And being at a nanotechnology camp we were asked to find ways and relations that us muggles (those who do not have magic capabilities) have with these wizards through innovative technology. One of the more interesting relations the […]
Today we made this really cool ferrofluid. A ferrofluid is a liquid that becomes strongly polarized in a magnetic field. The word itself is sort of explainable; ‘ferrum’ is latin for iron and that word is combined with ‘fluid’. We made this black liquid stuff by mixing some iron stuff with some ammonia stuff and […]
