Horizon, Wednesday

[DaveS]

A quick heads up for next Wednesday, an Horizon program about gravity, and possible gravity control.

Hopefully without too much of Archchancellor Ridcully's Woo-Woo sauce .

Edit: It's on BBC2 at 8 o/c, and the RT quotes one scientist laughing out loud at another's statement. Should be entertaining if nothing else.

[DaveS]

Bumping this to remind people that it's on tonight.

Isn't that Wow-wow sauce?

[DaveS]

Ah, yes, now you mention it. I guess I was confusing it with the usual woo-woo that can surround oddball science.

Thanks for the reminder Dave

[DaveS]

You're welcome Gina  .

For anyone wanting a sneak peek, here's the page from the BBC site.

Cheers Dave - I'll look forward to that   Hard to find much to look forward to these days...

Thanks for the "heads-up" to watch this - I enjoyed much of it but it really did highlight that there isn't much in the research at the moment - and it made some of the scientists look rather silly, but I guess they asked for it LOL

Now going "Woo-woo" sounds like someone is going totally librarian.... or is that Oook-oook?

I thought the stuff about anti-matter displaying anti-gravity properties was a bit far out.

We have anti-matter in labs and I don't think anyone has seen it flying in the opposite direction!

It seemed to be a programme trying to make something out of virtually nothing.

I'm afraid I fell asleep.
