SUPERCUT: Helmet Oddity - YouTube

Not so sure about the music, but I've had a lot of fun identifying the sources. As a challenge, how many can you identify without looking at the youtube page & for a bonus, how many of those films do you own?

Apparently there is some trick to embedding videos.

Apparently there is some trick to embedding videos.

There is no trick. Just don't use the embed code, HTML source, or youtu.be links. It's much simpler. Anyway, you have the answer how to embed them in your "Touchscreen Monitor for Orbiter" thread.

The Story of Us

How did we get from a burning ball of rock to mostly covered in water?
It had to have come from somewhere? :shrug::shifty:

Answer that question and you'd get a nobel prize.

Common theories are "Outgassing", that there was H2O enclosed in the magma (like CO2 is in the oceans today and if they get warmer it comes into the atmosphere).
Or impacts of icy stuff, comets, meteorites etc.
Or what's known as "photolysis", which is today a part of photosynthesis. Radiation like photons from the sun break up chemical bonds and you might end up with H2O.

So let's send some more probes into our solar system to find out if our water really comes from comets:thumbup:

My roommate probably left the faucet dripping again.... for four billion years.

Comet's sound quite feasible, what a spectacle that would make!

Star Wars Episode VII

Probably fan-made, but sure as heck made my blood pump in excitement to see STAR WARS VII with the binary sunset theme playing.

PostPanic:
[ame="http://vimeo.com/58626695"]Stardust on Vimeo[/ame]

PostPanic director Mischa Rozema's new short film, Stardust, is a story about Voyager 1 (the unmanned spacecraft launched in 1977 to explore the outer solar system). The probe is the furthest man-made object from the sun and witnesses unimaginable beauty and destruction. The film was triggered by the death of Dutch graphic designer Arjan Groot, who died aged 39 on 16th July 2011 from cancer.

The entire team at PostPanic (the Amsterdam-based creative company) pushed themselves in their own creative post techniques to produce a primarily CG short film crafted with love.

The film's story centers on the idea that in the grand scheme of the universe, nothing is ever wasted and it finds comfort in us all essentially being Stardust ourselves. Voyager represents the memories of our loved ones and lives that will never disappear.

Nothing Beats A Astronaut

While watching TV I happened over this ad and just had to post it:

Who knew Astronauts were so popular?

I didn't know this movie until a few days ago. And I really liked it...
