Baby Astronaut Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Would be cool if you could have glasses which let you see the greenhouse gases as they're released. And in other news (while on the topic of seeing the normally unseen) Google has added an "Ocean Bottom" viewer to its Google Earth app. (Wonder if one day it'll let us see the huge garbage trail encircling a huge swath of the ocean and making contributions to our dinner plates?)

the guy Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 if you did then if you where in the city you would spend your time walking into things because you wouldn't be able to see past them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby Astronaut Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 (edited) I'm not really expecting answers to the question. They're just links to open up discussion. You made a good point, but the video clearly shows the emissions and it doesn't seem there'd be a problem of anyone bumping into things.

mrsemmapeel Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I KNEW it! And they always say they don't... just never had proof... You get the proof then we'll admit it:D How could you think we'd do such things;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphus Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 You can already watch girls fart with infrared cameras. They're also good for spotting breast implants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnB Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 It is an Infrared camera. FLIR stands for "Forward Looking Infra Red". AFAICT, what we were seeing were not "Greenhouse Gasses" coming from exhaust pipes, but footage of the hot exhaust gases. FLIR cameras see hot things, they do not discriminate between chemical compounds. Warm, pure O2 would show up as a "greenhouse gas" on that footage. They're also good for spotting breast implants. Ah, the things we study in the name of science. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby Astronaut Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 Or a new acronym for devices that catch the girls red-handed. Female Air Rectally Tossed (FART) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
