This was recorded on April 2, 2019 and intended to be the third episode of the FranCast, but I decided not to publish it at the time because it was a downer topic and I wanted the podcast to be completely positive and upbeat - but it is a good installment so I'm publishing it here as it was...

I sure wish they'd put some money and time into getting spectacular launch shots again like they did so well in the Apollo and Shuttle days. Bring back high speed film I say! A little love goes a long way for posterity.
Can A Battery Flip Polarity?
It's a weird phenomenon, but in the right circumstances a discharged battery in series with others can reverse it's charge. In fact, here's one now! Enjoy!

Hey Gang!
My failed livestream on the 25th was a perfect ending to a shitberg of a year, but now that the fun is over I am packing up the last of the Lab. I did a final inventory and had to cull out parts and supplies to go to the Vault since we will not have quite the room at ...

This gorgeous candy-colored 16mm reel about Light sources is preserved in luscious Kodachrome and remains a feast for the eyes - even if much of the film is underexposed. I think that in stopping down the daylight shots they were going for the whole 'shadows' thing. Anyway - Enjoy!&nb...

This classic 16mm McGraw-Hill film is sending all kinds of glassware right to the trash, cause with reactions like these you're not doing any washing. This film shows that there really was nothing more exciting than old-school open beaker over Bunsen Burner chemistry. Enjoy!
High Temperature Research (1963)
This amazingly geeky 16mm reel really captures the extremely grounded scientific discipline that defined research laboratories in the mid-20th Century. Research research and more research. I am always stunned when people comment today in the videos I put up that we must have gotten th...
