Oh boy I've always wanted to see a livestream of a seemingly solid object!
Jokes aside, this experiment is really interesting

It would be weird if university students weren't protesting something.

There were no interesting big protests when I was in uni. Huge protests the year before I started against some corruption in the student union rep elections, and obviously plenty of times people were angry at one thing or another, but nothing like the full on camping-out protests we've got going on right now.

@Spitzspot yeah I dunno why exactly the Pitch Drop experiment gets the label "longest continually-running experiment". Probably some kind of technicality about what exactly counts as "experiment" and "continually-running". There are some even older than Beal's listed on Wikipedia, depending on how you define it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-term_experiment
