Can a Rocket Fly in a Vacuum Chamber?

In this video I experiment if a rocket can fly in a vacuum chamber. I use a special method so that we can observe the rocket exhaust thrust in order to make sure that the vacuum chamber stays under vacuum and that the rocket is not pushing off of any chamber walls. In order to do this I use a soda can as my rocket. Since the compressed CO2 is dissolved in the liquid we can actually observe the expansion of the gas by looking at the liquid in slow motion. This is needed in order to show that the rocket does not push of the walls of the vacuum chamber, but is actually moving because of the momentum of the expanding gas being thrown out the back. This is the same way that rockets work in space. I love this experiment because it shoots down any crazy notion that surrounding air is somehow needed or something to push of is needed in order for a rocket to fly in space!

What Happens When You Put 16 Twinkies In A Huge Vacuum Chamber?

In this video I put 16 Twinkies in my vacuum chamber. I talk about what I think will happen when I put them in the vacuum chamber. When the air is sucked out the Twinkie’s internal pressure makes the Twinkies expand. Then when I let the air back in they are crushed back down.

What Happens When You Put Aerogel In A Vacuum Chamber And Hydraulic Press?

In this video I put “solid air” or aerogel in my vacuum chamber and then in my hydraulic press. I put it in the vacuum chamber because aerogels are 98% air but air very strong still. Aerogels are are also very good insulators because they are mostly air. What’s neat is they are even better insulators than the air they are made of because the pores are smaller than the mean free path of the molecules.

Can I Make Ferrofluid Out Of Cheerios With A SuperMagnet?

In this video I use my hydraulic press to crunch up some cheerios. I put the crunched up cheerios in a bag with water and use my super strong neodymium magnet to extract iron filaments from the cheerios. Then I mix it with some oil to make ferrofluid! I then compare my ferrofluid with some real ferrofluid that I purchased. Then I crush some fan mail that was sent to me from:

Warning: Never Eat an Orange By a Balloon! The Orange Oil Experiment

In this video I show you what happens when you squirt an orange peel near a balloon. I talk about why this happens and this leads me to talk about how many oranges it would take to fuel your car using Limonene. Watch this awesome video and use it to disappoint any small kid when you accidentally pop their balloon! Also why are oranges bitter after brushing your teeth?
