ME AFTER EVERY EPISODE OF BREAKING BAD
It's all about science, bitch.
Wow, I just love when science is put to practical use!
I love it when people take up Physics concepts and incorporate them into the realms of everyday life.
The Doppler effect (or Doppler shift) is the change in frequency of a wave for an observer moving relative to its source.
It is commonly observed in sound. When a car is approaching you, the pitch (frequency) of the car increases and when it recedes, the pitch decreases. right? This is the Doppler Shift in action.
Or to put it in TBBT verbatim - “ Neeeeoooowwwww!”
The Doppler Shift works with light exactly the same as with sound! Just as sound seems higher or lower in pitch as the object is moving towards or away from you, light appears higher in frequency (color) when the object is moving towards you, and lower in frequency/color when moving away from you. The order of colors/frequency of light that we can see is:
Lower Frequency Higher Frequency
red - orange - yellow - green - blue - violet
So a far away object moving quickly away from you would appear more reddish than if it were standing still. The same object moving quickly towards you would appear more bluish than if it were standing still.

(Hi! I’m still alive, sorry for ghostin ya tumblr. I stopped posting because my reclusive tendencies have gotten really out of control over the past year or so, but I’m trying to take little baby steps to quittin my bullshit so bear with me! Still makin math art like crazy, so I thought I’d start with sendin u this lil ditty I whipped up a couple weeks ago. Plenty more where this came from, I promise!)
I wounder what the gif community could do with such a simple code! :)
Damn, yes, why wouldn’t you! Looks great!
idk, why wouldn’t I make these and post them
Wow, huvudmaskinen får jobba hårt när jag tittar på dessa. Kommer genast till funderingen över hur många varv den innesta behöver snurra för att alla skall vara tillbaka på start igen. Häftigt, ser skevt ut när varannan form är svart som bakgrunden. :) Riktigt bra jobbat med sidan och de du skapat i Geogebra!!
Distorted epicycloids and hypocycloids rolling inside other distorted epicycloids and hypocycloids.

Hahaha, Words like “Grönsakspanik”, “Terrorlugn” and “Gerillabroderi”. WTF is this. :D Im from Sweden and have never heard of those words.. :D
Swedish tabloids have a habit of inventing new compound words which catch your attention and carry a lot of information, but which mostly are just ridiculous, especially out of context. I will translate a few:
pirogtumult - pie riot snösmocka - snow punch skottningshysteri - snow-shoveling mania slipsvåld - tie violence gravidbråkar - pregnant-quarreling älgdrama - moose drama psykchockskrigsattacken - the psychological shock war attack (in the context of ice hockey) bajsplågan - the poop torment vrålonani - roar wank dödskorvar - death sausages
