msslxon Successful second round of fusion experiments with Wendelstein 7-X

Good question - I worked at the ASDEX Upgrade (AUG), also operated by the IPP but a tokamak instead of a stellarator: At AUG similar images and videos [0] are recorded by IR cameras. These cameras require strong cooling and a magnetic / electric shielding as described in [1]. Per plasma discharge (~10s) around ~8GB of video data is recorded. There are also fast frame cameras for dust tracking [2] and similar things. I assume the same techniques are applied at Wendelstein.

msslxon Mathematicians confirm the possibility of data transfer via gravitational waves

The 3+1 dimensional spacetime is not embedded in a higher dimensional space [1]. If there are additional dimensions, they have to be "rolled up" and tiny.

msslxon Oil droplets guided by pilot waves do not give rise to double-slit interference

At least locally, there are no hidden variables (e.g., in higher dimensional space). You might have a look at Bell's work on hidden-variable theory: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden-variable_theory#Bell%27...
