This compilation features five liquid nitrogen experiments that show what extreme cold really does to everyday materials.

For more than a century, schoolbook physics has divided matter into neat categories like solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. A ...

Scientists report the first look at electrons moving in real-time in liquid water; the findings open up a whole new field of experimental physics. In an experiment akin to stop-motion photography, ...

Download the experiment instructions HERE! Let’s learn about the properties of liquids and solids: Solids are not compressible, they’re rigid, they don’t flow, and their particles are packed close ...

A liquid marble is an otherworldly combination of liquid and solid. Shaped like a solid marble but with many properties of a liquid, these strange objects were introduced in a 2001 Nature article and ...
