How Earth Sounds from Space

A NOTE TO EVERYONE POSTING HERE!
-------------------------------

OK, first of all I had no idea this video was going to be this popular. Pretty exciting stuff. Anyways, there's alot of arguing on here about sound in space. Obviously sound needs a medium to pass through, to vibrate through so that it can carry the sound waves. Space has no air, and therefore cannot project sound in audible wave form. As it says in the description, these sounds are not from satellites zooming around the earth with a normal microphone. Sohpisticated instruments can detect the different sonic vibrations going on in the planet GENERALLY. So what you are hearing is not what it would be like if you just stuck an ear out the window of a space ship. First of all you would probably either die or go deaf in that ear for the rest of your life because of the pressure of the vaccum. What the remote sensors on the sattellite are doing is analyzing different radio frequencies coming off the surface of the earth and converting it into audible soundwaves for you and I to hear. So you're not hearing whales, you're not hearing cars or even wind. You're merely hearing the general frequencies of the Earth in an audible format.

here's where i got the sound file

Why Mars Died, and Earth Lived

This video explores the most basic question of all: why we explore space? Be sure to experience the visual spectacle in full HD, 1080P.

The Mars rover, Curiosity, is the latest in a long line of missions to Mars: landers sent to scoop its soil and study its rocks, orbiters sent to map its valleys and ridges.

They are all asking the same question. Did liquid water once flow on this dry and dusty world? Did it support life in any form? And are there remnants left to find? The science that comes out of these missions may help answer a much larger, more philosophical question.

Is our planet Earth the norm, in a galaxy run through with life-bearing planets? Or is Earth a rare gem, with a unique make-up and history that allowed it to give rise to living things? On Mars, Curiosity has spotted pebbles and other rocks commonly associated with flowing water.

It found them down stream on what appears to be an ancient river fan, where water flowed down into Gale Crater. This shows that at some point in the past, Mars had an atmosphere, cloudy skies, and liquid water flowing. So what could have turned it into the desolate world we know today?

One process that very likely played a role goes by the unscientific name, "sputtering." Like the other planets in our solar system, Mars is lashed by high-energy photons from the Sun. When one of these photons enters the atmosphere of a planet, it can crash into a molecule, knocking loose an electron and turning it into an ion. The solar wind brings something else: a giant magnetic field. When part of the field grazes the planet, it can attract ions and launch them out into space.

Another part might fling ions right into the atmosphere at up to a thousand kilometers per second. The ions crash into other molecules, sending them in all directions like balls in a game of pool. Over billions of years, this process could have literally stripped Mars of its atmosphere, especially in the early life of the solar system when the solar wind was more intense than it is today.

Sputtering has actually been spotted directly on another dead planet, Venus. The Venus Express mission found that solar winds are steadily stripping off lighter molecules of hydrogen and oxygen. They escape the planet on the night side... then ride solar breezes on out into space.

This process has left Venus with an atmosphere dominated by carbon dioxide gas... a heat trapping compound that has helped send surface temperatures up to around 400 degrees Celsius. The loss of Venus' atmosphere likely took place over millions of years, especially during solar outbursts known as coronal mass ejections.

If these massive blast waves stripped Venus and Mars of an atmosphere capable of supporting life how did Earth avoid the same grim fate? We can see the answer as the solar storm approaches earth. Our planet has what Mars and Venus lack - a powerful magnetic field generated deep within its core.

This protective shield deflects many of the high-energy particles launched by the Sun. In fact, that's just our first line of defense. Much of the solar energy that gets through is reflected back to space by clouds, ice, and snow.

The energy that earth absorbs is just enough to power a remarkable planetary engine: the climate. It's set in motion by the uneveness of solar heating, due in part to the cycles of day and night, and the seasons. That causes warm, tropical winds to blow toward the poles, and cold polar air toward the equator.

Wind currents drive surface ocean currents. This computer simulation shows the Gulf Stream winding its way along the coast of North America. This great ocean river carries enough heat energy to power the industrial world a hundred times over.

It breaks down in massive whirlpools that spread warm tropical waters over northern seas. Below the surface, they mix with cold deep currents that swirl around undersea ledges and mountains. Earth's climate engine has countless moving parts: tides and terrain, cross winds and currents -- all working to equalize temperatures around the globe.

Over time, earth developed a carbon cycle and an effective means of regulating green house gases. In our galaxy, are still-born worlds like Mars the norm? Or in Earth, has Nature crafted a prototype for its greatest experiment... Life?

What If We Detonated a Nuclear Bomb on the Moon?

The U.S. Air Force considered trying to detonate a nuclear device on the moon during the late 1950s. A physicist who worked on the project said a single explosion would have been "microscopic," with little impact. But what if the plans had been bigger—do we have enough nuclear weapons to push the moon out of orbit?

Not even close. Depending on where the detonation happened, sending the moon careening away from Earth would take somewhere between 10 billion and 10 trillion megatons of TNT. The most powerful nuclear device ever detonated, the Soviet Union's "Tsar Bomba," yielded the energy equivalent of 50 megatons of TNT. The current nuclear arsenal of the world could produce less than 7,000 megatons.

The moon is constantly edging away from us, though, without any human intervention. The moon's pull drags a portion of the Earth's water out of its natural position, creating bulges at each end of the planet. As Earth rotates, these bulges exert force on the moon, adding to its kinetic energy and making its orbit grow larger. On average, the moon floats 3 or 4 centimeters further away every year.

Life without the moon would be strange in the near term and disastrous in the long term. If the stabilizing influence of the moon disappeared, the Earth would begin to teeter dramatically on its axis, and seasons would no longer be constant. Over the long term, it's possible the Earth could topple over, as apparently happened to Uranus, which orbits the sun on its side.

Earth 100 Million Years From Now

Earth's landmasses were not always what they are today. Continents formed as Earth's crustal plates shifted and collided over long periods of time. This video shows how today's continents are thought to have evolved over the last 600 million years, and where they'll end up in the next 100 million years.

Cosmic Journeys : The Largest Black Holes in the Universe


Our Milky Way may harbor millions of black holes... the ultra dense remnants of dead stars. But now, in the universe far beyond our galaxy, there's evidence of something far more ominous. A breed of black holes that has reached incomprehensible size and destructive power. Just how large, and violent, and strange can they get?

A new era in astronomy has revealed a universe long hidden to us. High-tech instruments sent into space have been tuned to sense high-energy forms of light -- x-rays and gamma rays -- that are invisible to our eyes and do not penetrate our atmosphere. On the ground, precision telescopes are equipped with technologies that allow them to cancel out the blurring effects of the atmosphere. They are peering into the far reaches of the universe, and into distant caldrons of light and energy. In some distant galaxies, astronomers are now finding evidence that space and time are being shattered by eruptions so vast they boggle the mind.

We are just beginning to understand the impact these outbursts have had on the universe: On the shapes of galaxies, the spread of elements that make up stars and planets, and ultimately the very existence of Earth. The discovery of what causes these eruptions has led to a new understanding of cosmic history. Back in 1995, the Hubble space telescope was enlisted to begin filling in the details of that history. Astronomers selected tiny regions in the sky, between the stars. For days at a time, they focused Hubble's gaze on remote regions of the universe.

These hubble Deep Field images offered incredibly clear views of the cosmos in its infancy. What drew astronomers' attention were the tiniest galaxies, covering only a few pixels on Hubble's detector. Most of them do not have the grand spiral or elliptical shapes of large galaxies we see close to us today.

Instead, they are irregular, scrappy collections of stars. The Hubble Deep Field confirmed a long-standing idea that the universe must have evolved in a series of building blocks, with small galaxies gradually merging and assembling into larger ones.

How I Got My Job in Japan (not JET)

This is how I got my first job in Japan as an English teacher at an eikaiwa (英会話)called Merry England in Matsusaka, Mie Prefecture, Japan. I think I'm really lucky to have stumbled upon such a great position and I'm really looking forward to it. Because I graduated late I was unable to apply for the JET program, but it turned out to be the best thing that happened to me.

Japan: Cost of Living & Paying Bills

Japan: Cost of Living & Paying Bills (A bonus J4M with Guest Sensei: MostAwesomestJes)

Japanese won't say "NO"!?

I would like to tell you Japanese very unique insight through words.
After this video, you may understand little more about us.
Hope you will make good relation with us.
Question and Advice are welcomed!

What NOT to do in Japan

Japan is an awesome place to visit, and no one should let "rules" get in the way of that! But Japanese culture can be very different to what we're used to at times, and some things we do that may be acceptable for us can be surprising and rude in Japan. My husband, Jun, and I put together a list of the most common things we see that can cause trouble (I speak from the perspective of having done all of these!) Mainly, this is if you plan on establishing yourself in a Japanese community through work/family--if you're visiting as a tourist then you don't really have to worry so much about it. :)

As a foreigner you won't be held to the same standards as Japanese people, but if you want to give a really good impression then these are some guidelines you can follow! None of these are things you HAVE to do. They are ideals and not always the followed practice. I just always think it's better to know the ideal standards and then you can choose how closely you want to follow them!

Rule of thumb: Just think about how your words and actions will affect the people around you before you do something! It's as simple as that. :)

Useful Japanese phrase: shouganai (しょうがない) - It can't be helped.

It's pretty similar to "shit happens." You're essentially letting a bad situation slide off your back instead of internalizing it.

FAQ:

"Can I still listen to music/text on the train/bus?"
Yes--sorry I wasn't clear. I meant only making a call on your phone. You won't be strange or rude at all if other people can't hear what you're doing!

"So you can't be outgoing in Japan?"
Of course you can! Sorry for being unclear on this, too. By "don't be emotional" I meant negative emotions. Everyone loves happy people! And some places it's perfectly fine to be loud--just take your cue from the people around you. :)

"So I shouldn't go to Japan? I'll stand out anywhere."
Again, sorry for being unclear! Yeah, foreigners are going to stand out, period. Mainly I meant through actions and not looks, but even then Japanese people don't expect foreigners to know their customs so it's fine to make mistakes! I've done EVERYTHING in this video (and still do some of them), which is why I wanted to talk about it in the first place!

"What about customizing food if I have allergies?"
A lot of restaurants list common allergens on their menus. If you're not sure you can always ask! And you can always ask to see if they'll customize your order--it's just never worked for me.

"Do I have to talk like a robot like you? :( "
No, I just suck at public speaking.(° ▽ °;)We had like maybe a dozen subscribers when I made this video and never expected it to get so much attention. I had no idea how it would end up being perceived and if I could do it again so I didn't sound so "strict" or "uptight" or scare people off from Japan then I would in a heartbeat! My new videos are less crappy. Sorry! :(

One of the best chess openings:The Yugoslav Attack

If I were to make the video again, I'd make two changes: 1) At 5:26, I say "Black will have to capture." There is another possibility, as some commenters have pointed out. Black can just make another move instead of capturing white's dark squared bishop, IF white moves its bishop to h6. If white captures black's bishop on the next move, black can recapture it with its king. However, this is not part of the video. It is a situation that could arise if white moves its bishop to h6.

Green Lasers: What Can Certain mW Do?

This video compares some of the most common power outputs of green lasers you can buy these days. I compare the difference in visibility and burning between 5mW, 15mW, 35mW, 50mW, 100mW, and 150mW.

Important info after watching this video:
-I used fog to bring out the beams.
-This video is only about green lasers because they are nearly always fixed focus and have a small beam diameter.
-I mention powers where tricks are EASY to do. You may be able to pull off burning tricks with less power than what I state, but these are bench mark powers where you can reliably do these burning tricks.
-Additional focusing with extra lenses can lower the threshold of what you need to burn. Watch my focus video for a better explanation of this.
-I go by actual power of these lasers in this video, not advertised. Nearly all cheap laser sites sell lasers marked from 100mW to 300mW when in reality the actual power is much lower.

How a Laser Works

Bill shows how the three key characteristics of laser light - single wavelength, narrow beam, and high intensity - are made. He explains the operation of a ruby laser - the first laser ever made - showing how electronic transitions create stimulated emission to give coherent light, and then how the ends of the ruby cavity create a narrow wavelength highly collimated beam

How a quartz watch works

The amazing everyday wristwatch: We never think about it, but only because engineers have made it so reliable and durable that we don't
need to. At its heart lies a tiny tuning fork made of the mineral quartz. In this video Bill takes apart a cheap watch and shows extreme
close-ups of the actually tunings fork. He explains how the piezoelectric effect of quartz lies at the heart of the watch's
operation.

How to learn English words: English vocabulary FAQ | British English

Summery of Top tips for learning English vocabulary

(1) Learn English vocabulary in context, not through lists

CONTEXT is important so that you can learn HOW, and in WHAT situation to use words. You will learn better quality vocabulary by learning naturally through your English reading, speaking writing and listening.

(2) Don't learn individual English words, learn phrases

Generally however vocabulary is best learned in phrases.This is because words make very strong patterns with other words (called collocation)

(3) Aim to learn 1000 new words a year

I would say that you should learn 1000 words a year. This sounds a lot. But it's not.

(4) Get out of the habit of looking new words up in the dictionary.

Only look up English words in the dictionary when you are reading if you REALLY have to. If a word is important it WILL come up again, whether in reading, English conversation or whatever.

"3d on Paper - Optical Trick 9x6" "Optical Tricks" "BEST OPTICAL ILLUSIONS IN THE WORLD!" "Trick Photography Optical Illusions" "Beer Glass Optical Illusion "Bar Trick" Funny"

!!!COOL OPTICAL TRICKS!!! (Optical Magic Tricks)

Crazy Chris is putting a hole in his hand and shows you how to do a cool optical trick by putting a hole in your hand!

Objective: to understand how your eyes combine images.

Materials Needed:
~ Your Eyes
~ Your Hand
~ Paper Towel Tube

Step 1) Place a paper towel tube, or a toilet paper tube up against one of your eyes.

Step 2) Place you hand and the end of the paper towel tube or in the middle of a toilet paper tube and slowly move your hand towards your face.

HOW DOES IT WORK:
You might think that you see with your eyes but you actually see with your brain. As light passes through your eye it actives the rental cells. These cells take light waves and turns it into electrical energy. This signal is sent down a cord known as the optic nerve. This information passes through a part of your brain known a the corpus Col lo sum a portion of the brain that connects both sides of your brain as well as where eye signals cross over to the other side of the brain. here the electrical signals are matched up and similar signals or strong signals get over lapped. The strong image from your left eye and the strong image from your right eye over lap each other which is why you see a hole in your hand. This upside down single image is sent to the back of your brain to an area known as the visual cortex. Here the electrical signals from the bottom of the eye are interpreted as up and the images you see are right side up.
