W 2/7/18 Mercury edit
Finish Ch9 with Mercury. A volatile subsance melts or evaporates at low temperature. Hydrogen and helium are most volitile, followed by water, followed by silicates (sand/glass), followed by the metals as the least volatile. Since it is so close to the sun, Mercury has has few volatile substances. Start R 2/8/18 Venus editAttempt to log into Miraheze.

Instead two Hot Jupiters bookending 8-12 "plutos" eventually ate all of them. This shows the giant planet "cleaning" out it's region, but not the "pushing" of satellites away from the planet's orbit. This video shows the actual sheparding of a small ring around Saturn W 2/21/18 Pluto and Charon editR 3/8/18 editOpenStax sections on Comets, Kuiper's belt and Oort's cloud.

W 3/14/18 Bell's theorem card game edit
- Cornell solid-state physicist David Mermin has described the appraisals of the importance of Bell's theorem in the physics community as ranging from "indifference" to "wild extravagance".
- Lawrence Berkeley particle physicist Henry Stapp declared: "Bell's theorem is the most profound discovery of science."
- I couldn't sleep for 3 days when I realized what was going on back in the 1990s
- Any interest in understanding Einstein's special theory of relativity and how we know information cannot travel faster than the speed of light?
Conclusion: Today we reviewed relative velocity using the "man-on-train" at Wikipedia:Relative velocity. Then we did the clock argument at wikipedia:special:permalink/829634204#Simple_inference_of_velocity_time_dilation. We reviewed the card game and a solid majority voted to play the couple's game at least once.
Next time, lets look at this:
-
Source Moving->λ and f both change
-
Stationary source->same λ different f
