The World's Longest-Running Lab Experiment Is Almost 100 Years Old
Sometimes science can be painfully slow. Data comes in dribs and drabs, truth trickles, and veracity proves viscous. The ...
An experiment started in 1927 by Thomas Parnell aimed to prove pitch is a super-viscous fluid. Over 96 years, only nine drops ...
A t the University of Queensland, there is a display containing the longest-running laboratory experiment in the world. It's ...
The experiment began in 1927 at the University of Queensland in Australia, when physicist Thomas Parnell set out to prove a simple point: materials that appear solid can, in fact, be fluids.
The science world might have tapped into something that is literally slower than molasses. Researchers at Ireland's Trinity College set up a camera to capture a pitch drop that was 69 years in the ...
Researchers at Trinity College Dublin have some long awaited test results: After 69 years, they have captured on video a drop of pitch, also known... Pitch-Drop Worse Than Watching Paint Dry RENEE ...
