NASA scientist make Visible Magnetic waves

Sweet! Thanks for the link.

 

We used to make magnetic fields visible by putting a magnet under a piece of paper and then sprinkling iron filings on top of the paper. Of course, those didn't dance like these do.

 

That's a great link! Thanks for posting it.

 

Now if they could just tune it to the flux-capacitor... we could have nearly limitless power...

 

Looks fake to me. I guess it's a superimposed animation, not a real lab experiment.

 

This is the geomagnetics lab at NASA-Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, under the direction of Peter Wasilewski and other scientists.

 

Whoa!

Great link.

 

It is animation.

The flux-capacitor is a consumer of energy, not a producer.

I remember a fun lab experiment that used a large neon filled discharge tube and a couple of Helmholtz coils. That one was cool.
