Posted May 27, 2010 (edited) I can't be the only science nerd here, so let's talk about it! Anything that's science, we can talk about. Partly, I just wanted to post this video: http://www.tenthdimension.com/medialinks.php This is AMAZING to me. It's a real eye opener Links: A bunch of mathematical formulae A general purpose math reference site Imagining the 10th dimension The future of Earth as a planet A post with scans of a study about dimensions from a publication Synthetic Bacterial Genome Takes Over Cell Edited May 28, 2010 by War Pig Killer Share this post Link to post
Posted May 27, 2010 FOR SCIENCE! I want to watch the video, but I'm in public and don't have head-phones...so it will have to wait. I'm a big science nerd, especially biology. I like to make sure I always have a New Scientist magazine on me, and love disocvery and NatGeo channels. Share this post Link to post
Posted May 27, 2010 Science is good. I'm a scatterbrained Biology student. Share this post Link to post
Posted May 27, 2010 Science is good. I'm a scatterbrained Biology student. I'm a science nerd - I'll probably become an engineer. It sucks - I aced my bio exam but didn't pass my graduation test. This is gonna be embarrassing - 10 hours of remediation + retaking the test. New video: http://thefutureofourworld.ytmnd.com/ Share this post Link to post

Posted May 27, 2010 This topic should be available as a resource by the way, so if you find any interesting studies/videos or any reference pages, feel free to post them! And please leave out wikipedia - anyone can search wikipedia. Share this post Link to post

And please leave out wikipedia - anyone can search wikipedia. Lol good old wikipedia at uni they actually tell us if we use it as a reference you'll lose marks (though usually by 2nd year people realize that websites in general just don't cut it). I enjoy science I'm actually currently doing a BSc at the moment majoring in Climate / Meteorology. I've always found physic's to be really hard for me though it just doesn't seem to blend to well with me I get so jealous of my physic's lab partner because she's so smart and is always helping me out. I think as well as discussing video / websites people could also recommend good science books as well. Share this post Link to post
Posted May 27, 2010 (edited) For science! *Goes to dig up scanned articles from an old thread* About dimensional travel and quantum and shtuff. http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/04/05/...ses/?test=faces http://i42.tinypic.com/4v0ktt.jpg http://i39.tinypic.com/a3yznr.jpg http://i43.tinypic.com/9bg0b9.jpg http://i43.tinypic.com/2qx47rb.jpg http://i44.tinypic.com/34hyxyr.jpg http://i43.tinypic.com/dc8sqc.jpg http://i43.tinypic.com/2qx47rb.jpg http://i44.tinypic.com/34hyxyr.jpg http://i43.tinypic.com/dc8sqc.jpg http://www.physorg.com/news191168001.html Edited May 27, 2010 by RheaDark Share this post Link to post

Posted May 27, 2010 (edited) Science freak. Especially if it comes to bilogy, but the other areas are nice, too... it's only that with them I'm more interested in the fancy parts. Can't find a link right now, but today I read in the newspaper that the moon IS as old as the earth, supporting the therory that it actually is just a lump of the earth's mantle.

I'm a chem/physics nerd. I just can't get into bio. Too squicky for me. As computers can technically fit into the same topic as science, I figured out how to control my linux laptop's terminal remotely on both my iTouch and my parents' Windows comp. Also, I can control my iTouch on both comps. EDIT: Also, who likes the new topic description? Edited May 28, 2010 by War Pig Killer Share this post Link to post

For the good of all of us, except the ones who are dead ... yeah, the only 'sciencey' mug I have is an Aperture Science mug... I've always had a mild interest in science, but never really started research or... anything Although I've had to look up various aspects of biology for writing, and have yet to find a way to make a humanoid fly. ... -hides in the corner feeling not smart Dx- Share this post Link to post

Posted May 28, 2010 Science > what religion teaches us. Yupp, hardcore aetheist here. Has anyone seen any of Richard Dawkins' documentaries btw? Everyone who's interested in science and all that kind of stuff should take a look at those. Share this post Link to post

Posted May 29, 2010 See I find Dawkins overbearing and fanatical. Really he's a close to a Fred Phelps as the Atheist community has got. Hence I won't have anything to do with him. If you want to get a point across I'm pretty sure there are ways of doing it that don't imply that everyone who disagrees with you is a moron. Share this post Link to post
