(Love science like this)
“sweaty robotic finger” indeed
Do none of these "scientists" ever watch horror/sci fi? Everybody knows where this is going...

The places I can think of aren’t suitable for a family friendly forum
Apparently, in the olden days, that used to happen quite a lot in labs. Benchtop centrifuges didn't always have lids, or weren't always used with them. Fluorescent strip lights in the lab and the centrifuge spinning at just the right speed would make it look stationary.....
Goodbye fingertips!
I still have all my fingers because my benchtop microfuge has a lid, I'm rubbish / too lazy to balance it properly so it usually rattles around the bench, and I bought it specifically because it has a ring of coloured LED's around the spinny bit when it's switched on.
Safety first kids!
No they obviously don't watch sci-fi. "Skynet is a family of military communications satellites, now operated by Airbus Defence and Space on behalf of the United Kingdom's Ministry of Defence (MoD)."

Should not be anywhere near rotating objects. I'm an Engineer and when I was doing my training I was told that flourescent tubes are banned from Engineering workshops because of the 50Hz flicker which can make a lathe or milling machine appear static!
Didn't they make a whole rabbit years ago now?
