Bill Glose | 7 comments Randall Munroe has a blog on his website that answers oddball science questions with often ridiculous results: https://what-if.xkcd.com/
For example: What would happen if you continuously rose one foot per second? (You would eventually freeze or asphyxiate depending on your outfit.) Is a machine-gun jet pack possible? (Yes, and he even explains how!)

Cool! It seems like a very unique and interesting website.

Absolutely. Science definitely deserves some coverage. A person could literally post a video clarifying the most obscure and abstract science, but a video of a cat eating chicken could get more "likes." (Not that it's wrong. Entertainment is a great thing, but sometimes, science stuff is only liked by scientists, not by the general community.)
