  • How is technology changing sports? On this episode of StarTalk Sports Edition, we wrap up our “Game Changers” mini-series as we look at the science that has transformed the sporting world. Neil deGrasse Tyson and co-hosts Gary O’Reilly and Chuck Nice talk with Rayvon Fouché, author of Game Changer: The Technoscientific Revolution in Sports, to explore game-changing technology.
    Sports are no stranger to technology, but can certain advancements ruin the spirit of the game? We explore the past, present, and future of innovative sports equipment. Will these innovations be at odds with athletic federations and even the players themselves? What about technology used by non-players? You will learn about the impact camera technology has had on sports viewing as well as sports statistics.
    You’ll hear about the use of computing in athletics and whether or not we can - or should - have robot umpires in baseball and allow artificial intelligence to make calls. Would we want to eliminate humans as judges? Do we secretly like subjectivity in sports? Find out why competitors in a race, even with precise timing mechanisms down to the millionth of a second, can still tie.
    To finish things off, we explore the grey area between what we consider sports medicine and what we consider cheating. With such innovations in medicine, are sports going to be dominated by older athletes like Tom Brady and LeBron James? Not only that, but we investigate how advancements in sports technology have helped not just athletes’ bodies but also their minds. Does that raise any ethical questions? All that and more on another episode of StarTalk Sports Edition!

    Love the swimming segment. It's a simple matter of tolerances. You can talk about the dimensional consistency of gravel against a cleat. You can talk about grass density per square cm. You can't use the same tolerances pouring a foundation as you do building a cabinet door. Great stuff. :)

    • @paulvamos7319
      @paulvamos7319 Před 2 lety +2

      Machining something like a bearing has a lot closer tolerances than building something out of cement can have because, the cement expands and contracts more than metal. So, unless you either build with other materials whose tolerances can be a ten thousandth of an inch or at least line the pool with metal that can be tweaked to within those tolerances, it's going to be impossible to achieve those time tolerances.
      Lol. I just realized that I said what you said but, I was long winded. :)

    Randy Couture was pretty old staying in MMA and I think this would be the most strenuous sport you could do getting in to the years. Although he did 'retire' a few times, he did come back to take back his title and finally threw in the towel at age 47.......in the MMA!!! Anyone over 40, in MMA would be considered grandfathers hehe
    Oh yeah, they also did a special on Randy Couture, showing that our lactic acid system can be so tuned, that you can recycle energy quick enough, to hold MAXIMUM pressure for extremely long times. MUCH longer than your ATP systems can handle and still not be tired from going so hard that would drain any normal human being.

    Indiana used to not observe DST in the entire state, except for counties around Chicago (NW), Evansville (SW) and Cincinnati (SE) which all observed DST. But former Governor Mitch Daniels back around 2000's Indiana law changed to observe DST over the whole state. Which the whole state is Eastern Time Zone with exception of the aforementioned NW and SW counties, that observe Central Time Zone.

    Your combination is amazing , You have sparked curiosity in all of us. Many thanks. Can I ask , if time dilation is true ( the movie interstellar) will the cell matabolism slow down also , as time slows down?
    Just for curiosity, if from the spaceship perspective 1 week has passed and from people near the black hole perspective say few seconds have passed, and during this second they did not drink water, will the survive as it's just seconds or they will die as a week without water ?
    What are your views on this .

    Neil please check out my mini fusion reactor prototype the M.F.C this is not a Farnsworth fusor this is a form of
    mini tokamak and the first of tokamak kind that uses passive confinement and uses one magnet for electrode protection and particle rotation and uses the x-ray presser from the reaction to confine the plasma as the passive containment. so as the reaction rates increase so does the x-rays so the core self balance's. this cuts out the need for any high power magnets and the needs for extra power input for confinement methods that are in uses to day. most of the info is in the descriptions.

    in reference to the comment about swimsuits. I wish you would have reiterated that all of these people that are competing are still top-level athletes. I'd hate for people to have the impression that somebody with no athletic ability could just walk off the street and throw on a suit and break a world record. The suit matters for the people who are all trying to cram into the top 1% of their sport. It may not necessarily be a big deal to people on the lower end.
