Life may not have begun with a dramatic lightning strike into the ocean but from many smaller "microlightning" exchanges ...

Water is an essential part of life on Earth, and possibly elsewhere – and now it we know it may have formed not long after ...

Forget the dramatic lightning strike – life may have started with countless tiny sparks from crashing water droplets!

Zare’s team demonstrated the existence of micro-lightning, very small electricity discharges that occur between tiny droplets ...

The behavior of water at hydrophobic interfaces has perplexed scientists for over a century, spanning chemistry, biology, ...

Research suggests that microlightning from water droplets, rather than large lightning strikes, may have triggered life’s ...

The M&M coating does not dissolve as well in the sugar solution as it does in plain (fresh) water. Maybe a lot of water molecules are already attracted to sugar molecules in the sugar solution, so ...

When exposed to high temperatures and pressure, water enters a state in which liquid and gas can no longer be distinguished. For a long time, there has been controversy about how this looks like on a ...

We're surrounded by lots and lots of different compounds ... Presenter: So all of these molecules together make water, which is a compound. An atom is the smallest particle of an element.

When soda companies add carbon dioxide gas to a soda mixture, the water is very cold so it can hold a lot of gas. They also use pressure ... Throughout the ice cream there are very tiny ice crystals.

"Microelectric discharges between oppositely charged water microdroplets make all the organic molecules observed previously ... they still carry a lot of energy. The researchers demonstrated ...
