020 10:15 AM PDT 1) Why do evanescent fields actually form. I've got a solid understanding of what they are and everything about them, but do they actually form. The closest answer I've found is because waves cannot be discontinuous as this goes against the laws of conservation of energy and momentum but I don't get how the wave is discontinued and why it's can't just all reflect as it's total internal reflection? 2) If there is another boundary close enough to the first one so the evanescent field doesn't have time to fully decay, it can continue propagating- this is frustrated total internal reflection. What I don't get is that the reason the evanescent fields can't propagate is because the E and M fields are not in phase, so how does another boundary put the fields in phase so they can continue as a propagating wave?
