post neat images you've found online, be it art/photography/typography/maps/your garden. pictures that wouldn't fit any other section.

Somehow the Japanese decided that the masks should have moustaches

For some reason this thread didn't get pulled over at first. The link from Oldpunch just went to General Discussion and I couldn't find anything by searching. Looks like that got fixed now but it definitely wasn't working right in the beginning.
Nuclear pulse testing is done for a variety of reasons, from annual testing for reactor performance or for experiments related to nuclear transients. It's a damn cool thing to watch regardless.

The blue light is actually really interesting and is not just the ionization of the cooling water. It's known as Cherenkov radiation, and it's actually caused when a charged particle in a medium exceeds the speed of light through that medium. I've been trying to get in to see our school's reactor do this test for a while but it's not a very frequent event at all.
The reactor in the video is specially designed for pulse testing and operates at 35,000 MW... for a few milliseconds. For comaprison most continuous operation research reactors are rarely over 20MW, and even the largest power reactors are only about 4500 MW (thermal). For a reactor with a core volume of only a cubic metre or so it's really impressive.

Why the fuck does your school have a nuclear reactor
He means university/college. At my university egnineering is part of the "School of Maths, Engineering and Computer Science".
It's not a very large one. I think it's rated at 10kW max and is purely a research reactor. It's also over 50 years old which is pretty neat.
