Wanted: a Real Science Channel

Posted by michael on from the dream-on dept.

You ever thought about what a real science channel would look like? Something to counter fakers and disinformation? Maybe it can happen.

  1. Fake moon landing? by incom · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    The only dubious thing in my mind about the moon landing is the use of thin gold foil for spacecraft walls. Can someone point me to a link that explains how this is possible? Honestly, I WANT to believe int the moon landing, but my gut says its fake.

    I remember all the formulae moving around on the screen as they wor worked out. -That show taught me algebra, geometry and calculus through physics before I was in 5th grade.

    Ah yes, but it obviously didn't teach you spelling... Although intuition works for most of the show's demonstrations, your intuition failed you when you tried to sound out the word 'were.' ;)

  3. A Real Sci Fi channel would be nice too... by thelizman · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    ...hey, real science is great and all, but real sci-fi would be nice. What we have now is a "Sci Fi" channel that puts crap like "Tremors" and "Crossing Over" on between reruns of good shit like Farscape or Lexx. Wait, I haven't seen Lexx in reruns. Oh, and they cancelled "Invisible Man". Lets face it, Bonnie Hammer and the gang fucked it up, and now they're pushing half-assed creature flicks on their audience.

    Yeah, I'm bitter about the Farscape thing.
