It's pretty awesome to see my most of the things I learned in college with my major (Materials Science and Engineering) explained briefly in about 8.5 minutes. A lot of high school kids don't know that you can major in Materials Science Engineering and do cool things like this, so thanks SciShow for spreading the word! :)
Famously, according to Dr. Peter Tsou of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, "you could take a two- or three-bedroom house, insulate it with aerogel, and you could heat the house with a candle. But eventually the house would become too hot."
Wow. Dr Tsou could work in publicity the day aerogel becomes commercialy avaiable for mass use, that's some pretty convincing line there! Only, if the warmth of a candle becomes too much, body heath would probably become a problem long before there is need for candle-heating...
There is no future that we can experience. The only "future" that we can experience is the continuing present forever changing, and the past is but a memory fading away.
But we aren't in the present. All our senses take time to get to our brain, and time to process. Even if it isn't a lot of time, that still means we cannot perceive the present. Idk if that makes ANY sense, but it does to me. xD
***** The present is what we experience. How long it takes for our brain to comprehend and view things is irrelevant :p Even if it might take a few micro or nano seconds before the light hits our eyes or everything we do have some sort of a delay. It's still the present for us. We experience what is going right now. I understand what you mean. But, without a present there can't be a future or past.

Self-healing concrete....? ...I live in Spokane. Have you seen our roads? Have you driven on our roads? Do you know how much we spend on repairing these shitty roads every year with cheap asphalt that dissolves under our de-icer every winter? Summertime is called the season of con-fuck-tion in my group of friends and family because every main road is undergoing repairs, and you can't get anywhere. The roads become a potholed mess less than a year later. It's absurd. I'd sell my soul for self-healing concrete.
+Pearl Carol Pave your intersections and bridges with concrete, and only de-ice those areas, hard curves and braking areas, too. The rest is asphalt that never gets de-iced.
Pearl Carol its 2k17, people are dying in Africa, world war 3 I'll happen any year now, and cyber crime is more dangerous and do-able than ever..... but yeah, those roads gotta be self healing.

If the government invested more money into scientific research, we would be able to quickly find new and innovative ways to produce these super materials and jump start a whole new industrial revolution that would improve everyone's lives. Unfortunately, United States spends only 3% of its federal discretionary budget (less than 1% of total budget) on science. Republicans love talking about how a successful businessman should be in charge of the country (it's all they talked about in the 2012 election), so how about listening to the most successful businessman in the world, Bill Gates, who says the federal government should invest more money in science if it wants to improve the economy.
+The Truthful Channel true, but more money is not a direct garrentee that it will be done much quicker. These things take time, people need to be educated and ideas need to be thought of. But yea, 10% federal spending towards sience would be great (says the biomedical scientist XD)

Great video. Great Great video!!! I just hope I can come in contact with some of those in my life time!! Also, should get back to refresh material properties... ^^'
This video is great. Occasionally I give lectures to High School students about the field of Materials Science and I might add some clips from this video to it (giving credit, of course). Michael is an engaging speaker and they do a great job keeping the content interesting and explaining on a level that most people would get. My suggestions: 1) Add music. Listen to videos by similar channels like Kurzesagt, VSauce, Vertitasium. This video sounds sorta empty because behind the speaking, there's no sound. 2) Don't put up all the words on the video. Your audience will listen to you or they will look at your slides. They can't do both, and by speaking and putting up words at the same time, it's hard for viewers to fully process one or the other, even if they're at the same time. 3) Add in more pictures or animations. For pictures that were not a typical camera (like the Metal Foam), briefly explain how the instrument (SEM, TEM, etc) works so people know the scale of what they're looking at.
To be honest when I watch the informative videos like these I prefer them to not have music because it can be distracting or even ruin the video depending on what they use (I did pause to look at your examples and they are not bad I just dont think its necessary). If the object of the video is to engage and inform then I also disagree with number 2 because some people learn visually versus oral by including both it allows both spectrums to be able to enjoy. I watch a lot of subbed foreign content so I have developed a taste I suppose for text especially for when words or concepts occur that I dont readily understand im able to pause to slowly read over again or google (I also enjoy that the terms or concepts are also highlighted among the text. I do think they need more pictures for the things they discuss but sometimes that may be difficult to find and to much visual may keep the listener from processing and understanding the concept or fact they are discussing. All in all I think they have a pretty solid formula for dispensing the content and may not change due the fact that the viewer may not enjoy the change if they decide to go full nickolodeon. But who knows You never know until you try and considering the stuff talk about is still interesting it might be worth attempting if only to bring more people into the know.
I guess bc he's really intrigued about what he's talking about. and I guess since he's so interested about it, it'd be supposedly more interesting for us. also some people naturally look mean without contorting their face a certain way so that could be it too.
4:07 Diamonds are frequently used in these applications (as an abrasive coating) due to their hardness not their toughness. These are two different (but related) physical properties. Hardness is the ability of a material to resist surface deformation from an external object. Toughness is the ability of a material to resist self-separation due to an external force (like kinetic shock). Diamonds while very hard are not very tough. You can scratch mar the surface of a steel spoon with a diamond by scratching it. But you can shatter I diamond with that same spoon by hitting it. With minerals hardness and toughness tend to be like the two ends of a sliding scale. Usually the tougher a mineral is, the less hard it is and vice versa.
+Brett Harrison Sorry I am usually a lot better about margins and paragraphing. I could have sworn that I did break that paragraph. Apparently I did not. Any way it is fixed now.
I don't like the idea of bacteria in the concrete, obviously it's all theoretical now; but we thought Asbestos was a wonder material. What would be the long-term affects of bacteria-laced concrete?
Asbestos is a material that was...less than thought through. A bacteria that produces limestone and feeds on a specific mineral can't suddenly modify itself to eat humans. Or even make them sick.
ClayXros That's what I was assuming, but what would the bacteria do if you inhaled/ingested some? Hopefully, were more knowledgeable in the near future than we were back in the first century. It took us until the 1900's to figure out the stuff kills us.
You're absolutely right! There is such a thing as "transparent aluminium". It's actually called aluminium oxynitride (ALON). This material is so strong that it's used as antiballistic glass by the military.
It's amazing to see the technological changes that has happen within the last 20 years. What we are witnessing at this very moment in time is the beginning of the exponential advancement of technology.
I can't believe it. Last week I did a presentation about materials, and the slogan was "the future is now" as well; and I do believe that, because graphene will make possible things we've ever seen on movies and books

***** Seeing as how placing solar panels on the ground where they get less than 30% efficiency, and coupling that with thick tempered glass that you can break with a $2 tool from any hardware store and that will get dirty, decreasing the efficiency even more... Yeah, I'd rather have glowing roadways coupled with rooftop solar panels on every residential, commercial and industrial building which would be a fraction of the price of solar roadways, easier to maintain, and far more effective.
+Klaufmann The fact that one project was a shame doesn't mean that the entire concept is a waste. In most urban areas, travel space is the second highest percentage of space taken up (after homes). It's a good idea, if we can find the right materials. It would likely require some type of plastic, but at least it wouldn't emit fossil fuels.
+Lutra Nereis Because the very-early models they're testing right now in the Netherlands use fragile glass... And solar panel efficiency will never improve... And bullet-proof glass and and plastic don't exist... I agree that solar panels on roofs is a good idea, but if we can find the right materials, solar roadways are too.
+Ghostz0r Theoretically, if you managed to make a projector sall enough, you could send imaged directly to the back of the eye. This would require temporary paralaysis, but still.
+renee vinolo Pragmatically it would be extremely difficult to coat all the roadways and highways with the material. Even if it were a one time task we would be talking about tons and tons. Its better off being an optional service for commercial and personal vehicles ala snow tires.
ACM Jan's Entertainment Depository It is a normal sentence. They (the people who made the video) are putting the overuse of a particular word (the word "like") within the graphics of videos now (and not just overusing the word in speech).
An amazing episode! Also, I liked how you muted the audio from the recommended video (the signature music of the channel is much more important to listen than random words at the end of a video).

***** Oh, of course. It would be especially helpful for crumbling foundations or basements with water damage and the like.
+Pearl Carol Pave your intersections and bridges with concrete, and only de-ice those areas, hard curves and braking areas, too. The rest is asphalt that never gets de-iced.
+Pearl Carol aaaaay a fellow Spokanite :), strait out of Spokompton.
Have you been to Montana??
Pearl Carol its 2k17, people are dying in Africa, world war 3 I'll happen any year now, and cyber crime is more dangerous and do-able than ever..... but yeah, those roads gotta be self healing.
What is this door made of? Mythril?
I have a feeling I know both of these materials but I can't put a finger on it
+The Rational Channel Aerogel sandwiched with Al oxynitride mounted on a metal foam frame inside a house made of self healing concrete with embedded fiber optics. Now that's thinking with portals.
+The Rational Channel Runite ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
+Nexus42 Mythril = The Hobbit, Adamantium = Wolverine. There you go.
Space dwarves.
I was actually eating gelatin when they got to the "imagine taking your gelatin and suck all the water out of it" part.
+Ganaram Inukshuk Lemme guess....you tried sucking all the water out of it.
Me too!
Did you try it
My Lord this is a good episode
I just turned 60, I have been involved in fixing electronics since I was 21. I taught myself DOS in the early days. Anyway, I love this channel and I like this guy. Excellent channel... Thank you..
Such a cool video man ! this is excellently prepared and explained !
This dude looks like jimmy neutron discovered hot topic
damnit, now I can't unsee it lol
also, focus on the material, not the hilarious looking hosts :)
I'm starting to believe more and more that I was born into a time when I can see all this cool stuff being made, but not living long enough to enjoy it. Why couldn't I have been born in 2050? Assuming the world gets it's shit together in regards to the environment by then
+Tinseltopia More like year 3000+, buddy. The environmental impact we're making will last far beyond 2050.
I doubt we'll have our shit together by 2050, but I'm just really pessimistic,.
Tinseltopia well you can tell your (possible) children that you were there when it was being made.
Born too early too explore the Universe, born too late to explore the world.
Tinseltopia if tomorrow works better to have a good time with your family and your health
Number 4 should've been called diamondium ;-;
LOVE the reference to my favorite Star Trek of all time. My family calls it "The Search for Whales". So good!
Michael's voice makes this even more interesting and awesome
Could we get a update video on this? It is 6 years old now after all
As much as I would love to have one, I have an odd feeling that invisibility cloaks would make crime rates go up...
Nope, most likely cops will be overpowered that criminals can't do shit. The future of crime is hacking, but one thing is sure to happen... Perversion will increase xD
+Dr Scrubbington I doubt invisibility cloaks make someone invisible to sonar, radar, and infrared or motion detection. A lot of homes already have alarms to detect such things so even with an invisibility cloak you would still shine as bright as day under an infrared cam.
+xm377Moyocoyatzin It's easier to be invisible to infrared than light, so another system has to be used
(cool invention) "This would be really cool on a car." Pretty much this video. 3:23 5:01 5:52
Which is just a good thing.
So im Spanish, studied Humanities since the end on secondary school and currently in the degree of Translation and Interpreting. And I just freaking understood the whole video -- the language challenge and the technical-science-jargon. Indeed I've loved this video.
Good message guys
Thanks for this video! As a materials engineer, I work w/ 2 of these awesome materials: aerogel & metallic glass.
Start with making a plastic that dissolves in salt water within 48 hrs. Thanks from those who don't litter.
How can Scotty be right if Scotty Doesn't Know?
I got you hahaha jeni has a gun u know
i see what you did there
Self healing construction materials? That's fucking genius
Id love to see you guys do a video on aircrete. Its really interesting and the possible applications are huge.
Aerogel can be used in the tire so there is less chance of burst of Tire.
invisibility cloak? dude you just described a small mirror.
Ikr
+tohopes Only if you hang a mirror in front of something you either have a flat mirror with distance to the wall or a mirror that is bulging outward where the hidden object is. This new material can cover an object lying on a flat surface and make you think the surface is still flat.
+Tobias Abel so like vantablack but more vantawhateveryouwant
+tohopes yeah but its an invisibility mirror
nickns732
so is my bathroom mirror, if i hide behind it..
If the government invested more money into scientific research, we would be able to quickly find new and innovative ways to produce these super materials and jump start a whole new industrial revolution that would improve everyone's lives. Unfortunately, United States spends only 3% of its federal discretionary budget (less than 1% of total budget) on science. Republicans love talking about how a successful businessman should be in charge of the country (it's all they talked about in the 2012 election), so how about listening to the most successful businessman in the world, Bill Gates, who says the federal government should invest more money in science if it wants to improve the economy.
+The Truthful Channel true, but more money is not a direct garrentee that it will be done much quicker. These things take time, people need to be educated and ideas need to be thought of. But yea, 10% federal spending towards sience would be great (says the biomedical scientist XD)
+The Truthful Channel that, and we just spend so much money on war. so wasteful
kiwin111 you preach it brother XD
Has anyone tried that fiber optic thing with metal instead of concrete. That would be super cool
Engineering Materials Throwback and Complexification, nice!
I like science explained calmly and quietly, like David Attenborough does - not shouted at me as fast as possible, like this guy.
Lighter stronger car parts 0.O now you got my attention
BUT WHYYYYYYYYU ARE THERE FUTURISTIC MATERIAAAAAAALLLLSSS AROUND MY AAAAANNNNNUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSS!
Wich one?
This video is missing visuals. He talks about transparent metals anf stuff, but we don't see anything. Why don't I just read an article instead of watching this video?
Exactly what I was thinking!
It was still informative and I prerer to listen than read, but you are right Visuals keep attention and aid memory
+PIERRE Doré I wonder if this guy asked himself . Is a tour thru the Louvre describing paintings a good idea.? It sure would cut down on insurance lights . The Museum Oral Descriptor" brought to you by "Abuncha mor ons" for those times when your finances have you tied down at home.
Now, can say that in english?
he does show what hes talking about so... i dont get what youre saying
Super informative. Love the futuristic bent.
He makes science sound so interesting and fascinating. It was already before but more so.
The future is now, thanks to science! Clemontic gear on!
Exactly what I thought
SOLAR FREAKING ALUMINUM OXYNITRIDE ROADWAYS
Golvan The /pol/ Asian A loo min um LOL
Remember this. "The future is Now"
Great video. Great Great video!!! I just hope I can come in contact with some of those in my life time!!
Also, should get back to refresh material properties... ^^'
This video is great. Occasionally I give lectures to High School students about the field of Materials Science and I might add some clips from this video to it (giving credit, of course). Michael is an engaging speaker and they do a great job keeping the content interesting and explaining on a level that most people would get. My suggestions:
1) Add music. Listen to videos by similar channels like Kurzesagt, VSauce, Vertitasium. This video sounds sorta empty because behind the speaking, there's no sound.
2) Don't put up all the words on the video. Your audience will listen to you or they will look at your slides. They can't do both, and by speaking and putting up words at the same time, it's hard for viewers to fully process one or the other, even if they're at the same time.
3) Add in more pictures or animations. For pictures that were not a typical camera (like the Metal Foam), briefly explain how the instrument (SEM, TEM, etc) works so people know the scale of what they're looking at.
To be honest when I watch the informative videos like these I prefer them to not have music because it can be distracting or even ruin the video depending on what they use (I did pause to look at your examples and they are not bad I just dont think its necessary). If the object of the video is to engage and inform then I also disagree with number 2 because some people learn visually versus oral by including both it allows both spectrums to be able to enjoy. I watch a lot of subbed foreign content so I have developed a taste I suppose for text especially for when words or concepts occur that I dont readily understand im able to pause to slowly read over again or google (I also enjoy that the terms or concepts are also highlighted among the text. I do think they need more pictures for the things they discuss but sometimes that may be difficult to find and to much visual may keep the listener from processing and understanding the concept or fact they are discussing. All in all I think they have a pretty solid formula for dispensing the content and may not change due the fact that the viewer may not enjoy the change if they decide to go full nickolodeon. But who knows You never know until you try and considering the stuff talk about is still interesting it might be worth attempting if only to bring more people into the know.

an invisibility cloak that acts like a mirror? you mean... a mirror?
Yeah, but a mirror you could hypothetically make a blanket out of

IceBetweenEyeliner Edge
I guess bc he's really intrigued about what he's talking about. and I guess since he's so interested about it, it'd be supposedly more interesting for us. also some people naturally look mean without contorting their face a certain way so that could be it too.
Love you guys another fantastic. Informative video
Love me some Michael Aranda. Balancing on a board on a ball or not.

Diamonds are frequently used in these applications (as an abrasive coating) due to their hardness not their toughness. These are two different (but related) physical properties. Hardness is the ability of a material to resist surface deformation from an external object. Toughness is the ability of a material to resist self-separation due to an external force (like kinetic shock).
Diamonds while very hard are not very tough. You can scratch mar the surface of a steel spoon with a diamond by scratching it. But you can shatter I diamond with that same spoon by hitting it. With minerals hardness and toughness tend to be like the two ends of a sliding scale. Usually the tougher a mineral is, the less hard it is and vice versa.
Hit the return key every now and then, no one reads a wall of text.
+Brett Harrison Sorry I am usually a lot better about margins and paragraphing. I could have sworn that I did break that paragraph. Apparently I did not. Any way it is fixed now.
I don't like the idea of bacteria in the concrete, obviously it's all theoretical now; but we thought Asbestos was a wonder material. What would be the long-term affects of bacteria-laced concrete?
Asbestos is a material that was...less than thought through. A bacteria that produces limestone and feeds on a specific mineral can't suddenly modify itself to eat humans. Or even make them sick.
ClayXros That's what I was assuming, but what would the bacteria do if you inhaled/ingested some? Hopefully, were more knowledgeable in the near future than we were back in the first century. It took us until the 1900's to figure out the stuff kills us.
They would most likely die as I find it unlikely that our bodies contain the material they digest in order to create limestone.
You obviously don't know much about bacteria to begin with, or people's interaction with concrete.... apparently.
Nate G It's apparently obvious.
I'm pretty sure this guy doesn't blink
Wow. Scary
He is creepy
Go to 1:40. He blinks at 1:45
Actually he blinks at the end of every take.
Oooh. Very Scary!
The self-healing concrete is crazy! Crazy awesome!
You're absolutely right! There is such a thing as "transparent aluminium". It's actually called aluminium oxynitride (ALON). This material is so strong that it's used as antiballistic glass by the military.
Using biology to fix concrete! Amazing :)
maybe Apple should use that transparent aluminum to make a stronger phone screen
Wait a minute .......
What would happen if a boat/ship was completely coated in that hydrophobic water repellent stuff?! Would it float?????
Will it sink without any water touching it?
Y... yes.. it would float.....
It's amazing to see the technological changes that has happen within the last 20 years.
What we are witnessing at this very moment in time is the beginning of the exponential advancement of technology.
I can't believe it. Last week I did a presentation about materials, and the slogan was "the future is now" as well; and I do believe that, because graphene will make possible things we've ever seen on movies and books
Metal form is triggering my Trypophobia!!
same
ikr
Yeah, but this is as triggering as others
it's all in your head, it's not a disease, illness nor problem so it can't be triggered
just google "trypophobia" and browse the pictures for 10 minutes and you'll get over it
+𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝟯𝘇
What do you think phobias are? Ofcourse they are in someones head. And indeed phobias are triggered. And you don't get rid of a psychological disorder by some kind of exposure therapy through images on the internet.
What if they could create metal foam with hydrogen or helium? Could it be zero weight or even lighter than air material to build airships with?
***** For hydrogen each pocket is covered with metal that is unflammable and highly temperature resistant.
***** Well what about graphene foam and helium gas? graphene holds helium.
***** Even better way would be graphene vacuum foam. It would have far better buoyancy than either helium or hydrogen.
You spelt Aluminium wrong.
Well done showing us the advancement made in this world
Oh I know invisibility cloaks exist. Every freaking car I drive has one.
I WANNA LIVE FOREVER!!!

Nice portal reference
Light-transmitting concrete seems like a far better idea than solar roadways.
Solar roadways are a stupid incapable project.
+Xileer Torias If they were possible, sure... if you didn't see the response video from EEV-Blog, you should ;)
***** Seeing as how placing solar panels on the ground where they get less than 30% efficiency, and coupling that with thick tempered glass that you can break with a $2 tool from any hardware store and that will get dirty, decreasing the efficiency even more...
Yeah, I'd rather have glowing roadways coupled with rooftop solar panels on every residential, commercial and industrial building which would be a fraction of the price of solar roadways, easier to maintain, and far more effective.
+Klaufmann
The fact that one project was a shame doesn't mean that the entire concept is a waste. In most urban areas, travel space is the second highest percentage of space taken up (after homes). It's a good idea, if we can find the right materials.
It would likely require some type of plastic, but at least it wouldn't emit fossil fuels.
+Lutra Nereis
Because the very-early models they're testing right now in the Netherlands use fragile glass... And solar panel efficiency will never improve... And bullet-proof glass and and plastic don't exist...
I agree that solar panels on roofs is a good idea, but if we can find the right materials, solar roadways are too.
Fascinating! Thanks for explaining things in easily understandable ways.
You think this is fascinating? I think that's fascinating! 😂
Those are all so cool!
I feel like Vanta black would have been fun to talk about as well.
Actually the future is later...
Is the NerveGear from the anime Sword Art Online possible?
+Ghostz0r
Theoretically, if you managed to make a projector sall enough, you could send imaged directly to the back of the eye. This would require temporary paralaysis, but still.
Instead of ice off of cars, the hydrophobic anything should be on the highway repelling snow and ice
+renee vinolo Pragmatically it would be extremely difficult to coat all the roadways and highways with the material. Even if it were a one time task we would be talking about tons and tons. Its better off being an optional service for commercial and personal vehicles ala snow tires.
not to mention if it was on the road it would get wear down from all the traffic on it and then the material would not work
As an Architect, I found this very interesting. Well done.
Materials Science and Engineering. Wonderful Stuff.
holy shit i didnt understand anything

Jesus. They're putting the overuse of "like" in their graphics now....
ACM Jan's Entertainment Depository
It is a normal sentence.
They (the people who made the video) are putting the overuse of a particular word (the word "like") within the graphics of videos now (and not just overusing the word in speech).
An amazing episode!
Also, I liked how you muted the audio from the recommended video (the signature music of the channel is much more important to listen than random words at the end of a video).
I like this guy, he enunciates very well. Big thing for me.
