Meet Ice XXI, a newly identified form of ice that can exist at room temperature (albeit very briefly). Creating it is no ...

Researchers have discovered that water, under extreme pressure, can freeze and melt through multiple unexpected pathways, ...

Over the last century, scientists have discovered 20 different crystalline ice phases by varying temperature and pressure.

The crystallization process involves the intricate distortion and rearrangement of the hydrogen-bonded network of water molecules, leading to a variety of ice phases depending on temperature and ...

Learn how the discovery of a new ice phase could open up new frontiers in exploring material phases and how matter behaves in ...

Ice cream comes in many different flavors. But even pure ice, which consists only of water molecules, has been discovered to exist in more than 20 different solid forms or phases that differ in the ...

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS, President Lee Ho Seong) has successfully observed, for the first time, the multiple ...

Picture this: ice that doesn’t melt even when it’s warm. That’s not science fiction anymore — it’s now a science fact.

Shenzhou XXI astronauts, Senior Colonel Zhang Lu (right), Major Wu Fei (center) and Zhang Hongzhang, attend a departure ceremony on Friday at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China.

We usually think of ice as just frozen water. It is simple, solid, and cold. But water is a master of disguise. With just two atoms, hydrogen and oxygen, it can freeze into more than 20 different ...

Soon after crossing the Karman line, at an altitude of 100 kilometers above sea level, which is the start of outer space and the threshold for orbital flight, the Shenzhou XXI spacecraft separated ...

South Korean researchers have discovered a new form of ice, named Ice XXI, which forms at room temperature under extreme pressure. This marks the 21st known ice phase.
