A bubble filmed at 1000 times slow speed, its amazing. Watch it break into a ring of daughter bubbles........

The obvious question is ---
Does each daughter bubble break into a ring of grand-daughter bubbles? I suppose we need to film it at a million times normal speed to find out.

Why bother filming something so useless and boring?

The physics behind this bursting effect seems to hold true whether the liquid is as thin as water or as thick as heavy oil, suggesting that the researchers have found a universal theory of how bubbles behave when they break. It may prove valuable for controlling industrial processes in which bubble formation can be detrimental.
You would have called the discovery of LASER light useless, as many did in 1949. 60 years later, almost every domestic electronic device relies on the theory. Theres no such thing as 'useless science', joe.

It may prove useful to West Ham ? divide and divide again?
Or maybe not.
I'm getting to like the OP, because on one level, he posts things that are out of the 'box', totally mad ideas, and who thought when electricity or the telephone were invented that that was a good idea? Got electric..nice..now what to do with it? Got a phone...hmm...who do I ring?
On the other level, mad as a bag of monkeys. Raindrops aren't tear shaped when they fall,

That's closer to the truth than you think. When Volta invented the battery, nobody had the slightest idea what to do with it. There was no such thing as an electric circuit so its only use was as a party trick: "Here, put your tongue on these!
"
Voltair didn't invent the battery, the egyptians had them a long time ago..
he re-discovered them maybe is the best you can say.

Well, debatable and hardly proven to say the least. Theres no direct proof the Baghdad Battery WAS a battery at all., its just one of a number of possible uses it might have had.
Whether the Egyptians invented a battery or not, I'm pretty sure Voltaire didn't - though he would have defended to the death your right to mis-spell his name.
the egyptians also invented the electric light..
there are hyroglyphs depicting a glass bulb with a filament, and there are caves with carvings / paintings in them where there is insufficient oxygen to support flaming torches, and no soot residue on the wall from them, meaning that another source of light was needed..

The Egyptians also invented hyperspace travel !!!

even more dubious. The earliest evidence of glassblowing was 1st century BC. Why have we never found the remains of such technology, bearing in mind how keen they were on grave goods.
If some archeologist digs up anything remotely resembling a solenoid, I'll see the ancient Egyptians in a whole new light. Meanwhile, if they find anything that looks like a giant bagel, you can be pretty sure that it's just a giant fossilized bagel
