I guess there are not many science enthusiasts on VideoSift

I bet it will still make it out of the queue, it's only a day old.

I wish secondary science education helped us imagine more. High School science was awful, but clips like this help us imagine the future and how studying the natural sciences will get us there. Geekiness aside, this clip gives us hope.

You do mean science *fiction* don't you Ender? we did get some good posts in on the wave / particle video...

In all geekiness, I think Star Trek is far more advanced than Star Wars, tech wise. Teleporters, holodecks, humanlike androids. I mean, in Star Wars they didn't even have decent holograms, just fuzzy blue ones. I guess they were trying to sell Star Wars DVDs here though.
The host of this show is an idiot BTW.
