I brushed up on my Desmos teacher activity builder skills in Desmos today and made a small intro to Conics.

There's a metal dome over the bar at Kilkenny in Hackeschermarkt that I always wondered if it would act as one of those "two points in an partial ellipsoid can hear each other really well" audio effect...

... and I've finally ended up standing right in that locus for the waiter station across the bar and now the bar staff chitchat is appearing right inside my head.

#Wolfram has a great webpage collection on conic sections.

Thanks! Very beautiful.

Makes me think of the #ConicSections.

Teaching physics, astronomy, or maths (conic sections)? I put together this resource on orbits. What are they? Do they really last forever? (No!) How did we discover orbital motion? How can we get an object into Earth orbit? Do planets really orbit around a stationary star?
