in the first episode richard dawkins explains the basic mechanisms of natural selection and tells the story of how charles darwin developed his theoryhe teaches a year 11 science class about evolution which many of the students are reluctant to accept he then takes them to the jurassic coast in dorset to search for fossils hoping that the students can see some of the evidence for themselvesdawkins also visits the place of his birth nairobi where he interviews a prostitute who seems to have a genetic immunity to hiv and talks to microbiologist larry gelmon he goes on to predict that genetic immunity is a trait that will become more prevalent in the community over timesubscribe to real science ampamp reason: http:wwwyoutubecomnatcen4scienceed http:wwwyoutubecommolecularbiovids http:wwwyoutubecomchattiestspike2 http:wwwyoutubecomphilhellenes http:wwwyoutubecomaronra http:wwwyoutubecomthunderf00t http:wwwyoutubecomcdk007 http:wwwyoutubecompotholer54 http:wwwyoutubecompotholer54debunks http:wwwyoutubecomshanedk http:wwwyoutubecomandromedaswake http:wwwyoutubecomextantdodo http:wwwyoutubecomdonexodus2 http:wwwyoutubecomc0nc0rdance

the norwegian spiral anomaly of 2009 appeared in the night sky over norway on 9 december 2009 it was visible from and photographed from northern norway and sweden the spiral consisted of a blue beam of light with a greyish spiral emanating from one end of it the light could be seen in all of trndelag to the south the two red counties on the map to the right and all across the three northern counties which compose northern norway as well as from northern sweden and it lasted for 2--3 minutes according to sources it looked like a blue light coming from behind a mountain stopping in mid-air and starting to spiral outwards a similar though less spectacular event had also occurred in norway the month before

in physics and mathematics the dimension of a space is roughly defined as the minimum number of coordinates needed to specify every point within it for example: a point on the unit circle in the plane can be specified by two cartesian coordinates but one can make do with a single coordinate the polar coordinate angle so the circle is 1-dimensional even though it exists in the 2-dimensional plane this intrinsic notion of dimension is one of the chief ways in which the mathematical notion of dimension differs from its common usagesthere is also an inductive description of dimension: consider a discrete set of points such as a finite collection of points to be 0-dimensional by dragging a 0-dimensional object in some direction one obtains a 1-dimensional object by dragging a 1-dimensional object in a new direction one obtains a 2-dimensional object in general one obtains an n1-dimensional object by dragging an n dimensional object in a new direction returning to the circle example: a circle can be thought of as being drawn as the end-point on the minute hand of a clock thus it is 1-dimensional to construct the plane one needs two steps: drag a point to construct the real numbers then drag the real numbers to produce the planeconsider the above inductive construction from a practical point of view -- ie: with concrete objects that one can play with in one039s hands start with a point drag it to get a line drag a line to get a square drag a square to get a cube any small translation of a cube has non-trivial overlap with the cube before translation thus the process stops this is why space is said to be 3-dimensionalhigh-dimensional spaces occur in mathematics and the sciences for many reasons frequently as configuration spaces such as in lagrangian or hamiltonian mechanics ie: these are abstract spaces independent of the actual space we live in the state-space of quantum mechanics is an infinite-dimensional function space some physical theories are also by nature high-dimensional such as the 4-dimensional general relativity and higher-dimensional string theoriesin mathematics the dimension of euclidean n-space en is n when trying to generalize to other types of spaces one is faced with the question what makes en n-dimensionalquot one answer is that in order to cover a fixed ball in en by small balls of radius one needs on the order of n such small balls this observation leads to the definition of the minkowski dimension and its more sophisticated variant the hausdorff dimension but there are also other answers to that question for example one may observe that the boundary of a ball in en looks localy like en 1 and this leads to the notion of the inductive dimension while these notions agree on en they turn out to be different when one looks at more general spacesa tesseract is an example of a four-dimensional object whereas outside of mathematics the use of the term quotdimensionquot is as in: quota tesseract has four dimensionsquot mathematicians usually express this as: quotthe tesseract has dimension 4quot or: quotthe dimension of the tesseract is 4quotalthough the notion of higher dimensions goes back to ren descartes substantial development of a higher-dimensional geometry only began in the 19th century via the work of arthur cayley william rowan hamilton ludwig schlfli and bernhard riemann riemann039s 1854 habilitationsschrift schlafi039s 1852 theorie der vielfachen kontinuitt hamilton039s 1843 discovery of the quaternions and the construction of the cayley algebra marked the beginning of higher-dimensional geometrythe rest of this section examines some of the more important mathematical definitions of dimension

what an astronaut039s camera sees
Bookmarked 773 weeks ago
an intimate tour in 1080p of earth039s most impressive landscapes as captured by astronauts with their digital cameras dr justin wilkinson from nasa039s astronaut team describes the special places that spacemen focus on whenever they get a momentwe start with the coast of namibia in southwestern africa the very dry desert coast of the namib desert you can see a cloud band butting up against the shore and some straight sand dunes in the lower left of the picture yeah those are big red sand dunes that the astronauts say is one of the most beautiful sites that you can get when you039re flying coming into the view on the left is an impact crater right in the middle of the picture right about now and some wind streaks we know where this area is because it039s a bit unique we039ve got a major dune field coming into the picture on the left there: the oriental sand sea as it039s called in french and on the top is the isawan sand sea this is the island of sicily with cloud over mt etna so you can039t quite tell there039s a big volcano in the middle of the picture right now and there039s the toe of the boot of italy coming into the picture from the left see a good example of sun glint on the right with the sea reflecting the sun this is the smooth east coast of the kamchatka peninsula again as you move inland it gets even more striking as a picture because of all the volcanoes on this peninsula and the snowy mountains there039s a volcano just coming into the picture from the top left there you can see a knob-shaped feature here is a smaller finger of land in china sticking into the pacific ocean in winter you can see all the snow lower left this is called the qindoa p eninsula and we recognize it and again the sun glint point moving along the coast upper center in a very clear picture the zagros mountains with snow on them in iran in the country of iran here we have the north coast of australia and the gulf of carpenteria and some islands the biggest island at the bottom of the screen there is groote island which means the big island in dutch when you see a huge powerful feature like this and the astronauts do shoot them a lot and we have had some detailed views looking right down the eye looking at the eyewall in fact i seem to remember views of breaking waves on the sea surface at the bottom of the eye amazing detaillook at this neat picture of great salt lake in utah and the variation in color that039s due to an almost a complete blockage of the circulation of the lake by a trestle for a railroad that crosses from one side to the other it stops the circulation and things get a little bit saltier and certainly saltier at the north end of the lake here you see two circles coming in to the top of the view now these are either volcanoes or effects from inside the earth producing circular features we think this is the big bend area of texasthis is an interesting sideways view of the peninsula of florida with the keys stretching out into the lowest part of the picture there and the shallow seas around the bahama islands top right and cuba coming into the picture lower rightand this i believe is the coast of northern chile in south america it039s a very straight coast except for that strange headland out to the right just disappearing and so the desert is the first part of the inland zone and then you see much blacker at the top of the picture the andes mountains with some many dozens of volcanoes here is a thunderhead the typical look of the thunderheads the big rainstorms that develop over the amazon basin and another one coming in top right here039s an obviously a major river there039s an even bigger one coming in on the right that looks to me like it could well be the amazon river with one of its big tributaries on the left and the flow would seem to be from the bottom of the picture to the top
