NASA let me test my weird chain theory in space by Steve Mould: YouTube (main video), YouTube (full video call), YouTube (extra experiments) #microgravity

a GIF of astronaut Don Pettit on the International Space Station; there is a loop of chain floating in front of him, and it's rotating and individual segments are following the course of the loop, with the subtle bends in the loop staying stationary; this is stays stable as Don Pettit talks to us through the loop and points things out; friction is causing the loop to slowly become more round, more evident when he tries this with the larger chain at his side

String theory has never looked so cooked, if reality is chain theory
