The list of things people can do with LEGO is literally endless. Case in point: The below experiment centered on the dynamics of dropping LEGO minifigures into a vortex. A vortex itself made ...

Quantized vortices can be generated in classical experiments of liquid helium and ultracold dilute gases to conduct fundamental and comparative studies of different superfluids. In a new report ...

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — We saw young children at Plainfield Child Care in Grand Rapids, but they were amazed at some of the science and weather experiments we did. They all love talking about tornadoes, ...

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Remember the term polar vortex? We have heard about it and felt that bitter cold arctic air during plenty of West Michigan winters, but what is a vortex and how does it work?? We ...
