AI Thread Summary
The TLC program discussed time travel concepts, particularly focusing on the idea of using bent light beams to send elementary particles back in time. Ronald Mallet's theories were highlighted, suggesting a scientific basis for time travel. Viewers expressed curiosity about the mechanics of this concept and its implications. A reference to a CNN Q&A featuring Mallet was provided for further reading. The discussion emphasizes the intrigue surrounding theoretical physics and time travel possibilities.

Did anybody see it last night? I heard only the last couple minutes of it, but what I did hear, caused a lot of questions.

I saw the part at the end about the time machine. On how if you sent a elementary particle through many bent light beams, you could travel back in time.

How so?

Seems like you’re talking about Ronald Mallet, well he was also on CNN’s Q&A last week.

You can find the transcript of the show at:

Thread 'Why can't Solar panels be hemispherical, or a curved strip type?'

comparing a flat solar panel of area 2π r² and a hemisphere of the same area, the hemispherical solar panel would only occupy the area π r² of while the flat panel would occupy an entire 2π r² of land. wouldn't the hemispherical version have the same area of panel exposed to the sun, occupy less land space and can therefore increase the number of panels one land can have fitted? this would increase the power output proportionally as well. when I searched it up I wasn't satisfied with...
