Undergrad Is there a method of lowering linear expansion of a material?
Hi, I was just wondering if it was possible to change the linear expansion (and expansion in volume as volume expansion is three times the linear expansion) of a certain material. The coefficient being; a = (Final Length - Initial Length)/ (Initial length) * (ΔT) Is it possible to...- ShiningLegend

Is it possible to artificially simulate telamores?
Is it possible to create artificial enzymes that can simulate telamores? I read somewhere that nanocircle DNA made this potentially possible. I would think that this would be an extremely helpful addition to the anti-aging community. This makes me wonder if we could somehow create a system in...- ShiningLegend

Is There a Fine Line Between Being Smart and Being a Dork in High School?
Science classes and awkwardness are never that great a mix. It's kind of like having an epileptic seizure while juggling water bottles; you just wind up keeling over and taking the bottles down with you. xD And being in front of your crush, best friend, and a lot of other students doesn't...- ShiningLegend

Is There a Fine Line Between Being Smart and Being a Dork in High School?
@DragonPetter: Thank you very much for your advice. I probably need to slightly draw back on my "geocentric" view of everything (that I'm the center of the universe). I enjoy discussing topics with my teacher, it's fun and pretty intellectually rewarding. The problem, I guess, is that, like...- ShiningLegend

Ah, so a "smart" person is an individual who can retain social graces (and don't involuntarily belittle anyone else's intelligence) while a dork is a person who lacks any social skills and remains intelligent but "intelligent-in-ignorance". Hmm, what I've seen, being "smart" is often scorned...- ShiningLegend

:P So, I'm a Sophomore in High School and I take a chemistry class every Thursday night. I really enjoy the class, and I'm performing very well. I've been answering questions, contributing with even more concepts like quantum mechanics (exaggeration, slightly), and asking my teacher fairly...- ShiningLegend
