Focus Description:

Take a candle out of your pocket and light it. Take a hoop and, holding it in front of you, place a burning candle on the rim. In front of everyone's eyes, the candle will slowly rise up. When it is in the center of the hoop, circle the hoop around the candle several times. The burning candle at the same time will continue to soar in space.

Then the candle will also slowly fall on the rim. Remove the candle from the hoop, extinguish it and put both objects on the table - the trick is over.

Focus secret:

The candle moves in space with the help of a thin thread invisible to the audience, sewn through the candle, tied in a loop and thrown over the neck. After placing a burning candle in a hoop and balancing it, put a loop on your thumbs.

Hold the hoop with your hands from the sides so that the thumbs are inside it. The hoop with a candle should be at such a distance from your body that the thread worn on the thumbs and thrown over the neck is taut.

By moving the hoop away from you and towards you, you will make the candle move in space inside the hoop. When the candle is in the very center of the hoop, circle it several times around the thread with the candle.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Combat modular laser has been tested 10.05.2012

Northrop Grumman has fire tested a new compact, high-power solid-state laser module designed for use in advanced laser guns. The new 13,3 kW Gamma module belongs to the slab laser class: high-power solid-state lasers with an active medium based on transparent optical ceramics.

The Gamma module has smaller dimensions and weight, contains fewer optical systems than the previous generation of similar FIRESTRIKE laser modules. But most importantly, the main parts of the Gamma have already successfully passed vibration and temperature tests in accordance with military specifications. Gamma modules can be connected together to create a powerful laser gun, like the 105 kW Joint High Power Solid State Laser based on FIRESTRIKE modules, which was demonstrated in 2009. Thanks to the smaller size and weight of the new modules, the Gamma-based laser gun will weigh only 226 kg and have dimensions of 58x101x30 cm, the size of two microwave ovens, according to Northrop Grumman.

The combination of good beam focusing at long range and high beam brightness at the target makes the Gamma module a highly lethal weapon. During testing of the laser, its operation time reached 1,5 hours, while the power and focusing of the beam exceeded the required indicators. During the tests, the new laser successfully burned through the skin of the BQM-74 target, which imitates a cruise missile.

The Gamma module is not just a demonstrator, but the first attempt to create a truly reliable solid-state combat laser suitable for harsh field conditions. The concept of using modules looks very correct, because it allows you to 'assemble' lasers of different power and dimensions - depending on the platform. So, a powerful 200-kW cannon weighing several tons can be installed on a ship, and one module weighing a couple of hundred kilograms can be installed on a ground armored vehicle. A focused beam of a 13,3-kW laser is capable of quickly burning through thin metal, clothing and human skin, which makes it a very dangerous weapon. Well, a 100-kW laser can almost instantly destroy an artillery shell, a guided missile, burn a hole in the side of a boat, or kill a person.
