Hello team,
I'm looking for good science-centric search engines and the like. I always come up short when looking for technical information on the general search engines.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Specifically today, water and solvent contact angles on various materials.
Thankyou for your help.

That's fascinating! I'd ever heard of the Casimir force before!

I'm really into Atoms at the moment.

So what kind of particles are these 'virtual particles'? |

All the regular kinds. They just exist for very short time periods. And have never been directly detected. But explain many real things.

Should this not be in Have Your Say?

Possibly. But then we should move the Space thread there as well. Alternatively we could move the animal thread out of 'HYS'.
Or merge all three.

I've been there! Amazing place. Every bit as impressive as the larger Pompeii.

Reading a lot about the Speed of Light... how it's the speed limit not just because the photons have no mass and that is the speed they go, but also due to the causality problems of traveling faster than the speed of light.

I've read the report a couple of times now, and still only understand a bit of it. But delving into the depths of how the Universe is constructed always fills me with wonder.

Catching up with some recent recordings, watching the Tomorrow's World Live special. Brilliant. Just brilliant. Very bizarre mixture of nostalgia and the future. TV presented in a way it just isn't made these days and a reminder of why Tomorrow's World was so good.

True, but when confronted with problems they tend to throw some Science* at it to immediately solve the problem. See for example our Track and Trace app..
*By Science we mean a personal chum who successfully dresses up an unproven idea and/or uninvented piece of technology in exchange for oodles of public money.
