Remember Ms. Frizzle (from The Magic School Bus)? Now you can be just like her with these science-themed dresses from the fashion company, Shenova. These dresses come in prints that celebrate the Fibonacci sequence, the DNA double-helix, printed circuit boards, retinal cells, the periodic table, aerospace engineering, and space-time warps. ...

The cube shown above, known as the element cube, combines every 'collectible' element on Earth. Regarded by its creator as the world’s largest alloy, the cube is fashioned into a minimalist decorative ornament that could sit on your desk or coffee table! It consists of 62 elements (shown below) and measures 5 cm by 5 cm; it ships with a material analysis report - that presumably indicates what percentage of each metal is contained in the alloy - and offers custom engraving as an extra option.

Cosmologists have formulated a new theory that suggest the universe didn’t start with the Big Bang. They believe the birth of the universe happened after a 4D star collapsed into a black hole and ejected debris, which helps explain why the universe has an almost uniform temperature.

If you've been fortunate enough to fly on an airplane, you've probably noticed that the food tastes a bit strange. It turns out that it's not actually because of the food itself (even if you are sitting in economy) but the reduced atmospheric pressure on board and the dry nose and mouth we get from flying, says an expert.

What would happen if the Moon orbited at the same distance as the International Space Station? An animator has created a mind-blowing video of what it would look like:

The Chernobyl disaster of 1986 was one of the worst man-made disasters of the 20th century. An explosion and fire released large quantities of radioactive particles into the atmosphere, which spread over much of the western USSR and Europe. During the accident itself, 31 people died, and long-term effects such as cancers and deformities are still being accounted for.

An abandoned ferris wheel and buildings reclaimed by nature - the remains of the 1986 Chernobyl disaster show what a city looks like when everyone disappears.

Flames look a little different in space. On Earth, gravity causes a candle flame to be teardrop-shaped, and carries soot to the flame's tip, making it yellow. In microgravity, where these forces are absent, the flame is spherical, soot-free, and blue.

In this amazing video, scientists have sucked the air out of the container and managed to find a pressure/temperature combination that's near the triple point of the fluid, which has been identified as cyclohexane - the triple point is the very precise temperature and pressure at which the three states of matter (solid, liquid and gas) exist in thermodynamic equilibrium.
