    @misterflip20 :D
    Shedload its a slang
    But yeah it sound like shitload :D DDD

    imagine this …
    imagine this telescope staring the sun and burning your eye lol!

  3. frizstyler Says:

    wow all this …
    wow all this complicated scientific stuff makes me feel smart! hehe

  4. misterflip20 Says:

    haha i see.


    haha i see.

    science professors or teachers are quite vulgar where im from xD

    Ha ha ha! Rather …
    Ha ha ha! Rather sadly, he didn’t say shitload of light, which would have been excellent. he actually said shedload. It’s a slang UK expression. I’ve always taken it to be like truckload, only in the amusing units of the shed. Ahh, How we laughed.

    why? are they …
    why? are they trying to spy on God?

    It’s called theory of relativity… If you watch Susan Boyle then this then yes, she is hot, unfortunately I just been watching Dido so she ain’t! All relative.

    “hubble had to be fixed thanks to an accident in the measuring…”

    bullshit. tell us the truth!

    the whole planet uses the metric system, except for: the united states, liberia, and burma. of course they built the hubble telescope mostly using the metric system. but some US engineers (scientists already use the metric system, even in the US) were involved with the mirror, and they messed it up with their inches and failed to get the distances to be compatible with the metric telescope.

    5:47 S&%* load of light! YUP I heard it! =P NTW That’s alot of light!

    did he say were …
    did he say were gonna be able to capture a shitload of light? lol

    she is hot, who is she?

    Wow!! Great …
    Wow!! Great telescope! With this European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) observe and detect extrasolar planets and other objects will be much easier! Just incredible!

  13. theblackhand2 Says:

    Wow!!
    Wow!!

  14. EUROSUN1 Says:

    Incredible; 42 …
    Incredible; 42 Meters. ESO telescope Another Great European Project !! Go Europa !!!

    Well, if there’s a …
    Well, if there’s a small number of photons, you can just take the photograph for a long time. The Hubble deep field photographs took months I think. A photon will not limit the resolution at all, until you get to the extremely small, like an optical microscope will have limits. That’s why an electron microscope is better than a light microscope (electron has a smaller wavelength).

    except photons …
    except photons aren’t really little dots like a pixel they are used to describe the particle properties of light. just small packets of energy

    gives a face to “hot with brains”. :D i could learn quantum physics and keep learning and learning and learning.

  19. kiwkee Says:

    mirrors are great …
    mirrors are great but bikes rule (and come on isn’t the vernacular and image better if you have a shitload rather than a shedload?)

    Wow, just imagine …
    Wow, just imagine if they actually did build that 100 m telescope!

    That’s gonna be a BIG eye on the Sky.

    yeah my grandad …
    yeah my grandad went to the telescopes in hawii and he had to park his car quite far away from the top of the mountain and walk to the top beacuse up there it is supposed to be one of the less polluted place in the world and u arent allowed to drive up there because of the emitions

  25. frizstyler Says:

    WOW.then,light does …
    WOW.then,light does actually have pixels(represented by photon rays).so,that means we can ‘t infinitely resolve light!and that mean,it is only possible to enlarge/zoom a vision until we see at least a photon!something smaller than photon will never be seen! i m dizzy ={
