Even the latest HD cameras can\u2019t catch one.<\/p>\n<p>This is why we are here in Buffalo NY on a cold October morning. We\u2019re shooting in Buffalo Central Terminal, a huge abandoned train station with an uncanny similarity to Grand Central in New York City. Deserted since 1979, the vast complex had been left to rot until a committee of locals and rail enthusiasts stepped in to try and save it. Some work has been done but the building is still spookily similar to the day the previous owners left.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve come here to recreate a parallel universe. A universe our contributors, all internationally renowned physicists, promise is out there somewhere. A world where Grand Central Terminal has been abandoned and New York City evacuated.<\/p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http:\/\/channel.nationalgeographic.com\/series\/naked-science\/5145\/Videos\/10192_00#tab-filming-of\">read full story\u2014><\/a>]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Pretty cool stuff.<\/p>\n<p>Alive!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This video is from the National Geographic series \u201cNaked Science\u201d and was shot at the Terminal in 10\/2010.
