LAB CHRONICLE #27
- Experimental method -

Scenario: compare different liquids to explore the #LeidenfrostEffect.

Ambition: clean results, sharp table, publishable conclusions.

Reality: 5 liquids, 3 plates, 0 consistency & lab smells like hot vinegar.

Conclusion: If a liquid surprises you, maybe you’re on the right track.

Absolutely genius : a brilliant experiment recreating the original experiment of Bell for the first telephone communication, based directly on Bell’s 1876 writings and using period-appropriate tools. It’s fascinating to see how the experimentation follows Bell’s own notes and reveals the progression of the scientist’s thinking step by step in his notebooks. Bravo to the @connections for this formidable initiative. Watch the video — super cool! 👌 Can’t wait for part 2 with the skin-tension system in the second device presented! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6irxbKpKzo #HistoryOfTechnology #HistoryOfScience
