When you splurge on a cocktail in a bar, the drink often comes with a slab of aesthetically pleasing, perfectly clear ice. The stuff looks much fancier than the slightly cloudy ice you get from your home freezer. How do they do this?
Complex fluids, such as polymer melts and concentrated suspensions, are foundational materials for industrial products, including high-strength plastics and optical components. The final performance of these materials depends on their composition and internal microscopic structure. During manufacturing processes, however, fluids are subjected to mechanical forces that introduce internal stress, leading to microscopic structural damage, which in turn affects the material’s functionality.
Separate two superconductors with a thin layer of material and something strange happens.
As the weather grows cold this winter, you may be one of the many Americans pulling their winter jackets out of the closet. Not only can this extra layer keep you warm on a chilly day, but modern winter jackets are also a testament to centuries-old physics and cutting-edge materials science.
Properties that remain unchanged when materials are stretched or bent, which are broadly referred to as topological properties, can contribute to the emergence of unusual physical effects in specific systems.

Astronomers have employed the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS) to observe a mysterious gamma-ray emitting source designated HESS J1857+026. Results of the observational campaign, published December 19 on the pre-print server arXiv, shed more light on the nature of this source.
The moon and sun share top billing in 2026.
NIMS, in joint research with the University of Tokyo, AIST, the University of Osaka, and Tohoku University, have proposed a novel method for actively controlling heat flow in solids by utilizing the transport of magnons—quasiparticles corresponding to the collective motion of spins in a magnetic material—and demonstrated that magnons contribute to heat conduction in a ferromagnetic metal and its junction more significantly than previously believed.
Scientists have developed a new approach to correcting common quantum computing errors, which could pave the way for more reliable systems.
A stable “exceptional fermionic superfluid,” a new quantum phase that intrinsically hosts singularities known as exceptional points, has been discovered by researchers at the Institute of Science Tokyo.
A group of people known as “Flat Earthers” actually believe that the Earth is flat, regardless of what science – or their eyes – tell them. They’ve grown so distrustful of science that they believe that planning and executing an expedition to Antarctica will help them prove that the Earth is indeed flat as they claim. These Flat Earthers believe that Antarctica is indeed where the world “ends.” Apparently, they believe that by sailing around Antarctica, they can prove that the Earth is flat. According to Jay Decasby, a major supporter of the Flat Earth theory:
According to the Flat Earth Society website, Antarctica’s ice shelves – an Ice Wall — are further proof that the Earth is flat because it stops explorers from going any further. The site states:
A variety of Flat Earthers have planned a number of expeditions to various places across the Earth – including a cruise — in an attempt to prove science wrong. While science has been wrong before, in this case, it’s been proven time and again that the Earth is indeed round. This is the reason for the globe used in education systems across the world. Additionally, according to the report, “dozens” of scientific teams have made it across Antarctica since the very first on December 14, 1911. Another group matched the feat a month later. The most recent trek was made by Colin O’Brady, who famously crossed Antarctica in 54 days by himself. This left “proof” for both sides of the debate. Although in the grand scheme of things, while dozens of teams have made the trek, and thousands have gone to Antarctica, very few humans have actually made it to the South Pole in Antarctica. It’s such a treacherous trek that many who have tried have died along the way. One problem with their expedition is the Antarctic Treaty of 1961, which states that no single entity can take possession or lay claim to any part of Antarctica. While it may make an expedition difficult, it apparently bolsters the claim of the Flat Earthers that Antarctica is the edge of the Earth, proving the Earth to be flat. This is because, according to the Flat Earthers, the treaty restricts the type and number of expeditions to the continent to explore the area, even though the treaty allows expeditions the “freedom of scientific investigation.” As for the cruise, there’s one thing extremely awkward about it. The ship’s captain will be using a navigational system based on a round Earth. Every single navigational system works on the FACT that the Earth is round. Period. End of story. So, by embarking on the cruise, what are the Flat Earthers really proving? Logan Paul, a YouTube Mockumentary star who is was filing a YouTube video at the Flat Earth International Conference in Denver, Colorado, talked to Robbie Davidson, and both believe the answer is yes. Logan believes that, as a man of truth, he wants to explore the “facts.” For instance:
Davidson, who is organizing the cruise, believes he has the facts already. While he’s not affiliated with the Flat Earth Society, believes that the Earth is more dome-shaped than flat, rather like a snow globe. He admits that no one is going to “fall off the edge.” Instead, he believes that squishing a dome more accurately represents what the Earth looks like and that this is the reason Antarctica is shaped the way it is at the bottom of the Earth. The real question, especially given the treaty and the fact that their “evidence” all contradicts itself, is: Can Flat Earthers really be considered “scientific” enough to warrant an expedition to the Antarctic? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure: Have your tin foil hats at the ready. A Pennsylvania couple broke away from an alien/reptile, Christianity-based “cult” led by a woman who believed she was the “Daughter of the Most High” and the “granddaughter of King David.” Days later, Barbara H. Rogers, 43, shot her boyfriend, Steven Mineo, 32, in the head. She claims he asked her to pull the trigger. He was overcome with stress as the followers of the self-described prophet, Sherry Shriner, attacked the couple for leaving the group, according to Rogers. Shriner believed that reptilian humans, the New World Order, aliens, the elite, the US government, and NATO were working together to end the world. She warned Mineo that his girlfriend was a “Vampire Witch Reptilian Super Soldier” who was trying to kill her and who would harm him. She claimed that she had seen Roger’s reptilian eyes and teeth appear in her pictures, signs she was possessed and had super strength.
On Monday, Rogers went to court to face murder charges in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania. Police say Rogers shot Mineo in the head at a home near Tobyhanna in July of 2017. According to NJ.com:
In the opening statements of the trial, the prosecution says the night of the shooting, Rogers, and Mineo went to a nearby bar until 2 a.m. She claimed they were not drunk, but later that night they practiced shooting his gun in the woods around their home at his suggestion. Then they went back inside, where Rogers claims Mineo held her hand on a gun as he pointed it at his head. Then she claims he told her to pull the trigger. In a call to 911 at 2:25 a.m. on Saturday, July 15, 2017, Rogers said: “My boyfriend had a gun. He told me to hold it here and press the trigger. Oh my God, he’s dead!”  She claimed she didn’t know the gun was loaded and says it was an accident, but the prosecution says it was murder. Rogers could have avoided killing Mineo. He was shot in the forehead at close range, possibly directly against his head, according to court records. Rogers declined to accept a plea deal from the judge to accept third-degree murder charges.
The couple’s falling out with the Sherry Shriner followers began in April 2017, when Shriner noticed a Facebook post by Rogers. In the post, Rogers talked about having a craving for raw meat and steak tartare. Shriner and her followers immediately saw it as a sign that Rogers was not human but a reptilian alien. “This is the best thing ever with cut up minced garlic,” Rogers wrote. “I just crave raw meat all the time for some reason. I know some are grossed out by it. But its a delicacy for me.” Shriner said she tried to warn Mineo about his girlfriend, but Mineo was offended. After all, he had purchased “orgone” from Shriner, a superpowered substance she claimed would ward off reptilian humans. If Rogers were a reptile, then surely the orgone would have protected him.
The dispute started a rift with the Shriner group, and afterward, Mineo decided he would expose Shriner as a fraud. He uploaded videos to YouTube, in which he claimed: “Sherry Shriner Supporters Are Mentally Sick.” In his final video, four days before his death, Mineo said angry Shriner followers were attacking them. After Mineo’s death, Shriner created a new video explaining she did not believe she was leading a cult, and that she had tried to protect Mineo.
 According to Rogers, her boyfriend believed it was Shriner who was a reptile. “The Defendant explained that the cult centers on ‘Aliens and raptures’. Recently they became upset with Shriver. The victim believed that contrary to her appearance, Shriver was actually ‘reptilian’.” The Daily Beast reported that Mineo was the second person from the cult-like group to be killed at a young age. Five years before Mineo’s death, 22-year-old Kelly Pingilley died after swallowing 30 sleeping pills. Shriner claimed that a “NATO death squad” killed Pingilley because she believed in the god Yahuah.” Pingilley had given up going to college to work as a transcriber for Shriner’s radio show Aliens in the News. After going on expeditions with Shriner to save the world from the New World Order, Pingilley committed suicide at an isolated wildlife park. Hunters found her body the next morning. She wore a pendant of orgone.
Pingilley’s brother said he worried his sister may have suffered from undiagnosed schizophrenia. Shriner said that Kelly had been trying to kill her on orders from the Obama White House, but Kelly had refused to carry out orders.
Steve Mineo posted Shriner’s bizarre eulogy to the Truth Seekers Blog on behalf of Sherry Shriner. A few years later he would denounce the group and end up dead himself. Mineo had been a follower of Shriner since 2004. In January 2018, social media posts suggest that Shriner passed away. Her followers have suggested her death involves conspiracy theories after her work to expose Vice President Pence. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1418448461516219&set=pb.100000532377935.-2207520000.1553620354.&type=3&theater Featured images: Screenshots via Facebook, Reptilian eye via Pixabay |
