Errata: 1. The phrase "Infinite volume hypothesis" is incorrect here. I meant to say either "Infinite density hypothesis" or "Zero volume hypothesis" (each implies the other). 2. Typo. The proton is in fact around one TRILLION times smaller than a full stop, not one billion. 3. Typo. This should of course read "..YouTube account". Thanks to Agnostic1 for making me aware of that! Please check out the giants of YouTube's pro science collective: Thunderf00t - Creator of the 'Why do People Laugh at Creationists?' series and many other fine videos. http://www.youtube.com/thunderf00t Potholer54 - Creator of the 'Made Easy' series as well as the new 'Debunking Creationist Junk' series. http://www.youtube.com/potholer54 http://www.youtube.com/potholer54debunks AronRa - Creator of the 'Foundational Falsehoods of Creationism' series. http://www.youtube.com/aronra DonExodus2 - Creator of the 'How Evolution Works' series and many other excellent videos. http://www.youtube.com/donexodus2 Absent from the video but certainly no less important is cdk007! http://www.youtube.com/cdk007 Thanks for all your comments and suggestions.

grade students to send me questions they had about astronomy, and I
answer them on camera. There were so many I had to split this into *5* parts! - The Bad Astronomer |

| Google TechTalks - April 11, 2006 Alberto Conti Carol Christian ABSTRACT A revolution is now underway in Astronomy and Astrophysics. The next decade will witness the completion of massive, wide-area, multicolor imaging and spectroscopic surveys of the local and distant Universe. With its strong legacy of public outreach, Hubble's Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) has been responsible for how most of the world views our universe. We recognize that, given the coming flood of information, the next step of this task is to allow users to actively explore the cosmos themselves. In this talk we hope to show some of the potential explorations of this wealth of data to help us all better |
