How to Make a Quantum Tunnel In Real Life
In this experiment I show you to perform quantum tunneling. I first explain what quantum tunneling actually is, then I show you how to make it happen. I talk about total internal reflection and how light can bounce off boundary layers and then how light can actually tunnel through it.

Can You Really Shoot for the Stars? Would You Ever Hit Any?
In this video I show you what happens when galaxies collide. I also show you what would happen if you were to shoot a rocket straight into space without turning. Would it ever hit anything? I show you how empty space actually is! Software used was Universe Sandbox and SpaceEngine The Action Lab Box: https://www.theactionlab.com… Continue reading Can You Really Shoot for the Stars? Would You Ever Hit Any?
What Shape is Our Universe? Weird Experiment Shows What Happens In Universes With Different Shapes

Minimal Surfaces—The Shapes That Help Us Understand Black Holes
In this video I talk about minimal surfaces and how you can do your own experiment to prove if something is a minimal surface. I talk about why minimal surfaces are important in math and physics and show you some neat experiments to make several minimal surfaces at home The STL file for these eggs:… Continue reading Minimal Surfaces—The Shapes That Help Us Understand Black Holes
