  • Create a realistic looking Jupiter with a jar, milk, dish soap, and food coloring.
    I came up with this technique after watching footage of liquid orbs floating aboard the International Space Station.
    I wondered if you could create planet-like orbs made of milk on the ISS.
    What I figured is that if you were to substitute water for milk (higher fat content would be ideal) and put a 2 drops of red food & 1 drop of yellow food coloring in milk, take a syringe and give it a puff of air so it gets spread out, then ad a drop of dish soap on each pole of sphere. Hopefully the surface tension between the fat molecules and soap will create a similar reaction to how the texture & clouds of planet Jupiter work. And also look very similar to it as well.
    You could have the milk sphere be suspended by a tiny rod or wire? So you wouldn't have to chase it around while applying food coloring and soap, this way would give you more control and once you got the milk sphere looking good, you could then release it, letting it float around the ISS.
    Now this is just a theory, but I hope this video will inspire those aboard the ISS to give it a shot !!!
    So please share this video and see if we can actually get astronauts to try this out.
    For more videos that deal with liquids in micro-gravity, please check out SCIENCE OFF THE SPHERE. www.physicscentral.com/explore... which are a set of videos created by astronaut Dr. Don Pettit who I actually have bounced around some ideas with on this subject.

      Nope, came here from PBS Space Time. SciShow are ridiculously bad at science, they have no scientific background and just copy paste random crap. They interviewed an ARTS student who was pretending to be an anti-GMO 'scientist' and made entire episodes of how GMO is dangerous etc. until ACTUAL scientists (like Myles Powers) called them out on it. They swore they would correct it and took the video down to silence dissent then never mentioned it again. It's fun to watch them squirm every time actual scientists call them out on their BS, but generally they're just typical regressive lefty lunatics peddling politics in the guise of 'education.' I strongly urge you to unsub them and find REAL scientists to follow. Myles Powers is a good one.

      Wait... i just realized that I got that from PBS SpaceTime... I haven't even been subscribed to SciShow for months, why the hell did I say SciShow? That is what I get for posting in the early hours of the morning, I should get to sleep.

    For the microgravity test, could have a spherical heating element in the middle of a long stick, that has hydrophilic coating up to the radius of the liquid Jupiter, then hydrophobic coating to stop the sphere from moving up the stick. This might couple with water tension to keep the heating element centered in the water. Rotate stick and heating element slowly to give spin to the water, and maybe that combined with the heating would produce some interesting effects. Probably good to use particles in a transparent fluid too, instead of milk, so a stereoscopic recording could be analyzed by computers to give flow patterns.

    The view from top at 2:51 gave me an idea. Use something food safe instead of soap and different mixtures of chocolate/cocoa powder and milk instead of food coloring and you've got an amazing way to serve hot chocolate.

    Have you ever tried other types of milk?
    Banana milk (yellow), Strawberry milk (pink), Chocolate milk (dark brown), coffee milk (light brown)

    Love the concept, but on the ISS, what can the dish soap be applied to if it's just a free-floating ball of milk?

    • @crazygino77
      @crazygino77 Рік тому

      Probably making it first in a spherical jar, than do something to make it a free floating ball, probably breaking the jar, but that would make some fragments of glass, idk

    When u were spinning the bowl , you could of done a long exposure photograph while slowly injecting the food coloring into the "atmosphere"

    what about do a motorized solar system with small plastic transparent balls with colored dust inside, and all inside a bigger jar with oil and bits of transparent dust (done with translucident clay) and sun LED powered? Would love to see what kind of effect would that do.
    *Also would be interesting to try to find a way so the "planets dust" would be changing the surface pattern (by the planet translation around the sun) with a pattern (instead getting the heavier matter dust keep on the lowest zone destroying overtime the look)
    *Edit: Well xD isolated areas with transparent plastic circles inside the ball to prevent excesive color mixing could work now I think about it

    Interestingly it was claimed that during the making of 2001 a space odyssey, they didn't have the technology for creating saturn so they changed it to jupiter. I wonder if that was a lie/its possible to do it with non digital effects.

    • @CubicApocalypse128
      @CubicApocalypse128 5 років тому +1

      Specifically they couldn't figure out how to make the rings work. The "surface" clearly wasn't a problem, as both planets are gas giants.
