Which Planet Has the Best Eclipse?
Check out the interactive lab here: labs.minutelabs.io/eclipses/
Solar eclipses don't just happen here on earth - moons of other planets also pass between those planets and the sun, resulting in various types of solar eclipses on Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and even non-planets like Pluto, Eris and various asteroids. So, where are the best eclipses in the solar system? For that, we need a tier list.

Why Do Eclipses Travel WEST to EAST?
zhlédnutí 268KPřed měsícem
The sun rises in the east, the moon rises in the east, and the stars rise in the east... but solar eclipses, oddly, come from the west. If total eclipses are caused by the sun and the moon, why don't they behave like the sun and the moon?

    I just had a funny thought about magnets, and those people who love crystal and its perceived properties that affect your body. Some people might see it as often associated with spiritual stuff, like the bohemian or similar culture but there is some truth to it. Our body contains iron, and therefore, we are related to iron, or other minerals, or substances, because after all we're made of the same particle, we're just a bunch of atoms put together, and some turned humans, and some pigs. It made me think that since pure iron, which is the most magnetic element there is, usually attracts other and similar metals, and the strength of the magnet solely depends on how thick the magnet is, and the other metal where it sticks to when they come in contact, or close proximity. I tried searching on Google but of course, it's an AI, and it predicts other types of analysis instead of showing similar experiments that might've been done already. Part of it is likely because it's a bit more complex than just a single question. In hypothesis, there is a narrow path just enough for one person to pass through about a hundred meters long. On both sides of the path are giant iron (magnetic) walls towering any living human being, and several times thicker than any human body. Both walls of several meters long are fixed to the ground making sure they don't stick to each other as its properties naturally do. Both walls might be fixed firmly to the ground, and would never have physical contact with each other, but the energy between them being both magnetic materials is so active, but the reason why they're not touching each other is because they're both on opposite sides attached firmly to the ground, and a human being with high iron in his/her blood walks through. I wonder what implications it would have on that person's health, or body, or even the sensation they would feel walking for several meters long narrow path with magnetic walls on both sides. Although the magnetic properties are active energies, but they're not radioactive, so they can't be radiation, but I wonder what it's called. This can't be the first time someone wondered, but Google either doesn't think so, or it just doesn't want me to find written thesis about it lol.

    1:42 I guess that's per cup of human. The whole human body actually radiates about 100W at rest. You get this by 2000 kcal × 4182 J/kcal / (24 × 60 × 60 s) ≈ 97 W.

    If approximations are misleading, isn't it misleading to talk about light getting "bent"? Doesn't light go straight, following space-time? Aren't we talking about gravity bending space-time rather than "attracting photons"?

  • @IWasAlwaysNeverAnywhere

    except. if time has a new dimension each moment. is that really just plus ONE dimension? because then you have another moment and another and another. i guess if you believe the past and present dont really exist then thats fine. but if you believe in the more radical theories like time travel well its not really 3+1 then is it? more like 3 dimensions of space in a time continuum
