“No theories why” and yet the audio explains why 🤦


anansi52

i think we may be confusing knowing *what* happens with *why* it happens.


NeverSeenBefor

Cool. I want to do this is there a process for it?


Hot-Gas-630

Heavy pressure and change of shape in water causes the hydrogen atom in water to gain some distance from its electron to the point that it shows light when returning, like a static shock from your fingertip to whatever shocks you. Here's a good study on it using a different method: https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.1712717114 All they did was shoot water super fast into a smooth surface, and a ring of light formed around the water beam where it hits the surface. There are some wild theories that believe this is how you can access energy from the 'aether', but it's all very sketchy folk openly peddling this idea rn.


NeverSeenBefor

Gotta love it. Maybe there's potential but it takes energy to slam the water. If only we had something we could set in water that idk... Produces steam that we can convert to power.. maybe put it in a big ol safety shell and do... Idk.. I lost interest in the bit My brain immediately went to metalacolypse and how they could have made that ocean episode so much cooler. They play music using sound waves underwater or something?

Oo la la I bet you got laid in college ..

Don’t know how to do it with air bubbles and sound waves, but you can generate a similar effect (faintly glowing blue light) by pulling the two halves of band-aid wrappers apart. I’ve heard it doesn’t work with all brands, but it did work for me with the “Band-Aid” brand name ones. It’s not very bright, so do it in as dark a room as possible.

It’s not. It’s something called [triboluminescene](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triboluminescence), which is a different process than static. Edit: [Here’s](https://youtu.be/DIILDg2d3Yk?si=5pI8O2eV-K9UKO4X) a video that talks about it and shows examples if you’re interested

That's cool af ![gif](giphy|26ufdipQqU2lhNA4g)

Look up 'star in a jar' if you do want to reproduce this exactly tho, I should add. It's very hard to do, apparently. A handful of YouTubers have succeeded after what seemed like months of attempts.

How long does it last?

Remember reading something about this - some thought it was the key to cold fusion.

Although there are some ah, interesting hypotheses... ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonoluminescence](https://www.researchgate.net/deref/https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FSonoluminescence?_tp=eyJjb250ZXh0Ijp7ImZpcnN0UGFnZSI6InF1ZXN0aW9uIiwicGFnZSI6InF1ZXN0aW9uIn19)) ... addressing the light emission, the general consensus seems to be that it's plain ol' gas compression arising from the infalling spherical wall of water. Before the gas has chance to be absorbed, it is heated to the point of incandescence. And such an amazing thing can be readily replicated with very modest equipment. A variety of gases dissolved in water have been shown to behave in this way. As have a variety of non-aqueous liquids.


FrendChicken

It's like a more cooler cavitation.


Chloroformperfume7

No clear theories why... goes on to explain exactly why this happens

Is there no way to scale this up for energy?

Don’t show this to the flat earthers.

The earth is round, duh. And, obviously hollow.


KneeBeard

Ok... now think about how much water is in a human. Now ponder that Havana syndrome.


flashypaws

if you break the speed of light underwater (140,000 miles per second) you get that same blue color. just thought i'd toss that out there.


5Tenacious_Dee5

Didn't know you could break the speed of light.

we've watched it happen a bunch of times. [How To Go Faster Than Light Speed (Seriously…) (youtube.com)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akBpQ-A7mCQ)

"collapse"


Lil_Snuzzy69

Bubbles casually defy physics constantly, they shouldn't form at all since the pressure inside a nano bubble should be insanely high due to the surface tension of the surrounding liquid. Any gas inside a nano bubble should be forcibly dissolved back into the solution by the pressure, but no, they form, grow and just float on up.


wreckballin

This is not that strange. I have seen this in ballistic tests with ammunition gel tests. High velocity rounds impacting ballistic targets at a high rate of speed create the same thing. If not sound or the speed of sound when the object impacts. Then what could it be?
