Hi friends! Emily here. I'm an MIT-engineer turned Science Communicator with a goal to make science and space feel more welcoming to more people.
You may know me as the host of Netflix's Emily's Wonder Lab. I'm also the Emmy-nominated host and Executive Producer of FOX's Xploration Outer Space and a correspondent on Netflix's Bill Nye Saves the World.
I'm an author with 7 published science children's books (and a few more on the way!)
I have 2 million crewmembers (ahem, I mean followers) across TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. I hope you'll join our science-loving crew and come along for ride. You can think of me as your friendly Space Gal. Kind of like your enthusiatically nerdy aunt you go to with all your questions - big and small!
This channel showcases science experiments and other STEM-related content for families.
So whattaya say? Shall we begin?
New videos every Thursday at 12pm PT. See you soon. And as always, stay curious and keep exploring! Emily
I'm a 5th grade science teacher and I've been doing this experiment for years....not ever sure of the amount of H2O to use....Until I found your video. Thanks! Well done! :)
As an ex-RAF ground crew, when we knew there was going to be one of these flights where a civilian is given a back seat, we all knew that the pilot will pull ALL the high g aerobatics he can to deliberately make them puke and pass out. The Blue Angels are known to pull the same trick. I know that an ex F14 RIO called Ward Carrol got a back seat with them and the pilot told him that they were not going the same manoeuvres as they do with civilians because he was going to pass out or puke because he knew how to handle high g aerobatics.
Love your work emily, had to laugh when you were pulling high g's your helmet was coming down on your head , at one point your nose disappeared. I thought if he keeps going she is going to be pulled up into that helmet completely! Lol
I served on a sub and you wouldn't get me in a torpedo tube. I had to crawl in an aux tank and it still bothers me to think about it. You are brave. Great video.
As a former US Navy submariner (USS Plunger SSN-595, USS Shark SSN-591), it was interesting to see modern submarine life. I served before cell phones and personal computers. We would have movie night with watching tapes in criuse mess. Das Boot was our favorite submarine movie. Very realistic for WW2 deisil boats. They surfaced or came to periscope depth not only for fresh air but the deisil engine recharged the batteries that the boat ran off. You did do one thing that I never did, which is crawl to the end of the torpedo tube. Great video!! Thank you, and it brought back a lot of memories. The crew from my boat (what we call submarines), which was decommissioned in 1989 or 90, still have reunions every few years.
I spent 3 years on a submarine and watch many videos about submarines. This was far the best one I have ever watched. Your enthusiasm was great. I think they got one on you when they had you go in the torpedo tube twice! I never did that.
Good video... I'm sure a few things are different since I last set foot on board a boat in 1989. The only thing I would challenge is the statement that submarines like to and spend most of their time on the surface. It was probably just the nature of the Groton to New Jersey trip that kept you mostly on the surface. Of our underway time, only what was necessary was surface time. Our job is to be a silent, invisible, deadly threat. And, there's no boat worse on the surface than a round bottom boat.
I doubt any of these guys has seen "Das Boot." Describing why would give away too many spoilers in this ultra-realistic movie about life in a WWII Kreigsmarine U-boat.
A thoroughly enjoyable video - thanks Ms Calandrelli and crew of the USS Oregon. BTW, although an Australian, I happened to be born in Oregon. And, hopefully, if AUKUS continues Australia may eventually have Virginia class subs...
