Right now, the universe is full of life and light. But over unimaginable spans of time, everything we know will end. Galaxies will fade, stars will die, and even black holes will disappear, leaving behind a cold, dark void. This is the timeline of the universe's death.

Life on Earth has nearly ended five times, and it may be happening again right now.
From massive volcanic eruptions to deadly asteroids and algae gone wild, mass extinction events have wiped out over 99% of all species that ever lived.

A nuclear war doesnโt take weeks or days, it unfolds in minutes. In this scenario, 86 missiles are on the way and only you, the president, can authorize a counterattack. What would you do?

What if continents and oceans switched places? The Pacific becomes a supercontinent. Earth's deepest point is Everest Deep, and is almost nine kilometers below sea-level. And the Mid-Atlantic Canyon divides the world from pole to pole. Life finds a way but struggles in this new, upside-down, inverted world. This all sounds cool, until the oxygen runs out...

The human body is surprisingly resilient. From kidneys and spleens to chunks of your liver and even part of your blood.
Which organs can you safely lose? What happens when you do?
And how can science sometimes step in to replace the irreplaceable?

When a grape is cut nearly in half and placed in a microwave, plasma is produced. Please use caution if attempting this experiment: don't leave the microwave on for too long, make sure the area is well ventilated, and stand back. Remember the contents will be very hot afterwards.
Innovative research conducted in Lausanne, Switzerland has shown that a combination of neurotransmitters and electrical stimulation can restore movement to the lower limbs of previously paralysed rats. But in order for this motion to be made voluntarily the rats must be motivated to walk. This motivation comes in the form of cheering, visual cues, and of course, chocolate.

Robots of the future may be softer, squishier and bendier than robots today. This could make them ideal for space exploration. Check out http://kiwico.com/Veritasium50 for 50% off your first month of any subscription!
On Thursday February 18th, 2021 the NASA Perseverance Rover will land on Mars. It is a wonderful robot, made out of steel and wire โ but will future robots look like Perseverance? There is an emerging field of research on "soft robots", where the machines are flexible. These soft robots have many advantages over traditional robots โ they're safer, lighter, more flexible and can change their shape and size.
NASA is investigating the use of soft robots for space missions. For future visits to Enceladus or Europa, a lander could cut a hole in the ice and then insert a compliant robot through the hole. This robot could then grow and change shape on the other side.

Everything is not as it first appears. This simple plastic ball looks purple until you swing it in a circle and reveal its true nature. Inside are three light emitting diodes (LEDs), which are red, green and blue. They turn on and off in sequence very quickly. When still, the ball appears purple because your eyes and brain don't 'refresh' quickly enough to perceive the changing colours. However, when swung in a circle, the ball changes colours at different locations so the colours don't merge with each other and the ball's true nature is revealed. Now let's not think too carefully about how this illusion is conveyed through video (because the camera doesn't refresh quickly enough to perceive the colours changing either - so you have no hope of seeing it on YouTube even frame by frame).
Or almost any garage - it's particularly good with fixed code gates and garages. Samy proposes other weaknesses with rolling codes.
This video was sponsored by LastPass: http://bit.ly/2oscAe9
I don't condone malicious hacking of gates, garages or other property. The point of this video was to discuss how it could be done using fairly basic technology like this toy that was originally intended as an instant messaging device. I learned a lot in making this video about how codes are sent and received, how they are encrypted or not encrypted. I found out how hard it is to execute in practice something which in principle doesn't seem that difficult.
Special thanks to Samy! His original videos on using the IM ME to open radio frequency garages and gates can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/user/s4myk
He's got a really cool channel so be sure to subscribe if you're interested in this stuff.
