I’m probably a little off on the speed /notapilot

A plane’s tire applying a “black mark” to your finger at ~180 mph would transfer enough kinetic energy to your finger that your hand would be obviously thrown back in the process of the transfer. So that part, at least, is probably fake.

Short answer is: you can’t use neutrinos to transmit useful information unless you had a transmission source as neutrino-emissive as, say, the Sun and had HUGELY massive detectors to capture as many neutrino events as possible. A neutrino will on average travel unimpeded through an approximately 22-light-years long

Viola! Free space!

Technically, not “that [proton] beam.” A proton beam could not make it through 800 miles of matter (charged particle, somewhat heavy, Coulombic forces, Bragg peaks, etc). Its the resultant neutrino (uncharged particle, nearly massless) stream from the protons smashing into a near-ground target that goes through 800

See ya, herpes!

I believe you mean “analogue” instead of “analog.” I was like, digital? analog? Huh?

Reggie Miller scored 8 points in 9 seconds one time. So theoretically you ought to be able to put up 39 points in 44 seconds. In other words, Texas A&M still underachieved.

The smoke was an aerosolized lead oxide compound preventing Superman’s X-ray vision.

...the first ever double-deck bus to be powered by electrons alone.

Do not capitalize the word “sievert” as it is a derived SI unit. However its abbreviation (Sv) is capitalized. (Similarly, don’t capitalize the derived SI unit “newton,” but its abbreviation is capitalized.)

The more you know...

Probably takes two balls if you fall into a burnin’ ring of fire.

Some interesting math:

Not the hottest earth has ever been, by a long shot.

Needs Viagra. Or something.

Oh crap. I’ve used the in-shoe method numerous times. Go with gusto.

Making radioactive concrete by doping it with plutonium would make an even more surprisingly effective way to de-ice roads!

Ironically, it was science that enabled the understanding of electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, and biology (which yielded the transistor, computers/computer peripherals, electronic display technology, the Internet, and—presuming you’ve been vaccinated—theoretically your present existence) such that you were able to

A bear can knock a deer’s head off with a single swipe. Glad we don’t have that video footage available.

Born. Discovered quantum invisibility pigment. Dyed.
