👁Life cycle of a cell phone - Kim Preshoff
‌
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣As of 2018, there are around 2.5 billion smartphone users in the world.

How did this precious cache get into our phones--and can we reclaim it? Kim Preshoff investigates the sustainability of phone production.

👁How to take a picture of a black hole
‌
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👣At the heart of the Milky Way, there's a supermassive black hole that feeds off a spinning disk of hot gas, sucking up anything that ventures too close -- even light. We can't see it, but its event horizon casts a shadow, and an image of that shadow could help answer some important questions about the universe. Scientists used to think that making such an image would require a telescope the size of Earth -- until Katie Bouman and a team of astronomers came up with a clever alternative. Bouman explains how we can take a picture of the ultimate dark using the Event Horizon Telescope.

👁What is metallic glass? - Ashwini Bharathula
‌
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English

Ashwini Bharathula discusses the future of metallic glass.

👁What your breath could reveal about your health
‌
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English

👣There's no better way to stop a disease than to catch and treat it early, before symptoms occur. That's the whole point of medical screening techniques like radiography, MRIs and blood tests. But there's one medium with overlooked potential for medical analysis: your breath. Technologist Julian Burschka shares the latest in the science of breath analysis -- the screening of the volatile organic compounds in your exhaled breath -- and how it could be used as a powerful tool to detect, predict and ultimately prevent disease.

🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
