How to Balloon Map Your Neighborhood, Google Maps Style - 5 views

  •  
    'Ever felt like Google Maps doesn't provide enough detail of the aerial view of your neighborhood? Ever wanted to make your own maps or participate in a little homegrown science? Balloon mapping is a cheap way to take aerial pictures for all sorts of purposes-even events like weddings, graduations, or parties-and it's dead simple to do it yourself.'

Could a 21st Century USS Enterprise Really Fly? | Wired Science | Wired.com - 0 views

  • “In summary: Cool idea, not very practical, extremely optimistic in assumptions for near-term developments,” said John Elliott, flight system lead on NASA’s Outer Planet Flagship Mission. “But if it gets people talking and thinking outside the box, it’s not a bad thing.”
  • “But there, as improbable and audacious as it seems, you see the value in scoping projects like this,” he continued. “It makes you think, even if it’s to say, ‘That’s a dumb idea, but maybe if we did this here and tweaked these assumptions here….’ That often leads to valuable innovations in other, more near-term developments.”
  •  
    'Only an imagination made of stone could fail to stir at the thought of a real-world USS Enterprise blasting away from Earth within 20 years, reaching Mars in three months and restoring a sense of epic grandeur to mankind's spacefaring dreams.'

Element Videos - 7 views

  •  

    Tables charting the chemical elements have been around since the 19th century - but this modern version has a short video about each one.
    We've done all 118 - but our job's not finished. Now we're updating all the videos with new stories, better samples and bigger experiments.

    Plus we're making films about other areas of chemistry, latest news and occasional adventures away from the lab.

    We've also started a new series - The Molecular Videos - featuring our favourite molecules and compounds.

    All these videos are created by video journalist Brady Haran, featuring real working chemists from the University of Notttingham.
