The mysterious isochronous curve 

I was just saying to the wife the other day, “You know what we could really use about now? A demonstration of the unique properties of the isochronous curve.” And whaddaya know, here it is. Saved our marriage.

I don't know how I got here but I'm glad I did.

I’ve missed calm relaxed explaining shows without any hype or screaming or over-the-top nonsense just teach quietly and affectively

Turns out the fastest route between two points isn’t a straight line.It’s an isochronous curve.

anyone with tinnitus fighting thru the video for the knowledge?

I only walk in isochronous paths.

That rusty tin though, back when contents of a show was more important than how its visuals.

Ah, I remember when television used to make you smarter, not dumber. Now we get The Bachelor.

The isochronous curve was also an important discovery for the advance in timekeeping, Christiaan Huygens invented the cycloid pendulum which doesn't simply travel part of a circle but rather travels in an isochronous curve thus keeping the same timing regardless of momentum.

I saw the thumbnail and thought it was a fingerboarding video

It's crazy to think that my dad used to watch this on television when he was a kid back in the 70s. Now I'm in senior year and know why he loved it so much.

Thank you, RU-vid for showing me this. Before this video, I thought my life was a downhill slide. Now I know its on this damn curve.

What a treasure this show is. We need a modern equivalent, would love to see more of these hosts they make everything simple and enjoyable thanks so much 🙏

The way you can cram so much knowledge into such a short period of time is amazing.

I used to love this show when I was a kid. I couldn’t get enough of all the fascinating experiments they did. I’m 55 years old now and work in a call centre so obviously the science bug didn’t hit me hard enough lol

Saw this as a kid on TV.. Still love it..

Loved that show back in the 70's, can still remember the theme music as well.

What I particularly enjoy about the Curiosity Show is the clear way everything is presented without talking down to the audience. Rob and Deane really have a fabulous knack for presenting.

That was pretty awesome. No frills, basic tools. Complexity turned into simplicity

That is why I love the old science tv shows. In Poland we used have a lot of these in National TV back in the day. Easy DIY experiments that made physics and science in generał easy to digest and understand. I do miss these.
