This would be much better if you used a home made set up rather than the MIT lab. I showed wave particle theory to my 9 year old using a single slit experiment and glow in the dark paint and different color laser pointers and it got her very enthused.
New question, Why is there a bright outline around a shadow? Like for instance when im walking down the street at night, and my shadow from the street lamps has a visible halo around it.
I think it is possible, you should see a bright annuls around the moon, but maybe its intensity is low, I need to calculate the diameter of the spot (2.44 LAMBDA z /d) LAMBDA = wavelenght, 0.5 micrometer, z = distance moon-earth, d=diameter of the moon.Less than 1mm I guess. And you must be centered at the corresponding region. www.sedoptica.es/Menu_Volumenes/Pdfs/274.pdf
idk, still not convinced...seems sophistry to me...i mean, we all know that this doesnt happen in real life...there must be some houdinian trick in this
Why is he wrong? After searching the Poisson spot for about 2 hours I haven't found any failed attempts under these conditions. are you saying that light is not a wave? or that the experiment has a fatal error? if either please elaborate.
Great explanation! This concept can also be used to explain the single slit diffraction pattern, involving Maxwell's theory of course.
Unfortunately the bright spot is hard to see. Besides that: great video, thanks!

Great tight interesting presentation
Great video I kind of picture light similar to water affected by gravity.

Wouldn't people in the exact middle of the moon's shadow during a solar eclipse see the sun, then? That doesn't make sense to me
Remember the light of the sun isnt coherent wich means that it isn't in phase and isn¿t monocromatic
***** I dont know what you are saying Young and Arago had to made incoherent light coherent with the help of small apertures
Yes. The fact that it doesn't should tell ya something about the current heliocentric model in general. It being false.

Right off the bat the sun's light is not a point source, secondly the moon is nowhere near a perfect sphere.
nice job explaining it
Appreciate this a lot thanks!
Anyone know what the intensity of the laser is in this video?
Are those safety goggles specific for lasers? They seem to be “regular” without any ND protection. That would defeat the purpose of wearing them.
Isn't that veritasium?
Is the moon poison spot? You guys got me thinking pretty good🤪 Clearly the Egyptian pyramids and Nicola Tesla were experimenting with this

ye ol' dumbo
it works in real life its just really hard to detect because of so many light sources
You should use a disc, rather than a sphere. Arago did it with a disc, why to employ a sphere? (maybe you do not read French).
You're a flat earther... aren't you?
It works on that too. Linear
youre both wrong FAIL
Theoria Apophasis good point

look, a looney on youtube.
