I'd like a pair of them. Maybe it's cause I'm a guy.

They're obviously real...

A great way to study the spherical harmonics of Bessel functions, or the evolution of planetoids.

glad you like it, i thought you guy would appreciate it.
i also found a 2D standing wave demonstration:
The movie

and have a look at this site:

That is way cool.

Don Pettit is one of the astronauts trapped on the space station after the last Shuttle disaster. I worked with his brother until he took early retirement a few years ago.

i don't really agree that that is demonstration of a standing wave
