Scientists have discovered that water moving over surfaces generates significantly more electrical charge than previously believed, particularly when it sticks and then slips past tiny obstacles. This ...

The phenomenon of hailstorms in Yogyakarta shows that despite Indonesia being a tropical country, extreme weather like this ...

Researchers in Australia have discovered that water generates an electrical charge up to 10 times greater than previously ...

At first, the photons settle into a state with zero momentum, but as this state 'fills up', pairs of photons begin to spill ...

When a droplet of water falls on a hot pan, it dances across the surface, skimming on a thin layer of steam like a tiny ...

Droplets bouncing off surfaces are an everyday phenomenon, like raindrops bouncing off lotus leaves or water drops sizzling in a hot pan, levitating and sliding around—aka the Leidenfrost effect.

Astronaut Don Pettit, aboard the International Space Station, shared a video showing charged water drops orbiting a knitting needle.

Scientists say hot droplets on cool surfaces show properties similar to the Leidenfrost effect, potentially advancing fire ...

Scientists are exploring a new way to deliver medicine in space using chitosan, a material made from shrimp shells. Chitosan ...

When water falls from a cloud, it is precipitation. Liquid precipitation is rain or freezing rain. If the drops are smaller ...

Transparent aluminum oxide (TAlOx), a real material despite its sci-fi name, is incredibly hard and resistant to scratches, making it perfect for protective coatings on electronics, optical ...
