Science has allowed for the rapid advancement of technology. We can carry thousands of books in a device as thin as an empty folder. Our screens allow us to see through the eyes of people on the other side of the world. Technology has made conveying information a lot easier, so here are 7 GIFS that allow you to see the true nature of science.
1. Emerging From Pupa
When an insect enters the pupa stage, it essentially goes through a second birth. The original larval structure completely reorganize into the mature adult stage.
2. Ferrofluid
Ferrofluid is a liquid with suspended particles that allow it to interact with magnets. The spikes show where the magnetic field lines are.
3. Shield Volcano Eruption
Shield volcanos are not as exciting or destructive as the traditional conical volcanoes, but some places such as Hawaii allow tourists to get up close because of how controlled shield volcanic eruptions are.
4. Elephant Toothpaste
This reaction is the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen gas. This is normally a slow reaction, but the presence of iodine speeds it up to cause the foam explosion.
5. Electron Microscope Zooming In
The final object at the end of the GIF is a single bacterium cell.
6. Tornado Over Water
When a tornado passes over water, it becomes a waterspout. If you ever hear about raining fish, this is why.
7. The Largest Nuclear Explosion in History
