- Of all the nuclear tests completed on American soil, in the Nevada desert, what were the effects on citizens living nearby and why have we not experienced a fallout type scenario with so many tests making the entire region uninhabitable?
- Since the speed of light is finite, how do we know that the galaxies’ shapes are really the way they appear?
- Space rockets curve when they launch to go into orbit instead of straight into space, but how is this achieved, is there a lean to begin with, does it naturally occur?
- Does a lens do work when it changes the direction of light?
- What is the difference between Viscosity and Coefficient of Viscosity?
- What are the long term effects of the morning after pill?(Levonorgestrel 1.5 mg)
- What is NASA hoping to learn from sending a probe to The Sun?
- Is magnetic flux quantized like photons?
- Is there a time-varying electric field & displacement current within a supercapacitor?
- What determines what type of radiation an element will generate?
- Titan (Saturn VI) is nearly double the mass of Earth's moon, but the calculated surface gravity is weaker. Why is this the case?
- If terminal velocity wasn’t a thing could rain drops reach sufficient speeds before hitting the ground, to cause damage or even kill someone?
- Most of the meteorites found on the Earth are small. How big part of their mass do they lose flying through the atmosphere?
- How exactly does the NASA sun probe cost $1.5 billion?
- Why are hitboxes so hard to get exact?
- If we could time travel back to the different eras of the dinosaurs, would we need a special suit for the climate back then?

| Posted: 12 Aug 2018 08:42 PM PDT For example, the Andromeda galaxy is not situated perpendicularly to Earth, so the light from it's northernmost point takes longer to reach us than the light from the southernmost one, which surely creates some distortions? [link] [comments]  |

| Does a lens do work when it changes the direction of light? Posted: 13 Aug 2018 05:08 AM PDT Light has a speed and direction (velocity) and to change this vector, a force must be applied. Is this because of the lack of mass (but by Einstein's Equation, anything with energy has some mass?"E =mc²") [link] [comments]  |

| What are the long term effects of the morning after pill?(Levonorgestrel 1.5 mg) Posted: 12 Aug 2018 07:18 PM PDT Almost universally, doctors will tell you that the morning after pill should not be used as a regular form of birth control. It is an emergency contraceptive and should be reserved for emergencies only. Short term effects include possible nausea, vomiting, headache and delayed periods. This is well documented. However, I cannot find any studies on the long term effects of taking Levonorgestrel. The only studies that exist, have been conducted on the intrauterine delayed-release levonorgestrel-releasing device(Lng-IUS/Mirena), and not the oral intake pill. Here are some of them Where can I find information on what the morning after pill does to you in the long term? I would be interested in both cases, where the pill was taken once or twice, and where the pill was taken(against medical advice) regularly. [link] [comments]  |

| Is magnetic flux quantized like photons? Posted: 12 Aug 2018 01:17 PM PDT It's easy to think of light traveling as photons with characteristic energies because they can be detected as such. Does magnetic flux (or an electrical field) have the same characteristics? In other words, is there a particle-like behavior that can be observed? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Is there a time-varying electric field & displacement current within a supercapacitor? Posted: 12 Aug 2018 04:20 PM PDT Since a supercapacitor combines both electrostatic double-layer capacitance and electrochemical pseudocapacitance methods, I'm curious if it behaves similar to a classical simple capacitor, producing a time varying electric field, and displacement currents when being charged/discharged.

| How exactly does the NASA sun probe cost $1.5 billion? Posted: 12 Aug 2018 08:28 AM PDT Is there a line-item breakdown? Does labor make up a significant part of that number? [link] [comments]  |
| Why are hitboxes so hard to get exact? Posted: 12 Aug 2018 03:20 AM PDT A lot of video games have bad hitboxes, and often you bump into nothing. Why can't the developers just lock the hitboxes to the models & animations? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 12 Aug 2018 05:21 AM PDT I am aware we can't time travel... Yet/ever... I'm not asking about that possibility. I am wondering if we did make it back to the different eras; Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous. Would we need a special suit to breathe or just be in the atmosphere that existed back then? Or would we be okay to go back in just our normal clothes. [link] [comments]  |
