Turning water into ice usually takes a lot of time. Not for this guy though, he magically turns liquid water into frozen ice. It's instantaneous! Seriously, just watch water get poured from the bottle and then freeze immediately. What kind of sorcery is this? Read More >>

Dams are as old as civilisation itself, but it’s only been within the last century that humans harnessed the construction savvy to build structures that could submerge valleys and create lakes. Read More >>

I have so many questions about being able to filter water out of coke. I don't even care why. But does it taste like Coke-flavoured water? Or water-flavoured coke?

Access to steady supplies of clean water is getting more and more difficult in the developing world, especially as demand skyrockets. In response, many countries have turned to the sea for potable fluids but existing reverse osmosis plants rely on complicated processes that are expensive and energy-intensive to operate. Good thing, engineers at Lockheed Martin have just announced a newly-developed salt filter that could reduce desalinisation energy costs by 99 percent. Read More >>

Our favourite mind warping illusionist Brusspup has a slick new trick to wrap your raisin brain around: water flows normally and then BOOM, it warps and twists and bends like you never imagined water could when sound hits it. How does this happen? Read More >>

Lima, Peru, has the unfortunate distinction of being the second largest capital in the world located in a desert. It rarely rains there, and many of the residents are forced to get their water from dirty wells. But on the flipside, the humidity also hovers around 98 percent, so the local University of Engineering and Technology designed a clever billboard that's able to harvest the moisture in the air and turn it into potable water.
