Before the ensuing sound boom and the inevitable end of hundreds of lives, it pauses a moment to reflect. Death is never easy, even with a heart of circuits. […]
Ferrofluid is an assemblage of magnetic particles engineered at the nanoscale, 100 times smaller than the wavelength of visible light. Although too small to be imaged with microscopes, nano-products harness surprising properties from nanoscale physics for use in the macroscale world.
