Researchers have made the first direct observation of atomic motion in liquid water molecules that have been excited with laser light. Their results reveal effects that could underpin the microscopic origin of water’s strange properties. Credit: Greg Stewart/SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory

Water also has an unusually high surface tension, allowing insects to walk on its surface, and a large capacity to store heat, keeping ocean temperatures stable.It also acts as a global heatsink that evens out climate variability.

Reminds me of when a conference of environmental activists a few years ago passed a resolution calling for a ban on the powerful industrial solvent Dihydrogen monoxide. And their type has the gall to try and educate us about “the science”.

I feel like drinking a large glass of ice cold quantum tugs.

Reminds of a guy, in Germany I think, that studied the properties of water in nature. Primarily it’s various vortices and such. Came up with some very interesting devices. Can’t recall his name.
