In a quiet corner of a physics building in Australia, a glass funnel filled with a tar-like substance has been dripping so ...

A team of New York University scientists has created a gear mechanism that relies on fluids to generate rotation. The ...

For decades scientists have been trying to solve Feynman's Sprinkler Problem: How does a sprinkler running in reverse work? Through a series of experiments, a team of mathematicians has figured out ...

Physics works differently to how you think it does. Our researchers and writers have turned their minds inside out compiling this list, so hang onto your perceptions, we’re going in. Grab your copy of ...
