Hi there! We're having a STEAM science night at our school, and my co-worker and I want to build a Proprioception box. He can't remember where he saw it, but here is the gist: The person is in a box with four walls on wheels. The walls are colored black and white. The person is on a small box of their own and holding something. We move the box, and since the person thinks they are MOVING, they will try and compensate and move to not drop the object, only they are not moving, but they are getting tricked into it. Anyone hear of this? I am trying to find a demonstration and a step by step guide to build the box. Thanks!

Biology as we know it is based on carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen forming complex molecules. Could something similar happen (presumably at extremely high temperatures) using silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, and hydrogen?

im not quite sure where to put this. can zombies be a real thing? I know that there is a fungus in real life that takes control of ants and proceeds to kill them while making them move once the ant dies it continues to make it move and eat other ants I think that if a person messes with the genes it could infect humans and make them into zombies, this is all that i know about it and any info would be great I'm not sure if this is all true as i might not have remembered some details. again any info or input would be great!

What I mean by storytelling is when I read books and papers on biology, psychology, medicine, science and computers so on. Or when I watch the news or see other people talk about it and so on I cannot put it into story!!! Like my own words. Where you can express thoughts and explain it in your own words so it does not sound like I got it from a Google definition. The other day I watched a 8 hour political debate and friend of mine ask me. I could not talk for more than 10 minutes. The other day I read a chapter from a book and I could not put it into words to explain it or talk about it for no more than 5 minutes. I'm not sure if this is short term m…

There is strong evidence that modern humans interbred with Neanderthals and Denisovians. Shouldn't this mean that all three are of the same spieces and modern human a sub-specie?

"If you look at the world, you will see fossilized wood, petrified wood, standing up running through multiple layers." "Sometimes petrified trees are found standing upside down running through many rock layers. They certainly didn’t grow upside down and the layers cannot be different ages. " Dr. Kent Hovind http://www.johnankerberg.org/Articles/science/SC1100W1.htm What do you think?

I am a person who has done a life time of personal observations and experiments on language, words and their effect on human psyche. However, at the moment I have reached a premises that material reality is connected to a superior software, and that human languages do have codes in them that do connect to this superior software. Beyond all this, human brain as well its working, I have found to be connected to some sort of a brain software. My understandings, I have written as a book: Codes of reality! What is language?

Heard a long time ago, that a guy was boiling in water, a mix of good fertile topsoil and packaged gardening soil to sterilize it, then filtered and used that water for hydroponics instead of using commercial 'plant food' products. Does it make any sense ?

Hello, I'm new here so I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this... Anyways, I recently read about blood stain pattern analysis and I was asking myself whether the formulas used there also apply to other fluids. More specifically, if one was to calculate the angle of impact of a bloodstain, one would measure the length and the width of the stain and then divide the width by the length and then take the sin-1 of it: sin-1 (w/l). If one had a drop of water or let's say ketchup, would this formula still work? Water is less dense than blood and ketchup is more dense than blood, does that affect the way that stains form? Thanks in advance

Iv always been interested in science yet I don't have the knowledge some of you possess so I have an idea that I want to run by yous and see what people think and see if there is proof against this or anything but it came out a few years ago the moon was 'drifting away' from the earth and from what I remember there was no real reasoning behind it, I never thought about this much until last night when I spotted a news article stating we are also drifting away from the sun, so here's my hypothesis, what if it's not us or the moon moving and it's instead due to the expansion of the universe like maybe it's not just growing towards the ends but instead expanding from every pl…
