If you’ve ever whacked the bottom of a ketchup bottle to get that tasty tomato goop flowing, you’ve put some serious physics to work. Ketchup is a non-Newtonian fluid. So are toothpaste, yogurt, ...

Explore 25 science experiments that defied the laws of physics, revealing mind-bending phenomena that challenge intuition.

How long does it take for the last drop of milk or oil to drip out of the bottle? US scientists have probed this everyday ...

If you mix cornstarch and water in the right proportions, you get “oobleck”: something that seems not-quite-liquid but also not-quite-solid. Oobleck flows and settles like a liquid when untouched, but ...
