What could a stadium-sized bowl of peanuts, a magic tennis ball, shrinking elephants, and a crazed hockey player teach us about nanoscience? To find out, come to the building 50 auditorium at 1:30 p.m. on Founders Day to hear noted nanoscientist Ivan Schuller introduce his new movie “When Things Get Small.” His talk, and the short film that follows, will take the audience on a comically corny romp into the real-life quest to create the smallest magnet ever known. Schuller is a UC San Diego physics professor and co-producer of the film. Learn more about Schuller and his film here. View the entire building 50 cinema playlist, and the Founders Day program, here.
Last Call: Time Capsule
Predictions for 2031
Berkeley Lab employees have just two more days to submit their forecasts for what life will be like 25 years from now, to be included in the Founders Day time capsule on Saturday. The predictions can be about science, the Lab community, or the state of the State, Nation or World. Visionaries should send their thoughts in an e-mail here, to arrive no later than 5 p.m. tomorrow. Director Steve Chu, who will seal the capsule, was among the first to submit his views, which can be read here.

Dell Battery Recall
