Hubble Observes Rare Jupiter Conjunction

Posted by

Europa, Callisto, and Io, three of Jupiter’s four largest moons, can commonly be seen transiting the face of the giant planet and casting shadows onto its cloud tops. However, seeing three moons transiting the face of Jupiter at the same time is rare, occurring only once or twice a decade.

On Janurary 24th, 2015, the +Hubble Space Telescope  captured a rare look at three of Jupiter’s largest moons zipping across the banded face of the gas giant planet.

American Sniper & the Soldier in American Cinema – Film School’D

Posted by

American Sniper’s been killing it at the box office (HA!) But the American Solider has been killing (and being killed) on screen for decades. Time to take a look back… Get ready to get Film School’D SUBSCRIBE: http://goo.gl/9AGRm

War has been a popular topic for movies for a long time. After all, the source of conflict is built in, and heroes and villains are easy to find when life, country, and freedom are on the line. In the last 40 years, the American Soldier has played every role possible: Hero, villain, anti-hero, victim, clown, dramatic foil… If war is a where a man finds himself, then perhaps war movies are where nations find their collective selves.

How has the American Soldier as a character changed from Patton to Chris Kyle? Does presenting a soldier as damaged threaten our perception of her heroism? What current political ideologies influence filmmakers during times of controversial wars? We’ll answer all this and more. In WAAAAY less time than that Film Studies elective you were considering. You’re welcome.

What did you think? What’s your favorite war movie? What do you think is the truest representation of the American Soldier in film? Have you seen American Sniper, and what did you think of it? Do politics influence your enjoyment of movies? What other topics in filmmaking would you like to se us cover in the next episode of Film School’D?

QI Hosted by Stephen Fry- Thursday Feb 19th 8/7c on BBC America

Posted by

QI- the panel show full of quirky facts in which contestants are rewarded more if their answers are ‘quite interesting!’

Every season is themed around a different letter of the alphabet and each episode has a different theme on which the celebrity guests have to answer questions, avoiding repeating common misconceptions and urban myths. It’s okay to be wrong but don’t be obviously, boringly wrong. BBC AMERICA launches QI Season J with three back-to-back episodes on Thursday, February 19, at 8/7c!

QI celebrity guests include some of Britain’s most eloquent comedians and smartest experts. They include permanent panelist Alan Davies (Jonathan Creek), Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson, comedians Katy Brand, Rob Brydon, Jimmy Carr, Bill Bailey and Flight of the Conchords’ Rhys Darby, as well as Professor Brian Cox (Wonders of the Universe).
