Why doesn't Spielberg come to film the last scenes of the films he directs?

Steven Spielberg didn't show up to the director's chair when the final scene of Jaws where the shark explodes was being filmed - he was sure the crew had conspired and were planning to throw him into the water after the "cut" command. Since then, Spielberg has made it a tradition not to show up for the final scene of every movie he directs.

How big can solar prominences be?

Prominences are the most grandiose of all formations in the solar atmosphere. A typical prominence looks like a giant luminous arch formed by jets of plasma that is denser and less hot than the surrounding solar corona.

Quiet, active and eruptive prominences are distinguished according to the type of prominences, according to the speed and features of the movement of matter.

Calm prominences are characterized by slow movement and shape change during their existence - weeks and even months.

Active prominences are characterized by rather fast motions of matter flows from the prominence to the photosphere, from one prominence to another.

Eruptive ("soaring") prominences look like huge fountains erupting at a speed of hundreds of kilometers per second and rather quickly changing their shape; they do not last long - from several minutes to several hours.

With a thickness of 5-10 thousand kilometers, a prominence can have a height of tens of thousands of kilometers. Some eruptive prominences reach a height of 1,7 million kilometers above the surface of the Sun (a very impressive sight, given that the radius of our luminary is slightly less than 700 thousand kilometers).

Застывание сыпучих веществ 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Implanted brain stimulator 30.04.2024

In recent years, scientific research in the field of neurotechnology has made enormous progress, opening new horizons for the treatment of various psychiatric and neurological disorders. One of the significant achievements was the creation of the smallest implanted brain stimulator, presented by a laboratory at Rice University. Called Digitally Programmable Over-brain Therapeutic (DOT), this innovative device promises to revolutionize treatments by providing more autonomy and accessibility to patients. The implant, developed in collaboration with Motif Neurotech and clinicians, introduces an innovative approach to brain stimulation. It is powered through an external transmitter using magnetoelectric power transfer, eliminating the need for wires and large batteries typical of existing technologies. This makes the procedure less invasive and provides more opportunities to improve patients' quality of life. In addition to its use in treatment, resist ... >>

The perception of time depends on what one is looking at 29.04.2024

Research in the field of the psychology of time continues to surprise us with its results. Recent discoveries by scientists from George Mason University (USA) turned out to be quite remarkable: they discovered that what we look at can greatly influence our sense of time. During the experiment, 52 participants took a series of tests, estimating the duration of viewing various images. The results were surprising: the size and detail of the images had a significant impact on the perception of time. Larger, less cluttered scenes created the illusion of time slowing down, while smaller, busier images gave the feeling of time speeding up. Researchers suggest that visual clutter or detail overload can make it difficult to perceive the world around us, which in turn can lead to faster perception of time. Thus, it was shown that our perception of time is closely related to what we look at. Larger and smaller ... >>
