Sometimes… when you feel it, you just feel it.
The producers of this show definitely missed the star of the show on this one.

Cat’s Eye Nebula

What a beautiful picture!
The Cat’s Eye Nebula (NGC 6543) is a planetary nebula in the constellation of Draco. Structurally, it is one of the most complex nebulae known, with high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope observations revealing remarkable structures such as knots, jets and sinewy arc-like features.
It was discovered by William Herschel on February 15, 1786, and was the first planetary nebula whose spectrum was investigated by the English amateur astronomer William Huggins in 1864.
Modern studies reveal several mysteries. The intricacy of the structure may be caused in part by material ejected from a binary central star, but as yet, there is no direct evidence that the central star has a companion. Also, measurements of chemical abundances reveal a large discrepancy between measurements done by two different methods, the cause of which is uncertain.

Incredibly accurate vid illustrating eCommerce and other functions we take for granted now… only catch is, this video was created 41 years ago!
This is probably one of my favorite clips on this site.
The official blurb:

How to Turn a Sphere Inside Out
March 22nd, 2008

This sphere is made of an abstract elastic material… it can stretch, bend and pass through itself. You cannot rip or punchture this material without destroying it.. AND you cannot crease it or bend it sharply…
So, how do you do it?

What an amazing invention. This thing basically hides a flat screen TV under your bed and when instructed will pull it out, and present the person laying in bed with an up close and personal view.
Super cool!
