Most of them are on YouTube. Quote

Paid Members Surf Digby Posted May 24, 2023 Paid Members Posted May 24, 2023 Today I learned that there were 26 different cars used to portray KITT in the original Knight Rider, ranging from Trans Ams that were stock apart from the sensor and trim stuck on the front, to fibreglass shells stuck over dune buggies for the jumps. I'm not into cars, and I'm only a casual Knight Rider fan, but I find the Knight Rider Historians channel on YouTube fascinating, even though it goes into obsessive nerd levels of detail. Or possibly because it goes into obsessive nerd levels of detail. Quote
Spud Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 TIL there are observatories around the world that detect gravitational waves from space. They’re caused during events like black holes colliding (or aliens!) that send ‘shockwaves’ through space. But what I loved about finding this out is the fact that these observatories use lasers and mirrors to detect changes the size of less than 1/10,000th of a proton. You can also download an app that tells you when a wave is detected and what the possible source is. I’m downloading it but it takes a while to get past events so I’ve not had a chance to look at it properly. Quote

I remember watching a show ages ago about that, but can’t for the life of me remember what it was. I just remember the two lasers being set in an ‘L’ shape and then it measuring how long it takes for a beam to “return” from hitting the mirror, and any minuscule fluctuation then indicates a gravitational wave warping time ever so slightly.

I’d love to watch a documentary about this sort of thing. These observatories are 4km long with mirrors at each end - 4km and they can measure changes that minuscule is mind-blowing. Might have to fall down a YouTube rabbit hole over the weekend. Quote
