Inside the World's Largest Science Experiment

What is it all for?          Here let me explain.


Hypothetically!!!  Hypothetically!!, if you were to do this at home....well actually I would recommend it.
Take two old junkyard CRT's...."televisions"  and place them with the picture tubes a little tiny distance from each other.
Now turn the lights and turn both stinky old TV on.


Tune both TVs to an empty space in the tuning...so they are only receiving background static.


Hypothetically!!!! (If your not one of those calculus students who corrected the grade curve by weeding out the rest of the class.)
Hypothetically!!! Because the two focused electron beams have the same polarity charge but also have momentum they will not steer away from each other and the effect will INSTEAD BE STOPPED by the glass picture tube and the Faraday cage enclosed within.


I say "Hypothetically" only because you haven't yet taken the two televisions apart and adjusted the circuitry to where the focusing magnets will no longer cause the beams of electrons to sweep across the screens.  From there, you could just replace the two picture tubes with one sealed glass tube the old TV focusing systems and a vacuum pump.     You still won't manage to prove that two beams of electrons have momentum but by now your mind has probably already gone kaput.


So, what's it all for?   So, the governments can explain why the calculus students who cheated should have jobs.
