Can we just appreciate how labour intensive this is to make and how Nile actually came up with some great solutions even improving on the instructions he was following. Aerogel is like unobtainium, almost impossible to make. It's a material that literally can not exist without supercritial drying, yet here's a full video on UA-cam showing exactly how it can be made. Amazing.

Just watched the Veritasium video on aerogel. He went to the Aerogel Technologies in Boston and when they showed the super critical drying process I noticed something that would have made your process much smoother. It appears they poured the gel into small molds and did not remove the gel from the mold until AFTER the super critical drying process was complete, doing so gave the smooth perfect appearance you were looking for.
"My favorite thing about it is that it reacts with water and turns back into silica, and it can do this in both your lungs and your eyes. The best part too, is that the particles form in the eyes under the surface, and they're way too small to remove so it can lead to permanent blindness."
Oh yeah, that's what I love about it too

Even if you can't see the aerogel at 23:34's shooting, like Nile wanted, the scene still looks really pretty to me in an abstract way. Something about the lighting around the chamber walls and the liquid CO₂, and the straight-on perspective, is such a visually-appealing shot to me. I don't know.

Thanks for the rundown of a simple high pressure CO2 setup; we've made this setup in our lab for experiments (with modifications ofc)
Addressing the orange light in the chamber: CO2 not only absorbs in the IR area of the EM-Spectrum but also in the VIS area at about 430 nm (blue to violet), resulting in the light passing it to be orange (complementary color).

love the content, been a fan for a while, when assembling use Hercules 'Mega Tape' (the gray stuff with the knight holding a shield) and 'Leak Lock' blue joint sealing compound, put the tape on (at least 3 wraps, then paint the leak lock on the tape that's on the threads in an even layer (going with the tape/threads, not against it so you don't unravel your tape!), then crank it down. never back a fitting out to straighten it up, you'll get a leak, if you have to go backwards more than ~1/16th of a turn then your best bet is to take that fitting out, retape and dope it, then do it again. the worst thing you can do on pipe fittings is back them out for any reason once you've started tightening.
-Friendly steam boiler tech :)
-edit 'Leak Lock' is produced by highside chemicals. get the 4oz bottles as the larger ones the brush is unwieldy on stuff smaller than 2" pipe thread, and you won't use the larger bottles before they start hardening. if you have a smaller bottle that hardens, get some carburetor cleaner or brake cleaner from o'reilly's auto parts and give it a generous squirt, shake it/stir it and it should fix it right up.

I love all of your videos! I was curious when I distilled my ethanol and I found some interesting things about distillation. when under a vacuum, water seems to separate out better, the issue is that the alcohol is more dangerous as it's flash point is lowered under lower atmospheric pressures. Also I managed to figure out that Graphene can separate Water out of the ethanol.. I'm not sure if that would work for methanol but graphene should work for all alcohols, I know sieves work but the process takes a long time, The graphene settles overnight, if left for 48 hours in a deep freezer the ethanol can be run in a generator. I imagine different layered graphene has different storage amounts and properties regarding this theory.
