Pour some milk in a dish (whole milk works best, but honestly, use whatever’s not expired), drop in some food coloring, then touch it with a dish soap-dipped cotton swab. The colors will scatter like ...

NASA is inviting the public to take part in 36 “citizen science” projects that let volunteers contribute to real scientific discoveries.

Geoengineering study led by University of Exeter professor finds five prominent concepts fail to meet climate intervention criteria.

Ice crystals are surprisingly tolerant of defects in their structure. The findings come from the first-ever molecular-resolution observations of nanoscale samples of ice frozen from liquid water.

Ice can dissolve iron minerals more effectively than liquid water, according to a new study from Umeå University. The discovery could help explain why many Arctic rivers are now turning rusty orange ...

But spending time on the ice with people who rely on it for their way of life provides a different perspective.

New research flips a long-held belief that frozen environments slow down chemical reactions and helps explain why Arctic rivers are turning orange. It turns out that ice is actually better than liquid ...

"We found that melting gradually reshapes the ice, which then abruptly rotates or capsizes before settling into a new orientation," said Leif Ristroph, the study's senior author. "This process repeats ...
