Kurt Vonnegut wrote a great sci fi story (Cat's Cradle) about a form of ice he called Ice Nine. It was solid at room temp... but it had a very deadly property. Any liquid water which touched ice nine particles would also freeze into ice nine (at room temperature). The story details the outcome.
-
"water can be magnetized depending on its structure" Well I be damned.
-
Bernard G. Vonnegut, Kurt’s brother, under contract to the DoD, worked to discover other isomers of H2O, it was their hope to pitch it into water, solidify, and cross.
His research was at GE, he got his brother a gig there as a PR flack.
Two novels, Cat’s Cradle and Player Piano directly from his GE experience. -
Petrov is one in a million. If he did not make videos, we would stay stupid. Thanks for explaining it in a way that includes strange computer generated image zoom ins, where ice 18 shows purple silk, and some twisting swirl, which I'm sure applies, but just piles on to the fact that there is more to learn.
-
Ice Nine is real? Holy fuck ...
-
In "The Brothers Vonnegut", I learned Kurt Vonnegut's older brother worked with other forms of ice, to solve plane crashes caused by icing. This work became the basis for Kurt's apocalyptic novel, "Cat's Cradle" in which Ice-9 destroys life on Earth.
-
Water also has a gel phase at standard temperature and pressure. This turns out to be very interesting in biological systems, changing ion solvency - particularly at interfacial surfaces of proteins (see works of GH Pollack and Gilbert Ling).
-
Everyone else is talking about Vonnegut, but I came here for the chill puns.
-
I can honestly say that is the weirdest fact I now know ... Ice 19 is water that's metal..... thx Anton have a great weekend!
-
At age 74 I've outlived my appreciation for the many unique forms of a blizzard.
-
Kurt Vonnegut - "Cat's Cradle"
-
63 and still chuckle when I hear "what's going on inside Uranus".
-
Applause to Anton for consistently publishing videos with interesting scientific information and discoveries.
-
All new to me as an old Australian of 75, Anton! I've signed up and looking forward to more fascinating science videos of yours. Cheers, Geoff. ❤️
-
Metallic water … OK, but crystalline water and amorphous ice blew my mind.
-
One of my buddies and I used to amuse ourselves by freezing ice cubes in liquid nitrogen. When placed in a container of liquid nitrogen (something in the neighborhood of 379 degrees below zero F), ice cubes shrank down into solid little crystals like diamonds. But they didn't melt and turned back into liquid water, they vaporized and completely disappeared.
-
What a "cool" subject! 😊 Humor for the day! Anton always makes me smile!
-
Kurt Vonnegut wrote a novel (Cat's Cradle) with ice-nine, a fictional ice with a higher freezing temperature.
-
Dr. Emoto did research study on frequency, and the correlating geometric snowflake-style, of water. Also Hans Jenny did frequency experiments, with sand on a metal plate, that would make different shapes, for the varying frequencies.
-
About a decade ago during a heavy fog with temps around 4°F I observed rectilinear frost crystals which were like postage stamps but 1/4 the size that were attached to sage stalks along one edge.
