Oobleck, named for a gooey substance that fell from the sky in a Dr. Seuss story and ubiquitous at elementary school science fairs, is just a thick solution of cornstarch in water.

Ants are actually liquid-like and solid-like at the same time, according to new research.

We’ve all seen dew droplets form on spider webs. But what if they flung themselves off the strands instead?

Engineers have developed a new material that stays liquid more than 200 degrees Fahrenheit below its expected freezing point, but a light touch can cause it to form yellow crystals that glow under ultraviolet light.
