FUTURISTIC New Lunar Rover | Astrolab Flex Rover Demo Drive | LSIC Spring Meeting 2024
Astrolab was exhibiting their new FLEX Rover at the Lunar Surface Innovation Consortium Spring Meeting at Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory. This new futuristic lunar rover has electric suspension, turns on a dime, carries two upright astronauts, and holds 15 12U payload bays in the front of the rover. An uncrewed version will be launching via Starship in 2026!
I have been feeding my carnivorous plants fish food just to see what would happen. Turns out they really love it!

Today I discuss some common misconceptions about plasma and go through what actually differentiates plasma from other states of matter. I then share some examples of some natural (and not so natural) plasma.
Also still getting used to the whole, "Being a Youtuber," thing. Sorry for some of the awkwardness in the video!

So, I've decided that in order to enhance my mad scientist reputation I should add some carnivorous plants to my desk. Currently I have a Nepenthes Sanguinea (Pitcher Plant), two Venus Flytraps and an Albino Drosera Capensis (Albino Sundew). So for they have been growing very well!

I give an update on my carnivorous plants and how they survived me being out of the office for the last few months.

What would happen if we detonated the largest nuclear weapon ever created on the Moon? Would the Moon break apart and send tons of debris down to Earth? Would we even notice it? Watch to find out!

Fun with plasma propulsion and a neat discussion of different applications of it, including an atmospheric ion thruster demo!

What does Earth's Magnetosphere look like during a Pole Reversal? How does it affect plasma in space near Earth, and how dos it affect our atmosphere? I use a multifluid magnetohydrodynamic model on three different quadrupole magnetosphere topologies to find out!
This was a talk I did for the AGU fall meeting back in 2021. It is a bit dense, so apologies for that!
