How to Make a Lava Lamp the Easy Way

Intermolecular polarity is a fancy way of saying "oil and water don't mix". Here, Science Bob explains why, and shows off a fun trick you can do over and over with oil, water, food coloring and alka-seltzer. LINK, Via: Youtube

Underwater Volcanic Eruption On Film

Scientists witnessed the eruption of the deepest underwater volcano and caught the entire event on film for the first time - complete with molten lava and sulfur smoke clouds.

The volcanic eruption was filmed by a U.S. robotic submarine more than 1.2 kilometers (4,000 feet) below the surface of the Pacific Ocean near Samoa during an expedition in May this year. Scientists have been trying for 25 years to witness an underwater volcanic eruption, but this is the first time it has ever been caught on film. LINK: The Presurfer

World's first fire-powered lava lamp

'If you buy my lamps, you won't need to buy drugs' said Edward Craven-Walker, inventor of the lava lamp and founder of lava lamp purveyor Mathmos.

The psychedelic, hypnotic, addictive nature of lava lamps may go some way to explaining why they exploded in the 60s and 70s, and are still popular with students today.

Mathmos' designers have been continuously tweaking and updating the original 1963 lamp, and their latest offering is a world first - a fire-powered lava lamp.

The new Fireflow lava lamp range features two new styles, each in a variety of colours, but instead of plugging them into the mains you simply slot a humble tea light in the bottom and sit back to watch the fluorescent melted wax float around inside.

Both lamps are available from the Mathmos website.

Most Impressive Explosions of Lava

Pillow Lava are formed when lava congeals underwater, forming a solid rock that resembles a fluffy pillow, hence the name pillow lava. When the lava comes into contact with the temperature change, it immediately forms a skin around it, while the inside cools slowly to produce a finer grained structure. LINK

Lava is an underground marvel that is a living, geological remnant from an active earth. They shed light on Earth's past, and they provide us with a path for the future.
